requirements may be added to this Certiftcation at DWQ's discretion on a case by case basis for
projects that have or are anticipated to have impervious cover of greater than 30 percent. Site-
specific stormwater management shall be designed to remove 85% TSS according to the latest
version of DWQ's Stormwater Best Management Practices manual at a minimum. Additionally, in
watersheds within one mile and draining to 303(d) listed waters, as well as watersheds that are
classifted as nutrient sensitive waters (NSYI~, water supply waters (WS), trout waters (Tr), high
quality waters (HQN~, and outstanding resource waters (ORW), the Division shall require that
extended detention wetlands, bio-retention areas, and ponds followed by forested filter strips
(designed according to latest version of the NCDENR Stormwater Best Management Practices
Manual) be constructed as part of the stormwater management plan when asite-specific
stormwater management plan is required. Unless specified otherwise in the approval letter, the
