All,

I was looking over the additional information you provided on May 11, 2021. Everything looks good except for a few
small issues:

Please correct the following:
- Prior Comment 2 (Original Comment 16a) – Please provide an electronic copy of the O&M Agreement Form
(Signed 3/30/21) and the Application, both from the second (April 2021) submission. The electronic copies of
these items were not provided in the latest resubmission and are required prior to the project being approved. If
you do not have an electronic version of these files to upload, please let me know.
- Supplement-EZ Form:
o Drainage Areas Page, Entire Site Column:
 Line 15 – Please include this value. This value represents the entire amount of BUA that will
remain on-site from existing conditions to proposed conditions.
 Line 16 – Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t believe that any of the existing BUA associated
with this site is covered under a different/prior permit. If there is no prior permit then this value
would be zero or N/a.
 General – The sum of the New BUA (Items in Line 12) and the Existing BUA that will Remain (Line
15) should equal the Total BUA in the Project (Line 8).
o Wet Pond Page:
 Line 28 – The average depth of the main pool appears to be incorrectly calculated in the SIA
(and therefore incorrectly shown in the Supplement-EZ Form). The “Abottom shelf” value in the
calculations should be the cross-sectional area of the main pool at the bottom elevation of the
vegetated shelf. The bottom of the vegetated shelf is shown at elevation 250.5 in the plans and
calculations and the cross-sectional area of the main pool at this elevation is 3,298 sf. This
should result in an average depth closer to 4’ (This change shouldn’t necessitate the wet pond
design being changed, it appears to just be a calculation/reporting change).

Please provide the following:
- 1x hard copy & 1x electronic copy of the revised Supplement-EZ Form
- 1x hard copy & 1x electronic copy of the revised calculations
th
- 1x electronic copy of the O&M Agreement provided on April 5
th
- 1x electronic copy of the Application provided on April 5

Hard copies should be mailed to me at the following address:

Electronic copies should be uploaded at the following location:

https://edocs.deq.nc.gov/Forms/SW-Supplemental-Upload (NOTE: This is a new link)

Since these are really minor things, once I get the hard copies, anything else that may have changed from addressing
these issues, and the documents are uploaded to Laserfiche (Provided everything is still in order), we can issue the
permit without doing another formal 30-45 day review.

Let me know if you have any questions.
