He agreed that the "permited" pipe size needed to be larger and changed it to 15".
I live 2 houses down from this house and the neighborhood plot plan calls for 30" for my lot. The parish inspector told me that a 24" culvert might be approved for my ditch if I got it covered.

Yes, the "common sense" things will definately be covered. I'm not all about pulling things back up to do them all over again because of permit/incorrect issues.
