4a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application:*
The Site is currently undeveloped and wooded. Several portions of the Property contain field pine and early successional weeds. Several dilapidated barns and structures are located in
the southwestern portion of the Site. Piles of unused construction materials as well as trash are located along the western property line. A small pond (Pond 2) is located in the southern tip
along Poole Road. Also, a stormwater detention basin is located to the east of Pond 2. This area appears to have been constructed in high ground for the purpose of stormwater treatment
associated with the project Site as well as potentially the partially developed area to the east of the pond. The USACE concurred that this is a non -jurisdictional pond in high ground. The
topography of the Site ranges from a high point in the northwestern corner of the Site of+/- 286 feet above mean sea level (msl), to a low point of +/- 246 feet msl along the pond at the
southern boundary of the Site.
4b. Have Corps permits or DWR certifications been obtained for this project (including all prior phases) in the past? *
Yes No Unknown
4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
0.45
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
425
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: *
To develop a multi -family subdivision (townhomes & apartments) in order to support growing housing needs in the area.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: *
The project is to construct a residential development with necessary internal roads and stormwater devices. There is a stream and wetland complex on the northern side of the Site and a
Pond with wetland on the southern edge of the Site. The stream and wetland to the north are completely avoided as is the pond to the south; however, there is some minor grading into the
wetland area at the upper end of the Pond. Poole Road is required to be widened by the municipality and therefore, there are unavoidable, parallel buffer impacts proposed which will
require compensatory mitigation ("Allowable with Mitigation upon Authorization" per the Neuse River Riparian Buffer rules). Additionally, there are proposed buffer impacts associated with
the proposed SCM device which are "deemed allowable" per the Buffer Rules. The remaining jurisdictional resources on the Site are avoided. Utilities for the proposed project will connect
to existing utility lines adjacent to the Site. Heavy equipment typically used for residential construction (e.g. backhoes, bulldozers, etc.) will be utilized.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations
5a. Have the wetlands or streams been delineated on the property or proposed impact areas?*
Yes
Comments:
No Unknown
The features on the Site were confirmed during a site meeting with Lyle Phillips (USAGE) and Sean
Clark (Sage Ecological Services, Inc.) on January 20, 2022. No official PJD concurrence has been
sent.

drainage conveyances from a Primary SCM, as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .1002, when the Primary SCM is designed to treat the drainage area to the
conveyance and that comply with a stormwater management plan reviewed and approved under a state stormwater program or a state -approved local
government stormwater program are "deemed allowable". Additionally, per 15A NCAC 02B .0714 (11) Table of Uses, (x) Road, driveway or railroad -
impacts other than perpendicular crossings of streams and other surface waters subject to this Rule are "allowable with mitigation upon authorization."
See DMS acceptance letter for necessary compensatory mitigation for unavoidable, parallel, buffer impacts.
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Stream crossings were avoided. Lots were positioned to avoid fill in wetlands, streams, and buffers. Stormwater outfalls were designed to minimize
impacts to riparian areas. Construction fencing will be used to define the construction corridor and prevent any accidental additional impacts. Silt fencing
will be installed to provide additional protection from stormwater runoff.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
General techniques include the use of construction fencing to define the construction corridor and prevent any accidental additional impacts. Equipment
will be parked and cleaned in uplands away from jurisdictional areas. Work within jurisdictional areas will be conducted during periods when dry weather
is predicted, and large bare areas of soil will be reseeded and protected as soon as practicable. Silt fencing and sediment basins will also be used to
prevent sediment runoff into the stream and wetland areas.

In the NCNHP database report dated December 6, 2022, there are no threatened or endangered species on the Site. IPaC lists six T&E species, one
Candidate species, one proposed species and the bald eagle as being potentially present on or near the Site. No habitat for Atlantic Pigtoe, Carolina
madtom, or Dwarf Wedgemussel is present on the site due to the presence of pond dams on the Site and just north of the Site preventing aquatic life
passage. Habitat for the monarch butterfly and Michaux's sumac is present on the Site. Suitable foraging habitat for bald eagle is present within 1.0 mile
of the site; however, no evidence of bald eagles was present on the Site.
6. Essential Fish Habitat (Corps Requirement)
6a. Will this project occur in or near an area designated as an Essential Fish Habitat?*
Yes No
6b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact an Essential Fish Habitat? *
This project is within Wake County which is not one of the twenty Coastal Counties and therefore, does not support habitat for EFH.

Re: Elevate Riverview
Request for NWP 18, GC 4249, and Neuse Riparian Buffer Authorization
Sage Project #2020.093
On behalf of Signature Hodge Road, LLC Attn: Mr. Craig Taylor (owner and applicant), please find attached a
complete application and supplemental information requesting written concurrence from the US Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) that the activities associated with the proposed development of the Elevate Riverview
(Project) may proceed under Nationwide Permit (NWP) 18, General Certification 4249 (GC 4249), and Neuse
Riparian Buffer Authorization
Protect Purpose and Location
The Project includes the construction of a residential townhome & apartment subdivision. The +/-26.84-acre tract
is located at +/-1,200-feet west of the Hodge Road and Poole Road intersection in Knightdale, Wake County,
NC. The coordinates of 35.7561 °N, 78.5218°W generally correspond to the center of the Site.
Project Detail
The proposed Project consists of the construction of a townhome & apartment development with associated
driveways, utilities, and roads. Municipal sewer and water are available to the Site.
Access to the Site will be provided via Poole Road to the south. Heavy equipment typically used for utility
installation projects (e.g., backhoes, bulldozers, etc.) will be utilized.
No federally threatened or endangered species are listed to occur on the Site according to the NC Natural
Heritage Program (NCNHP) Database (dated December 6, 2022).
The Site itself is not listed as a historic property. There are twenty-two historic properties located within 0.5 mile
of the Site based on a query of the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (NCSHPO) database.
Eighteen are designated as Surveyed Only Property, two are designated as "Surveyed Only Property - Gone,
and two are designated as Blockface - Multiple Properties. Figure 4 depicts the locations of these properties in
relation to the Site.
Protect History
The Site is currently undeveloped and wooded. Several portions of the Property contain field pine and early
successional weeds. Several dilapidated barns and structures are located in the southwestern portion of the Site.
Piles of unused construction materials as well as trash are located along the western property line. A small pond
is located in the southern tip along Poole Road.
Avoidance and Minimization
Stream crossings were avoided. Lots were positioned to avoid fill in wetlands, streams, and buffers. Stormwater
outfalls were designed to minimize impacts to riparian areas. Construction fencing will be used to define the
Elevate Riverview Page 1 of 2

construction corridor and prevent any accidental additional impacts. Silt fencing will be installed to provide
additional protection from stormwater runoff.
Project Impacts
Of the 0.45-acre of wetland on the Site, the proposed road crossing will result in 0.03 acre of permanent wetland
impact and 0.023 acre of temporary wetland impact. Of the 425 liner feet of stream on the Site, there are no
permanent stream or open water impacts proposed. Permanent riparian buffer impacts total 2,155 square feet in
Zone 1 and 6,530 square feet in Zone 2 for the proposed road crossing and installation of drainage conveyances.
No other impacts are proposed.
Mitigation
Permanent wetland impacts total 0.05 acre and no permanent stream impacts, therefore, no compensatory
mitigation is required. Riparian buffer impacts are either "Deemed Allowable" or "Allowable Upon Authorization
With Mitigation". 2,592 Zone 1 buffer mitigation is required for non -perpendicular impacts. 3,345 square feet of
Zone 2 buffer mitigation is required for non -perpendicular impacts. Total required buffer mitigation is 5,937 square
feet. See attached DMS acceptance letter for the compensatory buffer mitigation.

RE: Elevate Riverview SD; 2020.093
Dear Kim Hamlin:
❑. Reid Wilson, Secretary
Misty Buchanan
Deputy Director, Natural Heritage Program
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide
information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
Based on the project area mapped with your request, a query of the NCNHP database indicates that
there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or
conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there
may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not
imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query
should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare
species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our
records.
The attached `Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that
have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these
records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area
if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mile
radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report.
If a Federally -listed species is found within the project area or is indicated within a one -mile radius of
the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for
guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here:
httr)s://www.fws.gov/offices/Directory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation
planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria
for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published
without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information
source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission.
The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a
Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Land and Water Fund easement, or Federally -
listed species are documented near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance,
please contact Rodney A. Butler at rod ney.butler�ncdcr.gov or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program

Wake County, North Carolina and/or the most recent copy of the USGS Topographic map at a 1:24,000
scale. Each stream that is checked "Not Subject" has been determined to not be at least intermittent or is
not present. Streams that are checked "Subject" have been located on the property and possess
characteristics that qualify it to be at least an intermittent stream. There may be other streams located on
the property that do not show up on the maps referenced above but may be considered jurisdictional
according to the US Army Corps of Engineers.

Expiration of Acceptance: 6/6/2023
County: Wake
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the NCDEQ Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) is willing to
accept payment for compensatory mitigation for impacts associated with the above referenced project as
indicated in the table below. Please note that this decision does not assure that participation in the DMS in -
lieu fee mitigation program will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts.
It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact permitting agencies to determine if payment to the DMS will
be approved. You must also comply with all other state, federal or local government permits, regulations or
authorizations associated with the proposed activity including G.S. § 143-214.11.
This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not
received a copy of the issued 404 Permit/401 Certification within this time frame, this acceptance will
expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to DMS. Once DMS receives a copy
of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must
be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the in -lieu fee to be paid by an applicant is
calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed on the DMS website.
Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the DMS, the impacts for which you are
requesting compensatory mitigation credit are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation
required and assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may exceed the
impact amounts shown below.

15A NCAC 02B .0295 as applicable. Thank you for your interest in the DMS in -lieu fee mitigation program.
