Re: Reply to the Division of Water Quality's 01/16/07 request for additional information
Willow Creek Subdivision
Wake County, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Karoly and Mr. McMillan:
This letter is in response to your letter dated January 16, 2007, which requested additional
information for the proposed Willow Creek Subdivision. The following restates your
questions/comments and is then followed by our response.
Additional Information Requested
1. Please indicate all buffer impacts on the site plan.
Please find the attached revised site plan.
2. Please show Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the buffer as an overlay on your site
plan.
Please find the attached revised site plan. -

3. Please locate any planned sewer lines on the site plan.
The proposed Willow Creek subdivision application did not request approval for a
USACE Nationwide Permit 12 or the associated NC DWQ General Certification #3374,
because there are no utilities proposed within the buffers or jurisdictional areas. We have
however, provided a revised site plan that shows the proposed sewer lines with associated
sewer easements. It should be noted that there are no additional impacts to any
jurisdictional or riparian areas associated with the utility installation.
4. Please provide an inventory of proposed project imperviousness area
based on the estimated built-out conditions. Your calculations do not
appear to include driveways. Please revise your calculations and
percent imperviousness.
Per section XI (Stormwater) of the Pre-construction Notification application, if the
anticipated impervious surface exceeds 20%, calculations must be provided that
demonstrate total impervious. We supplied you with ari impervious calculation break
down as a courtesy only. The anticipated post-construction impervious surface is not
anticipated to exceed 20% and therefore, a detailed calculation inventory is not required.
Please call if you have any questions or require further explanation.
Sincerely,
Nicole J. Thomson
Regulatory Specialist
