Chris,
Mr. Conner has stabilized all areas of erosion on the wetpond sideslopes with sod, and had
all vegetation mowed to less than 6 inches in height.
Attached are some photos taken today of the work done.
In our stormwater mod we will be proposing a stormwater pipe extension along the service road
from the Carwash on outparcel # 5 and a drop inlet: at the Ice Machine to catch the BUA and
direct it to the pond.
Can we go ahead and get an express meeting scheduled as soon as possible for both the Conner
SW mod and the Aarons furniture offsite permit?
Thanks

Dave good afternoon,
When I spoke to Georgette about the project you are working on I asked her if the
noncompliant carwash and unpermitted ice house and Bojangles would hold up the submittal for
your project. She told me they would not but I did not ask her about the pond being out of
compliance. The policies for additional permits for a noncompliant BMP are that the BMP must
be brought into compliance before a new permit can be issued. As far as submitting a new
project before the BMP is complaint that'is a grey area, at least as I think it to be, and I
will have to ask Georgette that specific question as I did not when I spoke to her last week.
She is out today so tomorrow will be the earliest I can speak with her. I would suggest that
you send her an email regarding this matter as well.
I have been trying to get the comments to your client and you since midweek last week but
have be unable to do so. I was required to write NOV's for the car wash and master permit

and will have to write one for the Bojangles as well. I have been waiting for signatures but
I am attaching the master permit to this mail so that you can get with your client regarding
the maintenance issues with the pond and make a plan to deal with them. The dates may change
and perhaps some other things as well, I don't really know, but I believe the jest of the
comments will remain unchanged. Therefore, I am confident that you can begin working towards
addressing the maintenance issues with the pond and even the engineering for the carwash and
ice house.
The Bojangles is just permitting really as we discussed on site but will not slow down the
permit process for the master permit. Nor will the carwash or ice house. As for the pond
itself I am unsure but I suspect the answer will be bring it into compliance first, just my
guess.
Ok give me a call if you have any other questions,
chris

Janet,
We're a little confused. Ron received a voice mail from Chris saying we can submit. If you
have a copy of the NOV for the site can you forward it to us.
Is the pond going to have to be inspected once more before we can set up the express meeting?

Chris has written an NOV on the site and I should be able to fax you a copy soon. I will need
to fax it to the owner as well - so that you don't get it before the owner does. The
stormwater bmp (pond) must be in compliance before we can accept the application for
modification.
I will be in until 5:00. Let me know if you need more info or have questions.
Thanks,

Ron forwarded your message about the Bojangles onto me. Can we go ahead and schedule another
express meeting for the project as long as DWQ will accept it based on the fact that Mr.
Wallace is going to bring the cleaners and the ice machine into compliance in his mod?

hello chris, I certainly do not have a problem with certifying the survey, my people did it yesterday under the supervision of
Phil Collier PLS.
I did call and ask Jay Connor, Wallace Connors son, about previous maintenance, he indicated that the pond is cleaned
out on average between
2 and 3 year intervals. The last time, the best he could recall , was about 18 months ago. They really did not have any
"maintenance records"
except cancelled checks. Is there anything else with the pond that would prevent us from going ahead and meeting on
the proposed applications?
dave is out today but should be back tomorrow. you can just let me know at your convenience. I appreciate your help.
thanks, ron

Ron I have review and compared the topo of the pond you provided with the plans and it does appear that the depths of
the pond are as called for on the plans. From the data you have provided it does appear that there is no sediment
accumulation in the pond bottom that would need removal. If you are confidant in the topo then I would agree
sediment removal is not necessary.
It does make me wonder however. The permit was approved in 1998 and I would expect that in 12 years at least some
sediment accumulation would have occurred in that time. At least: it seems to me that in the corner of the pond
opposite the outlet structure would be some wash down of sediment into the pond due to the erosion that you and I
observed during our site visit. Yet I can see none form the topo provided.
Has the pond been cleaned out before? Are there maintenance records documenting the pond maintenance?
If you are confident that the topo data provided is accurate then I can see no need to clean out sediment that isn't
there. However our office will require a certification (PE sealed) attesting to the accuracy of the information provided.
If you have any questions just give me a call or mail,
chris

Hello Chris,
In anticipation of having to clean out the stomwater pond onsite we had our surveyors get depth readings and water
level readings. Attached is a topo of the existing pond depths.
Results
Perm pool elevation = 34.70'
Forebay Bot. elevation = 30.00'
Storage Pond Bot. Elevation = 27.00
Both the storage pond and forebay appear to be at design depth or deeper already, which should not necessitate being
cleaned out. Can we have this requirement taken out of the NOV?
Thanks
