'(ORMWA RBRAN? RE: Preconstruction Notification Application Nationwide Permit #29, Piping a Stream, Residential Property Stream: Tar Branch Winston-Salem, Forsyth County, NC Our Project #08.135 Dear Mr. Thomas and Mr. Dorney: On behalf of Tanners Park Townhome Owners Association ("TOA"), Geoscience & Technology, P.A. (GeoSci) is pleased to submit the enclosed Preconstruction Notification Form (PCN) for piping a 149 ft. section of an urban stream Winston-Salem, NC. The following text contains additional information concerning the proposed project. Where the information pertains to specific items in the PCN, the PCN section numbers are used. ' Background 1 The TOA community is designated as Forsyth County Tax Block 6232 Lot 009K. It is located between South Marshall Street and Poplar Street, with entrances from each of these streets. It is south of Wachovia Street and north of Academy Street. The adjoining property to the north, Block 6406, Lot 402, is owned by Tar Branch Investors, LLC ("TBI"). Tar Branch runs through both properties, in a generally south-south-east direction. In the last year, the storm water flash runoff has caused severe erosion on the outside of a curve, which happens to be at the foot of a 40 ft. bank. The erosion threatens several homes built at the top of the bank. TOA has retained GeoSci for engineering and environmental consulting services related to the erosion problem. A letter appointing us as Authorized Agents is attached. Tar Branch is marked on the US Geodetic Survey Quadrant maps with a solid blue line. It passes under a bridge at Wachovia Street, crosses the TBI property and part of the TOA property, then 400 ft. downstream from Wachovia Street bridge it enters a 96-in. corrugated metal pipe that passes under part of the TOA property and thence under South Marshall Street. The total length of pipe under TOA property and other underground conveyance under Marshall Street is approximately 700 ft. Approximately 3,000 ft. after re-emerging, Tar Branch discharges into Salem Creek. The catchment area upstream is predominantly impermeable, being part of center city Winston- Salem. The storm runoff is very "flashy". Base flow is only a few inches deep, while 10-yr. stage is estimated at about 9 ft. A storm on May 7, 2008, eroded an additional 5-6 ft., measured horizontally, of the toe of the 40 ft. bank, bringing the upper intersection of the slip surface and the existing slope many feet closer to the houses on top of the slope. The stretch of the most severe erosion is on both TBI and TOA properties, between Wachovia Street and the headwall of the existing 96 in. pipe. This zone begins approximately 250 ft. south of Wachovia Street, and ends approximately 150 ft. downstream, at the headwall of the existing 96-in. pipe. The site is marked on the Location Map on Sheet 1. The TOA is most immediately at risk from this erosion, so they are applying for the permit, for the sake of speed. They will, of course, obtain access and construction easements from TBI. The west bank of the stream was filled at some stage of the development of the area. The top of ' the bank is approximately 40 ft. above stream invert, at a slope nearly 1:1. The stream is deeply incised, so there is no room for traditional stream rehabilitation approaches. ' Our proposal is to pipe 149 ft of the stream, immediately upstream from the existing 96 in. CMP. ' It appears that Nationwide Permit #29 for piping a stream may apply to this project. Based on GeoSci's conversation with Mr. Thomas, it appears that the project is within the scope of and ' meets the criteria for this permit. We request the corresponding General Certification from NC DWQ. We understand that the NC DWQ Authorization Number that applies is 3705. Hydrologic Conditions Tar Branch is not in a floodplain. A study by HDR Engineering, Inc. of the Carolinas, titled Upper Salem Creek Master Plan, Final Report, shows the estimated runoff at the beginning of the 96 in. pipe, for selected storms. Allowing for possible further development and improved hydraulic conditions, they forecast a small increase in flood stages. The downtown area is almost completely developed, and there is a revised storm ordinance being considered by the City Council that would limit impact of development and redevelopment in this area. The study gives the following estimates for flow and depth at the entrance to the pipe': Description 10- r 25- r 50- r 100- r 2000 peak flow, cfs 332 371 422 486 2020 peak flow, cfs 334 372 423 488 2000 and 2020 Land Use, Max. Stage, ft. 8.8 9.6 10.6 11.9 2020 Land Use, with improved hydraulic conditions, Max. Stage, ft. 9.1 9.9 10.9 12 Project Description PCN §111. 10) Proposed construction details are indicated on Sheets It and 2. The proposed project consists of: 1) Installing a temporary construction driveway and access road from Wachovia Street. 2) Installing a temporary cofferdam to allow pump-around. 3) Cleanup of streambed along pipe alignment. 4) Placing pipe bed. 5) Placing Pipe. 6) Constructing junction box and headwalls. ' 7) Backfilling around and over pipe, with final grading to planned grades. 8) Removing temporary measures, e.g. coffer dam, temporary ramps and roads. 9) Applying a layer of topsoil, turf reinforcement mat and seed. ' The project is described on the attached Sheets S 1 and S2. Sheet 1 contains a small-scale plan of the surrounding area, showing topography and physical features, downloaded from the Forsyth ' County GIS. ' 'The study's label "Tanner's Run Trib. RB" does not agree with maps. The tributary so labeled appears to be what is shown as "Tar Branch" on the maps. In the study, the point of entry into the existing 96 in. pipe is node R1335 r Schedule ' The project will be submitted to the City Council of Winston-Salem for funding help, at the first Council meeting in June. It will take a few days for mobilization. Construction may begin in July. Stream Impacts (M.3) ' Under the proposed construction, approximately 149 linear ft. of the stream will be permanently impacted and approximately 50 additional ft. will be temporarily impacted during construction. The 149 ft. of impact consists of nominally 10 ft for the junction box with the existing pipe, 136.5 ft. of pipe and 2.5 ft. for the flare of the wing walls. These lengths are measured along the mapped centerline of the stream. ' Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) VII: Leaving the stream as it is will allow hundreds of tons of sediment to be washed downstream and ' will inevitably lead to the loss of several homes at the top of the western bank, perhaps in the next major storm. The 1:1 slope has questionable long-term stability. The considered opinion of the City Storm Water staff and the writer is that eventually, a structural solution will be required. ' The stream is deeply incised, with no room for measures that include benching. The steepness of the slope of the west bank cannot be reduced without condemning several houses. The east bank is bordered by a parking lot, in a densely developed residential area with no space to relocate the ' parking. A proposal to install armoring for interim stabilization of the stream bank was considered and rejected for the following reasons: 1) The topography dictates that the work be done in the stream. This means pump-around and building a ramp into the stream. It also means working from the bottom up, trying to place fill with a long reach track hoe, and having a limited space for mechanical compaction of the fill. Many of these mobilization expenses are the same as for a more permanent solution. 2) The cost estimates for interim protection in the form of a riprap blanket are actually higher than the estimates for "permanent" piping. The 149 ft. impact just covers the zone of greatest erosion, while tying in to the existing pipe. Any less than 149 ft., and the 40 ft. high bank will remain vulnerable.

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. 1 ' Page 9 of 12 1 1 1 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 htlp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.httnl. 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).
