Home My WebLink AboutRE_ I-3306 A - Mitigation Confirmation (3)Carpenter, Kristi From: Conchilla, Ryan Sent: Monday, August 15, 2022 10:58 AM To: Turchy, Michael A Subject: RE: 1-3306 A - Mitigation Confirmation Good morning Michael, I'm following up on the email below. If you can provide clarification on mitigation by Thursday (8/18) it would be appreciated. The application is approaching the deadline for the response period.

David Bailey sent me a mitigation question, but I could not get his numbers to work, so I'd like to talk though it with him to verify there's no error on the mitigation numbers. I'll reach back out to you in a day or two when Dave and I have a chance to verify everything.

I'm finalizing the Permitting Conditions for this project and writing for confirmation regarding the wetland and buffer impacts and the corresponding mitigation. Can you confirm the credits and impact totals secured through DMS and private banks listed below are accurate? Compensatory mitigation for impacts to 0.20 acres of wetlands is required. We understand that you have chosen to perform compensatory mitigation for impacts to wetlands through the North Carolina Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) (formerly NCEEP), and that the DMS has agreed to implement the mitigation for the project. DMS has indicated in a letter dated June 21, 2022 that they will assume responsibility for satisfying the federal Clean Water Act compensatory mitigation requirements for the above -referenced project, in accordance with DMS's Mitigation Banking Instrument signed July 28, 2010. 2. Compensatory mitigation of 0.33 acres for the approved wetland impacts shall be required. We understand that you have chosen to perform compensatory mitigation for impacts to protected wetlands through purchase of 0.33 Mitigation credits from the Pancho Wetland Mitigation Bank, operated by EBX. Mitigation for unavoidable impacts to wetlands shall be provided in the Cape Fear River Basin and done in accordance with [15A NCAC 2H.0506(h)]. The mitigation bank has indicated in a letter dated February 21, 2018 that they have available credits for satisfying the compensatory mitigation requirements for the above -referenced project. No impacts to wetlands can occur until NC Division of Water Resources receives a copy of payment receipt for these credits purchased from the wetland Mitigation Bank. 3. Compensatory mitigation for impacts to 571 square feet of protected riparian buffers in Zone 1 shall be required. We understand that you have chosen to perform compensatory mitigation for impacts to protected buffers through use of the North Carolina Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) (formerly NCEEP). Mitigation for unavoidable impacts to Neuse River Riparian Buffers shall be provided in the Neuse (Upper Falls Lake) River Basin and done in accordance with 15A NCAC .02B .0714. The DMS has indicated in a letter dated June 22, 2022 that they will assume responsibility for satisfying the compensatory mitigation requirements for the above -referenced project, in accordance with DMS's Mitigation Banking Instrument signed June 14, 2016.

E.Bailey2@usace.army.mil; Conchilla, Ryan <ryan.conchilla@ncdenr.gov> Subject: 1-3306 A Stream Typo Noted Dave & Ryan - While working through the PBO payment summary, we noted a typo in the permit application that actually goes back to the NRTR and JD. Streams SK and SJ were labeled "UT to New Hope Creek". They should actually be "UT to Stony Creek." This is a name change only. The HUC is correct, the impacts, and the mitigation values are correct.
