Good morning Anthony,
Re: Project ID 20200302
Thank you again for the feedback and direction. I just left you a voicemail at the office wanting to confirm the
information below is what you've requested. I haven't been able to figure out how to edit my previous buffer
authorization application file online.
Attached please find the revised Site Plan attached indicating the square footage of impact to Zone 2.
Site Impact proposed: Construction of a new Single -Family Residence
The Stream Name: Unnamed tributary
Buffer Impact: Permanent
Impact Type: Allowable with mitigation
SF impact in Zone 1: 0 SF
SF impact in Zone 2: 523 SF
Let me know if you need additional information or have any questions.

Thanks again,
Thomas

Mr. Croft,
You will need to update your figure to show the area in square feet of impact in Zone 2 of the buffer and provided an
amended page 4 of the buffer authorization application with the updated impacts. The term "Allowable" means that
you still have an impact that requires an authorization under the Tar -Pamlico Riparian Buffer Rules. You can provide the
information to me via email and I will forward it to my co-worker Chris Pullinger who is processing the buffer
authorization application.
Regards,
Anthony Scarbraugh

Anthony,
Thank you for your quick response, very helpful.
For preliminary review, I've attached our current Site Plan showing the proposed location of the house, driveway, and
septic system. Also attached existing survey.

Here are a few more questions I have regarding information requested on the Application: (my questions in RED below.)
Section B. Project Information and Prior Project History
1. Surface Waters 2c. — total linear feet of existing streams on the property? This property fronts a Canal, does
that classify as a Stream?
The canal would classify as a stream and the total linear distance of the waterfront portion of the lot which is
approximately 50 If.
Project History 6a. — have permits or certifications been requested or obtained for this property? The property
Owner has a Septic permit issued from DHEC, do I need to provide proof? If so, what specific information needs
to be submitted?
You can provide a copy of the septic permit. Specifically, there have been no past permits or authorization issued for the
subject property from the Division of Water Resources.
Section C. Proposed Impacts Inventory
1. Buffer Impacts 1c. — List all Buffer impacts. I'm not sure which Impacts apply when I reference the Table of Uses,
I don't see specific impacts ie. House, Driveway, etc.
a. Stream Name — is this referring to the adjacent Canal? If so, I can't find a name for it on any of the
maps.
The impacts within Zone would be considered allowable under Session Law 2012-200.
The stream is an unnamed Tributary to Pamlico River and Pamlico Sound with a Water Quality Classification of SA;HWQ.
Section D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization — proposed impacts for both Design and Construction to avoid or minimize impacts
on Buffer.
Design — My current response - Minimized the overall footprint of the proposed structure to
reduce site disturbance. "Sounds good"
Construction — My current response - Erosion control measures will include site fencing and
designated material storage area. Construction equipment and delivery will have designated
access into site. "Sounds good"
Section E. Diffuse Flow Plan
1. Type of SCM we're providing — First I'm not sure how to confirm whether the project will create concentrated
stormwater flow through the buffer? If required, I'm not sure which SCM strategy is best for the site?
The installation of impervious surface within the 50-foot Riparian Buffer will require the collection and treatment of
stormwater conveying from the coverage area. This can be achieved by installation of gutter system that collects
stormwater with a discharge outside the 50-foot buffer that meets the diffuse flow requirements prior to entering the
buffer. You may also elect to install a rain garden or other stormwater BMP that meets the 30 percent removal of Total
Nitrogen and Phosphorus as required by the Tar -Pamlico Riparian Buffer Rules.
Thanks again for your assistance, I'll plan to contact you tomorrow when you're back in the office.
Thomas

Good morning Anthony,
I've been working on completing the Buffer Authorization Application and have a few questions.
1. Is this document typically completed by an environmental engineer? As an architect, I'm not familiar with some
of the information that is required, ie. Diffuse Flow Plan?
The applications are generally completed by the general public with staff assistance. A diffuse flow plan is how
will you capture stormwater and diffuse the discharge so that it can be treated by the 50-riprarian buffer. If
another, approved stormwater Best Management Practices is to be utilized provided the details and any needed
calculation to treat 1.5-inch storm event.
2. Before I formally submit the application, is it possible to submit for a 'Preliminary' review just to make sure I've
addressed everything correctly?
You are more than welcome to email a copy of the plan for my preliminary review prior to formal submittal.
3. Are you available today or tomorrow discuss? If so, let me know when and I'll give you a call.

I will be back in the Office tomorrow.
Thanks for your time,
Thomas Croft
