D. Stormwater
1. Provide a description of how diffuse flow will be maintained through the protected riparian buffers (e.g., re -planting vegetation
or enhancement of existing vegetation, gutter splash pads, level spreader to control of runoff from impervious surfaces, etc.).
1a. Show the location of diffuse flow measure(s) on your site plan.
1b. Attach a completedLevel SpreaderSupplement Formor BMP Supplement Formwith all required items for each proposed
measure.
lc. Attach an Operationand Maintenance (O&M) Formfor each proposed level spreader or BMP.
2. For Major, Catawba, and Goose Creek variance requests, provide a description of all best management practices (BMPs) that
will be used to minimize disturbance and control the discharge of nutrients and sediments from stormwater.
2a. Show the location of BMPs on your site plan.
2b. Attach a Supplement Form for each structural BMP proposed.
2c. Attach an Operationand Maintenance (O&M) Form for each structural BMP proposed.
E. Demonstration of Need for a Variance
The variance provision of the riparian buffer rules allows the Division or the Environmental Management Commission to grant a
variance when there are practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships that prevent compliance with the strict letter of riparian
buffer protection.
1. Explain how complying with the provisions of the applicable rule would prevent you from securing a reasonable return from or
make reasonable use of your property. Merely proving that the variance would permit a greater profit from the property shall
not be considered adequate justification for a variance. The Division will consider whether the variance is the minimum possible
deviation from the terms of the applicable Buffer Rule that shall make reasonable use of the property possible.
FORM: VAR 10-2013 Page 5 of 6

2. Explain how the hardship results from application of the Buffer Rule to the property rather from other factors such as deed
restrictions or other hardships (e.g. zoning setbacks, floodplains, etc).
3. Explain how the hardship results from physical nature of the property, such as its size, shape, or topography, which is different
from that of neighboring property. /�
4. Explain whether the hardship was caused by the applicant knowingly or unknowingly violating the applicable Buffer Rule.
J%o t�- c o R A-c� P- 1A U I-N a w bbl G LA4 F n1 r_ �oA�c �►-E� 3 F i
5. For Neuse, Tar-Pamlico, Jordan lake and Goose Creek only: Did the applicant purchase the property after the effective date of
the applicable Buffer Rule and then request a variance?
6. Explain how the hardship is rare or unique to the applicant's property, rather than the result of conditions that are widespread.
F. Deed Restrictions
By your signature in Section Gof this application, you certify that all structural stormwater BMPs required by this variance shall
be located in recorded drainageeasements, that the easements will run with the land, that the easements cannot be changed or
deleted without concurrence from the State, and that the easements will be recorded prior to the sale of any lot.
G. Applicant's Certification
I, L, �=QQ _C— S (print or type name of person listed in Section A, Item 2), certify that
the information included on Ithis permit application form is correct, that the project will be constructed in conformance with the
approved plans and}�'� the dee astrictions in ccordance with Section Fof this form will be recorded with all required permit
conditions. ;P1 _ . rl';' n
