Mr. Patterson:
Thank you for your review of Stormwater Permit modification associated with the above referenced
project. Please find the following responses to comments dated October 17, 2011:
1. The revised calculations submitted need to be sealed, signed, and dated.
Response: The revised calculations included with this re -submittal have been signed, sealed,
and dated.
2. The supplemental forms need to be revised showing the new information based on the increase
in drainage area (DA) and impervious area.
Response: Revised supplement forms have been provided.
3. Please submit a revised DA map. The additional BUA appears to be in DA C which bypasses the
BMPs.
Response: The additional BUA is in DA C. We were not able to reasonably capture the runoff
from the new impervious area in the BMP. Therefore, the BMP has been designed to
compensate for the additional BUA that is not captured. The additional BUA has been added
to drainage area B calculations. Revised drainage area maps have been provided with this re -
submittal.
4. The calculations show that the minimum treatment volume will stage 562.5', but that is above
the 8" set at 562.30'. The entire treatment volume must drain down through the smaller water
quality orifice in 2-5 days. Please revise.

Response: We concur, the calculations have been revised and the orifice in the outlet structure
has been raised to the 562.50' elevation to provide the required water quality volume
treatment.
5. The new stage -storage table shows that the dry ponds have increased in volume from the
previously approved table. However, the narrative and plans submitted with the modification
request does not show an increase in size. Please explain.
Response: We submitted the wrong spreadsheet with the first submittal. Please see the
calculations attached to this re -submittal. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Should you have any questions or need any additional information, please feel free to contact me via
phone [phone] or e-mail ([e-mail]).

increase in drainage area (DA) and impervious area.
3. Please submit a revised DA map. The additional BUA appears to be in DA C which
bypasses the BMPs.
4. The calculations show that the minimum treatment volume will stage to 562.50', but that
is above the 8" orifice set at 562.30'. The entire treatment volume must drain down
through the smaller water quality orifice in 2-5 days. Please revise.
5. The new stage -storage table shows that the dry ponds have increased in volume from the
previously approved table. However, the narrative and plans submitted with the
modification request does not show an increase in size. Please explain.

Ramseur 1 ] 5/24 kV Substation
Stormwater Management Permit (SW4101001)
Modification to Plan
Dear Mr. Patterson:
As shown in the attached drawing sheets, Progress Energy Carolinas (PEC) is proposing
to slightly increase the impervious surface originally permitted by 0.04 acres inside the
fence in the Ramseur substation. This additional impervious will be used to include a
permanent gravel access on the back of the substation. To do this the current 17 foot
driveway will be extended an additional 20 feet (0.01 ac). Also, at the Town of
Ramseur's request we would like to include the temporary construction entrance as
permanent (0.03 ac).
PEC does not propose to change any drainage patterns or stormwater control devices, as
the latter are sized sufficiently to handle any increased stormwater.
Due to our revised construction plan we request approval of our stormwater plan with
modifications.
In support of that request, we are enclosing the following:
1. Plan Review Fee Check for $505.00
2. Plan Drawings
3. Stormwater Management Application Form

Subject: Ramseur 115kV Substation (Stormwater Project No. SW4101001)
Mr. Robert Patterson,
Last week I submitted a Stormwater modification to the previously permitted Ramseur 115 kV Substation (Stormwater
Project No. SW4101001) to show the additional BUA created by the addition of a second construction entrance. What I
failed to realize is that the second construction entrance, located in the bottom right hand corner of the attached design
sheet, is temporary. The gravel will be removed and will be seeded and fertilized in order to return the area to grass
once construction has been completed.
On January 19'` my lead, Buzz Bryson, sent a letter to Mike Randall with DWQ inquiring as to whether we would need to
submit a modification package to our permit to show the addition of the construction entrance. He received a reply on
February 8th, e-mail attached, stating that if the gravel entrance was to remain permanent then we would need to
submit a formal modification package. Due to some miscommunication we had believed that the entrance was to
remain permanent which is why I submitted the modification package. As previously stated we now know that the
entrance is not permanent and are therefore requesting to not submit for a modification. Also, the increased disturbed
area created by the temporary construction entrance was approved by Shannon Leonard of the Division of Land Quality
by e-mail on January 10tn
I apologize for the confusion and hope we can consider the issue resolved. Please contact me with any questions you or
your staff may have. Thank you very much.

Matt,
Following up on my voice message this morning, attached is a sketch showing the added proposed disturbed area.
Mostly, the change was to relocate fencing to allow more direct access to the site from the street. Gravel would be put
down on a portion of the disturbed area (effectively, in part, creating a construction entrance).
Do we need to send a revised plan, or just a better explanation along with this sketch? There will be no change in
control measures. As I indicated in message, main issue was the slight increase in impervious surface, and Mike Randall
in DWQ central office just asked for a letter and sketch, saying he'd OK it as a minor mod.
Thanks for your guidance! Hope all is well.

This reply is in response to your January 19, 2011 letter to DWQ describing some proposed changes to the facility
permitted under state stormwater permit SW4101001. The letter states that several fences are to be relocated as well
as the addition of 4,800 SF of gravel impervious area. The addition of new built -upon area constitutes a modification
requiring director approval according to Section II, 9.a of the permit text. The fence relocation is considered minor and
it alone would not require a formal modification request (which includes a new application and $505 fee). If you plan to
proceed with the gravel area and it is to remain permanent, we will require you to submit for permit modification.
Please let me know if you have any questions about the process.

Subject: Minor Change to Progress Energy's Ramseur Substation Expansion
Dear Mr. Randall:
As shown in the attached drawing, Progress Energy Carolinas (PEC) is proposing to slightly
increase the impervious surface originally permitted (approximately 30,000 square feet) at the
Ramseur substation. This proposed increase involves relocating several fences, and adding
gravel to an approximately 4,800 square foot area to facilitate entrance to the construction area.
PEC does not propose to change any drainage patterns or stormwater control devices, as the
latter are sized sufficiently to handle any increased Stormwater.
We have contacted Mr. Matt Gantt, Regional Engineer with the Land Quality Section in the
Winston-Salem Regional Office. Mr. Gantt indicated that the attached e-mail was sufficient for
purposes of remaining in compliance with the previously -approved erosion control plan.
From our earlier telephone conversation, we understand this change can be considered a minor
modification, and that the attached drawing is sufficient documentation for that.
Please don't hesitate to contact me (office, 919-546-6637; cell, 919-812-1120; or email at
burz.bryson___ nmail.com) if you have any questions or if additional information is needed.
Thank you very much for your consideration.
Very truly yours,

Dear Ms. Russell:

Secretary
Subject: Request for Additional Information
Stormwater Project No. SW4101001
Progress Energy Ramseur 115/24 kV Substation
Randolph County
The Division of Water Quality received a Stormwater Management Permit Application for the subject project on
October 27, 2010. A preliminary review of that information has determined that the application is not complete.
The following information is needed to continue the stormwater review:
1. Latitude/longitude information on the application form is incorrect. Please revise as necessary.
The stormwater summary on the application is not consistent with the stormwater narrative - revise
for consistency.
In order to meet the 851/1a TSS removal requirements using dry detention basins and a level spreader
- vegetated filter strip (LS•VFS), two basins must be utilized in series with the LS-VFS provided at the
discharge point of the second basin. Specifically, all runoff from impervious areas must be routed
through the first basin which must then discharge to the second basin. As proposed, some runoff
appears to short-circuit the first basin. Additionally, the water quality volume (WQV) for this project
is approximately 1,850 CF. Thus, each dry detention basin must treat a minimum of 1,850 CF. The
second basin must discharge the WQV at a rate between 2-5 days. Please revise the design as
necessary.
4. please specify permanent vegetation type for the dry detention basins.
Per Table 8-1 of the BMP Manual, the LS-VFS must be designed to accommodate runoff from the 10-
yr storm up to 10 CFS. The minimum width of the LS must be 10 ft per CFS and 30 ft for the VFS.
Revise as appropriate.
6. Two dry detention supplement forms and O&M agreements are required _ one for each dry
detention basin.
The requested information should be received by this Office prior to December 9, 2010, or the application will be
returned as incomplete. The return of a project will necessitate resubmittal of all required items, including the
application fee.
If you need additional time to submit the information, please send your request including date by which you
expect to submit the required information to my attention. The Division is allowed 90 days from the receipt of a
completed application to issue a permit.
