RE Kingfish Bay Calabash NC
USACOE Action ID Number SAW 2006 20 / NC DWQ Project No 07 0587
Dear Emily and Ian
On behalf of Real Property Holding Brunswick County NC LLC I am submitting a request for a
Nationwide Permit #14 and Water Quality General Certification 3886 for Kingfish Bay Calabash NC A
NWP 14 and the associated Water Quality Certification was originally issued to Wakefield Development
under Action ID number 2002 20 and DWQ Project No 07 0587 These permits authorized 0 246 acre of
wetland impact for construction of subdivision roads needed to access upland areas within the planned
residential development The NWP permit was issued on July 19 2007 and was set to expire on July 19
2010 During the life of the permit the property was assumed by the lender and is now held by their
company Real Property Holding Brunswick County NC LLC in July 2010 the permit was extended to
March 18 2012 at which time the permit was set to expire with the Nationwide Permit re authorizations
Due to the economic environment development of the subdivision was only partially completed including
the roads which have been partially cut and graded but not completed The current owner would like to
retain the ability to develop the subdivision as previously approved while they determine how to best
proceed with development of the subdivision There are no requested changes to the site plan or the
associated impacts from that of the previously approved plan Each road crossing for which wetland
impacts were approved provided access to upland areas of the subdivision that would otherwise be
inaccessible Design features such as the use of retaining walls will minimize wetland impact where
relatively steep changes in grade would have required large fill slopes There are no apparent revisions to
the recently reauthorized NWP 14 or the updated GC 3886 that would affect this project or the previously
approved impacts It is noted that the previous owner Wakefield Development satisfied the wetland
restoration requirement and payment was made to the NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program
Conservation of the remaining balance of wetlands was part of the formerly approved mitigation plan and is
proposed with this renewal (preliminary conservation map enclosed)
The jurisdictional determination (JD) for the property was also renewed in July 2010 and has an expiration
date matching that of the associated permit It is requested that the JD be renewed along with this current
permit application
The mailing address for the current owners is Cleveland Ohio (see agent authorization form) but it is
requested that copies all correspondence be sent to their local representative

Impact Justification and Mitigation
1
Avoidance and Minimization
1a
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project
The 404 wetlands divide the property into three upland sections one to the north one to the southeast and one
to the southwest Impact 1 has been minimized by utilizing an existing crossing at that location and could not be
avoided because it is the main subdivision thoroughfare Impact 2 has been minimized by crossing the wetlands at
an existing dirt road which needed to be improved to provide access to an upland island Impact 3 is necessary to
access the southeast upland island and has been minimized by crossing at a narrow portion of the wetland
Impact 4 is necessary to access a nearly disconnected upland area on the west side of the property
1 b
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques
Due to a relatively large topographic change between wetland and upland at two of the wetland impact sites retaining
walls will be used in lieu of fill side slopes which greatly reduces the impact area

❑ Potentially Jurisdictional waters and /or wetlands were asserted "ithin the review area and deteninned to be not jurisdictional
Explain
BOXIS checked blow shall be supported by conipleun, the appiopi late sections in Section III below
Foi purposes of this form an RPW is defined as a tril utary that is not a TNW and that typically (lows ycai sound of has continuous flow at least seasonally
(e € typically 3 months)
Suppoitm, documentation is piescntLd in Section III F
SECTION 111 CW k ANALI SIS
A TNNN's AND V1 ETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs
The agencies -4 ill assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs If the aquatic resource is a TNO1 complete
Section iii A I and Section III D 1 only if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW complete Sections III A 1 and 2
and Section III D 1 otherwise see Section III B below
1 TNW
Identify TNW Calabash River
Summarize rationale supporting determination The Calabash River is Section 10 Waters with a federally maintained channel
located just downstream of this property
2 Wetland adjacent to TNW
Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is adjacent Semi diurnal coastal marsh fringes the Calabash River
along the southern property boundary and is adjacent to the TNW by definition of a fringing wetland Non coastal marsh wetland is located
just landward of coastal marsh but is still adjacent to the marsh and to the Calabash River
B CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY) PIN
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands if any and it
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are relatively permE
,Aaters (RPWs) i e tributaries that typically flow year round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e g typically
months) A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional If the aquatic resource is not a TNW but has year
(perennial) flow skip to Section III D 2 If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial
skip to Section III D 4
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation Corps d►st lets and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus bet een a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law
If the waterbody4 is not an RPW or a wetland directly abutting an RPW a JD will require additional data to determ►n ►f the
Haterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW If the tributary has adjacent wetlands the significant nexus evaluation ust
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands This significant nexus evaluation that combines for
analytical purposes the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD r quest is
the tributary or its adjacent wetlands or both If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands complete Section 1.1 B 1 for
the tributary Section Ill B 2 for any onsite wetlands and Section ill B 3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary b h onsite
and offsite The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III C below

For each wetland specify the following
Directly abuts9 (Y/N) Size (in acres) Directly abuts9 (Y /NJ Size i acres
Summarize overall biological chemical and physical functions being performed
C SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical phi sical and biological integrity
of a TNW For each of the following situations a significant nexus exists if the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical phi sical and /or biological integrity of a TNW
Considerations when e%aluatmg significant nexus include but are not limited to the volume duration and frequency of the flow
of Hater in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e g between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNV1) Similarly the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook Factors to consider include for example
Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW?
Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and
other species such as feeding nesting spawning or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW?
Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs?
Does the tributary in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any) have other relationships to the physical chemical or
biological integrity of the TNW?
Note the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below
1 Significant nexus findings for non RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs Explain
findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below based on the tributary itself then go to Section III D
2 Significant nexus findings for non RPW and its adjacent wetlands where the non RPW flows directly or indirectly into
TNWs Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below based on the tributary in combination with all of its
adjacent wetlands then go to Section III D
3 Significant nexus findings for wetlands adjacent to an RPW but that do not directly abut the RPW Explain findings of
presence or absence of significant nexus below based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands then go to
