Division of Water Quality

DWQ Project # 05-2070
Wake County
CERTIFIED MAIL: RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
Mr. Michael Whitehead
MacGregor Development Company
201 Sannon Oaks Circle, Suite 201
Cary, NC 27511
Subject Property: Weavers Pond Subdivision
Beaverdam Creek [030402, 27-27, C, NSW]
REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Whitehead:
On November 16, 2005, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated
November 16, 2005, to impact 0.494 acres of wetland, 237 linear feet of stream and 21,632
square feet of Zone 1 protected Neuse River basin riparian buffer and 14, 435 square feet of
Zone 2 protected Neuse River basin riparian buffer to construct the proposed residential
subdivision. On February 14, 2006, the DWQ received additional information from you.
However, the DWQ has determined that your application remains incomplete and/or provided
inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional information in
order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams 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 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. The DWQ still maintains that the road crossing labeled as "Road D - Crossing #3" on the
plans does not appear to be necessary for development of the site as currently proposed.
Please eliminate the road crossing and submit revised plans for this area. Additionally, in
your correspondence to the DWQ dated February 14, 2006, you indicated, "this crossing
is needed for internal connectivity, to insure safety due to the number of lots served and
to accommodate future development to the northern portion of the property." Based on
the submitted plans, the DWQ believes this impact and the impact labeled "Future
Impact" to be unnecessary. The DWQ also has concerns with cumulative impacts
associated with the "Future Development", and avoidance and minimization issues with
the citing of lots adjacent to the pond located within the "Future Development" area.

Please contact the DWQ within three weeks of the date of this letter to verify that you have
received this letter and that you remain interested in continuing to pursue permitting of your
project and will be providing the DWQ the requested information at a later date. Please contact
me in writing and Eric Kulz 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 authorized (at this time) by the DWQ. Please call Ms. Cyndi Karoly or Mr. Ian
McMillan at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions regarding or would like to set up a
meeting to discuss this matter.

Dear Ms. Karoly: WEl't,AM04 &N9 STORMWATER BRANCH
The purpose of this letter is to respond to your November 22, 2005 letter requesting further information.
The original questions/requests are copied below as they appear on the 11/22/05 letter and are then
followed by our response to each.
Additional Information Requested:
Please indicate all stormwater outfalls on the site plan.
An overall stormwater site plan map is attached for your review. This site plan map includes all
stormwater outfalls proposed within the previously applied for Weavers Pond Subdivision.
2. Please indicate the diffuse flow provision measures on the site plan.
A stormwater plan with an overall stormwater plan map that provides diffuse flow is attached for you
review. This stormwater plan includes dry detention basins followed by level spreaders, timber weir wall
level spreaders and pre-formed scour holes all designed to meet the diffuse flow requirements. In
addition, level spreader worksheets, dry detention worksheets and 2 Operations & Maintenance
Agreements for level spreaders and dry detention basins are included.
3. ?ate road crossing labeled as "Road D-Crossing #3 " on the plans does not appear to be
necessary. Please eliminate the road crossings or provide additional information as to why
it is necessary for this project.
As stated within the Pre-Construction Notification Application, this road crossing is needed for internal
connectivity, to insure safety due to the number of lots served and to accommodate future development to
the northern portion of the property. As such, the applicant is now proposing to cross this feature with a
bottomless culvert and completely spanning both banks to avoid all stream impacts. In the original
application, USACE Stream Quality Assessment Worksheets and DWQ Stream Identification Forms
were completed and submitted, along with photo's of this. unimportant, intermittent stream to emphasize

VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be
listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from
riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts,
permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an
accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial)
should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems.
Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate.
Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for
wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional
space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.

Page 5 of 10
The client requested a preliminary and detailed wetland delineation and Neuse Buffer
evaluation for the protect prior to site plan development The widening of Pippin Road
Crossings 1 and 2) is necessary to accommodate the increased traffic in the area however the
applicant has utilized the existing Right-Of-Way to widen the road so no new stream impacts are
proposed. Crossin g 3 proposes to impact a ditched intermittent stream within an aexicultural
field (see attached USACE & DWO stream forms and photos). This crossing is needed for
internal connectivity to insure safety due to the number of lots served and to accommodate
future development to the northern portion of the property. In addition this is the only
permanent stream impact proposed all high uality perennial streams were avoided Permanent
impacts to wetlands near the southern property (Wetland Impact Map #1) are necessary to
access this portion of the property. An offsite sewer alignment was obtained to minimize
impacts to Neuse buffers and jurisdictional wetlands due to site constraints onsite caused by the
presence of the large buffered pond in the southern portion of the property and stream along the
eastern property line. In addition it was important to the applicant to design this development
with all plotted lots outside of the riparian buffers to minimize the possible riparian buffer
impacts in the future.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's
Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
htlp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmp-ide.html.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
Page 6 of 10
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
We do not believe mitigation should be required for the proposed proiect due to the
efforts of the client to avoid iurisdictional areas to the maximum extent practicable If
mitigation is required Dayment to the NC-EEP is proposed
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at
[phone] to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating
that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form. For
additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP
website at ft://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/mip/l*ndex.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please
check the appropriate box on page five and provide the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 0
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): 0
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0

XIV. Cumulative Impacts (required by DWQ)
Page 9 of 10
Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in additional
development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality? Yes ? No ?
If yes, please submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with
the most recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality policy posted on our website at
http:h2o.ear.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. If no, please provide a short narrative description: We
have reviewed the "DRAFT Internal Polic Cumulative impacts and the 401 Water_ ualit
Certification and Isolated Wetland Pro ams" document re pared b the NC Division of Water
Quality on October 3 2002 version 1.6. The draft states that most residential subdivisions are
unlikely to cause cumulative impacts Weavers Pond Subdivision does not meet any of the three
criteria of private projects that can clearly result in cumulative impacts. We anticipate that you
will advise us if a qualitative or quantitative im act analysis is required
XV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
highest quality.

This channel evaluation form is intended to be used only as a guide to assist landowners and environmental professionals in
gathering the data required by the United States Army Corps of Engineers to make a preliminary assessment of stream
quality. The total score resulting from the completion of this form is subject to USACE approval and does not imply a
particular mitigation ratio or requirement. Form subject to change - version 06/03. To Comment, please call 919-876-8441 x 26.

instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
highest quality.

Re: Reply to the Division of Water Quality's Request for More Information
Weavers Pond
Zebulon, Wake County, NC
Dear Ms. Karoly:
The purpose of this letter is to respond to your February 16, 2006 letter requesting further information.
The original questions/requests are copied below as they appear on the 2/16/06 letter and are then
followed by our response to each.
Additional Information Requested:
1. The DWQ still maintains that the road crossing labeled as "Road D-Crossing #3 " on the
plans does not appear to be necessary for development of the site as currently proposed.
Please eliminate the road crossing and submit revised plans for this area. Additionally, in
your correspondence to the DWQ dated February 14, 2006, you indicated, "this crossing is
needed for internal connectivity, to insure safety due to the number of lots served and to
accommodate future development to the northern portion of the property. " Based on the
submitted plans, the DWQ believed this impact and the impact labeled "Future Impact" to
be unnecessary. The DWQ also has concerns with cumulative impacts associated with the
"Future Development and avoidance and minimization issues with the citing of lots
adjacent to the pond located within the "Future Development" area.
As per our meeting discussion on March 1, 2006, I am providing a copy of the memorandum from
Zebulon's Planning Department regarding their Special Use Permit requirements and Fire Code
Guidelines. These two documents were provided to justify Road D-Crossing #3. These two documents
were also presented to justify the "Future Impacts" and "Future Development".
In addition to the justification provided for Road D-Crossing #3, MacGregor Development Company also
proposes to restore/enhance this riparian buffer along the stream channel associated with this crossing.
The Guidelines for Riparian Buffer Restoration Division of Water Quality-January 2001 document will
be followed for this riparian buffer restoration. Basically, planting two native species trees at a density
sufficient to provide 320 trees per acre at maturity and at an approximate 10x10 feet spacing.
In regards to the avoidance and minimization issues with citing lots adjacent to the pond, it is a
requirement of Zebulon's Special Use Permit that lots are not to be platted within the Neuse 50' Riparian
Buffer.

FIRE DEPARTMENT ACCESS
Based on the 2000 edition of the International Fire Code
The Fire Department is required to respond to a multitude of emergencies in various types of
buildings and occupancies. These include single-family dwellings, apartment buildings,
shopping malls, business complexes, industrial complexes, hospitals, and nursing homes. To
provide effective fire fighting operations, we must be able to reach all structures by way of
approved access roadways, streets, or driveways.
To assist developers and designers in meeting our requirements, we have defined some terms and
listed minimum design standards considered necessary for effective fire fighting operations.
? Fire Department Access
An approved route that is always available for use by fire trucks and is designed to meet fire
equipment load requirements. Except for Loop Lanes, Shared Driveways, and Private
Driveways, all access routes must be at least 20' wide. When a dead-end access route
exceeds 150' in length, an approved turn around area must be provided.
? Public Street Access
A Fire Department Access route on a public right of way. Public street access routes must
comply with the City or County road design standards and also must comply with the
International Fire Code.
? Private Street Access
A Fire Department Access route on private land. Private street access routes must comply
with the International Fire Code.
? Grades
Street grades shall comply with City or County design standards for both Public and Private
Street Access routes. Maximum grade shall not exceed 8% (12% allowed in hilly terrain).
? Grades on Turn Around Areas
Maximum grades on turn around areas shall not exceed 4%.
Residential Cul-De-Sac Residential Looped Lane
a Height
All Fire Department access routes shall have at least 13 feet, 6 inches of vertical clearance
for the entire required width.
u Looped Lane
A Fire Department Access route in a public right of way, consisting of a looped road that
must be at least 16' wide. Looped lanes may be approved for residential subdivisions and
must be designed to approved standards (see design pages).
v Private Driveway
A private driveway designed for the use of occupants of no more than two single-family
dwelling units or one two-family dwelling unit. If the dwelling units are located more than
100' from an approved Fire Department Access route, the private driveway must meet our
minimum design standards: At least 12' wide; grades not to exceed 12%; adequate turn
arounds provided if over 150' long; width to be increased if sharp curves are included;
constructed with an all-weather surface and able to support the weight of a fire truck.
u Shared Driveway
A Fire Department Access route on private property, serving three or more single-family
units. A shared driveway must be at least 16' wide and be designed to approved standards
(see design pages).
u Residential Cul-De-Sac, Commercial/Industrial Cul-De-Sac
An approved turnaround area for public right of ways or private property, designed to Fire
Department standards (see design pages).
v Tee Turnaround, Alternative Turnarounds
An approved turnaround area for private property designed to Fire Department standards (see
design pages).
ACCESS GUIDELINES
The following guidelines represent this department's efforts to maintain consistency
concerning Fire Department emergency access. It is our responsibility to ensure adequate
access for Fire Department emergency responders. We therefore reserve the right to require
modifications to established requirements if, in our opinion, the access cannot be provided or
may be compromised.
Type of Surface
All access roadways shall be finished by application of an all-weather driving surface
of hot mix asphaltic concrete or concrete pavement over a flexible base capable of supporting
a design wheel load of 18,000 pounds (GVW 80,000 pounds minimum; H-20 loading).
The roadway design must be prepared and certified by an engineer registered by the
State of Colorado. Any required Fire Department access within 100 feet of any building
must meet the same wheel-loading criteria.
All required access roadways must be properly maintained and kept clear for
emergency use at all times.
Any alternatives to these specifications must be reviewed and approved by the Grand
Junction Fire Department prior to construction.
Two Points of Access
Providing two points of fire apparatus access has the following benefits:
? If one access route is blocked, emergency responders have a second route to the property.
? If an emergency requires evacuation of an area, the public will have an alternative exit
route should one route be blocked by the emergency incident.
When two points of access are required, they shall be placed a distance apart equal to not
less than one half of the length of the maximum overall diagonal dimension of the property
or area to be served, measured in a straight line between accesses. The Grand Junction
Fire Department does not allow the second access point limited to use by emergency
responders only. The second access must always be available for public use in case the
other access is blocked.
Commercial and Industrial Developments:
? Buildings or facilities exceeding 30 feet or 3 stories in height shall have at least 2 means
of fire apparatus access.
? Buildings or facilities having a gross building area of more than 62,000 square feet shall
have at least 2 means of fire apparatus access. If the buildings or facilities are provided
with an approved automatic fire sprinkler system, the gross building area can be
increased to 124,000 square feet with one access road.
Multi-family Residential Developments:
? Multi-family residential projects having more than 100 dwelling units shall be provided
with at least 2 means of fire apparatus access.
? Multi-family residential projects of up to 200 dwelling units, which are provided with an
approved fire sprinkler system, may have one means of fire apparatus access.
One or Two Family Residential Developments:
? Developments where the number of dwelling units exceeds 30, shall be provided with
separate and approved fire apparatus access roads.
? Developments where the number of dwelling units is 60 or less may be served by a single
fire apparatus access road, provided all dwelling units are provided with approved
residential fire sprinkler systems.
Aerial Apparatus Roadway Width
? Fire apparatus access roadways shall have a minimum unobstructed width of 26 feet in
the immediate vicinity of any building of portion of building more than 30 feet in height.
At least one of the required access routes meeting this condition shall be located within a
minimum of 15 feet and a maximum of 30 feet from the building, and shall be positioned
parallel to one entire side of the building.
Maintenance of Access Roads
Maintenance of the required access shall be considered during the planning stages and
installation of Fire Department access roadways, fire hydrants, or connections. This includes
the potential growth of trees and/or other vegetation over the years.
Divided Entryway
A divided entryway can present a challenge to emergency vehicles. The required width of
the driveable surface in a divided entryway is based on the width of the entryway and that of
the street fronting it.
? If the street fronting the divided entryway is 28 feet wide, each lane of the entryway must
be at least 15 feet wide.
? If the street fronting the divided entryway is 34 feet wide, the entryway lanes may be less
than 15 feet wide, but cannot be less than 12 feet wide.
? For fronting streets wider than 34 feet, entryway lanes must be at least 12 feet wide.
No Parkins Signage
For access routes less than 28 feet wide and for fire apparatus turnaround areas, vehicle
parking is not allowed. No Parking signs, are required. An approved design for the signage
is shown in the Transportation Engineering Design Standards, available from the City of
Grand Junction Department of Public Works.
? For access routes 16 to 22 feet wide, No Parking signs are required along both sides of
the route.
? For access routes 22 to 28 feet wide, No Parking signs are required along one side of the
route.
? For Hammerhead Tees and Alternative Turnarounds, No Parking signs are required
along both sides of the area.
? For Cul-de-sacs, No Parking signs should be placed along the outside of the turnaround
area.
............................................................................
DESIGN STANDARDS
The following pages give examples of Grand Junction Fire Department approved roadway,
turnaround, and turning radius specifications. The last of these pages may be photocopied
onto a transparency as a template for Fire Department turn radius requirements. This is the
template used by the Fire Prevention Bureau when reviewing plans to determine proper
access and is based on the actual size of our fire fighting apparatus.

Other Fire Department Turnarounds and Clearances
Turnouts for Fire Hydrants: For emergency access routes less than 22 feet wide, where fire
hydrants are required along the route, a turnout area for fire trucks is required. The width of the
access road must be at least 20' in the area of the turnout. This turnout area is required so that
when a fire truck utilizes the fire hydrant in an emergency, the access route will still be available
for use by other emergency vehicles.
Intermediate Turnaround Areas: In cases where a single point of access exceeds 600 feet in
length, intermediate turnaround areas are required. The width of the access road must be at least
28 feet in the area of the turnaround. These areas allow emergency vehicles to turn around
without having to drive to the end of a long dead-end road. The intermediate turnarounds must
be provided at a maximum interval of every 500 feet.
Turnouts for Intermediate
Fire Hydrants Turnarounds
Looped Lane Standards

MEMORADUM
To: Bruce Herbert- Macgregor Development Company
From: Lyddia E. Pritchard, Planning Director
Subject: Weavers Pond Roadway Improvements
Date: February 27, 2006
As part of the Special Use Permit approval process for Weavers Pond you provided a Site
Plan and Traffic Impact Analysis. The site plan was approved by the Board of
Commissioners. The roadway design improvements as provided by your firm and the
traffic engineer are integral to maintaining safe and timely access to northern Zebulon
residents. The minor thorough-fares shown on the attached exhibit provide for the access
and interconnectivity required in our Conservation Subdivision zoning. These same
roadway improvements were central to the Zebulon Board of Commissioners as
evidenced by the inclusion of these improvements as a condition of your Special Use
Permit.
Dual access points are a requirement of the 2000 edition of the International Fire Code.
The access points labeled on the attached exhibit (access 1 & access 2) are necessary to
provide for emergency ingress and egress to the 115 homes in the western portion of the
subdivision. Of course permitting with DWQ is necessary to implement the roadway
improvements your site plan approval requires. Please contact me with any suggestions
as to how a second entrance may impact your Special Use Permit.

REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Whitehead:
DWQ Project # 05-2070
Wake County
On November 16, 2005, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated
November 16, 2005, to impact 0.494 acres of wetland, 237 linear feet of stream and 21,632
square feet of Zone 1 protected Neuse River basin riparian buffer and 14, 435 square feet of
Zone 2 protected Neuse River basin riparian buffer to construct the proposed residential
subdivision. On February 14, 2006, the DWQ received additional information from you.
However, the DWQ has determined that your application remains incomplete and/or provided
inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional information in
order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams 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 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:
The DWQ still maintains that the road crossing labeled as "Road D - Crossing #3" on the
plans does not appear to be necessary for development of the site as currently proposed.
Please eliminate the road crossing and submit revised plans for this area. Additionally, in
your correspondence to the DWQ dated February 14, 2006, you indicated, "this crossing
is needed for internal connectivity, to insure safety due to the number of lots served and
to accommodate future development to the northern portion of the property." Based on
the submitted plans, the DWQ believes this impact and the impact labeled "Future
Impact" to be unnecessary. The DWQ also has concerns with cumulative impacts
associated with the "Future Development", and avoidance and minimization issues with
the citing of lots adjacent to the pond located within the "Future Development" area.

IV. Prior Project History
If jurisdictional determinations and/or permits have been requested and/or obtained for this
project (including all prior phases of the same subdivision) in the past, please explain. Include
the USACE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and
certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits,
certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and
buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project,
list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.I.P. project, along with
construction schedules. S&EC conducted a preliminary wetland delineation followed by a
detailed wetland delineation and Neuse Buffer evaluation in April of 2004. Ms. Jennifer
Burdette, formerly of the USAGE, verified our delineation on November 30, 2004. A sign-off
map will be submitted at a later date. Mr. Michael Horan of the NC-DWQ conducted a site visit
to determine features subject to the Neuse Buffer Rules (NBRRO#04-0211; letter is attached).
No previous permits have been issued for the project.
V. Future Project Plans
Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work,
and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application.
No future permit requests are anticipated for this project at this time.
VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be
listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from
riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts,
permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an
accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial)
should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems.
Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate.
Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for
wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional
space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: Permanent impacts associated
with road construction and widening include 0.15 acres of Zone 1 Neuse Buffer, 0.14 acres
of Zone 2 Neuse Buffer. Temporary impacts due to sanitary sewer line installation and

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
The client reauested a nreliminarv and detailed wetland delineation and Neuse Buffer
evaluation for the project prior to site plan development. The widening of Pippin Road
(Crossings 1 and 2) is necessary to accommodate the increased traffic in the area, however the
applicant has utilized the existing Right-Of-Way to widen the road so no new stream impacts are
proposed. Crossing 3 proposes to impact a ditched, intermittent stream within an agricultural
field (see attached USACE & DWO stream forms and photos). This crossing is needed for
internal connectivity, to insure safety due to the number of lots served and to accommodate
future development to the northern portion of the property. In addition, this is the only

OPERATIONS AND MAINTENANCE AGREEME
WEAVERS POND SUBDIVISION n 1
DRY DETENTION BASINS #1, #2, & #3
1. INTRODUCTION
This manual establishes procedures for maintenance of the dry detention pond for the
Weavers Pond Subdivision. These procedures are in compliance with the guidelines of
DWQ Stormwater Runoff Management Policy that requires the dry detention pond be
inspected and maintained as part of the development.
A. Dry Detention Pond
The dry detention pond will function as a stormwater control facility by providing
temporary storage of post-development runoff in excess of pre-development runoff. The
pond is designed to provide a 2-5 day discharge of the volume from a 1" rain in
accordance with Division of Water Quality Policy.
II. MAINTENANCE
A. Vegetation
The dry detention pond has a ground cover of fescue, which, if properly
maintained, will prevent erosion of the embankment and provide an easy surface
for inspection. Grass should be fertilized every October and April.
Re-seeding - Periodically re-seeding may be required to establish grass on
areas where seed did not take or has been destroyed. Before seeding,
fertilizer (12-12-12) should be applied at a minimum rate of 12 to 15 pounds
per 1,000 SF. The seed should be evenly sewn at a rate of three pounds per
1,000 SF. The seed should be covered with soil to the depth of
approximately 114". Immediately following the planting, the area should be
mulched with straw.
Mowing - Grass mowing and removal of weed vegetation will be necessary
for the proper maintenance of the embankment. All slopes should be mowed
when the grass exceeds 8" in height. Acceptable methods include the use of
weed whips or power brush cutters and mowers. Grass and vegetation
clipping shall be bagged and removed from the site, they will not be allowed
to remain on the ground which would result in washing into the storm water
system.
B. Erosion
Erosion occurs when the water concentrates causing failure of the vegetation or
when vegetation dies and sets up the environment for rill erosion and eventually
gullies from the stormwater runoff. Proper care of vegetative areas that develop
erosion is required to prevent more serious damage to the slopes. Rills and
gullies should be filled with suitable soil compacted and then seeded. Where
eroded areas are observed, the cause of the erosion should be addressed to
prevent a continued maintenance problem.
C. Standing Water
• Areas where water "stands" shall be re-graded to provide a minimum 0.5%
slope.
D. Storm Water Sewers/Culverts
A. Structural Elements - At a minimum, the structural elements of the
underground stormwater culverts should be thoroughly inspected once
a year. Several of the structural elements may need more frequent
inspections. The inspections should include the following:
The inside of the structure should be inspected for cracks,
spalling, joint failure or leaks a minimum of once per year. If
signs of cracks, leaks, misalignment, sagging or settlement of the
structure or storm sewers are observed, a Civil Engineer or
Geotechnical Engineer should be retained to determine the
probable cause and recommended remediation.
The orifice should be inspected and storm sewers should be
inspected for debris or sediment accumulation after every major
storm event. Any sediment or debris removal should be removed
to prevent blockage. Sediment shall not be flushed into storm
system and shall be collected and removed from the site.
The outlet pipe should be visually inspected for sagging and
alignment a minimum of once per year.
III. OPERATION
A. Record Keeping
Operation of the dry detention pond should include recording of the following:
• Annual Inspection Reports - A collection of written reports should be kept
on file with the Homeowner's Association. A visual inspection should be
conducted annually by a professional engineer or his/her representative. All
visual observations should be recorded.
• Maintenance - Recommendations for maintenance and/or repairs should be
recorded within the Annual Inspection Report.
• Other Operational Procedures - The Homeowner's Association should
maintain a complete and up-to-date set of plans (as-built drawings) and all
changes made to the dry detention pond over time should be recorded on the
as-builts by a Professional Engineer.
B. Sedimentation and Dredging
The accumulation of sediment within the dry detention pond may require
periodic removal to maintain sufficient capacity for storage of stormwater. The
frequency of this sediment removal can be reduced by ensuring that the site areas
around the upland areas are stabilized with a vegetative ground cover such that it
restrains erosion. The removed material should be hauled offsite to a suitable
site or mounded somewhere on site and stabilized with a ground cover sufficient
to restrain erosion.
Note: The legally responsible party should not be a homeowners association unless
more than 50% of the lots have been sold and a resident of the subdivision has
-- been named the president.

LEVEL SPREADER OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT
WEAVERS POND SUBDIVISION
The level spreader is defined as an elongated, level threshold, designed to diffuse
stormwater runoff.
Maintenance activities shall be performed as follows:
1. After construction and until vegetation has been established, level spreader(s)
shall be inspected after every rainfall. Thereafter, level spreader(s) shall be
inspected at least every month and more frequently during the fall season and
after heavy rainfall events:
a. Accumulated sediment, leaves, and trash shall be removed, and
repairs made if required.
b. Inspect level spreader(s) for evidence of scour, undercutting,
settlement of the structure, and concentrated flows downhill from the
level spreader(s).
c. A level elevation shall be maintained across the entire flow-spreading
structure at all times. Repair or replace the level spreader if it is
damaged.
d. Mow vegetative cover to a height of six (6) inches and prune plants if
they cover over half of the level spreader surface.
e. Repair eroded areas and replace/replant dead or damaged
vegetation.
1. Vegetation
Grass should be fertilized every October and April.
Re-seeding - Periodically re-seeding may be required to establish
grass on areas where seed did not take or has been destroyed.
Before seeding, fertilizer (12-12-12) should be applied at a
minimum rate of 12 to 15 pounds per 1,000 SF. The seed should
be evenly sewn at a rate of three pounds per 1,000 SF. The seed
should be covered with soil to the depth of approximately 1/4".
Immediately following the planting, the area should be mulched
with straw.
• Mowing - Grass mowing and removal of weed vegetation will be
necessary for the proper maintenance of the embankment. All
slopes should be mowed when the grass exceeds 8" in height.
Acceptable methods include the use of weed whips or power
brush cutters and mowers.
2. The contractor should avoid the placement of any material on and prevent
construction traffic across the structure. If the measure is damaged by
construction traffic, it shall be repaired immediately.
3. Inspect and repair the collection system (e.g., catch basins, pipes, swales,
riprap) four (4) times a year to maintain proper functioning.
I acknowledge and agree by my signature below that 1 am responsible for the
performance of the seven maintenance procedures listed above. I agree to notify DWQ
of any problems with the system or prior to any changes to the system or responsible
party. nn

Dear Ms. Karoly:
The purpose of this letter is to respond to your November 22, 2005 letter requesting further information.
The original questions/requests are copied below as they appear on the 11/22/05 letter and are then
followed by our response to each.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Please indicate all stormwater outfalls on the site plan.
An overall stormwater site plan map is attached for your review. This site plan map includes all
stormwater outfalls proposed within the previously applied for Weavers Pond Subdivision.
2. Please indicate the diffuse flow provision measures on the site plan.
A stormwater plan with an overall stormwater plan map that provides diffuse flow is attached for you
review. This stormwater plan includes dry detention basins followed by level spreaders, timber weir wall
level spreaders and pre-formed scour holes all designed to meet the diffuse flow requirements. In
addition, level spreader worksheets, dry detention worksheets and 2 Operations & Maintenance
Agreements for level spreaders and dry detention basins are included.
3. The road crossing labeled as "Road D-Crossing #3 " on the plans does not appear to be
necessary. Please eliminate the road crossings orprovide additional information as to why
it is necessary for this project.
As stated within the Pre-Construction Notification Application, this road crossing is needed for internal
connectivity, to insure safety due to the number of lots served and to accommodate future development to
the northern portion of the property. As such, the applicant is now proposing to cross this feature with a
bottomless culvert and completely spanning both banks to avoid all stream impacts. In the original
application, USACE Stream Quality Assessment Worksheets and DWQ Stream Identification Forms
were completed and submitted, along with photo's of this. unimportant, intermittent stream to emphasize

the low quality of this agricultural feature and its existing riparian buffer. Attached are new impact maps
for Road D-Crossing #3 and photo's of the existing riparian buffer.
We hope that this answers all of the DWQ's questions in order to finish the final review process for a
401 Water Quality Certification. If you have any further questions or any additional explanation is
needed, please don't hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
Aaron Cooper
Environmental Scientist
