Re: Progress Energy Carolinas
Franklinton 115kV Substation Expansion
Franklin County, North Carolina
401 Water Quality Certification
Dear Ms. Higgins,
We have enclosed the Pre -Construction Notification (PCN) for the above referenced project.
The PCN includes the required form, supplemental information and construction site plan.
Additional information which may not be provided in the form is included in this cover letter.
The proposed project will expand an existing substation site to accommodate "looping" of the
adjacent transmission line into the substation. Two (2) circuit breakers and a line trap will be
added within the fenced area of the substation facility. The minor expansion (20' south and 30'
north) is required in this area of the site due to existing infrastructure and overhead lines,
limiting available area for the additional equipment. Every effort has been made to minimize the
project expansion footprint.
The project area was delineated for wetlands and streams in February 2012 by Environmental
Services, Inc. (Mr. Jeff Harbour). The February 15, 2012 site meeting with IJSACOE, DWQ,
ESI and Progress Energy representatives confirmed the jurisdictional areas, including the
segments of stream channel which are subject to the Tar -Pamlico buffer rules.
Due to the limited area and physical site constraints, the following impacts are proposed:
0.012 acres wetland impact (permanent due to placement of fill)
60 linear feet of "unbuffered" stream impact (due to placement of fill and channel
relocation)
410 square feet of Zone 2 Riparian Buffer impact (temporary disturbance to be re -
vegetated)
Progress Energy Carolinas, Inc.
P.O. Box 1551
Halaigh, NE 211302
We trust the enclosed information is complete and will allow you to issue approval at an early
date. Should you have any questions or require additional information please do not hesitate to
contact our office.
Sincerely,
�` `"r

3. Project Description
3a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
Existing site is electric substation. Site is bounded by road, overhead transmission line and undeveloped wooded space
from nearest residences..
3b. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
Less than 0.5 acre
3c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:

3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The project is an expansion of an existing substation to accommodate "looping" of the adjacent transmission line into the
substation. Two circuit breakers and a line trap will be added.

The project involves a minor expansion of fencing to the north and south, on the western side of the existing substation to
allow the addition of the circuit breakers. Because of existing infrastructure and overhead lines, the expansion can only
occur at these location of the property. Every effort has been made to reduce the project footprint.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
Progress Energy has minimized the footprint of the expansion to the extent possible. However, the existing substation
infrastructure largely dictates the alignment and location of the proposed additional circuit breakers and line trap.

Expansion was limited to minimal amount consistent with safe engineering standards and operation practices.

Franklinton 115kV Substation, Franklin County, NC
ESI is respectfully requesting a riparian buffer determination for a +/- 5 acre site located on
Pocomoke Road in Franklinton, NC. The site is currently a 115kV substation owned and
operated by Progress Energy. The Soil Survey of Franklin County, NC depicts one stream
feature as originating near the southern property line of the site. We would like for NCDWQ to
review this feature to determine if a riparian buffer is applicable.
I have enclosed copies of the USGS quad, soil survey map, aerial photograph, and the NCDWQ
stream ID forms.

Wetland Delineations
Wake County, North Carolina
1.0 Purpose
The Catena Group (TCG) was contracted by Mr. Elie Batouli to conduct wetland
delineations on the 3.01-acre St. Maron Church parcel located at 909 Church Street (SR
1637) in Morrisville, Wake County, North Carolina. The purpose of this investigation
was to determine the location and extent of wetlands subject to protection under Section
404 of the Clean Water Act.
2.0 Project Description
The project study area is located between Church Street on the east and Barbee Road on
the west. The site is mostly wooded and there is an overgrown pond in the approximate
middle of the site.
3.0 Methodologies
Research was conducted prior to field investigations. Information sources used in pre -
field investigations were the Natural Resources Conservation Service (MRCS - formally
SCS) soils map of Wake County (sheet 36) and the US Geologic Survey (USGS)
quadrangle map (Cary). TCG conducted the field investigations on January 13 and April
23, 2010. All drainage features and potential wetland areas were evaluated to determine
if they met the criteria for jurisdictional wetland status.
Jurisdictional delineations were performed using the three -parameter approach as
prescribed in the 1987 US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetlands Delineation
Manual (Environmental Laboratory 1987). The Draft Interim Regional Supplement for
Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Region describing the parameters of hydrophytic
vegetation, hydric soils, and hydrological indicators was also utilized. The USACE
wetland determination form -Eastern Mountains and Piedmont (DRAFT) was completed
for the wetland system (Appendix II).
Wetland boundaries were marked with pink and black striped flagging. All flags were
surveyed using a hand-held GPS unit with sub -meter accuracy.
4.0 Qualification of Investigators
The representatives of TCG conducting this investigation were Chris Sheats and Michael
Wood. Mr. Sheats is a project manager for TCG with seven years of experience
conducting natural resource investigations. His experience includes wetland and stream
mitigation, jurisdictional wetland and stream delineations, environmental permitting,
threatened and endangered species surveys, natural systems assessments, stream
classifications, and graphics mapping. Michael Wood has nineteen years of experience in
St. Maron's Church May 2010
TCG Job #2144
>ho
the environmental field. He is a North Carolina Licensed Soil Scientist (NCLSS) and has
experience mapping and delineating soils for a variety of purposes. In addition, he has
experience in jurisdictional wetland and stream delineations, stream identification, and
GIS mapping and analysis.
5.0 Results
5.1 Jurisdictional Wetlands
One jurisdictional wetland was delineated with flags numbered 1-12. The wetland
surrounds the pond. There is also an upland dike within the wetland. The approximate
areas of each of feature are as follows and also noted on Figure 1:
Wetland = 0.38 acre
Pond = 0.05 acre
Upland dike = 0.04 acre
The soil in the wetland meets field indicator F3 as noted in the Field Indicators of Hydric
Soils in the United States (USDA, NRCS 2003), which states:
F3. Depleted Matrix. A layer that has a depleted matrix with 60 percent
or more chroma of 2 or less and has a minimum thickness of either:
a.) 2 inches entirely within the uppers 6 inches of the soil surface
MR
b.) 6 inches starting with 10 inches of the soil surface
6.0 Summary
This report is provided for preliminary planning purposes only. One wetland was noted
and delineated / located in the project study area. It is the opinion of TCG that this
features are regulated by the either/or the USACE or NCD WQ under Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act. The jurisdictional determination will need to be verified by the
regulatory agency prior to obtaining permits to impact any jurisdictional features. Any
concurrence with the results of this investigation will be made at that time.
