• Support requests for subdivision assumption by ensuring that all commitments of the subdivision agreement related to stormwater infrastructure have been met, all deficiencies have been addressed, and the associated tracking and reporting requirements of the CLI-ECA have been satisfied.
• Updating the stormwater inventory database, collecting data from various sources, and tracking amendments to the CLI-ECA database.
• Responsible for new stormwater practices, emerging requirements, best management industry standards, and practices.
• Support other departments and coordinate updates/amendments to the CLI-ECA and associated Town records.
