Date: Today File Name: Subject line of email DWR#: 2022-0620v2 Thank you so much, Katie From: Merritt, Katie Sent: Wednesday, September 13, 2023 2:19 PM To: Jenkins, Barrett <Barrett.Jenkins@davey.com> Cc: Hartshorn, Blake <blake.hartshorn@deq.nc.gov> Subject: BPDP Review - Creeping Swamp A Hey Barrett, Pursuant to Titles 15A NCAC 02B .0295 and 15A NCAC 02B .0703 (e), a provider shall submit a project plan proposal to the Division for review and approval that includes specific elements of the project. On March 9, 2023, Restoration Systems, LLC (RS) submitted a Bank Parcel Development Package (Plan) for the Creeping Swamp A Site, to the Division, for review and approval. According to the initial review by DWR staff of the subject Plan, some elements were either not provided, not explained thoroughly, not accurate or lacking in sufficient information. Therefore, until DWR receives an updated Plan addressing all comments and edits provided in the attached 1) comment summary and 2) PDF version of the document itself, DWR cannot finalize the review of the Plan or issue an approval of the Plan. In an effort to be as efficient as possible at providing comments to IRS during this busy time, I have provided my comments in a unique format. Attached are the comments & edits provided within the actual PDF of a condensed Plan (without Appendices) as well as a comment summary. When IRS is ready to submit their final project Plan, please include a summary of all responses by IRS to the DWR comments acknowledging how IRS addressed the comments. Please upload the final Plan using our Mitigation Project Information Upload Form through this link: https://edocs.deq.nc.gov/Forms/Mitigation_ Information_ Upload . Please note the DWR ID#2022- 0620 (version 2) on all electronic submissions for this project. Thank you for your patience during this time and if you have any difficulty reading though the comments or edits please let Blake or I know.

RS has to measure credits off the features from tob and landward. Credit assets cannot be soley derived off Feature 1a since there is a ditch here. RS needs to measure credits off Ditch E and show those credits in the Project credit table. the ditch origin is depicted in the viability letter as originating within the easement boundary. Add a point showing the ditch origin of E. Non - diffused flow is not required to be deducted off of E since E does not go beyond the easement boundary., *Number: 5 Author: kymerritt Subject: Sticky Note Date: 9/13/2023 2:04:01 PM add "ditch" to legend.
