Wilson, P.E. of Cardno ATC visited the site observed the entire site and the low lying areas. A determination was made of the streams and wetlands in accordance with the following methods: • Wetlands for 404 Permitting - A determination was made of the wetlands based on the Corps of Engineers (COE) 1987 Wetlands Manual using the routine method which is the currently and the Regional Supplement for the Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Version 2.0, April 2012. • Streams for 404 Permitting by the (COE) - A determination was made of the streams based on our experience with the most recent methodology used by the US Army Corp of Engineers. • Streams for 401 Permitting and Determination of Stream Delineation by NCDENR- A determination was made of the streams using the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) stream determination form method. The site is located in the drainage area of an unnamed tributary to Ramah Creek which drains into in the Rocky River in the Pee Dee River Basin. The site is shown as having a stream on both the Cornelius, NC 7.5 Minute USGS quadrangle and the USDA Soil Survey (see attached maps). STREAM EVALUATION. Based on the literature review and the site investigation the stream noted on the southern portion of the site is a perennial stream. Wetlands and Stream Determination Shopping Center Site Huntersville, North Carolina Ramah Creek/Rocky River /Pee Dee River Basin August 15, 2013 WETLANDS EVALUATION: The investigation of the lowlands adjacent to the stream at the site indicate that conditions at the site do not support a determination of wetlands except for the stream area bank to bank. In addition, linear wetlands were noted in the ephemeral channels at the site. See Attached maps for location of data points soil maps etc. The proposed construction at the site will require minimal permanent impacts for the placement of culverts and Rip Rap for the development of the shopping center and connector roadway required by Mecklenburg County. A summary of features at the site is included in the tables below: Wetlands and Streams on Site Subject to 404 Permitting by COE Feature Amount (Approximate) Description Notes Wetlands 0.051 Acres Stream Bank to Bank Perennial Wetlands 0.034 Acres Linear Wetlands The bottom of the ephemera; streams. Streams - Perennial 649 linear ft Flow year round 6 feet deep head cut the year begins stream Streams Intermittent 0 linear ft Only flow for part of None Streams - Ephemeral NA the year NA Only flow during These are mentioned Streams - Ephemeral 721 linear ft rainfall and dry up quickly after event is on the 404 permit but ast. are not permitted. Streams and Buffers on Site Subject to 401 Permit by Mecklenberg Co /NCDWQ Feature Amount (Approximate) Description Notes Stream Streams - Perennial 243 linear ft Flow year round approximately 6 feet bank to bank Streams Intermittent 0 linear ft Only flow for part of No Intermittent on the year site or within 100 ft Only flow during Streams - Ephemeral NA rainfall and dry up quickly after event is NA past. *Rocky River /Pee Dee River Basin 2 Wetlands and Stream Determination Shopping Center Site Huntersville, North Carolina Ramah Creek/Rocky River /Pee Dee River Basin August 15, 2013 Based on preliminary plans for development of the site we anticipate that avoidance and minimization can be achieved by using retaining walls and carefully placing the buildings. This will keep impacts to the stream at the site to less than 250 feet and impacts to wetlands at the site at less than 0.10 acres. Maps with approximate locations of the wetlands and streams on the site and the stream point and data point locations are enclosed with this letter. A site visit to verify the determinations will be required by USACE, Mecklenburg County and possibly NCDENR. Prior to the site visits an agent authorization form will be required. An agent authorization form is attached that should be executed by the owner.
