Dear Mr. MacEldowney:
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR), received a Stormwater
Management Permit Application for the subject project on March 7, 2019. A review of that
information has determined that the application is not complete. The following information is
needed to continue the stormwater review:
1. The maximum project density for low density projects in Outstanding Water Resource
watersheds is 12% (15A NCAC 02H .1021). For a project with existing built upon area,
the project density may be calculated as the difference of total BUA minus the existing
BUA divided by the difference of total project area minus existing built upon area (15A
NCAC 02H .1003).
2. To qualify for low density, the project must use overland flow or vegetated conveyances.
A minimal amount of piping is allowed only for driveways or culverts under a road when
it cannot be avoided (15A NCAC 02H .1021). The proposed plans include too much
piping to qualify for low density.
3. A Supplement EZ form is required for all projects, including low density developments.
The form can be found here: hM2s:Hdeq.nc.gov/sw-bmp-manual. There is an option on the
form for low density or high density.
4. The Applicant's Certification section of the application must be signed and notarized for
all applications. The Property Owner Authorization was signed instead. This section is
only for projects where the applicant is not the property owner. Please update the
application with a signed Applicant's Certification.
