REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Stephens:
On May 11, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated May 9, 2007, to
fill or otherwise impact 0.27 acres of 404/wetland, and 0.00 square feet of Zone 1 Neuse River basin
protected riparian buffers and 0.00 square feet of Zone 2 Neuse River basin protected riparian buffers to
construct a residential subdivision. The DWQ has determined that your application was incomplete
and/or provided inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional
information in order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams on the
subject property. Therefore, unless we receive five copies of the additional information requested below,
we will have to move toward denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506 and will
place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information. Please provide the
following information so that we may continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Please show all wetland impacts including fill slopes on the site plan. A site plan should be
provided that shows the wetland area to be impacted by the multiuse facilities and playgrounds.
2. You have requested non-riparian mitigation, but the EEP has accepted riparian mitigation. Please
clarify this discrepancy.
3. Please show the drainage area of the proposed extended detention wetland. All stormwater
draining from the site must be routed to the extended detention wetland (or other BMP
appropriate for Nutrient Sensitive Waters per General Certification 3631).
4. Please provide a completed Extended Detention Wetland Worksheet as well as all information
listed under the Required Items. (The worksheet is available at the DWQ 401 Unit web site at:
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/wetlndwk.pdf). As you complete the worksheet, please
reference the 1999 DWQ Stormwater BMP Manual and verify that the proposed design for this
BMP is in compliance with the manual.
