written approval to perform the work is not required The proposed project has also been
designed and will be constructed in accordance with the applicable conditions of General
Water Quality Certification No 3883 Accordingly written concurrence from DWQ is
not required
The proposed project involves improvements to the raw and finished water lines near the
Franklin Water Treatment Plant located at 5200 Brookshire Boulevard in Charlotte
North Carolina These improvements include replacement of three existing water lines at
a stream crossing known as the Franklin Crossing within the pipeline right of way dust
to the southeast of the treatment plant The stream in this project area continues to erode
and there is concern about pipe support As such CMU is planning replacement of these
three pipes with new sections that will be installed below grade The replacement will be
performed with traditional cut and cover methods The improvements also include
replacement of an existing section of 24 inch raw water line at a stream crossing near
LaSalle Street Erosion in this area has also resulted in concern about support of a
previously buried pipe The existing 24 inch aerial crossing is currently not supported
consequently CMU is planning to install permanent support of either two 10 inch
diameter mini piles or cast in place concrete pipe support
The location of the project corridor is depicted on the Site Vicinity Map (Figure 1) the
appropriate portion of the Mountain Island Lake and Derita N C (1993) USGS

On February 1 2012 S &ME s Suzanne Knudsen and Darrm Peine of S &ME visited the
Franklin and LaSalle Crossing sites and conducted a pedestrian reconnaissance to
determine whether there were jurisdictional features present (e g Waters of the United
States or isolated waters that could be subject to the jurisdictional authority of the state of
North Carolina) The extent of the pedestrian reconnaissance was limited to those areas
as described by Hazen & Sawyer P C and as shown in the attached figures as Project
Areas
S &ME reviewed the sites for wetlands or other jurisdictional waters in accordance with
the U S Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual and
corresponding Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Regional supplement guide and the
Stream Identification Form from the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
(NCDWQ)
Dominant vegetation observed along the maintained pipeline corridors includes pine
(Prnus sp ) red maple (Acer rubrum) sweetgum (Ltquidambar styraciflua) American
elm (Ulmus americana) sycamore (Platanus occidentals) and Chinese privet
(Ligustrum sinense) Soils in the project vicinities are composed of silty and silty clay
loams Review of the Mecklenburg County Soil Survey and the USDA Soil Survey

Nationwide Permit No 3 S &ME Project No 1351 12 004
Charlotte Mecklenburg Utilities Raw and Finished Water Line Project May 24, 2012
Geographic Data shows a majority of soils in the project areas to be Cecil clay loam
Monocan loam and urban land
Franklin Crossing Site
The Franklin Crossing site was accessed from Worth Place off Lawton Road and
surrounding land use is industrial The area of interest for review included approximately
500 feet along the pipeline corridor and approximately 200 feet at the stream crossing
perpendicular to the corridor
S &ME delineated one jurisdictional water feature within the Franklin Crossing review
area This water a stream designated as Stream S 1 is a perennial Relatively Permanent
Water (RPW) with year round flow (Photo 1) subject to the regulatory authority of the
USACE and the NCDWQ One non jurisdictional drainage feature was observed within
the southwest corner of the review area (Photo 2) S &ME utilized the NCDWQ Stream
Classification Form to determine the jurisdictional status of identified drainage features
No evidence of wetland hydrology or hydrtc soil was observed within the review area
during the time of field review However a small (approximately 0 001 — 0 01 acre)
emergent wetland was observed outside the review area and adjacent to Mecklenburg
County Parcel ID 03918113 (Figure 4)
LaSalle Crossing Site
The LaSalle Crossing site was accessed from Pennsylvania Avenue off West Brookshire
Freeway and surrounding land use is predominately residential The area of interest for
review included approximately 930 feet along the pipeline corridor and approximately
200 feet at the stream crossing perpendicular to the corridor S &ME delineated four
jurisdictional waters within the LaSalle Crossing review area and included three
perennial RPW with year round flow (Photos 3 4 and 6) and one open water pond
(Photo 5) subject to the regulatory authority of the USACE and the NCDWQ (Figure 4)
No evidence of wetland hydrology or hydric soil was observed within the review area
during the time of field review
PROTECTED SPECIES AND CULTURAL RESOURCES
Protected Species
S &ME s consideration of potential protected species habitat began with a review of
existing records obtained from federal and state sources The U S Fish & Wildlife
Service (USFWS) list of federally protected species (updated September 22 2010) was
consulted for a listing of protected species documented within Mecklenburg County
North Carolina This review identified four protected species three plants and one
animal Listed flora and fauna and their federal status are identified in Table 1
Explanations of rankings are included at the end of the table

S &ME completed a field reconnaissance of the project area on February 1 2012 This
effort revealed the project area consists primarily of adjacent residential land and
associated building and parking area with woodland boundaries Wooded canopy is not
the preferred habitat for the plant species of concern and none of the three listed plant
species were observed Based on the level of disturbance the project area was not
considered to provide potential habitat for protected terrestrial species with a likelihood
of occurring in Mecklenburg County
Though the Carolina heelsplitter is listed (historically) for Mecklenburg County the
proposed project involves impacts to approximately 601f of the Franklin Stream
Crossing an unnamed tributary to Stewart Creek and will not impact streams that drain
to known populations of Carolina heelsplitter or its designated critical habitat No
documented occurrences of Carolina heelsplitter are known for Stewart Creek or its
tributaries Accordingly the proposed project is not anticipated to impact this species or
its designated Critical Habitat
A copy of this NWP No 3 courtesy application will be provided to the USFWS
Asheville Field Office
Cultural Resources
A copy of this NWP No 3 application will be provided to the North Carolina State
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) requesting that they review their records regarding
cultural archaeological or historical resources in or near the project area and to provide
written comments regarding the interests of their agency
The proposed project involves permanent impacts to less than 401f of stream at the
Franklin Stream Crossing These impacts have been minimized to the extent practicable
and have been limited to what is necessary to facilitate maintenance activities CMU
proposes to maintain the approximate existing channel dimensions leaving a natural
channel bottom
To prevent sedimentation of downstream portions of Stream 1 and Stream 2 construction
will be conducted in the dry through the use of a temporary berm and pass through pipe

Charlotte Mecklenburg Utilities Raw and Finished Water Line Proiect May 24, 2012
Temporary erosion and sediment control measures placed in waters will be removed and
the original grade restored upon completion of the project
Following construction disturbed areas adjacent to the work site will be restored to
original grade and elevation Appropriate erosion and sediment control practices will be
implemented to meet water quality turbidity standards Best Management Practices
employed for the project will be in compliance with the most recent version of the North
Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual and the local
governing authority Impacts have been avoided and minimized and appropriate
measures will be taken during construction to allow flow and circulation patterns of
waters of the U S to remain unaffected After construction disturbed areas will be
appropriately seeded and restored
The proposed project will not result in additional impervious surface
MITIGATION
Based on conversations with the USACE for similar projects we anticipate that
appropriate mitigation for the proposed project can be satisfied by the avoidance and
minimization procedures implemented during the design phase of the proposed project

Explain the purpose of the proposed project
The purpose of the project is to replace three existing water lines at the Franklin Stream Crossing The stream in this
project area continues to erode and downcut and there is concern about pipe support Also the project is to replace and
support an existing water line at the LaSalle Stream Crossing
3e
Describe the overall project in detail including the type of equipment to be used
Construction at the Franklin Stream Crossing involves the excavation and replacement of 484 If of existing 36 inch
PCCP 304 If of existing 30 inch CIP and 266 If of existing 24 inch CIP Construction involves placement of a minimum of
4 foot cover over the replaced waterline segments and placement of double net coconut blanket on stream banks
Permanent impacts to jurisdictional waters will be limited to placement of approximately 5 If nprapon each side of the
replaced pipe segments within the stream bed at a depth of 1 foot 6 inches pushed into the channel to match existing
contrours in order to limit stream downcutting
Construction at the LaSalle Stream Crossing involves the temporary placement of berm and pass through pipe to be
removed following construction of proposed pipe support installation The pipe support system will either involve two 10
inch mirnpdes or cast in place concrete pipe support system
Equipment likely to be used includes industry standard trackhoes dozers trucks and excavators
