Re: Tarboro Road S/D Preliminary Plat
Stormwater Management Review

PIN: 1871-18-1205
Subdivision Area: 18.20 acres (15 lots)
Owner/Developer El Dorado Investment Group, Inc.
Applicant FLM Engineering
SCMs Proposed: none
River Basin: Neuse and Tar-Pamlico

Dear Jason:

We have reviewed the preliminary plat and stormwater submittal for Tarboro Road Subdivision in
accordance with the Franklin County Stormwater Ordinance and NCDEQ regulations for stormwater
development in the Tar-Pam and Neuse River Basin, and offer the following comments.

1. Per Franklin County Stormwater Ordinance Section 4, development within the Neuse River Basin is
exempt from Stormwater Review [15A NCAC 2B .0235]. As such, no stormwater calculations are
required for those areas.

2. However, as noted on the plans, Neuse riparian buffer rules do apply. The applicant should submit
the hard copy NRCS and USGS soils map with the site clearly shown to confirm the non-existence of
a riparian buffer. NCDEQ to provide buffer permit prior to construction, if applicable.

3. As described in the stormwater letter by Chase Massey, PE, dated 7/30/19, less than one acre is
within the Tar-Pam watershed with less than 0.5 acres of disturbance, and thus is exempt from
stormwater management.

Based on the information presented, Appian recommends CONDITIONAL APPROVAL of the submitted
plan, subject to the items described above. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Appian Consulting Engineers, P.A.

David C. Revoir, PE
