Management Practice (BM?) in accordance with the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ) BMP Manual Quly 2007) and NC Administrative Rules according to Water Quality including Title 15A, North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 21-1, Section .1000 "Stormwater Management" (1 5A NCAC 2H .1000). 2.0 SOIL MEDIA The soil media is very important to the overall efficiency of the proposed wet detention basin. Topsoil and subsoil will be removed during the construction of the system. It is recommended that a layer of 2"-4" of topsoil be applied to the finished soil surface to aid in the establishment of plantings. 2.1 Soil Analysis & Amendment The nutrient status of the soil is essential in order to have a successful establishment of plant species. It is recommended that a soil sample be collected after excavation, prior to planting in order to allow time to ameliorate the soil where needed. It is recommended small amount of fertilizer be used at or immediately before plant establishment. 2.2 Soil Specifications The soil medium should be free of stones, large roots and any large debris that which could interrupt proposed or anticipated grading and landscape planting schedules. 3.0 HYDROLOGIC ZONES 3.1 Shallow Water The shallow water hydrologic zone includes all land (during drought)or water surface area between the designed normal pool elevation inward the basin to a water depth of 6 inches below normal pool elevation. The total area included in the shallow water zone is 12,880 square feet (0.3 acres) including the forebay and main pool. 3.2 Shallow Land (wetland The shallow land (wetland) hydrologic zone includes all land or water surface area between the designed normal pool elevation outward the basin to a height of 12 inches above normal pool elevation. The total area included in the shallow land is 17,326 square feet (0.4 acres) including the forebay and main pool. 3.3 Top of berm and slopes I.t is recommended a seed mix be used to stabilize soil after finish grade. Once established it is recommended planting centipede grass as fnushed sod on top of berm, side slopes and foot slopes. 4.0 PLANT SELECTION 4.1 Shallow Water Emergent Plants Botanical Name Common Name Juncos ffurus Softrush Plantago major Common Plantain Sagittaria lancifolia Builtongue Zi:Zaneopsis miliacea Water millet 4.2 Shallow Land Herbaceous Plants Botanical Name Common Name Asclepias incarnate Swamp milkweed Carrx vulpinoidea Fox sedge Juncos �usus Softrush Eupalorium f lulosum Joe Pye weed I 4.3 Centipede Centipede is an acid loving grass, which fortunately should do well at this site. Centipede is best planted in late spring, early summer when soil temperatures are 70 degrees or more and all danger of frost and freezing is over. 5.0 PLANT PLACEMENT 5.1 Shallow Water Plants will be placed 1 bare root plant per 4 square feet of shallow water in both forebay and main pool areas. The total number of shallow water emergent vegetation to be planted is 3220 plants. 5.2 Shallow Land Plants will be placed 1 bare root plant per 4 square feet of shallow land in both forebay and main pool areas. The total number of shallow land herbaceous vegetation to be planted is 4332 plants. 6.0 PLANT SCHEDULE All herbaceous plants within the shallow water zones shall be installed between April 1 and July 31. Installation of herbaceous shallow water plants after this date entails an increased risk of failure and may only be performed upon mutual agreement between the installation contractor and owner.
