Project Description
3a.
Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
This site (Tract B) is a fully developed parcel containing an existing solar power generation facility constructed in 2013
and 2014. The surrounding land use is timber production and undeveloped floodplain of the Cashie River. There is a
state correctional facility approximately % mile north of the site.
3b.
List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
0.90
3c.
List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
0.00
3d.
Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
This photovoltaic solar generation facility currently supplies approximately 5 MwAC of electricity to the power grid.
3e.
Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The site was undeveloped or in timber production prior to 2013. Clearing and grading of the site to accommodate
placement of solar arrays was performed in late 2013 and early 2014. Tract B currently has 11,280 post -mounted solar
panels with associated power inverters and transmission lines. Ongoing vegetation maintenance requires mechanical
mowing using tractor -drawn equipment and hand -operated weed trimmers.

Impact Justification and Mitigation
1.
Avoidance and Minimization
la.
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
In consultation with USACE and as referenced in Section B. 4..a, above, the jurisdictional extent of wetlands on the
project site was derived from a combination of a September 2016 field review and the results of a May 2017 soil boring
investigation, as given in Figure A and the co -submitted Jurisdictional Determination Request. Total jurisdictional
wetlands on the Project site are 0.90 acres.
The Applicant is proposing to permit, after the fact, 0.39 acres of wetlands under NWP 39. In requesting this amount of
impact, the Applicant evaluated the Project layout in light of (i) on -site wetlands, (ii) the technical needs of a viable solar
project (which include maintaining practicable and effective vehicle traffic and electrical and mechanical connectivity
across the Project site), and (III) avoiding and minimizing permitted impacts by ensuring that the minimum amount of
wetland impacts (as necessary to maintain access and connectivity) remain after restoration. With these factors in mind,
the 0.39 acres of proposed wetland impact includes three (3) spatially separated impact areas. Attached to this
application are proposed Erosion and Sediment Control drawings (prepared by Albemarle Associates) and "Windsor
Solar Tract B Restoration Plan" (prepared by Carolina Ecosystems) which more fully detail and inform the discussion
below.
As shown in Figure 3, Impact Area W1 comprises 0.37 acres in the lower section of the central drainageway which
bisects the site. After -the -fact permitting of these impacts will allow retention of the existing electrical connections and
vehicular access corridors, avoiding operational isolation of the eastern portion of the solar farm. In the upper section of
this drainageway, the Applicant proposes to remove approximately 300 solar panels and associated equipment, followed
by restoration of this area to its pre-existing wetland condition (Restoration Area WA). A surface drainageway below this
restoration will convey overflow water between and under solar arrays, providing a similar water conveyance function as
the original wetland drainage feature that was filled.
Impact Area W2, inside the security fence in the southeastern corner of the property, was identified during the 2017 soil
boring investigation. The Applicant now proposes after -the -fact permitting of 0.02 acres of wetland impact to allow
continued vehicular access and maintenance activities along the fenced perimeter. A larger area (0.10 acres) of wetland
impacts outside the fence and down -gradient from Impact W2 will be excavated and restored as Restoration Area WC.
An additional 0.03 acres of undisturbed wetlands in this area will remain undisturbed.
b.
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
The attached engineering and restoration documents referenced above provide detailed information on construction for
both drainageway reconfiguration and wetland restoration. In summary, in Restoration Area WA the solar panels will be
removed by hand. Extraction of the pilings will require using tracked or wide -tire equipment. Per discussions with
USACE and NC-DWR, fill will be removed in to the extent necessary to obtain wetland hydrology while avoiding ponding
of open water. An outlet pipe and overflow channel will be employed to maintain adequate hydrology. Restoration Area
WC will be fully excavated to pre -construction contours to restore floodplain connectivity. Both areas will then be
replanted and monitored per the specifications given in the attached Restoration Plan.
