RE: Pre-Construction Notification Application for Springhill Subdivision
Lillington, Harnett County, North Carolina
USACE AH)# 200600280
DWQ Project # 06-1052
Dear Mr. Smith and Ms. Karoly,
The proposed project is a residential subdivision located in Lillington, Harnett County,
North Carolina. We are reapplying for 401/404 permits to continue the development of the
project. Only a portion of the project, including several permitted impacts, was completed prior
to the previous 401/404 permit expiration.
Project Permitting History
Initial site concurrence was held on December 13, 2005 with Mr. Brad Shaver of the US
Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wilmington Regulatory Office. A second site meeting was
held on January 17, 2006 with Mr. Ronnie Smith of the same office. A Jurisdictional
Determination was issued by the USACE on February 7, 2006.
A PCN application was submitted to the NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ) and
USACE on June 26, 2006. On July 5, 2006 the DWQ issued a Request for More Information. A
revised PCN application was submitted to the DWQ on August 8, 2006. The DWQ had
additional comments, issued on August 15, 2006. A final response was submitted to the DWQ on
August 28, 2006. The DWQ issued an Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with
Additional Conditions on August 30, 2006. On August 22, 2006 the USACE issued a comment
letter. The letter was sent outside of the 30-day completeness review period and the 45-day PCN
review period. On August 24, 2006, Spaulding & Norris sent a letter to the USACE stating that
their response fell outside of the review period and that the project was going to move forward
according to the information initially submitted to the USACE. On August 28, 2006, the USACE
issued a general Permit (Nationwide 39) Verification for the project.
Project Changes
Changes were made to the project in response to comments made by the USACE
following the original PCN submittal that were not addressed, due to the comments being sent
outside of the required USACE response time. There were three major changes resulting from
this revision:
Phone: (919) 854-7990 ? Fax: (919) 854-7925 ? 972 Trinity Road ? Raleigh, North Carolina 27607
1) The impacts at the three remaining street crossings were based on actual design
calculations done at each crossing. Road profiles are not available at these locations, but
the culverts and headwalls were sized and located. Permanent wetland impacts extend
three feet from the face of retaining and headwalls to account for the concrete footer that
is part of the wall and temporary impacts extend seven feet beyond the footer to account
for any necessary excavation or fill that might occur during construction. Following
construction, these temporary impacts will be returned to their original grade and over
time the soil and vegetation will return to wetland conditions.
2) The utility installation and easement impacts at Impact Areas #4, #5, #6, and #10,
which were previously approved by the DWQ as temporary impacts have been changed
to permanent impacts per the USACE. The policy of the USACE is that maintained
utility easements through forested wetlands are considered permanent impacts, even
though functional wetland hydrology, soils, and herbaceous wetland vegetation can
reestablish in these areas following the disturbance resulting from utility installation.
This change has resulted in a 5,315 sqft (0.1221 acre) increase in permanent wetland
impacts over the previously approved impacts.
3) The previously permitted utility installation and easement impacts at Impact Area #9
have been removed. We were able to relocate the sanitary sewer line to go around the
wetland.
Stormwater
This project drains to WS-IV waters and is subject to Town of Lillington Watershed
Protection Ordinances pursuant to NCGS 143-214.5. The project is classified as Other
Residential (Cluster) and meets the Low Density Option criteria. An approved Watershed
Protection Permit was obtained from the Town and is attached to this application.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or comments regarding this
application.
Sincerely,
Shawn F. Guyer, P.E.

VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be
listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from
riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts,
permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an
accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial)
should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems.
Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate.
Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for
wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional
space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts:
The proposed impacts include stream and wetland impacts resulting from utility
installation and installation of residential streets.
Two wetland impacts have been completed (Impact Areas #1 & #2) and a portion of a
third wetland area (Impact Area 43) was impacted prior to the 401/404 permits expiring.
Impact Area #3 is a residential street impact, the only portion of the impact completed
prior to the expiration of the permits was the installation of waterline necessary for the
development of Phase 1.

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
Comprehensive measures were taken to avoid the wetlands located on the site and minimize
the impacts necessary to develop the site. These measures were applied as a whole to the
entire subdivision and on a smaller scale at individual impact areas. The layout of the
subdivision has changed several times in an effort to avoid the abundant wetlands on the site.
The changes included a complete realignment of streets and lots and redesign of the
preliminary storm drainage system to work around wetlands. Following these changes, the
majority of the wetlands on the site are located in Open Space areas and at the rear of lots.
Specifically, the changes reduced the wetland impacts at Impact Areas #3 and #5 by half and
completely removed a storm drainage easement through the wetlands near Impact Area #9.
The second round of plan changes resulted in the realignment of the street at impact Area #8
to cross the wetland at a narrow location. Similarly, the street at Impact Area #7 was
realigned to avoid the wetlands in that area. The sanitary sewer easement at Impact Area #6
was shifted outside of the wetlands where possible. Headwalls were included at each of the
street crossings to minimize the impact on the adjacent wetlands. A sanitary sewer line was
relocated and extensive grading was added at Impact Area #2 to reduce the impact to the
Page 11 of 16
7'
wetlands above the street crossing. Originally, the entire wetland area above the street was
impacted. Now, with headwalls and lot grading, the impact is minimal. Additionally, all of
the stormwater outlets in the subdivision were pulled back from wetlands so that outlet
dissipater pads would not encroach into the wetlands.
The third round of changes, following comment from DWQ, resulted in the realignment of
several streets and the removal of two residential street crossings through wetland areas. The
sanitary sewer line that was located in the street continues through the wetland, but the street
now ends in cul-de-sacs short of the wetlands on both sides.
A final round of changes was completed prior to the submittal of this application to address
comment made by the USACE following the original PCN submittal that were not addressed,
due to the comments being sent outside of the required USACE response time. There were
three major changes resulting from this revision:
1) The impacts at the three remaining street crossings were based on actual design
calculations done at each crossing. Road profiles are not available at these locations, but
the culverts and headwalls were sized and located. Permanent wetland impacts extend
three feet from the face of retaining and headwalls to account for the concrete footer that
is part of the wall and temporary impacts extend seven feet beyond the footer to account
for any necessary excavation or fill that might occur during construction. Following
construction, these temporary impacts will be returned to their original grade and over
time the soil and vegetation will return to wetland conditions.
2) The utility installation and easement impacts at Impact Areas #4, #5, #6, and #10,
which were previously approved by the DWQ as temporary impacts have been changed
to permanent impacts per the USACE. The policy of the USACE is that maintained
utility easements through forested wetlands are considered permanent impacts, even
though functional wetland hydrology, soils, and herbaceous wetland vegetation can
reestablish in these areas following the disturbance resulting from utility installation.
This change has resulted in a 5,315 sgft (0.1221 acre) increase in permanent wetland
impacts over the previously approved impacts.
3) The previously permitted utility installation and easement impacts at Impact Area #9
have been removed. We were able to relocate the sanitary sewer line to go around the
wetland.
These measures have reduced the permanent wetland impacts to less than 6% of the total
wetlands on the site.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, nutigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
Page 12 of 16
'tip
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's
Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.htmi.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
On September 20, 2007, $14,675.50 was paid to the NC Ecosystem Enhancement
Program's In-Leiu Fee Program as compensatory mitigation for 0.4713 acres of riparian
wetland impacts. The NC EEP charges mitigation fees in 0.25 acre increments, so the
compensatory mitigation fee was a based on 0.5 acres of riparian wetland impacts. The
revised riparian wetland impacts are 0.4932 acres. An increase of 0.0219 acres over the
originally permitted impacts, but still under the 0.5 acres for which compensatory
mitigation was provided. We do not believe that additional compensatory mitigation is
required.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at
(919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating
that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form. For
additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP
website at http://h2o. enr. state. nc.us/wr_p/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please
check the appropriate box on page three and provide the following information:

demonstrating total proposed impervious level.
There is no existing impervious acreage on the site. The proposed impervious acreage
includes streets, sidewalks, driveways, front walkways, houses, and patios. The overall
estimated impervious acreage for the project is 22.6 percent of the total site area.
Detailed calculations of the proposed site impervious acreage are attached to this
application. The total proposed impervious acreage is 33.1 acres or 22.6 percent of the
total 146.226 acres. The impervious acreage breaks down as follows: 14.1 acres of street,
2.0 acres of sidewalk, 0.1 acres of Highway 27 widening, and 16.9 acres of lot
impervious area. The lot impervious area represents the proposed impervious acreage of
the average building footprint in the subdivision with the driveway, patio, and front
walkway included.
This project drains to WS-IV waters and is subject to Town of Lillington Watershed
Protection Ordinances pursuant to NCGS 143-214.5. The project is classified as Other
Residential (Cluster) and meets the Low Density Option criteria. An approved
Watershed Protection Permit was obtained from the Town and is attached to this
application.

development which could impact nearby downstream water quality? Yes ? No
If yes, please submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with
the most recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality policy posted on our website at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. If no, please provide a short narrative description:
This project will not result in additional future development or future impacts to nearby
water quality. The project only provides access to adjacent parcels that already have
access to state roads.
XV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
