4. Project Description and History
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 project is an existing crossing of S Broad Street East and Hidden Acres Estates access drive over an unnamed tributary to the Black River. The stream passes under both streets just
south of their junction (Figure 1).The vicinity of the project is single and multi -family residential and wooded land, along with commercial development upstream.
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
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
182
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: *
The stream overtops both S Broad Street East and Hidden Acres Estates access drive on a regular basis, and also is causing erosion at the roadside and flooding in adjacent properties.
The project will realign the current Y junction of the two roads so that Hidden Acres Estates T's into S Broad Street East. The two existing crossings (2 60"x46" corrugated metal arch pipes
and 2 48" reinforced concrete pipes) would be removed, and replaced with one 6' high by 16' wide 44-ft long reinforced concrete box culvert.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: *
The project will entail a re -alignment of S Broad Street and Hidden Acres Estate roads to form a T-junction with one stream crossing under the former. The construction sequence will be
five phases as described in the attached cover letter.
In conjunction with the proposed work, debris upstream to Raleigh Road will be cleared (Figure 5), and the dense brush will be removed by hand to prevent logjams and flooding of
adjacent residential properties. No equipment or work in the water is proposed in this segment of stream above the project area shown in the attached engineering plans and figures.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations
5a. Have the wetlands or streams been delineated on the property or proposed impact areas?*
Yes No C Unknown
Comments:
Site was inspected for wetlands on 5/31/24. Stream SA is the only potential WOTUS present
5b. If the Corps made a jurisdictional determination, what type of determination was made?
Preliminary Approved Not Verified Unknown N/A
Corps AID Number:
5c. If 5a is yes, who delineated the jurisdictional areas?

6. Future Project Plans
6a. Is this a phased project?*
Yes

No
Are any other NWP(s), regional general permit(s), or individual permits(s) used, or intended to be used, to authorize any part of the proposed project or related activity?
The proposed work addresses the issues at the stream crossings and alleviates future drainage issues. While this project is part of an overall basin assessment to alleviate
flooding/stormwater issues, the flood mitigation measure is a stand-alone project to address localized flooding and functions separately from any other measures that may be proposed at
other locations.

3i. Total stream and ditch impacts:
182
31. Total temporary stream impacts:
10
3j. Comments:
Note that approximately 70 linear feet of stream currently in pipes/culverts will be daylighted as part of the reduction from two to one stream crossing.
The only permanent loss of Waters of the US is 14 linear feet of fill at the outlet end of the new culvert.
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:
The proposed design provides adequately sized culvert under the realigned S Broad St East, and removes a second crossing under Hidden Acres
Estates. Armoring of the banks is proposed to ensure future stability as this stream drains a significant portion of downtown Angier. A majority of the
current banks are unstable.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Construction will occur in a sequence that allows culvert removal and installation and stream relocation to occur in the dry as described in the cover
letter. Sediment and erosion control measures will be installed, monitored and maintained throughout construction in compliance with the NPDES permit
for construction activities.
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:
The proposed project does not result in a permanent net loss of stream. The only proposed permanent loss is 14 linear feet at the outlet end of the new culvert. The overall 182 linear feet
of existing stream channel within the project area, much of which is already degraded with unstable banks, will be replaced by a total of 245 linear feet of channel including existing
stabilized channel and relocated segment.
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
la. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?
Yes No
If no, explain why:
The project is in the Cape Fear River Basin below Jordan Lake. Therefore no riparian buffer rules are in effect.
2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOT's Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?'�
Yes No
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?
Yes
N/A - project disturbs < 1 acre
No
Comments:
No additional impervious surface is proposed for the project and the net change in impervious is a decrease. No SMP is required and current discharges are being stabilized and routed to
the new channel.
