Dear Mr. Battle:
On April 13, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated March

Zone 1 Neuse River basin protected riparian buffers and 180 square feet of Zone 2 Neuse River
basin protected riparian buffers to construct a proposed solid waste transfer facility. 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. Please clearly indicate all Zone 1 and Zone 2 buffers, and impacts to these, on the site plan.
2. Please provide cross section details showing the provisions for aquatic life passage. A
bypass culvert type system is recommended.
3. Diffuse Flow
In the Neuse River Basin, you must show that your site is providing diffuse flow as
required by [15A NCAC 02B .0233(5)]. Please show your diffuse flow measures on your
plan sheet, and provide all applicable worksheets, and a signed and notarized operations
and maintenance agreement.
