Good evening,
The project appears to be complete except for one issue. Please provide the on-site determination performed by
Authority staff and the permit can be processed. If it is determined that Authority staff that the surface water
exists on-site, please revise the package as necessary.
1. Previous comment: Please include the required vegetated setback from the existing on-site pond
(surface water) in the main set ofplans in accordance with 15A NCAC 02H.1042(2)(g)(iii).
We use the USGS topographic map to determine if there are surface waters present on-site. We understand
that these maps may not accurately reflect existing site conditions for all sites which is why relief from the
surface water requirements can be allowed when surface waters are not present in accordance with 15A
NCAC 02B .0714(3)(a).
When a landowner or other affected party believes that the maps listed in Sub-Item (3)(a) of this
Rule have inaccurately depicted surface waters or the specific origination point of a stream, or
the specific origination point of a stream is in question or unclear, he or she shall request the
Authority to make an on-site determination. On-site determinations shall be made by Authority
staff that are certified pursuant to G.S. 143-214.25A. Registered Foresters under Chapter 89B of
the General Statutes who are employees of the North Carolina Forest Service of the Department
of Agriculture and Consumer Services can make on-site determinations for forest harvesting
operations and practices. On-site determinations shall expire five years from the date of the
determination. Any disputes over on-site determinations shall be referred to the Director in
writing within 60 calendar days of written notification from the Authority. The Director's
determination is subject to review as provided in G.S. 150B.
Barring this on-site determination, it is assumed that this surface water is present and must be accounted
for. Please either contact staff from the Fayetteville Regional Office to make a determination with regard
to this surface water or account for this surface water by showing this surface water on the plans,
excluding the surface area from the project area, and including the required vegetated setback. This on-
site determination was not provided, and USACE jurisdictional waters are distinct from water of the
state. Therefore a determination must be made by an individual named above.
Thankyou,

Good Afternoon,
We received your post-construction stormwater permit application for the subject project on 12/29/23. Reviews under
the Standard permitting process can take up to 90 calendar days to complete. You can see where this project stands in
the review queue by emailing postconstruction@deg.nc.gov(We have an autoreply set up that has the review queue on
it). Please upload all documents that you mailed into our office through the link provided below. Be sure to choose the
Central Office as the Primary Contact office.
https://edocs.deg.nc.gov/Forms/SW-Supplemental-Upload
IMPORTANT NOTE: Please ensure that each file is uploaded under its appropriate file type. Additional file types can be
entered into the electronic form by clicking on the "Add Another Post-Construction File Upload" link directly below the
"State Stormwater Information Uploads" section of the form. YOU MUST CLICK ON THE"ADD ANOTHER POST-
CONSTRUCTION FILE UPLOAD"TO ADD ADDITIONAL FILE TYPES TO THE SUBMISSION. Merely changing the file type
dropdown as you upload the various files (without adding additional file uploads)will upload all of the files as the last
file type selected, the submission will get flagged during review, and you will need to resubmit the files. Please do not
upload entire plan sets through this form, but rather upload the relevant individual sheets under the appropriate file
type. Selecting the correct file type ensures that the files are properly named in the electronic repository and it helps
expedite the review process. NOTE:We do not require and we discourage the upload/submission of extraneous plan
sheets (such as lighting plans, utility plans, striping plans, sight distance plans, etc...) as these files are not needed for
review.
Please type in permit#: SW6231205
This project will be reviewed by Jim Farkas, if you have any questions, please contact them at
postconstruction@deg.nc.gov or at 919-707-3646.

Kaitlin,
Please see the revised page attached. The Site area has been updated to reflect no costal wetlands with the percent
impervious of the site being updated per these changes.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions!
Thanks!

Good Afternoon,
We received your application for a new post-construction stormwater permit on 12/29/23. At this time,
the submission is not administratively complete and cannot be accepted for review in its current

per 15A NCAC 02H .1042(2)(a) and per Section VI, 1 of the Application):
1. Section IV, 5—As this project is not in a coastal county, there should be no coastal
wetlands. Please revise this value and the total project area.
2. Section IV, 8—The percent impervious area for the project area does not appear to be
calculated correctly. Project density calculation information can be found in 15A NCAC
02H .1003(1).
As these items are minor things,the revised page of this application can be emailed and I
can add it to your existing application.
