WE1 LANDS AND STORMWATER BR""
Dear Ms. Karoly:
Thank for your staff's assistance with this project. We are submitting the additional
information requested from written correspondence on June 20, 2008. We are requesting
for NC Division of Water Quality (DWQ) written approval under Section 404, Clean Water
Act, 33 USC 1344 and the Neuse River Buffer Rules. We have addressed your included
written comments in the following paragraphs.
1. Impacts:
a. The PCN form (signed June 16, 2008) lists the total
stream impact to be 132 linear feet, while the plan sheet
(ENGR 200G) lists the impact as 143 linear feet. Please
ensure the correct impact amount is listed on both the
plan sheets and the PCN form.
b. The PCN form also lists riparian buffer impacts for Zone
1:6,760 ft2 and Zone 2:3,984 ft2, totaling 10,744 ft2, while
the plan sheet (ENGR 200G) lists the impacts as: Zone
1:6,276 ft2 and Zone 2:3,637 ft2, totaling 9,795 ft2 (in
actuality these impacts total 9,913 ft2). Please ensure the
correct impact amounts are listed on both the plan
sheets and the PCN form.
We apologize for the discrepancy between the PCN and the Plan Sheets.
The Plan Sheets accurately depicted the proposed stream and riparian buffer
impacts. Therefore, the correct proposed stream and riparian buffer impacts are
143 LF, 6,276 ft2 (Zone 1) and 3,637 ft2 (Zone 2), respectively. The PCN has
been corrected to reflect these proposed impact amounts. Plan Sheet ENGR
20OG has also been corrected to show 9,913 ft2 in proposed riparian impacts.

2. Diffuse Flow:
a. The bypass channel dimensions on the level spreader
supplement forms for both the North and South Dry
detention ponds show different dimensions than those
on the plan sheets. Primarily, the bottom width and
depth of channel values differ. Please ensure the correct
dimensions are shown on both the plan sheets and
supplement forms. You may use a typical section such
as the one shown as Flat Bottom typical detail on Plan
Sheet SITE 500 with a table of the dimensions (such as
bottom width, top width, side slopes and flow depth) for
both the North and South Ponds' bypass channels.
Please ensure that the depth of each channel is at least 1
ft.
The plan sheets and supplement forms have been corrected to match
each other and depict the correct bypass channel dimensions. The depth of
each bypass channel is 1-foot. Thank you for noticing this discrepancy.
If you should have questions or require additional clarification please feel free to contact
me at 844-7437 (office), 749-8259 (cell) or email: iayOkellerenvironmental.com.

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 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 The proposed Black Maple Drive (BMD) was
strateaicallv placed at the uoaer end of the UT to Beaverdam Creek and above
the stream's transition point to perennial. It was also placed perpendicularly to
the stream and the culverts will be placed ap proximatel y 1-foot below the stream
bed in accordance to best management p ractices ( BMP's) to allow aquatic
passage. The pro posed stream crossin g location of BMD will allow inter-
connectivitv between Smina Forest Road and Hiahwav 401 and the larae
northern and southern upland areas.

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 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.
The proposed project should not be required to provide mitigation for the
proposed impacts. This is due the efforts of the developer's team to avoid
jurisdictional areas to the maximum extent possible Impacts to the streams
and wetlands are less than 150 linear feet and Y2 acre respectively. As
shown on the Site Plan, sufficient room is provided for homes and driveways
without encroachment into the buffer areas.
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
Page 6 of 9
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please
