Re: 6263 Ebenezer Church Road (PIN 0805-34-9138)
Project Number: LDP20-0013
NOTIFICATION of Final Stormwater Management Plan (SMP) Approval —
Low Impact Design (LID)
Dear Mr. Scheri:
On or about February 21, 2020, Orange County Erosion Control and Stormwater
Management staff received an application for a land disturbing permit for 6263
Ebenezer Church Road within the Eno Township of Orange County.
The property further identified utilizing Orange County Parcel Identification
Number (PIN) 0805-34-9138, is an approximately 40-acre parcel of property within the
Neuse River Basin (hereafter `the property'). Per applicable County regulation(s),
development of the property requires an:
• Erosion control permit when proposed land disturbance exceeds 20,000
sq.ft. of land area; and
• A stormwater review/permit application when land disturbance exceeds
21,780 sq.ft. (half an acre) of land area.
As the property is located within the Neuse River Basin, development is required
to abide by nutrient reduction standards as detailed in Section 6.14.7 of the Unified
Development Ordinance (UDO).
The submitted land disturbance permit application indicates development on the
property will involve:
a. Total area to be disturbed: 108,900 sq.ft. (2.5 acres);
PaLye 2 of 3
b. Total proposed impervious surface area: Approximately 18,500 sq.ft. (1 % of
total are of the property);
c. Utilization of Low Impact Development (LID) stormwater criteria for meeting
applicable stormwater management planning (SMP) requirements in
conformance with) Section 6.14.6(B) of the UDO.
(hereafter `the project').
During February/March 2020 staff reviewed the project offering comment(s) and
suggested revisions, which were incorporated into a final proposal, which was reviewed
by Mr. Christopher Sandt, Staff Engineer. The LID proposal was approved by Mr. Sandt
on March 11, 2020 who found that the project complied with:
1. Orange County comments;
2. Applicable stormwater management requirements as outlined in Section 6.14 of
the UDO; and
3. The State Stormwater Design Manual.
An approval letter was authored at that time, under my signature as the interim
Erosion Control Officer, but appears to not have been sent. Staff apologizes for the
oversight and are sending this letter to correct for this error.
This LID stormwater approval is only valid for the purpose and design as
described in the LID submittal, prepared and sealed on February 24, 2020 by Matthew
Jones with Horvath Associates, PA.. Any change to the project requires notification to
our office and may require submittal of a new application.
If ownership of the property is transferred to another person(s) or entity, the new
owner(s) will be responsible for complying with the approved plan.
This approval also grants agents, officials, or other qualified persons authorized
by Orange County the right to inspect the site to determine compliance with the
approved SMP, the UDO, and the State Stormwater Design Manual, including
maintenance of on -site stormwater best management practices. Please note that for
final acceptance of the SWP by our office, the following steps must occur:
® Horvath Associates PA will be required to submit a PE sealed as -built drawing of
the 6263 Ebenezer Church Road development verifying that LID criteria have
been met according to the approved SMP.
