Good Morning Jeff,
I have completed my initial review of the PCN for the Albemarle Beach Solar site. Please address the
following items:
1. All of the impacts to wetlands/waters associated with this project appear to be road crossings
and culvert extensions. Are there any other impacts (including temporary) other than the road
crossings? (If the impacts are only from road crossings then we will evaluate this project
under NWP-14)
2. 1 don't see any of the utility lines on the site plan. How will the electricity be transferred
offsite? Will there be any wetland impacts associated with utility lines?
3. Please provide a more detailed design of the wetland crossings A,B, & C (the drawing should
include length and width of the road within the wetland). Please also provide a typical cross-
section drawing of the ditch and wetland road crossings.
4. Impacts A, B, & C will result in the loss of more than 0.1 acres of the same wetland. Mitigation
will be required for these impacts at a 2:1 ratio. Please provide a mitigation plan to offset
these impacts. I checked RIBITS and it appears that this project is within the service area of
Great Dismal Swamp Restoration Bank. You can contact Ms. Beverly White at [phone]
Ext 105 gdsrb2(@Rmail.com to inquire about credit availability.
5. 1 will need to coordinate with the NC SHPO office regarding the cultural resources/historic
properties survey. I will let you know if they require any additional information.
Please address the above items at your earliest opportunity. The submittal will be considered
incomplete until all of the items are adequately addressed. Please let me know if you have any
questions.
Thanks,
