Comment 6: 2x signed&sealed hard copies of a plan sheet showing the following corrected additions:
• Surface water area delineation. This item is required per 15A NCAC 02H.1042(2)(g)(iii).
Please make this more clear on the plans.
• Vegetated setback from surface waters. This item is required per 15A NCAC 02H
.1042(2)(g) & Section VI, 8p of the Application. Vegetated setbacks are required from all
surface waters (more information can be found in 15A NCAC 02H.1003(4) & .1017(10)).
• If applicable, Grading plan that outlines proposed contours and drainage patterns. This item
is required by 15A NCAC 02H.1042(2)(g)((iv) &(v)).
• If applicable, BUA dimensions and layouts. This item is required per Section VI, 8j of the
Application. The BUA information shown in the Application, Supplement-EZ Form, and
calculations should be verified from the plans.
• Details of roads, sidewalks, drainage features, piped collection systems, and the proposed
storm water controls. This item is required per Section VI 81 of the application.
Response 6:A natural resource assessment was performed on June 06, 2023, by dewberry engineers
inc. In which no wetlands, sensitive features, or surface waters were found onsite. Therefore, a
vegetative setback is not applicable to the project and has been made clear on the plans through a
bolded callout. Grading for this project is minimal and only pertains to the proposed berm and diversion
ditch. Top of berm and bottom of ditch elevations have been provided along with BUA dimensions.
There will be no grading for the gravel area, but instead the contractor will install a geotextile fabric on
top of the existing ground and put 8" of gravel on top, so drainage patterns will remain the same. Items
required per section VI 81 have already been included with the previously submitted package.
Dewberry Engineers Inc. has prepared a revised supplemental package for your review and approval
for the above referenced project, original package submitted on 11/17/2023. Included in this submittal
are:
• $1,000 Application Fee (Check No. 201397)
• One (1) original Supplement-EZ Form
• One (1) original O&M Agreement Form
• One (1) copy of the Secretary of State documentation
• Two (2) revised copies of the site plan drawing
• One (1) revised stormwater package with modified calculations and above items included
Should you have any additional questions or concerns, please feel free to contact me via phone
[phone] or e-mail ([e-mail]).
Sincerely,
Dewberry Engineers Inc.
