Dear Mr. Spiegel:
On June 5, 2023, the Division of Water Resources (Division) received your application requesting a 401
Water Quality Certification from the Division for the subject project. On July 17, 2023, the Division
received additional information and updated designs/plans for the project. The Division has
determined that your application is incomplete and cannot be processed. The application is on -hold
until all of the following information is received:
1. Please provide a mitigation acceptance letter or Statement of Availability to document
mitigation availability for the project.
2. The project is required to provide either:
a. A Complete Stormwater Management Plan, OR
b. The following items to document that the project will not cause degradation of downstream
surface waters:
1) A discussion on how the project will not cause degradation of downstream surface
waters when considering both the water quality and the volume/velocity of the
increased flows to the current size/condition of the receiving stream.
2) Delineation of each drainage area and accompanying calculations to show that flows
from every discharge point will be non -erosive to both the land surface and the
receiving surface water during the peak flow from the 10-year storm event. You may
refer to the guidelines from DEMLR - Sedimentation and Erosion Control to determine
an appropriate non -erosive velocity. The permissible velocities for erosion protection
are under Appendix 8.05 (i.e. Chapter 8).
