Phase II Application
Scott,

I was looking over the additional information you provided for these projects on December 20, 2022. Everything looks
good except for a few small issues:

Please correct the following with SW6201005 (Phase I Minor Modification):
- Supplement-EZ Form:
o Cover Page:
 Line 2 – Please use the project area (13.29 ac) instead of the total property area (19.42 ac).
o Drainage Area Page:
 Lines 5 & 6 – Please use the project area (578,912 sf) instead of the total property area (845,721
sf).
 Line 18 – NOTE: Line 18 = Line 8 / Line 5 = 130938 sf / 578,912 sf = 22.6% ≠ 24%. Please revise as
needed.

Please correct the following with SW6220902 (Phase II Application):
- Swale Design – Swales 4, 6, 7, 8, & 11 have a permanent matting. Please ensure that the design information in
the Supplement-EZ Form reflects this (specifically, the Vallowable, Vactual, and Flow Depth). NOTE: The Vactual
should not exceed the Vallowable (Vallowable can be increased based on the matting rating).
- While not required, you may wish to explain (in the additional information section on the low-density page) that
the 100 ft minimum length downstream of the curb outlet system is being provided partially by swale and
partially by vegetated receiving area so the swale may be shorter than 100 ft long. Typically, either swales or
vegetated receiving areas are used to meet this requirement so clarification may be useful to help avoid
potential issues for the permittee in the future.

Please provide the following:
- 1x hard copy & 1x electronic copy of the revised pages of the Supplement-EZ Forms for the subject projects with
the above comments addressed.

Hard copies should be mailed to me at the following address:
For FedEx/UPS:
Jim Farkas
512 N. Salisbury Street, Office 640M
Raleigh, NC 27604

For USPS:
Jim Farkas
1612 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, NC 27699-1612

Hand Delivery:
1

Please reach out to me prior to hand delivering a submission to make sure that I (or someone else in my group)
will be able to receive the submission. Do not leave the package in the foyer with the security guard.

NOTE: Hard copies should not be sent to a Regional Office. Doing so will delay the review process and the
submission package may be lost while being sent from the Regional Office to me in the Central Office.

Electronic copies should be uploaded at the following location:
https://edocs.deq.nc.gov/Forms/SW-Supplemental-Upload

I have drafted up the permits already so if you could email me the revised pages of these two forms (I can print out hard
copies and upload the electronic files), we can issue the permit mod without a lengthy re-review (should only take a day
or so).

Sorry for the delay,
Let me know if you have any questions.

Good morning,

We received your post-construction stormwater permit application for the above mentioned project on 9/1/2022.
Reviews under the standard permitting process generally take 75 calendar days, but can take up to 90 calendar days per
statute (our other reviewer, Corey Anen, no longer works for the State, so this review may exceed 75 days). Please
upload all documents that you mailed into our office through the link provided below. Be sure to choose the Central
Office as the Primary Contact office.

https://edocs.deq.nc.gov/Forms/SW-Supplemental-Upload

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please ensure that each file is uploaded under its appropriate file type. Additional file types can be
entered into the electronic form by clicking on the “Add Another Post-Construction File Upload” link directly below the
“State Stormwater Information Uploads” section of the form. Please do not upload entire plan sets through this form,
but rather upload the relevant individual sheets under the appropriate file type. Selecting the correct file type ensures
that the files are properly named in the electronic repository and it helps expedite the review process.

Please type in permit #: SW6220902

If you have any questions, please contact Jim Farkas [e-mail] 919-707-3646.

Thank you,
