The site is currently developed with existing buildings parking lots, sidewalks, pedestrian plazas and some green space which provides access for the main entrance to UNC Children's Hospital. This project does not impact any existing wetlands and is not known to be within any Water Supply Watersheds. The latest version of the United States Department of Agriculture Soil Conservation Service Soil Survey of Orange County, North Carolina map indicates that the on -site soils are predominantly the Appling-Urban land complex which is classified as Hydrologic Soil Group B. Per FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map 3710978800K, dated November 17, 2017, the project is within Zone X and no 100-yr Floodplain is present but the 500-year flood elevation does impact the southern portion of the site. Proposed Site Improvements Proposed development on the site will include the demolition of existing parking lots and surface structures and all other site features within the new project footprint. Once demolition of the existing site has occurred, a proposed seven story surgical tower expansion to the existing hospital will be constructed. Accessible sidewalks, pedestrian plazas, loading docks, green space and on site retaining walls will be provided to allow for access in and around the site. All sewer and water infrastructure within the development will be re-routed out of the proposed footprint. Existing sewer and water traverse the site from west to east and will be captured and routed down East and West drives respectively. Utility improvements include relocation of existing 12" and 18" sewer lines, along with 8" and 12" water lines. Estimated usage for proposed project is 42,000GPD. 221S.WEST ST RALEIGH.NC T919.380,$750 q'1TF Isnn 77Ri rn.n ton.1., I Ln C b � '� N •C �� 8� 8 D 6 tS cn e Q yy r Q ;' G m V p. to i W N ..
