      (a)      (1)      Prince George's County, Montgomery County, the City of Bowie, the City of Takoma Park, and any person or any municipality may not adopt a stormwater management plan, system, or design, including a capital improvement program for stormwater management:

                  (i)      Unless the stormwater management plan or design is in accordance with the 6-year capital improvement program of the jurisdiction responsible for stormwater management in the affected area and is approved by that jurisdiction; and

                  (ii)      Except for the protection of an individual's home where it has no adverse impact on other properties or stormwater management systems.

            (2)      (i)      If Prince George's County, the City of Bowie, the City of Takoma Park, or Montgomery County prepares a stormwater management plan, system, or design, or if a stormwater management plan, system, or design has been submitted to the City of Bowie, the City of Takoma Park, Montgomery County, or Prince George's County, the city or the county shall submit a copy of the plan, system, or design to the WSSC. After the submission, the WSSC shall have a specified, reasonable time to review and comment on the plan, system, or design to the city or the county to indicate any conflicts in the plan, system, or design with the existing or planned water supply or sanitary sewer systems of the WSSC. The approval by Prince George's County, Montgomery County, the City of Bowie, or the City of Takoma Park shall avoid any of the conflicts identified by the WSSC.

                  (ii)      When the WSSC receives a copy of a plan from the City of Bowie, the WSSC shall promptly provide a copy to the County Council and County Executive of Prince George's County for review and comment.

                  (iii)      When the WSSC receives a copy of a plan from the City of Takoma Park, the WSSC shall promptly provide a copy to the County Council and County Executive of Montgomery County for review and comment.

                  (iv)      When Prince George's County receives a plan that provides for drainage into any City of Bowie storm drain or stormwater management facility or onto any City of Bowie easement, the county shall promptly provide a copy of the plan to the City of Bowie for review and comment.

      (b)      If the WSSC or either county, after reviewing a plan submitted by the City of Bowie, or the City of Takoma Park, advises the city that the WSSC or either county finds that construction in accordance with the plan will cause stormwater runoff problems in the maintenance of existing facilities or construction and maintenance of planned facilities, the City of Bowie or the City of Takoma Park may not authorize the issuance of a permit or authorize construction to begin until the matter is resolved by the parties or by the court.
