"Additional site-specific stormwater management requirements may be added to this
Certification at DWQ's discretion on a case by case basis for projects that have or are
anticipated to have impervious cover of greater than 30 percent. Site-specific
stormwater management shall be designed to remove 85% TSS according to the latest
version of DWQ's Stormwater Best Management Practices manual at a minimum.
Additionally, in watersheds within one mile and draining to 303(d) listed waters, as well
as watersheds that are classified as nutrient sensitive waters (NSW), water supply waters

and ponds followed by forested filter strips (designed according to latest version of the
NCDENR stormwater Best Management Practices Manual) be constructed as part of the
stormwater management plan when asite-specific stormwater management plan is
required. Unless specified otherwise in the approval letter, the final, written stormwater
management plan shall be approved in writing by the Division of Water Quality's
Wetlands Unit before the impacts specified in this Certification occur. The facilities
must be designed to treat the runoff from the entire project, unless otherwise explicitly
approved by the Division of Water Quality. Also, the stormwater management plan (as
approved by the Wetlands Unit) shall be implemented before any permanent building or
other structure is occupied at the subject site. The structural stormwater practices as
approved by the Wetlands Unit as well as drainage patterns must be maintained in
perpetuity. No changes to the structural stormwater practices shall be made without
written authorization from the Division of Water Quality. Your site is in a HQW
watershed and therefore based on your submitted plans, you will need to provide the
location and details for the required stormwater management provision. This includes all
applicable worksheets and a signed and notarized Operations and Maintenance
Agreement.
Please contact the DWQ within three weeks of the date of this letter to verify that you have
received this letter and that you remain interested in continuing to pursue permitting of your
project and will be providing the DWQ the requested information at a later date. Please contact
me in writing and Kyle Barnes of the DWQ Washington Regional Office. If we do not hear
from you within three weeks, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue this project and
we will consider the project as withdrawn.
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. Cyndi Karoly or Mr. Ian
McMillan at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions regarding this matter or would like to set
up a meeting to discuss this matter.
