Subject- NPDES Draft Permit Stomwater Permit
Additional Information Request
Dear Mr. Cook:
After a review of your permit application materials, I found that there is insufficient content
to continue with the review and drafting of your permit. The application form (SWU-264-
103102) submitted for NPDES stormwater permit coverage for Regulated Public Entities (RPE)
pursuant to Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code 2H .0126 did not include a complete
application package. Please submit three copies of the narrative documentation required in
Section X of this form. The application form, completed in accordance with Instructions for
completing NPDES Small MS4 Stormwater Permit Application (SWU-270) and the
accompanying narrative documentation, completed in accordance with Instructions far
Preparing the Comprehensive Stormwater Management Program Report (SWU-268) are both
required for the application package to be considered a complete application submittal.
Enclosed for your review is a preliminary draft Phase II NPDES Stormwater Permit
similar to the draft that will be prepared for Long View. Your draft permit will ultimately reflect
appropriate schedules, BMPs, and measurable goals proposed by Long View. We believe that
this draft permit will provides flexibility, while at the same time safeguarding and protecting our
natural environment for future generations of North Carolinians.
Copies of draft permits will be available at-
http://h2o.eni-.st,ite.ne.us/su/phasc2 draft permits.htm
Please provide the additional information requested by Friday, May 20, 2005. If you have
any questions don't hesitate to contact me at [phone], ext. 545.
Sincerely,

-should be provided for any seasonal population estimates, as well as a description of the
seasonal calendar. Seasonal population is an indicator of the stress placed on the MS4
during peak demands.
1.2 Growth Rate: 'rhe population growth rate for the service area should he calculated based
on the simple analysis of the relative change beiwcen the US Census population in 1990
and 2000 stated as a percent change, annualized by dividing the percent change by 10. If
your jurisdiction incorporated after 1990, use the based population established at the time
of incorporation in place of the 1990 Census number to establish the change in population
as a percent change as measured in 2000. More recent population data can be used to
document the growth rate, if available.
1.3 Jurisdictional and MS4 Service Areas: List the jurisdictional and MS4 service area in
square miles.
1.4 MS4 Conveyance System: Briefly describe the composition of the existing MS4 system
(pipes, ditches, sheet flow, etc.) and state of maintenance of the system. This narrative
should give the reorder a gc� ,neral feel for flow your stormwater is transported to receiving
streams and what kind of maintenance activities are currently performed.
1.5 Land Use Composition Estimates: Estimate the percentage of the MS4 service area that is
under residential, commercial, industrial, and open space land use.
1.6 Esibnate Methodology: Briefly explain the methodology used to determine the bard use
esliniates.
1.7 TMDL Identification: The lsnvironinental Protection Ageticy or the NCDh-NR has the
authority to establish and issue a Total Maximurn Daily Load allocation on a body of
tiv(iter or receiving stream. Acknowledge if your MS4 discharges into such a controlled
bodv of water or recervrng stream.
