REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Champion:
On March 10, 2006 the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your Minor Variance application to impact
the Neuse River riparian buffer to construct a proposed dwelling. 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 riparian buffer on the subject
property. Therefore, unless we receive the additional information requested below, we will have to move
toward denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2B .0233 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. Realignment
The plat provided indicates that there is an area to the east that the dwelling can be shifted to avoid
buffer impacts. The realignment would shift the dwelling towards the septic field and away from the
riparian buffer. Indicate why this can not be accomplished.
2. Impacts
In the application under Part 2: Proposed Activity #1 in bold letters at the end of the paragraph
indicates that the area of buffer impacts be given in square footage. Please provide this information.
3. Plat
Provide a corrected plat with all new impacts shown on site (ie. New dwelling, driveway, septic field,
ect.)
