REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Mongold:
DWQ#: 10-0095
Johnston County
On March 17, 2010, the Express Review Program of the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your
application dated March 16, 2010, to impact 10 linear feet of perennial stream (temporary impact) and
4,179 square feet of Zone 1 Neuse River basin protected riparian buffer and 5,115 square feet of Zone 2
Neuse River basin protected riparian buffer, to construct the proposed rail spur at the project location.
The DWQ has determined that your application will require additional information. Please provide the
following information so that we may continue to review your project and prevent denial of your
application as required by 15A NCAC 2H.0506:
Additional Information Requested
1. As mentioned in the pre-application meeting, the 50-foot riparian buffers are measured from the
top of bank of the stream. Please modify your plans to show the stream top of banks, rather than
the stream centerline. This change will likely affect your impact calculations.and the buffer
footprint on the plans.
2. Additionally, your proposed level spreaders may not encroach into Zone 2 of the buffer
(including grading as shown on the NW level spreader found on sheets C-201.2 and C-202.2).
3. Please ensure that the elevations in the bypass structure (Sheet C-406, Detail 4) are correctly
labeled. It is preferred that you show separate bypass structure detail for each basin-level spreader
system since the locations of the HDPE pipes relative to the bottom of swale are different.
4. Please replace the 5.5" and 3.25" orifices with 6" and 4" orifices respectively for Basins 1 and 2,
and provide a protection measure for the orifices to minimize clogging.
5. Basin-Level Spreader Systems:
a. Please extend the berm around the basins to be higher than the level spreader or lower the
elevation of the level spreader lip so that all flows are directed to flow over the lip.
b. Provide a note on the plans that the basin slopes shall be stabilized with grass, and
specify the type of grass to be used. (The bottom surface area of the 134' contour may be
further minimized to reduce the side slopes to 4:1)

c. For ease of maintenance (removal of accumulated sediment), please provide a sloping
surface (at 45 degrees angle) at the bottom of the inside face of the level spreader, and
shall be made of a smooth hardened material such as concrete.
Please respond within five (5) days of the date of this letter by sending two (2) copies of the above
information in writing. The Express Review Program is a process that requires all parties to participate in
a timely manner.
