Additional Information
Dear Mr. MacMillan,
1 am providing this letter in response to our telephone conversation of Jame 27, 2007 in
which you identified two (2) items for which you require additional information. The
comments below provide information in response to your request.
1. A request was made to both the NC Division of Water Quality and NC Forest
Resources for a determination of intermittent/perenniai streams on the property in
February 2007. I had assumed that the required information had been provided
directly to you and apologize for not following up on this matter more
aggressively. I have called Kevin Barnett with the NC Division of Water Quality
Asheville office and left him a message requesting a determination of intermittent
and/or perennial streams on the property. I will pursue this and provide you the
determination as soon as Kevin can make an inspection of the site and provide his
deternnination regarding.
2. Detailed response to Section XIV-Cumulative Impacts: The proposed project is
not anticipated result in additional development activity that could impact nearby
downstream water quality. The site is located within a developed urban area and
is the only site within the area that can be developed. All other properties are
developed or aze city-owned open spaces that cannot be developed. The project
site is located in a neighborhood whose initial development began in the 192f9s,
with all properties currently developed. Located between downtown Asheville
and the Asheville mall, there is little or no opportunity fox new development in
the site vicinity. In addition, a stormwater management plan has been submitted
to and approved by the City of Asheville. This plan addresses the 25 year storm
and exceeds the standards set forth in the Cites stoxmwater management
ordinance.
