Re: Hollymead Town Center
Subject: Erosion and Sediment Control — Rt. 29
Dear Mr. Lilly,
In reply to your verbal request at our recent meetings over the last week, please allow this letter to
serve as notification as to the steps that we are taking to alleviate and correct the erosion control
failure that we had along Rt. 29 on January 14`h as a result of the 3"+ of rain. We will continue to
work with you to obtain resolution and correction that will correct these activities.
We have taken immediate measures to install two lines of diversion berms that will divert rainfall
to onsite structures ( #8 and #11) and ultimately to the permanent Storm Basin #3 at the south end
of the project. This has taken the majority of the water coming off the site that was previously
going to structure #9a at the time of the incident. A catch basin has been installed at structure
#9a. Stabilization geotextile fabric will be installed along the slope of Rt. 29 and should be
completed by Wednesday January 26th. This area will be seeded shortly after.
It has also been requested that we respond about the silt and colorization that has gone into the
Gateway Pond as a result of Hollymead Town Center development. As we have discussed, this
issue is a result of the activities of multiple landowners, and we will work with you to correct the
damages that we may have caused. I will be meeting with a pond remediation and flocculent
removal contractor over the next week and will advise you when that meeting is.
We will continue to work with you to correct any problems we may have caused, and install
preventive measures to ensure that this incident does not happen again. Please feel free to contact
me with any questions, or any other additional recommendations. Thanks
Sincerely,
Regency Centers
