REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Ms. Simpson:
DWQ Project # 09-0136
Wake County
On February 11, 2009, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated February
11, 2009 to impact 5,051 square feet (ft) of Zone 1 protected riparian buffers and 6638 square feet (ft) of
Zone 2 protected riparian buffers to construct the proposed greenway trail. The DWQ has determined
that your application was 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. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
This Office believes that the proposed 10' wide greenway trail could be reduced to 8 feet in width
to minimize the impacts to the protected riparian buffers. Please submit revised plans and a
revised buffer impact table in Section C.6 of the Preconstruction Notification (PCN) Form.
2. Diffuse Flow
Per the requirements of the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rule, you must show that this site meets
diffuse flow requirements with a level spreader or other BMP per Chapter 8 of the BMP Manual
(see: http://h20.enr.state.nc.us/su/bmp forms.htm). Please be sure to include all applicable
worksheets and O&M agreements for each diffuse flow device.
