A. DESCRIPTION OF PROJECT
Location of Project
The Town of Princeville is located geographically within the coastal plains region of North Carolina
within Edgecombe County. The Town is approximately 1 mile south of the Town of Tarboro. Major
transportation corridors include Highway 258 which runs east to west and Highway 64-Alt to the
which runs north to south.
Topography within the project area is generally flat, sloping between 0-11.5 percent. Manmade
drainage features such as swales and roadside ditches collect and remove runoff.
The majority of the land and soil disturbance will result from the work associated with site grading and
utility construction will take place within Town owned property.

Existing and Future Drainage Patterns
The project area is located in flood Zone X and is protected by a levee. No base flood elevations are
available within this zone.
Geological features for the Town of Princeville are typical of the North Carolina coastal plain region
with gradual elevation changes draining to a common tributary and discharge point. There are no
sudden or significant elevation changes in the area. The specific topography within the project area
consists of gradual elevation changes leading to roadside ditches or natural drainage features.
All stormwater run-off from the Farmer's Market will be captured in 15-inch HDPE Storm Sewer
and discharged into the existing roadside ditch. Stormwater run-off from the walking trail and
basketball court will follow the existing natural drainage features and will sheet flow into the Tar
River.
Impervious Surface
The overall site consists of a combined 13.53 acres divided into five different parcels all owned by
the Town of Princeville. Approximates 0.17 acres of existing impervious surface will be removed
during the demolition phase of the project and approximately 0.94 acres of impervious surfaces will
be added. The additional 0.77 acres of impervious surfaces added represents 5.7% of the overall
site.
