REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Lynch:
On March 2, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated March
2, 2007, to impact 0.08 acres of 404/wetland, 293 linear feet of perennial stream and 8,242
square feet of Zone 1 Neuse River basin protected riparian buffer and 2,504 square feet of Zone
2 Neuse River basin protected riparian buffer to construct the proposed residential subdivision.
The DWQ has determined that your application was incomplete and/or provided inaccurate
information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional information in order to
process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams on the subject property.
Therefore, unless we receive five copies of the additional information requested below, we will
have to move toward denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506 and will
place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information. Please
provide the following information so that we may continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Pursuant to the requirements in Water Quality General Certification 3631 for Nutrient
Sensitive Waters, the DWQ shall require that extended detention wetlands, bioretention
areas or ponds followed by forested filter strips (designed according to the latest version
of the NC DENR Stormwater Best Management Practices Manual) be constructed as part
of the Stormwater management plan. In order to receive approval for the NC 42 East
project, all of the drainage from the proposed development must be treated by one of the
above BMPs.
2. In the resubmittal for this project, please include complete calculations and plans for all
aspects of each of the proposed Stormwater management devices. In addition, please
include an appropriate DWQ worksheet for each of the proposed BMPs. The DWQ

your request to purchase stream mitigation credit to mitigate for the proposed stream
impacts listed in your PCN application per section VIII, No. 4.

received this letter and to provide us with a date that we may expect to receive this requested
information: If we do not receive this requested information within one week of the date you
indicate it will be forthcoming, your project, will be withdrawn and you will need to reapply with
