Any person desiring a drainage permit must file an application with the department on a form provided by the department. If requested by the department or the board, the applicant must provide an engineering analysis showing the downstream impacts of the proposed drainage. The analysis may need to include a determination of the drain's and receiving watercourse's capacities and a volume and timing comparison of predrainage and postdrainage flows. If the application is incomplete or the information is insufficient to enable the director or board to make an informed decision on the application, it will be returned to the applicant for correction.
