NCDOT Work Order No. 6.402152 Reference: NCDOT permit application (June 23, 2003) The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) plans to complete secondary road improvements to SR 2655 (Three Sisters Road) from US 64 to end of state maintenance in Wake County. Construction of the project will necessitate impacts to waters of the United States. Application was made for a Department of the Army Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) 14 and North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) No. 3404 and isolated wetland permit in an application dated June 23, 2003. An automated payment procedure has recently been implemented between the NCDOT and NCDWQ. This procedure will enable the Division to apply for the 401 WQC without submitting a check for this permit application. This new procedure will provide payment to the NCDWQ by charging the permit application fee directly to the appropriate NCDOT work order. The NCDOT work order for this Droiect is 6.402152. Proiect impacts are less than one acre of cumulative wetland/water impacts and less than 150 linear feet cumulative impacts to streams, _therefore. _Dlease note that a fee of $200.00 is reauired for this project. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at (919) 560-6081. Sincerely, Christopher A. Murray, P.W.S. PA YMEN T Environmental Officer RECEIVED Division 5, 2612 N.

NCDOT Work Order No. 6.402152 The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade and pave SR 2655 (Three Sisters Road) from US 64 to end of state maintenance in Wake County (Figures 1-2). Total project length is 0.8 miles. Transportation and highway laws of North Carolina (G.S. 136-44.6, 13644.7, 13644.7A, 13644.8, and 136-44.9) require the NCDOT to develop annual work programs for construction and maintenance of secondary roads. These general statutes specifically set forth requirements for annual construction and paving of existing unpaved roads. Paving of these roads is performed in priority order as established by the NCDOT for each unpaved road within a given county. This number is based on characteristics of each road, including number of homes, schools, churches, businesses, industries, recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of school bus routes, and value as a thoroughfare. SR 2655 is scheduled to be paved in the 2002-2003 Secondary Roads Construction Program. Impacts to Waters of the United States Wetland delineations were conducted using the field delineation method outlined in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory, 1987). U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetland Data Forms and a North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Wetland Rating Forms are attached to this application. Four sites are located within the project limits. Division 5, 2612 N. Duke Street, Durham, NC 27704 Phone: (919) 560-6081 Fax: (919) 560-3371 2 Site 1-Station 24+34 to 28+55-Lt- The' project crosses an emergent-nonpersistent wetland that can more accurately be described as a wet roadside ditch (Photograph 1 and Figure 3). Permanent impacts at this site include 0.05 acre fill in wetlands. The wetland has a DWQ wetland rating of 13. Site 2-Station 29+40 to 29+75-Rt- The project crosses an isolated forested wetland (Photograph 2 and Figure 3). Permanent impacts at this site include 0.01 acre fill in wetlands. The wetland has a DWQ wetland rating of 12. Site 3-Station 37+50 to 38+62-Rt- The project crosses an isolated forested wetland (Photograph 3 and Figure 4). Permanent impacts at this site include 0.02 acre fill in wetlands. The wetland has a DWQ wetland rating of 12. Site 4-Station 37+00 to 38+50-Lt- and Station 39+00 to 40+00-Lt- The project crosses an isolated emergent-nonpersistent wetland that can more accurately be described as a wet roadside ditch (Photograph 4 and Figure 4). Permanent impacts at this site include 0.02 acre fill in wetlands. The wetland has a DWQ wetland rating of 11. Riparian Buffer Site 1-Station 24+34 to 28+55-Lt- The Soil Survey of Wake County (1970) depicts a stream crossing at this site. However, the most recent version of the Knightdale (USGS, 1993) topographic map does not indicate a stream crossing at this site. Ms. Debbie Edwards (NCDENR-DWQ) conducted a site visit on June 23, 2003 and indicated that the system is not present in the field, and is therefore not subject to the riparian buffer rule. Site 3-Station 37+50 to 38+62-Rt- The Soil Survey of Wake County (1970) depicts a stream crossing at this site. However, the most recent version of the Knightdale (USGS, 1993) topographic map does not indicate a stream crossing at this site. Ms. Debbie Edwards (NCDENR-DWQ) conducted a site visit on June 23, 2003 and indicated that the system is not present in the field, and is therefore not subject to the riparian buffer rule. Waters of the U.S. Mitigation Avoidance: All wetlands not affected by the project will be protected from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or storage of construction supplies will be allowed in wetlands. Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at jurisdictional sites. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces and the Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts at this site. Compensatory Mitigation: Construction of the project will result in only minimal impacts to waters of the United States. Impacts have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts, compensatory mitigation for wetland impacts will not be provided for this project. Protected Species Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed endangered ad Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the ESA. As of January 29, 2003, there are four federally protected species listed for Wake County. They include bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii), dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon) and red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides boralfs). Biological Conclusions of No Effect have been rendered for each species. Historical Compliance Historic compliance work to be scheduled and concurrence with Historic Preservation Office will be obtained if required. Summary NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 2655 in Wake County. Construction impacts are presented in Table 1. Table 1. Impacts to wetlands.

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. All wetlands not affected by construction will be protected from unnecessary encroachment during; construction. The side slope of the jurisdictional sites has been steepened to the maximum extent possible. Strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced during construction. Only the smallest amount of fill necessary to complete the project will be placed in waters of the United States. VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to 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 March 9, 2000, 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 NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as Page 9 of 12 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 (acreagellinear 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. N/A 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at (919) 733-5208 to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the following information: Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): N/A Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): N/A Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ) Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public (federal/state) land? Yes ® No ? If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)? Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA coordinator at (919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation. Yes El No If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ? No ? Page 10 of 12 r • T. X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ) It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the applicant's discretion. Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )? Yes ? No ® If you answered "yes", provide the following information: Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer multipliers. Zone* Impact (square feet Multiplier Required Mitigation 1 3 N/A 2 1.5 N/A Total N/A * Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1. If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as identified within 15A NCAC 2B.0242 or.0260. N/A XI.
