CERTIFIED MAIL: RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
Mr. Michael Whitehead

Cary, NC 27511
Subject Property: Weavers Pond Subdivision
Beaverdam Creek [030402, 27-27, C, NSW]
REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Whitehead:
Alan W. Klimek, P.E. Director
Division of Water Quality
DWQ Project # 05-2070
Wake County
On November 16, 2005, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated
November 16, 2005, to impact 0.494 acres of wetland, 237 linear feet of stream and 21,632
square feet of Zone 1 protected Neuse River basin riparian buffer and 14, 43.5 square feet of
Zone 2 protected Neuse River basin riparian buffer to construct the proposed residential
subdivision. On February 14, 2006, the DWQ received additional information from you.
However, the DWQ has determined that your application remains incomplete and/or provided
inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional information in
order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams 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 2H .0506 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. The DWQ still maintains that the road crossing labeled as "Road D - Crossing #3" on the
plans does not appear to be necessary for development of the site as currently proposed.
Please eliminate the road crossing and submit revised plans for this area. Additionally, in
your correspondence to the DWQ dated February 14, 2006, you indicated, "this crossing
is needed for internal connectivity, to insure safety due to the number of lots served and
to accommodate future development to the northern portion of the property." Based on
the submitted plans, the DWQ believes this impact and the impact labeled "Future
Impact" to be unnecessary. The DWQ also has concerns with cumulative impacts
associated with the "Future Development", and avoidance and minimization issues with
the citing of lots adjacent to the pond located within the "Future Development" area.
