NCDEQ STORMWATER COMMENT RESPONSES
RE: Project Name: Franklin Co. E911
Project ID: SW5210202
County: Franklin
Town: Louisburg
Address: 285 T Kemp Road
Submitted By: Timmons Group

Please see comments in response to the Checklist of Additional Items below provided by Jim
Farkas, Environmental Engineer, Stormwater Program.
CHECKLIST OF ADDITIONAL ITEMS
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR), received a Stormwater
Management Permit Application for the subject project on April 5, 2021. A review of that
information has determined that the application is not complete. The following information is
needed to continue the stormwater review:
1. Prior Comment 8 ase dimension the project boundary with bearings and
Please show the entire extents of the project boundary (You may wish to add this information to
plan sheet C4.4).
The project boundary has been labeled with bearing and distances on Sheet C4.4.
2. Prior Comment 16a

electronic files for this submission. Please ensure that the files from the April 5 the submission
and the files for the next submission get uploaded. Occasionally, the file upload portal will stall
(and not register the upload) if the files are very large.
The files have been uploaded online.
3. There appears to be a discrepancy between the BUA information shown in the
Application/Supplement-EZ Form and as shown in the SIA calculations. In the
Application/Supplement-EZ Form, the drainage area to the wet pond is shown as 1.49 acres
(64,812 sf) and the amount of BUA in the drainage area is shown as 0.60 acres (25,934 sf). The
SIA calculations show the drainage area to the wet pond as 1.48 acres and the amount of BUA
in the drainage area as 0.56 acres. Make sure that you are not double counting Existing BUA.
The Application/Supplement EZ Form was originally correct, the SIA calculations have
bee updated to 1.49 acres with 0.60 acres of impervious.

4. The forebay volume appears to be incorrectly calculated in the SIA calculations. The
forebay
(the stage-storage table shows an incremental volume of 106 cf from elevation
The spreadsheet has been updated to not include the incremental volume between 245-
246.The pond became 1 foot deeper to reach a sufficient average depth.
5. The provided stage-storage table for the main pool and forebay do not show the cross-
sectional was
also mentioned in Prior Comment 12. Since the berm separating the forebay from the main pool
is below the permanent pool elevation an imaginary vertical line that runs along this berm
should be used to divide the main pool from the forebay (See image below).
The main pool and forebay volumes have been calculated up to the permanent pool
elevation.
6. Please correct the following issues with the Supplement-EZ Form:
a. Drainage Areas Page:
i. Please complete the Entire Site Column. This column is an accounting of all of the BUA for the
e site
not required for this column.
The column has been updated.
b. Wet Pond Page:
i. Lines 2, 26-29, 32, & 35 may need to be changed, depending on earlier comments. Updated
ii. Line 34 The cleanout depth of the forebay is the distance from the permanent pool elevation
e
Updated
iii. Lines 43 & 44 The depth of the forebay is the distance from the permanent pool elevation
designed to have a sump near the inlet pipe (See Figure 5 of Part C-3 of the Stormwater Design
Manual) in these cases, the two different depths would be recorded, but if the bottom of the
forebay is at a uniform elevation, then these two Lines would be the same. Updated
iv. Line 48 Per the provided detail on plan sheet C4.2, the pond draws down from below the
permanent pool surface elevation. Updated
