Based on the information supplied by you on April 22, 2021, the impacts are located in CU 03030003 of the Cape Fear River basin (Randleman) in the Central Piedmont (CP) Eco-Region, and are as follows: Cape Fear 03030003 Randleman Stream Wetlands Buffer (Sq. Ft.) Cold Cool Warm Riparian Non- Riparian Coastal Marsh Zone 1 Zone 2 Impacts (feet/acres) 0 0 205.0 0 0 0 10,350.0 6,148.0 All buffer mitigation requests and approvals are administrated through the Riparian Restoration Buffer Fund. The NCDOT will be responsible to ensure that appropriate compensation for the buffer mitigation will be provided in the agreed upon method of fund transfer. Upon receipt of the NCDWR’s Buffer Authorization Certification, DMS will transfer funds from the NCDOT 2984 Fund into the Riparian Restoration Buffer Fund. Upon completion of transfer payment, NCDOT will have completed its riparian buffer mitigation responsibility for this project. This mitigation acceptance letter replaces the mitigation acceptance letter issued on April 21, 2021. The impacts and associated mitigation needs were not projected by the NCDOT in the 2021 impact projection data. DMS commits to implementing sufficient stream mitigation credits to offset the impacts associated with this project as determined by the regulatory agencies in accordance with the In-Lieu Fee Instrument dated July 28, 2010. If the above referenced impact amounts are revised, then this mitigation acceptance letter will no longer be valid and a new mitigation acceptance letter will be required from DMS.
