2. Diffuse Flow
An additional condition is that all stormwater shall be directed as diffuse flow at non -erosive
velocities through the protected stream buffers and will not re -concentrate before discharging into
the stream as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0259(5) or provide treatment via an approved
stormwater BMP meeting the nutrient removal requirements established within 15A NCAC
02B .0259(a).
3. No Impacts to Zone 1
No impacts shall occur to Zone 1 of the protected riparian buffers (except for uses and activities
designated as "exempt" within 15A NCAC 02B .0233(6), unless otherwise approved by the Division.
4. The Permittee shall replant the vegetation within temporarily disturbed areas associated with this
project in an "in kind" manner immediately following construction. (Example: Disturbed areas with
pre-existing grassed lawns must be replanted with grass. Disturbed areas with pre-existing trees or
woody vegetation must be replanted with trees and woody vegetation. Disturbed areas with pre-
existing forest vegetation must be replanted with forest vegetation including at least two different
native hardwood tree species at a density sufficient to provide 260 trees per acre at maturity. This
density can usually be achieved by planting approximately 360 (11 x 11 spacing) to 538 (9 x 9 spacing)
trees per acre.) Restoration of trees/shrubs/forest must be completed by the first subsequent
planting season (November 1 through March 30). Note, if the tree plantings do not survive, they will
need to be replaced such that the density is sufficient to provide 320 trees per acre at maturity. [15A
NCAC 02H .0506 (b)(3) and 15A NCAC 02B .0259 (6)]
5. This approval and its conditions are final and binding unless contested. (G.S. 143-215.51
