Inspection Summary:
Met with R. Carroll Thomas and Scott Brown at the permitted detention pond to determine compliance with State
Stormwater Management Permit SW6100902. Permit was originally issued on October 19, 2010 for the initial phase of
the development and subsequently modified/reissued on September 14, 2011 to incorporate a portion of the drainage
area from Phase III. The permit was again modified/reissued on January 16, 2014 to incorporate the entire drainage area
from Phase II. Please note that due to this latest modification, Permit SW6111101 that was issued on December 16,
2011 for Wedgefield Subdivision Phase II may be rescinded upon request.
At the time of inspection, the permitted built -upon area (BUA) as well as the dimensions, forebays, inlet structures and
outlet structure of the permitted detention pond appeared to have been installed per the permit and approved plans. Small
pine trees were observed growing on the interior slopes of the pond, which are not allowed. Mr_ Thomas was advised to
flush -cut the trees and remove them from the site. One of the inlets at forebay #2 appeared to be without the appropriate
amount of rip rap protection underneath the flared -end section of the pipe. Mr. Thomas was advised to place additional rip
rap underneath the inlet pipe in order to help prevent undercutting. Subsequent to the inspection, the aforementioned
items were addressed as evidenced by photos of the completed work being sent via e-mail to the inspector on December
2, 2019. Also provided with the same e-mail were copies of the recorded restrictive covenants and easements with
correction to the Stormwater Permit Number as well as the deed transfer for the retention pond area.

Brian,
For the Wedgefield Phase 1 project, we have revised our roadway typical section to be 3% instead of 2%, and we added
a note regarding the 0.01 in/hr infiltration to remind the Contractor to have it checked or a liner would be needed. We
also took the stamp off that had" FINAL -NOT FOR CONSTRUCTION." Nothing has changed on the actual pond itself.
Should we just send these revised plans back to you for your files?

Hey Jarrod,
I have been meaning to respond to your other email. If you were going to change the design and add a liner then you
would want to submit a permit modification which would just update the plan sheets to show this change. The permit
would stay the same in this case but there would be new approved plan sheets. Also, I have issued this permit and sent
it to the permittee. I copied you on it too so you should see it soon.

Brian,
We just learned that the Contractor has gotten back into the clay when excavating to final grades at the bottom
elevation of the pond.
Regardless, I'm still interested to know if we are required to submit anything to you after excavation verifying
infiltration.
Thanks.
P.S. I also wanted to check on the overall review of the submittal.

Brian,
I received updated information on this project's wet detention basin soil from the Contractor today and he informed us
that he is running into areas of more sandy material outside of the soil bores.
As such, depending upon the quantity of existing clay material, they will first try to re -distribute and compact the clay
over the bottom to maintain the 0.01 in/hr max infiltration. Should they be unable to distribute and compact the clay
material along the bottom, we will be installing a clay liner as necessary from a nearby borrow source. The borrow
source has been used for other pond linings in the area, and it will be evaluated for it's specific use on this project by a
local Geotechnical Engineer for required thickness and max infiltration. I'll keep you updated if necessary on the work.
For this project, and for future reference, after we begin, any wet pond excavation, if we run into non -homogenous soils
and have to use borrow clay soils from another site, how does this affect the original permitting of the Wet Detention
Basin? Should we just submit an additional report to you upon completion of the evaluation if borrow soils are used?

On SHWT, average soil permeability is well below max (reference geotechnical report). I've also physically seen the soils
from the sediment basin excavation and it's full of clay. '
On the forebay flow path, the outlet location is best suited where it's currently at due to easement, construction and
hydraulic considerations. We are also required to retain the 50-year storm by NCDOT on this project, aside from any
water quality requirements, so the "straight -through" configuration is also being reviewed by them.
I can send a sketch of the estimated flow path in .pdf form for review if that would help.

Jarrod,
I got a chance to review the plans and additional information that were dated September 29, 2010. Most of it looks
good. I have two comments/concerns on it though. The SHWT is 5 ft lower than the permanent pool elevation. We
usually recommend these elevation to be within a foot. Please provide an explanation why this is not a concern (i.e.
lining the pond or soils information). The second concern is still on the flow path of the forebay no. 2. It still looks like it
is short circuiting the pond. Can the outlet be moved to closer to the middle of the pond or a baffle be added?

Subject: Infiltration Testing Report
Wedgefield Subdivision Pond
Hoke County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Hilliard:
As requested Stewart Engineering, Inc. (Stewart) has completed field testing
services at the above referenced site. This report will summarize our fieldwork,
findings and test results.
1 PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
Based on the information provided to us, it is our understanding that the planned
community will include a wet pond for storm water detention. The pond will be
constructed at the South end of the'development, in an area designated as "Reserved
for Detention Pond - 7.07 Acres'. The total pond area has not been determine at this
time, nor has its footprint; however, the preliminary plans estimate the pond depth to
be 8 feet below the existing grade.
2 SUMMARY OF FIELDWORK & FINDINGS
To evaluate the subsurface conditions within the pond area, a hand auger boring was
performed at two locations, which were determined by Hobbs Upchurch & Associates
(HUA). The locations were established by measuring from existing iron pins as depicted
on a drawing provided to us by HUA; however, one of the test locations (HA-1) was
offset approximately 40 feet east due to a large disturbed (rutted) area that contained
standing water. The ground surface elevation, as provided by HUA, is 259 ft.
The hand auger borings were advanced to 9 feet below the current ground surface. As
the soil cuttings were removed from the hole, they were visually -manually classified by
a geotechnical engineer (see table below). The soil was also checked for indicators of
the seasonal high water table (SHWT) and ground water.

No signs of groundwater or SHWT indicators were noted in HA-2. In the lower 1-foot of
HA-1 (Elevation 251 to 250), the relative moisture was slightly elevated and the color
of the soil (silt) was somewhat mottled with signs of gleying. This condition appeared
to be indicative of the SHWT.
Once the boreholes reached 9 feet deep the hand augering was terminated and the
bottom strata were subjected to infiltration testing. This was performed using a Guelph
Permeameter. The tests were performed using a back -pressure of 50 psi due to the
test depth and was recorded for two head heights (5 cm and 10 cm) to allow for
averaging. The results of the infiltration testing are attached.
3 CLOSING
We trust that the information provided in this report is responsive to your needs at this
time. We appreciate you choosing Stewart to assist on this project. If you have any
questions about the information contained herein, please do not hesitate to call the
undersigned at your convenience.
