REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Ms. Jones:
On February 16, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated
February 16, 2007, to impact 0.008 acres of 404/wetland, 0.007 acres of isolated wetland, and
14,520 square feet of Zone 1 Neuse River basin protected riparian buffers and 5,646 square feet
of Zone 2 Neuse River basin protected riparian buffers to construct the proposed residential
subdivision at the site. On February 28, 2007, the DWQ received additional information from
you, however, the DWQ has determined that your application remains incomplete and/or
provided inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional
information in order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams on
the subject property. Therefore, unless we receive five copies of the additional information
requested below, we will have to move toward denial of your application as required by 15A
NCAC 2H .0506 and will place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional
information. Please provide the following information so that we may continue to review your
project.
Additional Information Requested:
Your proposed project design includes a stub road after crossing an unnamed tributary of
Middle Creek (Stream Impact No. 2). You have not provided details related to the
development planned on the other side of the stream, or a potential connecting road to be tied
to your proposed road. Please revise your site plan to either eliminate this stub road
altogether, or re-design it so that it ends as a cul-de-sac with the surrounding properties,
including the area adjacent to the stream, incorporated into the lots. If this stub road has been
required by the local municipality, please note that a full alternatives analysis must be
provided to justify the future crossing currently being established at this location. If this
stream crossing would merely provide for interconnectivity where reasonable access already
exists, the proposed crossing would not be approvable. If the crossing would be required
