All previous references to DWQ will remain in older stormwater permits issued prior to August 1, 2013 until they are modified. Please note that the updated permit or any updated pages to the permit will now reference DEMLR as the Division responsible for issuance of the permit. On August 5, 2009, the Governor signed Session Law 2009-406. This law impacts any development approval issued by the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources under Article 21 of Chapter 143 of the General Statutes, which is current and valid at any point between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2010. The law extends the effective period of any stormwater permit that was set to expire during this time frame up to three (3) years from its current expiration date. On August 2, 2010, the Governor signed Session Law 2010-177, which granted an extra year for an extension of up to four (4) years. On June 21, 2018, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR) received a permit Renewal application for the subject project. The Division is hereby notifying you that permit SW8 021017 has been renewed on June 22, 2018 and to remind you that this permit shall be effective until January 6, 2025, which includes the extensions. For your records, please find enclosed a copy of the updated permit, and a copy of the renewal and form submitted on June 21, 2018. This permit is subject to the conditions and limitations as specified in the updated permit. Please pay special attention to the conditions listed in this permit regarding the Operation and Maintenance of the BMP(s), recordation of deed restrictions, procedures for changes of 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 transfer the permit, or to renew the permit, will result in future compliance problems. If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to request an adjudicatory hearing by filing a written petition with the Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH). The written petition must conform to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and must be filed with the OAH within thirty (30) days of receipt of this permit.

UNCW — THE HUB Stormwater Management Calculations General Description 41 ey` r114)V,?.9 1p$ Located off of Riegel Road between Galloway' and Graham Halls, just east of Brooks Baseball Field on the University of North Carolina at Wilmington's campus, is the proposed project currently known as The Hub. This project consists of the construction of a new two story building to serve the immediate dormitories with dining and convenience store items. Associated with the building is all supporting infrastructure including sidewalk upgrades, fire lane upgrades, the addition of parking spaces and a permeable paver stormwater device for treatment. The Hub will sit on an existing parking lot and the proposed additions will require the removal of significant amounts of untreated impervious. Predevelopment impervious totals as shown in the attached BUA map are 38,009 SF. The proposed development will add to the pre -development total, however greater than the difference is treated. As proposed the project will be a high density project with 43.9% impervious, though 10,624 SF will be treated with the permeable paver system, leaving 31,648 SF to bypass. This is a reduction of 6,361 SF of untreated BUA from pre to post scenarios. The proposed project is located on Hydrologic Soil Group `A' Soils, within the Cape Fear River Basin, with stormwater runoff from the proposed development draining to an UT to Bradley Creek. According to the N.C. Division of Water Quality BasinWide Information Management System (BIMS), Bradley Creek is classified as SC; HQW (Not within 575' of ORW) at this location and the proposed development must meet the coastal rules defined under Session Law 2008-211. These regulations are as follows: Stormwater Management Regulations III. SL2008-211, Section 2b: Requirements for Certain Nonresidential and Residential Development in the Coastal Counties. All nonresidential development activities that occur within the Coastal Counties that will add more than 10,000 square feet of built upon area or that require a Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan, pursuant to G.S. 113A-57 or a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Major Development Permit, pursuant to G.S. 113A-118 and all residential development activities within the Coastal Counties that require a Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan, pursuant to G.S. 113A-57 or a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Major Development Permit, pursuant to G.S.113A-118 shall manage stormwater runoff as provided in this subsection. A development activity or project requires a Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan if the activity or project disturbs one acreor more of land, including an activity or project that disturbs less than one acre of land that is part of a larger common plan of development. Whether an activity or project that disturbs less than one acre of land is part of a larger common plan of development shall be determined in a manner consistent with the memorandum referenced as "Guidance Interpreting Phase 2 Stormwater Requirements" from the Director of the Division of Water Quality of the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to Interested Parties dated 24 July 2006. (3) Other Coastal Development. — Development activities within the Coastal Counties except those areas described in subdivisions (1) and (2) of this subsection shall meet all of the following requirements: b. High Density Option: Higher density developments shall be permitted pursuant to 15A NCAC 02H .1003(d)(2) if the development meets all of the following requirements: 1. The development has a built upon area of greater than twenty four percent (24%). 2. The development uses control systems that are any combination of infiltration systems, wet detention ponds, bioretention systems, constructed stormwater wetlands, Page 6 Session Law 2008-211 SL2008-0211 sand falters, rain barrels, cisterns, rain gardens or alternative stormwater management systems designed in accordance with 15A NCAC 02H.1008. 3. Control systems must be designed to store, control, and treat the stormwater runoff from all surfaces generated by one and one-half inch of rainfall. 4. Stormwater runoff from built upon areas, that is directed to flow through any wetlands shall flow into and through these wetlands at a non -erosive velocity. 5. Requirements for Structural Stormwater Controls. — Structural stormwater controls required under this section shall meet all of the following requirements: a. Remove an eighty-five percent (85%) average annual amount of Total Suspended Solids. b. For detention ponds, draw down the treatment volume no faster than 48 hours, but no slower than 120 hours. c. Discharge the storage volume at a rate equal to or less than the predevelopment discharge rate for the one-year, 24-hour storm. d. Meet the General Engineering Design Criteria set forth in 15A NCAC 02H .1008(c). e. For structural stormwater controls that are required under this section and that require separation from the seasonal high-water table, a minimum separation of two feet is required. Where a separation of two feet from the seasonal highwater table is not practicable, the Division of Water Quality may grant relief from the separation requirement pursuant to the Alternative Design Criteria set out in 15A NCAC 02H .1008(h). No minimum separation from the seasonal highwater table is required for a secondary stormwater best management practice that is used in a series with another stormwater best management practice. Calculation Methodolo�ey 1. Using maps contained within the New Hanover County Soil Survey, the on -site soils were determined to be hydrologic soil group (HSG) `A' Baymeade soils. The permeable pavement will receive a built upon area (BUA) credit of 25%, with drawdown occurring in 5 days or less (based on data provided in a geotechnical report by ECS Carolinas, LLP). 2. The infiltration rate and seasonal high water table of the insitu site soils is from a report prepared by ECS Carolinas, LLP. A copy of this report has been provided in Section 4 of this report. Please note The John R. McAdams Company accepts no responsibility for any information prepared by the geotechnical engineer or its affiliates. 3. Existing topography and cover conditions were taken from a recent survey by The John R. McAdams Company. Sealed by Ronald Frederick and provided in the Construction Drawings as Existing Conditions. 4. The stage -storage functions for the. underdrain system were generated using PondPack and then input into an MS Excel spreadsheet to determine the storage in each of the 2 underdrain pipes up to EL. 43.25. This elevation is greater than any of the outlet structures, but was used to ensure the water surface elevation would never crest the actual pavers. Please note the bypass weir is set at EL. 42.46, just at the computed required water quality (i.e. 1.5-inch) storm event aggregate. When routing the water quality event we see that the maximum water surface elevation is only 42.00, and the 10 Year elevation just crests the bypass weir at 42.67. 5. The storage in the stone subgrade was determined using surfaces and running volumetric calculations in AutoCAD Civil3D. This is described in more detail, with an example, below: a. The volumetric calculations generated from AutoCAD Civil 3D computes the volume in specified increments and is reported as "fill" on each report. For example, for EL. 42.00, the total volume of subgrade is 748.45 cubic feet. This number is a "raw" volume number and is corrected by subtracting out any pipe storage accumulated, then multiplied by the stone void ratio and added back to the accumulated pipe storage for a total adjusted volume. This volume is calculated for each stage and then used as the stage - storage for modeling. Please note this volume is reported as fill in the report because fill would be placed in the subgrade surface up to the specified elevation. The Cut and Net volumes reported are byproducts of the surface creation as the subgrade contains elevations in the field that are higher than the specified stage. 6. Routing results for the water quality and 10 Year storm events for the facility were. calculated using PondPack Version V8i, by Bentley Systems, Inc. 7. in order to accurately represent the water quality runoff volume, rainfall depths were manipulated in Pondpack (assuming an SCS Type III storm distribution) to create the same runoff volume in PondPack with the SCS CN method as was calculated with the simple method found in Chapter 3 of the NCDENR Stormwater BMP Manual. 8. The water quality storage volume is controlled by underdrains connected to a 90 degree elbow -tee turn -up located in JB-100. This structure also serves as the primary bypass for storm events greater than the water quality event using a 3" by 2.0' opening (confirmed with routing) and was designed in accordance with the BMP Manual. Discussion ofPronosed Stormwater Manazement The subgrade and drainage for the proposed permeable paver system is designed in accordance with requirements set bor in the North Carolina BNUP Manual for Permeable Pavement. Based on ECS borings in the location of the project, the required minimum of two feet of separation between the subgrade and SHWT is provided throughout the system. The permeable pavement system has also been designed to treat adjacent roof BUA from The Hub. Here rooftop runoff is collected and is directed into the system via a "rain chain" and inlet. The amount of rooftop area to paver area is less than the required .1:1. All non BUA surfaces adjacent to the paver area have been designed to drain away from the paver system. Pre development conditions onsite contain multiple flow paths and consist of an asphalt parking lot directly drained to the storm sewer and an asphalt fire lane that flows north adjacent to a gravel bike parking area, briefly flowing over grass before entering the storm sewer system. Also onsite is an existing basketball court that sheets flows across the grass field and volleyball court before entering the storm sewer. 4' ✓�►.� Proposed conditions keep similar drainage patterns, but reduce the amount of untreated BUA by Ss� 6,361 SF when compared to pre development conditions. As proposed, the building and permeable paver system are designed to infiltration the required water quality volume. The fire lane addition is collected by curb and directed into the storm sewer (equal to the pre development parking area). The proposed oval sidewalk is allowed to sheet flow through the grassed field before entering the storm drainage system and the proposed parking is allowed to sheet flow through an existing wooded area before eventually finding its way to the storm sewer somewhere offsite. Therefore, impervious surfaces that are bypassed from the permeable paver system are provided equal or better treatment from impervious that existing previously. Discussion ofProposed Erosion Control Proposed erosion and sediment control onsite consists largely of silt fence and inlet protection. Where stockpiles exist two rows of silt fence will be provided. Due to the grade and existing conditions of the site, sediment basins or traps are not needed or practical. The majority of the site is lower than the surrounding terrain and drains into an existing storm network. This network will be modified as part of the proposed construction. Using inlet protection on the existing and proposed storm drainage networks before, during, and after modification is the best way to prevent sediment from entering the system and leaving the site. When storm drainage piping and inlets are to be installed they will be protected at each open end with inlet protection in accordance with the details and project specifications. Silt fence outlets are to be installed in low spots and as the engineer instructs throughout the project, in accordance with the details and project specification manual, to prevent fence failure. Proposed disturbed area is 2.22 acres. Conclusion If the development on this tract is built as proposed within this report, then the applicable requirements will be met with the proposed stormwater management facility. However, modifications to the proposed development may require that this analysis be revised. Some modifications that would require this analysis to be revised include: 1. The proposed_ site impervious surface exceeds the amount accounted for in this report. 2. The post -development watershed breaks change significantly from those used to prepare this report. The above modifications may result in the assumptions within this report becoming invalid. The computations within this report will need to be revisited if any of the above conditions become apparent as development of the proposed site moves forward. 4 MISCELLANEOUS SITE INFORMATION PRECIPITATION DATA 21 SITE SOIL INFORMATION 3 iaEOYECHNICAL ENGINEERING 4 REPORT STORMWATER MANAGEMENT 5 DESIGN CALCULATIONS ffi d a a� o a a v o u n � N 00 'C pU� N ON Cq en a G1 en O O O O O O O O O 00 Mcn O 00 PC1 N Pam. cz C qm �C 9 z irk G P-4 F-� r L U en n�� a, a, O C-4� N �rnr M O M O mM v^ O vn ., y. ci Q• a 00 oo o � 00 N '.

Soils are assigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when the soils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive precipitation from long -duration storms. The soils in the United States are assigned to four groups (A, B, C, and D) and three dual classes (A/D, B/D, and C/D). ThG groups are defined as follows: Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively drained sands or gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water transmission. Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well drained soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture. These soils have a moderate rate of water transmission. Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of water transmission. Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink -swell potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay layer at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious material. These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission. If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D, or CID), the first letter is for drained areas and the second is for undrained areas. Only the soils that in their natural condition are in group D are assigned to dual classes.

At the time of exploration the site consisted of a bituminous asphalt parking lot and was relatively level with elevations ranging from about 44 to 45 feet. ECS understands that a new two-story building will be constructed at the site. 1 he proposed building will have a footprint of approximately 7,500 square feet. The anticipated maximum interior column gravity load is around 175 kips. Site grading information was not available at the time this report was prepared. Approximately 3 inches of asphalt pavement overlying 5 inches of ABC stone was reported by the drillers at the sounding locations. Beneath the surface materials to a depth of about 25 feet, the test soundings typically encountered intermittent layers of medium dense to very dense clean sands (SP). From a depth of 25 feet to a depth of approximately 68 feet, the test sounding S-1 typically encountered intermittent layers of medium dense to dense clean sand (SP). From a depth of 68 feet to a termination depth of approximately 74 feet, the test sounding S-1 typically encountered intermittent layers of loose to medium dense silty, slightly silty, and clean sands (SM, SP-SM, SP) and soft to stiff sandy clay (CL). In summary, the proposed construction can be supported on conventional shallow foundations. For foundations designed in accordance with the recommendations provided in this report, a maximum net allowable soil bearing pressure of 4,000 pounds per square foot (psf) is recommended for use in proportioning shallow foundations. Specific information regarding the subsurface exploration procedures used, the site and subsurface conditions at the time of our exploration, and our conclusions and recommendations concerning the geotechnical design and construction aspects of the project are discussed in detail in the subsequent sections of this report. Please note this Executive Summary is an important part of this report and should be considered a "summary" only. The subsequent sections of this report constitute our findings, conclusions, and recommendations in their entirety. Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 2.0 PROJECT OVERVIEW 2.1 Proiect Information ECS' understanding of the proposed construction is based upon information provided by Mr. Josh Peaks of Tipton Associates. The proposed site is located between Galloway Hall and Graham Hewlett Hall on the UNCW campus in Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina. At the time of exploration the site consisted of a bituminous asphalt parking lot and was relatively level with elevations ranging from about 44 to 45 feet. ECS understands that a new two-story building will be constructed at the site. The proposed building will have a footprint of approximately 7,500 square feet. The anticipated maximum interior column gravity load is around 175 kips. Site grading information was not available at the time this report was prepared. 2.2 Scope of Work The conclusions and recommendations contained in this report are based on the results of: • Two CPT soundings, • One pavement core to check pavement section thickness, • Two hand auger borings to estimate seasonal high water table, • Two infiltration tests to determine in -situ soil permeability rates, and • Engineering analyses of the field findings with respect to the provided project information. 2.3 Purposes of Exploration The purpose of this exploration program was to determine the soil and groundwater conditions at the site and to develop engineering recommendations to assist in the design and construction of the proposed project. We accomplished these objectives by: • Performing a site reconnaissance to evaluate the existing site conditions, • Drilling test soundings and hand auger borings to explore the subsurface soil and groundwater conditions, • Performing an infiltration test to determine the infiltration rate of the soils in potential stormwater BMP areas, and • Analyzing the field data to develop appropriate geotechnical engineering design and construction recommendations. 2 Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 3.0 EXPLORATION PROCEDURES 3.1.1 Cone Penetration Test Soundings Two electronic cone penetration test soundings (S-1 and S-2) were performed during our field exploration. The cone penetration test soundings were performed in general conformance with ASTM D 5778 by our subcontractor. The soundings were performed with a track mounted rig. The approximate locations of the CPT soundings are indicated on -the Exploration Location Diagram in Appendix A of this report. The cone used in the soundings has a tip area of 10 cm2 and a sleeve area of 150 cmz. The CPT soundings recorded tip resistance and sleeve friction measurements to assist in determining pertinent index and engineering properties of the site soils. The ratio of the sleeve friction to tip resistance is then used to aid in assessing the soil types through which the tip is advanced. The results of the CPT soundings are presented in Appendix B. 3.1.2 Hand Auger Borings and Infiltration Tests During a site visit, two hand auger borings were performed on the site. The purpose of the hand auger borings was to stratify the subsurface soils and estimate the seasonal high water table (SHWT) of the subsurface soils. We evaluated the subsurrac:e soil and ground water conditions by advancing the hand auger borings to depths of approximately 60 to 70 inches below the existing ground surface at the approximate locations indicated on the Exploration Location Diagram presented in Appendix A. We visually classified the subsurface soils on site. At each boring location, an infiltration test was performed using a constant head permeameter. Infiltration tests are typically conducted at two feet above the SHWT or in the most restrictive soil horizon. The results are provided in Section 4.5 and in Appendix C of this report. Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 4.0 EXPLORATION RESULTS 4.1 Site Conditions The proposed site is located between Galloway Hall and Graham Hewlett Hall on the UNCW campus in Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina. At the time of exploration the site consisted of a bituminous asphalt parking lot and was relatively level with elevations ranging from about 44 to 45 feet. 4.2 Resalonal Geology The site is located in the Coastal Plain Physiographic Province of North Carolina. The Coastal Plain is composed of seven terraces, each representing a former level of the Atlantic Ocean. Soils in this area generally consist of sedimentary materials transported from other areas by the ocean or rivers. These deposits vary in thickness from a thin veneer along the western edge of the region to more than 10,000 feet near the coast. The sedimentary deposits of the Coastal Plain rest upon consolidated rocks similar to those underlying the Piedmont and Mountain Physiographic Provinces. In general, shallow unconfined groundwater movement within the overlying soils is largely controlled by topographic gradients. Recharge occurs primarily by infiltration along higher elevations and typically discharges into streams or other surface water bodies. The elevation of the shallow water table is transient and can vary greatly with seasonal fluctuations in precipitation. 4.3 Soil Conditions CPT Sounding: Approximately 3 inches of asphalt pavement overlying 5 inches of ABC stone was reported by the drillers at the sounding locations. Beneath the surface materials to a depth of about 25 feet, the test soundings typically encountered intermittent layers of medium dense to very dense clean sands (SP). The equivalent corrected standard penetration test resistances (N*-values) in these soils generally ranged from 12 to 94 blows per foot (bpf). From a depth of 25 feet to a depth of approximately 68 feet, the test sounding S-1 typically encountered intermittent layers of medium dense to dense clean sand (SP). The N*-values in these soils generally ranged from 13 to 46 bpf. From a depth of 68 feet to a termination depth of approximately 74 feet, the test sounding S-1 typically encountered intermittent layers of loose to medium dense silty, slightly silty, and clean sands (SM, SP-SM, SP) and soft to stiff sandy clay (CL). The. N*-values in these soils generally ranged from 4 to 17 bpf. The descriptions provided in this section are a general summary of the subsurface conditions encountered within the CPT test soundings. The CPT Sounding Logs in Appendix B contain detailed information recorded at each of the sounding locations. 4 Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 4.4 Groundwater Conditions Groundwater was observed at the completion of drilling operations. At the time of drilling, the groundwater depth was approximately 12 feet below the existing grade. The highest groundwater observations are normally encountered in the late winter and early spring. Variations in the location of the long-term water table may occur as a result of changes in precipitation, evaporation, surface water runoff, and other factors not immediately apparent at the time of this exploration. 4.5 Seasonal Hinh Water Table and Infiltration Test Results The results from seasonal high water table estimates and infiltration tests performed in the hand auger borings are summarized in the following table: Infiltration SHWT Infiltration Test Rate Location in Depth in in/hr B-1 48 36 8.32 B-2 42 24 12.85 For more detailed info,�oation, please see the infiltration testing form included in Appendix CO of this report. 5 Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 5.0 ANALYSIS AND RECOMMENDATIONS The recommendations provided in this report are based upon our understanding of the proposed construction, the information provided to us during this exploration and our past experience with similar conditions. Should any of the information provided to us be changed prior to final design, ECS should be notified to review these recommendations and make appropriate revisions, if necessary. 5.1 Subarade Preparation The first step in preparing the site for the proposed construction should be to remove vegetation, rootmat, topsoil, deleterious materials, existing utilities and pavement, and other soft or unsuitable materials from the existing ground surface. These operations should extend at least 10 feet, where possible, beyond the planned limits of the proposed buildings and pavements. After proper clearing, stripping, grubbing, and prior to fill placement, foundation, slab, or pavement construction, the exposed subgrade soils should be carefully evaluated by an experienced geotechnical engineer to identify localized unstable or otherwise unsuitable materials. After evaluating the exposed soils, proofrolling using a smooth drum roller, having an axle weight of at least 10 tons, is suggested to be used at this time to aid in identifying localized soft or unsuitable material which should be removed. The proofrolling will also help dentify the upper exposed subgrade soils. Soft . or unsuitable materials identified during proofrolling operations should be either repaired in -place or removed and replaced with an approved backfill placed and compacted in accordance with recommendations of this report. Due to the presence of near surface, loose sands, in -place densification of the surface soils in building pad and pavement areas should be performed at the beginning of site grading activities. Site subgrade conditions will be significantly influenced by weather conditions. Subgrades that are evaluated after periods of rainfall will not respond as well to proofrolling as subgrades that are evaluated after periods of more favorable weather. We strongly recommend that rubber tire equipment not be used if subgrade conditions exhibit elevated moisture conditions. The contractor should use tracked equipment to minimize the degradation of marginally stable subgrades. The preparation of fill subgrades, as well as proposed building subgrades, should be observed on a full4ime basis by a representative of ECS. These observations should be performed by a geotechnical engineer, or his representative, to ensure that the unsuitable materials have been removed and that the prepared subgrade is suitable for support of the proposed construction and/or fills. Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 5.2 Engineered Fill Placement Following the removal of deleterious surface and subsurface materials, and after achieving a stable subgrade, engineered fills can be placed and compacted to achieve the desired site grades. Fill for support of the proposed construction and for backfill of utility lines within expanded building and pavement limits should consist of an approved material, free of organic matter and debris and cobbles greater than 3 inches, less than 35 percent fines content passing the number 200 sieve, and have a Liquid Limit (LL) and Plasticity Index (PI) less than 35 and 9, respectively. We also recommend that fills within structural areas have a standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density of at least 100 pounds per cubic foot (pcf). Unsuitable fill materials include topsoil, organic materials (OH, OL), and high plasticity clays and sifts (CH, MH). Such materials removed during grading operations should be either stockpiled for later use in landscape fills, or placed in approved on or off -site disposal areas. Existing soils containing significant amounts of organic matter will not be suitable for re -use as engineered fill. As such, the organic content of the near surface soils should be evaluated to determine if some of these soils will be suitable for re -use as engineered fill. Natural fine- grained soils classified as clays or silts (CL, ML) are generally not suitable for re -use as structural fill but upon request may be evaluated by the geotechnical engineer at the time of construction to determine their suitability for use as engineered fill. Prior to the commencement of fill operations and/or utilization of any off -site borrow materials, the contractor should provide representative samples of the proposed fill soils to the geotechnical engineer. The geotechnical engineer can determine the material's suitability for use as an engineered fill and develop moisture -density relationships in accordance with the recommendations provided herein. Samples should be provided to the geotechnical engineer at least 3 to 5 days prior to their use in the field to allow for the appropriate laboratory testing to be performed. Fill materials placed within the building and pavement areas should be placed in lifts not exceeding 8 inches in loose lift thickness and moisture conditioned to within their working range of optimum moisture content. The fills should then be compacted to a minimum of 98 percent of the soil's standard Proctor (ASTM D 698) maximum dry density. The typical working range of optimum moisture for the natural Coastal Plain soils at the site is expected to be within approximately 3 percent of the optimum moisture content. Care should also be taken to provide a smooth, gently sloping ground surface at the end of each day's earthwork activitles to help reduce the potential for ponding and absorption of surface water. Grade controls should also be maintained throughout the filling operations. Filling operations should be observed on a full-time basis by a qualified representative of ECS to determine that the required degrees of compaction are being achieved. We recommend that a minimum of one compaction test per 2,500-square-foot area be performed for each lift of controlled fill. Within trench or other localized excavations at least one test shall be performed for each 200 linear feet of each lift of fill. The elevation and location of the tests should be clearly identified at the time of fill placement. Areas which fail to achieve the required degree of compaction should be re -worked until the specified degree of compaction is achieved. Failing test areas may require moisture adjustments or other suitable remedial activities in order to achieve the required compaction. 7 Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 Fill materials should not be placed on frozen. frost -heaved, and/or soils which have been recently subjected to precipitation. Wet or frozen soils should be removed prior to the continuation of site grading and fill placement. Borrow fill materials, if required, should not contain excessively wet or frozen materials at the time of placement. Additionally, if grading operations occur during the winter months, frost -heaved soils should be removed prior to placement of engineered fill, granular sub -base materials, foundation or slab concrete, and asphalt pavement materials. If problems are encountered during the site grading operations, or if the actual site conditions differ from those encountered during our subsurface exploration, the geotechnical engineer should be notified immediately. 5.3 Foundations Recommendations Provided the subgrade preparation and earthwork operations are completed in strict accordance with the recommendations of this report, the proposed construction can be supported on conventional shallow foundations bearing on approved natural materials and/or properly compacted fill. We recommend a maximum net allowable design soil bearing pressure of 4,000 psf for proportioning continuous and isolated column footings. To reduce the possibility of foundation bearing failure and excessive settlement due to local shear or "punching" failures, we recommend that continuous footings have a minimum width of 13 inches and that isolated column footings have a minimum lateral dimension of 30 inches. Furthermore, footings should bear at a depth to provide adequate frost cover protection. For this region, we recommend the bearing elevation be a minimum depth of 12 inches below the finished exterior grade or in accordance with the local building code requirements. The net allowable soil bearing pressure refers to that pressure which may be transmitted to the foundation bearing soils in excess of the final minimum surrounding overburden pressure. The final footing elevation should be evaluated by ECS personnel to verify that the bearing soils are capable of supporting the recommended net allowable bearing pressure and suitable for foundation construction. -These evaluations should include visual observations, hand rod probing, and dynamic cone penetrometer (ASTM STP 399) testing, or other methods deemed appropriate by the geotechnical engineer at the time of construction, in each column footing excavation and at intervals not greater than 25 feet in continuous footing excavations. The settlement of a structure is a function of the compressibility of the bearing materials, bearing pressure, actual structural loads, fill depths, and the bearing elevation of footings with respect to the final ground surface elevation. Estimates of settlement for foundations bearing on engineered or non -engineered fills are strongly dependent on the quality of fill placed. Factors which may affect the quality of fill include maximum loose lift thickness of the fills placed and the amount of compactive effort placed on each lift. Provided that the building footprint is surcharged and the recommendations outlined in this report are strictly adhered to, we expect that total settlements for the proposed construction are expected to be in the range of 1 inch or less, while the differential settlement will be approximately 1/2 of the anticipated total settlement. This evaluation is based on our engineering experience and assumed structural loadings for this type of structure, and is intended to aid the structural engineer with his design. 8 Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 5.4 Floor Slab Design Provided a suitable subgrade will be prepared as recommended herein, ground level slabs can be designed as slabs -on -grade. Our findings indicate that a modulus of subgrade reaction (kJ of 200 pci is appropriate for design provided that the slab subgrade soils have been uniformly compacted to at least 98 percent of their standard Proctor maximum dry density. We recommend that the slabs -on -grade be isolated from the foundations so that potential differential settlement of the structure will not induce shear stresses inthefloor slab. Also, to minimize the crack width of any shrinkage cracks that may develop near the surface of the slab, wire mesh reinforcement or fiber mesh may be included in the slab design. If used, the wire mesh should be located in the top third of the slab to be effective. If fiber mesh is used, fibers should be batched/mixed at the plant and not at the site. In addition, the structural engineer must determine the dosage quantity of fiber to be added. We also recommend that slabs -on -grade be underlain by a minimum of 6 inches of open graded aggregate to help prevent the capillary rise of subsurface moisture from adversely affecting the slab. If open graded aggregate is not available, clean sand with less than 3 percent fines can be used provided the placement and compaction of the sand complies with the above recommendations. If floor covering such as tile or carpet will be utilized for interior finishes, a polyethylene vapor barrier may be used beneath the floor slab for moisture control considerations. 5.5 Seismic Site Class Determination and Liguefaction Potential The North Carolina Building Code (2009 Intemational Building Code with South Carolina Amendments) requires that a seismic Site Class be assigned for new structures. The seismic Site Class for the site was determined by calculating a weighted average of the shear velocities of the overburden to the depth of rock/refusal. The CPT test data indicates that the existing natural, overburden soils at the site have shear velocities ranging from approximately 763 ft/sec to 1,822 ft/sec. The method for determining the weighted average value is presented in Section 1613.1.5 of the IBC 2009. The weighted average value for the site is 1,021 ft/sec. Based on the results of the CPT soundings and our evaluation of the site, the site shall be assigned a seismic class °D". Based on the iBC 2009, for a seismic site class ".6" at latitude 34.22080 and longitude - 77.8717', the SDS value is 0.300 and. the So, value is 0.153. The seismic design category depends on the design use of the building and should be determined by the structural engineer. The potential for liquefaction at the site is considered low based upon the CPT results and the liquefaction index procedure developed by Iwasaki (1982). Based on our CPT results and our evaluation using a site peak ground acceleration of 0.12g, an earthquake event with a magnitude of 7.3 and procedures developed by Robertson (2010) and Idriss & Boulanger (2008), the liquefaction induced settlement at the subject site is estimated to be less than 1 inch. 9 Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 5.6 Pavement Desion Considerations For the design and construction of exterior pavements, the subgrades should be prepared in strict accordance with the recommendations in the "Subgrade Preparation" and "Engineered Fill Placement' sections of this report. An important consideration with the design and construction of pavements is surface and subsurface drainage. Where standing water develops, either on the pavement surface or within the base course layer, softening of the subgrade and other problems related to the deterioration of the pavement can be expected. Furthermore, good drainage should minimize the possibility of the subgrade materials becoming saturated during the normal service period of the pavement. The existing pavement section was observed to be approximately 3 inches of asphalt overlying 5 inches of ABC stone. Based on assumed traffic loads and the soil conditions encountered during our exploration, the existing asphalt can be used as the light duty flexible .pavement section with resurfacing to extend the life of the existing pavement. For a heavy duty, flexible pavement section to support a traffic load of 5 axel trucks, garbage trucks, and occasional fire trucks, we recommend milling 1.5 inches of the existing pavement and replacing with a 1.5 inch lift of SF9.5A bituminous pavement.. For new pavements, ECS recommends a light duty section of 2 inches of surface mix overlying 6 inches of ABC stone and 3 inches of ABC stone overlying 6 inches of ABC stone. For a rigid pavement section, we recommend 5 inches of 4,000 compressive strength concrete. The base materials should be compacted to at least 98 percent of their modified Proctor (ASTM D 1557) maximum dry density. Regardless of the section selected and type of construction utilized, saturation of the subgrade materials and asphalt pavement areas results in a softening of the subgrade material and shortened life span for the pavement. Therefore, we recommend that both the surface and subsurface materials for the pavement be properly graded to enhance surface and subgrade drainage. By quickly removing surface and subsurface water, softening of the subgrade. can be reduced and the performance of the parking area can be improved. Site preparation for the parking areas should be similar to that for the building area including stripping, proofrolling, and the placement of compacted structural fill. Please note that large, front -loading trash dumpsters frequently impose concentrated front - wheel loads on pavements during loading. This type of loading typically results in rutting of bituminous pavements and ultimately pavement failures and costly repairs. 'Consequently, we recommend the use of an 8 inch thick, mesh reinforced concrete slab that extends the entire length of the truck. Concrete pavements should be properly jointed and reinforced as needed to help reduce the potential for cracking and to permit proper load transfer. 10 Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington . Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 5.7 Site Drainage Positive drainage should be provided around the perimeter of the structure to minimize the potential for moisture infiltration into the foundation and slab subgrade soils. We recommend that landscaped areas adjacent to the structure and pavements be sloped away from the construction and maintain a fall of at least 6 inches for the first 10 feet outward from the structure. Roof drains should discharge at least 5 feet from the building perimeter or directly into below grade stormwater piping. The parking lots, sidewalks, and other paved areas should also be sloped to divert surface water away from the proposed building. The proper diversion of surface water during site grading and construction will help reduce the potential for delays associated with periods of inclement weather. The proper diversion of surface water is especially critical since portions of the site soils are expected to be moisture sensitive. Based upon our past experience, the use of "crowning" large areas of exposed soils should be useful to help divert surface water from the prepared subgrades. 5.8 Construction Considerations Exposure to the environment may weaken the soils at the foundation bearing elevation if the foundation excavations remain exposed during periods of inclement weather. Therefore, foundation concrete should be placed the same day that proper excavation is achieved and the design bearing pressure verified. If the bearing soils area softened by surface water absorption or exposure to the environment, the softened soils must be removed from the foundation excavation bottom immediately prior to placement of concrete. If the excavation must remain open overnight, or if inclement weather becomes imminent while the bearing soils are exposed, we recommend that a 2 to 3 inch thick "mud -mat' of "lean" concrete be placed over the exposed bearing soils before the placement of reinforcing steel. It is imperative to maintain good site drainage during earthwork operations to help maintain the integrity of the surface soils. The surface of the site should be kept properly graded to enhance drainage of surface water away from the proposed construction areas during the earthwork phase of this project. We recommend that surface drainage be diverted away from the proposed building and pavements areas without significantly interrupting its flow. Other practices would involve crowning and sealing the exposed soils daily with a smooth -drum roller at the end of the days work to reduce the potential for infiltration of surface water into the exposed soiis. The key to minimizing disturbance problems with the soils is to have proper control of the earthwork operations. Specifically, it should be the earthwork contractor's responsibility to maintain the site soils within a workable moisture content range to obtain the required in -place density and maintain a stable subgrade. Scarifying and drying operations should be included in the contractor's price and not be considered an extra to the contract. In addition, construction equipment cannot be permitted to randomly run across the site, especially once the desired final grades have been established. Construction equipment should be limited to designated lanes and areas, especially during wet periods to minimize disturbance of the site subgrades. It will likely be necessary to utilize tracked equipment during grading operations particularly if the subgrade soils exhibit elevated moisture conditions. 11 Report of Subsurface Exploration and Geotechnical Engineering Analysis The Hub at UNC Wilmington Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina ECS Project No.: 22.23127 6.0 CLOSING Our geotechnical analysis of the site has been based on our understanding of the site, the project information provided to us, and the data obtained during our exploration. The general subsurface conditions utilized in our analyses have been based on interpolation of subsurface data between the soundings.. If the project information provided to us is changed, please contact us so that our recommendations can be reviewed and appropriate revisions provided, if necessary. The discovery of any site or subsurface conditions during construction which deviate from the data outlined in this exploration should be reported to us for our review, analysis and revision of our recommendations, if necessary. The assessment of site environmental conditions for the presence of pollutants in the soil and groundwater of the site is beyond the scope of this geotechnical exploration. 12 APPENDICES APPENDIX A FIGURES GROUND wo DENOTES APPROXIMATE LOCATION OF CPT DENOTES APPROXIMATE LOCATION OF HAND AUGER BORING WITH SOUNDING INFILTRATION TEST ENGINEER DRAFTING WEG FMW EXPLORATION The Hub at UNCW SCALE NTS 1.

These values are recorded continuously as the cone is pushed to the desired depth. CPT data is corrected for depth and used to estimate soil classifications and intrinsic soil parameters such as angle of internal friction, preconsoiidation pressure, and undrained shear strength.

This report does not reflect specific variations that may occur between test locations. The soundings were located where site conditions permitted and where it is believed representative conditions occur, but the full nature and extent of variations between soundings and of subsurface conditions not encountered by any sounding may not become evident until the course of construction. If variations become evident at any time before or during the course of construction, it will be necessary to make a re-evaluation of the conclusions and recommendations of this report and further exploration, observation, and/or testing may be required. This report has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted soil and foundation engineering practices and makes no other warranties, either express or implied, as to the professional advice under the terms of -our agreement and included in this report. The recommendations contained herein are made with the understanding that the contract documents between the owner and foundation or earthwork contractor or between the owner and the general contractor and the foundation, excavating and earthwork subcontractors, if any, shall require that the contractor certify that work in connection with foundations, compacted fills and other elements of the foundation or other support components are in place at the locations, with proper dimensions and plumb, as shown on the plans and specifications for the project. Further, it is understood the contract documents will specify that the contractor will, upon becoming aware of apparent or latent subsurface conditions differing from those disclosed by the original soil exploration. work, promptly notify the owner, both verbally to permit immediate verification of the change, and in writing, as to the nature and extent of the differing conditions and that no claim by the contractor for any conditions differing from those anticipated in the plans and .specifications and disclosed by the soil exploration will be allowed under the contract unless the contractor has so notified the owner both verbally and in writing, as required above, of such changed conditions. The owner will, in turn, promptly notify this firm of the existence of such unanticipated conditions and will authorize such further exploration as may be required to properly evaluate these conditions. Further, it is understood that any specific recommendations made in this report as to on -site construction review by this firm will he authorized and funds and facilities for such review will be provided at the times recommended if we are to be held responsible for the design recommendations. (� Geolechnical Engineeping Report ---) ` ootecnrical.Services Are Performed for Specific Popp see, Persons, and Projects Geotechnical engineers structure their services to meet the specific needs of their clients. A geotechnical engineering study conducted for a civil engineer may not fulfill the needs of a construction contractor or even another civil engineer. Because each geotechnical engineering study is unique, each geo- technical engineering report is unique, prepared solelyfor the client. No one except you should rely on your geotechnical engineering report without first conferring with the geotechnical engineer who prepared it. And no one - not even you - should apply the report for any purpose or project except the one originally contemplated. Read fire FBI Repo` Serious problems have occurred because those relying on a geotechnical engineering report did not read it all. Do not rely on an executive summary. Do not read selected elements only. A 6eotedmical Engineerks Report Is Based A Unique Set of Pr-1-Specific Factors Geotechnical engineers consider a number of unique, project -specific factors when establishing the scope of a study. Typical factors include: the client's goals, objectives, and risk management preferences; the general nature of the structure involved, its size, and configuration; the location of the structure on the site; and other planned or cxisting site improvements, such as access roads, parking lots, and underground utilities. Unless the geotechnical engi- neer who conducted the study specifically indicates otherwise, do not rely on a geotechnical engineering report that was: not prepared for you, not prepared for your project, not prepared for the specific site explored, or completed before important project changes were made. Typical changes that can erode the reliability of an existing geotechnical engineering report include those that affect: the function of the proposed structure, as when it's changed from a parking garage to an office building, or from alight industrial plant to a refrigerated warehouse, elevation, configuration, location, orientation, or weight of the proposed structure, composition of the design team, or project ownership. As a general rule, always inform your geotechnical engineer of project changes - even minor ones - and request an assessment of their impact. Geotechnical engineers cannot accept responsibility or liability for problems that occur because their reports do not consider developments of which they were not informed. A geotechnical engineering report is based on conditions that existed at the time the study was performed. Do not rely on a geotechnical engineering report whose adequacy may have been affected by: the passage of time; by man-made events, such as construction on or adjacent to the site; or by natu- ral events, such as floods, earthquakes, or groundwater fluctuations. Always contact the geotechnical engineer before applying the report to determine if it is still reliable. A minor amount of additional testing or analysis could prevent major problems. Wiest wooWO".4cal Findings Are Professional Opinions Site exploration identifies subsurface conditions only at those points where subsurface tests are conducted or samples are taken. Geotechnical engineers review field and laboratory data and then apply their professional judgment to render an opinion about subsurface conditions throughout the site. Actual subsurface conditions may differ sometimes significantly from those indi- cated in your report. Retaining the geotechnical engineer who developed your report to provide construction observation is the most effective method of managing the risks associated with unanticipated conditions. A Report's BBC HH1 endaflons Are Aire° '; ?. Do not overrely on the construction recommendations included in your re- port. Those recommendations are notfinal, because geotechnical engineers develop them principally from judgment and opinion. Geotechnical engineers can finalize their recommendations only by observing actual subsurface conditions revealed during construction. The geotechnical engi- neer who developed your report cannot assume responsibility or liability for the report's recommendations if that engineer does not perform construction observation. A 600tecbnb:al Englueerblig Report be Subject to M1 ,11 l' jN'statilm Other design team members' misinterpretation of geotechnical engineer- ing reports has resulted in costly problems. Lower that risk by having your geotechnical engineer confer with appropriate members of the design team after submitting the report. Also retain your geotechnical engineer to review pertinent elements of the design team's plans and specifications. Contractors can also misinterpret a geotechnical engineering report. Reduce that risk by having your geotechnical engineer participate in prebid and preconstruction conferences, and by providing construction observation. Do Net Redrew the Engineert Logs Geotechnical engineers prepare final boring and testing logs based upon their interpretation of field logs and laboratory data. To prevent errors or omissions, the logs included in a geotechnical engineering report should never be redrawn for inclusion in architectural or other design drawings. Only photographic or electronic reproduction is acceptable, but recognize that separating logs from the report can elevate risk. Give Contractors a Complete Report a W Gumance Some owners and design professionals mistakenly believe they can make contractors liable for unanticipated subsurface conditions by limiting what they provide for bid preparation. To help prevent costly problems, give con- tractors the complete geotechnical engineering report, butpreface it with a clearly written letter of transmittal. In that letter, advise contractors that the report was not prepared for purposes of bid development and that the report's accuracy is limited; encourage them to confer with the geotechnical engineer who prepared the report (a modest fee may be required) and/or to conduct ad- ditional study to obtain the specific types of information they need or prefer. A prebid conference can also be valuable. Be sure contractors have sufficient timeto perform additional study. Only then might you be in a position to give contractors the best information available to you, while requiring them to at least share some of the financial responsibilities stemming from unantici- pated conditions. IYYt� � .espons mty Previsions Closely Some clients, design professionals, and contractors do not recognize that geotechnical engineering is far less exact than other engineering disciplines. This lack of understanding has created unrealistic expectations that have led to disappointments, claims, and disputes. To help reduce the risk of such outcomes, geotechnical engineers commonly include a variety of explanatory provisions in their reports. Sometimes labeled "limitations" many of these provisions indicate where geotechnical engineers' responsibilities begin and end, to help others recognize their own responsibilities and risks. Read these provisions closely. Ask questions. Your geotechnical engineer should respond fully and frankly. 6eoeuv1ponmental Concerns Are Not Covered The equipment, techniques, and personnel used to perform a geoenviron- mental study differ significantly from those used to perform a geotechnical study. For that reason, a geotechnical engineering report does not usually re- late any geoenviron mental findings, conclusions, or recommendations; e.g., about the likelihood of encountering underground storage tanks or regulated contaminants. Unanticipated environmental problems have led to numerous project failures. If you have not yet obtained your own geoenvironmental in- formation, ask your geotechnical consultant for risk management guidance. Do not rely on an environmental report prepared for someone else. DbM PPolessionild Aspistance To Deal with Mobl Diverse strategies can be applied during building design, construction, op- eration, and maintenance to prevent significant amounts of mold from grow- ing on indoor surfaces. To be effective, all such strategies should be devised for the express purpose of mold prevention, integrated into a comprehensive plan, and executed with diligent oversight by a professional mold prevention consultant. Because just a small amount of water or moisture can lead to the development of severe mold infestations, a number of mold prevention strategies focus on keeping building surfaces dry. While groundwater, wa- ter infiltration, and similar issues may have been addressed as part of the geotechnical engineering study whose findings are conveyed in -this report, the geotechnical engineer in charge of this project is not a mold prevention consultant; fim of the sermilm parhbmW In cav&,ft snit themmoch cale~11 ftower CMAMW far the prptse st MH pfflV001K Paper &AWMN000 of the r9mgmWaffm eaaweyad if this sport WN of of RUN he xMkW to pmvM maid hie grenft ha or are the sm- Wllneer For Additional f��a.w....o4 Membership in ASFE/The Best People on Earth exposes geotechnical engi- neers to a wide array of risk management techniques that can be of genuine benefit for everyone involved with a construction project.
