DWQ Project # 10-0326
Dear Mr. McMillan:
Thank for your staff's and Lauren Witherspoon's assistance with this project. We
are submitting the additional information requested from the (April 5, 2010 ?) written
correspondence received on May 5, 2010. We are requesting for NC Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) written approval under Section 404, Clean Water Act, 33 USC 1344 and the
Neuse River Buffer Rules. We have addressed your included written comments in the
following paragraphs.
1. The PCN only reflected a total stream impact of 85 linear feet but not
the type of impact, stream name, perennial or intermittent
information.
Our apologies on this discrepancy. It has been corrected and is reflected in the
revised attached PCN.
2. The PCN also shows the Buffer impact box check C 1 a; yet no buffer
impacts are noted in the PCN.
Our apologies on this discrepancy. It has been corrected and is reflected in the
revised attached PCN.

3. This project will require a permitting fee of $240 based on the
reading of Water Quality Certification 3821 (NW39).
Prior to submittal we consulted with Mrs. Witherspoon. Please refer to the attached
April 14, 2010 email. Disturbances will be limited to the existing rip-rapped riparian buffer
areas. Therefore, we request that the permitting fee be waived for this project.
If there are any questions or items that need to be clarified, please contact me
immediately at 749-8259 or email: Ly kellerenvironmental. com. We look forward to
receiving authorization to proceed with this project.
Sincerely,

provided inaccurate information as discussed below. Please provide five (5) copies of the following
and/or fee so that we may review and approve your project.
Additional Information Requested:
® PCN failed to fully complete stream impacts section on page 5 of 11. The PCN only reflected
a total stream impact of 85 linear feet but not the type of impact, stream name, perennial or
intermittent information.
® The PCN also shows the Buffer impact box checked C 1 a; yet no buffer impacts are noted in
the PCN.
® This project will require a permitting fee of $240 based on the reading of Water Quality
Certification 3821 (NW39).
Please submit this information or otherwise address this request within 30 calendar days of the date of this
letter. If we do not receive this requested information within 30 calendar days of the date of this letter, your

Hope you both are doing well. Attached is the proposed plans and cover letter with photos of the
stream area. We hoping to further stabilize the rip-rapped bank with some larger class 1 and correct
the biofabric and any other structures. We do not expect any in-stream work except for place new
rip-rap along the stream bank. HOA and owners are aware of limitation of 1 CY per running foot of
rip-rap below the plane of the ordinary HWM. A turbidity curtain will be placed downstream during
construction. Approximate stream bank disturbance is 130-feet.
Lastly, official name of this subdivision is Whittington Park.
Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you soon and submitting this bank stabilization project.

Thanks Lauren & congratulations to you and Josh. The engineer, HOA, & the 3 townhome owners
desire to have a gameplan before embarking on an expensive stream restoration plan and
subsequent implementation. The complexities of this project include:
Limited working area
Sewer & cable lines
Bank stabilization options (i.e., class 1 rip-rap, plantings, biofabric)
Tree removals
Stream size
have some stream structures in mind that include J-hooks, root wads.
Thanks again and look forward to meeting with you soon. I estimate that it should take 1-hour or
less. Jay

Thanks Martin. It is very perennial but surprisingly a UT to Crabtree
Creek/Lake. Maybe it's time to give it a name considering its size and
watershed.
Jamie, this stream restoration/stabilization area will likely need a NW. Do
you want to join in our site meeting? Please let me know and what your
schedule looks like.
I also forgot to mention earlier that's there's a parallel sewer line behind

the townhomes under the rip-rap.
Thanks everyone, Jay

Hey Jay - Lauren's not back yet...she'll be back in 3 days, 0 hours and 7
minutes
This stream looks pretty perennial and pretty subject from the pics. Have
you talked to the Corps about a NW?

Hello Lauren & Martin, we need a site meeting with one of you at a site in
Cary near NW Maynard & Harrison. Please let me know when we could schedule
it. I've attached 2 photos from yesterday's site meeting and Wake GIS
4

stream aerial. The 3 townhomes have suffered some streambank erosion from
this winter's storms and the HOA, owners, etc. need to restore the stream
bank. Thanks, Jay
