Hi Debbie,
We had discussed the project with some of our staff here notably Amy, Ian, and Brian
and we are all of the view that the impact would be considered a road crossing
impact. However, since this is in a buffered basin, we are requiring you to
consider the following options for diffuse flow provisions as discussed during the
last meeting:
(1) If site constraints would allow, please design a BMP (preferably a
bioretention) to treat the stormwater runoff from the road prior to discharge into
the stream. This would require sizing the BMP for whatever road area will drain to
it.
(2) If option 1 is not feasible, then please consider upgrading the dry pond to a
wet pond to achieve a higher treatment as a way of compensating for the lack of
diffuse flow.
In view of all this, we shall accept it into the express program. Expect an
acceptance letter shortly, I thought I should let you know where we stand. Let me
know if you have questions. Thanks.
Joseph.

Lid,
I apologize for getting this to you so late today, I just got the impact exhibit
from David Blevins 15 min. ago. Thanks again for meeting with us before you
received this, I know you went out of your way procedure wise and it is much
appreciated.
On a different note (Tryon Road Townhomes project) I have not heard back from
Randy King with the greenway crossing bridge impact exhibit that I.was going to
send you for your review before you left for your honeymoon. So, my plan is to
submit the application and it can either be reviewed when you get back or Joseph
can take care of while your gone ...I have explained this to the client.
Have a great time and congratulations!
Debbie

I would say that if widening the two roads would require the stream to
be piped then it makes sense, but if widening the two roads could leave
a portion of the stream unpiped, then they shouldn't have to pipe the
entire 38 feet. It may not be a fight worth fighting, but without
seeing the entire permit app, I can't really say. Your call. I would
check with Brian Wrenn, David or Rob and get their input since DOT is
pushing the piping, just to see how they've dealt with this issue with
DOT many times before. I'd feel comfortable with what they say as far
as how DOT is treated typically with this issue.
Make sense? May not since I'm on sleep deprivation right now. Congrats
on married life! (*shortly).

Subj: Re: level spreader bypass question
Amy,
Debbie Edwards just brought a odd project our way (O'Reilly Auto
Parts). Here is the low down...
A triangular shaped lot (see ppt) that currently has a 38-ft section
of
perennial stream running through the corner of it. There is a 72"
culvert outlet at Raleigh Beach Rd and a 6x8 box culvert inlet at New
Bern Ave. The City of Raleigh is requiring the applicant to widen
both
Raleigh Beach Rd and New Bern Ave (see red dashed line on ppt). DOT
(Reed Elmore, District Engineer) is requiring them to pipe the entire
section (38 feet) completely because they will not take over steep
headwalls. This would completely pipe the stream (I was thinking
this
would probably require a major variance). Debbie contends that "this
is
a road widening project in the red rule book" and should therefore
not
require a variance. Have you encountered projects similar to this
before, if so, what was the verdict. There is an additional issue
with
this if this project doesn't require a variance - about treating
stormwater to compensate for lack of diffuse flow. Please email me
as
soon as you can since tomorrow is my last day for a while. :-)
Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Lia,
I apologize for getting this to you so late today, I just got the impact exhibit from David Blevins 15 min. ago.
Thanks again for meeting with us before you received this, I know you went out of your way procedure wise and
it is much appreciated.
