additional information from you, however, the DWQ has determined that your application remains

information in order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams on the
subject property. Therefore, unless we receive five copies of the additional information requested below,
we will place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information. If we do not
receive the requested information, your project will be formally returned as incomplete. Please provide
the following information so that we may continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Please provide intermittent/perennial stream determination documentation on the site (upstream
-and-downstream photos and DWQ stream identification forms).
2. Buffer mitigation is required for all road crossings that impact 150 linear feet of riparian buffer or
more. Please submit a mitigation plan detailing the amount of buffer impact at crossings 1 & 3
and how the impact will be mitigated.
3. Please provide documentation from the NCEEP indicating their willingness to accept your
request to purchase buffer mitigation credit to mitigate for the proposed crossings I & 3 buffer
impacts listed in your PCN application per section VIII, No. 2.

4. Please provide a more specific, detailed mechanism to assure DWQ that:
a.) All lots are buildable without additional wetland, stream or buffer impact, and
b.) That stormwater from the entire site will be treated since the site is in the Neuse basin
either through level spreaders for sites with low impervious coverage or other means for
higher impervious coverage
5. Please re-submit your site plans on full plan sheets at a scale of no smaller than 1 "=50'.
6. Per the requirements of the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rule, all stormwater drainage from this site
must meet the state's diffuse flow requirements as set forth in Chapter 8 of the North Carolina
Stormwater BMP Manual, available at: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/bmp forms.htm Please
provide one Level Spreader Supplement Form for each proposed level spreader, available at:
http://h2o.enr.state.rft.us/su/bmp forms.htm. Please include the Required Items checklist and all
items listed therein. If the filter strip is too steep for a level spreader in any location, then you

stormwater generated•by this project. For each proposed BMP, please provide a completed BMP
