REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Page:
On June 6, 2011, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your After-the-Fact application dated
June 2, 2011, with to impact or fill 287 linear feet of stream and 17,220 square feet of Zone 1 Jordan Lake
protected riparian buffers and 11,480 square feet of Zone 2 Jordan Lake basin protected riparian buffers
to reportedly provide buildable area for construction of an addition to the existing home on the property.
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 place this project on hold as incomplete
until we receive this additional information. If we do not receive the requested information, your project
will be formally returned as incomplete. Please provide the following information so that we may
continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Please locate all isolated or non-isolated wetlands, streams, and other waters of the State as
overlays on the site plan.
2. Please locate all of the protected riparian buffers as overlays on the site plan, clearly showing
Zone 1 and Zone 2.
3. Please enumerate all riparian buffer impacts on the site plan and clearly label impacts (Buffer
Impact 1, etc.).
4. Please re-submit your site plans on full plan sheets at a scale of no smaller than I"=50' with
topographic contours shown.
5. Please provide documentation identifying the month and year the stream was piped.

6. Please provide documentation on how the stream impact length was quantified.
287 linear feet of compensatory stream mitigation is required for this project. Please provide a
compensatory mitigation plan. The plan must conform to the requirements of 15A NCAC 2H
.0500 and must be appropriate to the type of impacts proposed. If you choose not to mitigate for
the impacts associated with piping the stream, you must restore to stream to its original location,
including pattern, bed, and profile. Should this be the case, please submit your complete and
comprehensive restoration plan.
8. If the pipe remains in place, this project may require a Major Variance from the Jordan Lake
Buffer Rules to be granted by the Environmental Management Commission.
9. Please note, if this project is subject to the Jordan Lake Riparian Buffer Rule, all stormwater
drainage from this site must be discharged through a correctly designed level spreader or treated
by a stormwater BMP that removes a minimum of 30 percent of total nitrogen and total
phosphorus prior to discharge through the riparian buffer. Level spreader design requirements are
set forth in Chapter 8 of the North Carolina Stormwater BMP Manual, available at:
http://portal.ncdenr.org/web/wq/ws/su/bmp-manual.
Please submit this information 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 project will be returned and
you will need to reapply with a new application and a new fee.
This letter only addresses the application review and does not authorize any impacts to wetlands, waters or
protected buffers. Please be aware that any impacts requested within your application are not authorized (at
this time) by the DWQ. Please call Ms. Karen Higgins or Mr. Ian McMillan at 919-807-6301 if you have
any questions regarding or would like to set up a meeting to discuss this matter.
