We are also requesting 401 Certification and Buffer Compliance from the NC-DWQ for the impacts to a stream and riparian buffers. The subject property is approximately 148 acres in size and is located on the east and west side of Hwy 55, approximately 250o ft northwest of the intersection of Wade Nash Road (SR 1113) and Hwy 55 in Fuquay-Varina, Wake County, North Carolina at Latitude: 35.6262765°N and Longitude: 78.8132158°W. The site contains unnamed tributaries to Basal Creek and is located in the Neuse River Basin. The Water Quality Classification for these features is: B; NSW, the Cataloging Unit for this site is: 03020201, and the Stream Index number is: 27-43-15-3• Project History Wetlands were delineated by Withers & Ravenel during March 2007. Site meetings were conducted with the NC-DWQ on March 9, 2007 (NBRRO o7-028) and the USACE on October 30, 2007 to verify stream origin points and wetland boundaries. On October 17, 2007 sign-off maps were submitted to the USACE for approval. A copy of the buffer letter is included with the attachments. In addition, a copy of the dam rehabilitation plan was submitted to NC-DWQ for their comments. The NC-DWQ determined that impacts to the stream during dam reconstruction will be considered temporary. Proposed Impacts The proposed permanent impacts consist of 147 linear feet of perennial/important stream channel and o.326 acres of riparian buffer for a road crossing. Approximately 0.05 acres of wetlands and 49 linear feet of perennial channel will be temporarily impacted for dam re-habilitation to meet dam safety specifications. The impacts are summarized on the overall impact map as well as the PCN form. iii MacKenan Drive i Cary, NC z75ii i tel: 919.469.3340 i fax: 919.467.6008 i www.withersravenel.com 7040 Wrightsville Avenue i Suite 101 i Wilmington, NC z84o3 i tel: 9io.z56.9z77 i fax: 91o.z56.z584 1027 Sabbath Home Rd, SW i Supply, NC z846z i tel: 91o.84z•939z i fax: 91o.84z.8o19 Avoidance and Minimization Prior to site plan development, the applicant requested that a detailed wetland delineation be conducted so that impacts to wetlands and `waters' could be minimized. A stream channel bi-sects the property, and in order to access high ground, impacts were unavoidable. Impacts were minimized by crossing the channel at a nearly perpendicular angle and through the use of headwalls. In addition, the road was tapered from 4 lanes to 2 lanes, at the crossing, to further reduce the impacts. stormwater Management Plan The proposed impervious for this project is expected to exceed 24%; however, the stormwater plans have not been finalized at this time. Multiple areas have been set aside for the installation of BMP's and constructed wetlands. We request that the NC-DWQ approve this permit application, with the condition that impacts will not occur until the stormwater plan has been submitted and approved by your office. Mitigation Because impacts to perennial channels are less than i5o linear feet, wetland impacts are less than o.s acres, and riparian buffer impacts are less than i/3 acre, mitigation is not proposed for this project. Please feel free to call if you have questions or require additional information.

Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application: The site is approximately 75% forested and 25% agricultural fields. A small residential community is located to the north, NC HWY 55 is located to the west and Basal Creek borders the nroperty to the east. 10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The overall includes the construction of a residential community. In addition, a dam will be rehabilitated to ensure that it meets the dam safety act. Large grading equipment will be used Page 2 of 8 to install the infrastructure (i.e. roads, sewer, BMP's) and prepare the site for the construction of residential homes and apartments. 11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The purpose of this work is to meet the demand for single family homes in the surrounding area. IV. Prior Project History If jurisdictional determinations and/or permits have been requested and/or obtained for this project (including all prior phases of the same subdivision) in the past, please explain. Include the USACE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits, certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project, list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.I.P. project, along with construction schedules. Wetlands were delineated by Withers & Ravenel during March 2007. Site meetings were conducted with the NC-DWQ on March 9, 2007 (NBRRO 07-028 and the USACE on October 30, 2007 to verify stream origin points and our wetland delineatrion. On October 17, 2007 sign-off maps were submitted to the USACE for approval. In addition, a copy of the the dam rehabilitation plan was submitted to NC-DWQ for their comments. The NC- DWQ determined that impacts to the stream during dam reconstruction will be considered temporary. V. Future Project Plans Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work, and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application. This is a single and complete project with no additional phases proposed at this time. However, there is a thoroughfare that bisects the site. The proposed alignment was designed such that it terminates at a point that will minimize future impacts. The Town of Fuquay will be responsible for permitting any future impacts needed to complete this road. As presently designed, the stream crossing within the property boundary tapers from a 4-lane road to a 2-lane road, to minimize impacts. The culverts at this crossing may need to be extended to accommodate future traffic volumes. If the road needs to be widened, the Town of Fuquay will be the applicant. VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. Ali proposed impacts, permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate. Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for Page 3 of 8 wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet. 1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: The proposed permanent impacts consist of 147 linear feet of perennial/important stream channel and 0.326 acres of riparian buffer for a road crossing. Approximately 0.05 acres of wetlands and 49 linear feet of perennial channel will be temporarily impacted for dam re-habilitation to meet dam safety specifications. 2. Individually list wetland impacts. Types of impacts include, but are not limited to mechanized clearing, grading, fill, excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams, separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding.

Isolated Waters Do any isolated waters exist on the property? ^ Yes ®No Describe all impacts to isolated waters, and include the type of water (wetland or stream) and the size of the proposed impact (acres or linear feet). Please note that this section only applies to waters that have specifically been determined to be isolated by the USACE. 8. Pond Creation If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application. Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ^ uplands ^ stream ^ wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): NA Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): NA Current land use in the vicinity of the pond: NA Size of watershed draining to pond: NA Expected pond surface area: NA VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and fmancial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. Prior to site plan development, the annlicant requested that a detailed wetland delineation be conducted so that impacts to wetlands and `waters' could be minimized. A stream channel bi-sects the property, and in order to access high ground, impacts were unavoidable. Impacts were minimized by crossing the channel at a nearly perpendicular angle and through the use of headwalls. In addition, the road was tapered from 4 lanes to 21anes, at the crossing, to further reduce the impacts. VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when Page 5 of 8 necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html. 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. Because impacts to perennial channels are less than 1501inear feet, wetland impacts are less than 0.1 acre, and riparian buffer impacts are less than 1/3 acre, mitigation is not proposed. In addition, the applicant~roposes to preserve the remaining 9 acres of wetlands to offset the wetland impacts needed to re-habilitate the dam. 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page five and provide the following information: Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): NA Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): NA Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA Amount ofNon-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ) 1. Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state/local) funds or the use of public (federal/state) land? Yes ^ No Page 6 of 8 2. If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)? Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA coordinator at (919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation. Yes ^ No ^ X. 3. If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ^ No ^ Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ) It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the applicant's discretion. 1. Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 02B .0243 (Catawba) 1 SA NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )? Yes ® No ^ 2. If "yes", identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer multipliers. Zone* Impact (s uare feet) Multiplier Required Miti ation 1 8,999 3 (2 for Catawba) 0 2 5,210 1.5 0 Total 14,209 0 * Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from the top of the near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone I . XI. 3. If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation of Property, Riparian Buffer Restoration /Enhancement, or Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0244, or .0260. Because buffer impacts are less than 1/3 acre we do not believe mitigation will be required. Stormwater (required by DWQ) Describe impervious acreage (existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site. Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands downstream from Page 7 of 8 the property. If percent impervious surface exceeds 20%, please provide calculations demonstrating total proposed impervious level. The proposed impervious for this~roject is expected to exceed 24%• however the stormwater plans have not been finalized at this time. Multiple areas have been set aside for the installation of BMP's and constructed wetlands. We request that the NC-DWQ approve this permit application with the condition that impacts will not occur until the stormwater plan has been submitted and approved b~your office. XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ) Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility. Sanitary Sewer XIII. Violations (required by DWQ) Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules? Yes ^ No Is this anafter-the-fact permit application? Yes ^ No XIV. Cumulative Impacts (required by DWQ) Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in additional development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality? Yes ^ No If yes, please submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with the most recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality policy posted on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. If no, please provide a short narrative description: We do no not believe that this project will result in additional development that will affect downstream water quality. The proposed project will provide constructed wetlands to treat stormwater before it leaves the site and maintain 50-foot riparian buffers along the stream channels. If development occurs on the adiacent parcels these projects will also be required to comply with the Neuse Buffer Rules and the Town of Fuquay stormwater requirements, in order to protect water quality. XV. Other Circumstances (Optional): It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).

Explain: B. CWA SECTION 404 DETERMINATION OF JURISDICTION. There Are "waters of the U.S."within Clean Water Act (CWA) jurisdiction (as defined by 33 CFR part 328) in the review area [Required] 1.

Identify (estimate) size of waters of the U.S. in the review area: Non-wetland waters: 1600 linear feet: 4-8 width (ft) and/or NA acres. Wetlands: >] acres. c. Limits (boundaries) of jurisdiction based on: ~ ~„e,~(`neat,~i,~g~~~aj Elevation of established OHWM (if known): 2. Non-regulated waters/wetlands (check if applicable):3 Potentially jurisdictional waters and/or wetlands were assessed within the review area and determined to be not jurisdictional. Explain: ~ Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below. z For purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a 1'NW and that typically flows year-round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally" (e.g., typically 3 months). ' Supporting documentation is presented in Section III.F. SECTION III: CWA ANALYSIS A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete Section III.A.1 and Section III.D.1. only; if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2 and Section III.D.1.; otherwise, see Section III.B below. 1. TNW Identify TNW: NA. Summarize rationale supporting determination: Wetland adjacent to TNW Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent": NA. B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY): This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met. The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non-navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3 months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round (perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow, skip to Section III.D.4. A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law. If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.C below. 1. Characteristics of non-TNWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNW (i) General Area Conditions: Watershed size: iles Drainage area: "~ ' es' Average annual rainfall: inches Average annual snowfall: inches (ii) Physical Characteristics: (a) Relationship with TNW: ^ Tributary flows directly into TNW. ^ Tributary flows through 1cCF1`1 ~ tributaries before entering TNW. Project waters are 'river miles from TNW. Identify flow route to TNWS: Tributary stream order, if known: Project waters are ' river miles from RPW. Project waters are aerial (straight) miles from TNW. Project waters are _ _ ~ ,aerial (straight) miles from RPW. Project waters cross or serve as state boundaries.

SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW. Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus. Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example: • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that support downstream foodwebs? • Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or biological integrity of the TNW? Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented below: 1. Significant nexus findings for non-RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III.D: Significant nexus findings for non-RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non-RPW flows directly or indirectly into TNWs.
