NC Stream Temperature Classification Maps can be found under the Mitigation Concepts tab on the Wilmington District's RIBITS website. F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR) ***Recent changes to the stormwater rules have required updates to this section.*** 1. Diffuse Flow Plan 1a.Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?

If the project is subject to a state implemented riparian buffer protection program, include a plan that fully documents how diffuse flow will be maintained. All Stormwater Control Measures(SCM)s must be designed in accordance with the NC Stormwater Design Manual. Associated supplement forms and other documentation shall be provided. What type of SCM are you providing? Level Spreader Vegetated Conveyance(lower SHWT) Wetland Swale(higher SHWT) Other SCM that removes minimum 30%nitrogen Proposed project will not create concentrated stormwater flow through the buffer (check all that apply) For a list of options to meet the diffuse flow requirements,click here. 2.
