REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION-EXPRESS REVIEW PROGRAM
Dear Mr. Hardin:
On December 27, 2006, the Division of Water Quality (the "Division") received your PCN application for
the above-referenced project. The DWQ has determined that this information is incomplete. Please
provide the additional information requested below in order to continue review of your project and to
prevent denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506:
Operation and Maintenance Manual:
a) The Operation & Maintenance manual for the wet detention ponds and for dry detention
basins refers multiple times to the fertilization of vegetation. Fertilization of BMPs in
Nutrient Sensitive Waters is carefully controlled. DWQ will allow aone-time application
during establishment and another application if an area must be replanted and/or reseeded.
The one-time application of fertilizer should be the minimum amount required for success.
Please provide a revised O&M manual reflecting compliance with the above statements.
2. Stub Road:
a) The street located along Lots 64-66 (Pearl Road Extension) cannot be permitted as
designed (i.e. no logical terminus). Please resubmit your plans showing the road
terminating into a cul-de-sac. If the City of Raleigh requires this road to be stubbed
with the intention of completing the road, a quantitative cumulative impact analysis
will be required.
Please note that NCDWQ reserves the right to address additional stormwater-related issues for this
project within the next 10 days. There was no mention of a stormwater management plan review on the
initial interest form received on December 7, 2006 and stormwater review staff availability is very limited
during the holiday season.
Please respond within five (5) days (in acknowledgement of the holiday season vacation difficulties, the
days have been extended from 3 days to 5 days) of the date of this letter by sending five (5} copies of the
above information in writing.
