Subject Property: Lot 1 Silver Lake Phase 1, Cary, NC

REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Huff:
On March 21, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) 401 Oversight/Express Permitting Unit
received your Minor Variance application dated March 21, 2007 with additional information received on
April 13, 2007, regarding your request for a Minor Variance from the Neuse Buffer Rules (15A NCAC
2B .0233) for the subject property. The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is required to prepare a
"preliminary finding" /"finding of fact" as to whether the variance request meets the requirements of 15A
NCAC 02B .0233(9)(a). The DWQ may attach conditions to a variance approval that support the
purpose, spirit and intent of the riparian buffer protection program. Conditions usually include
stormwater management and buffer mitigation.
Additional information will be required before we can proceed with the review of your variance request.
Therefore, unless additional information is provided as described below, we will have to move toward
denial of your request per 15A NCAC 2B .0233 and will place this project on hold as incomplete until we
receive this additional information.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Please provide an acceptance letter from a mitigation bank stating they have the available credits
for the buffer mitigation required for your project.
Please respond in writing within three weeks of the date of this letter by sending a copy of this
information to me and to Lauren Cobb of the DWQ Raleigh Regional Office. If we do not hear from you
in writing within three weeks, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue your variance request
