SUBJECT: COMPLIANCE EVALUATION INSPECTION
Port.er's Neck Shopping Center

Dear Mr. Scarafoni:

On August 28, 1995 you were issued General Water Quality Certificatioo No. 2671 authorizing
1.5 acres of wetland impacts to develop Porter's Neck Shopping Center. This certificatioo contained
specific conditioos requiring an approved storm water management plan and that deed restrictions be placed
on remaining wetlands to prevent future fill.

On April 24, 1997 as part of an ongoing compliance and enforcement program for 401 waui'
Quality Certifications DWQ conducted a compliance evaluatioo inspection at the aforementioned facility.
The results of that inspection noted that as per your stormwater management plan stormwater flow was
being piped into the nearby cypress pond. Work on the constructed stormwater pond had not yet begun.

On October 7,1997 Mr. Eric Reek and Mr. Pete Colwell from the Division's Central Office
conducted another compliance evaluation inspection. The results of this inspection revealed that the
constructed storm water pond had been completed.

The Division of Water Quality appreciates your compliance with the conditions of your 401 Water
Quality Certification. In the spirit of continued good communication please forward a copy of the as built
stormwater plans for this facility and any information regarding plans for future development on site. It was
evident from the inspection that there are large quantities of wetlands on other portioos of this tract and it
appeared that access roads had been installed. Please Ii aware that as required by your 401 Warer Quality
Certification you should have placed deed restrictions on the remainder of the wetlands 00 this site.

Again, the Divisioo of Water Quality appreciates you complying with the conditions of your 401
Water Quality Certification. If you have any questions regarding this matter please feel free to call at (919)
733-1786.

Sincerely,

Re: Compliance Inspection of Porters Neck Shopping Center

Dear Mr. Scararoni:

On August 2X, 199) you were issued General Water Quality Certification No. 2671 authorizing I,)
acres of wetland impacts needed to develop the Porters Neck Shopping Center ofl US 17 North, New
Hanover County. This certilication contained the specific conditions or an approved stormwater

As part of an ongoing compliance monitoring and enforcement program for 40 I Water Quality

inspection of the project site on April 24, 1997. We found that the construction of the shopping center was
well under way and the wetland areas had heen lilled. According to the storm water management plan part
of the runoff was to he diverted into an existing small cypress pond and the rest into a constructed
stormwater pond just northwest of the shopping center. The pipes to the cypress pond appeared to he in
place hut we did not tind the constructed pond during our short site inspection. Another site visit will he
made after construction of the shopping center is complete to verify full compliance with the 40 I Water
Quality Certitication.

Your cooperation in adhering to the conditions of your 40 I Water Quality Certilication is
appreciated. Should you have any questions concerning this maller please reel free to contact me at (919)

FROM:

DATE

September 11, 1995

Subject:

Nationwide 401 Permit Application for Scarafoni Associates NC, Inc., Live Oak
Development, Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina. (project #
95861)

Staff biologists with the Wildlife Resources Commission have reviewed the project and
associated impacts on wildlife and fishery resources in the area. An onsite investigation was
conducted on September 6, 1995. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of
the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.) and
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (as amended) and North Carolina General Statutes (G.S.
113-131 et seq.).

The applicant is proposing to fill small pockets of wetlands to allow future development of
the property. The property consists of 6 areas of wetlands totaling 3.192 acres of which 1.554
acres is proposed to be filled. Vegetation at the site includes titi, fetterbush, sweet bay, water oak
and gallberry. A small pond (0.033 acres) is included in the area to be filled. These wetlands
provide valuable wildlife habitat and serve as travel corridors for numerous species of amphibians,
reptiles, birds, and mammals.

As proposed, areas 1-4 are to be filled. These areas are isolated with areas 1 and 4
fronted by CP&L utility lines and HWY 17. We recommend that certification be conditioned to
require that filling in these 4 areas be limited to wetlands north of the utility lines. More
importantly, we recommend that wetland areas 5 and 6 be restricted from future development
impacts.

Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project. If you have any concerns
about our comments, please contact Brad E. Hammers at (919)-939-1167.
