Scott 9330 Bluffwind Chase Roswell, GA 30076 Subject Property: Scott Property Shoreline Stabilization Tahala Shores, Lake Glenville, Jackson County REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION Dear Mr. & Mrs. Scott: On October 3, 2006, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application in regards to shoreline stabilization on Duke Energy Property adjacent to your lot within Tahala Shores. 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 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. Application Item Number 13. states that you desire to install adry-stack boulder wall, 4 feet in height, for a length of 280 feet. The submitted attachments do not justify your desired impacts. The attached photographs do not indicate that such extensive stabilization is necessary along this shoreline. Additionally, there is no "scale" included in the photographs, making a determination of the necessity of a wall difficult. By scaling off the dock in the submitted photographs, it appears that stabilization only needs to occur to approximately 2 vertical feet of shoreline. Lastly, the presence of bedrock and natural shore rock, as shown in the submitted photographs, do not indicate the need for such extensive stabilization. It is the determination of this office that there is only a localized area which needs stabilization and that area may be stabilized with the use of some well placed rip- rap backed with toed in filter cloth. 401 Wetlands Certification Unit D ~ /nom ~g ~~ 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1650 ~V 1~1 1~~ 2321 Crabtree Boulevard, Suite 250, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604 Phone: 919-733-1786 /FAX 919-733-689311nternet: httGa/h2o.enr.state.nc.usrncwetlands N ~ U ~ ~_ 2006 No ~ Carolina ~tur~rlt~ An Equal OpportunitylAffirmative Action Employer - 50% Recycled/10% Post Consumer Paper DENR -1NiAT~R QUALITY' VVETIANDS AND STORMWATER BRANCH Scott Property Shoreline Stabilization Page 3 of 3 November 2, 2006 This letter only addresses the application review and does not authorize any impacts to wetlands, waters or protected buffers.
