Dear Mr. McMillan:
October 27, 2008
(dQ V 3 2008
I)ENR - 4VA 1 ER QUALI rY
WETLANDS AND STORMWATER BRANCH
The site plan for the Mayo Forest site has been modified to avoid and minimize impacts to
regulated features.
The new site plan has eliminated the need for the two driveway crossings for what was Lots 17
and 18 (the subdivision road was realigned to allow for suitable building sites on the east side
of the channel).
The new site plan will utilize an off-line riprap apron at Impact S1 to decrease impacts for the
road crossing by 40 If.
The new site plan will remove the old dam on site to allow Impact S2 to occur on the portion of
the CH100 channel that was determined by the Corps to be intermittent/unimportant (overflow
gully). The dam removal will result in approximately 400 If of new/restored channel within the
pond bottom and below the road. Open water impacts on the pond will be 0.0113 acres.
The new proposed total permanent impacts to perennial channels are 103 If for a road crossing.
The new proposed total permanent impacts to intermittent/unimportant channels are 107 If for
road/lot fill. The new total proposed temporary impacts to perennial channels are 10 If for
septic lines (open trench and backfill) and 10 If for a cofferdam.
Endwalls have been utilized to minimize impacts to channels. Mitigation is to come in the form
of avoidance/minimization (endwalls on crossings) and preservation (approx 4100 If of channel
and 0.385 acres of wetland).

Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project
at the time of this application: Site is forested. An old farm pond that needs repair is located
on property. The general land use in the vicinity is forestry, agriculture.
Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The project
is a single family residential development. Stream impacts include two road crossings for
subdivision roads. Impact I impacts a perennial channel. The site layout has been modified
such that Impact 2 now impacts only the portion of the channel determined by the Corps to
be intermittant unimportant. The dam on property will be removed. Impacts 3 and 4
Page 2 of 9
(driveway crossings on the original plan) have been eliminated by shifting the road so that
suitable building sites are located on the east side of the channel. Typical grading equipment
will be used in the construction of the roads and installation of culverts.
Because of changes to the site plan, five temporary impacts are necessary (Lots 14, 15, 27, 34
and 40) that involve septic lines crossing channels to access a suitable septic fields. The
channel crossings will be achieved with open trench and backfill.
Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The purpose of the work is to access highground
to facilitate development of the property. Because of grading constraints, the two
subdivision road crossings are needed to access the entirety of the property.
Impacts associated with the installation of a septic line are neccesary for proper sewage
treatment of Lots 14, 15, 27, 34 and 40.

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.
Impacts Sland S2 are necessary to gain access to high ground. Endwalls and off-line riprap
aprons are being utilized to minimize stream impacts. The site plan has been modified to
eliminate two driveway crossings and place Impact S2 in the portion of channel (overflow gully)
determined by the Corps to be intermittent unimportant. The old dam will be removed to allow
for the placement of the Impact S2 in the intermittent unimportant portion of channel.
Impact S3, S4, S5, S6, and S7 are necessary to access suitable septic fields for Lots 14, 15, 27,
'AA and all
Impact S8 is necessary for working in the dry during culvert installation.
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.

Dam Removal Construction Sequence for Mayo Forest
The engineer proposes to utilize existing drain line to drain pond and use to keep drained
until new 36" pipe is installed. A geotechnical testing firm will determine whether old
dam material is suitable for road bed. Dam will not be removed entirely, may just widen
out for new roadbed.

Culvert Installation Construction Sequence
Prior to beginning culvert installation, install
temporary stream crossing if needed. Divert runoff from
roadway to sediment traps; diversions to remain in place
until culvert is in place. Install coffer dam upstream
of culvert and install rock silt screen downstream of
culvert and puny stream flow around culvert installation
as required during installation. Camplete culvert
installation and backfill over culvert. Install silt
fence along toe of slope over the upstream and downstream
ends of culvert and divert flow at toe of slopes to
temporary sediment traps,. Install rip-rap apron at culvert
outlet (remove rock silt screen as required). Remove
temporary stream crossing and cofferdam; restore disturbed
stream channel to original stream bed contours, permnently
seed disturbed areas. Conplete roadway fill and permanently
seed fill slopes.
