On July 31, 2008, and August 1, 2008, 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 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. This Request For More Information replaces the Request For More Information dated September 2, 2008. Additional Information Requested: 1. The slope in the filter strip of the proposed level spreader number 2 exceeds the allowable eight percent. Please either relocate this level spreaders to a location where the filter strip slope is appropriate for a level spreader or provide a BM that removes a minimum of 85 percent TSS and 30 percent TN from the stormwater generated by drainage area 2. For the proposed BMP, please provide a completed BMP Supplement Form, with all the required items. The BMP Supplement Forms are available at: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/suibmp forms.htm.
