This doesn't actually mention the level spreader, but it was present on the drawing to which Progress Energy
refers.
Please let me if you think this documentation is sufficient.
Thanks,

pond that lies within the PEC easement area.
4. The owner/developer shall have responsibility for addressing any mosquito abatement issues
resulting from the pond location.
5. All ground facilities must be capable of bearing the weight of PEC maintenance vehicles. The
encroachment shall not interfere with PEC's ability to travel up and down the easement area.
6. OSHA minimum equipment safe working distances shall be maintained between line conductors and
any construction equipment operating within the limits of the PEC easement area.
7. None of the excavated topsoil shall be permanently placed or stockpiled within the one-hundred and

PEC will use reasonable care to avoid damage to said encroachment during construction,
maintenance, operation and removal of its transmission line, but PEC will not be liable for any
damage that might occur during the performance of these activities.
Landscape plantings within the easement area shall not exceed a maximum height of twelve (12)

Harold,
Per our conversation from last Friday, I am writing to further explain the reasons behind our request for installing
a permanent storm water pond that will be partially located within the Progress Energy easement located within
the Drayton Reserve subdivision.
As you are aware there is currently a temporary sediment control pond located in the essentially the same
location as the permanent pond will be. The existing device was originally planned to be temporary and was
slated to be removed once the subdivision was complete and there was no longer a need for sediment control.
This device was constructed in the summer of 2007. However, in November 2007 there was a change in DWQ
regulations, which govern storm water discharges. The new regulations decreased the amount of impervious
service that is allowed for any given project before that project must install permanent storm water devices.
Since our project was already under construction and impervious surface allocations were already locked in, we
are being forced to convert our temporary device into a permanent device. This conversion will actually consist
of reducing the footprint of the temporary device and the permanent device will have less of an impact on your
easement than the temporary device currently does.
We understand that your engineering department has approved the plans that were submitted directly to you by
our consultant, Summit Engineering. We would like to get from you a written approval that can be provided to
DWQ and that acknowledges the approval from Progress Energy. We would like to keep the process as simple
as possible for you and would encourage you to simply reply to this email with your approval.
Thanks!
