Topic 6. Drainage and Topography
March 28, 2019
This Chapter has been revised in its entirety.
a. Grading
The site must be graded so that it
provides positive, rapid drainage away from the perimeter walls of the dwelling, and
prevents ponding of water on the site.
b. Topographic Conditions
The appraiser must report any danger due to topographic conditions, such as mudslides from adjoining properties, falling rocks, or avalanches.
