MERRIMONT PARK
Site Viability Assessment Request
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
NARRATIVE > CWI-19000
The existing wet pond located at Merrimont Park was previously approved by the City of Wilson in 2014 and constructed
thereafter. The project is located on a parcel in a residential area in Wilson, North Carolina and is owned by the City of
Wilson. The Merrimont Park site is south of the intersection of Buckingham Road NW and Westminster Drive NW with
Hampton Road NW to the west of the wet pond and Hominy Swamp stream east of the wet pond. The area south of
the SCM is wooded. The site is within the Neuse River Basin. The overall site consists of a park with playground
equipment, a small building with restrooms, and a picnic shelter in addition to the wet pond. The proposed mitigation
project would convert the existing pond into a water quality pond by construction of an appropriately sized drawdown
device.
TIMELINE OF LAND USES
1. 1990 — 2017
The site was purchased by the City of Wilson in 1974 and since that time has been the location of Merrimont
Park operated by the City of Wilson Parks and Recreation department.
2. 2017 — present
In 2017 construction began to convert a large open space area of the park into a wet pond. The pond exists
and is maintained by the City of Wilson presently.

Hydrologic Soil Group —Wilson County, North Carolina
Merrimont Park
Description
Hydrologic soil groups are based on estimates of runoff potential. Soils are
assigned to one of four groups according to the rate of water infiltration when the
soils are not protected by vegetation, are thoroughly wet, and receive
precipitation from long -duration storms.
The soils in the United States are assigned to four groups (A, B, C, and D) and
three dual classes (A/D, B/D, and C/D). The groups are defined as follows:
Group A. Soils having a high infiltration rate (low runoff potential) when
thoroughly wet. These consist mainly of deep, well drained to excessively
drained sands or gravelly sands. These soils have a high rate of water
transmission.
Group B. Soils having a moderate infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These
consist chiefly of moderately deep or deep, moderately well drained or well
drained soils that have moderately fine texture to moderately coarse texture.
These soils have a moderate rate of water transmission.
Group C. Soils having a slow infiltration rate when thoroughly wet. These consist
chiefly of soils having a layer that impedes the downward movement of water or
soils of moderately fine texture or fine texture. These soils have a slow rate of
water transmission.
Group D. Soils having a very slow infiltration rate (high runoff potential) when
thoroughly wet. These consist chiefly of clays that have a high shrink -swell
potential, soils that have a high water table, soils that have a claypan or clay
layer at or near the surface, and soils that are shallow over nearly impervious
material. These soils have a very slow rate of water transmission.
If a soil is assigned to a dual hydrologic group (A/D, B/D, or C/D), the first letter is
for drained areas and the second is for undrained areas. Only the soils that in
their natural condition are in group D are assigned to dual classes.
