Additional Information Requested:
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
a. To meet the diffuse flow requirements, a 50-foot minimum width of the filter strip is
required. Unless the vegetation downstream of each proposed 30-foot grass filter strip is
considered "dense vegetation",you will need to revise the level spreader length calculations.
The filter strip width is measured from the level spreader lip to the top of stream bank. The
required filter strip length per cfs of flow shall be calculated as a weighted average of the
lengths required for each vegetation type and/or density. Please refer to Section 13.3.4 of the
NCDWQ BMP Manual for further guidance.
