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.
