RE: Dormie Club
DWQ Project # 07-1444
(Lower Little River) [030614, 18-23-(24), WSIII, HQW]
Dear Mr. McMillan:

WETIANp,Q A«~ Sf()(t~,~yq~ BRANCH
In response to your letter dated 11 September 2007, concerning the need for additional
information for the proposed Dormie Golf Club near West End, Moore County (DWQ Project # 07-
1444), we provide the following information:
The proposed Dormie Golf Club is a separate project from the planned residential development
associated with the club. Additionally, the proposed golf club tract is under separate ownership from
the surrounding land that may be residentially developed and any proposed development impacts will
be submitted on a separate permit application.
In your letter, additional information item numbers (#) 1, 3, 4 and 9 refer to "all phases" of the
project. The golf club is the only phase of this project. The entire site boundary (item # 1) and all
Waters of the State (item # 10) were submitted with our application. Stormwater (item # 3, 4 and 5)
will be managed with grass swales. No specific design plan exists for these features. The entire golf
course is lacking a fixed site plan due to the nature of the project; the course architects plan to design
the course onsite during construction (item # 2). There are currently no planned sewer lines on the
tract (item #6). Wetland impacts were shown on separate attachments with the permit application; I
have enclosed a large scale map to show wetland impact locations onsite (item # 7). We do not
anticipate any indirect or cumulative impacts from this project, nor does it meet any of the 3 criteria
outlined in the DWQ policy guidance that would clearly result in indirect cumulative impacts (item #
8).
