Skvarla, III Secretary The Wilmington Regional Office received a complete, modified Express State Stormwater Management Permit Application for The Thistle Golf Club on April 29, 2014. Staff review of the modified plans and specifications has determined that the project, as proposed, will comply with the Stormwater Regulations set forth in Session Law 2008-211 and Title 15A NCAC 2H.1000. We are forwarding Permit No. SW8 980820 dated May 30, 2014, for the construction, operation and maintenance of the BMP's and built -upon area associated with the subject project. This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until March 27, 2015, and shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein. Please pay special attention to the conditions fisted in this permit regarding the Operation and Maintenance of the BMP(s), recordation of deed restrictions, 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 transfer the permit, or to renew the permit, will result in future compliance problems. The following modifications are included and covered by this permit: 1. The pond systems have been modified from a no -discharge system to a discharging pond system via the addition of a drawdown orifice. Golf course irrigation from the pond system is still allowed, but is no longer the only means -of drawing down the pond. 2. The drainage areas were revised to include the area of the BMP. 3.

The tract is located in the southeast quadrant formed by the intersection of NCSR 1163 and NCSR 1164, and comprises approximately 401.26 acres. The project is located adjacent to/or within the headwater wetlands of Shingletree Swamp and Little Cawcaw Swamp. The current use of the property is residential/recreational, with 14 developed single-family lots, a 27-hole public golf course, a clubhouse and maintenance building. The site is currently undergoing development of an area permitted as Phase I, with Phase II development planned in the future. The project area is relatively flat; topographic relief ranges from approximately 52 feet above mean sea level (MSL) to approximately 46 feet MSL. Soil at the site is predominantly of the Murville, Mandarin and Leon Series (Soil Survey of Brunswick County). These soils are typically poorly drained, fine sands in upland areas. A pocket of wetlands was delineated in the northeast portion of the Phase I project area during the stormwater permitting phase. Wetlands were not identified in the Phase II section of the development. Phase I of the tract is composed of approximately 252 acres, of which construction of the roadways was permitted under NCDENR low density stormwater permit SW8 970135 in March 1997. In November 1998, the permit was modified to include the roadways in Phase 11 of the tract. In September 1999, a permit application was submitted by WK Dickson for a 32-acre, non -discharging pond system for collection of post -construction stormwater runoff from both phases of development. In May 2000, NCDENR issued a modified stormwater permit, SW8 980820, for a high -density development of the tract, to include 1,208 multi -family units limited to 30% impervious area, with post - construction stormwater runoff to be treated by the pond collection system. The permit was modified in September 2000 from a multi -family residential layout to single family units. In March 2001, the permit was again modified to combine the development of both Phase I and Phase II into a high density permit covering a total drainage area of 362.41 acres (218.91 acres in Phase I and 143.5 acres in Phase II), with construction of 57 single-family lots in Phase I, with a Built Upon Area restriction of 6,000 square feet per lot. Post construction stormwater runoff is collected and treated by two distinct, non -discharge, interconnected pond systems comprised of a total of 13 ponds and providing a total 60 acres of storage area.

CONSI iA v: N�-- Narrative of Stormwater Best Management Practices The Thistle Golf Club and Estates Calabash, North Carolina Page 2 of 3 Detention Basin Systems The two detention basin systems provide treatment of stormwater runoff from the developed areas of Phase I and Il. The two p and systems are not connected to each other. Seven ponds are interconnected in the Phase I system, and six ponds are interconnected in the Phase II system. The Phase I pond system provides a total surface area of 1,393, 570 ft (32 acres) at the permanent pool elevation of 44.5 feet mean sea level (fmsl). The provided surface area exceeds the required surface area of 43,879 fl calculated using a Surface Area/Drainage area (SA/DA) ratio of 0.4 (Table 10-4, North Carolina Division of Water Quality Stormwatar BMp 11fanual), a design suspended solids removal efficiency of 90%, an 11% impervious cover and six foot permanent pool average depth. The permanent pool elevation of the interconnected ponds is controlled by a designated outlet structure in Pond "C" comprised on an outlet weir installed with a discharge elevation of 45.82 finsl. As part of the modified stormwater permit, an 8" circular orifice will be installed on this outlet structure to provide release of the 1.5" storm volume of 204,310 ft . Additionally, Ponds "D" and "E" in the Phase I system have outlet weirs set at elevations 47.12 and 47.72 finsl, respectively, to control upstream levels in the interconnected ponds. The upstream weirs are set at elevations to provide 1.32 feet of storage depth in the temporary pool of each pond. The total provided temporary pool surface area is 1,433,759 W (32.9 acres) with a provided storage capacity of 1,244,025 ft . This is more than enough capacity to capture the stormwater runoff volume from the Phase I drainage area based on a rainfall depth of 1.5 inches. The bottom elevations of the ponds in the Phase I system range from 38.4 ft asl to 40.4 ft asl, and are designed with a sediment storage depth of 1.5 ft. There are no vegetated shelves in the Phase I pond system, and all pond slopes are a maximum 3:1. Calculations and the Wet Detention Supplement form are provided in the stormwater permit modification application. The Phase II pond system provides a total surface area of 1,026,411 W (23.56 acres) at the permanent pool elevation of 45.65 feet mean sea level (finsl). The provided surface area exceeds the required surface area of 58,501 ftz calculated using a Surface Area/Drainage area (SA/DA) ratio of 0.79 (Table 10- 4, North Carolina Division of .Water Quality Stormwater BMP Manual), a design suspended solids removal efficiency of 90%, a 17% impervious cover and 6.5 permanent pool average depth. The permanent pool elevation of the interconnected ponds in Phase II is controlled by a designated outlet structure in Pond "Z" comprised on a 12-ft wide broad -crested weir to control the water levels in the interconnected ponds. The top of the outlet weir is set at an elevation of 47.2 feet above mean sea level (asl) to provide an emergency spillway. The outlet structure is equipped with five, 12-inch diameter orifices set with an invert elevation of 45.65 ft asl. The center orifice will be capped/plugged, and an 8" orifice and pipe will be installed through the cap for release of the 1.5-inch storm volume of 189,104 W. The other four orifices will each be covered with an 8" steel rectangular weir plate that will be bolted and sealed to the concrete wall of the outlet structure. Additionally, Ponds "U" and "V" in the Phase II system have outlet weirs set at top elevations 47.2, and 46.9 ft asl, respectively, to control upstream levels in the interconnected ponds, and Pond "T" is connected to Pond "Z" through a 36" underwater pipe with a top elevation of 44.40 ft asl. The upstream weirs are set at elevations to provide 2.09 feet of storage depth in the temporary pool of each pond. The total provided temporary pool surface area is 1,154,329 ftz (26.5 acres) with a provided storage capacity of 710,435 W at an average depth of 6.5 feet. This is more than enough capacity to capture the stormwater runoff volume from the Phase II drainage area based on a rainfall depth of 1.5 inches. The bottom elevations of the ponds in the Phase II system range from 39.5 ft asl to 40.2 ft asl, and are designed with a sediment storage depth of 1.5 ft. There are no vegetated shelves in the Phase II pond system, and all pond slopes are a maximum 3:1. Calculations and the Wet Detention Supplement form are provided in the stormwater permit modification application. I,--:) DCVCU.6f7 & DUNiIAM, P.C.

ALT, NCDENR North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Pat McCrory Governor May 7, 2014 William Haberman, President DGH Thistle, LLC 1815 Olde Thistle Club Road Sunset Beach, NC 28468 -Subject:- Request -for Additional- Information Stormwater Project No. SW8 980820 The Thistle Golf Club and Estates Brunswick County Dear Mr. Haberman: John E. Skvarla, III Secretary The Wilmington Regional Office received an Express Stormwater Management Permit Application for The Thistle Golf Club and Estates on April 29, 2014. A preliminary review of that information has determined that the application is not complete. The following information is needed to continue the stormwater review: 1. The impervious area reported on the Phase I pond supplement does not match the impervious area reported on the application.. 2. The pond area is generally counted as part of the drainage area and is considered pervious. Please revise the drainage areas for each pond. 3. Since the deed restrictions allow all of the lots to have 8,000 square feet of BUA, you should use 8,000 sf for each lot for purposes of totaling up the BUA. You do not need to separate the lots by existing and undeveloped, or account for partial lots. In the Phase I pond, just use 68 x 8000 for the lot BUA, then add in the other buildings. In the Phase II pond, use 91 x 8000 and eliminate the 4745 "existing". 4. The wet pond supplement has an area to report volumes for SA waters and non -SA waters. Since Shingletree Swamp is non -SA waters, you should not have any numbers in the five blanks under the heading "Storage Volume: SA Waters" on the supplements. You only need to fill in the two blanks under the heading "Storage Volume: Non -SA Waters" on the supplements. 5. The Pond C weir details on Figure 4 need to be revised as follows: a. The orifice invert is currently shown as 44.7, however the permanent pool elevation for the Phase 1 pond is proposed at 44.5, therefore the orifice invert should also be set at 44.5. b. The weir throat elevation is currently shown as 45.78, however, the temporary pool elevation is proposed at 45.82. Please either raise the throat elevation to 45.82, or lower the proposed temporary pool elevation to 45.78. If you lower the temporary pool to 45:78, please update the supplement form, recalculate the volume provided between 44.5 and 45.78, and recalculate the orifice size. Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources Land Quality Section —Wilmington Regional Office 127 Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, North Carolina 28405 • (910) 796-7215 / Fax: (910) 350-2004 Mr. Haberman May 7, 2014 Stormwater Application No. SW8 980820 6. The Pond Z weir details on Figure 4 indicate that the existing 12" orifices have been covered by a steel plate. As we discussed at our meeting, the temporary pool elevation in the Phase 2 pond is going to be governed by the top elevation of that steel plate, which is currently set at elevation 46.3. If you want to keep the temporary pool at 47.2, then you need to completely cover or plug the 12" orifices such that the water level is allowed to stage up to 47.2 and then flow over the broad -crested weir. If you want to keep the steel covers over the existing orifices at 46.3, then please update the supplement and recalculate the temporary pool volume provided between elevations 45.65 and 46.3, and recalculate the orifice size. 7. Each of the orifice sizing calculations uses a CD of 0.65 and an average head of 3.7 (feet/inches??). The standard coefficient of discharge for a sharp -edged orifice is 0.6. The use of a larger CD and an incorrect average head results in the 4" orifice being much too small to drain off the 1.5" volume in 2-5 days. Average head in the Phase 1 pond is (45.82 — 44.5) / 3 = 0.44 feet and average head in the Phase 2 pond is (47.2 — 45.65) / 3 = 0.52 feet. These are the current numbers — if you change the temporary pool elevations as described in previous comments, the average head will be different. 8. For the Phase 2 pond, there are several inconsistencies between the numbers reported on the supplement, application and calculations that must be resolved: a. Please clarify what is the permanent pool surface area provided — the calculations indicate 2 different numbers: 1,026,410 and 1,017,508. The number reported on the supplement is 1,019,096. b. The required minimum permanent pool surface area in the calculations is 55,772, but the number reported on the supplement is 71,260. c. The temporary pool volume provided in the calculations is 1,752,489, but the number reported on the supplement is 256,371. The temporary pool volume is that volume located between the permanent pool elevation and the specified temporary pool elevation. d. Please round the average depth to the nearest half -foot (6") before calculating the SA/DA ratio. For this pond the average depth to use is 6.5 feet, not 6.6 feet. Please revise the application documents accordingly and provide 2 new copies. Due to the increases in drainage area and built -upon area, these numbers will change. 9. Due to the significant additional review time that will be needed, please submit a reapplication fee of $500. Please note that this request for additional information is in response to a preliminary review.

The tract is located in the southeast quadrant formed by the intersection of NCSR 1163 and NCSR 1164, and comprises approximately 401.26 acres. The project is located adjacent to/or within the headwater wetlands of Shingletree Swamp and Little Cawcaw Swamp. The current use of the property is residential/recreational, with 14 developed single-family lots, a 27-hole public golf course, a clubhouse and maintenance building. The site is currently undergoing development of an area permitted as Phase I, with Phase H development planned in the future. The project area is relatively flat; topographic relief ranges from approximately 52 feet above mean sea level (MSL) to approximately 46 feet MSL. Soil at the site is predominantly of the Murville, Mandarin and Leon Series (Soil Survey of Brunswick County). These soils are typically poorly drained, fine sands in upland areas. A pocket of wetlands was delineated in the northeast portion of the Phase I project area during the stormwater permitting phase. Wetlands were not identified in the Phase H section of the development. Phase I of the tract is composed of approximately 253 acres, of which construction of the roadways was permitted under NCDENR low density stormwater permit SW8 970135 in March 1997. In November 1998, the permit was modified to include the roadways in Phase H of the tract. In September 1999, a permit application was submitted by WK Dickson for a 32-acre, non -discharging pond system for collection of post -construction stormwater runoff from both phases of development. In May 2000, NCDENR issued a modified stormwater permit, SW8 980820, for a high -density development of the tract, to include 1,208 multi -family units limited to 301/6 impervious area, with post - construction stormwater runoff to be treated by the pond collection system. The permit was modified in September 2000 from a multi -family residential layout to single family units. In March 2001, the permit was again modified to combine the development of both Phase I and Phase II into a high density permit covering a total drainage area of 362.41 acres (218.91 acres in Phase I and 143.5 acres in Phase Il), with construction of 57 single-family lots in Phase I, with a Built Upon Area restriction of 6,000 square feet per lot. Post construction stormwater runoff is collected and treated by -two distinct, non -discharge, interconnected pond systems comprised of a total of 13 ponds and providing a total 49 acres of storage area. 13.11'i,?i <i i DDUSS -- POI' OFFICE: 3=.:�: <= `:' f ... .. . . .. . .... 2751 - Narrative of Stormwater Best Management Practices The Thistle Golf Club and Estates Calabash, North Carolina Page 2 of 3 Detention Basin S terns The two detention basin systems provide treatment of stormwater runoff from the developed areas of Phase I and H. The two pond systems are not connected to each other. Seven ponds are interconnected in the Phase I system, and six ponds are interconnected in the Phase II system. The Phase I pond system provides a total surface area of 1,393, 570 f' (32 acres) at the permanent pool elevation of 44.5 feet mean sea level (finsl). The provided surface area exceeds the required surface area of 38,144 ft' calculated using a Surface ArealDrainage area (SA/DA) ratio of 0.4 (Table 104, North Carolina Division of Water Quality Stormwater BMP Manual), a design suspended solids removal efficiency of 90%, a 12% impervious cover and six foot permanent pool average depth. The permanent pool elevation of the interconnected ponds is controlled by a designated outlet structure in Pond "C" comprised on an outlet weir installed with a discharge elevation of 45.82 finsl. As part of the modified stormwater permit, a 4" circular orifice will be installed on this outlet structure to provide release of the 1.5" storm volume of 188,334 W. Additionally, Ponds "D" and "E" in the Phase I system have outlet weirs set at elevations 47.12 and 47.72 finsl, respectively, to control upstream levels in the interconnected ponds. The upstream weirs are set at elevations to provide 1.32 feet of storage depth in the temporary pool of each pond. The total provided temporary pool surface area is 1,749,329 ft' (40.15 acres) with a provided storage capacity of 2,074,313 W. This is more than enough capacity to capture the stormwater runoff volume from the Phase I drainage area based on a rainfall depth of 8.37 inches (25-yr, 24-hr storm event). The bottom elevations of the ponds in the Phase I system range from 38.4 ft asl to 40.4 ft asl, and are designed with a sediment storage depth of 1.5 ft. There are no vegetated shelves in the Phase I pond system, and all pond slopes are a maximum 3:1. Calculations and the Wet Detention Supplement form are provided in the stormwater permit modification application. The Phase II pond system provides a total surface area of 1,026,410 fF (23.56 acres) at the permanent pool elevation of 45.65 feet mean sea level (finsl). The provided surface area exceeds the required surface area of 52,772 ft' calculated using a Surface Area/Drainage area (SA/DA) ratio of 1.14 (Table 10- 4, North Carolina Division of Water Quality Stormwater BMP Manual), a design suspended solids removal efficiency of 90%, a 20% impervious cover and 6.6 permanent pool average depth. The permanent pool elevation of the interconnected ponds in Phase II is controlled by a designated outlet structure in Pond "Z" comprised on a 12-ft wide broad -crested weir to control the water levels in the interconnected ponds. The top of the outlet weir is set at an elevation of 47.2 feet above mean sea level (asl) to provide an emergency spillway. The outlet structure is equipped with five, 12-inch diameter orifices set with an invert elevation of 45.65 ft asl. The center orifice will be capped/plugged, and a 4" orifice and pipe will be installed through the cap for release of the 1.5-inch storm volume of 140,654 W. The other four orifices will each be covered with an 8" steel rectangular weir plate that will be bolted and sealed to the concrete wall of the outlet structure. These weirs will provide overflow capability at an elevation of 46.30 ft asl. Additionally, Ponds " U' and "V" in the Phase II system have outlet weirs set at top elevations 47.2, and 46.9 ft asl, respectively, to control upstream levels in the interconnected ponds, and Pond "T" is connected to Pond "Z" through a 36" underwater pipe with a top elevation of 44.40 ft asl . The upstream weirs are set at elevations to provide 2.09 feet of storage depth in the temporary pool of each pond. The total provided temporary pool surface area is 1,154,329 ft' (26.5 acres) with a provided storage capacity of 7,912,558 -t' at an average depth of 6.6 feet. This is more than enough capacity to capture the stormwater runoff volume from the Phase II drainage area based on a rainfall depth of 8.37 inches (25-yr, 24-hr storm event). The bottom elevations of the ponds in the Phase II system range from 39.5 ft asl to 40.2 ft asl, and are designed with a sediment storage depth of 1.5 ft. There are no Narrative of Stormwater Best Management Practices The Thistle Golf Club and Estates Calabash, North Carolina Page 3 of 3 vegetated shelves in the Phase II pond system, and all pond slopes are a maximum 3:1.
