				  utilization, but not manufacture, of materials and products classified as
				  deflagration, physical and health hazards by the NJ UCC shall only be permitted
				  as an accessory use to the principal use provided the area devoted to such
				  accessory use does not occupy more than 10 percent of the building's floor
				  area.
3. The storage and/or
				  utilization, but not manufacture, of materials and products classified as
				  deflagration or physical hazards by the NJ UCC shall be permitted as a

				  calculations shall be used to determine the sizing of detention facilities, if
				  necessary.

				  system is at or over capacity, or is not analyzed, detention and/or
				  infiltration facilities shall be provided in order to maintain site runoff peak
				  flow at pre-development levels.

				  The size of the drainage area shall include on-site and off-site lands
				  contributing stormwater to the discharge point. Additionally, the
				  pre-development drainage patterns of any off-site contributions shall be
				  maintained unless a compensatory system is provided, which, at a minimum,
				  maintains the pre-development on-site capacity to carry neighboring stormwater
				  runoff peak flow during the 25-year storm.

				  stormwater drainage systems, including stormwater quality measures, shall be
				  provided to ensure proper function and operation of the system and in a manner
				  consistent with N.J.A.C. 7:8, the Stormwater Management Rules. The operation
				  and maintenance manual shall be updated as necessary. Updates shall be provided
