I have visited this site and reviewed the plans. County Fire approves this plan with two notations:
1. Remove the fire hydrant in the cul-de-sac at lot #31/32 from the plan.
2. Move the fire hydrant in the cul-de-sac from lot #19 and place at lot #24
NHC Engineering, Galen Jamison 910-798-7072
1. A land disturbing and stormwater permit issued by the County will be required. Please submit for
permits as the design is completed.
2. There appears to be offsite stormwater drainage coming from the north and west. If this drainage
will be routed through the site, a public drainage easement sized in accordance with NHC
Stormwater Manual will be required. The 15’ minimum access width should be located on
property. Construction of offsite drainage conveyance measures that will be maintained by the
county will need to be observed during construction by Stormwater Services and a turnover
meeting scheduled once the system is ready to be conveyed to the county.
3. Assume the crossing of the floodway will be a culvert, if so, please include NCDOT detail 300.01
for rigid pipe bedding for the bypass culvert to be maintained by NHC Stormwater Services and
label in plan view and show in profile.
4. What measures for roof drainage is proposed? Please provide details of roof drainage when

1. No comments provided.
Environmental Health, Dustin Fenske 910-798-6732
Site proposes both public water and sewer. If public water and sewer cannot be attained then individual
septic and well permits for each lot must be applied for through the COAST portal. 2621 Oakley Rd. which
is located on the same property as 2617 Oakley Rd. has a well and septic system that will not meet
setbacks to the proposed storm water basin. This basin must maintain 50 feet from the septic system and
well for this home. The basin must be revised to maintain 50 feet from these features or the home must
be connected to public water and sewer with the old well and septic system properly abandoned
according to code. All other adjoining properties meet setbacks to all proposed infrastructure.
WMPO, Scott James 910-473-5130
1. The proposed Castle Hayne Habitat for Humanity project is located at 3101 Castle Hayne Road (NC 133).
