Steve,
Can you send NCDMS's new mitigation acceptance letter for the Dan River site? If they haven't sent it yet, can you tell me which
HUCs they propose to fulfill the mitigation from? Thanks.

Hi Steve. I received your voicemail regarding NCDMS providing compensatory mitigation, but that those credits may come from
other 8 digit HUCs in the Roanoke basin. Typically, in cases where alternative compensatory mitigation is not available/feasible,
we would accept out-of-HUC mitigation, but would increase (typically double) the mitigation ratio; i.e. requiring 4:1 mitigation
vs. 2:1, or 2:1 mitigation vs. 1:1. That being said, I'll check with Jean and our mitigation group this afternoon and reply back with
our requirements. Sorry for the delay, but I appreciate the update.

County: Rockingham
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the NCDEQ Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) is willing to accept
payment for compensatory mitigation for impacts associated with the above referenced project as indicated in the
table below. Please note that this decision does not assure that participation in the DMS in -lieu fee mitigation
program will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts. It is the responsibility
of the applicant to contact permitting agencies to determine if payment to the DMS will be approved. You must
also comply with all other state, federal or local government permits, regulations or authorizations associated with
the proposed activity including G.S. § 143-214.11.
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 within this time frame, this acceptance will
expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to DMS. Once DMS 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 by an applicant is calculated
based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed on the DMS website.
Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the DMS, the impacts for which you are
requesting compensatory mitigation credit are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation
required and assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may exceed the impact
amounts shown below.

03010103, 03010104 or 03010102. Upon receipt of payment, DMS will take responsibility for providing the
compensatory mitigation. The mitigation will be performed in accordance with the In -Lieu Fee Program
