We will use headwalls for all 3 crossings to limit the length of stream disturbance. <br />Approximately 0.1 acre (4000sf) of wetlands at the perennial crossing are being <br />affected / disturbed. Retaining walls will be used where the road crosses the <br />wetlands to reduce the impact. There is approximately 13 acres of stream and <br />wetland buffer. That amounts to 25% of the project area. Stormwater will be <br />managed with a stormwater facility on each side of the perennial stream and <br />outside of the stream buffer. Each lot will have individual wells and septic <br />systems. Orange County is reviewing the public road concurrently with the <br />Chatham County review of the subdivision. <br />If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to call or email <br />me. Thank you for your help with this application. <br />Sincerely, <br />Warren D. Mitchell, PE <br />Page 2 <br />W <br />
