Subject: The Pearl
Low Density Detailed Stormwater Plan Submittal
Dear Ms.Munn:
Per your comments and requests for revisions dated May 11,2004,enclosed are the revised design plans
for the Pearl—Low-Density Stormwater Project. The following are the enclosed items:
1. Two copies of Design Sheets 13, 18 and 22.
Regarding comment 4 about swales 69C and 72A,these swales are not treatment swales. The swales just
transfer the stormwater flow from one paved area to another. The stormwater flow is then treated after it
leaves the second paved area. So swale 69C and 72A need not be 100' minimum.
Please incorporate the enclosed items into the previously submitted application package,and proceed
with the stormwater review and permitting process. If you have any questions regarding the foregoing or
enclosed information,please contact our office as soon as possible.

Subject: Pearl SW application
From: "Coastkeeper" <[e-mail]>

To: <[e-mail]>
CC: "Rick Shiver" <[e-mail]>, "Linda Lewis" <[e-mail]>
Dear Laurie,
Thank you for taking the time to discuss the Pearl stormwater permit
situation with me on Thursday. If you don't mind I have a few follow up
questions:
1) As I understand it, the October 2003 storm water permit was issued to the
property thought to be the Pearl North, but the property is actually the
Angels Trace Golf Course. Does this mean that the Pearl does not have an
approved storm water (SW) permit for its current proposed planed
development?
2) One of NCCF's primary concerns is regarding the stormwater issues arising
from the current and proposed use of the property. As described in our April
11 and June 5 (see below) comments (both in the project file) on the 2003 SW
application, a series of ditches (not 3:1 vegetated swales) , extensive
piping, interconnected ponds and impounded waters of the Calabash River and
direct outlets all work to direct stormwater with little or no treatment
into the SA waters of the Calabash River. According to my conversation with
Rick Shiver on Thursday, the agent for the Pearl said that all these
elements of a discrete SW system were in existence prior to the 1988 SW
certification for the property. Rick said that DWQ staff asked the applicant
to supply information supporting this contention. Rick said that DWQ staff
was satisfied with the applicants' supporting materials that they supplied.
These supporting materials were not in the file for the project that I
reviewed on Thursday. How may I gain access to them for review and could
they be faxed to me?
3) The Pearl property now being reviewed under the express permit program is
directly adjacent to the SA waters of the Calabash River. The entire
property is also within the drainage basin of the Calabash, and all of the
Pearl's development activities are within one-half mile of and draining to
SA waters or unnamed tributaries to SA waters. Will this fact result in a
change in the SW plan being submitted for a permit due to the prior SW plan
having extensive piping, wet detention and direct outlets to SA waters which
are not permit able under NCAC 15:02H.1005?
4) Several of the major existing ponds on the property proposed for wet
detention are impounded waters of the Calabash and tributaries of the
Calabash. There are ditches and piped outfalls discharging SW into these
impoundments, and these impoundments are all connected through inlets and
outfalls to other impoundments all draining to the Calabash River. Are these
impounded waters of the Calabash considered SA waters of the Calabash?
5) You mentioned that there has been correspondence between you and the
applicant regarding the recent submittal of the express SW permit
application. If possible I would like to review and copy this
correspondence, specifically your comments on the initial resubmital and the
applicants response. I am happy to make an appointment to review these
documents. I did not see them in the file which I reviewed on Thursday. If
it is possible to fax these to me at (910) 790-9013 I would greatly
appreciate it.
6) If the express SW permit has been issued, I would appreciate
notification.
Thank you very much for your consideration of these questions and requests.
Please let me know if you need any additional information or have any

Re: The Pearl Development and Golf Course Community - Brunswick County
Low Density Master Stormwater Plan Submittal - SW8881201
Dear Rick and Linda,
The North Carolina Coastal Federation (NCCF) continues to follow the North
Carolina Division of Water Quality Stormwater Management Permit Application
for The Pearl Development's Low Density Stormwater Project. The applicant is
proposing to expand the existing impervious surface area in the 806.13 acre
drainage area of the project from 16.24 acres to 195.89 acres. A 4,186 unit
Planned Unit Development is proposed creating an overall density of 4.75
du/ac. The overall proposed BUA for the Pearl is 195.89 acres for a percent
BUA/impervious surface area of 24.8 %. The development activities on the
site are located within one-half mile of and drain to SA waters or unnamed
tributaries of the SA waters of the Calabash River. Representatives of NCCF
continue to survey the site from the air, land and water.
The Pearl Development is within the drainage area of Calabash Creek.
Calabash Creek is classified as SA waters. In addition Calabash Creek has
been designated as a primary nursery area from Route 179 to approximately
1.2 miles upstream. Calabash Creek is closed to shellfishing due to high
fecal Coliform counts. The 1998 Phase I Stormwater Master Plan for SBSWA
lists seven golf courses within the project territory: The Pearl (East and
West) ; Marsh Harbor; Ocean Harbor; Oyster Bay; Sea Trail (Maples, Jones and
Byrd) ; Angles Trace and a portion of Sandpiper Bay.
Current conditions within the project area indicate that there exists a
persistent problem with high levels of Fecal Coliform being discharged into
the Calabash River. This is exacerbated through the transport of stormwater
in the existing ditches, pond outfalls and direct outfalls to the river on
the Pearl. The stormwater discharges are contributing to violations of the
SA fecal Coliform standard and the loss of protected "existing uses" in
violation of the state and federal Anti-degradation Policy. Water quality
protection measures used to protect the river have failed to maintain its
designated values, resulting in its closure to the harvest of shellfishing
2 of 4 5/3/2004 8:58 AM

Pearl SW application
and it's listing on the state's 303 (d) list as "impaired waters. "
Observations from the field (photos attached to NCCF 4/11/03 letter to DWQ) ,
permit reviews and anecdotal evidence from residents of the SEWSA territory
indicate that a discrete stormwater collection system exists on the East
Course of the Pearl. Observations from aerial photos and the field and
discussions with residents and golfers in the area indicate that a similar
situation exists on the West Course of the Pearl and to some extent on the
six other golf courses within the SBSWA territory. The Pearl's stormwater
system consists of an extensive system of ditches, interconnected ponds and
impoundments, and outfalls that collects and directs stormwater into the SA
waters of the Calabash River and its tributaries. This represents a discrete
stormwater collection system. According to NC Administrative Code Section:
15A NCAC 2H. 1000 Stormwater Management Section .1005 Stormwater
Requirements: Coastal Counties (2) development activities within one-half
mile of and draining to SA waters or unnamed tributaries to SA waters: , (a) ,
Low Density Option: (ii) : "stormwater runoff transported primarily by
vegetated conveyances; conveyances system shall not include a discrete
stormwater collection system as defined in Rule .1002 of this Section;"
Rule .1002, stormwater collection system defined in (18) : "Stormwater
Collection System" means any conduit, pipe, channel, curb or gutter for the
primary purpose of transporting (not treating) runoff. A stormwater
collection system does not include vegetated swales, swales stabilized with
armoring or alternative methods where natural topography or other physical
constraints prevents the use of vegetated swales (subject to case-b y-case
review) , curb outlet systems, or pipes used to carry drainage underneath
built-upon surfaces that are associated with development controlled by the
provisions of Rule .1003 (d) (1) in this Section.
As described in NCCF's 4/11/03 letter to DWQ, this system of ditches; which
are not vegetated swales with 3:1 slopes; transports stormwater into the
waters and tributaries of Calabash Creek. Some of these ditches drain into
impounded tributaries of Calabash Creek, including Lake Metcalf and Osprey.
Piping exists on the property that conveys stormwater into the Calabash and
its tributaries. This un-permitted and un-certified discrete stormwater
system exists to convey stormwater off the golf courses and impervious
surfaces of the Pearl and into the receiving SA waters of Calabash Creek. If
this system is allowed to remain in place it will be utilized to drain the
proposed 196 acres of impervious surface of the expanded Pearl Development.
This will by-pass any permitted non-structural low-density stormwater
system, and lead to the continued degradation of Calabash Creek.
In a 4/11/03 email from Darren England to Linda Lewis regarding the existing
ponds within the Pearl Development, Mr. England writes: "If their (ponds)
discharges could lead to the closure of shellfish waters or removal of uses,
the story might have different ending. " The attached aerial photo clearly
shows that many of the ponds on the Pearl are in fact inter-connected,
impounded sections of tributaries of the Calabash Creek which constitute SA
waters. These are not isolated golf course ponds or course features; these
are the waters of Calabash Creek and its tributaries. Currently they are
being utilized as stormwater retention ponds as stormwater is conveyed to
them through ditches, pipes and sheet flow. Direct discharges to SA waters
are prohibited. Existing pipes and ditches which direct stormwater to these
impounded waters of the Calabash and its tributaries constitute direct
discharges which are prohibited.
NCCF respectfully recommends the following actions be taken by DWQ:
§ This golf course community was originally certified in 1989 as a
low-density project with 30' wide vegetated buffers and using only grass
swales to collect and treat stormwater. A DWQ compliance inspection on
11/19/93 yielded a letter with required action items for the owner. The
letter from Linda Lewis to Mr. Odell Williamson required the submittal of a
current storm water plan revision, updated calculations, and recorded deed
restrictions. In the current stormwater file for the Pearl, these required
action items are not evident. Prior to any further action on the current
3 of 4 5/3/2004 8:58 AM

Pearl SW application
storm water permit application, these action items in the form of an updated
and accurate As Built Plan must be submitted.
§ As described in Linda Lewis' 4/14/03 letter to Mr. DeCarol
Williamson, the As Built Plan must show all of the following existing items
on the property: roads, golf ponds and impounded waters of the Calabash
River with outlets, inlets and dams; all existing development; all ditches;
and all existing piping and swales.
§ A thorough compliance inspection by DWQ is needed to determine the
extent and nature of the existing drainage system and outfalls. The site
must be brought into compliance with existing coastal stormwater
requirements and the new Phase II stormwater regulations. No agency action
should be taken on the current storm water application until the site is
brought into compliance.
§ In documents submitted to SBSWA and Brunswick County the applicant
states that they have "existing wet detention basins" . They also state that
the stormwater management plan of the site will include "new wet detention
basins, " especially in the high-density portions of the project and
"stormwater runoff routing. " No engineered stormwater collection system is
permissible under state regulations with the low-density option (as cited
previously) . If the applicant chooses to pursue a high density option
rather than a low density option, then coastal stormwater rules state that
only infiltration systems and vegetative filters are allowed within one-half
mile or draining to SA waters or unnamed tributaries of SA waters. Therefore
the existing and any proposed new or expanded wet detention basins would be
in violation of the existing regulations. It must be made clear to the
project applicant that wet detention ponds draining to or within one-half of
SA waters mile are in violation of State Stormwater Rules and will not be
permitted.
§ NC DWQ rules require protection of water quality standards, and
there exists discretionary authority to take necessary action to ensure that
SA water quality standards are not violated. Given that Calabash Creek is
impaired, it is recommended that DWQ fully evaluate the existing development
and proposed project's effects on the receiving waters to ensure that
additional stresses will not add to water quality problems already being
experienced in Calabash Creek. In addition, this project may require a NPDES
construction stormwater permit. This permit should not be issued if water
quality standards will not be protected.
We recommend that the DWQ complete a full site compliance inspection before
any action is taken on the permitting for this project. The applicants must
resubmit the master stormwater plan indicating all of the existing ponds,
ditches, and outfalls. In addition, to accurately evaluate any proposal a
complete hydrology, soils and wetland report must be submitted based on
existing site conditions.
Please feel free to contact me at (910) 790-3275 or via email at
[e-mail] if you have any questions of comments.

Laurie,
We definitely want to switch the project to Express. We will provide you with the $2000 application fee
by tomorrow afternoon.
We would like to schedule a meeting with you to review the project on site. We could meet at The Pearl
Clubhouse, if possible. This would give you the opportunity to see the site and examine any aspect of
the project. Specifically, we would like to address the existing piping. We would like to review the file
for the previously permitted project showing the golf course and drainage features. Can you have this
file available for us to review tomorrow afternoon when we deliver the additional application fee?
We did address item 4 in our response. Item 4 read as follows:
"4. In many areas, the opportunity to sheet flow across the parking lot and over the edge into the grass
(remove the curbing entirely) is not utilized. Both 100'swales and 100'grassed areas will meet the intent
of low density development with curb and gutter. The overall impression 1 get from the proposal is one
where too much drainage is directed into too few swales, dumping into ponds, with not enough sheet
flow through grass."
This is a very vague and ambiguious item to which to respond. It does not mention site specific
locations, regulations prohibiting curb and gutter and 100' swales, regulations requiring a certain number
of swales on a site, regulations prohibiting the size of the drainage area allowed to flow to a single
swale, etc. The project is designed with curb, curb cuts, and swales. If this is not allowed, let us know,
but if "100'swales.... meet the intent of low density development with curb and gutter" then we would
like to utilize that option on this project. Furhermore, it is our experience that sheet flow off of paved
surfaces of paved surfaces often leads to rill erosion at the transition from ashalt to grass. We prefer to
direct runoff to specific controlled outlets and design these outlets and swale to prevent erosion and
treat the runoff according to stormwater guidelines. It is difficult to satisfy an "impression." We need
facts and specific locations.
We would like to meet and discuss this matter further. We obviously can not revise the plans to satisfy
Item 4 prior to such a discussion. We will gladly resolve any legitimate items prior to the issuance of the
permit.
Let us know when we can meet.
Thanks,
D. Hollis

RE: The Pearl
I can switch this project to Express. I have the project review tentatively scheduled for March
31. You will need to drop off the $2000 fee by that date. Also, all of Linda's comments will
have to be addressed. We have looked over the resubmittal and Item 4 is still not addressed.
Also,the existing piping issue is not resolved. The originally permitted plan for The Pearl only
contains piping between the lakes. All other existing piping will need to be removed, and a
pipe removal plan will need to be submitted and approved as part of the permit drawings.
Let me know if you are interested in doing express, and by which date you will be able to
submit revised plans addressing Item 4. We can meet to discuss the piping issue if you would
like, but this issue will need to be resolved prior to the issuance of the permit.

Can I switch the low-density stormwater submittal for The Pearl to an Express Permit? We
made the original submittal back in Nov or Dec of 2003. The developer is willing to pay the
Express Permitting Fee to have the project switched. Let me know if this can be done and if
so, what you need me to do to expedite the process?

Dear Ms.Lewis:
The following indicates your itemized comments or request for additional information regarding
The Pearl Stormwater Project,and our response:
1. 'More detail grading(pot elevations)for the tennis court area. There are no finished grades for the courts"
The finished grades were indicated on the design plans for the tennis courts. However,we
have added additional spot elevations to the tennis courts indicating the water will runoff. Attached
are the design sheets to replace those previously submitted.
2. Please remember to reference the D1'Q stormwaterpermit number onyour cover letters."
We have indicated the DWQ stormwater permit number.
3. Please cut back on the lengths of pipes, such as SD-58 on sheet 10 and SD-13 on sheet 11, and any others.
Piping is allowed only under roads. Perbapsyou could have SD-58 stop after it gets out from under the parking lot
and join Swale 53C, or redirect the runoff to Pond#52 via a swales?For SD-13,please make this pipe a swale (it
can be piped under the road and cartpath only.)It appears that on sheets 11, 12, 13 14, in most areas, a fairly large
amount of runoff is forced to flow to a single curb break(s) (collection system) in the parking area, allowed to flow
through a fairy minimal swale, and rs then collected in a pipe and sent to a pond Meeting low density will require
that use of collection piping be limited to beneath roads,parking lots and cartpartb only. The pond outlet piping is OK
since it does not directly collect the sheet flow or ditch runoff from the site."
The piping was reduced in the areas indicated and any others similar, where possible.
Attached are the design sheets to replace those previously submitted. Please note though that all
swales are designed to treat the flow from these areas and meet the engineering design criteria.
4. `7n many areas, the opportunity to sheet flow across the parking lot and over the edge into the grass (remove the
curbing entirely) is not utilized Both 100' swales and 100'grassed areas will meet the intent of low density
development with curb and gutter. The overall impression I get from the proposal is one where too much drainage is
directed into too few swales, dumping into ponds, with not enough sheet flow through grass."

It is our experience that sheet flow off of paved surfaces often leads to rill erosion at the
transition from asphalt to grass. We prefer to direct the runoff to specific controlled outlets and
design these outlets and swales to prevent erosion. This project is thus designed with curb, curb
cuts,and 100'swales as allowed and required.
5. `Please delineate the drainage area for each shale, and provide shale calculations, or is ityour intent to provide this
information as each phase is submitted for appmval?"
The complete project swale delineation area map, along with the swale calculations, was
included as part of our original submittal. Attached is an additional copy of this material, as
submitted. The entire project is being submitted for approval because there are no phases in the
stormwater design.
6. `There is a lot of"existing"piping shown underfairways and between ponds, which the Division did not permit in
1988. Low-density ptvjects have always been limited in the amount and use of piping. I'm not sure bow to proceed
with this information,so I will be soliciting advice from Central Office staff I'm not sure how long it will take to get a
response. It may be that a meeting will be required to resolve the problem. I will let you and Mr. Williamson know
something as soon as I am able to get a response."
The existing piping within the golf course was designed and installed prior to the stormwater
rules becoming effective in 1988. Therefore, it should be exempt from this stormwater permitting
process,since we are not proposing any removal,replacement,or additional piping in these areas.
We expect that the additional information enclosed will suffice your review process and will allow
you to issue the stormwater permit without further delay. We appreciate your attention to this
matter.
Sincerely,
David A. Hollis,PE

Subject: The Pearl
David:
I am reviewing the stormwater application for The Pearl, which was
received on October 23 . Please submit the following items to continue
the review:
1. More detail grading (spot elevations) for the tennis court area.
There are no finished grades for the courts.
2. Please remember to reference the DWQ stormwater permit number on
your cover letters.
3 . Please cut back on the lengths of pipes, such as SD-58 on sheet 10
and SD-13 on sheet 11, and any others. Piping is allowed only under
roads. Perhaps you could have SD-58 stop after it gets out from under
the parking lot and join swale 53C, or redirect the runoff to Pond #52
via a swale? For SD-13, please make this pipe a swale (it can be piped
under the road and cartpath only. ) It appears that on sheets 11, 12, 13
14, in most areas, a fairly large amount of runoff is forced to flow to
a single curb break(s) (collection system) in the parking area, allowed
to flow thorough a fairly minimal swale, and is then collected in a pipe
and sent to a pond. Meeting low density will require that use of
collection piping be limited to beneath roads, parking lots and
cartparth only. The pond outlet piping is OK since it does not directly
collect the sheet flow or ditch runoff from the site.
4. In many areas, the opportunity to sheet flow across the parking lot
and over the edge into the grass (remove the curbing entirely) is not
utilized. Both 100' swales and 100' grassed areas will meet the intent
of low density development with curb and gutter. The overall impression
I get from the proposal is one where too much drainage is directed into
too few swales, dumping into ponds, with not enough sheet flow through
grass.
5. Please delineate the drainage area for each swale, and provide
swale calculations, or is it your intent to provide this information as
each phase is submitted for approval?.
6. There is a lot of "existing" piping shown under fairways and
between ponds, which the Division did not permit in 1988. Low density
projects have always been limited in the amount and use of piping. I'm
not sure how to proceed with this information, so I will be soliciting
advice from Central Office staff. I'm not sure how long it will take to
get a reponse. It may be that a meeting will be required to resolve the

problem. I will let you and Mr. Williamson know something as soon as I
am able to get a response.
Please provide the other requested information by February 12, 2004. Any
construction of built-upon area prior to receipt of the permit is a
violation of NCGS143-215.1, and is subject to enforcement action. If you
need additional time to submit the information, please email or fax me
your new expected submittal date.

Low Density Detailed Stormwater Plan Submittal
Dear Ms. Lewis:
We are pleased to submit the detailed stormwater design that we have prepared for the subject project. As
you are aware, we currently have a Master Stormwater Plan (SW8 881201) in for approval from your
department for this project. We understand that our submission of the detailed stormwater design will
not affect our previous Master Stormwater Plan submission.
Please be informed that the only reason that we prepared a detailed stormwater design for this project
was a result of a mandate by the South Brunswick Water and Sewer Authority (SBWSA). Although
SBWSA has claimed that their rules, regulations and requirements are consistent with the State's rules
and regulations, they would not accept nor approve a Master Stormwater Plan for this project. In order to
obtain local stormwater approval from SBWSA, our Client had no other choice but to submit a detailed
design to them for review and approval. The initial detailed stormwater plan submittal was made by our
firm to SBWSA for this project on March 21, 2003. Subsequent re-submittals,which included additional
requested information, were made by our firm to SBWSA on July 21, 2003, August 28, 2003 and, most
recently, on September 29,2003.
The enclosed plans and calculations are identical to that which we have provided to SBWSA. The
following documents are included within this submittal package:
1. Two(2) sets of the design plans; Sheets 1 through 22,
2. Two(2) sets of the supporting calculations,
3. The executed Stormwater Management Permit Application Form,
4. The executed Curb Outlet System Supplement with Swale Design Information Attachment,
5. The completed Low Density Supplement Form, and,
6. A check in the amount of$420 to cover the required application fee.

Subject: The Pearl- Stormwater information01)
Dear Linda:
In addition to the previously submitted records from the Brunswick County tax office,
we have obtained information to help substantiate our claim that the existing golf course,
clubhouse, maintenance building, and roads were built prior to the enactment of the NC Coastal
Stormwater Regulations. Attached are copies of the following:
1. An April 1988 article from Golf Digest stating that the two courses at the Pearl opened
the previous year,
2. A Brunswick County septic system Certificate of Completion showing that the
Clubhouse septic system was installed prior to August 24, 1987,
3. A printout from the NC Alcoholic Beverage Control board showing the issuance date of
the liquor license for the Pearl Golf Links (on site inspections of the premises are required before
these permits are issued).
This information should certainly alleviate any doubts as to whether or not this facility
existed prior to the adoption of the stormwater rules. Since the development was in place prior
to the rules, it is our understanding that impervious areas and stormwater piping that were part of
this development are not subject to the current rules. Should you require any additional
information, please let me know.
Sincerely,
David B. Bowman, P.E.

LETTER OF APPROVAL
Mr. Odell Williamson,
#2 Causeway Drive
Ocean Isle Beach, NC 28469
Project Name: Angel's Trace
Project No.: 881201BR
Location: NC Highway 179 - Brunswick County
Submitted by: Jan K. Dale, RLS
Date Received: February 24, 1995
Revised Submittal
Dear Mr. Williamson:
This office has reviewed the subject sedimentation and erosion control Plan. We find the plan to be
acceptable and hereby issue this letter of approval with comments as attached.
Please be advised that Title 15A,of the North Carolina Administrative Code,4B.0017(a)requires that a copy
of the approved plan be on file atthe job site. Also,you should consider this letter to give the Notice required by
GS 113A-61(d)approved plan. The last page(s)which lists approval comments should be copied and attached to
the sedimentation and erosion control plan that is maintained on site.
North Carolina's Sedimentation Pollution Control Program is performance oriented,requiring protection of
the natural resources and adjoining properties. If,following the corn mencement of this project,it is determined that
the erosion and sedimentation control plan is inadequate to meetthe requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution
Control Act of 1973(North Carolina General Statute 113A-51 thru 66),this office may require revisions to the plan
and its implementation to insure compliance with the Act.
Recognizing the desirability of early coordination of sedimentation control,we believe that it would be
beneficial if a pre-construction conference could be arranged to discuss the approved plan for this project. Please
contactthis office and let us know the date of construction start-up and the date of pre-construction conference so
that we may attend.
We look forward to working with you on this project. If you have any questions,please contact our office.
Sincerely,
Daniel Sams, P.E.

APPROVAL COMMENTS AND CONDITIONS
PROJECT NAME: Angel's Trace
PROJECT NUMBER: 881201 BR
LOCATION: NC Highway 179- Brunswick County
SUBMITTED BY: Jan K. Dale, RLS
DATE RECEIVED: February 24, 1995
1. The developer is responsible for the control of sediment on-site. If the approved erosion measures prove
insufficient,the developer must take those additional steps necessary to stop erosion from leaving this site.
2. Any and all existing ditches on this project site are assumed to be left undisturbed by the proposed
development unless otherwise noted. The removal of vegetation within any existing ditch or channel is
prohibited unless the ditch or channel is to be regraded with side slopes of 2 horizontal to 1 vertical or less
steep. Bank slopes may be mowed,but stripping of vegetation is considered new earth work and is subject
to the same erosion control requirements as new ditches.
3. The developer is responsible for obtaining any and all permits and approvals necessary for the development
of this project prior to the commencement of this land disturbing activity. This could include the Division
of Coastal Management under CAMA requirements,the Division of Environmental Management under
stormwater regulations,the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers under Article 404 jurisdiction,local County or
Town Agencies under their local ordinances, or others that may be required. This approval cannot
supersede any other permit or approval. However,in the case of a Cease and Desist Order from the
Corps of Engineers,that Order would only apply to wetland areas. All highland would still have to be in
compliance with the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
4. If any area on site falls under the jurisdiction of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act,the developer is
responsible to the orders of the U.S.Army Corps of Engineers. Any erosion control measures that fall within
jurisdictional wetland area must be relocated to the transition point between the wetlands and the highlands
to assure that the migration of sediment will not occur. If that relocation presents a problem or contradicts
any requirements of the Corps of Engineers,it is the responsibility of the developer to inform the Land
Quality Section Regional Office so that an adequate contingency plan can be made to assure sufficient
erosion control on site. Failure to do so will be considered a violation of this approval.
5. Any borrow material brought onto this site must be from a legally operated mine or other approved source.
A single use borrow site or an area to waste material is only permissible if it is operated under total control
of the Financially Responsible person or firm who is developing this site and a plan modification is submitted
to this office that includes the area in question.
6. This permit allows for a land disturbance,as called for on the application plan,notto exceed the area in the
plan submitted February 24, 1995. Exceeding that acreage will be a violation of this permit and would
require a revised plan and additional application fee. Any addition in impervious surface,over that already
noted on the approved plan,would also require a revised plan to verify the appropriateness of the erosion
control measures and stormwater retention measures.
7. The proposed basins are sized based on the general information found in the"Erosion and Sediment Control
Planning and Design Manual."Ditch velocities both above the basins and below the proposed culvert system
have been omitted and are critical to ascertain the permanent stabilization of the drainage systems. Please
provide those ditch velocities,and where the 10 year-storm velocities exceed bare earth maximums,please
provide a ditch liner design to assure the achievement of vegetative stabilization.
