APPROVAL OF STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN
Dear Mr. Niekamp,
On August 25, 2008, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) issued a 401 Water Quality Certification to you to
place fill within or otherwise impact 250 linear feet of an unnamed tributary to Doby Creek for the purpose of
constructing the proposed "South Tract Blvd. Apartment" in Mecklenburg County. On November 10, 2008, the
401 Oversight/Express Permitting Unit of the DWQ received a stormwater management plan (SMP) dated
November 6, 2008 from your engineers Mr. Matt Edwards, PE and Ms. Beverly Rosenbloom, EI, both of Kimley-
Horn Associates for the purpose of meeting Condition 6 of the 401 Certification for this project.
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has reviewed the SMP and revised versions dated November 17, 2008 and
November 24, 2008 received on November 18, 2008 and November 25, 2008 respectively. The final revised plan
dated November 24, 2008, with additional information received on December 2, 2008 and December 3, 2008, has

structures shall have maintenance access and at least 10-foot drainage easement on each side to allow for
