Re: Southwick Solar, LLC
CDC Project No.: 12052
Dear Mr. Farkas,
On behalf of the Pine Gate Renewables, LLC, we are pleased to submit the requested additional
information for your review and approval. The comments identified in the letter from your
office dated July 31 ', 2020 and the associated responses (in blue) are listed below.
1. Please verify with Alamance County that they are unable to review this project for
compliance with post -construction stormwater requirements. This project is located in the
Jordan Lake Watershed and local jurisdictions may implement the stormwater
postconstruction rules in these areas.
County does not permit post-constraction stormwater compliance. I was directed to
contact
2. Please fill out Section. II, 5.
3. Please describe the nature of how stormwater will be treated on site in both Section IV,
and in the stormwater narrative (Section VI, 5). Thisdescription/narrative should

expound on the low density requirements for solar farms as outlined in Part E-6 of the
Manual.
As requested, Section IV, I and the Storrawater Narrativedescriptions of
how the stormwater will be treated in compliance with section E-6 of the NC Stormwater
4. Please fill out Section IV, 5 & 6. If either of these items is zero (0), you should enter "0"
for these items.
5. Please calculate the total project area as indicated in Section IV, 7. If an area other than
the property area (Such as a limit of disturbance) is being used to define the area in which
the project is being constructed, then please also revise Section IV, 4 to account for this.
6. Please ensure that the percent impervious area is calculated correctly (Section IV, 8).
7. Since this is a low density project and the entire site drains to the same receiving water,
there should only be one drainage area listed (Section IV, 9). This drainage area is the
property area.
+,�
8. Please correct the following issues with the table in Section IV, 10:
a. Please remove the second drainage area column.
b. Total Drainage Area This value should match the total project area, Section IV,

c. On -site Drainage Area — This value should equal the total drainage area value.
d. Off -site Drainage Area — There should not be any off -site component to the
drainage area since the drainage area is the entire project area.
e. % Impervious Area — The percent impervious area should match the project
percent impervious area, Section IV, 8. Revise either as needed.
9. Off -site impervious area delineation is not required since this is a low density project
(Section IV, 11).

Agreement Form (Section V & Section VI, 3). These forms are required for all projects

IV. PROJECT INFORMATION
1. In the space provided below, briefly summarize how the stormwater runoff will be treated.
Proposed slopes have been designed under 8% to prevent concentration of runoff. Subsoil compaction will be
minimized during construction. Runoff from solar panel arrays will be disconnected. Use of herbacide
/fertilizer shall be minimized for ground cover minatenace A mix of warm and cool season grasses shall be
planted under the panels. The vertical limit of the solar arrays has been designed not to exceed 10ft. All
ground cover shall be reseeded as required.
2. a. If claiming vested rights, identify the supporting documents provided and the date they were approved:
❑ Approval of a Site Specific Development Plan or PUD Approval Date:
❑ Valid Building Permit Issued Date:
❑ Other: Date:
b.If claiming vested rights, identify the regulation(s) the project has been designed in accordance with:
❑ Coastal SW - 1995 ❑ Ph II - Post Construction
3. Stormwater runoff from this project drains to the CAPE FEAR River basin.

between the banks of streams and rivers, the area below the Normal High Water (NHM line or Mean High Water
(MHM line, and coastal wetlands landward from the NHW (or MH1O line. The resultant project area is used to
calculate overall percent built upon area (B UA). Non -coastal wetlands landward of the NHW (or MHVv) line may
be included in the total project area.
8. Project percent of impervious area: (Total Impervious Area / Total Project Area) X 100 = 3.3
9. How many drainage areas does the project have?1 (For high density, count 1 for each proposed engineered
stormwater BMP. For low density and other projects, use 1 for the whole property area)
