RE: MVP Southgate Project
Major Variance Request for non -perpendicular stream crossings within the Jordan Lake Watershed,
15A NCAC 0213 .0267
Dear Ms. Higgins & Ms. Homewood:
Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC ("Mountain Valley") is requesting a Major Variance for construction and operation of
the MVP Southgate Project within the Jordan Lake Watershed. Mountain Valley is requesting the variance in
association with non -perpendicular stream crossings that will impact portions of the Zone 1 and Zone 2 buffers within
the Jordan Lake Watershed.
Specific conditions associated with Footnotes 1 and 4 for non -perpendicular crossings of riparian buffers by Utility
Non -Electric Corridors are detailed in the table below, along with whether the project can meet the condition, and
whether a variance for the condition is being requested. Project details and a summary of the justification for the
variance for each item is included in the attached variance form (VAR 10-2013), and detailed explanations and
discussions are included in Appendix D.

Due to the linear nature of the proposed project, and the multitude of factors including various agencies, landowners,
and sensitive resources, that could necessitate route adjustments to the currently proposed route, the project
requests that as part of this variance the Water Quality Committee issue a project specific condition to the variance
approval authorizing the Director (or delegated staff) to review and approve minor modifications to the variance
approval. This project specific condition would act as a modification to the existing "Delegation of Minor Modifications
to Approved Major Variances to the Director" issued on March 13, 2013 as indicated below in bold text.
As a condition of this delegation, the Director shall send any requests for modifications to approved major variances
to the Water Quality Committee if any of the following criteria are not met:
1. The proposed modification(s) do(es) not change the original preliminary findings that all of the
requirements for a Major Variance have been met pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B .0233(9)(a), 15A
NCAC 02B .0250(12)(a), 15A NCAC 02B .0259(9)(a), 15A NCAC 02B .0267(12)(a), or 15A NCAC
02B .0606(I)(a);
2. Any route adjustment that necessitates a modification must obtain any necessary approval from
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission prior to the impact;
3. The modification(s) do not result in a net increase to impacts (either direct or indirect) to buffers
or water quality; it may be assumed there is no net increase in impacts if the area of any new or
increased impacts is offset by a comparable reduction in the area of impacts, such that the total
area of impacts to Zone One buffers in the Jordan Lake Watershed remains equal to or less than
the total area approved as part of the major variance process,
4. The requested modification(s) comply with the original Commission's approval with conditions or
stipulations and;
5. The purpose of the project is unchanged.

Enclosed is the completed variance form (VAR 10-2013) and required attachments including the USGS Quad maps,
published soil survey maps, and site-specific impact maps for non -perpendicular stream crossings for which
Mountain Valley is seeking a variance. Also, in accordance with 15A NCAC 02B.0267, Mountain Valley is providing
an alternatives analysis demonstrating the need for the variance as well as the specific hardships that prevent
Mountain Valley from being able to fully comply with the buffer rules at the non -perpendicular stream crossings.

B. Proposed Activity
1. Project Description
1a. Provide a detailed description of the proposed activity including its purpose:
Project Description
Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC ("Mountain Valley") is seeking a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity ("Certificate") from
the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission ("FERC" or "Commission") pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Natural Gas Act to construct
and operate the MVP Southgate Project ("Southgate Project" or "Project"). The Southgate Project will provide timely, cost-
effective access to new natural gas supplies to meet the growing needs of natural gas users in the southeastern United States
("U.S."), including for the Project's anchor shipper, PSNC Energy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of SCANA Corporation ("PSNC
Energy"), a local distribution company serving customers in North Carolina. The Southgate Project is expected be in service by
late 2020. The Southgate Project is a separate project from the 303 -mile Mountain Valley Pipeline that is currently under
construction.
The Southgate Project includes an approximate 0.4 -mile -long 24 -inch -diameter pipeline (H-605), 73 miles of 24- and 16 -inch -
diameter natural gas pipeline (H-650), a new 28,915 nominal horsepower ("hp") compressor station (Lambert Compressor
Station), meter stations and other ancillary facilities (e.g. contractor yards and access roads) required for the safe and reliable
operation of the pipeline. The Southgate Project facilities will be located in Pittsylvania County, Virginia and Rockingham and
Alamance counties, in North Carolina.
The FERC will conduct a full review of the Project under its regulations in compliance with the Natural Gas Act ("NGA") and the
National Environmental Policy Act. On May 3, 2018, the Project requested approval from the FERC to initiate the Pre -filing review
process for the Project, and the FERC issued its approval of the request on May 15, 2018, under Docket No. PF18-4-000.
FORM: VAR 10-2013 Page 3 of 7

Purpose and Need
The purpose of the Project is to: (1) meet the growing needs of natural gas users in the southeastern U.S.; (2) add a new natural
gas transmission pipeline to provide competition and enhance the reliability and resiliency of the existing pipeline infrastructure
in North Carolina and southern Virginia; and (3) provide North Carolina and southern Virginia with direct pipeline access to the
Marcellus and Utica gas regions in West Virginia, Ohio and southwestern Pennsylvania. The Project will enhance the diversity of
gas supply and create additional pipeline capacity in the region.
In 2017, PSNC Energy, solicited interest from existing and proposed interstate pipeline providers for additional natural gas
transportation capacity. PSNC Energy is a local distribution company primarily engaged in the purchase, transportation,
distribution, and sale of natural gas to more than 563,000 customers in North Carolina. PSNC Energy solicited interest because it
requires additional pipeline capacity to meet forecasted incremental demand on its distribution system in the winter of
2020. Over the past four years, PSNC Energy has experienced a 15 percent increase in peak daily throughput on its system. This
trend will carry forward into the future, as PSNC Energy expects its design day requirements to increase an additional 11 percent
over the next five years. This past, present, and future demand growth on PSNC Energy's system reflects, at least in part, the
substantial population increase in North Carolina.
The Southgate Project is not designed to provide natural gas to any liquefied natural gas export terminal and has no intention of
seeking authorization under Section 3 of the Natural Gas Act to export natural gas. The Project terminates at an inland location
more than 185 miles from the nearest coastal Virginia port, 155 miles from the nearest coastal North Carolina port, and even
farther from the nearest liquefied natural gas export terminal. Accordingly, the Southgate Project does not have the physical
ability to export natural gas. As currently designed, gas transported on the Southgate system will be delivered into existing
facilities in Eden and Graham, North Carolina. The Project's anchor shipper, PSNC Energy, has committed to 300 MMcf/d of firm
transportation service and will use the gas it transports to serve its fast growing residential, commercial and industrial markets in
North Carolina.
1b. Attach a site plan showing the following items as applicable to the project: See attached Appendix C for project overview
and impact mapping for each non -perpendicular crossing.

1c. Attach an Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Form for each proposed level spreader or BMP.
2. For Major, Catawba, and Goose Creek variance requests, provide a description of all best management practices (BMPs) that
will be used to minimize disturbance and control the discharge of nutrients and sediments from stormwater.
Best management practices (BMPs) will be implemented to minimize construction disturbance and to control sediment
and/or nutrient laden stormwater. Construction disturbance will be minimized at all stream crossings by decreasing the
limits of disturbance from 100' to 75'. This reduction will decrease the area of exposed soil and therefore decrease the
volume of potential sediment and/or nutrient laden stormwater. Additional erosion control devices will be installed
perpendicularly across the right-of-way (ROW) to establish a protective stream buffer. Construction will be restricted within
the area until the waterbody crossing is ready to be installed. FERC and state in -stream timing restrictions (as applicable)
will be followed while restoration will be completed with the conclusion of in -stream work.
During construction, erosion and sediment (E&S) controls from a Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) approved
E&S Control Plan will be implemented. The E&S control design elements will include diversions and sediment filtering
devices along the limits of disturbance, and sediment trapping devices will be utilized to collect and treat runoff from within
the limits of disturbance. Erosion and sediment controls will be adjusted during construction, as needed and with DEQ
inspector approval, to match field conditions.
Post -construction, the pipeline ROW will be restored to original grades and revegetated so that no impervious surfaces will
exist within the buffers. Revegetation will occur per the seeding recommendations in the North Carolina (NC) Erosion and
Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual and the recommendations described in Item 1. All devices installed or
methods utilized will comply with the minimum standards of the NC E&S Control Planning and Design Manual. After
permanent stabilization has occurred, temporary E&S controls will be removed. An E&S Control Plan will be submitted to
NC DEQ for review and approval prior to any disturbance. A Stormwater Management Plan, containing restoration plans,
will be submitted to the various permit agencies including DEQ Rockingham County, Alamance County, Town of Haw River,
Town of Green Level, and Town of Graham for review and approval.
2a. Show the location of BMPs on your site plan.
See attached Appendix F for BMP typical site detail.
2b. Attach a Supplement Form for each structural BMP proposed.
See attached Appendix G for structural BMPs.
2c. Attach an Operation and Maintenance (O&M) Form for each structural BMP proposed.
E. Demonstration of Need for a Variance
The variance provision of the riparian buffer rules allows the Division or the Environmental Management Commission to grant a
variance when there are practical difficulties or unnecessary hardships that prevent compliance with the strict letter of riparian
buffer protection.
1. Explain how complying with the provisions of the applicable rule would prevent you from securing a reasonable return from or
make reasonable use of your property. Merely proving that the variance would permit a greater profit from the property shall
not be considered adequate justification for a variance. The Division will consider whether the variance is the minimum possible
deviation from the terms of the applicable Buffer Rule that shall make reasonable use of the property possible.
The provisions of the applicable rule state that no heavy equipment can be used in Zone 1 of the riparian buffer, but due to
the linear nature of the proposed project, heavy equipment is required to carry out clearing and grading, trenching, stringing of
the pipe, pipe bending, pipe assembly and welding, pipe lowering, and for padding and backfilling, and other tasks. Using heavy
equipment within Zone 1 is in harmony with the objectives of the buffer rules. Heavy equipment allows construction to be
completed as quickly and efficiently as possible. Minimizing the duration of construction activity within the buffer minimizes the
overall impacts associated with construction by, among other things, reducing the time ground in the riparian area is left in a
disturbed state and allowing the area to be returned to a vegetated state more rapidly. For a detailed discussion on all of the
FORM: VAR 10-2013 Page 6 of 7

provisions of the applicable rule, see attached Appendix D, and for an evaluation of the alternatives to crossing perpendicular
2. Explain how the hardship results from application of the Buffer Rule to the property rather from other factors such as deed
restrictions or other hardships (e.g. zoning setbacks, floodplains, etc).
The Buffer Rules for the construction of a buried, non -electric utility line are what create a hardship for the project.
Hardships resulting from other permitting restrictions are distinct from needing to apply for the major variance. See attached
Appendix D for further explanation on Jordan Lake hardships as they pertain to this project.
3. Explain how the hardship results from physical nature of the property, such as its size, shape, or topography, which is different
from that of neighboring property.
The final receipt point of this Project is located within the Jordan Lake Watershed. The utility line needs to traverse through
the watershed to deliver the gas to the end users. The size of the pipeline (16" diameter) requires heavy equipment for the safe,
expedient installation of the utility system. See Appendix D for additional information on Jordan Lake construction hardships.
4. Explain whether the hardship was caused by the applicant knowingly or unknowingly violating the applicable Buffer Rule.
No, the hardships were not caused by knowingly or unknowingly violating the applicable Buffer Rule. The project has not
constructed the pipeline or disturbed the area.
5. For Neuse, Tar -Pamlico, Jordan Lake and Goose Creek only: Did the applicant purchase the property after the effective date of
the applicable Buffer Rule and then request a variance?
The applicant is in the process of acquiring property easements and has not purchased any land inside of the Jordan Lake
Watershed at the time of this application.
6. Explain how the hardship is rare or unique to the applicant's property, rather than the result of conditions that are widespread.
The MVP Southgate Prosect is unique in that it is a long linear gas utility line that, to our knowledge, no other has been built
in the Jordan Lake Watershed since adoption of the Jordan Lake Riparian Buffer Rules. It is further unique in that while other
linear gas pipelines of this length or longer have built in NC within other watersheds that require riparian buffers (e.g. Neuse,
Tar -PAM), the buffer rules in those watersheds do not contain the requirements of footnote 1 for utility, non -electric, other
than perpendicular crossings, and therefore those projects were not required to obtain variances even though they were or will
be constructed in a similar fashion to this project. Additionally, some conditions of Footnote 4 do not have a practical
alternative for installing a 16" pipeline and are further discussed in Appendix D.
F. Deed Restrictions
By your signature in Section G of this application, you certify that all structural stormwater BMPs required by this variance shall
be located in recorded drainage easements, that the easements will run with the land, that the easements cannot be changed
or deleted without concurrence from the State, and that the easements will be recorded prior to the sale of any lot.
G. Applicant's Certification
I, Mountain Valley Pipeline, LLC / Matthew Raffenberg (print or type name of person listed in Section A,
Item 2), certify that the information included on this permit application form is correct, that the project will be constructed in
conformance with the approved plans and that the deed restrictions in accordance with Section F of this form will be recorded
with all required permit conditions.
