MODIFICATIONS REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL
Project Name: Dominion Energy T-18B (Phase 2) Pipeline Project
Project ID: IREDE-2020-002
County: Iredell
Modifications Pursuant to Applicable North Carolina General Statutes and/or
Regulations:
1. All potentially affected property owners must be notified prior to utility
construction even though the activity is covered under an easement. [G.S.
113A-54.1(a1)]
2. Additional measures maybe required -The applicant is responsible for the
control of sediment on -site. If the approved erosion and sedimentation
control measures prove insufficient, the applicant must take those
additional steps necessary to stop sediment from leaving this site. [15A
NCAC 413.0115].
3. Once construction across the streams/creek is completed, install silt fence and/or
additional measures adjacent to the stream/creek until the area is stabilized. [15A
NCAC 413.0112]
Additional Comments:
1. Please maintain access for the public and residents when working across
driveways and roads. Coordination for access will be necessary.
2. In accordance with G.S. 113A-57(1), when working adjacent to natural
watercourses (including wetlands) a buffer zone of undisturbed vegetation
of sufficient width to restrain visible siltation within the 25% of the buffer
closest to the land disturbing activity must be maintained during all phases
of the project. Following the guidelines in Section 6.74 of the NC Erosion
Control Planning and Design Manual, a minimum buffer width of 15 feet
should be provided, measured horizontally from the edge of the water, for
slopes of zero to 1%. Steeper slopes may require additional buffer width.
