Dear Mr. Owens:
You have our approval to conduct stormwater through the riparian buffer on an unnamed tributary to Crabtree Creek in
Wake County as described in your application and plans received by the Division of Water Quality on November 21. 2000.
After reviewing your application, we have decided that this project is covered by Neuse Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233).
In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not
limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change your
project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If the property is sold, the new owner must
be given a copy of this approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this approval, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act
within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition, which conforms to Chapter
150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-
7447. This approval and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.

Re: Lassiter Place Subdivision
S-132-1999
Dear Mr. Kallam:

r 1 7 2001
WPM, SECTION

We are hereby resubmitting construction drawings for signatures of revisions to the
previously approved construction plans for the referenced subdivision. We are making these
revisions at the request of the State Division of Water Quality who now feel that a
constructed swale, rather than the recently approved flow level spreader, is a more
appropriate solution for our subdivision street's storm water entry into the riparian buffer. We
are therefore redirecting the collected storm water from the street towards our northern
property line with an 18" RCP that will discharge into a constructed swale that will allow
overland flow into the buffer. The existing grated junction box is now to remain to collect this
flow into the piped stream.
As part of this resubmittal we are enclosing the following:
1. One set of reproducible Mylars of the revised construction plan sheets 2 of 6, 3 of 6 and
6 of 6 dated November 16, 2000, 2000 showing the above described storm water only
revisions with supporting calculations.
2. Four sets of the previously approved construction plan sheets (2 of 6, 3 of 6 and 6 of 6)
to facilitate your review.
3. A check in the amount of $75.00 for the Review Fee.
We trust the information provided is sufficient for you to review and approve this revision of
the construction plans. However, should you require additional information, please do not
hesitate to contact us.

DETERMINATION OF OUTLET VELOCITY (EXAMPLE):
Say we have a flow of 9 CFS for the 10 year storm, and have
decided to use a 15" diameter RCP culvert at 2% longitudinal
slope. Enter Figure 5 on the horizontal scale at a pipe slope
of 2 feet per 100 feet. Read a full flow value of 9.5 cubic
feet per second on the vertical scale and a full flow velocity
of 7.5 feet per second.Calculate Q10 9.0 y,Ll eY

Enter Figure 20 at .95 on the horizontal scale and project
a vertical line to the "flow" curve. At this intersection
project a horizontal line to the "velocity" curve. Directly
beneath this intersection read V10

Calculate V10 = 1.14 VFULL = 1.14 x 7.5 = 8.5 feet per sec. 1, ? Z S x 5, 1
This is the true velocity for the peak discharge to be expected
during the 10 year storm. The NYDOT Dissipator Design Chart
can now be entered into to determine length, width, depth and
the median stone diameter required to build the velocity dissipator.

Dear Mr. Schuster:
We are responding on behalf of our client, Mr. William Owens, to your letter dated
September 11, 2000, on the referenced subject.
After being forwarded your letter by Mr. Owens, we asked Mr. Kevin Martin of Soil &
Environmental Consultants, Inc. to visit the site to observe the extent of any violations. Mr.
Martin and I visited the site on September 19th. We received the attached memo the next
day.
As reflected in his memo, we take issue with the violations noted in your letter with
the exception of the fact that a new storm drain was tied into an existing storm drain within
the riparian buffer. There is no roadway in the buffer, the subdivision street stops well short
of the riparian buffer. Our original plan proposed to utilize the sanitary sewer easement
across the buffer as a driveway and we will be requesting a driveway access to the single
building lot on the other side of the buffer in the near future. As to alternative access to this
lot, there is no other access except across the buffer. All adjacent lots to it were developed
years ago. We were proposing the sewer easement as the access since it would require no
additional piping of the stream or clearing of buffer.
In reply to your questions on date of operation on this tract, construction of the
project began on or about March 23rd of this year. With regard to the storm drainage issue,
we are in the process of abandoning this tie-in, which was a misunderstanding on our part,
and rerouting the storm water so that the flow from the subdivision's only street will achieve
sheet flow prior to reaching zone 2 of the buffer. Plans for this reroute will be forwarded to
you and the City of Raleigh as soon as they are finalized next week.
If we can provide additional Information on this matter, please do not hesitate to
contact us directly at the address and numbers on our letterhead.
Sincerely,
Pive s c tes, A.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Bill Piver, Piver & Associates
FROM: Kevin Martin
DATE: September 19, 2000
RE: Lassiter Mill and Beltline Project
After reviewing the site, I believe the only Neuse Basin Buffer rule
"problem" is the direct storm water discharge to the stream. If you block
or remove the existing storm drain and reroute it to discharge at non-
erosive velocities outside of the 50' stream buffer, that would alleviate the
problem.
I do not agree with DWQ's statement that a 401 certification was
required for work performed. The sewer line connecting to the existing
sewer line was placed over an existing piped section of stream which
contained no jurisdictional waters or wetlands.
Also, since the buffer impacts were for a utility line crossing that
was less than 40' wide it is exempt from the rules (i.e. no notification was
required to DWQ prior to installing it).
If in the future you intend to utilize the sewer line crossing for a
driveway to access the rear lot, approval from DWQ would be required if
that crossing impacted greater than 25' of channel or 2500 ft2 of buffer.
If you have questions or require further information please call.

' NOV 2 1 20
We have previously submitted plans for the referenced subdivision that proposes to
discharge treated storm water into the riparian buffer from a constructed swale. This swale is
designed to provide 30% Nitrogen removal from the storm water prior to its entry into the
buffer. These plans have been reviewed and approved by your staff.
We have now been instructed by your staff to submit the Pre-Construction Notification
Application. Accordingly, we have completed and hereby submit seven copies of the
requested application form.
We trust the information provided is sufficient for approval of our application. However,
should you require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Subject: Notice Of Violation
Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Rules
NBRRO 00-241
Lassiter/Summit Court
Wake County
Dear Mr. Owens:
This letter is being sent to you due to the violations that have occurred at the subject site
relevant to the Neuse Buffer Rules. This project is referenced by the Raleigh Regional Office
as NBRRO 00-242. Members of my Staff, discovered the violation while responding to a
Citizen's Complaint on an adjacent piece of property. This site is in violation of The Neuse
River Basin: Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy; Protection and Maintenance of
Existing Riparian Areas, Administrative Code T15A:02B.0233 (NCAC 0233).
It has been determined that the buffer along the unnamed tributary to Crabtree Creek has been
removed and stormwater control structures along with a drop inlet have been put in place. A
State issued 401 Water Quality Certification is required before any impacts are allowed to
occur in the Neuse River Basin. Therefore, the road crossing is unpermitted and in violation
of the Clean Water Act.
The impacts to the riparian vegetation referenced above are violations of the Neuse River
Basin: Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy; Protection and Maintenance of
Existing Riparian Areas, Administrative Code T15A:02B.0233 (NCAC .0233) which states that
existing riparian areas shall be protected and maintained on all sides of surface waters in the
Neuse River Basin (intermittent streams, perennial streams, lakes, and estuaries). Maintenance
of the riparian areas should be such that, to the maximum extent possible, sheet flow of
surface water is achieved. Any activity that would result in water quality standard violations
or that disrupt the structural or functional integrity of the riparian area are prohibited."
The removal of the riparian buffer constitutes violations of this Rule promulgated under
.0233(3) which states the riparian buffer must be protected in two zones.
