Robinhood Court Apartment Homes LLC has historically responded quickly to violations and problems noted at the site. However maintenance and construction problems continue to he found at the site, and are not addressed until tnoted by a DWQ inspection. The Storm water Permit requires that routine inspections occur and all operation and maintenance problems be addressers immediately. Tire site is currently in compliance, however they have been provided until Decemher 31, 2011 to provide permanent stable vegetation along the .side slopes of Bioretention Cell #2 and #3 ► nd to provide permanent slahle vegetation of file slopes above the Infthration Basins #1 and #2. lit addition they are required to provide an Engineer's Certification for the approved BMP recently issued in a Modification dated September 20, 2011 within 60 days of issuance of lire Modification ® (c) Whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident: The failure to submit the designer's certification resulted from the engineer's failure to complete and submit the certification. Most of the other permit violations were due to oversight and not noticed by the Robinhood representative, the designer, or the onsite contractor. The breach of Infiltration Trench #2 was inadvertent and possibly due to faulty construction or other unforeseen factors. Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC acted in good faith to bring this site into compliance. It is the Permittee's responsihility to ensure their consultant, engineer and contractors conduct business in accordance with the Permit issued to Rohinhood Court Apartment Homes LLC. ❑ (d) Whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations: ® (e) Whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary remedial actions: Robinhood has incurred great expenses to correct the items listed in the NOV including nearly $10,000 in engineering fees. Also, Robinhood has recently received DWQ approval to convert Bioretention Cell # 1 to a Wet pond which may cost $40,000 to construct. Robinhood says that having to pay the full assessment will be a financial burden with addition to the costs of achieving compliance. Robinhood may have to find financing from other sources which may be very difficult to do in the current fiscal environment. Tine arpenses noted by Robinhood Court Apartment Homes LLC would not have been necessary if the stormwater measures had been properly installed, routinely inspected, andproperly maintained. In addition, if site stabilization had been improved, many of the problems would not have occurred. The Permittee has requested that the Bioretention Cell #1 be converted to a Wet Pond. Any additional financial burden as a result of this request was a business decision made by Rohinhood. The Stormwater Plan was approved in 2009. All e.Ypenses regarding the installation, inspection and maintenance of these measures were known and should have been considered before construction began. rev I A - 8..3 S ,09 DECISION (Check One) Request Denied ❑ Full Remission ❑ Retain Enforcement Costs?

We recognize that the remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing. We acknowledge that the facts stipulated are essentially accurate and correct, but we ask that you give consideration -to the circumstances associated with those events and the economic hardship and impact that the penalty will have on Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC, in particular, to complete the outstanding work to convert the TSi (Biocell #4) to a wet pond. We respectfully request mitigation of the civil penalties imposed based on the following facts: 1. the failure of Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC to provide the designers certification for Bioretention Cell #4 resulted from, in part the designer's failure to complete and timely submit the certification. Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC had engaged the site contractor, Rick Mabe Grading to construct Bioretention Cell #4. Westcott, Small and Associates as the site designer was engaged to inspect and approve the construction of this Bioretention Cell as well as the other storm water management systems on site. During the early part of November, 2010 the Bioretention Cell was completed. Prior to the onset of construction, Westcott, Small and Associates was consulted to obtain approval to permit a variance in the location of the Bioretention Cell because of the inability to situate the Cell as shown on the plans. We were advised by Westcott, Small and Associates that a minor shift in the location of the Cell would be OK provided that the overall characteristics of the Bioretention Cell were in accord with the approved design. Based on this assurance we gave authorization to the site contractor to make a relatively small shift in the location because topographic and space limitations would not have permitted construction of the Bioretention Cell as shown on the plans. As part of the construction process, we had Westcott, Small inspect the construction of the Cell and in particular to witness the installation of the underground drainage system. While representatives from Westcott, Small and Associates were on site at several occasions during the construction of this Cell, 1 their firm experienced staff changes during this time which in our opinion, resulted in a slip-up in the completion of the paperwork, but more importantly in not noting a construction error by the site contractor. Specifically, with regard to the timeliness of the certification of this Bioretention Cell, construction was completed in November 2010 and as set forth in ECS Carolinas, LLP letter of November 19, 2010, the soil mixture of the Bioretention Cell was analyzed and approved. A copy of this letter was forwarded to Westcott, Small and Associates as what was believed to be the final information required by Westcott for their certification. Unfortunately, for whatever reason Westcott, Small did not receive or act upon this notice and no certification was prepared or submitted to DWQ. The apparent discrepancy in the detail of construction of Bioretention Cell #4 was not noted by our representative, the design engineer, the general contractor of the project (Windsor Contracting), or the site contractor. It was not until the May 19, 2011 DWQ staff inspection that anyone realized that the Bioretention Cell was missing the forebay. As noted in Mr. Westcott's letter of July 6, 2011 Ms. Sue Homewood and Mr. Westcott agreed to use the trench drain as the Torbay. Mr. Westcott accordingly modified the plans to reflect this change and the modified plans were approved by DENR. Accordingly, no changes to the Bioretention Cell were required and the Cell as constructed was approved. Mr. Westcott certified this Bioretention Cell on August 8, 2011 after obtaining a final set of approved plans by DNER . We respectfully are asking for mitigation of the civil penalty imposed by DWQ for 1) failing to install the Bioretention Cell prior to the operation of this facility and 2) failure to install the Bioretention Cell in accordance with the permit approved plans. We have acted in good faith to complete the facility timely and the failure to have the facility certified resulted in part from others failure as well. We trust that you will give consideration to the fact that the final approved drawings of the Bioretention Cell did not require any modification to the Bioretention Cell itself. The Bioretention Cell was completed before the November 19, 2010 soil assessment by ECS Carolinas, LLP. Accordingly, the Bioretention Cell was technically functioning in November 2010. Even the french drain around the tennis court that Ms. Homewood questioned the presence of was installed at the time that the Bioretention Cell was constructed, but was not noticed on DWQ May 29, 2011 visit. 2. We believe that the record will show that Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC responded quickly to address those items set forth in the May 31, 2011 NOV. In fact, prior to the receipt of the NOV on June 1, 2011, one of Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC staff members learned of DWQ site visit and their concerns. He alerted Mr. Wayne Freeman, Director of Maintenance at BSC Holdings, to make him aware of the issues noted by DWQ staff. Once these issues were called to our attention we engaged Westcott, Small and Associates, the site designer to conduct a site assessment and to advise us on a course of action to address the concerns correctly and appropriately. After a field inspection Mr. Westcott advised that we address all of the situations except the variance in construction of Bioretention Cell #4 and the breach of Infiltration Trench #2. Mr. Westcott wanted to meet with Ms. Sue Homewood to review these situations firsthand and agree on a course of action. We believe that when you read Mr. Westcott's letter of July 6, 2011 to Ms. Homewood that it is clear that we responded very quickly to address each and everyone of the concerns set out in the NOV. Some of the issues set forth in the NOV actually were not issues as pointed out by Mr. Westcott, such as the length of the vegetative filter strip at Bioretention Cell #4, the under drains extending into the forebay at Bioretention Cell #3, the elevations in Bioretention Cell #2 not being high enough, and Infiltration Trench #3 not draining properly. Irregardless, Robinhood Court Apartment Homes took these issues seriously and at considerable expense addressed all of the issues set out in the NOV without any hesitation. Once Mr. Westcott and Ms. Homewood came to agreement on the course of action for the repair of the breach of infiltration Trench #2 and the required revision of the drawings for Bioretention Cell #4, work was commenced and proceeded diligently. I do want to point out that with Mr. Westcott's concurrence we suggested what was considered a permanent fix to the breach area of the infiltration trench, despite the substantial cost involved in taking such an approach. E As of this date we believe that each and every one of the issues set forth in the NOV have been addressed with the exception of converting the sediment basin (location of Bioretention Cell #1) into a wet pond. We have just received an approved set of plans (dated September 20, 2011) and have sent the plans to several site contractors for pricing. It is our intent to start work on the wet pond shortly. 3. We believe that the breach of Infiltration Trench #2 was inadvertent. First of all, we recognize that Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC is the record owner of this complex and as such is ultimately responsible. However, in fairness, we want to point out that we, like everyone else, rely upon others to undertake and complete in a professional manner those tasks that we have entrusted them to perform. Accordingly, we had entrusted our design engineer to design the embankment of this infiltration trench to withstand anticipated rain events of exceptional magnitude, we entrusted the site contractor to construct the infiltration trench in accord with the designer's details, we entrusted the general contractor who had the responsibility to oversee all construction/site development on the site, and we certainly entrusted the design engineer when he certified the construction of this infiltration trench in April 2009. Unfortunately, something went wrong and a small portion of the trench gave way leading to a sedimentation impact to the unnamed tributary to Muddy Creek. We recognize and agree that our staff may have failed to detect any telltale signs of a potential failure or erosion in the trench at the area of the breach. The fact that other areas of the trench did not exhibit any telltale signs of possible failure or eroding would suggest that we may have had faulty construction in the breached area or that the design did not fully take into account unforeseen factors that could have exerted additional stress in the location that ultimately failed. Since the NOV we had, with our designer engineers assistance and with concurrence of DWQ, built an embankment that should certainly preclude failure in the future. Furthermore, we have "passed on the heat" to our maintenance staff to do a better job of inspecting and taking preventive measures to avoid situations in the future and to be more religious in their inspection of all of the storm water management features. 4. As setforth in Mr. Westcott's letter of July 6, 2011,- and as further attested to by his certification of Bioretention Cell #4, and undoubtedly by Ms. Homewood subsequent visits to the site, Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC has undertaken at great expense all actions to address those items enumerated in the NOV. Such expenses included nearly $10,000 in engineering fees to Westcott, Small and Associates and a similar expenditure to address those items to the satisfaction of DWQ. We have recently (September 20, 2011) obtained approval by DENR to convert the TST to a wet pond. We have forwarded copies of the plans to various site contractors to obtain a bid to undertake the work. While not all contractors have yet responded, the bid amounts have come in far above our expectations. In fact, the latest bid we received is approximately $40,000 which does not include planting of the shelf area or seeding of the pond. Regardless of where the final costs comes in this additional expenditure will create financial hardship on Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, Robinhood Court Apartment Homes does not have any funding available and would have to procure financing from other sources to complete this work. We recognize that this work must be done and done timely in accord with the representation made by Mr. Westcott to DWQ in his letter of July 6, 2011. Having to find an additional $16,377.61 to satisfy the civil assessment imposed by DWQ will add to the financial burden on Robinhood Court Apartment Homes which is now just fulfilling its financial obligations to its lenders as well as to the timely payment all of the property's operating costs. Frankly, we do not know how we can handle both obligations at this time unless we obtain financing from other sources which is difficult to do in this fiscal environment. Accordingly, we request remission of the civil penalty so that we may endeavor to pay the mitigated amount and be able to timely undertake the work required to convert the TST to a wet pond. 9 Accordingly, we respectfully ask that you take all of these factors into consideration. We recognize our responsibility but ask that you give substantial consideration to everything that we have willingly done to address the situation in a timely and responsible manner.

Our services were provided in general accordance with ECS Proposal No. 09-17027-P. PROJECT OVERVIE ECS has conducted a soil mixture assessment of the bio-retention cell at the Robinhood Court Apartments located on Robinhood Road in Winston Salem, North Carolina. The bio-retention cell was installed adjacent to the tennis courts along Robinhood Road. The purpose was to determine if the soil mixture is consistent with the engineer's recommendation. SCOPE OF WORK On November 19, 2010, ECS conducted an assessment of the soli mixture of the bio-retention cell installed adjacent to the tennis courts at the Robinhood Court Apartments located on Robinhood Road in Winston Salem, North Carolina. This assessment was conducted with a hand auger in accordance with current soil science practices and technology and the soil criteria found in the USDA Field Book for Describing and Sampling Soils, Version 2.0. A control sample provided by the client was tested by ECS. REPORT OF FINDINGS Two soil borings were drilled to 20 to 30 inches below ground surface (bgs). The texture of the soil mixture is sandy loam. The texture and material appear to be consistent with the control sample. Moisture content was consistent throughout the boring. Based on the soil mixture properties and characteristics, the permeability ranges from 0.6 to 2.0 inches per hour. 4811 Koger Boulevard • Greensboro, NC 27407 • T. 336-856-7150 • F: 336-856-7160 www.ecslimited.com ECS Carolinas, LLP • ECS Florida, LLC - ECS Mid -Atlantic, LLC , ECS Southeast, LLC ECS Texas, LLP Report of SO Mixture Assessment Robinhood Court Apartments Winston Salem, North Carolina ECS Project 09-18394-A November 19, 2010 CONCLUSIONS The soil material observed in the tali appears to be consistent the soil mixture tested by ECS.

First, I would like to say thank you to you and Robert Patterson for meeting with us on site to examine the progress to date and discuss how to move forward. Your comments and our responses as well as what was agreed to on site are as follows. 1. Condition 116 states the fallowing: "Upon completion of construction, prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a certification must be received from an appropriate designer for the system installed certifying that the facility has been installed in accordance with this permit, the approved plans and specifications, and other supporting documentation. " • A file review has indicated that an engineer's certification has not been received for Bioretention Cell #1 and Bioretention Cell #4. The Division is aware that Bioretention Cell #1 could not be constructed until it was no longer necessary as a sediment basin. Discussions with the Forsyth County inspections office has indicated that the project has been determined to be stable and therefore conversion to a permanent stormwater control structure must occur immediately. The owner has made the agreed to changes to Biocell #4. Our office will provide you and Robert with an As -Built plan and set of calculations by July 15th. Once these are approved I will provide a certification on this bocell. We are in the process of working on the permitting to turn Biocell #1 into a wet pond. I expect to have the paperwork for this to Robert early next week. I have the Owners assurances that as soon as we can get Robert's approval that construction will begin. I expect the construction to take no more than 60 days. I will be certifying this BMP as well. 2. Condition 11.6 of Permit No. SW4090401 states the following: "the facilities shall be constructed as shown on the approved plans. " The following violations were noted during the site inspection: • Bioretention Cell #4 was not located as shown on the approved plans. As indicated above we will turn in an As -Built set of plans and calculations. • The vegetated filter strip at Bioretention Cell 44 does not appear to be the approved length. I have measured this and the fitter strip is in compliance with the size on the approved plan. • There was no evidence of a trench drain around the tennis court as shown in the approved plans to direct runoff to Bioretention Cell #4. This trench drain has been installed and the Owner and the retaining wall has been turned back as we discussed on site. 4015 Meeting Way, Suite 105 • High Point, North Carolina 27265 • phone: 336-812-3546 o fax.• 336-812-8075 • Bioretention Cell #4 was missing the forebay as indicated in the approved plans. As discussed on site we will use the trench drain as the forebay and this will be reflected on the As -Built plans. • The roof drains behind building 7 do not drain to the infiltration trench as indicated on the approved plans. As you saw during our site visit this has already been accomplished. • The outlet structure (weir) of Bioretention Cell #3 appears to be at a similar elevation as the planting elevation and therefore not providing the approved storage volume/ponding depth. This weir has been adjusted to provide the required ponding. This was completed prior to the site visit. • The vegetated filter strip at Bioretention Cell #3 does not appear to be the approved length. The Owner has filled in the area near the creek as we agreed to during the site visit. He has also extended the length of the filter strip by removing some of the gravel at the level spreader and seeding that area as we discussed during your site visit, • The underdrain appears extend into the forebay of Bioretention Cell #3, which may allow the runoff to bypass the filter media. As we discussed during the site visit, the underdrain pipes in this are do not have holes in them. • The vegetation present in Bioretention Cell #2 and #3 does not match the approved planting plans. The owner has overseeded these areas and.will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • Observation wells were notpresent in all locations within Infiltration Trench 91 or Infiltration Trench #2. The owner had placed most of these observation wells prior to the site visit. The remainder of them have been put in place and are functioning. I have observed them, before a rain, after a rain (drawdown) and after drawdown. 3. Condition R 3 of Permit No. SW4090401 states the following: "The permittee shall at all time provide the operation and maintenance necessary to assure the permitted stormwater system functions at optimum efficiency. The following maintenance violations were noted during the site inspection: • There are areas within Bioretention Cell #2 that do not have sufficient vegetation. The owner has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • There are areas of built up debris within Bioretention Cell #2, particularly at the outlet area. Prior to the site visit, the debris had been removed. • It appears that the elevations in Bioretention Cell #2 are causing the cell to overflow across a low point in the perimeter berm rather than via the designed outlet. I have shot the elevations in this area and the berm at this point is high enough not to overtop in the design storm. • Perimeter slopes of Bioretention Cell #2 are insufficiently vegetated. The owner has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • The forebay of Bioretention Cell #2 is clogged with sediment and vegetation. Prior to the site visit, the sediment and vegetation had been removed and the forebay had been reconstructed. • Infiltration Trench #3 has received excessive sedimentation from erosion of the inlet swale. The sediment has been removed and new stone placed in the infiltration trench. • Infiltration Trench #3 is not properly draining. I have observed all of the biocells and infiltration trenches both 24 and 48 hours after a rain event and all of them are infiltrating as designed. • The vegetated filter strip below Infiltration Trench #3 is being bypassed by flow on both sides. As you saw during the site visit, the owner has constructed a berm on both sides of the filter to keep the water on the filter. This seems to have worked based on my recent site visits after rain events. • Portions of Infiltration Trench #1 and Infiltration 42 have been impacted by sediment which may be clogging the media. The owner has cleaned off the fabric covering the trenches. • A portion of Infiltration Trench 42 has been breached and has been inappropriately repaired with riprap. The trench is no longer providing the approved storage volume. As discussed on site, the owner has installed a retaining wall and repairing the breach. • Slopes up -gradient oflnfltration Trench #1 and Infiltration #2 are insufficiently vegetated. The owner has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. Stream Standard Violations: • Specifically, 15A NCAC 2B.0216 which references 15A NCAC 2B .0211 (3)69 which states: Oils; deleterious substances; colored or other wastes: only such amounts as shall not render the waters injurious to public health, secondary recreation or to aquatic life and wildlife or adversely affect the palatability offish, aesthetic quality or impair the waters for any designated uses; for the purpose of implementing this Rule, oils, deleterious substances, colored or other wastes shall include but not be limited to substances that cause a film or sheen upon or discoloration of the surface of the water or adjoining shorelines pursuant to 40 CFR 110.4(a)-(b) which are hereby incorporated by reference including any subsequent amendments and addition. The site investigation confirmed that as a result of the construction activities and subsequent failure of slopes behind buildings 7, 8 and 9 and below Infiltration Trench #2 sediment has been deposited in the stream. Approximately 200 feet of stream impacts to an unnamed tributary to Muddy Creek occurred as a result of the land disturbing activities at the subject site. These impacts represent a stream standard violation. As we discussed on site the Owner will seed this area down with the same riprarian mix we used on the other steam by the end of this week.

We recognize that the remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing. We acknowledge that the facts stipulated are essentially accurate and correct, but we ask that you give consideration to the circumstances associated with those events and the economic hardship and impact that the penalty will have on Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC, in particular, to complete the outstanding work to convert the TST (Biocell #4) to a wet pond. We respectfully request mitigation of the civil penalties imposed based on the following facts: The failure of Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC to provide the designers certification for Bioretention Cell #4 resulted from, in art the designer's failure to complete and timely submit the certification. Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC had engaged the site contractor, Rick Mabe Grading to construct Bioretention Cell 44. Westcott, Small and Associates as the site designer was engaged to inspect and approve the construction of this Bioretention Cell as well as the other storm water management systems on site. During the early part of November, 2010 the Bioretention Cell was completed. Prior to the onset of construction, Westcott, Small and Associates was consulted to obtain approval to permit a variance in the location of the Bioretention Cell because of the inability to situate the Cell as shown on the plans. We were advised by Westcott, Small and Associates that a minor shift in the location of the Cell would be OK provided that the overall characteristics of the Bioretention Cell were in accord with the approved design. Based on this assurance we gave authorization to the site contractor to make a relatively small shift in the location because topographic and space limitations would not have permitted construction of the Bioretention Cell as shown on the plans. As part of the construction process, we had Westcott, Small inspect the construction of the Cell and in particular to witness the installation of the underground drainage system. While representatives from Westcott, Small and Associates were on sit occasions Burin the construction of this Cell, their firm experienced staff changes during this time which in our opinion,_re rn a 51ip--up io the completion of the paperwork, but more importantly in not noting a construction -error by --the site co c or. Sp-- ica y, with regard to the timeliness of the certification of this Bioretention Cell, construction was completed in November 2010 and as set forth in ECS Carolinas, LLP letter of November 19, 2010, the soil mixture of the Bioretention Cell was analyzed and approved. A copy of this letter was forwarded to Westcott, Small and Associates as what was believed to be the final information required by Westcott for their certification. Unfortunately, for whatever reason Westcott, Small did not receive or act upon this notice and no certification was prepared or submitted to DWQ. The apparent discrepancy in the detail of construction of Bioretention Cell #4 was not noted by our representative, the design engineer, the general contractor of the project (Windsor Contracting), or the site contractor. it was not until the May 19, 2011 DWQ staff inspection that anyone realized that the Bioretention Cell was missing the forebay. As noted in Mr. Westcott's letter of July 6, 2011 Ms. Sue Homewood and Mr. Westcott agreed to use the trench drain as the forbay. Mr. Westcott accordingly modified the plans to reflect this change and the modified plans were approved by DENR. Accordingly, no changes to the Bloretention Cell were required and the Cell as constructed was approved. Mr. Westcott certified this Bioretention Cell on August 8, 2011 after obtaining a final set of approved plans by DNER . We respectfully are asking for mitigation of the civil penalty imposed by DWQ for 1) failing to install the Bioretention Cell prior to the operation of this facility and 2) failure to install the Bioretention Cell in accordance with the permit approved plans. We have acted in good faith to complete the facility timely and the failure to have the facility certified resulted in part from others failure as well. We trust that you will give consideration to the fact that the final approved drawings of the Bioretention Cell did not require any modification to the Bioretention Cell itself. The Bioretention Cell was completed before the November 19, 2010 soil assessment by ECS Carolinas, LLP. Accordingly, the Bioretention Cell was technically functioning in November 2010. Even the french drain around the tennis court that Ms. Homes ewoodthe presence. of was installed at the time that the Bioretention Cell was constructed, but was not noticed on DWQ May 29, 2011 visit. 2. We believe that the record will show that Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC responded quickly to address those items set forth in the May 31, 2011 NOV. In fact, prior to the receipt of the NOV on June 1, 2011, one of Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC staff members learned of DWQ site visit and their concerns. He alerted Mr. Wayne Freeman, Director of Maintenance at BSC Holdings, to make him aware of the issues noted by DWQ staff. Once these issues were called to our attention we engaged Westcott, Small and Associates, the site designer to conduct a site assessment and to advise us on a course of action to address the concerns correctly and appropriately. After a field inspection Mr, Westcott advised that we address all of the situations except the variance in construction of Bioretention Cell #4 and the breach of Infiltration Trench #2. Mr. Westcott wanted to meet with Ms. Sue Homewood to review these situations firsthand and agree on a course of action, We believe that when you read Mr. Westcott's letter of July 6, 2011 to Ms. Homewood that it is clear that we responded very quickly to address each and everyone of the concerns set out in the NOV. Some of the issues set forth in the NOV actually were not issues as pointed out by Mr. Westcott, such as the nth of the vegetative filter stri at BioretegtiQU Cell #4 tP uncler-a�rains extending into the forebay at Bioretention Cell #3, the elevations_ in Bioretention_ Cell #2 not being high enough, and Infiltration Trench ---#3 nordrainm roperly, Irregardless, Robinhood Court Apartment Homes took these issues seriously an at considerable expense addressed all of the issues set out in the NOV without any hesitation. Once Mr. Westcott and Ms. Homewood came to agreement on the course of action for the repair of the breach of infiltration Trench #2 and the required revision of the drawings for Bioretention Cell #4, work was commenced and proceeded diligently. I do want to point out that with Mr. Westcott's concurrence we suggested what was considered a permanent fix to the breach area of the infiltration trench, despite the substantial cost involved in taking such an approach. As of this date we believe that each and every one of the issues set forth in the NOV have been addressed with�vxception-of-converting-th,- in We have just received an approved set of plans (dated 5epttwbRr2Q_z011)-and_have-4entthe-plans to -sepriprictrig tit-isourintentto-startwork-on-the -wet -pond-shorNy- 3, We believe that the breach of Infiltration Trench #2 was inadvertent. First of all, we recognize that Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC is the record owner of this complex and as such is ultimately responsible. However, in fairness, we want to point out that we, like everyone else, rely upon others to undertake and complete in a professional manner those tasks that we have entrusted them to perform. Accordingly, we had entrusted our design engineer to design the embankment of this infiltration trench to withstand anticipated rain events of exceptional magnitude, we entrusted the site contractor to construct the infiltration trench in accord with the designer's details, we entrusted the general contractor who had the responsibility to oversee all construction/site development on the site, and we certainly entrusted the design engineer when he certified the construction of this infiltration trench in April 2009. Unfortunately, something went wrong and a small portion of the trench gave way leading to a sedimentation impact to the unnamed tributary to Muddy Creek. We recognize and agree that our staff may have failed to detect any telltale signs of a potential failure or erosion in the trench at the area of the breach. The fact that other areas of the trench did not exhibit any telltale signs of possible failure or eroding would gyM t that we ached area ar that the account unforeseen factors that could have exerted additional stress in the location that ultimately failed. Since the NOV we had, with our designer engineers assistance and with concurrence of DWQ, built an embankment that should certainly preclude failure in the future. Furthermore, we have "passed on the heat" to our maintenance staff to do a better job of inspecting and taking preventive measures to avoid situations in the future and to be more religious in their inspection of all of the storm water management features. As setforth in Mr. Westcott's letter of July 6, 2011, and as further attested to by his certification of Bioretention Cell #4, and undoubtedly by Ms. Homewood subsequent,visits to the site, Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC has undertaken at great expense all actions to address those items enumerated in the NOV. Such ex enses included nearly $10,000 in engineering fees to Westcott, Small and Associates and a similar expenditure to address those items o e sa is ac ion of DW a have recently em er 0, 20 11j obtained approval by DENR to convert the TST to a wet pond. We have forwarded copies of the plans to various site contractors to obtain a bid to undertake the work. While not all contractors have yet responded, the bid amounts have come in far above our expectations. In fact, the latest bid we received 4; approximately $40,000 which does not include planting of the shelf area or seeding of the pond. Regar less of where the final costs comes in this additional expenditure will create financial hardship on Robinhood Court Apartment Homes. Robinhood Court Apartment Homes does not have any funding available and would have to procure financing from other sources to complete this work. We recognize that this work must be done and done timely in accord with the representation made by Mr. Westcott to DWQ in his letter of July 6, 2011. Having to find an additional $16,377.61 tisfy the civil assessment imposed by DW o_the-fiaa Robin rt A artment Homes which is now just fulfilling its financial obligations to its lenders as well as to the timely payment all of the property's operating costs. Frankly, we do not know how we can handle both obligations at this time unless we obtain financing from other sources which is difficult to do in this fiscal environment. Accordingly, we request remission of the civil penalty so that we may endeavor to pay the mitigated amount and be able to timely undertake the work required to convert the TST to a wet pond. Accordingly, we respectfully ask that you take all of these factors into consideration. We recognize our responsibility but ask that you give substantial consideration to everything that we have willingly done to address the situation in a timely and responsible manner.

Our services were provided in general accordance with ECS Proposal No. 09-17027-P. PROJECT V RVIEW ECS has conducted a soil mixture assessment of the bio-retention cell at the Robinhood Court Apartments located on Robinhood Road in Winston Salem, North Carolina. The bio-retention cell was installed adjacent to the tennis courts along Robinhood Road. The purpose was to determine If the soil mixture is consistent with the engineer's recommendation. OF WORK On November 19, 2010, ECS conducted an assessment of the soil mixture of the bio-retention cell installed adjacent to the tennis courts at the Robinhood Court Apartments located on Robinhood Road in Winston Salem, North Carolina. This assessment was conducted with a hand auger in accordance with current soil science practices and technology and the soil criteria found in the USDA Field Book for Describing and Sampling Soils, Version 2.0, A control sample provided by the client was tested by ECS. Two soil borings were drilled to 20 to 30 inches below ground surface (bgs). The texture of the soil mixture is sandy loam. The texture and material appear to be consistent with the control sample. Moisture content was consistent throughout. the boring. Based on the soil mixture properties and characteristics, the permeablilty ranges from 0.6 to 2.0 inches per hour. 4811 Koger Boulevard Greensboro, NC 27407 • T: 336-856-7150 F: 336-856-7160 • wmv.ecslimited.com ECS Carolinas, LLP • ECS Florida, LLC ECS Mid -Atlantic, LLC ECS Southeast, LLC ECS Taxas, LLP Report of Soil Mixture Assessment Robinhood Court Apartments Winston Salem, North Carolina ECS Project 09-18394-A November 19, 2010 CONCLUSIONS The soil material observed in the cell appears to be consistent the soil mixture tested by ECS.

Poulos, LSS, PWS Principai Scientist July 6, 2011 Sue Homewood North Carolina Division of Water Quality 585 Waughtown Street Winston-Salem, NC 27107 Re: Robinhood Court Apartment Homes NOV Dear Ms. Homewood: 1 ,estcott; Small ,associates, PLLC I am writing on behalf of my client BCS Holdings, the developer of the above referenced project. First, 1 would like to say thank you to you and Robert Patterson for meeting with us on site to examine the progress to date and discuss how to move forward. Your comments and our responses as well as what was agreed to on site are as follows. 1. Condition 116 states the following: "Upon completion of construction, prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a certification must be received from an appropriate designer for the system installed certifying that the facility has been installed in accordance with this permit, the approved plans and specifications, and other supporting documentation. " • A file review has indicated that an engineer's certification has not been received for Bioretention Cell #1 and Bioretention Cell #4. The Division is aware that Bioretention Cell #1 could not be constructed until it was no longer necessary as a sediment basin. Discussions with the Forsyth County inspections office has indicated that the project has been determined to be stable and therefore conversion to a permanent stormwater control structure must occur immediately. The owner has made the agreed to changes to Biocell #4. Our office will provide you and Robert with an As -Built plan and set of calculations by July 15th. Once these are approved I will provide a certification on this biocell. We are in the process of working on the permitting, to turn Biocell #.1 into a wet pond. I expect to have the paperwork for this to Robert early next week. I have the Owners assurances that as soon as we can get Robert's a2proval that construction will be in. i expect the construction t Ke no more than 60 days. I ill be certifying this MP as well. 2. Condition 11.6 of Permit No. SW4090401 states the following: "the facilities shall be constructed as shown on the approved plans. " The following violations were noted during the site inspection: • Bioretention Cell #4 was not located as shown on the approved plans. As indicated above we will turn in an As -Built set of plans and calculations. • The vegetated filter strip at Bioretention Cell #4 does not appear to be the approved length. I have measured this and the filter strip is in compliance with the size on the approved plan. • There was no evidence of a trench drain around the tennis court as shown in the approved plans to direct runoff to Bioretention Cell 94. This trench drain has been installed and the Owner and the retaining wall has been turned back as we discussed on site. 4015 Meeting Way, Suite 105 a High Point, North Carolina 27265 • phone:336-812-3546 • fax: 336-812-8075 • Bioretention Cell #4 was missing the forebay as indicated in the approved plans. As discussed on site we will use the trench drain as the forebay and this will be reflected on the As -Built plans, • The roof drains behind building 7 do not drain to the infiltration trench as indicated on the approved plans. As you saw during our site visit this has already been accomplished. • The outlet structure (weir) of Bioretention Cell #3 appears to be at a similar elevation as the planting elevation and therefore not providing the approved storage volumelponding depth. This weir has been adjusted to provide the required ponding. This was completed prior to the site visit. • The vegetated f lter strip at Bioretention Cell #3 does not appear to be the approved length. The Owner has filled in the area near the creek as we agreed to during the site visit. He has also extended the length of the filter strip by removing some of the gravel at the level spreader and seeding that area as we discussed during your site visit. • The underdrain appears extend into the forebay of Bioretention Cell #3, which may allow the runoff to bypass the filter media. As we discussed during the site visit, the underdrain pipes in this are do not have holes in them. • The vegetation present in Bioretention Cell #2 and #3 does not match the approved planting plans, The owner has overseeded these areas and.will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • Observation wells were not present in all locations within Infiltration Trench 91 or Infiltration Trench 42. The owner had placed most of these observation wells prior to the site visit. The remainder of them have been put in place and are functioning. I have observed them, before a rain, after a rain (drawdown) and after drawdown. 3. Condition 1I.3 of Permit No. SW4090401 states the following: "The permittee shall at all time provide the operation and maintenance necessary to assure the permitted stormwater system functions at optimum efficiency. The following maintenance violations were noted during the site inspection: • There are areas within Bioretention Cell 92 that do not have sufficient vegetation. The owner has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will,germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • There are areas of built up debris within Bioretention Cell #2, particularly at the outlet area. Prior to the site visit, the debris had been removed. • It appears that the elevations in Bioretention Cell 92 are causing the cell to overflow across a low point in the perimeter berm rather than via the designed outlet. I have shot the elevations in this area and the berm at this point is high enough not to overtop in the design storm. • Perimeter slopes of Bioretention Cell #2 are insufficiently vegetated. The owner has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • The forebay of Bioretention Cell #2 is clogged with sediment and vegetation. Prior to the site visit, the sediment and vegetation had been removed and the forebay had been reconstructed. • Infiltration Trench 43 has received excessive sedimentation from erosion of the inlet swale. The sediment has been removed and new stone placed in the infiltration trench. • Infiltration Trench 43 is not properly draining. I have observed all of the biocells and infiltration trenches both 24 and 48 hours -after a rain event and all of them are infiltrating as designed. • The vegetated filter strip below Infiltration Trench #3 is being bypassed by flow on both sides. As you saw during the site visit, the owner has constructed a berm on both sides of the filter to keep the water on the filter. This seems to have worked based on my recent site visits after rain events. Portions of Infiltration Trench #1 and Infiltration #2 have been impacted by sediment which may be clogging the media. The owner has cleaned off the fabric covering the trenches. A portion of Infiltration Trench lit has been breached and has been inappropriately repaired with riprap. The trench is no longer providing the approved storage volume. As discussed on site, the owner has installed a retaining wall and repairing the breach. Slopes up -gradient oflnfiltration Trench #1 and Infiltration #2 are insufficiently vegetated. The owner - has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. Stream Standard Violations: • Specifically, 15A NCAC 2B.0216 which references 15A NCAC 2B .0211 (3)0) which states: Oils; deleterious substances; colored or other wastes: only such amounts as shall not render the waters injurious to public health, secondary recreation or to aquatic life and wildlife or adversely affect the palatability offish, aesthetic quality or impair the waters for any designated uses; for the purpose of implementing this Rule, oils, deleterious substances, colored or other wastes shall include but not be limited to substances that cause a film or sheen upon or discoloration of the surface of the water or adjoining shorelines pursuant to 40 CFR 110,4(a)-(b) which are hereby incorporated by reference including any subsequent amendments and addition. The site investigation confirmed that as a result of the construction activities and subsequent failure of slopes behind buildings 7, 8 and 9 and below Infiltration Trench 42 sediment has been deposited in the stream. Approximately 200 feet of stream impacts to an unnamed tributary to Muddy Creek occurred as a. result of the land disturbing activities at the subject site. These impacts represent a stream standard violation: As we discussed on site the Owner will seed this area down with the same riprarian mix we used on the other steam by the and of this week.

Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC is the owner of record of Robinhood Court Apartments, located on Robinhood Road in Forsyth County, North Carolina. B.

On October 12, 2009, Robinhood Court Apartment Homes, LLC was issued Stormwater Management Permit No. SW4090401 Modification (hereby known as SW4090401 MOD) for a high density stormwater management system for the Robinhood Court Apartment Homes site in accordance with North Carolina Session Law 2006-246 and Title 15A NCAC 02H .1000. Stormwater Management Permit No. SW4090401 MOD will expire on April 14, 2019. D. On May 19, 2011, DWQ staff conducted a routine site inspection and observed that Bioretention Cell #4 had been constructed, roads and apartment buildings had been constructed and the apartment buildings were occupied; however, a DWQ file review indicated that the designer's certification for Bioretention Cell #4 had not been received by DWQ. E. Permit No. SW4090401 MOD states the following: Part II Schedule of Compliance No. 7.

First, I would like to say thank you to you and Robert Patterson for meeting with us on site to examine the progress to date and discuss how to move forward. Your comments and our responses as well as what was agreed to on site are as follows. 1. Condition 116 states the following: "Upon completion of construction, prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a certification must be received from an appropriate designer far the system installed certifying that the facility has been installed in accordance with this permit, the approved plans and specifications, and other supporting documentation. " • A file review has indicated that an engineer's certification has not been received for Bioretention Cell 91 and Bioretention Cell 94. The Division is aware that Bioretention Cell 01 could not be constructed until it was no longer necessary as a sediment basin. Discussions with the Forsyth County inspections office has indicated that the project has been determined to be stable and therefore conversion to a permanent stormwater control structure mast occur immediately. The owner has made the agreed to changes to Biocell #4. Our office will provide you and Robert with an As -Built plan and set of calculations by July 15th. Once these are approved I will provide a certification on this biocell. We are in the process of working on the permitting to turn Biocell # l into a wet pond. I expect to have the paperwork for this to Robert early next week. I have the Owners assurances that as soon as we can get Robert's approval that construction will begin. I expect the construction to take no more than 60 days. I will be certifying this BMP as well. 2. Condition 11.6 of Permit Mo. SYi'4090401 states the following: "the facilities shall be constructed as shown on the approved plans." The following violations were noted during the site inspection: • Bioretention Cell 94 was not located as shown on the approved plans. As indicated above we will turn in an As -Built set of plans and calculations. • The vegetated filter strip at Bioretention Cell 94 does not appear to be the approved length. I have measured this and the filter strip is in compliance with the size on the approved plan. • There was no evidence of a trench drain around the tennis court as shown in the approved plans to direct runoff to Bioretention Cell 94. This trench drain has been installed and the Owner and the retaining wail has been turned back as we discussed on site. 40151vieeting Way, suite.105 4 Higlf Point, North Carolina 27265 • phone: 336-812-3546 i fg,).:336-812.8075 • Bioretention Cell 94 was missing the forebay as indicated in the approved plans. As discussed on site we will use the trench drain as the forebay and this will be reflected on the As -Built plans. • The roof drains behind building 7 do not drain to the infiltration trench as indicated on the approved plans. As you saw during our site visit this has already been accomplished. • The outlet structure (weir) of Bioretention Cell 43 appears to be at a similar elevation as the planting elevation and therefore not providing the approved storage volume/ponding depth. This weir has been adjusted to provide the required ponding. This was completed prior to the site visit. • The vegetated filter strip at Bioretention Cell 43 does not appear to be the approved length. The Owner has filled in the area near the creek as we agreed to during the site visit. He has also extended the length of the filter strip by removing some of the gravel at the level spreader and seeding that area as we discussed during your site visit. • The underdrain appears extend into the forebay of Bioretention Cell 93, which may allow the runoff to bypass the filter media. As we discussed during the site visit, the underdrain pipes in this are do not have holes in them. • The vegetation present in Bioretention Cell 92 and 93 does not match the approved planting plans. The owner has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • Observation wells were not present in all locations within Infiltration Trench 41 or Infiltration Trench 42. The owner had placed most of these observation wells prior to the site visit. The remainder of them have been put in place and are functioning. I have observed them, before a rain, after a rain {drawdown} and after drawdown. Condition 11.3 of Permit No. SW4090401 states the following: "The permittee shall at all time provide the operation and maintenance necessary to assure the permitted stormwater system functions at optimum efficiency. The following maintenance violations were noted during the site inspection: • There are areas within Bioretention Cell 92 that do not have sufficient vegetation. The owner has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • There are areas of built up debris within Bioretention Cell 42, particularly at the outlet area. Prior to the site visit, the debris had been removed. • It appears that the elevations in Bioretention Cell 92 are causing the cell to overflow across a low point in the perimeter berm rather than via the designed outlet. 1 have shot the elevations in this area and the berm at this point is high enough not to overtop in the design storm. • Perimeter slopes of Bioretention Cell 92 are insufficiently vegetated. The owner has overseeded these areas and wil l continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. • The forebay of Bioretention Cell #2 is clogged with sediment and vegetation. Prior to the site visit, the sediment and vegetation had been removed and the forebay had been reconstructed. • Infiltration Trench #3 has received excessive sedimentation from erosion of the inlet swale. The sediment has been removed and new stone placed in the infiltration trench. • Infiltration Trench 43 is not properly draining. I have observed all of the biocells and infiltration trenches both 24 and 48 hours after a rain event and al I of them are infiltrating as designed. • The vegetated filter strip below Infiltration Trench 43 is being bypassed by flow on both sides. As you saw during the site visit, the owner has constructed a berm on both sides of the filter to keep the water on the filter. This seems to have worked based on my recent site visits after rain events. Portions of Infiltration Trench 41 and Infiltration 92 have been impacted by sediment which may be clogging the media. The owner has cleaned off the fabric covering the trenches. A portion of Infiltration Trench 42 has been breached and has been inappropriately repaired with riprap. The trench is no longer providing the approved storage volume. As discussed on site, the owner has installed a retaining wall and repairing the breach. Slopes up -gradient oflnjiltration Trench 91 and Infiltration 92 are insufficiently vegetated. The owner has overseeded these areas and will continue to overseed until grass is better established. We have some concerns about how well the seeding will germinate given the season. This fall we should be able to address this completely but the Owner will continue to overseed until this is addressed. Stream Standard Violations: Specifically, 1 5A NCAC 2B.0216 which references 1 5A NCAC 2B .0211 (3)(1) which states: Oils; deleterious substances; colored or other wastes: only such amounts as shall not render the waters injurious to public health, secondary recreation or to aquatic life and wildlife or adversely affect the palatability offish, aesthetic quality or impair the waters for any designated uses; for the purpose of implementing this Rule, oils, deleterious substances, colored or other wastes shall include but not be limited to substances that cause a film or sheen upon or discoloration of the surface of the water or adjoining shorelines pursuant to 40 CFR 110.4(a)-(b) which are hereby incorporated by reference including any subsequent amendments and addition. The site investigation confirmed that as a result of the construction activities and subsequent failure of slopes behind buildings 7, 8 and 9 and below Infiltration Trench 42 sediment has been deposited in the stream. Approximately 200 feet of stream impacts to an unnamed tributary to Muddy Creek occurred as a result of the land disturbing activities at the subject site. These impacts represent a stream standard violation. As we discussed on site the Owner will seed this area down with the same riprarian mix we used on the other steam by the end of this week.

The site investigation confirmed that as a result of the construction activities and subsequent failure of slopes behind buildings 7, 8 and 9 and below Infiltration Trench #2 sediment has been deposited in the stream. Approximately 200 feet of stream impacts to an unnamed tributary to Muddy Creek occurred as a result of the land disturbing activities at the subject site. These impacts represent a stream standard violation. Page 6 of 7 Mr. Barry Siegal May 31, 2011 Forsyth County Requested Response This Office requests that you respond to this letter in writing within 15 days of receipt of this Notice. Your response should be sent to both this office at the letterhead address and to the attention of Mrs. Karen Higgins at the Wetlands and Stormwater Branch, Wetlands, Buffers, Stormwater Compliance and Permitting Unit, 1617 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699- 1617. Your response should address the following items: Please clearly indicate what efforts you have taken to stabilize the site to prevent off -site sedimentation. The site inspection noted that the silt fence adjacent to the stream on the slope behind buildings has not been maintained and that the slope is not stable. Regardless of the status of an approved erosion control plan, this issue should be addressed immediatelv in order to avoid additional stream standard violations. In addition, the area adjacent to the failed Infiltration Trench #2 should be immediately stabilized until repaired and restored. The site inspection noted that the remaining sediment basin has not been recently maintained. During the inspection staff noted the basin was extremely full, the skimmer did not appear to be working properly to drain the basin, and the outlet pipe could not be located to inspect for any signs of clogging. The basin should be maintained and repaired immediately. Failure of the sediment basin will result in multiple stream standard violations. 3. An engineer's evaluation of all items listed as violations of Condition II.6 of Permit No. SW4090401 above. 4. A comprehensive corrective action plan to address all items listed as violations of Condition H.3 of Permit No. SW4090401. 5. An engineer's certification for Bioretention Cell #4. Page 7 of 7 Mr. Barry Siegal May 31, 2011 Forsyth County Thank you for your attention to this matter. This Office is considering sending a recommendation for enforcement to the Director of the Division of Water Quality regarding these issues and any future/continued violations that may be encountered. Your above -mentioned response to this correspondence will be considered in this process. This office requires that the violations, as detailed above, be abated immediately.

I of 1 4/ 13/2009 1; l l I'M Irl Robinhood Manor Apartment Homes Watershed Narrative Robinhood Manor Apartment Homes is a 28.16 acre development in Forsyth to NC, it is not located within a protected watershed and is not in the City limits of Winston-Salem. The requirement for a 401/404 makes water quality control a requirement for this site. APR D NR -' WATEi� "ALI The site has been broken up into 6 sub -basins, each with its own water quality device. Three of the BMPs are Infiltration Trenches and three are Bioretention Cells. Attached you will find calculations, supplements, O&M agreements and plans for each BMP. You will also find subsurface exploration reports for the areas of each BMP and those results have been included in this narrative. Infiltration Trench #1 Infiltration Trench #1 (IT1) is indicated on the watershed drainage area map as the northern most yellow drainage area. It is a long narrow infiltration trench that runs along the side of a slope. The drainage area for IT] is 3.71 acres with an impervious surface of 1.95 acres. The calculations can be found in the calculations packet. Water enters the infiltration trench has two sections connected by a 24" pipe. This configuration is used to keep the distance from down stream waters greater than 30'. The filter strip is longer that the combined requirement for the two infiltration trenches combined. The Stormwater Infiltration Report from the Catena group (Attached) indicates the infiltration rate for trenches I and 2 to be 0.64 in/hr. The S&EC subsurface exploration report for this area indicates that the seasonal high water table is greater than 84" deep which puts it at greater than 2' deeper than our bottom of trench which is 60". There is an indication of rock on two of the borings. One measurement is at 48" and the other at 80". Currently the infiltration trench has been excavated and is currently being used as a sediment trap. Rocks were found in the excavation but mass rock was not which would indicate that the refusal was on a smaller rock and not on mass rock. Infiltration Trench #2 IT2 is indicated on the watershed drainage area map as the northern most green drainage area. It is another long narrow infiltration trench along the same hillside. The drainage area is 2.98 acres with 1.45 acres of impervious surface. Again, the calculations are included in the calculations packet. Water enters the trench by way of a forebay which serves as pre-treatment. The forebay is isolated from the rest of the trench by 5' thick earthen walls which serve as the weir for the water to enter the actual infiltration trench. A bypass yard inlet has been provided to pass storms greater than the design storm and leads to a grass filter strip that is shared with IT1. The overflow yard inlet from IT2 flows into the overflow box for IT1 and is then sent to the filter strip. The filter strip is longer that the combined requirement for the two infiltration trenches combined. The Stormwater Infiltration Report from the Catena group (Attached) indicates the infiltration rate for trenches I and 2 to be 0.64 in/hr. The S&EC subsurface exploration report for this area indicates that the seasonal high water table is greater than 84" deep which puts it at greater than 2' deeper than our bottom of trench which is 60". There is an in icationECEIVED N.C. Deot, of EW+ MAY 15 2009 Winstom5aiam. Rc.&nal ice of rock on borings 2 and 3. One measurement is at 18" and the other at 12". We have stopped the trench short of the location of boring 44. Currently the infiltration trench has been excavated and is currently being used as a sediment trap. Rocks were found in the excavation but mass rock was not which would indicate that the refusal was on a smaller rock and not on mass rock. As requested we have included a note on the master watershed/final grading plan that the ISA from buildings 6-8 be directed to infiltration trench 92. Infiltration Trench 93 Infiltration "french #3 (IT3) is indicated on the watershed drainage area map as the blue drainage area. It is located adjacent to buildings 25 and 26. Again a note on the master watershed/final grading; plan indicates that all ISA from the buildings is to be directed into IT3. The drainage area is 0.96 acres with 0.39 acres of impervious surface. Again, the calculations are included in the calculations packet. Water enters the trench by way ol'a forebay which serves as pre-treatment. Once the forebay fills with water it overflows into the infiltration trench. Flows over the design now overflow the infiltration trench into a level spreader and grass filter strip. The Stormwater Infiltration Report from the Catena group (Attached) indicates the infiltration rate to be 0.84 in/hr. The S&EC subsurface exploration report for this area indicates that the seasonal high water table is greater than 84" deep which puts it at greater than 2' deeper than our bottom of trench which is 60". There is no mention of rock. The site is currently a sedbasin and there has been no indication of either seasonable high water table of rock in the excavation. Bioretention Cell #1 Bioretention Cell # 1 (BC I) is indicated on the watershed drainage area map as red drainage area. Located near the entrance of the complex the drainage area for BC is 8.29 acres with an impervious surface of 3.80 acres. The calculations can be found in the calculations packet. This is a grass bioretention cell with an underdrain. We are not using this cell for infiltration. Water enters the trench through two forebays that act a pre-treatment. The forebays overflow into the BC2 as distributed sheet flow. The cell is constructed of 2' of planting soil mix (specification and detail is on sheet C-10A) covering 4" of washed sand. Under the washed sand is 30" of stone encased in filter fabric. The underdrain system is encased in the washed stone. flows exceeding the design flow exit the basin through a weir that leads to a level spreader and a grass filter strip. The weir, grass filter strip, and level spreader have been sized to accommodate the 10 year storm. This cell has been excavated and is currently serving as a sedbasin for the project. The sediment basin is currently excavated and with the contractors help several holes were dug to look for seasonal high water table and bedrock and I verified that neither was found to the 768 elevation. Bioretention Cell 42 131oretention Cell 42 (BC2) is indicated on the watershed drainage area map as the southern most yellow drainage area. Located near the back of the complex the drainage area for BC2 is 2.92 acres with an impervious surface of 1.09 acres. The calculations can be found in the calculations packet. This is a grass bioretention cell with an underdrain. We are not using this cell for infiltration. Water enters the trench through a forebay that 01 acts as pre-treatment. The forebay overflows into the BC2 as distributed sheet flow. The cell is constructed of 2' of planting soil mix (specification and detail is on sheet C-1 OL) covering 4" of washed sand. Under the washed sand is 24" of stone encased in filter fabric. The underdrain system is encased in the washed stone. Flows exceeding the design flow exit the basin through a weir that leads to a level spreader and a grass filter strip. The weir, grass filter strip, and level spreader have been sized to accommodate the 10 year storm. Since site was previously to be used for infiltration we do have an infiltration rate from the Catena Group report of'O.004. Clearly this is unacceptable for infiltration and the BMP was changed to bioretention. This site is currently in use as a sedbasin. Again with the contractors help I verified the seasonal high water table to be below 805.00 in the area. A note on the master watershed/final grading plan indicates that all ISA from the buildings 21 and 22 is to be directed into BC2. Bioretention Cell #3 Bioretention Cell 43 (BC3) is indicated on the watershed drainage area map as the southern most green drainage area. Located near the back of the complex the drainage area for BC3 is 0.46 acres with an impervious surface of 0.37 acres. The calculations can be found in the calculations packet. This is a grass bioretention cell with an underdrain. We are not using this cell for infiltration. Water enters the trench through a forebay that acts as pre-treatment. The forebay overflows into the BC3. The cell is constructed of 2' ofplanting soil mix (specification and detail is on sheet C-IOF) covering 4" of washed sand. Under the washed sand is 24" of stone encased in filter fabric. The underdrain system is encased in the washed stone. Flows exceeding the design flow exit the basin through a weir that leads to a level spreader and a grass filter strip. The weir, grass filter strip, and level spreader have been sized to accommodate the 10 year storm. Since site was previously to be used for infiltration we do have an infiltration rate from the Catena Group report of 0.20. Clearly this is unacceptable for infiltration and the BMP was changed to bioretention. Again with the contractors help I verified the seasonal high water table to be below 824.50 in the area. Flow from the parking lot enters the forebay through a flume placed in the sidewalk. .�N GARpz o ss�oy. 9 :� � , _ SEAL = i 02ftegeo � s ` 00 �'y9FC B. w�,,••• ,',,,,1,,,10,, Associates, PLLC Date: April 2, 2009 To: Robert Patterson, PE From: Michael B.

Attn: Barry Segal Q.O. Box 8306 Greensboro, NIC 27419 Re:' Detailed Soils Evaluation Report for a Stormwater Infiltration Device, Pr Robinhood Residential Development, Robinhood Road, Winston-Salem, County, North -Carolina. Dear tNlr. Segal: Soil,-',,, Environmental,Colisultants, PA (S&EC) has performed a"detailed soils evaluation in the proposed stormwater infiltration'areas at the site located adjacent to Robinhood Road in Forsyth County, NC. A leap showing the location of the proposed stormwater infiltration areas was'provided to us by the project engineer. There are two stonmwater infiltration basins and two infiltration trenches proposed for this site. At the indicated locations the following activities were performed: soil morphology profile descriptions to seven feet, and estimation of permeability, hydraulic conductivity, and determination of soil depth in relation to seasonal high water table and/or bedrock. The purpose of this evaluation was to provide you with additional information for designing these stormwater infiltration devices. The following is a brief report of the methods utilized in this evaluation and the results obtained. Soil/Site Evaluation A site evaluation was performed by Walter Cole, Sarah Menser (NCLSS and NCSSIT) to acquire the information you needed. The evaluation was performed by making hand auger borings to a depth of seven feet at various locations within the proposed infiltration basin and trench areas, which were located with. a GPS receiver and are shown on the attached map and identifying and recording the soil morphological conditions at those locations in order to develop soil profile descriptions, which are also included with this report and shown on the attached map. The results of our evaluation are listed below. Seasonal High Water `!"able / Depth to Bedrock E VI-11L ntian �a m Ct` Sry Under current reguliations, the bottom of any infiltration device shall not be placed in locations with less than 2 feet between the bottom of the infiltration device and a RF-CEIVED seasonal high groundwater €I5A NCAC• 02H .1008 (d) (3)], underlying impervi L soif.C.

Soil Borings 1, 4 were at various locations within the proposed 42" as shown on the attached map. Soil Boring 1 had a seasonal high water table based on soil morphology (munsell color) and depth to bedrock based on auger refusal, that was >84". However, Soil Borings 2 & 3 were both shallow to bedrock and we had auger refusal at 18'and.12" respectively. Soil Boring 4 had a seasonal high water table that . was 30 inches from the soil surface, as a result of the perching effect of the underlying clay subsoil with expansive mineralogy. Soil Borings 5-7 were at various locations within the proposed "Infiltration-Treilelr #I` as shown on the attached map. Soil Boring 5 & 6 had a seasonal high water table based on soil morphology (munsell color) and depth to bedrock based on auger refusal that was >80". However, Soil Boring 6 had auger refusal at 40", and depending.on the proposed depth of the stormwater device, may be too shallow for use. Soil Boring 4 had a seasonal high water table that was 30 inches from the soil surface. Soil Borings 8 & 9 were within the proposed."Infiltration Basiu #3 & 411 respectively, as shown on the attached map. Both Soil Borings 8 Sc 9 had a seasonal high water table based on soil morphology (munsell color) and depth to bedrock based on auger refusal that was >84". Please note that some borings with low chroma colors in the C horizon were the result of weathered parent material (saprolite) and are relic in nature and not indicative of seasonal high water table. The apparent (observed) water table was not measurable, however this is just a "snap- shot" measurement; the reality is that the actual seasonal high water table is most likely deeper than what is observed by soil color, especially with adjacent development but shallower than was is observed by apparent water table. The only way to accurately determine the seasonal high water table is to do put in test wells, monitor the site, and perform a water table assessment. This service can be provided by our firm if requested. Therefore, based on our evaluation the soil conditions on -site seem favorable with respect to seasonal high water table and depth to bedrock for the areas with the proposed infiltration basins 3 & 4 are located, however conditions are limiting in the areas where the infiltration trenches 1 & I are proposed. The depth to bedrock, and ill one case seasonal high water table, is a limiting factor in designing a stonmwater device. Along the length of the proposed infiltration trenches, there were areas with greater than 50-60% slope, that were located on complex topographic contours that were most likely the result of underlying bedrock protrusions, that would Correspond to our field findings, and that would make the design and installation of infiltration trenches difficult. Pei-me:rbility/l-lydr,-itilic Conductivity Estimation Under current regulations, soils underlying a stormwater infiltration device must have a minimum infiltration rate of 0.52 inches per hour or greater [ 15A NCAC 02H .1008 (d} (6)]. Based on our evaluation, most all soil borings bad subsurface horizons that have an estimated hydraulic conductivity of less than the 0.52 inches per hour threshold. Please refer to the enclosed map and soil profile descriptions for more information. Although on -site saturated hydraulic conductivity measurements would be needed to definitively show that these layers are below the 0.52 inches per hour threshold, we feel strongly that. any testing will reveal that these soils will not meet the threshold, and that, depending on the depth of the proposed stormwater device, the excavation of some of the soil horizons and replacement with clean sand would be necessary and must be proposed to NCDWQ for them to approve on a case -'by -case basis. All of these *estimates obtained frorn one or more of the following: Forsyth County Soil Survey Table 1 S_ "Physical & Chernical Properties of the Soil - Permeability"; J acolet Soil Series and/or USDA-NRCS (United States Department of Agriculture - Natural Resource Conservation Service) official series description, and/or "NRCS Field Book for Describing & Sampling Soils" and since the rules require a minimum hydraulic conductivity of 0.52 inches per hour or more, the permeability estimates were converted to conductivity on the profile description tables. No actual site specific testing of hydraulic conductivity was performed, however this service can be provided by our firm if requested. . In conclusion, please remember that the rules require a 30 foot setback to all surface waters, a 50 foot from SA. waters, and 100 foot from any water supply wells from the stormwater infiltration device. Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA is pleased to be of service in this matter and we look forward to assisting in the successful completion of the project.

' _5LV1tiRoaktol A40 Robinhood Manor Apartment Hornes Watershed Narrative Robinhood Manor Apartment Homes is a 28.16 acre development in Forsyth County, NC. It is not located within a protected watershed and is not in the City limits of Winston-Salem. The requirement for a 401/404 makes water quality control a requirement for this site. The site has been broken up into 7 sub -basins, each with its own water quality device. Three of the BMPs are Infiltration Trenches and four are Bioretention Cells. Attached you will find calculations, supplements, and plans for Bioretention Cell 44. Bioretention Cell #4 Bioretention Cell #4 (BC4) is indicated on the watershed drainage area map as red drainage area. Located near the tennis courts for the complex the drainage area for BC4 is 0.57 acres with an impervious surface of 0.17 acres. The calculations can be found in the calculations packet. This is a grass bioretention cell with an underdrain. We are not using this cell for infiltration. Water enters the trench through a forebay that acts a pre- treatment. The forebays overflow into BC4 as distributed sheet flow. The cell is constructed of 2' of planting soil mix (specification and detail is on sheet C-I OG) covering 4" of washed sand. Under the washed sand is 24" of stone encased in filter fabric. The underdrain system is encased in the washed stone. Flows exceeding the design flow exit the basin through a weir that leads to a level spreader and a grass filter strip. The weir, grass filter strip, and level spreader have been sized to accommodate the 10 year storm. The contractor excavated several holes to look for seasonal high water table and bedrock and I verified that neither was found to the 784.50 elevation.
