Comments:
D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project.
The stormwater drainage system has been designed to convey all stormwater runoff to a wet detention pond which will reduce
nutrients and atenuate flow prior to discharge through the buffer. The stormwater discharge from the wet pond is the only constructon
activity planned within the buffer.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
A wet detention pond will be constructed to reduce nutrients and reduce peak flow before discharge through the buffer
E. Diffuse Flow Plan
la. What type of SCM are you providing? *
Level Spreader
Vegetated Conveyance (lower SHWT)
Wetland Swale (higher SHWT)
Proposed project will not create concentrated stormwater flow through the buffer
Other SCM that removed minimum of 30% nitrogen
lb. Describe how diffuse flow will be maintained:*
The flow will be concentrated but nutrients will be removed prior to discharge by the wet detention pond. The wet pond has been
designed in compliance with the NCDEQ BMP Manual criteria.
