The additional information received on February 11, 2019 indicated that the PTAA believes that the removal of Basin 134-A has already been approved by the issuance of Water Quality Certification#WQC004053 dated March 11, 2016. Upon a complete file review, the Division has determined that neither the presence of Basin 134-A nor clear indication for the pond removal was disclosed on any documents supplied to the Division during the application for the Taxiway Project which was approved under WQC004053. Therefore,the Division does not agree with the PTAA's statement as a lack of essential information does not indicate approval by the Division. Also within the additional information received on February 11, 2019 the PTAA indicates that alternatives to Basin 134-A should be deemed permitted per NCGS 143-214.7(c3) and (c4). As Basin B4-A is a requirement of Individual Water Quality Certification#003428 under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act, it is therefore not subject to NCGS 143-214.7 which sets out the Departments state-stormwater program. The Division approves the proposed removal of Basin 134-A and all associated stormwater conveyances,inlet and outlet structures, and grading and drainage patterns depicted on plan sheets dated January 2019 included in the Jacobs/CH2M report dated February 1, 2019, which are incorporated by reference and are enforceable by the Division. All other aspects of the stormwater management plan shall continue as previously approved by the Division.
