Re: Chatham - ± 52 Acres. Charlotte Mec nb rg County, North Carolina - Nationwide Permit #26
and #12
Dear Sirs:
On behalf of my client, Mr. Ken Foster of Ridgeline Development Corporation, I am requesting confirmation
of eligibility to impact +0.051 acres of wetlands and surface water channels utilizing NWP #26.
Approximately 130 if of intermittent tributary is located within the area. The defined channel ends near the
floodplain and forms a small wetland area. Adjacent to this area a Nationwide Permit #12 will be required to
cross the Stony Creek Branch with a proposed sewerline. Approximately 0.05 acres will be temporarily
disturbed. The developer has made significant changes to the plans to avoid and minimize impacts to
wetlands and surface waters prior to submitting this application. Preserved are a very high quality streams
and forested wetlands of very high value and function. The extents of wetlands and streams were field
verified by Steve Lund of the USACE on October 27, 1997. As depicted on the plan and in this report the
developer has taken great care in avoiding the perennial stream.
BACKGROUND
The proposed residential development is on approximately 52 acres in north Mecklenburg County, North
Carolina. This area of Mecklenburg County is experiencing rapid economic and population growth. Current
land use in the vicinity include new single family subdivisions, proposed multi-family projects, and an
existing public golf course. The wetlands and surface waters are within approximately 1.14 acres within the
project area. Except for .051 acres of impacts and a sewerline crossing the remaining wetlands will be
preserved. All fill material will be unpolluted and appropriate measures to control sedimentation and erosion
will be employed. Wetlands and streams which will not be disturbed will be protected during construction
from damage due to construction traffic, drainage and other forms of disturbance. The streams and wetlands
will be protected by restrictive covenants and the hydrology to the remaining wetlands and streams will be
maintained and enhanced where feasible by utilizing the storm drainage system.

Methodoloay
Preliminary identification and delineation of the Jurisdictional Waters on the site were determined according
to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual, Technical Report Y-87-1, 1987, with Appendices.
Preliminary data gathering included review and interpretation of topographic maps; USDA Soil
Conservation Survey; aerial photographs, and preliminary site visits to selected areas. Then the Routine On-
Site Determination Method was utilized to determine the upper boundary of the wetlands. In order to make
a positive wetland determination, indicators of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soil, and wetland
hydrology were be identified as described in the manual. The wetland boundary was marked in the field by
Leonard S. Rindner, PWS, Environmental Planning Consultant and was reviewed and verified by the
USACE (Steve Lund) on October 27, 1997. The surveyed map has been used for planning and for
permitting purposes.
General Wetland ld ifi lion and Description
The limited wetlands on this site can be describe as Palustrine Forested Broad - Leaved and Scrub/Shrub
Temporarily Flooded and Seasonally Flooded (PFOIA,PFOIC,PSSIA,PSSIC). They have formed in
perched water table conditions, and in flat to nearly level and sloping areas over a clayey soil layer often
typical of Iredell, Enon, Helena soils, and Monacan soils (IrB,EnD,HeB,and Mo).
Y-twation
A majority of the site is forested state from mature to secondary succession. Small areas on the site are in
late old field succession. The wetland areas are generally forested. Species which occur in these areas
include Green Ash, Sweetgum, Red Maple, Ironwood, Willow Oak and other typical species that tolerate
Chatham, Page 3, November 21, 1997

Request for NWP 26, 12
these wet and shallow root conditions. Common understory trees and shrubs include silky dogwood, and
alder. Woody vines include poison ivy, and greenbriar. The herbaceous layer is variable based on exposure
to light. Species include sedge and rush species, jewelweed, microstegium and others.
The non-wetland forested areas of the site are dominated by mixed forest. Hardwoods include sweetgum,
red maple, beech, red oak, white oak, tulip poplar, hickory, and other common species. The subcanopy
contains saplings and seedlings of canopy species. Other subcanopy species include black cherry, American
holly, dogwood, elm, and privet. Woody vines common in the understory include poison ivy, muscadine
grape, honeysuckle, and other herbaceous and woody species.
Hydrophytic Vegetation has been identified according to the National Lister Plant 2cdes That O=r in
Wetlands: Southeast (R 'on )US Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service.
Hydric Soils
The majority of the site is made up of gently to moderately sloping ridges and flat to level drainageways. The
primary soils according to Natural Resource Conservation Service include Enon sandy clay loam (EnD),
Iredell sandy clay loam (IrB), Monacan soils (Mo). These are typically well drained soils. However, Iredell
soils, and Monacan soils may have hydric inclusions at the head of intermittent tributaries according to the
Natural Resource Conservation Service, Technical Guide-Section H-A-2, June 1991.
Hydrology
The wetlands, and streams are headwaters of Stony Creek, a tributary of Mallard Creek. Mallard Creek
which are part of the Catawba River Basin and currently classified a Class C - aquatic life propagation and
survival, fishing, wildlife, secondary recreation, and agriculture. Wetland hydrology is provided by a surface
runoff, overbank flooding and ponding, seeps, and springs over a clayey subsoil.
WETLANDS PERMITTING AND MITIGATION
The subdivision layout avoids and minimizes impacts to the perennial tributary and wetlands. The stream
exhibited characteristics such as persistent pools and/or saturated channel bottom; evidence of macro-
invertebrates; reduced soils; algae; hydrophytic vegetation in or adjacent to the channel; evidence of wildlife
utilizing the stream; and a gravelly substrate. The wetland areas on this site will be found to have high value
regarding water storage, pollution removal, bank stabilization, aquatic life resources utilizing Guidance for
Rating the Values of Wetlands in North Carolina - Fourth Version.
Except for temporary construction and development impacts, we believe that the proposed project will not
cause significant impacts to the ecological functions or values of Jurisdictional Waters of the U. S.
Avoidance Minimization, and Mitigation
The following avoidance and minimization efforts and measures will also be taken:
Best Management Practices will also be employed to minimize impacts to Jurisdictional Waters. These will
include:
a) Siltation Barriers; Sediment Traps and Diversion Ditches
b) Barricades to define construction limits to sensitive sites and to protect trees
Chatham, Page 4, November 21, 1997
Mr. Steve Chapin - USACE, Mr. John R. Domey - NCDWQ
Request for NWP 26, 12
C) Preconstruction meetings where required
d) Vehicular access will be restricted to specific areas to avoid disturbance to adjacent wetlands and
natural areas to be preserved,
e) Methods to prevent short term impacts will be inspected regularly and maintained during
construction of the project.
f) Wetlands to be preserved will be clearly marked prior to construction to prevent accidental damage
to wetlands. The contractors will be held responsible for unauthorized wetland damage not
permitted according to plans and specifications. Preconstruction meetings shall be held if necessary
with representatives of the USACE and the NCDWQ.
g) Short tern construction impacts, primarily stream sedimentation will affect aquatic habitat,
however this will be minimized to the extent practicable to promote rapid recovery.
h) Project construction will strictly adhere to an approved Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan.
Best Management Practices will include utilizing siltation trapping ponds and other erosion control
structures where appropriate. Impacts from hazardous materials and other toxins to fish and
aquatic life such as fuels will be avoided by not permitting staging areas to be located near surface
waters.
i) As required by the 401 Water Quality Certification conditions, measures will be taken to prevent
"live" or fresh concrete from coming into contact with waters until the concrete has hardened.
PROPOSED COMPENSA TOR Y MITIGA TION
A mitigation plan will be developed for a "no net loss" of wetland habitat, value, and function to the extent
feasible on this site. The &QAI- of this plan is to preserve, protect, the extents of the existing wetlands and
streams. A field located natural buffer consisting of existing woodland along streams and wetlands will be
maintained during construction. The buffer area will be protected by silt fence where necessary. Clearing
required for utilities shall be the minimum necessary. A natural/native grass mixture shall be utilized in lieu of
turf grasses such as fescue. Employment of strict erosion and sediment control procedures will be specified
to avoid impacts to water quality. Existing wetlands and surface waters and buffer areas will be protected
from erosion and sedimentation during construction. The preserved streams and wetlands will be protected
from future impacts by the applicant or by a group designated by the applicant for this purpose.
Development of these areas will be deed restricted in accordance with restrictive covenants which will be
developed for approval by the USACE and/or NCDWQ.
THREATENED AN ENDANGERED SPECIES
Federally listed plant and animal species with endangered or threatened status are protected under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973. The US Fish and Wildlife Service has identified two endangered species -
Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), and the Carolina heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata).
Schweinitz's sunflower thrives in full sun characteristic of successional fields, margins, and forested
openings. Since the site is primarily forested with small areas in late old field succession the habitat is not
likely present. Nearby and adjacent sewerline projects along the creek were evaluated by Dr. Jim h=
of ARP. Bate- on their-r=rt Schweinit2s sunflower was not present
The Carolina heelsplitter is a freshwater mussel which prefers shaded areas either in a ponded portion of a
small stream or in runs along steep banks with moderate current. Primary habitat are waters less than three
feet deep with a soft mud, muddy sand, or shady gravelly substrate. It is normally restricted to protected
silted areas or under banks especially associated with obstructions such as stumps or fallen trees. Its current
distribution according to the US Fish and Wildlife Service is limited to portions of two streams -- Goose
Creek and Waxhaw Creek -- and a small river originating from rural areas in Union County. Therefore it is
not expected to occur on this site.

Request for NWP 26, 12
State Protected ies
The Carolina Darter (Etheostoma collis) is a fish that inhabits small streams such as those found in the
project area. This species has a federal status of Proposed Special Concern and a state status of Special
Concern. The species prefers small clear streams of less than 15' width with moderate to swift current and a
sand/gravel benthic composition. It apparently tolerates a wide range of water quality conditions and
vegetation types adjacent to the streams and appears resistant to pollution. (E. Menhinick). Therefore, strict
adherence to an approved erosion and sedimentation control plan will be maintained during the construction
period in order to control degradation of water quality.
CULTURAL RESOURCES
Based on a review of the USGS maps inspected at the Office of State Archaeology and the Survey and
Planning Office no sites were indicated that are on or potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic
Places.
AQUATICHABTTAT
The aquatic systems in the project area consist of headwater wetlands, intermittent tributaries, and ponds. A
variety of wildlife is supported by these systems including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects,
mollusks, and crustaceans. Therefore strict adherence to an approved erosion and sedimentation control plan
will be maintained during the construction period in order to control degradation of water quality
downstream and protect the areas to be preserved. Short term construction impacts, primarily stream
sedimentation will affect aquatic habitat, however this will be minimized to the extent practicable to promote
rapid recovery. Project construction will strictly adhere to an approved sedimentation and erosion control
plan. Best Management Practices will include utilizing siltation trapping ponds and other erosion control
structures where appropriate. Impacts from hazardous materials and other toxins to fish and aquatic fife
such as fuels will be avoided by not permitting staging areas to be located near surface waters. Also, as
required by the 401 Water Quality Certification conditions, measures will be taken to prevent "live" or fresh
concrete from coming into contact with waters until the concrete has hardened.
Nationwide Permit #12 Restoration Plan
As required by Nationwide Permit 12, the topsoil shall be saved through the disturbed area and the top 6"
to 12" of the trench will be backfilled with this topsoil to encourage rapid re-establishment of previous
vegetation conditions. Excess material must be removed to upland areas immediately upon completion of
construction. The contours throughout the area of disturbance will also be restored immediately upon the
completion of construction. An annual species suitable for wet locations will be planted within jurisdictional
wetlands for soil and erosion control. Perennials such as fescue will not be specified. The remaining
applicable Nationwide Permit 12 and 401 Water Quality Certification conditions which includes the
following will be incorporated into the plans and specifications of the project.
Grassing Specification
Disturbed wetland areas shall be stabilized with annual small grains that will initially stabilize the soils and
then allow the natural vegetation to become re-established. For stabilization, outside the optimum planting
windows, using a mixture of species on either side of the window may increase chances of a good stand.
Germination will be most difficult in the December - February period. For wetland stabilization during this
period, it will be necessary to be sure that wetlands are well mulched. Annual lespedeza could be added to
any planting mixtures during this period because it will germinate during the first warm days of spring.

14. This general certification does not authorize any permanent changes in preconstruction elevation
contours in waters or wetlands. The permitee will have a specific plan for restoring wetland contours. Any
excess material will be removed to a high ground disposal areas;
Non-compliance with or violation of the conditions herein set forth by a specific fill project shall result in
revocation of this Certification for the project and may also result in criminal and/or civil penalties. The
Director of the NCDWQ may require submission of a formal' application for Individual Certification for any
project in this category of activity, if it is determined that the project is likely to have a significant adverse
effect upon water quality or degrade the waters so that existing uses of the wetland or downstream waters
are precluded. Public hearings may be held for specific applications or group of applications prior to a
certification decision if deemed in the public's best interest by the Director of the NCDWQ.

issued by the State Clearinghouse;

17. Compensatory mitigation (i.e., restoration, creation or preservation) for wetland losses will not be
required for this Certification if written concurrence is not needed.
18. Written concurrence is required if the maintenance corridor is greater than 10 feet wide.
19. This certification does not relieve the applicant of the responsibility to obtain all other required
Federal, State, or local approval.
Additional USA CE Regional Conditions to Nationwide Permit 12 (Applicable to this project)
Temporary placement of excavated or fill material in waters and wetlands will be for the absolute
minimum period of time necessary to accomplish the work.
Each individual crossing will be stabilized immediately with native vegetation. Stabilizing with non-
native grasses (i.e., fescue, etc.) is prohibited
Anti-seep collars must be installed at no greater than 150-foot intervals on all sewer and drain lines
placed in wetlands, and all utility lines must be installed to prevent drainage of wetlands (i.e., no French
drain" construction, etc.)
The total width of the access corridor excavation and temporary fill area (including mechanized
land clearing) is restricted to no more than 40 feet and must be minimized to the extent practicable.
CONCLUSION
The approximate 100 acre residential development has been designed to balance the site's economic viability
with its environmental value. The goal of the Site Plan and Mitigation Plan is to help balance the
environmental consequences of this development by preserving the most valuable Jurisdictional Waters of
the U.S. on the site. The undisturbed streams and wetland areas will be preserved by the applicant or by a
group designated by the owner for this purpose.
Please contact me if you have any questions or require additional explanation. Thank you for your
consideration.
