Klimek, P.E. Director Division of Water Quality DWQ No. 06-1223 V2 Pitt County ®~~~' } '` . ~~`' ;"~~ ~~~R~~j , 0~,. fi~ . ~~' n ~v ~$~ C,y On October 17, 2006, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated September 16, 2006 to request impacts to the Neuse River stream buffers for the Brookstone Subdivision in Pitt County. On December 20, 2006, the Division of Water Quality received your revised application to request impacts to the Neuse River stream buffers. The DWQ has determined that the application remains incomplete as described below. Therefore, unless we receive the additional information requested below, we will have to move toward denial of your application as required 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. Please provide the following information so that a Buffer Authorization maybe issued: 1. The two extended detention wetlands must be designed in accordance with the 1999 DWQ Best Management Practice Manual. The plans do not show appropriately sized forebays and micropools for the extended detention wetlands. It is not permissible to place an extended detention wetland within a stormwater dry detention pond. The entire area devoted to stormwater treatment must be designed and constructed as an extended detention wetland. 2. The outlets of the extended detention wetlands should be relocated in a manner that maximizes the flow path of the stormwater (i.e., as far away from the inlet pipes as possible.) 3. Please provide the velocities at the outlets of the two pipes that discharge the flow from the extended detention wetlands to the existing channel. Please provide outlet protection if these velocities appear likely to cause erosion of the channel. 4. The planting plan must specify the source of the planting materials. 5. The species of plant materials specified are acceptable, however, the plan calls for small plants placed too close together. Please specify larger plants that will be planted with wider spacing. 401 Oversight I Express Review Permitting Unit 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1650 2321 Crabtree Boulevard, Suite 250, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604 Phone: 919-733-17861 FAX 919-733-68931 Internet: http:/Ih2o.enr.state.nc.usincwetlands N""o~~ennCazolina Jvatura!!y An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer - 50% Recycled/10% Post Consumer Paper Brookstone Subdivision, Pitt County Page 2 of 2 January 17, 2007 6.
