NCDEQ Stormwater Permit Application
Response to Comments
• Application Form, Section El—Per the design,this project is a high density project(it is noted
that the%BUA for the project is below 24%, however,there are other aspects that a project
must meet in order to be considered as a low-density project (one of which is the avoidance of
piping which is not met by this project). Please revise as needed.
RESPONSE: Resolved.The application has been updated to a high-density project.
• Application Form, Section E5, Surface Water Area—Please note that you are only required to
include the surface water area of surface waters that are shown on the USGS topographic map
for this item. Surface waters associated with SCMs are not required to be included. Please revise
if needed.
RESPONSE: Resolved.The application has been updated to state 0 sf for total surface water
area.
• Please upload the electronic files for this project as indicated in the 9/26/23 email. Electronic
files are required per 15A NCAC 02H .1043(3) and must be uploaded through the following
link: https://edocs.deq.nc.gov/Forms/SW-Supplemental-Upload
RESPONSE: Resolved. Electronic copies of the submittal items have been uploaded to the link
above.
• Please ensure that the BUA associated with the future parking spaces is accounted for in the
Proposed New BUA in Section E5 of the Application (since the electronic files were not provided,
I cannot say for sure if this is the case, however, based on approximation,the future parking
areas do not appear to be included in the proposed new BUA for the project) and that the future
parking areas are mentioned in the construction sequence. If you do not wish to permit the BUA
associated with the future parking spaces at this time, please remove them from the submittal
items or place a note indicating that the BUA associated with these future parking areas is not
covered under this permit(the permit will then need to be modified to include the future
parking area if/when the future parking areas will be built).
RESPONSE: Resolved. All proposed impervious area including the future parking has been
included for the proposed BUA in the updated application.
• The scale shown on plan sheet C4.01 appears to be incorrect.The plan sheet indicates a scale of
1"=20' whereas a scale of 1"=30' appears to be the actual scale of the drawing. Please revise.
RESPONSE: Resolved.The scale on sheet C4.01 has been updated to 1"=30'.
• While note required,you can account for the existing BUA that is currently located on-site and is
being removed in Section E5 of the Application.
RESPONSE: Resolved. We maintained 0 sf for existing BUA as it is fairly negligible and is being
removed.
