4. Per the requirements of the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rule, you must
show that this site meets diffuse flow requirements with a level spreader or
other BMP per Chapter 8 of the BMP Manual.
Diffuse flow from this site is anticipated without level spreaders or BMP device. I
spoke with Ms. Lyn Hardison of the Washington regional office prior to submitting
the original package. There are no streams on the property and it is surrounded by
large wetland areas. No erosive velocities are anticipated from the rail expansion
project.
If you should have questions or require additional clarification please feel free to contact
me at 749-8259 (cell) or email: jay@kellerenvironmental.com.
Sincerely,
Keller Environmental, LLC
