PCN and JD Request
Dear Mr. Chapin:
The purpose of this correspondence is to request that a Nationwide 39 be issued for the above
referenced project in Caldwell County. The impacts requested in this permit application are limited
to three stream crossings. Each crossing is necessary to access highground. Total impacts equal
300 linear feet of streams. Headwalls have been increased to decrease the impact lengths. These
headwalls will be utilized upstream and downstream of all three crossings.
No wetland or open water impacts are proposed for the project, and all remaining stream reaches
and wetlands on the property will be preserved. Approximately 12 acres of the site will be reserved
for common open space.
Agent authorization, dataforms, wetland survey maps, usgs topographic map, and soils map are
attached for your review. Feel free to call with any questions that you may have.
Best regards,
c:--?

financial 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. All of the road crossings
requested in this permit application are necessarv to access highground. No open water or
wetland impacts are proposed. Headwalls will be utilized upstream and downstream of the
crossings to minimize the impact length
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
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
Page 5 of 8
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.
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.
Mitigation is proposed by purchase into the NC EEP. All remaining streams and wetlands on
the site will be preserved. Approximately 12 acres will be left in common open space.
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
[phone] 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
