Project Area The Project Area is 17.56 acres a. The total project area shown on the plans is much larger than the throughout the package now, all project area listed in the Application, Section IV, 7 of 8.73 acres. The four parcels are considered on-site. deed restrictions provided indicate that the project area consists of An updated Deed Restriction was parcels 494560301444,494560301440,494560301442, and provided in the package that is 494560301443. The project area listed in the Supplement-EZ is 17.56 consistent with the SCM design. acres. Please revise the package as needed for consistency. i. If the project area shown on the plans and deed restrictions is accurate,the subdivided parcels would be considered on-site and would not need to be accounted for as off-site areas draining to the SCM. The information provided in the Supplement-EZ appears to correspond to this,but there is a discrepancy in the Application. Ensure the information presented is consistent across the package. ii. Per the deed restrictions provided, it appears that the development involves outparcels being subdivided from the main tract and sold. These recorded deed restrictions and protective covenants would ensure that the development within the project maintains a"built-upon" area consistent with the design criteria used to size the SCM. 1. The sum of the BUA listed in the deed restrictions is 9.73 acres(4.54+2.49+1.65+1.05=9.73 acres),but the total impervious area listed in the package is 10.30 acres(448,705 SF). Please clarify if the discrepancy is due to off-site BUA or revise for consistency. 4006 Barrett Drive,Suite 104 ovvrrian Raleigh,North Carolina,27609 TEL (919)553-6570 iii. If these parcels are not part of the project area, and the deed restrictions not recorded, a legal agreement will need to be recorded limiting the BUA. Per 15A NCAC 02H .1003(3)(b), off-site areas that are not bypassed around an SCM must be accounted for at their full build-out potential (in proposed conditions). The full build-out potential of these off-site areas can be determined by having the property owner(s)enter into a legal agreement limiting the amount of off-site BUA and drainage area draining from the off-site areas to the SCM(s)or by assuming that these off-site areas are 100%BUA(their full build-out potential). It is recommended to bypass off-site areas around the SCMs as the permittee does not have control over property outside of the project area.Please revise as needed(See later comment). 2. "Existing BUA"refers to BUA that was located within the project area prior The"Existing BUA was revised to to the rules going into effect in this area(July 1,2007),not just what happens 0 sf throughout the package to to be currently located within the project area per 15A NCAC 02H .1002 reflect the conditions in 2007. (17). If BUA was constructed after the rules were implemented in the area and would remain,it would be considered"proposed"for the purposes of this The grading was revised so all on- application. Per 15A NCAC 02H .1042 (2) (g) (v), site layout showing all site BUA is captured and treated by existing and proposed built-upon areas is required. It appears that the the SCM. "Existing BUA"listed in the package does not meet this requirement. Please revise the package. a. Because the BUA on-site is not considered"existing,"the Supplement-EZ Form and Section IV, 10 of the Application will need to be revised. b. The plans indicate BUA is by-passed and not captured and treated by the SCM. For the project to meet Runoff Treatment, "...the volume of stormwater runoff generated from all of the built-upon area of a project at build-out during a storm of the required storm depth is treated in one or more primary SCMs..."Please ensure that all proposed BUA is being treated in one or more primary SCMs. If it is not possible to capture and treat all BUA,the uncaptured area can be 4006 Barrett Drive,Suite 104 ovvrrian Raleigh,North Carolina,27609 TEL (919)553-6570 permitted as low-density area(provided it meets all of the low- density requirements). If it is not possible to permit this area as a low- density area, it may need to be handled as a variance per 15A NCAC 02H .1003(6). Please revise the application and design as needed. 3.
