REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. King:
On November 28, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated November
26, 2007 to impact 2,770 square feet (ftz) of Zone 1 protected riparian buffers and 730 square feet (ft2) of
Zone 2 protected riparian buffers to construct the proposed commercial development at the above-
referenced property. The DWQ has determined that your application was incomplete and/or provided
inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional information in order to
process your application to impact protected wetland, streams and/or buffers on the subject property.
Therefore, unless we receive the additional information requested below, we will have to move toward
denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506 and 2B .0233(8) and will place this
project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information. Please provide the following
information so that we may continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
1. You must provide documentation that the scour hole will provide diffuse flow with the present slopes.
Per DWQ's BMP manual, your slopes must not exceed 4%. It appears from your plan sheet that the
slopes do exceed 4%.
2. It appears that the proposed mulch path in Zones 1 & 2 of the protected riparian buffers can be moved or
reconfigured to only impact Zone 2 of the protected riparian buffer. Please revise your plan sheet to
reflect this.
3. The detention pond outlet will need to be removed from the buffer. Please reconfigure your plan sheet to
reflect this change.
Please respond within three weeks of the date of this letter by sending this information to me in writing
and Lauren Witherspoon of the DWQ Raleigh Regional Office. If we do not hear from you within three
weeks, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue this project and we will consider the project as
withdrawn.
This letter only addresses the application review and does not authorize any impacts to wetlands, waters
or protected buffers. Please be aware that any impacts requested within your application are not o°e
