Specifically, you have requested that Condition No. 7 of Your 401 Water Quality Certification only apply to Phase 4 of your project. The DWQ will not approve this request for the following reasons: 1. A number of the phases have proposed impervious surface percentages that exceed 28 percent: 6 out of 12. The DWQ will need to do a careful review when impervious surface percentages are this close to 30 percent. 2. The DWQ staff also needs to have the opportunity to insure that diffuse flow provisions are met appropriately on each one of the phases. This letter only addresses the non-approval of a request to revise Condition No. 7 of Your 401 Water Quality Certification 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 or would like to set up a meeting to discuss this matter.
