VAN DER VAART Secretary TRACY DAVIS Director Subject: Approved Plan Revision Beachwalk Subdivision Stormwater Permit No. SW8 960518 New Hanover County Dear Mr. Bryan: On March 11, 2016, the Wilmington Regional Office received a request to revise the approved plans for Stormwater Management Permit Number SW8 960518. Additional information was received on June 15, 2016 which completed the request. The revisions necessary to bring the system into compliance included mucking out the wet detention pond, maintenance of swales, and piping some swales where access and/or maintenance problems existed. Please reference the revised plans for additional information. It has been determined that a formal permit modification is not required for the proposed changes. We are forwarding you an approved copy of the revised plans for your files. Please add the attached plans to the previously approved plan set. Please be reminded that this permit is effective from the date of issuance until May 21, 2018. In addition, all terms and conditions of the last permit issued on May 21, 2004, and as modified thereafter, shall remain in full force and effect. Please pay special attention to the conditions listed in this permit regarding the Operation and Maintenance of the BMP(s), recordation of deed restrictions, certification of the BMP's, procedures for changing ownership, transferring the permit, and renewing the permit. Failure to establish an adequate system for operation and maintenance of the stormwater management system, to record deed restrictions, to certify the BMP's, to transfer the permit, or to renew the permit, will result in future compliance problems. Please also understand that the approval of this revision to the approved plans for the subject State Stormwater project is done on a case -by -case basis. Any other changes to this project must be approved through this Office prior to construction. The issuance of this plan revision does not preclude the permittee from complying with all other applicable statutes, rules, regulations or ordinances which may have jurisdiction over the proposed activity, and obtaining a permit or approval prior to construction.

Copies of all email correspondence regarding these comments have also been attached for reference. 1. Kure Beach installed drainage piping does not look up-to-date. Weren't you going to have their proposed design changes added with notes from meeting? Reference the previous Sheet C-1, Stormwater Plan-], Concept drawing from meeting. Response: Two copies of revised sheet C-1 showing Kure Beach drainage project designed by others has been included with this submittal of additional information. 2. Are they not going to pipe in the swale at the northwest corner of Pond I? This area had a lot of erosion as I remember. Response: Segment D3 is will not be piped because we do not want to constrict flow between the two ponds or alter the intent of the original permit. The proposed plan include reshaping the existing ditch and providing a rip -rap reinforced channel at the bottom to help prevent erosion. The slopes above the rip -rap will be graded no steeper than 3H:1 V and will be sodded. All work proposed shall be within the limits of the existing 30-ft drainage easement. The Segment D3 and Segment D 1 details have been revised to label the 3H:1 V slopes. 151 Poole Road, Suite 100 • Belville, NC 28451 • TEL: (910)383-1044 • FAX (910)383-1045 www.capefearengineering.com 3. They will need to construct a 6:1 vegetated shelf around the perimeter of the pond. This will help prevent erosion and promote growth of plants. Also, it is needed in order to meet the stormwater rules. Please add vegetated shelf requirements to sheet P-1. Response: We have confirmed that the existing pond shelf is a minimum 6-ft wide and will not need to be altered. We have revised our pond section view to graphically show the existing shelf.

As stated previously, they will need to construct a 6J vegetated shelf around the perimeter of the pond. I believe you were planning to do some restoration work around the perimeter anyway so this will just ensure that it is consistent all the way around. Per the Stormwater Rules, in accordance with NCAC 02H.1008(e)(7) and (9) — The side slopes of the wet detention pond above the permanent pool shall be stabilized with vegetation. The wet pond shall be designed with a vegetated shelf around the perimeter of the basin. The shelf shall be gently sloped (6:1 or flatter) and shall consist of native vegetation. Please specify the native vegetation types to be planted on the vegetated shelf of a wet pond. Recommendations are: a. The landscape plan should specify the type of vegetation for the side slopes and should include a calculation of the square footage of the wet pond shelf area and the minimum number of wetlands plants - 50 plants for every 200 square feet of shelf area. b. Trees should not be planted within 10 feet of inlet or outlet pipes, spillways or flow spreaders. c. Tree species with water -seeking roots such as weeping willows and poplars, should be avoided within 50 feet of pipes or manmade structures. d. Evergreen trees which produce relatively little leaf -fall are preferred in areas draining to detention devices. e. Trees should be set back so that branches do not extend over the permanent pool. I hope this information helps. Please advise if you have any further questions. Steve cstwe-ic Q. %PWAC '.

After reviewing the proposed plans, I have the following comments: 1. Kure Beach installed drainage piping does not look up-to-date. Weren't you going to have their proposed design changes added with notes from meeting? Reference the previous Sheet C-1, Stormwater Plan-1, Concept drawing from meeting. It appears that we submitted an older version of C-1. We will get you a new sheet C-1 showing the revised drainage designed by and to be installed by Kure Beach. Sorry for the confusion. Are they not going to pipe in the swale at the northwest corner of Pond 1? This area had a lot of erosion as I remember. There is some minor erosion in this segment which will be repaired and revegetated as part of the system maintenance. As discussed in the field, the existing drainage pipe from the adjacent Kure Dunes subdivision was installed approximately 6-inches lower than the invert elevation of the pipes crossing Fifth Avenue. Because of this elevation difference, it is our opinion installing a pipe through this segment has the potential to adversely affect drainage from the Kure Dunes project; therefore, we have not proposed piping this segment. 3. They will need to construct a 6:1 vegetated shelf around the perimeter of the pond. This will help prevent erosion and promote growth of plants. Also, it is needed in order to meet the stormwater rules. Please add vegetated shelf requirements to sheet P-1. They will need to construct a 6:1 vegetated shelf around the perimeter of the pond. This will help prevent erosion and promote growth of plants. Also, it is needed in order to meet the stormwater rules. Please add vegetated shelf requirements to sheet P-1. We were under the impression from our previous discussions that since Pond #1 was acting as a large forebay a traditional 6:1 vegetated shelf was not a requirement of the permit for Pond #1. As discussed in the field our plan is to smooth out and clean up the existing shelf around Pond #1 but were not going to try to go in and rebuild the existing pond shelf. Let me know if you have any questions.

This plan revision is being prepared in response to your Notice of Inspection dated February 24, 2016. We trust that submission of this Plan Revision satisfactorily addresses your need for a written Plan of Action by March 29t'. Please let us know if you need anything else in response this Notice of Inspection. The purpose of this plan revision is to reflect as -built conditions of the project's stormwater management system, detail maintenance activities required to correct deficiencies, and to make modifications to the project's collection system to improve accessibility for future pond maintenance and to reduce future maintenance burden within the . Below is a description of the proposed maintenance work and revisions within each area of the stormwater management system. Segment D1 • There is minor erosion within this segment. The proposed plans detail repair of the erosion and revegetation of bare and disturbed areas. • Rip -Rap will be placed to protect the toe of the existing retaining wall next to lot 27. Segment D2 o The existing ditch will be piped and a shallow swale will be graded on top of the new ✓ pipe to continue receiving road drainage. This ditch has been pipe to provide a corridor for maintenance access to Pond #1 and to correct erosion of the existing swale. 151 Poole Road, Suite 100 • Belville, NC 28451 • TEL. (910)383-1044 • FAX (910)383-1045 www.cap efearengineering.cam Pond #1 • Based on survey information, it does not appear that Pond #1 was ever dug to the original design depth. The proposed plan provides details for over excavating Pond #1 to restore the originally permitted design depth. The plan also provides details for repairing erosion and revegetating of bare and disturbed areas. • The proposed plans do not make any changes to the previously permitted pond geometry. Segment D3 • The proposed plans detail repair of existing erosion and to line the bottom of the swale with rip -rap to help minimize future erosion. The areas above the rip -rap lining will be graded at 3:1 slopes and vegetated. Segment D4 • The proposed plan includes the installation of a "stint" pipe to force sediment from the nemendicular swales to accumulate on the outside of the pipe and not impeded flow between ponds # 1 and #2. • The plan also includes repair and revegetation of eroded and disturbed areas. Pond #2 • Based on survey information, it does not appear that Pond #2 was ever dug to the original design depth and that forebays berms were not constructed. The proposed plan provides details for over excavating Pond #2 to restore the originally permitted design depth, and construction of forebay berms. The plan also provides details for repairing erosion and revegetating of bare and disturbed areas. • The proposed plans do not make any changes to the previously permitted pond geomctry or outlet structure configuration. Segment D5 • The existing ditch will be piped and a shallow swale will be graded on top of the new pipe to continue receiving road drainage. In order to connect to the existing brick headwall and four 18-inch pipes discharging from the Pond #2 outlet structure, two Arch pipes will be used, each accepting flow from 2 —18-inch pipes. • At the end of each Arch pipe, there is a riser with open frame and grate set lower than the top of Pond #2 elevation. The purpose of these risers is to provide maintenance access and to allow for emergency overflow during large storm events. • A bulkhead plate will be provided at the end of both Arch pipes to connect to new 24" diameter pipes that will ultimately discharge to the existing Kure Beach drainage system at the back of Lot 58. Settlers Lane o Unpermitted drainage was previously installed by the Town of Kure Beach on Settlers Lane. This drainage bypassed the stormwater treatment system as was in violation of the approved permit. In order to correct the issue, the Town of Kure Beach hired their own engineer to design a piped collection system to connect to the Pond #2 forebay. The design by the Kure Beach engineer have been incorporated by reference into the overall Beachwalk Stormwater Management Plans. 151 Poole Road, Suite 100 • Belville, NC 28451 • TEL: (910)383-1044 • FAX (910)383-1045 www.capefearengineering.cam I trust that the provided information is sufficient for you to review and approve the subject plan revision; however, please let us know if you have any questions or need any additional information.

Lake Blvd. Carolina Beach, NC 28428 Subject: Notice of Inspection — Non Compliant Beachwalk at Kure Beach State Stormwater Management Permit No. SW8 960518 New Hanover County Dear Ms. Snead: Effective August 1, 2013, the State Stormwater program was transferred from the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) to the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR). All previous references to DWQ will remain in older stormwater permits issued prior to August 1, 2013 until they are modified. Please note that this letter references DEMLR as the Division responsible for issuance of the permit. On August 5, 2009, the Governor signed Session Law 2009-406. This law impacted any development approval issued by the former Division of Water Quality under Article 21 of Chapter 143 of the General Statutes, which was current and valid at any point between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2010. The law extended the effective period of any stormwater permit that was set to expire during this time frame to three (3) years from its current expiration date. OnAugust 2, 2010, the Governor signed Session Law 2010-177, which granted an extra year for a total of four (4) years extension. Accordingly, the Division is herewith notifying you that the subject permit is now effective from the date of issuance until May 21, 2018, which includes all available extensions. On February 18, 2016, staff from the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR) inspected Beachwalk Subdivision, located in Kure Beach, New Hanover County, to determine the status of compliance with the State Stormwater Management Permit Number SW8 9605I8 issued on September 9, 1996. DEMLR file review and site inspection revealed that the site is not in compliance with the terms and conditions of this permit. Please find a copy of the completed form entitled "Compliance Inspection Report" attached to this letter, which summarizes the findings of the recent inspection. As indicated in the attached inspection report, the following deficiencies must be resolved: There is significant erosion on all the conveyance channels and around the edge of the pond, as evidenced by sharp dropoffs of a foot or more at the waters edge. Maintenance of the stormwater system is required at this time. All conveyance swales and the pond edges need to be re -graded and re -seeded as necessary to repair erosion. Some areas will require extra grading, riprap, additional piping, or other measures to protect against erosion. In addition, a Plan Revision needs to be submitted in order for us to approve piping in several swales and some other stormwater control measures.

For Pond 1, the depth should 7.5 feet from the permanent pool to the bottom. In a letter from Linda Lewis, dated March 9, 2006, it was stated that the depth of 7.5' was certified by Phil Norris, PE on September 17, 2004. It has now been 12 years so I assume that it needs to be cleaned out again. You will need to survey the bottom depths and advise the conditions. As stated in the permit, the pond needs to be cleaned out when the bottom depth is reduced to a depth of 5.625 feet. The same procedures will be required for Pond 2. Calculate the required depth = distance from permanent pool to bottom. The pond will need to be cleaned out when the sediment reaches 25% of the pool volume or just use 1 foot depth similar to all new permits. At the current time, i don't think I will be able to be onsite Feb.17 or 18. I'll let you know if something changes.

On January 13, 2016 a home inspector whom we engaged advised us that our home is in imminent jeopardy of suffering severe structural damage if the stormwater canal adjoining my property is not re -sloped. Some corner bricks on the canal side of the house have compressed and some have come detached from the structure. The inspector's reports says: "Stress due to deteriorating soils conditions appears to possibly be causing stress to structure at right hand side yard area and back yard area of subject homes brickwork." Additionally the report states, "Recommend a qualified licensed soil engineer evaluate homes[sic] soil conditions and advise client on repairs." Maintenance of the canal is Beachwalk Homeowner's Association's (HOA) responsibility as the stormwater permit holder. The HOA has known for several years from surveys and engineering consultations that the canal slopes are not in compliance with the North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) stormwater permit. The HOA advises that preparations for repair work have been underway to the extent that engineering plans have been developed. However, work has been suspended awaiting information from the Town of Kure Beach's engineer. These are recent events related to this issue and actions that are required for repair work to start: • In August 2015 the HOA's engineer, Cape Fear Engineering, informed DEQ of a potential problem with the Town's installed pipe which directs stormwater into the Beachwalk stormwater system. • DEQ advised the engineer and the HOA Committee that that the Town's pipe must be rerouted from a canal to a settlement pond and that the Town's plan to reroute the pipe be incorporated into the HOA's plan. • October 2015 HOA Board meeting minutes states that the Town was informed of DEQ's requirement in August 2015. • The Town engaged an engineer to develop a plan in October 2015. • In January 2016 the HOA Board was informed that the Town's plan has not yet been provided to the HOA's engineer. • The HOA says no work can proceed until a complete plan is submitted to and approved by DEQ. • According to the HOA, DEQ's approval process may take three to six months. • After DEQ's approval, the HOA's intention is to solicit competitive bids for the repair work; evaluate proposals, select a contractor who must do preparations before starting work. It seems that repair work cannot start anytime within the next eight to ten months. My wife and I are afraid that if this work is delayed much longer our home could suffer severe structural damage that would be expensive to correct. My wife and I request written assurances that engineering, plan submission, plan approval, contractor selection, and start of work can be expedited by all parties so actual repair work can siari by April 15), 2010.

The Town owns the drain pipe, and it is installed on property in Beachwalk over which the Town has an easement. We met with Kure Beach town officials earlier this month to address the issue of relocating the drain pipe to correct the bypassed runoff, and they acknowledged that relocation of the pipe was the Town's responsibility. Beachwalk cannot complete its engineering plan and finalize its application without the Town's cooperation. Fortunately, the Town has been cooperative and agreed to hire an engineer to prepare plans to relocate the pipe. The Town told us that its engineer would contact our engineer, Cape Fear Engineering, so that this final piece of the engineering plan could be completed. However, the Town has been slow to follow up, and we cannot move forward until the Town acts. We anticipate that this will happen very soon, and we would like to begin the maintenance work on our stormwater management system as soon as possible. We will keep you informed as developments occur. Please be patient with us since we did not become aware of the problem until recently, and we cannot control how quickly the Town will provide what we need to bring our engineering plans to completion so that Beachwalk can submit its application to you. In the meantime, we will work diligently with the Town to speed the process along.

I was checking up on the status of this project and came across this email. Since this is a high density permit, you are allowed to pipe the swales in between ponds. However, I believe the swales were designed to hold some of the volume of stormwater. In a redesign, the engineer will need to make sure there is enough volume in the stormwater system to handle the design storm. Can you give me an approximate date when the Plan Revision request will be submitted?

In her e-mail, she requested a meeting with you, our HOA Board of Directors and Larry Sneeden, the HOA's professional engineer. The Board met with Larry yesterday, and he has answered the questions we had. I am sending this e-mail as the Board's representative to tell you that we no longer believe that such an in -person meeting with you will be necessary. The Board is diligently working on plans to address erosion issues in response to your inspection of the Beachwalk stormwater system last year. As noted in Larry's work plan, submitted to you on 6/30/14 and accepted on 7/10/14, the Beachwalk HOA was considering making a request to use an optional "pipe and Swale" design on some or all of the inlet, outlet, and connecting open channels in our stormwater system to address maintenance issues. The Board has completed its due diligence examination of this approach and has concluded that such a design will address our problems without making any fundamental or significant changes to the operation of our stormwater system and will have the added benefit of making it easier to maintain the system in the future. It is the Board's understanding that DENR would accept such a design as a plan revision, rather than a permit modification, if a request for such a revision is submitted. This is a matter of concern for the Board because we are eager to get started on the construction work as soon as possible this spring. i With this in mind, the Board will be asking Larry to submit a plan revision request to you in the near future. We hope that such a design will be quickly approved by DENR so that we can move forward as soon as possible. Please let us know if we can do anything to assist in expediting this matter. -Tom Moffitt, Beachwalk Board of Directors z STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA Department of Environmental and Natural Resources 127 Cardinal Drive Extension Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 (910) 796-7215 ME ACCESS RECORD SECUUN r m ra ua TRYMDATE NAME Cd z r' REPRESENTINGL-- Guidelines for Access: The staff of Wilmbg o Regions!

I believe this plan Is in conformance with our previous discussions about areas of concern and a timetable for repairing the slopes: 1. Toe of Slope Stabilization at Two Ponds: The HOA will stabilize the toe of slope by using sediment from the sediment storage zone in the ponds to reconstruct the slopes and shelf to comply as closely as practicable to the original pond design. Slopes on the pond banks will be a maximum of 3:1. Slopes below normal pool level may be flatter than 3:1 to account for the very fine sands and a tendency to slough at a steeper slope. The vegetated shelf will be planted with appropriate wetland plants. The work will be done in conformance with the existing permit as routine maintenance and it is understood that no permit modifications or certifications will be required. This work will most likely be done during late fall 2014 or winter 2015 and be completed by May 1st, 2015. Establishment of the vegetated shelf will be an on- going effort. 2. Toe of Slope Stabilization at Influent Ditch: Wattles were placed along the toe this spring and permanent stabilization will be included in the work in Item #1, under the same timetable. 3.Optional Piping or Improvements: As previously discussed and agreed, Beachwalk may request a plan revision to pipe or otherwise modify some or all of the inlet, outlet, and connecting open channels. The timing and scope of this work is being considered by the HOA but is not an existing permit compliance issue.

First, DEMLR has extended the deadline for the plan of action to the end of March. They have agreed that the pond is permitted for 90% TSS removal so the outlet channel can be piped if desired. If we desire to pipe any or all of the channels, approval will be via a plan revision instead of a permit modification. Also, they are open to phased repair of the bank erosion with the first phase being the inlet channel into the big pond from the Fifth Street culverts. They are open to us submitting the use of excelsior or coir wattles (long tubes) to be installed at the base of slope at the scarp to reduce erosion. This initial effort would be followed up with a long range plan of action (not detailed plans) to be submitted by June 15` for more extensive measures to be completed over the next two years. Steve seemed to be OK with the wattles as a short-term fix. The wattles will reduce wind and wave action at the toe of slope and discourage any wildlife such as geese, ducks, catfish, and carp that may be feeding on plant roots. They can be carried by hand to the site and installed with wooden stakes, so there is no heavy equipment or disturbance of the banks. Excelsior wattles will have life span of several months and the coir wattles will last 6-12 months. This is a temporary fix but should satisfy the states' concerns in their inspection letter. I recommend you repair both sides of the inlet channel from Fifth Street to the large pond (200') as well as the outlet channel from the big pond to Shell Drive and the pond frontage of Lots 74 & 75 (350'). The cost will be about $4.00/If for excelsior wattles and about $$6.50 for the coir wattles, which gives a project range of about $2000 to $3600. With your approval, I will email Steve Pusey and confirm those items in paragraph 1 above that he agreed to over the phone and request their concurrence with the use of wattles for short-term erosion repair and the phased repair of the banks over a two year period. If they concur via e-mail, i can prepare and submit on your behalf the requested work plan outlining those same items as our action plan. In our telephone conversation, I believe I was able to convince Steve that the erosion along the pond banks and channels (with the exception of the inlet channel) was due to wave and wildlife action, not scour due to flow velocity. He was therefore amenable to reduce the previously discussed three areas of concern to just the entrance channel. I recommend that the HOA add the channe! and banks adjacent to Joe's house to the scope of work because those areas seem to receive an accelerated rate of scour in relation to other properties. We can certainly add additional areas if desired. Please let me know how to proceed. I would like to keep pushing while the state is being amenable to our proposals. Larry Sneeden C.

Wilmington, NC 28405 Dear Mr. Pusey: As a homeowner in Beachwalk, I have a question (request) for you. It was a pleasure meeting with you last week, and I appreciate the time and effort you are taking to help us through our issues. The current time line for repairing the erosion issues on the lots identified by you presents Beachwalk with an internal problem regarding funding. We are currently under governing documents that, according to the HOA attorney, place the cost of repair on the homeowner. There are new documents that place the cost of repair on the HOA. The new documents are already written, about to be reviewed, and will be presented to homeowners for approval, the vote tentatively set for May 1'. To satisfy your office, the board has voted to proceed with the expenditure for repairs from HOA funds, which leaves the board somewhat exposed to legal challenge - a situation no one wants. Since the storm water system is about 14 years old, and the erosion issues minor, are you willing to extend the time line until, say, July I'? This will give the board and the community time to review the documents, vote, and make any last minute corrections. I think it has about a 4-6 week buffer built in for unforeseen problems.

The Board has been working diligently for some time to address the very concerns expressed in your inspection report. Beachwalk has a Stormwater Committee that has been working with C. Lawrence Sneeden, Jr., P.E., of Coastal Stormwater Services, Inc. in Wilmington to develop plans to make necessary repairs to the stormwater system, including repairs to the entrance and exit channels around the stormwater retention ponds and the slopes at the waters edges which were highlighted in the inspection report. The Board also is considering proposals made by several other engineering firms. The Board would like to make the necessary repairs in cooperation with your Department so that the repairs timely meet all of the regulatory requirements for such stormwater management systems. We envision having plans in place and and making the repairs this Spring or Summer. We believe that it would be very helpful if we can meet with you and our engineer at your earliest convenience to get the project started.

Lake Blvd. Carolina Beach, NC 28428 Subject: Notice of Inspection — Non Compliant Beachwalk at Kure Beach Permit No. SW8 960518 New Hanover County To Whom It May Concem: On February 14, 2014, the Wilmington Regional Office of the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR) inspected Beachwalk Subdivision in New Hanover County to determine the status of compliance with the State Stormwater Management Permit Number SW8 960518 issued on September 9, 1996. DEMLR file review and site inspection revealed that the site is not compliant with the terms and conditions of this permit. Please find a copy of the completed form entitled "Compliance Inspection Report" attached to this letter, which summarizes the findings of the recent inspection. As indicated in the attached inspection report, the following deficiencies must be resolved. There is significant erosion at the waters edge on almost all of the conveyance channels and around the stormwater ponds. We believe that erosion will continue to get worse over time, especially in the event of large storms. In order to prevent further property damage by erosion of lots, we recommend taking action now to stabilize the channels and pond slopes. Some measures to be considered in your plan should include riprap, concrete grid pavers, turf reinforcement mat, and retaining walls. As stated in the permit, no homeowner / lot owner / developer shall fill in, alter, or pipe any drainage features shown on the approved plans without submitting and receiving approval of revised plans by the Division. Please inform this Office in writing before March 19, 2014, of the specific actions that will be undertaken and the time frame that will be required to correct the deficiencies, including submittal of revised plans. Failure to provide the requested information, or to respond to this letter by the due date, may initiate enforcement action including the assessment of civil penalties of up to $25,000 per day. If a written plan of action is not submitted to this office by March 19, 2014, then DEMLR staff will re -inspect the site and issue a Notice of Violation if the listed deficiencies have not been addressed. If the project has.changed its name, ownership, or mailing address, it is your responsibility to submit a completed and signed Name/Ownership Change form to DEMLR at least 30 calendar days prior to making the changes. Please include the name, mailing address and phone number of the person or entity that is now responsible for this permit on the Name/Ownership Change form. If you have any questions, please contact me at the Wilmington Regional Office, telephone number (910)- 796-7215 or via email at steven.pusey@ncdenr.gov. Sincerely, Steve G.

This ietter responds to your request that the Board take action concerning Beachwalk's stormwater system. In your letter you state that your property is in jeopardy of sustaining structural damage if Beachwalk's stormwater system is not properly repaired and maintained. You ask the Board to take immediate action to: (1) restore the stormwater system to full compliance with the State stormwater system permit, and (2) enter into a contract by the end of November 2013 to repair the pond and canal and return them to a level recommended by the ECS report. The Board has carefully considered your request and understands your concerns. However, the Board believes that it is diligently working to assure that the stormwater system is in compliance with the State stormwater permit and to avoid harm to homeowners due to operation and maintenance of the system by the HOA. The Stormwater Committee presently is working hard to meet these goals. It is in the process of creating a well thought out plan to correct stormwater system deficiencies. Any plan will entail the expenditure of a substantial amount of money so it must be carefully planned and implemented. It is in the best interest of all of Beachwalk's homeowners to let the Stormwater Committee complete its work and then act to remedy any stormwater system deficiencies based on a well -reasoned plan. The Board concludes that your request is premature. The Board assures you that any problems with the stormwater system will be properly addressed in due course and that the HOA will fulfill its responsibility for maintaining the stormwater system in accordance with the State permit. Finally, the Board believes that It would be counter productive to turn to the State for help at this stage of the process. The Board believes that it is more reasonable to approach the State with a solid plan of action before seeking guidance or assistance relating to the stormwater system. We look forward to receiving recommendations from the Stormwater Committee and moving forward with this plan of action.

Lake Park Blvd. Carolina Beach, NC 28428 Dear Board Members, This letter is to appeal to the Beachwalk Homeowners Association (HOA) Board of Directors to take immediate action to restore the Beachwalk stormwater system to be in compliance with the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) permit issued to the HOA. The stormwater system that boarders our property (Lot 74) has eroded banks and the stormwater has encroached upon and remains on our property. Please find enclosed: A. a copy of the survey report of our property; B. a report from ECS engineering concerning the storm -water system; and C. photos taken on September 19, 2013 showing survey stakes on our property boundary; D. a copy of the Beachwalk plat Map 36 Page 285; the Department of Water Quality permit to Beachwalk Homeowners Association for the Beachwalk stormwater system. The following findings are germane and material to this request. The survey report on my property shows where the the stormwater pond and the drainage canal banks are in relation to our property lines and the extent the pond water is encroaching on our property. The attached photo show the survey stakes in the pond at our property boundaries. The ECS report states that "For slopes steeper than a 2.5H:1 V slope configuration, there is a high probability for failure and should be considered unstable." Also: "Maintenance of the existing above water slopes is recommend including the maintaining of existing vegetation and drainage features." The Beachwalk plat identifies the common areas and "drainage easements". The plat note "9. All common areas and drainage easements are to be maintained by the beachwalk property owners association." and "10. All common area ponds are to be the property of the beachwalk property owners association." The DWQ permit dated May, 21, 2004 states: 1) "... the approved stormwater management plans and specifications and other supporting data as attached and on file with and approved ... and considered a part of this permit." (We consider the Beachwalk plat, which is referenced in the permit, to be included as a stormwater system plan and specification document.) 2) "The permittee shall at all times provide the operation and maintenance necessary to assure that all components [of the system] function at optimum efficiency." 3) The maintenance required includes among other requirements: "mowing and revegetation of side slopes"; and "immediate repair of eroded areas." 4) "holder is responsible for the storm -water system maintenance"; 5) "All stormwater collection and treatment systems must be located in either dedicated common areas or recorded easements." 6) "The following covenants are intended to ensure ongoing compliance with State Stormwater Management Permit ....", and "These covenants are to run with the land and be binding on all persons and parties claiming under them." Based on those ffindings, we conclude that the HOA is responsible for maintaining t1he stormwater system and that the HOA has not fulfilled its responsibility for maintaining the system. Now the condition of the pond and canal boarding our lot are placing our house in jeopardy of having serious structural problems. The HOA's lack of action relative to maintaining the stormwater system has the potential to impose a severe financial burden on us to repair any structural damage. We are asking that the Board take action to let a contract before the end of November 2013 to repair the pond and canal slopes and return them to a level recommended by the ECS report. Failure to take immediate action will force us to consult with DWQ engineers about our options to repair the slopes. We regret having to state this position so forcefully; however this and previous Boards have not performed the maintenance required by the State permit and we must take action to protect our home.

Can you please advise me of the steps I need to take to reapply for our permit, the paper work required and who do I get the needed paper work from. There appears to be two types of pond digs, one to restore the depth to the minimum of the 75% depth and the other that is as built certifying dig. During the renewal process does the ponds require as built certification or does the pond depth must be at the 75% depth level. If you are down in our area we would appreciate some of your time walking around our ponds and explaining the bank instability problem we have run into because homes were allowed to be built too close to the ponds.

In September 2010, Tropical Storm Nicole dumped record amounts of rain in the New Hanover County area. Rainfall totals of approximately 22 inches surpassed those of Hurricane Floyd in 1999. During the early part of the storm, Kure Beach received an estimated 18 inches of rain before the initial rainfall subsided. Throughout this period, the Beachwalk retention pond's performance exceeded our expectations. The pond filled to approximately 0.5 inches above the overflow and never exceeded that level. As a result, there was no flooding of the streets or homes within the Beachwalk community or other communities serviced by the Beachwalk retention pond. During the remainder of the storm, the pond continued processing the rainfall accumulation, never reaching the high level that was attained during the initial 18 inch rainfall. The pond returned to its normal low level 4.5 days after the rainfall stopped. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Henry E.

The lengthy legal process involved the HOA and the former permittee, Robert Weinbach, in regards to allegations by the HOA that the system was not in compliance with its stormwater permit. Subsequent pond depths surveyed on September 4, 2002, by Michael. J. Lawrence, P.L.S., of Hanover Design Services, supported the allegations made by the HOA. The HOA refused to accept the permit until Mr. Weinbach restored the system to design condition. The suit was settled in mediation, in which Mr. Weinbach agreed to pay the HOA $100,000 for the restoration of the system. On September 17, 2004, the Division received the Designer's Certification for the project from Mr. Phil Norris, P.E., Norris Kuske & Tunstall. This Certification was submitted as required by the permit, and includes, among many other items, that the permitted design depth of 7.5' has been provided. At a meeting this morning with Mr. Ed Coleman, attorney for Mr. Weinbach, the design depth has again come into question. Mr. Coleman alleges that only parts of the pond have been restored to the permitted 7.5' design depth, He attempted to obtain the as -built drawing with the design depths that Mr. Norris used to certify the pond, however, Mr. Norris refused to give him the as -built drawing. As indicated in my letter to. Mr. Coleman dated August 30, 2004, and copied to you, the Division has no interest in the money aspect of this situation, If you were able to find someone else to accomplish the same level of work that you were asking of Mr. Weinbach at a cheaper price, then that is your prerogative. However, if the pond was not completely restored to the permitted design depth, then there is a problem. The allegation is that only the outer edges of the pond, as far as the backhoe could reach, were restored to the 7.5' design depth, and that the inner parts of the pond were not touched. >"` Caro1 �' a Jatura!!y North Carolina Division of Water Quality 127 Cardinal Drive Extension Wilmington, NC 28405 Phone (910) 796-7215 Customer Service Wilmington Regional Office Internet: www.ncwatetguality.org Fax (910) 350-2004 1-877-623-6748 An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer— 50% Recycled/10% Post Consumer Paper Mr. Camilletti March 9, 2006 Stormwater Permit No. SW8 960518 The Division is obligated to investigate these allegations, just as it investigated the HOA's allegations against Mr. Weinbach. To clear up this matter quickly, the Division is requesting that a copy of the drawing used by Mr. Norris to certify the pond, be submitted. The drawing should show a broad sampling of elevations at various locations in the pond, including the middle parts of the pond, after the excavation work was completed.

V. LJKAVVCK C77S WILMINGTON, NC 28402 TELEPHONE 910-763-665 FACSIMILE 910-7624687 OF COUNSEL CYRUS D. HOGUE, JR. WILLIAM L. HILL, 11(1937 2001) Thank you for taking the time yesterday to discuss your certification of the retention pond system at the Beachwalk Development at Kure Beach. Frankly, I am not surprised that your client will not authorize you to provide me with the information I requested. For what it is worth, I have enclosed State Stormwater Management Permit No. SW8 960518 ("Permit"). I understand from our conversation yesterday that it is your opinion that the Beachwalk Homeowners Association could simply have removed sediment from one or two areas and still be in compliance with their obligations as set forth in the Permit. I disagree with your opinion. Numbered paragraph 5 of the Permit requires that pond depth must be 7.5 feet in the system at all times. Based on the certified depth survey provided by my client's engineer, a copy of which is enclosed, I find it difficult to believe that the pond depth is at least 7.5 feet if the only work done was by a backhoe operating from the bank of the ponds. Obviously, we can find out the answer to that questions very easily with a cane pole and flat bottom boat. I understand from our conversation that your Certification dated September 16, 2004 was based on, in part, depths that were provided to you by somebody else. As we discussed, I believe the action taken by the Beachwalk Homeowners Association is reprehensible. I will let my client decide if and how he wishes to proceed with exercising the various options he has. This letter serves to put you on notice that the Mr. J. Phillip Norris February 16, 2006 Page 2 documents provided to you by the Beachwalk Homeowners Association and all other material in your file may be relevant and admissible in potential litigation. Therefore, I ask that you preserve all documents in your file. Very truly yours, Vol G.

Maintenance at Beachwalk Stormwater Project No. SW8 960518 New Hanover County Dear Mr. Coleman: Thank you for your recent letters concerning the Beachwalk pond maintenance and sediment removal issues. Based on the allegations in your letter, I will be asking the HOA to provide documentation of the sediment levels, and verification that the system has been restored to design condition via a Designer's Certification to that effect. If the work is completed, then the HOA, by copy of this letter, should consider this a request by the Division of Water Duality to provide said Designer's Certification. The HOA must abide by the terms and conditions in the stormwater permit..' As you are aware, the State does not have the equipment to make exact determinations as to the amount of surface area or the depth of a pond. The State requires that the permittee provide the Designer's Certification and that the maintenance plan be followed, which includes annual checks for sediment accumulation. If a number of years have passed without this routine maintenance being performed, then one can draw the conclusion that sediment accumulation may have occurred in the pond. The degree to which sediment has accumulated can only be determined by going out in a boat and taking depth measurements at various points in the pond. I agree that if 4 reputable companies took depth measurements and all indicated the need for a crane/boom system or dredge barge in order to remove the sediment, then the situation warrants our attention if, as you allege, the HOA was indeed able to remove the necessary accumulated sediment and restore the entire pond's depth to 7.5' by using only a backhoe situated on the bank of the pond. All of us, the HOA and your client, included, have to rely on persons with the proper equipment and expertise, to provide us with the information to determine the extent of the sediment accumulation in the pond. The HOA is free to hire their own professional, however, the HOA will be required to provide documentation of the method used by that professional to determine the sediment level and documentation that the pond's depth has been restored to 7.5 feet. If the documentation cannot be provided, then the State will require the HOA to perform a depth check and to restore the pond to its original design depth.

The State made no representations as to the sediment level, and did not mandate that Mr. Weinbach offer $100,000 to the HOA. He put himself in that position by failing to transfer the ownership of the pond in the manner prescribed in the permit conditions. If Mr. Weinbach feels he was given inaccurate information about the sediment level, then he should. discuss it with the expert who provided the information.

Ross, Jr., Secretary Alan W. Klimek, F.E., Director On August 24, 2004 I inspected your property at 508 Shell Drive @ Beach Walk at Kure Beach. The inspection was at your request to determine if your recent. landscaping was out of compliance with the State Stormwater regulations for Beach Walk @ Kure Beach. I have determined that your landscaping project will not hinder or interfere with the stormwater system. The overall landscaping, including the brick retaining wall is acceptable due to the small scale of the project. This type of landscaping project cannot become a model for homeowners to follow in the future. We don't like to see hardened structures such as retaining walls or rip/rap on pond slopes. Since the amount of retaining wall is so small in comparison to the length of shoreline, we can allow this one project to remain. The rules require vegetation from the permanent pool level up to the temporary pool level, and make no accommodation for retaining walls.

HILL, 11 (1931-2001) ly �,�w �\i Further to my most recent correspondence to you on June 9, 2004, this will confirm that Mr. Weinbach has been advised by a homeowner at Beachwalk that a small amount of sediment was removed from both retention ponds several months ago. According to this homeowner, the sediment was removed by a backhoe that was placed upon the bank's edge at a few locations. As the Beachwalk HOA and Mr. Weinbach/Beachwalk Development, Inc. reached a comprehensive settlement that alleviates Mr. Weinbach's future responsibility for maintaining the ponds, Mr. Weinbach would obviously be upset if he were to learn that the only maintenance that the homeowners were required to do consisted of a relatively small amount of backhoe work along the edge of the ponds. Mr. Weinbach's agreement to pay $100,000.00 to settle all disputes with the HOA was based upon the understanding that sediment would have to be removed to the original design depth in order to comply with the maintenance provisions in the permit. This was apparently the understanding of the HOA throughout negotiations as the HOA initially rejected Mr. Weinbach's $100,000.00 offer and only accepted it after Mr. Weinbach indicated that he was going to do the work himself. If enough sediment was removed by using a backhoe at the bank's edge, then all parties were misled by the four contractors with whom we solicited bids prior to reaching the settlement. In fact, each of the four entities who submitted a bid to remove sediment indicated that a crane/boom system, dredge barge or dike system would need to be implemented in order to remove the required amount of sediment. Ms. Linda Lewis August 9, 2004 Page 2 Experts with whom I have spoken have unanimously opined that it would be impossible to remove the amount of sediment necessary to comply with the maintenance permit by utilizing a backhoe from the bank's edge. I am not privy to any dialogue between the HOA and your office and, therefore, have no way of knowing what has been represented to you with respect to any maintenance that has been performed by the HOA since the settlement. However, if you have received an engineering opinion that the amount of sediment necessary to bring the pond to its original design has been removed, then I suggest that the certification is inaccurate. I am cognizant of the fact that you do not need me or any other lawyer advising you how to do your job and that is certainly not the intent of this correspondence. However, it is extremely important to me personally that the integrity of my advice to one of my better clients not be compromised by the state of North Carolina not requiring the homeowners to act in the same manner that Mr. Weinbach was expected to act when he was responsible under the permit. If possible, I ask that you please let me know whether the HOA has advised you that the pond is now in compliance and if so, the name of the individual or entity that made such representation to your office. Based on the information we have received, it is apparent that the HOA finds this matter to be quite comical. To the contrary, both myself and Mr. Weinbach negotiated at all times in good faith with the HOA. It is my sincere hope that I do not lose respect for my opposing counsel or representatives of the HOA if I were to learn that they negotiated in bad faith or lose confidence in the state of North Carolina if it were to not enforce uniformly the maintenance requirements of the permit.

EDWARD COLEMAN III ATTORNEYS AT LAW 101 SOUTH THIRD STREET WILMINGTON, NC 28401 June 9, 2004 Ms. Linda Lewis North Carolina Division of Water Quality 127 Cardinal Drive Extension Wilmington, NC 28405 RE: Beachwalk at Kure Beach Our File 279-GEC-02 Dear Ms. Lewis: MAILING ADDRESS P.O. DRAWER 2178 WILMINGTON, NC 28402 TELEPHONE 910-763-4565 FACSIMILE 910-762-6687 OF COUNSEL CYRUS D. HOGUE, JR. WILLIAM L. HILL, II (1931-2001) This will confirm that I spoke with Mr. Bob Weinbach earliertoday regarding information that he has learned regarding the remediation work at Beachwalk. As you know, Mr. Weinbach and the Beachwalk Homeowner's Association reached a settlement several weeks ago when Mr. Weinbach paid $100,000.00 for a complete release of any and all claims, known or unknown, between the Beachwalk HOA and Mr. Weinbach individually and his various corporate entities. The premise of Mr. Weinbach's aforementioned settlement with the Beachwalk HOA was based on several factors including, but not limited to, the following: (1) The State of North Carolina advising Mr. Weinbach that he, as Permitee, was responsible for bringing the ponds into compliance, including restoring the ponds to their original design depth; (2) The survey that was performed by Hanover Design Services, Inc. reflecting the amount and areas of sediment build up; and (3) Estimates from four reputable pond remediation companies ranging from $80,000.00 to $525,000.00. Please note that the most reputable company, Retention Pond Services, Inc., bid $160,000.00. According to all of the contractors with whom we spoke, a significant amount of time and resources would need to be utilized in order to remove the sediment necessary to bring the ponds into compliance. Each contractor advised us that it would be impossible to remove the necessary Ms. Linda Lewis June 9, 2004 Page 2 amount of sediment without implementing some type of barge or boom/crane system to remove sediment from the middle areas of the ponds. While I have not been able to confirm the information that we recently received, you should be aware that we have heard that the HOA spent between $10,000.00 and $12,000.00 to have a backhoe sit on the respective banks of both ponds and remove sediment. I am not sure if the ponds have now been certified or if any form of representation has been made to your office that the appropriate amount of sediment has been removed. Based on my conversations with Mr. David Hollis at Hanover Design as well as other engineers and contractors, I find it very difficult to believe that the appropriate amount of sediment could be removed at the appropriate places by simply utilizing a backhoe from the bank of the respective ponds especially when considering the size of each pond. have neither reason to nor an intention to question the manner in which your office carries out its duties. However, given the good faith in which Mr. Weinbach negotiated the settlement with the HOA, i sincerely hope that your office will inspect whatever measurements or certification is or has been submitted by the HOA. As you were advised previously, Mr. Weinbach's initial $100,000.00 offer to settle this lawsuit was rejected after mediation as the full board overrode the conditional acceptance of the $100,000.00 offer by the board members who were present at mediation. I hope that you will accept this correspondence in the spirit within which it is written. My client and I simply request and trust that the Beachwalk HOA will be held to the same standards that Mr. Weinbach has previously been held under the Beachwalk permit. If the Beachwalk HOA has been able to perform the necessary work to comply with the permit and statutory requirements by using a backhoe positioned on the bank of each pond, then I commend their efforts. However, I reiterate that such an effort flies in the face of what I have been unanimously told by the engineers and contractors with whom I have spoken. As always, I sincerely appreciate your cooperation and please call me if you have any questions. Very truly yours, 9WC4W'fl G.
