WR Project #02170163.00
AID# SAW -2017-2441
NBRRO# 17-387
Dear Mr. Sullivan and Ms. Higgins,
On behalf of Forsyth Investment Co. LLC., we are requesting authorization from the USACE to use
NWP 29 for 0.47 acres of permanent wetland impacts and 25 If of temporary stream impacts for
construction of the proposed project. We are also requesting a 401 WQC from NCDWR for the
above referenced impacts.
The project is ±36.28 acres in size and is located north of US -70 Business between Shotwell Road
and S. Moore Street in Clayton, Johnston County (Latitude: 35.658713°N; Longitude: -
78.474383°W). The project is located in the Neuse River basin and onsite waters drain to Little
Creek. The Water Quality Classification for Little Creek is C; NSW and the Stream Index Number
is: 27-43-12. The cataloging unit for the site is 03020201.
Proposed Project
The purposed of the proposed project is to construct a 163 -unit townhome subdivision in order to
meet the existing demand for residential housing in the Town of Clayton. The proposed project
consists of the construction of 163 townhome lots and associated infrastructure, including internal
access roads, utilities and stormwater management.
The applicant is purchasing the ±36.28 acre northern portion of the larger ±42.56 acre Capps Tract
parcel (NCPIN: 165911-65-2257). The southern portion of the Capps Tract parcel depicted as
"Future Commercial Development" is not currently being purchased by the applicant, nor does the
applicant intend on purchasing this portion of the property, and therefore is not considered part of
the proposed project.
Project History
NCDWR issued a Buffer Determination (NBRRO #17-387) for the entire ±42.56 acre Capps Tract
parcel on 11/17/2017. A copy of the Buffer Determination Letter has been provided as an appendix.

Our People, Your Success.
A preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (SAW -2017-2441) for the entire ±42.56 Capps Tract
parcel was submitted by WR on 11/22/2017 and USACE regulatory specialist Roscoe Sullivan field
verified WR's delineation and jurisdictional status on 12/21/2017. WR is requesting issuance of the
preliminary JD in conjunction with issuance of the NWP 29.
Proposed Impacts
The proposed impacts consist of 0.47 acres of permanent wetland impacts and 25 If of temporary
stream impacts.
The construction of Enterprise Drivewill result in 0.17 acres of permanent wetland impacts (Impact
#1A). The Town of Clayton is requiring the applicant to construct the extension of Enterprise Drive
to connect to Summit Street. Both roads currently stub to the proposed project, and the connection
to these roads is required to meet the interconnectivity requirements of the Unified Development
Ordinance (UDO). This requirement is intended to provide interiortravel corridors to reducetraffic
on major thoroughfares. During the site plan approval process, the Town of Clayton requested
Enterprise Drive be located in the proposed location. The proposed Enterprise Drive extension will
ultimately provide a connection from the existing neighborhood to the north to US -70 Business.
Fill from the construction of Lots 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 & 25 will result in 0.30 acres of permanent
wetland impacts (Impact #113). The proposed Lots 20-25 are necessary to offset the construction
costs associated with the site development costs, as wells as construction of the required extension
of Enterprise Drive.
The proposed 25 If of temporary stream impacts (Impact #2A) will result from construction of a
temporary road crossing of UT to Little Creek. The temporary road is necessary to access uplands
east of UT to Little Creek (eastern uplands) of the site. The eastern uplands of the site will be used
for both excavation and storage of structural borrow material for site activities, as well as storage
of waste borrow for the proposed development. The use of this area allows the project to both
generate structural borrow material and store borrow/fill material onsite, reducing development
costs from offsite operations, and also reduces construction traffic on public roads traveling to and
from offsite locations. There is no proposed construction within the eastern uplands. Once
construction activities are complete and access to the upland area is no longer needed, the culvert
will be removed and the disturbed portion of the stream will be restored to natural contours. The
disturbed stream banks will be temporarily stabilized with biodegradable curled wood matting and
seeded until natural recruitment re -vegetates the stream banks with native vegetation.
The temporary road will also result in 2,080 sq ft (Zone 1: 1,230 sq ft (Impact #2B); Zone 2: 850 sq
ft (Impact #2C)) of riparian buffer impacts. Impacts #2B & #2C are exempt from permitting since
riparian buffer impacts are temporary and total less than 2,500 sq ft and vegetation will be restored
within six months of commencement of the construction of the temporary road.
Avoidance and Minimization
Prior to site plan design, the applicant requested that a detailed wetland delineation be conducted
so that impacts to wetlands and "waters" could be minimized. Proposed permanent impacts have
Page 2 of 5
Capps Tract Townhome Site - NWP 29 PCN 10 Withers Rave n e l
Our People, Your Success.
been minimize to only those impacts necessary to construct 6 lots, the construction of Enterprise
Drive.
Permanent wetland impacts have been minimized to only those necessary for the construction of
Enterprise Drive and Lots 20-25. Temporary impacts have been minimized to only those necessary
to utilize a temporary road to access uplands.
Site design has been dictated by requirements to maintain interconnectivity (as described in the
proposed impacts section), configuration of the boundary of the project area and location of
wetlands and streams within the site. The project area contains a ±6.18 acre wetland (Wetland C)
in the eastern portion of the propertywhich greatly limited the developable areawithin the project
and limited options for site design.
Additionally, the upland area west of Wetland C could not be developed to add additional lots.
Specifically, adding lots in this area would require a dedicated SCM to treat the stormwater runoff
for this area. The area necessary for the SCM would reduce the buildable area for lots to the point
that there would not be enough lots to offset the costs associated with the construction of the
additional road and utilities to access this area. Therefore, the upland area west of Wetland C is not
a viable upland alternative for Lots 20-25.
The construction of Enterprise Drive and Lots 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 & 25 will result in 0.47 acres of
permanent wetland impact. Specifically, the construction of Enterprise Drive would require 0.17
acres of permanent wetland impact (Impact 1A) if there were no proposed lots adjacent to it. As
previously mentioned, the extension of Enterprise Drive to Summit Street is a requirement of the
Town of Clayton.
The construction of Lots 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 & 25 will result in 0.30 acres of permanent wetland
impacts (Impact 1B) to Wetland C. Due to the onsite wetlands and configuration of the property,
there is a relatively smal I developable area within the site. The loss of developable area due to onsite
wetlands and interconnectivity requirements, as well as the additional costs of the construction of
the extension of Enterprise Drive, have created additional financial burdens on the project. The
proposed 163 townhome lots represent the minimum number of lots needed to offset site
development costs (i.e. land purchase price, infrastructure costs, grading costs, etc) while keeping
the selling price of the lots at a price point which the current real estate market can support. The
loss of six lots would increase the per lot construction cost for the remaining lots, pricing the lots
above what the current real estate market will support and potentially rendering the project
financially unfeasible. Impacts from lot construction could not be avoided completely but have been
minimized only to the upper area of the wetland. The lower area of the wetland will be undisturbed
allowing the hydrologic connection between Wetland C and downstream waters to remain intact.
The temporary road to access the eastern upland area for excavation/storage of structural borrow
and storage of waste borrow has been designed to avoid wetlands and to cross UT to Little Creek
at a perpendicular angle to minimize stream and buffer impacts. Once construction activities are
complete and access to the upland area is no longer needed, the culvert will be removed and the
disturbed portion of the stream will be restored to natural contours. The disturbed stream banks
will be temporarily stabilized with biodegradable curled wood matting and seeded until natural

recruitment re -vegetates the stream banks with native vegetation. Additionally, the vegetation
within the riparian bufferwill be replanted.
Silt fencing will be installed around all disturbed areas to prevent sediment from escaping into
adjacent wetlands and waters during construction. During construction, all equipment will access
construction areas from high ground.
Mitigation
Stream Mitigation
The proposed impacts are temporary; therefore, stream mitigation is not required.
Wetland Mitigation
The applicant proposes to mitigate for the 0.47 acres of permanent wetland impacts through the
purchase of offsite mitigation credits at a 2:1 ratio, resulting in the purchase of 0.94 acres of riparian
wetland mitigation. WR checked with private mitigation banks servicing the Neuse 03020201
basin, and the needed wetland mitigation is available from Wildlands Engineering and RES. The
applicant will provide 0.94 acres of riparian wetland mitigation through the purchase of credits
from RES. A copy of the Statement of Availability has been provided as an Appendix.
Stormwater Management Plan
The development will increase impervious area to roughly 35% of the site set by the Special Use
Permit #2017 -145 -SUP. The stormwater management plan consists of two Stormwater Control
Measures (SCM) in series, including a dry pond (SCM #1) and a 10' level spreader with a vegetated
filter strip (SCM #2). The SCMs have been designed for 90% TSS and TN removal, and therefore
diffuse flow is not required. The Stormwater Management Plan will be review and approved by the
Town of Clayton and Johnston County as the certified municipalities.
The current request is for 0.47 acres of permanent wetland impacts and 25 If of temporary stream
impacts (see the attached maps and PCN for details).
Please feel free to call if you have questions or require additional information.
Sincerely,
WithersRavenel

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
Prior to site plan design, the applicant requested that a detailed wetland delineation be conducted so that impacts to wetlands
and "waters" could be minimized. Proposed permanent impacts have been minimize to only those impacts necessary to
construct 6 lots, the construction of Enterprise Drive.
Permanent wetland impacts have been minimized to only those necessary for the construction of Enterprise Drive and Lots
20-25. Temporary impacts have been minimized to only those necessary to utilize a temporary road to access uplands.
Site design has been dictated by requirements to maintain interconnectivity (as described in the proposed impacts section),
configuration of the boundary of the project area and location of wetlands and streams within the site. The project area
contains a ±6.18 acre wetland (Wetland C) in the eastern portion of the property which greatly limited the developable area
within the project and limited options for site design.
Additionally, the upland area west of Wetland C could not be developed to add additional lots. Specifically, adding lots in this
area would require a dedicated SCM to treat the stormwater runoff for this area. The area necessary for the SCM would
reduce the buildable area for lots to the point that there would not be enough lots to offset the costs associated with the
construction of the additional road and utilities to access this area. Therefore, the upland area west of Wetland C is not a
viable upland alternative for Lots 20-25.
The construction of Enterprise Drive and Lots 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 & 25 will result in 0.47 acres of permanent wetland impact.
Page 6 of 11
PCN Form — Version 1.3 December 10, 2008 Version
Specifically, the construction of Enterprise Drive would require 0.17 acres of permanent wetland impact (Impact 1A) if there
were no proposed lots adjacent to it. As previously mentioned, the extension of Enterprise Drive to Summit Street is a
requirement of the Town of Clayton.
The construction of Lots 20, 21, 22, 23, 24 & 25 will result in 0.30 acres of permanent wetland impacts (Impact 1 B) to Wetland
C. Due to the onsite wetlands and configuration of the property, there is a relatively small developable area within the site.
The loss of developable area due to onsite wetlands and interconnectivity requirements, as well as the additional costs of the
construction of the extension of Enterprise Drive, have created additional financial burdens on the project. The proposed 163
townhome lots represent the minimum number of lots needed to offset site development costs (i.e. land purchase price,
infrastructure costs, grading costs, etc) while keeping the selling price of the lots at a price point which the current real estate
market can support. The loss of six lots would increase the per lot construction cost for the remaining lots, pricing the lots
above what the current real estate market will support and potentially rendering the project financially unfeasible. Impacts from
lot construction could not be avoided completely but have been minimized only to the upper area of the wetland. The lower
area of the wetland will be undisturbed allowing the hydrologic connection between Wetland C and downstream waters to
remain intact.
The temporary road to access the eastern upland area for excavation/storage of structural borrow and storage of waste
borrow has been designed to avoid wetlands and to cross UT to Little Creek at a perpendicular angle to minimize stream and
buffer impacts. Once construction activities are complete and access to the upland area is no longer needed, the culvert will
be removed and the disturbed portion of the stream will be restored to natural contours. The disturbed stream banks will be
temporarily stabilized with biodegradable curled wood matting and seeded until natural recruitment re-vegetates the stream
banks with native vegetation. Additionally, the vegetation within the riparian buffer will be replanted.
Silt fencing will be installed around all disturbed areas to prevent sediment from escaping into adjacent wetlands and waters
during construction. During construction, all equipment will access construction areas from high ground.

WR reviewed the NC Natural Heritage Program database, located at http://www.ncnhp.org/web/nhp/home, as well as
NCNHP GIS data to identify if there were any known occurrences of endangered species on or near the proposed project.
The review of the NHP data did not identify any recent occurrences of federally listed threatened or endangered species
or critical habitat on the subject property or within 1.0 miles of the project. A copy of the NCNHP project review letter is
included with this submittal.
The USFWS data review for Johnston County identified one species, Michaux's sumac, listed as Endangered, which may
have potential habitat on the project site. A field survey was conducted on 10/24/2017 to identify potential habitat or
occurrence of Michaux's sumac. Results of the survey verified no presence of Michaux's sumac on the site. The field
survey also determined no potential habitat for any other federally protected species know to occur in Johnston County.
Therefore, the prosed project will have No Effect on federally protected species.

RE: Capps Tract Townhome Site; 02170163.00
Dear Lyle Phillips:
NCNHDE-5896
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information
about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
A query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are records for rare species, important natural
communities, natural areas, or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. These
results are presented in the attached `Documented Occurrences' tables and map.
The attached `Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been
documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that
these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists and is
included for reference. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed area within a one -mile radius of the
project area, if any, are also included in this report.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project
review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions.
Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the
NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP
data may not be redistributed without permission.
Also please note that the NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a
Dedicated Nature Preserve (DNP), Registered Heritage Area (RHA), Clean Water Management Trust Fund
(CWMTF) easement, or an occurrence of a Federally -listed species is documented near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please
contact Rodney A. Butler at rod ney.butlerng ncdcr.gov or 919.707.8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program

No Element Occurrences are Documented within the Project Area
There are no documented element occurrences (of medium to very high accuracy) that intersect with the project area. Please note, however, that although the NCNHP database
does not show records for rare species within the project area, it does not necessarily mean that they are not present; it may simply mean that the area has not been surveyed. The
use of Natural Heritage Program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys if needed, particularly if the project area contains suitable habitat for rare species. If rare
species are found, the NCNHP would appreciate receiving this information so that we may update our database.

Definitions of Federal Status Codes:
E = endangered. A taxon "in danger of extinction throughout all or a significant portion of its range."
T = threatened. A taxon "likely to become endangered within the foreseeable future throughout all or a significant
portion of its range."
C = candidate. A taxon under consideration for official listing for which there is sufficient information to support listing.
(Formerly "C1" candidate species.)
BGPA =Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act. See below.
https://www.fws.gov/raleigh/species/cntylist/johnston.html[4/25/2018 4:02:32 PM]
Johnston County Endangered Species, Threatened Species,Federal Species of Concern, and Candidate Species
ARS = At Risk S en cies
FSC=Federal Species of Concern. FSC is an informal term. It is not defined in the federal Endangered Species Act. In
North Carolina, the Asheville and Raleigh Field Offices of the US Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) define Federal
Species of Concern as those species that appear to be in decline or otherwise in need of conservation and are under
consideration for listing or for which there is insufficient information to support listing at this time. Subsumed under the
term "FSC" are all species petitioned by outside parties and other selected focal species identified in Service strategic
plans, State Wildlife Action Plans, or Natural Heritage Program Lists.
T(S/A) = threatened due to similarity of appearance. A taxon that is threatened due to similarity of appearance with
another listed species and is listed for its protection. Taxa listed as T(S/A) are not biologically endangered or threatened
and are not subject to Section 7 consultation. See below.
EXP = experimental population. A taxon listed as experimental (either essential or nonessential). Experimental,
nonessential populations of endangered species (e.g., red wolf) are treated as threatened species on public land, for
consultation purposes, and as species proposed for listing on private land.
P = proposed. Taxa proposed for official listing as endangered or threatened will be noted as "PE" or "PT", respectively.
Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGPA):
In the July 9, 2007 Federal Register( 72:37346-37372), the bald eagle was declared recovered, and removed (de -listed)
from the Federal List of Threatened and Endangered wildlife. This delisting took effect August 8,2007. After delisting,
the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (Eagle Act) (16 U.S.C. 668-668d) becomes the primary law protecting bald
eagles. The Eagle Act prohibits take of bald and golden eagles and provides a statutory definition of "take" that includes
"disturb". The USFWS has developed National Bald Eagle Management Guidelines to provide guidance to land
managers, landowners, and others as to how to avoid disturbing bald eagles. For mor information, visit
http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/baldeagle.htm
Threatened due to similarity of appearance(T(S/A)):
In the November 4, 1997 Federal Register (55822-55825), the northern population of the bog turtle (from New York
south to Maryland) was listed as T (threatened), and the southern population (from Virginia south to Georgia) was listed
as T(S/A) (threatened due to similarity of appearance). The T(S/A) designation bans the collection and interstate and
international commercial trade of bog turtles from the southern population. The T(S/A) designation has no effect on
land management activities by private landowners in North Carolina, part of the southern population of the species. In
addition to its official status as T(S/A), the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service considers the southern population of the bog
turtle as a Federal species of concern due to habitat loss.
Definitions of Record Status:
Current - the species has been observed in the county within the last 50 years.
Historic - the species was last observed in the county more than 50 years ago.
Obscure - the date and/or location of observation is uncertain.
Incidental/migrant - the species was observed outside of its normal range or habitat.
Probable/potential - the species is considered likely to occur in this county based on the proximity of known records (in
adjacent counties), the presence of potentially suitable habitat, or both.

issuance of a Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate by the bank acknowledging that the Applicant has
fully secured credits from the bank and the Banker has accepted full responsibility for the mitigation
obligation requiring the credits/units.
The Banker will issue the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate within three (3) days of receipt of the
