Subject: WoodCreek - Revised DWQ 401 Certification Request
Ian, Annette and Lauren,
Thanks for meeting with us yesterday to discuss WoodCreek Environmental permitting. After reviewing our renewal
request and the project status it was determined that the best way to handle the situation was for us to eliminate the
two impacts that had not been started. These are Impact 8 (sewer crossing in Tract F future phases) and Impact 14
(future road crossing in Tract J). We will eliminate Impact 8 by boring the sewer line and Impact 14 may be requested in
the future only if needed. This leaves Impact 4 (the B/C connector road crossing where the pipe was installed prior to
expiration of the environmental permits) as the only item needing to be permitted. Since the impacts associated with
this crossing have been partially completed, we will request the remaining impacts via our revised Impact map & PCN.
The impact map will show the existing impacts and what is left. We will also amend the total quantities of impacts
reflecting the deletion of Impacts 8 & 14. We understand that you will be able to issue the permit with the removal of
the other impacts. We are working on those revisions and will submit to DWQ early next week.
We also discussed the level spreaders within the project and understand that we can use the revised level spreader
standards with the bypass channels since they are an allowable use. We will need to submit the designs to Annette for
review and concurrence since there may be some buffer impacts. Also, depending on the space available, we could
move the level spreader 30' from the buffer and grade a filter strip to the buffer as shown in the BMP manual. It will be
our intent to complete future level spreaders in one of these manners. We may also look at retrofitting existing level
spreaders on a case by case basis and will run everything through Annette and the Town of Holly Springs.
Lastly, we discussed the Town of Holly Spring's request for confirmation from DWQ that the constructed wetland serving
the neighborhood recreation site was also acceptable for Tract D-2. DWQ provided the attached SWM approval letter
for this BMP and we were told that as long as the impervious % did not increase, that DWQ deemed it acceptable. Our
report to the Town kept the impervious surface are the same as in the previous information.
Please respond to this e-mail with either your concurrence with this information or clarifications if needed. Also advise if
you have any questions or require additional information.
Thanks again for meeting with us.
Jim
