Below is a response to each of your concerns: 1. It appears based on your application that impacts to wetlands could be completely avoided. Two driveways into the property already exist off of 17 1h Street as depicted on your site plan. As such, the road crossing though waters of the US appears unnecessaiy. Avoidance and minimization is a requirement under NWP General Condition 20. Please provide proof that NCDOT is requiring this driveway to be built in this exact location. As noted in our application, NC DOT and the City of Wilmington are requiring the applicant to place one of the site's driveways so that it lines up with Greenfield Street, which causes the driveway to impact Waters of the U.S. The engineer attempted to avoid this impact by designing a driveway that was slightly shifted, but DOT firmly rejected this idea. Please see the attached email correspondence between the engineer and Anthony Law of NC DOT. 2. The feature you describe as a "ditch classified as waters of the US" is a tributary, not a wetland as you depict in your Pre-Construction Notification (PCN). The Jurisdictional Determination survey signed bvMs. Jennifer Fiye of this office and issued to you onJanuary 31, 2005 labels this feature as a tributary cis do her site notes. Please revise your PCN to illustrate requested impacts. www.lmgroup.net • info@lmgroup.net • Phone: 910.452.0001 • Fax: 910.452.0060 3805 Wrightsville Ave., Suite 15, Wilmington, NC 28403 9 P.O. Box 2522, Wilmington, NC 28402 As requested, we have modified the PCN form and the site plan drawings to describe the channel as a tributary. 3. It appears that this tributary feature nray be a man-altered stream, not a man-made ditch. Please provide evidence that you used in making you determination. Staff of LMG prepared a Stream Identification Form for this channel on 4/8/2008 (enclosed). The form assigns the site 21.5 points, identifying it as a lower level intermittent stream. We have also enclosed several pictures of the feature. This channel appears to be a ditch that receives stormwater from adjacent developments. It disappears into a culvert under 17`h Street and cannot be seen again until hitting Greenfield Lake. If it is a stream, it is a low-functioning, mostly subterranean feature. Finally, we have included a 1993 7.5-minute series topographical map of the site which shows a topographic feature in this area, but no blue-line until reaching Greenfield Lake. It is likely that this channel was once a wetland finger of Greenfield Lake that was excavated for stonnwater purposes many years ago. 4. Compensatory mitigation will be required.for impacts to this tributary. We have received an acceptance letter from the Ecosystem Enhancement Program to buy into their program for the restoration of a stream within the Lower Cape Fear River watershed. Please note that we feel strongly that this feature is not a high quality stream and request that the required mitigation ratios be reduced to accurately reflect the resource that is being impacted. I hope this infornation adequately answers your concerns. Please contact me if you have any additional questions. Thank you for your assistance with this project.

Anthony Law rballand wrote: Anthony: I received an e-mail from Richie Brown this morning regarding the new driveway connection at 17th and Greenfield Street. I was asked to provide you with justification as to why we are proposing an offset and could not align the intersection. I've attached a PDF file as a visual aid to help you understand why we cannot shift the driveway any further north. When we met with you in August, we mentioned that a blue line stream runs from east to west along the northern property line of the 17th Street property and then to an existing 48" culvert that conveys the water under 17th Street. The top of bank of the stream was classified as wetlands according to the ACOE. We moved our driveway as far north as possible without impacting the blue line stream. We have a small retaining wall on the northern edge of driveway to account for the grade difference since we cannot daylight out to existing grade. Our offsets meet the minimum design criteria set forth in AASHTO's policy on geometric design and I have attached for your review. If you feel that further justification is needed or have any questions, do not hesitate to call. Regards, Robert P. Balland, P.E.

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 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. Permanent impacts are limited to an unavoidable road crossimz that will impact 231f of tributary. In order to develop the site NCDOT has determined that the road crossing must occur at the same point as the jurisdictional Updated 11/1/2005 Page 9 of 12 tributary in order to line up with an existing intersection and minimize obstructions to traffic flow. Since this is a requirement of NCDOT the impact is unavoidable. 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 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 littp://li2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/stmi-,ide.htm]. 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. N/A 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.

It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact these agencies to determine if payment to the NCEEP will be approved. This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not received a copy of the issued 404 Permit/401 Certification/CAMA permit within this time frame, this acceptance will expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to NCEEP. Once NCEEP receives a copy of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the In Lieu Fee to be paid to NCEEP by an applicant is calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed at www.nceep.net, Based on the information supplied by you the impacts that may require compensatory mitigation are summarized in the following table.
