REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Jackson:
On April 11, 2008, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated April 9, 2008,
to fill or otherwise impact 0.48 acres of 404/wetland to construct a residential development at the site. On
May 12, 2008, and September 30, 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.
Additional Information Requested:
1. The DWQ is concerned about the significant difference in the average square footage of the
homes that are already built in Phase I (1987 square feet) versus the estimated average square
footage of the future homes (1298 square feet). Please explain the reason for this difference,
which is over 50 percent.
2. In light of comment number one, the DWQ considers the following drainage areas to be greater
than 24 percent impervious: 1, 4, 5 and 7. For these drainage areas, please provide properly
designed BMPs that remove a minimum of 85 percent TSS from the stormwater generated by the
high density drainage areas. For any BMPs that are proposed, please provide a completed BMP
Supplement Form, with all the required items. The BMP Supplement Forms are available at the
following web site: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/bmp forms.htm.
3. In drainage areas 6 and 7, please remove the permanent diversion swales that are proposed behind
lots 85-93 and lots 94-101. These swales are likely to compromise the natural hydrology of the
adjacent wetland area.
