A preliminary review of that information has determined that the application is not complete. The following information is needed to continue the stormwater review: Please either delineate all wetlands on site, disturbed or undisturbed, or note on the plans that none exist. 2. Please remove the 19 contour from the infiltration basin, since this will result in the seasonal high water table being within 2' of -the bottom. 3. The Division does not normally allow the volume stored in piping and basins to be included in the provided volume. Using the Rv method to calculate the required volume should reduce the volume below that which is provided in the basin alone. Please see comment #4. 4. Please demonstrate that the site is greater than'/2 mile from SA class waters and unnamed tributaries of SA waters, in order to use a 1" design storm. If you need assistance in determining whether the receiving stream is considered SA or not, please contact Noelle Lutheran to schedule a stream call. 5. The overflow elevation is indicated as 23, but the top of grate of all but one of the catch basins is 23. How does the bypass work? 6. The bypass structure detail on the plans did not print all of the lines. There are a few dimension lines and labels, but no structure or piping is shown. 7. Please show the existing contours and drainage features of the site. This is especially important in regard to demonstrating that offsite drainage does not enter the proposed basin. 8.

The soils of the site consist of moderately wooded, sandy topsoil and grades ranging from 0.2% to 1.0%. Approximately 1.4 acres will be graded to allow construction of a new office building with paved parking and paved access. The runoff from the site is estimated using the rational method 10-year design storm and rainfall data for the area. Construction is scheduled to begin as soon as all permits and approvals are obtained. EROSION CONTROL MEASURES: The attached plans and specifications give the requirements for erosion control measures. Silt fencing will be provided where needed. The detention pond will be used as a silt basin during construction and restored to its design contours prior to completion. A gravel construction entrance will be constructed at the entrance. Maintenance will be provided by the grading contractor and developer. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT MEASURES: The project site is located in New Hanover County. Land disturbing on the site will exceed one acre, which requires the site to comply with the State Regulations. The stormwater runoff from the development will be directed to the stormwater infiltration area. CONSTRUCTION SEQUENCE: The Contractor will. install the gravel construction entrance and silt fence prior to beginning any clearing and grading. operations. Additional silt fence will be installed when and if conditions warrant during construction. The detention pond/silt basin will be constructed immediately after that portion of the site is cleared, and outlet structure with protection will be installed. Disturbed areas will be landscaped or seeded upon completion. EROSION CONTROL NOTES AND MAINTENANCE PLAN 1. Install erosion control measures before beginning construction or as soon thereafter as possible. All erosion and sediment control practices will be checked for stability and operation following every runoff -producing rainfall but in no case less than once every week. Any needed repairs will be made immediately to maintain all practices as designed. 2. 'Maintain the gravel construction entrances in a condition to prevent mud or sediment from leaving the construction site. The contractor shall inspect the construction entrances on a daily basis. This will require periodic top dressing with additional No. 4 stone. Any objectionable materials spilled, washed, or tracked onto public roadways shall be removed immediately. 3. Install erosion control measures around the drop inlets as shown on the plans to trap silt during construction. Inspect the erosion control around the inlets after each rain and make repairs immediately. Remove sediment when it becomes 0.50 deep to provide adequate storage volume for subsequent rains. When the contributing drainage area has been adequately stabilized, remove all materials and any unstable soil and either salvage or dispose of it properly. Bring the disturbed area to proper grade and appropriately stabilize all bare areas around the drop inlets. 4. Sediment will be removed from behind the silt fence when it becomes 0.5 feet deep at the fence. The sediment fence will be repaired as necessary to maintain a barrier. Silt fence stakes shall be spaced 6 feet apart unless a wire backing is used with 8 foot stake spacing. 5. Inspect temporary sediment traps 1 check dams after each period of significant rainfall. Remove sediment and restore the trap to its original dimensions when the sediment has accumulated to one-half the design depth of the trap. Place the sediment that is removed in the designated disposal area and replace the contaminated part of the gravel facing. Check the structure for damage from erosion or piping. Periodically check the depth of the spillway to ensure it is a minimum of 1.5 ft below the low point of the embankment. Immediately fill any settlement of the embankment to slightly above design grade. Any riprap displaced from the spillway must be replaced immediately. After all sediment - producing areas have been permanently stabilized, remove the structure and all unstable sediment. Smooth the area to blend with the adjoining areas and stabilize properly. 6. No cut or fill slopes shall exceed a side slope of 1 vertical to 3 horizontal unless otherwise specified on the plan. All slopes shall be seeded and stabilized within 15 days. 7. The stormwater ponds will act as sediment basins and will be cleaned out when the level of sediment reaches 2.0 ft below the top of the riser. Gravel will be cleaned or replaced when the sediment pool no longer drains properly. 8. All disturbed areas shall be seeded within 15 days of disturbance. All seeded areas will be fertilized, reseeded as necessary and mulched according to specifications in the vegetative plan to maintain a vigorous, dense vegetative cover. 9. More stringent measures shall be used to halt erosion if those shown on this plan are not effective. 10. All erosion shall be controlled including side slopes before the project is completed. 11. Remove temporary - measures upon completion of project. All permanent measures will be well established before project closeout. SECTION 02920 SOIL EROSION AND SEDIMENTATION CONTROL 1. GENERAL 1.1 Contractor shall take every reasonable precaution throughout construction to prevent the erosion of soil and the sedimentation of streams, lakes, reservoirs, other water impoundments, ground surfaces, or other property as required by State and Local regulations. 1.2 The Contractor shall install all required silt fences, and construction entrances at the initiation of work, and have these measures reviewed and approved by the local permit authority prior to clearing and grading operations. 1.3 The Contractor shall, within 15 days of suspension or completion of land disturbing activities, provide permanent protective covering for disturbed areas. Temporary and permanent erosion control measures shall be coordinated to assure economical, effective, and continuous erosion and siltation control throughout the construction and post -construction period. Use the specified seed for both temporary and permanent seeding. 2. PRODUCTS 2.1 Asphalt for anchoring mulch shall be Type SS-1 Emulsion. 2.2 Fertilizer shall be 10-10-10 grade or equivalent. 2.3 Lime shall be dolomitic agricultural ground limestone containing not less than 10 percent magnesium oxide. 2.4 Mulch shall be small grain straw, hay, wood chips, asphalt emulsion, jute or other suitable material free of undesirable weed seed. 2.5 Phosphate shall be 20 percent superphosphate or equivalent. 2.6 Seed shall be 20% carpet grass, 24% Bermuda, 20% turf Fescue, 10% Creeping Red Fescue, and 24% Annual Rye grain. Bermuda seed shall be hulled for warm weather planting and unhulled for cool weather planting. Purity of seed shall be a minimum of 98 percent and germination shall be a minimum of 85 percent. 2.7 Silt fence shall consist of NCDOT Class A fabric supported by wood or metal posts spaced not more than 6 feet on center. The bottom of the fabric shall be buried a minimum of 6 inches. 2.8 Gravel for check dams shall be #57 washed stone. 2.9 Aggregate for construction entrance shall be #4 washed stone. 2.10 Stone rip rap for check dams and erosion control shall be NCDOT Class A or B as shown. 3. EXECUTION 3.1 General: Take every practicable measure during construction or suspension to work to minimize erosion and siltation. Measures should include good construction practices, temporary physical barriers to sediment travel, settling basins for new ditches, and establishment of vegetative cover. 3.2 Construction Practices 3.2.1 Avoid dumping soil or sediment into any wetland or watercourse. 3.2.2 Maintain an undisturbed vegetative buffer where possible between a natural watercourse and trenching and grading operations. 3.2.3 Avoid equipment crossings of streams, creeks, and ditches where practicable. 3.2.4 Grade all cut, fill and ditch slopes to minimum slope of 3:1, unless otherwise shown or directed. 3.3 Temporary Physical Barriers are required where sedimentation on off site property or excessive erosion is a problem. 3.3.1 Mulch shall be used for temporary stabilization of areas subject to excessive erosion and for protection of seedbeds after planting where required. 1. Apply grain straw and hay at a rate of 75 to 100 pounds per 1000 square feet and wood. chips at a rate of 500 pounds per 1000 square feet. Jute and mesh should be installed as per manufacturer's instructions. 2. Asphalt emulsion for slope stabilization should be applied at a rate of 1,000 gallons per acre. Asphalt emulsion used for anchoring straw should be applied at a rate of 150 gallons per ton of straw. 3.3.2 Silt Fences shall be used at the base of slopes to restrict movement of sediment from the site. Clean silt fence of accumulated sediment after each rainfall event or when it exceeds a depth of 0.5 feet above natural grade. 3.3.3 Stone Check Dams, placed at the discharges of creeks, ditches, and swales, shall consist of Class A rip rap at minimum two feet high and three feet thick across the watercourse, with a one foot thick layer of gravel on upstream side. Remove sediment if accumulated to a depth of 1.0 feet at upstream face. 3.4 Vegetative Cover: Establish and maintain permanent vegetative cover on all unpaved areas disturbed by the work. 3.4.1 Preparation of Seedbed: Areas to be seeded shall be scarified to a depth of 4 inches and until a firm, well pulverized, uniform seedbed is prepared. Lime, phosphorous and fertilizer shall be applied during the scarification process in accordance with the following rates: Lime: 45 pounds per 1000 square feet Phosphorous: 20 pounds per 1000 square feet Fertilizer: 17 pounds per 1000 square feet 3.4.2 Seeding: Disturbed areas shall be seeded with 2 to 3 pounds per 1000 square feet of the specified seed mixture. Seed shall be worked into the bed to a depth of 114 inch. Regrade and seed eroded areas immediately 3.4.3 Mulch all areas immediately after seeding. Mulch shall be applied and anchored as specified hereinbefore. Reapply as necessary to retain cover until grass is established. 3.5 Construction Entrance: Provide an aggregate drive, 20 feet wide by 50 feet long by 6 inches thick at each entrance to the site used by construction vehicles, until such time as the permanent roadway is constructed. Remove soil if accumulated to a depth greater than 0.5 inches. 3.6 Maintenance: The Owner and Contractor shall be responsible for maintaining all temporary and permanent erosion control measures. Temporary structures shall be maintained until such time as vegetation is firmly established in the area protected by the structure. Permanent streambank protection and grassed areas shall be maintained until completion of the project. Areas that fail to show a suitable stand of grass or which are damaged by erosion shall be immediately repaired. END OF SECTION
