September 9, 2015 <br />Page 2 <br />GIS contours are now provided outside of the approximately 100’ wide <br />surveyed corridor along the proposed roadway. The GIS elevations do <br />not precisely match the as-surveyed elevations but they are within an <br />acceptable tolerance and the slope trends are generally consistent. <br /> <br />2. Illustrate potential wetlands and note regarding USAEC 404 Permitting <br />requirements. <br />The northern wetlands and the associated buffer are now shown as they <br />were indicated by S&EC using GIS location data. The southern <br />wetlands is currently under re-review by S&EC and we anticipate <br />reclassification shortly. Consequently, we currently show no buffer <br />around the indicated area. If, after review, any work affecting any <br />wetlands is indicated, the proper 404 permits will be acquired prior to <br />construction. <br /> <br />3. Illustrate "Edges of pavement" along Erwin and Whitfield roads; <br />Edges of pavement have now been added to Erwin and Whitfield roads <br />past the boundaries of the Henderson Woods property. The EOP is <br />based on GIS data and surveyed rights-of-way for the roads. <br /> <br />4. Illustrate existing trees stands/tree lines with sample vegetation and <br />specimen trees with types heights, Caliper/DBH (e.g. 60% evergreen trees <br />primarily loblolly pines range in height from 30-60' in height and 10"-32" <br />caliper inches in size as measured from Diameter Breast Height; and 40% <br />understory and canopy hardwoods...."); <br />Existing tree lines have been added to the drawings based upon <br />Orange County GIS orthophotos of the site. The site consists of a mix <br />of both mature evergreen and deciduous trees. However, as a formal <br />tree survey is not required by the UDO, tree caliper, height and <br />species mix have not been indicated on the plans as they have not <br />been determined. <br /> <br />5. Illustrate septic systems and additional wells on the property with notes <br />regarding removal; <br />A note regarding proper abandonment of the existing well and septic <br />field has been added. <br /> <br />6. Note sources for data; and <br />A note listing the sources for the various data presented on the plans <br />has been added to the lower left corner of the page. <br /> <br /> <br /> 28
