DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY
Wilmington District, Corps of Engineers
Post Office Box 1890
Wilmington, North Carolina 28402
Action ID. 199101511
December 10, 1991
ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT, FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT
AND STATEMENT OF FINDINGS
Applicant: HARNETT COUNTY, Post office Box 759, Lillington, North Carolina
27546
This permit action is being taken under authority delegated to the
Wilmington District Engineer by the Secretary of the Army and the Chief of
Engineers by Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations, Part 325.8, pursuant to
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act.
Project Description: The proposed work involves the placement of fill
material in wetlands of West Buies and Buies creek, associated with
installation of an 11-mile regional interceptor system, near Lillington in
northeast Harnett County, North Carolina. Also, the proposed work includes
construction of a wastewater treatment plant near the confluence of Buies
Creek and the Cape Fear River.
Environmental Setting: The project area encompasses West Buies Creek from
S.R. 1507, south of Angier, downstream to its confluence with Buies Creek and,
further downstream to the Cape Fear River 4 miles east of Lillington. Most of
the project area is underlain by Middendorf formation, a coastal plain
cretaceous formation typical of the North Carolina sandhills region. Soils
along the flood plain of West Buies Creek are dominated by Bibb and Rains
sandy loam, both hydric soils. The southern half of the project area is
dominated by Wagram, Pocalla and Marlboro sandy loams and Lillington gravelly
sandy loam. The southernmost mile of the project area consists of steeper
terrain where altavista and Wickham fine sandy loams, Lillington gravelly
sandy loam and Nason silt loam are the predominant soils. Most of the project
corridor consists,of bottomland hardwood forest within a 200 to 1000-foot-wide
flood plain along Buies Creek. The forests are bordered by rural residential
areas, fields and pastures, often extending into the flood plain. Small farms
ponds and beaver ponds on tributaries of West Buies Creek are common in the
northern half of the project area. The last mile of Buies Creek, a
steep-banked segment with little flood plain, runs along the eastern border of
Keith Hills, a residential development and golf course associated with
Compbell College. The last half of West Buies Creek is impounded to provide
ponds on the Keith Hills golf course, but no municipal water supplies are
drawn from the basin. Currently, none of the project area is in active forest
management.
-2-
Environmental impacts: The site for the wastewater treatment plant consists
of approximately 20 acres of predominantly oak/hickory forest. Approximately
7 acres are proposed to be cleared for plant construction and the remainder of
the tract is planned to be undisturbed. The nearest residence is located
approximately 2,200 feet from the site, and a sufficient tree buffer will
exist to avoid adverse aesthetic impacts. Approximately 38 acres of
jurisdictional forested wetlands, north of Keith Hills Drive, are to be
temporarily disturbed to install the proposed transport (pipeline) system.
Pre-construction contours are to be restored, but vegetation control will
allow only herbaceous plants and small shrubs to re-establish. Forest cover
will be permanently lost. Secondary and cumulative impacts are related to
urban growth promoted by the project. Increased impervious surface area in
the watershed will create higher peak stormflows, creating erosion, and will
reduce long-term soilwater capacity, which will cause wetlands to shrink.
Stormwater management will mitigate some of these effects. The project will
also promote additional utility line usage in these wetland areas.
Alternatives: Three alternative alignments were considered by the applicant.
Although the selected alignment does involve disturbance and permanent loss of
wooded wetlands, it minimizes impacts to private property and provides
effective service to the planning area at a minimum cost. In recognition of
the importance of forested wetlands to the natural habitat along Buies Creek
and the protection of downstream surface waters, a mitigation plan has been
developed to minimize impacts during and after construction of the
interception system.
Summary:. I have reviewed the application and plans furnished by the applicant
and the environmental assessment. I am aware that the project would involve
the disturbance and permanent loss of wooded wetlands. Although the alignment
does involve disturbance of wetlands, it minimizes impacts to private property
owners and provides effective service to the planning area at a minimum cost.
The sewer can be utilized by owners on both sides of the stream and reduces
the number of pump stations. Although the alignment does involve disturbance
of wetlands, it minimizes impacts to private property owners and provides
effective service to the planning area at a minimum cost. The sewer can be
utilized by owners on both sides of the stream and reduces the number of pump
stations. Plans minimize impacts, during and after construction, and a
cost-wise, efficient public wastewater treatment plant and sewerline system is
to be provided.
The proposed project has had extensive review through our normal public notice
process, and there are no substantive objections to the project as of the
writing of this statement. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S.
Fish and Wildlife Service, and the National Marine Fisheries Service have
reviewed this application and have no unresolved concerns.
-3-
I have reviewed the application and plans and the public interest record, and
I find that the proposed work is not controversial and will not have a
significant effect on the quality of the human environment.
I find that this application is not a major Federal action significantly
affecting the human environment; hence, the preparation of a detailed
statement under Section 102(2)(c) of the National Environment Policy Act of
1969 is not required.
I have given full consideration to this application. After weighing favorable
and unfavorable aspects, I find that the issuance of a permit to Harnett
County will not be contrary to the general public interest provided that they
adhere to the conditions incorporated in the permit.

CAPE FEAR REGIONAL WASTEWATER INTERCEPTOR SYSTEM
The purpose of this attachment to the permit application for the discharge of dredged or fill
material into any Waters of the United States or Wetlands is to describe the alternatives,
mitigation, and construction activities proposed for the Cape Fear Regional Wastewater
Interceptor System.
Alternative Analysis
The Cape Fear Regional Wastewater Interceptor System is part of the regional plan
alternative chosen to serve the 201 planning area of Northeast Harnett County, Town of
Angier, Town of Coats, and Village of Buies Creeks. The regional plan alternative consists of
a regional wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) and an interceptor system consisting of 10.5
miles of 30 through 15-inch gravity sewer, and .9 mile of a 12-inch force main. Enclosed are the
Finding of No Significant Impact(FNSI) and the Environmental Assessment(EA) which
describe the alternative analysis performed in the 201 plan amendment and reasons for the
chosen alternative which includes the Interceptor System. A description of the alternative
locations for the Interceptor System is presented below.
The Interceptor System was designed to maximize the service area while minimizing cost and
environmental impacts. Existing easements and right of ways were utilized for the placement
of the 12-inch force main (0.8 mile) from the existing Town of Angier WWTP to the
headwaters of West Buies Creek and placement of the 30-, 27-, and 15-inch gravity sewer (1.3
miles) from the existingg Buies Creek - Coats WWTP to the proposed regional WWTP. The
chosen alternative for the location of the remaining 15-, 18-, 21-, and 24-inch gravity sewer,
designated the West Buies Creek Interceptor was near West Buies Creek within the wetlands.
The three (3) alternative locations reviewed for the West Buies Creek Interceptor are
presented below.
The first alternative was to utilize existing easements and right of ways. This alternative would
require a combination of pump stations, force mains, and gravity sewers to convey the
wastewater. The following advantage of this alternative was:
1. Minimized wetland disturbance
The following disadvantages of this alternative were:
1.The force mains and gravity sewers would be located along existing roads therefore
requiring a system on both sides of West Buies Creek to service the entire 201 planning
area.
2.Pump stations have a high initial cost compared with gravity sewer at average depths along
with a higher yearly operating and maintenance cost.
3.Pump stations are less reliable than gravity sewers and failure could cause untreated
sewage to be discharged to the surface waters.
4.Force mains are difficult to tie into therefore increasing the cost for existing and future
users to utilize the wastewater facility.
The second alternative was to locate the gravity sewer outside of the West Buies Creek
wetlands. The following advantage of this alternative was:
1. Minimize wetland disturbance.
The following disadvantages of this alternative were:
1.The wide wetlands would require a separate sewer on each side of the wetland boundaries
in order to serve the 201 planning area.
2.If the sewer is placed on only one side of the wetland the line would be forced into deeper
depths which would increase the cost of the sewer
3.If the sewer is placed on only one side and the wetlands crossed where necessary for
constructability, the length of the sewer would be increased which would increase the
depth and cost.
4.Easements would be required within usable land of private property owners. The
easements would restrict the use of the private owners land and therefore increase the cost
of the easement.
The third and chosen alternative was locating the gravity sewer within the West Buies Creek
wetlands and mitigate the impacts. The following advantages of this alternative were:
1. Maximum service to the 201 planning area at the minimum cost because one sewer can be
utilized by both sides of the stream and simple connections should be possible without the
use of pump stations and force mains.
2.Minimize the impact to private owners use of the land.
3.The length and depth of the sewer was minimized because the natural ground is at the
lowest elevation and necessary crossing of the streams were accomplished in a shorter
distance.
4.Reduced the number of existing and future pump stations, thus alleviating potential
environmental hazards since the gravity sewer is more reliable than pump stations to
convey wastewater.
The following disadvantage of this alternative was:
1. Disturbance of wetlands.
Mitigation Plan
In recognition of the importance of wetlands (in particular, forested wetlands) to the natural
habitat along the West Buies Creek and the protection of downstream surface waters, a
mitigation plan was developed to minimize impacts during and after construction of the
interceptor system. This mitigation plan is presented in the EA and summarized in the FNSI.
Construction Activities
Following is a general description of the construction activities anticipated for development of
the Interceptor System: The final means and methods of construction will be determined by
the contractor performing the work.
o The surveyors will stake out the manhole locations in the field.
o The contractor will place the appropriate sediment and erosion controls.
o The permanent twenty (20) feet easement will be cleared and grubbed.
o Portions of the trench will be excavated and the material temporarily placed within the
forty (40 feet temporary construction easement. If required to install the sewer, select
trees will be cleared outside of the permanent twenty (20) feet easement but within the
forty (40) feet temporary easement.
o The sewer and manholes will be installed and tested.
o Upon placement of the gravity sewers, the excavated material will be placed back into the
trench and all disturbed area will be graded back to existing elevations.
o The contractor will temporarily seed steep slopes immediately upon completion of
backfilling.
o All disturbed areas will be permanently seeded upon acceptance of the sewer installation.
CAPE FEAR REGIONAL WASTEWATER INTERCEPTOR SYSTEM
Location of Spoil Area
The excavated material not used as backfill in the sewer trench will be hauled away and
disposed of in an upland location. The contractor will be responsible for proper disposal and
encouraged to have the disposal location approved by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The
geotechiiical report shows that most of the excavated material will be adequate for trench
backfill. Since the ma'ority of the soil will be placed back into the excavated trench, there
should be only a smaff quantity of spoil material.

Action ID. 199101511
PUBLIC NOTICE
July 3, 1991
HARNETT COUNTY, Post Office Box 759, Lillington, North Carolina 27546,
has applied for a Department of the Army permit TO PLACE FILL MATERIAL IN
WETLANDS OF WEST BUIES, BUIES CREEK AND NORTHEAST HARNETT COUNTY ASSOCIATED
WITH INSTALLATION OF AN ELEVEN MILE REGIONAL INTERSECTOR SYSTEM NEAR
LILLINGTON, Harnett County, North Carolina.
The following description of the work is taken from data provided by the
applicant and from observations made during an onsite visit by a
representative of the Corps of Engineers. Plans submitted with the
application show the proposed construction of a wastewater treatment plant
near the conflunce of Buies Creek and the Cape Fear River. The plant site
consists of 20 acres of predominantly Oak/Hickory forest. Approximately 7
acres are to be cleared for construction of the proposed wastewater treatment
facilities, and the remainder of the tract is to be undisturbed. The nearest
residence is approximately 2,200 feet from the proposed treatment facilities,
and adequate distance and sufficient tree buffer exist to avoid adverse
aesthetic impacts. Approximately 52,280 linear feet of interceptors are to be
placed along West Buies and Buies Creek to transport wastewater to the 1.5 mgd
sub-regional treatment facility. Approximately 38 acres of forested wetlands
are to be disturbed to contruct the proposed transport system. Three
alternative alignments were considered by the applicant. Although the
selected alignment does involve disturbance of wetlands, it minimizes impacts
to private property owners and provides effective service to the planning
area, at minimum cost, as one sewer can be utilized by both sides of the
stream and reduce the number of existing and future pump stations. The
purpose of the work is to provide for an improved, efficient public wastewater
treatment plant and sewer line system. Plans showing the work are included
with this public notice.
The State of North Carolina will review this public notice to determine
the need for the applicant to obtain any required State authorization. No DA
permit will be issued until the coordinated State viewpoint on the proposal
has been received and reviewed by this agency, nor will a DA permit be issued
until the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (DEM) has
determined the applicability of a Water Quality Certificate as required by
PL 92-500.
This application is being considered pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). Any person may request, in writing within the
File Copy"'- Do Not Remove From Folder;
-2-
comment period specified in the notice, that a public hearing be held to
consider this application. Requests for public hearing shall state, with
particularity, the reasons for holding a public hearing.
The District Engineer has consulted the latest published version of the
National Register of Historic Places for the presence or absence of registered
properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein, and
this worksite is not registered property or property listed as being eligible
for inclusion in the Register. Consultation of the National Register
constitutes the extent of cultural resource investigations by the District
Engineer, and he is otherwise unaware of the presence of such resources.
Presently, unknown archaeological, scientific, prehistorical, or historical
data may be lost or destroyed by work under the requested permit.
The District Engineer, based on available information, is not aware that
the proposed activity will affect species, or their critical habitat,
designated as endangered or threatened pursuant to the Endangered Species Act
of 1973.
The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of
the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity
and its intended use on the public interest. Evaluation of the probable
impacts which the proposed activity may have on the public interest requires a
careful weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each particular
case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. The
decision whether to authorize a proposal, and, if so, the conditions under
which it will be allowed to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome of
the general balancing process. That decision should reflect the national
concern for both protection and utilization of important resources. All
factors which may be relevant to the proposal must be considered including the
cumulative effects thereof. Among those are conservation, economics,
aesthetics, general environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish
and wildlife values, flood hazards and flood plain values (in accordance with
Executive Order 11988), land use, navigation, shore erosion and accretion,
recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs,
safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of property
ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people. For
activities involving the placement of dredged or fill materials in waters of
the United States, a permit will be denied if the discharge that would be
authorized by such permit would not comply with the Environmental Protection
Agencies' 404(b)(1) guidelines. Subject to the preceding sentence and any
other applicable guidelines or criteria, a permit will be granted unless the
District Engineer determines that it would be contrary to the public interest.
-3-
The Corps of Engineers is soliciting comments from the public; Federal,
State and local agencies and officials; Indian Tribes and other interested
parties in order to consider and evaluate the impacts of this proposed
activity. Any comments received will be considered by the Corps of Engineers
to determine whether to issue, modify, condition or deny a permit for this
proposal. To make this decision, comments are used to assess impacts on
endangered species, historic properties, water quality, general environmental
effects and the other public interest factors listed above. Comments are used
in the preparation of an Environmental Assessment and/or an Environmental
Impact Statement pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act. Comments
are also used to determine the need for a public hearing and to determine the
overall public interest of the proposed activity.
Generally, the decision whether to issue this Department of the Army
permit will not be made until the DEM issues, denies, or waives State
certification required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The DEM
considers whether or not the proposed activity will comply with Sections 301,
302, 306, and 307 of the Clean Water Act. The application and this public
notice for the Department of the Army permit serve as application to the DEM
for certification.
Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be
reviewed at the offices of the Environmental Operations Section, North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Salisbury Street, Archdale
Building, Raleigh, North Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished
to any person requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs.
The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management plans to take
final action in the issuance of the Clean Water Act certification on or after
August 2, 1991.
All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for Clean
Water Act certification should do so in writing delivered to the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Post Office Box 27687, Raleigh,
North Carolina 27611-7687, on or before July 29, 1991, Attention: Mr. John
Dorney.
Written comments pertinent to the proposed work, as outlined above, will.
be received in this office, Attention: Mr. Michael Taylor, until 4:15 p.m.,
August 9, 1991 or telephone [phone].

CERTIFICATION
THIS CERTIFICATION is issued
of Section 401 Public Laws 92-500
and subject to the North Carolina
Management Regulations in 15 NCAC
County pursuant to an application
1991 to construct a 9.9 mile sewe
in conformity with the requirements
and 95-217 of the United States
Division of Environmental
2H, Section .0500 to Harnett
filed on the 8th day of July,
r line and interceptor system.
The Application provides adequate assurance that the
discharge of fill material into the waters of Buies and West
Bries Creeks in conjunction with the proposed regional
interceptor system in Harnett County will not result in a
violation of applicable Water Quality Standards and discharge
guidelines. Therefore, the State of North Carolina certifies that
this activity will not violate Sections 301, 302, 303, 306, 307
of PL 92-500 and PL 95-217 if conducted in accordance with the
application and conditions hereinafter set forth.
Condition(s) of Certification:
1. That the activity be conducted in such a manner as to
prevent significant increase in turbidity outside the area
of construction or construction related discharge (increases
such that the turbidity in the Stream is 25 NTU's or less
are not considered significant).
2. Mitigation shall be as outlined in the Environmental
Assessment FONSI or as agreed upon by the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers.
Violations of any condition herein set forth shall result in
revocation of this Certification.
This Certification shall become null and void unless the above
conditions are made conditions of the Federal Permit.

F. Environmental Consequences, Pi.tigative Measures
The proposed wastewater treatment plant will be located near the
confluence of Buies Creek and the Cape Fear River. The proposed plant
site consists of 20 acres of predominantly Oak/Hickory forests.
Approximately 7 acres of the total amount will be cleared for the
construction of the proposed wastewater treatment facilities and the
unoccupied portion of the tract will remain. undisturbed. The nearest
residence is approximately 2,200 feet from the proposed treatment
facilities and adequate distance and sufficient tree buffer exist to
avoid adverse aesthetic impacts. Approximately 52,280 linear feet of }
interceptors will be placed along West Buies and Buies Creeks to
transport wastewater to the 1.5 mgd subregional treatment facility.
This action will require soil disturbing activity in previously cleared
and undisturbed areas. A 40 foot construction corridor and a 20 foot
permanent easement will be required. Approximately 38 acres of --
forested wetlands will be disrupted in order to construct the proposed
transport system. Although bottomland hardwoods will be removed, the
interceptor rights-of-way can increase ecotone habitats and allow
colonization by species requiring open areas. The biological
assessment prepared by Robert J. Goldstein and Associates indicated
that the right-of-way is not wide enough to cause functional habitat
fragmentation to birds and mammals, but amphibians may be adversely
impacted by the removal of forest cover. Secondary and cumulative
impacts to the terrestrial habitats could result from future growth and
development. The Department of Cultural Resources has determined that
the proposed project should have no significant adverse impact to
architectural; historic, or archaeological resources. The Division of
Environmental Health does not object to the project providing that the
discharge point fran the 1.5 mgd regional wastewater treatment plant is
not located any closer to the 8.0 mgd raw water intake point downstream
on the Cape Fear River. implementing-the plan should not contravene
any State and Federal air pollution emission limitations. The Division
of Environmental Management's Groundwater Section has determined that
the selected alternative will have a minimum impact upon groundwater.
The Division of Parks and Recreation, the Wildlife Resources
Commission, and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service reviewed the plan
and raised sane concerns about the impact to fish and wildlife.
Specifically, the agencies felt the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker
and the Cape Fear shiner may be impacted. A biological survey concluded
that a contiguous habitat does not exist to support the red-cockaded
woodpecker. Therefore, the project should not have any impact on this
endangered species. Streams were investigated to determine if the Cape
Fear shiner existed in the project area. Accordingly, the endangered
fish was not found, nor was the appropriate habitat discovered.
Further concerns were expressed by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
-5-

and the Wildlife Resources Commission about the clearing of forested
wetlands. The following mitigative measures will be implemented to
minimize significant adverse short and long-term impacts to wetlands.
1) A sedimentation and erosion control plan will be required to
reduce runoff to nearby streams.
2) Clearing for the interceptor corridor along West Buies and Buies
Creeks will remain at least 50 feet from stream banks to avoid
loss of tree canopy, to prevent bank destabilization, and to allow
deposition of sediments and pollutants.
3) Stream crossings will be minimized to avoid disturbing benthic and
riparian habitats and stream hydrology. Stream crossings will
be oriented perpendicular to the channel and high-quality habitats
such as riffles will be avoided.
4) Compensatory mitigation for unavoidable impacts will involve
reconstruction and enhancement of stream charnels and adjacent
riparian habitat in accordance with Wildlife Resources Commission's
guidelines.
5) T,?e contractor will be required to replace the mast production of, V') CA)
approximately 38 acres of forested wetlands by planting 17 trees
per acre of swamp tupelo and 5 trees per acre of water oak.
6) Construct a chlorination/dechlorination system which will meet
chlorine residual requirements of the NPDES permit. The system
will also include safety features such as a dual backup unit,
automatic switches, automatic shutdown, flow control, and audible
alarms.
7) The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will issue an individual permit
to construct the proposed facilities and the required conditions
will be added to the contract specification.
8) The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will complete its final review
of the biological assessment and determine if additional
mitigative measures will be required.
Mitigative measures will be implemented and construction activities
will be conducted in accordance with appropriate guidelines and
required regulations. The project will allow orderly development in
the county and protect water quality in the Cape Fear River.
G. Public Participation, Sources Consulted
A public hearing was held April 30, 1990 on a proposed project in which
the recoffwnded treatment plant location was the south side of the Cape
Fear River. The Tovm of Lillington subsequently withdrew its support
for the regional treatment plan, and it became more cost effective to
locate the treatment plant on the north side of the Cape Fear River.
