Division 5 Project, Improvements to SR 1838 / SR 2220 from US 15-501 in
Orange County to SR 1116 in Durham County (TIP EB-4707A/B), Orange and
Durham Counties
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the NCDEQ Division of Mitigation Services
(NCDEQ DMS) will provide the stream, wetland and buffer mitigation for the subject project. Based on
the information supplied by you on January 7, 2016, the impacts are located in CU 03030002 of the Cape
Fear River basin in the Central Piedmont (CP) Eco-Region, and are as follows:
Stream Wetlands
Stream and River CU Eca-
Wetlands Basin Location Region Cold Cool Warm Riparian Non- Caastal
Riparian Marsh
Impacts Cape 03030002 CP d 0 95.0 0.06 0 0
Fear (Haw Arm)
*Some of the stream impacts may be praposed ta be mitigated at a 1:1 mitigation ratio. See permit application for details.
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, NCDEQ 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. Subsequently, NCDEQ DMS will
conduct a review of current NCDOT ILF Program mitigation projects in the river basin to determine if
available buffer mitigation credits exist. If there are buffer mitigation credits available, then the Riparian
Restoration Buffer Fund will purchase the appropriate amount of buffer mitigation credits from NCDOT
ILF Program.
