E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
4g. Total permanent open water impacts:
0.05
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Jurisdictional waters were avoided and impacts were minimized to the extent feasible. The proposed stream impact is unavoidable due to the location
and orientation of the stream that crosses the southeastern portion of the site. The drainage feature that is proposed to be crossed bisects the property
from Wesley Chapel Road, so in order to access the property from Wesley Chapel Road, it must be crossed. An unimproved road has provided access
to the property in the past. Due to little water flow in the drainage feature, the existing crossing is a ford at grade. In an effort to minimize impacts, the
applicant proposes to use the existing crossing and cross perpendicular to the stream.
The existing pond has been mostly avoided; a small area along the edge of the pond must be graded to allow the proper configuration of the stormater
detention pond.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
The majority of the onsite waters were avoided by the proposed project.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State
2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
Yes No
2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why:
<150 lin ft of stream impact, <0.1 acre of wetlands/open water impact.
O
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)

1. Diffuse Flow Plan
1a. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?

Please see the attached Stormwater SCM Calculations
2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOT's Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?

2b. Does this project meet the requirements for low density projects as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .1003(2)?
Yes No
2c. Does this project have a stormwater management plan (SMP) reviewed and approved under a state stormwater program or state -approved local government stormwater program?
