Sullins Dee Freeman Governor Director Secretary November 7, 2011 Mr.Nathan Clark, Planning Director Town of Maggie Valley 3987 Soco Road Maggie Valley,NC 28751 Subject: Stream Determination Lee Property, Trinity Cove, PIN: 8607-62-5180 Haywood County Dear Mr. Clark: The Division of Water Quality(DWQ) staff(Susan Wilson and Kevin Barnett)met with you, at your request, and Mr. John Schreiber, Contractor, on November 3, 2011 to perform a stream determination along the tributary behind the Lee property. The stream behind the Lee townhome was identified as "intermittent" and is considered a surface water, subject to regulatory authority by the DWQ. The stream cannot be impacted without obtaining,permission from DWQ and/or the Army Corp of Engineers. The stream is an unnamed tributary to Factory Branch, a Class B surface water in the French Broad River Basin. While the stream is not classified as Trout or subject to the 25 foot riparian buffer, DWQ recommends that the proposed deck structure be at least 10 feet from the top of stream bank, and more if feasible. Any vegetative buffer will help ensure stability of the intermittent stream and reduce erosion capacity. Should you have further questions about this determination or this letter,please contact me at (828) 296—4500 or at susan.a.wilson@ncdenr.gov. Sincerely, Susan A.

I arranged a meeting date/time of August 5th at 1:30 and he said that he sent a request to you and would like you there as well (if you' re going to conduct a site visit) . He asked that we try to schedule a joint site visit since he's coming from Raleigh. I told him I'd ask you. Can you meet on the 5th at 1:30? If not, do you have other days/times available? If we can't conduct a joint site visit (or you decide you don't need to conduct a site visit for this), I'll just keep the currently scheduled visit date/time with him.

I would like to schedule a site visit with you in order to make a stream determination. I have attached two draft stream evaluation worksheets for a small eroding upland drainageway that transect the proposed site of the New Creative Arts Center, and a third evaluation for a downstream location. The drainage area at location#001 and#002 is approximately 2.5 and 3.0 acres respectfully. I have also attached a wetland data form for routine method indicating non-wetland conditions along the drainageway. Also attached are an agent authorization form,topographic map, and soil map of the area. Please call me at 919-696-6930 to arrange a date and time when you can meet me at the site. I would like to coordinate a date and time that will also work for Ms. Loretta Beckwith of USACOE. Thanks for your assistance. Sincerely, Lan ' , nc. Barrett L.

Wilson NC Division of Water Quality �U,L Asheville Regional Office 2090 U.S. 70 Highway Swannanoa,NC 28778 Re: Haywood Community College, Site, Dear Ms. Wilson: Please find attached documents regarding an upland site at Haywood Community College. I would like to schedule a site visit with you in order to make a stream determination. I have attached two draft stream evaluation worksheets for a small eroding upland drainageway that transect the proposed site of the New Creative Arts Center, and a third evaluation for a downstream location. The drainage area at location#001 and#002 is approximately 2.5 and 3.0 acres respectfully. I have also attached a wetland data form for routine method indicating non-wetland conditions along the drainageway. Also attached are an agent authorization form,topographic map, and soil map of the area. Please call me at 919-696-6930 to arrange a date and time when you can meet me at the site. I would like to coordinate a date and time that will also work for Ms. Loretta Beckwith of USACOE. Thanks for your assistance. Sincerely, wGp S011-0 Landi nc. ` Fn e ��A CARP Barrett L.
