2. Diffuse Flow

All new stormwater drainage shall be directed to vegetated areas. as diffuse flow at non-erosive
velocities prior to entering the protected riparian buffers as identified within 15A NCAC 2B
.0259(5). No new ditching or piping of stormwater through the protected buffers is allowed

3. Buffer Mitigation (EEP/Restoration)

You are required to mitigate for Zone I impacts to the protected riparian buffers. The
required area of mitigation to compensate for impacts to the protected riparian buffers is
120 square feet as required under this, variance approval and 15A NCAC 2B .0259. You
have the option to make a payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund
administered by the NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) to meet this mitigation
requirement. This has been detemiined by the DWQ to be a suitable method to meet the
mitigation requirement. In accordance with 15A NCAC 2B .0259, this contribution will
satisfy our compensatory mitigation requirements under 15A NCAC 2B .0259(9)(C).
Until the EEP receives and clears your check (made payable to: DENR -Ecosystem
Enhancement Program Office), no impacts specified in this variance approval shall occur.
The EEP should be contacted at [phone] if you have any questions concerning
payment into the EEP. For accounting purposes, this variance approval authorizes
payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund to compensate for 120 fr of
required riparian buffer mitigation for impacts to 102 fe of protected riparian
buffers; 03-04-02, 27-43-(1) river and subbasin."

The DWQ will also accept an alternative method of mitigation (including but not limited
to Buffer Restoration or Enhancement) pursuant to the Buffer Mitigation Rule (15A
NCAC 02B .0259) to satisfy this mitigation requirement. !fyou choose to pursue this
option, then you are required to submit in writing a mitigation plan to the DWQ
Wetlands/401 Unit for review and approval. No irripacts shall occur to the protected
buffers until the mitigation plan is approved. In this plan, you should propose to plant
1 tree of native hardwood species within the riparian buffer.
