This Public Notice and all attached plans are also available on the Wilmington District Web Site at www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands n �' I Applicant: r pp . Mercury Development Attn: Mr. Greg Ferguson 5660 Six Forks Road, Suite 202 J r,-2— Raleigh, North Carolina 27609 '(� ✓ Agent: Withers and Ravenel Attn: Mr. Todd Preuninger 111 MacKenan Drive t' 1 fi Cary, NC 27511 Authority The Corps will evaluate this application and a decide whether to issue, conditionally issue, or deny the proposed work pursuant to applicable procedures of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Location The proposed site for Wendell Falls is approximately 1,300 -acres of contiguous land located on the west side of Martin Pond Road (SR 2503), 2,600 feet north of the intersection of Martin Pond Road and Poole Road (SR 1007) in Wendell, Wake County, North Carolina (Latitude 35.7694 and Longitude 78.4221). The site contains unnamed stream channels and adjacent wetlands which drain to Mark's Creek, a tributary in the Neuse River Basin (Hydrologic Unit Code 03020201). Existing Site Conditions The existing site conditions for the proposed development contains approximately 195- acrs of w�,-tls and 6. miles of stream channels. The wetlands are comprised of headwater forest wetlands, naturalized beaver impoundments, wetland seeps, and freshwater marshes. Vegetation within these wetlands is comprised of red maple (Acer rubrum), tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciva), tag alder (Alnus serrulata), netted chain fern (Woodwardia areolata), possum -haw viburnum (Viburnum nudum), lizard's tail (Saururus cernuus), and greenbriar (Smilax spp.). The remaining upland areas are comprised of agricultural fields, pastures, and woodlands. Vegetation within these areas is comprised of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), tulip poplar, black cherry (Prunus serotina), sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), dog fennel (Eupatorium capillifolium), and other typical species. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (Corps) has conducted site visits and has field verified the aquatic features listed above. Applicant's Stated Purpose The project is to provide a variety of land uses including residential, commercial, office, institutional, and park features. This mix of land use represents an attempt to achieve a balance of community goals and market dynamics for the Wendell area and Eastern Wake County. Increased transportation demands, within and around the project site, would be accommodated by a proposed interchange with U.S. 64/264 and construction of a major thoroughfare. Project Description The, proposed development would construct 4,000 residential dwelling units and approximately 450,000 square feet of retail and office space. Nearly 160 acres of land along'the Mark's Creek corridor and Lake Myra will be dedicated to Wake County for the creation of a park. Originally, the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposed an interchange with U.S. 64/264 at mile marker 427 and Knightdale Eagle Rock Road (SR 2501/2502), but has no immediate plans to construct this interchange. Therefore, the applicant has incorporated this interchange into the project to handle the projected traffic flows. The ramps, loops and Y -line for the proposed interchange would be confined by the existing right-of-way that was previously acquired by the NCDOT. The typical section for the deceleration ramp of the proposed intersection leading from U.S. 64/264 is a 4 -foot paved shoulder section with a 16 -foot wide lane. The acceleration ramp leading from SR 2501/2502 shows a curb -and -gutter typical section with a 20 -foot lane and 4 - foot paved shoulders. The Wendell Falls thoroughfare would leave the interchange and cross Mark's Creek via a proposed bridge as it enters the property. 2 The proposed thoroughfare would begin at the proposed interchange and terminate at the intersection of Richardson Road with Wiley Oaks Road, just east of the existing intersection of SR2502 and Martin Pond Road. Maps, showing each crossing are available upon request. The applicant is currently developing a compensatory mitigation package containing possible. on-site preservation and payment to the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) to mitigate for unavoidable impacts to aquatic resources. Other Required Authorizations This notice and all applicable application materials are being forwarded to the appropriate State agencies for review. The Corps will generally not make a final permit decision until the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500). The receipt of the application and this public notice in the NCDWQ Central Office in Raleigh serves as application to the NCDWQ for certification. A waiver will be deemed to occur if the NCDWQ fails to act on this request for certification within sixty days of the date of the receipt of this notice in the NCDWQ Central Office. Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be reviewed at the NCDWQ Central Office, 401 Oversight and Express Permits Unit, 2321 Crabtree Boulevard, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604-2260. All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for certification under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act should do so in writing delivered to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ), 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1650 Attention: Ms Cyndi Karoly by November 5, 2006. Essential Fish Habitat This notice initiates the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) consultation requirements of the Magnuson -Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. The Corps' initial determination is that the proposed project will not adversely impact EFH or associated fisheries managed by the South Atlantic or Mid Atlantic Fishery Management Councils or the National Marine Fisheries Service. Cultural Resources The Corps has consulted the latest published version of the National Register of Historic Places and is not aware that any registered properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein are located within the project area. However, two areas (the Richardson Farm and cemetery) that might contain archeological resources are located near the project site. It has not yet been determined if these areas are within the permit area for this project; however, the Corps will coordinate with the State Historical Preservation Office regarding potential effects. Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistoric, or historical data may be located within the project area and/or could be affected by the proposed work. Endangered Species The Corps has reviewed the project area, examined all information provided by the applicant and consulted the latest North Carolina Natural Heritage Database. Based on available information, the Corps has determined pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973, that the proposed project will have no effect on federally listed endangered or threatened species or their formally designated critical habitat. Evaluation The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity on the public interest. That decision will reflect the national concern for both protection and utilization of important resources. The benefit which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. All, factors which may be relevant to the proposal will be considered including the cumulative effects thereof, among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general environmental concerns, wetlands, historic properties, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards, flood plain values (in accordance with Executive Order 11988), land use, navigation, shoreline erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of property ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving the discharge of dredged or fill materials in waters of the United States, the evaluation of the impact of the activity on the public interest will include application of the Environmental Protection Agency's 404(b)(1) guidelines. Commenting Information The Corps of Engineers is soliciting comments from the public; Federal, State and local agencies and officials, including any consolidate State Viewpoint or written position of the Governor; Indian Tribes and other interested parties in order to consider and evaluate the impacts of this proposed activity. Any comments received will be considered by the Corps of Engineers to determine whether to issue, modify, condition or deny a permit for this proposal. To make this decision, comments are used to assess impacts on endangered species, historic properties, water quality, general environmental effects and the other public interest factors listed above. Comments are used in the preparation of an Environmental Assessment (EA) and/or an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Comments are also used to determine the need for a public hearing and to determine the overall public interest of the proposed activity. In addition, any person may request, in writing, within the comment period specified in this notice, that an additional public hearing be held to consider the application. Requests for public hearings shall state, with particularity, the reasons for holding a public hearing. n Requests for a public hearing shall be granted, unless the District Engineer determines that the issues raised are insubstantial or there is otherwise no valid interest to be served by a hearing. Written comments pertinent to the proposed work, as outlined above, will be received by the Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District, until 5pm, November 12, 2006. Comments should be submitted to Mr. Monte Matthews, Raleigh Regulatory Field Office, 6508 Falls of Neuse Road, Suite 120, Raleigh, North Carolina, 27615. 5 �.

We are also requesting 401 -certification and buffer compliance from the NC-DWQ. 1.1) Project Location The subject property is located on the west side of Martin Pond Road (SR 2503), 2600 feet north of the intersection of Martin Pond Rd and Poole Rd (SR 1007), in Wendell, Wake County, North Carolina (Latitude 35.7694621°N, Longitude 78.4220719°W). The tract is approximately +/-130o acres in size and is located in the Neuse River Basin and contains unnamed tributaries to Mark's Creek. The water quality classification for these features is C; NSW and the Stream Index #is 27-38. The Hydrologic Unit Code for this basin is 030202o1.The project boundaries are indicated on the attached USGS Quadrangle Map and the Wake County Soil Survey. 1.2) Existing Site Conditions The property is approximately 1,3oo acres in size and contains un -named tributaries to Mark's Creek. Existing conditions on site consist of agricultural fields, pastures, and woodlands. Wetlands on site consist of headwater forest wetlands, beaver impoundments, wetland seeps, and freshwater marshes. The site contains approximately 195 acres of wetlands and 6.6 miles of stream channel. Vegetation within the wetland areas consists primarily of red maple (Acerrubrum), tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), sweet gum (Liquidambarstyraciflua), tag alder (Alnus serrulata), netted chain fern (Woodwardia areolata), possum -haw viburnum (Viburnum nudism), Smilax (Smilax spp.), and Lizard's tail (Saururus cernuus). Upland vegetation consists of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda), tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), black cherry (Prunus serotina), sourwood (Oxydendrum arboreum), dogwood (Cornus florida), grape vine (Vitis rotundifolia), honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), and southern arrowwood (Viburnum dentatum). Within the fallow fields early successional species such as dog fennel (Eupatorium capillifolium), broomsedge (Andropogonsp.), and black berry (Rubussp.) were also observed. Based on the Wake County Soil Survey, soils across the site consist primarily of Appling sandy loam and Louisburg loamy sand within the upland areas. Wehadkee- Bibbs and Worsham sandy loam soils are typically found in the wetland areas and along the riparian corridor. 1.3) Project Description and Purpose Wendell Falls Planned Unit Development proposes a variety of land uses including residential, commercial, office, institutional and a county park. The assemblage of land involved in this project will ultimately be annexed into the Town of Wendell. The North Carolina Department of Transportation has proposed an interchange with U.S. 64/264 bypass to serve this area of Wake County and ultimately Wendell Falls as proposed. NCDOT has no immediate plans to construct this interchange therefore Wendell Falls Development has taken the initiative to work with DOT to construct this interchange in order to better serve the access to this development. Upon completion, Wendell Falls will locate 4,00o residential dwelling units and approximately 450, 000 square feet of retail and office space. 16o acres of land along the Marks Creek corridor and Lake Myra will also be dedicated to Wake County for the -creation of a park. The mix of land uses in Wendell Falls represents an attempt to achieve a balance of community goals and market dynamics for the growing Wendell area as well as Eastern Wake County. Wendell Falls will strive to minimize stream impacts while also providing proper circulation ultimately preferred by planning officials from the Town of Wendell. A well-designed circulation plan for a site of this size is a main factor in justifying impacts to any waters of the U.S. These impacts will be presented in more detail throughout the remainder of this document. This project is privately funded by the development company and its investors and while benefiting these private groups, will also benefit the Town of Wendell and Eastern Wake County by providing new opportunities for residential and commercial uses. Construction of the proposed interchange with U.S. 64/264 bypass creates a major thoroughfare that will pass through Wendell Falls to points east of the site. With a project of this size, vehicular circulation is crucial in providing a hierarchy of routes between all site uses. With the proposal of other vehicular routes (other than the thoroughfare), impacts must be addressed to provide the proper circulation throughout the development. The intersection and bridge project consists of a grade -separated interchange with SR -2501/2502, (Knightdale Eagle Rock Road) and US 64/264. The ramps, loops and Vine for the proposed interchange will be confined by the existing right-of-way that was previously acquired by the state of North Carolina. The typical section for the deceleration ramp of the proposed intersection leading from US 64/264 is a 000t paved shoulder section with a 16 -ft wide lane. The acceleration ramp leading from SR 25o1/SR 2502 has a curb -and -gutter typical section with a 20 -foot lane and 000t paved shoulders. The urban arterial leading from the US 64/264 intersection to the intersection of Martin Pond Road and Richardson Road will consist of four, 12 -ft lanes with 000t paved shoulders. The approaches to the proposed bridge will be a 2 curb -and -gutter section with a 20 -ft raised median. All other sections will have shoulders with a 4o -ft raised median. The purpose of the proposed interchange is to fulfill transportation demand through improved accessibility to the US 64 Bypass and by increasing the capacity of the existing roadway system. Increasing capacity conforms to the Wake County Transportation Plan, and is needed to accommodate community growth and its related traffic increases. Currently, Wendell Boulevard serves as the only entrance into Wendell off of US 64. Traffic volumes in 2030 on this facility are projected to be double of current traffic volumes. In addition to providing needed capacity, the proposed project is expected to alleviate existing traffic volumes on Wendell Boulevard. A secondary purpose of the proposed project is to correct existing roadway deficiencies at the intersection of Richardson Road and Martin Pond Road. The existing intersection of Richardson Road and Martin Pond Road does not meet NCDOT design standards due to limited sight distance in either direction on Martin Pond Road. The proposed project's western terminus is at the interchange leading to and from the existing US 64 Bypass at mile marker 427. The project will terminate at the intersection of Richardson Road with Wiley Oaks Road, just east of the existing intersection of SR 2502 and Martin Pond Road. 1.4) Cultural Resources On May 5, 2006, Withers & Ravenel utilized the resources provided by the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office to research and identify any historic structures potentially located within the Wendell Falls project boundaries. Withers & Ravenel found no structures listed on the National Register located within the project boundaries (see attached maps). However, two features, 1995 (Richardson Farm) and 1996 (Mattox Farm), were located within or adjacent to the project boundaries but are not currently proposed for the historic structures "study list" (SQ. We have also attached a letter from the State Historic Preservation Office stating that no known recorded archeological sites are located within the project boundaries. However, because a systematic survey has not been conducted, archeological surveys may be required, depending on the permit areas. 1.5) Endangered Species On May 5, 2oo6 Withers & Ravenel reviewed the Knightdale and Clayton Quadrangles to determine whether any known recorded federally listed species were located within the project boundaries. No known populations of federally listed species have been recorded within 0.5 miles of the proposed development. 1.6) Project History — Wendell Falls Wetlands were delineated by Withers & Ravenel in the Fall of 2oo5 and the Spring of 2oo6. Site meetings were conducted with the USACE on August 8, 2oo6 (AID#: 2oo620100). The NC-DWQ conducted site meetings on 10/14/05,11/17/05, 2/1/o6, 5/4/o6, and 9/2o/o6 to confirm our riparian buffer determinations (DWQ Project #: 05-270, 05-27oB, o6-122). Copies of the buffer letters are included with the attachments. In addition, on July 10, 2oo6, a pre -application meeting was held with NC-DWQ and the USACE to review the proposed site plan (USACE AID#: 2oo620100). The site plans have been revised slightly as per suggestions by both agencies. 1.6a) Summary of Permit Activity - Hij4hway 264 Bypass The US 64 Bypass project is located in eastern Wake County (Division 5). The project is broken into 3 -parts; Part BB, Part C and Part CC (see Appendix . The construction limits for each part are provided below: r R-2547 Part BB -New Hope Road to east of SR 26o1, includes Interchange at Hodge Road; R-2547 Part C -East of SR 26o1 to west of SR 2501, includes SR 2233 and SR 2502/2501 Interchange; and - R-2547 Part CC -SR 2502 to US 64, includes US 64 interchange. 1.6b) Permit Activity Timeline: July 1995 Draft Environmental Impact Statement was published. The Preferred alternative included the interchange at Eagle Rock Road. (Appendix B -See Figure 1) September 1995 Public Hearing was held September 26, 1995. May 1998 Final Environmental Impact Statement was published in May 1998 (See Appendix -C -Final Environmental Impact Statement). Direct impacts to wetlands were anticipated to be 25.91 acres. According to the FEIS (page 31, 2°d paragraph) NCDOT determined that the preferred alternative was the least environmentally damaging practicable alternative and the COE concurred with the corridor selection. October 1998 Record of Decision issued. September 2001 A Pre-RFQ Design -Build meeting was held on- September 28, 2001. According to the meeting notes, "NCDOT has already designed approximately 80% of the project. On the NCDOT plans, there are interchanges designed for Hodge Road, the future East Wake Expressway, Smithfield Road, future Eagle Rock Road and Taylor Road relocation, and at US 64 Business and Rolesville Road." 4 The bridge for the future interchange at relocated Eagle Rock Road and Taylor Road is not included in the structure design work that was under design contract. March 2002 The Indirect and Cumulative Impact Study Nutrient Analysis for the US 64 Bypass was completed. As requested by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, this analysis was completed using the nutrient Export Coefficient Method. The study boundary incorporates 7535 hectares (29 square miles) of developed and undeveloped land. The study boundary is bounded to the west by the Raleigh Beltline, to the north by existing US -64, to the south by Poole Road and to the east by Martin Pond Road (SR 2503) and Eagle Rock Road (SR 1003). The study assumes that the Bypass would be a limited -access roadway and include seven interchanges including Hodge Road (SR 2516), Smithfield Road (SR 2233), and Knightdale Road (SR 2501), serving the City of Raleigh, Town of Knightdale and the Town of Wendell. April 2002 NC Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Division of Water Quality (DWQ) issued Certification No. 3377 to the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) on April 10, 2002. Sites 9 and 11 were included in the certification as indicated in the Impact Summary of the application (See Appendix C-DWQ letter and design sheets).

The compensatory mitigation was for 6,254 linear feet of stream impacts and 3,648,150 square feet of buffer associated with the project. October 2003 On October 15, 2003 the NCDOT informed the Corps that it had violated its Individual Permit 200220819 and DWQ Certification No. 3377 401 by doing unauthorized mechanized clearing and fill of piedmont bottomland and alluvial forest wetlands for construction access causeways at both Poplar Creek and Marks Creek. Impacts at Popular Creek totaled 0.03 acres; impacts at Marks Creek totaled 0.71 acres. 1.7) Proposed Impacts The proposed impacts consist of 2,191 linear feet of perennial stream channel and 3.o9 acres of wetland impacts for roadway crossings and lot fill. An additional 720 linear feet of stream channel and 1.65 acres of wetlands will be temporarily impacted for the installation of a utility line. Following construction of the utility line, the stream channel will be returned to pre -construction contours. Approximately 5.51 acres (Z1:3.52, Z2: 1.99) of riparian buffer will be permanently impacted for roadways and greenway trails and 1.97 acres (Z1: 1.36, Z2: o.61) of buffer will be temporarily be impacted for the installation of utility lines. Impacts are summarized in the table below. The impacts for the proposed interchange and the subdivision are presented in separate tables and figures as per discussions with the USACE and the NC-DWQ. Additionally, although we are using arch culverts at two of the crossings and do not anticipate any stream impacts at these locations, for the time being they called out as impacts in the table below.

Impacts were minimized by the use of bottomless culverts along Wendell Parkway and by steeper fill slopes or headwalls on the secondary roads. Additionally, of the 195 acres of wetlands and over 6.5 miles of stream channel within the project boundaries, the applicant only proposes to impact 1.4 acres of wetlands and 1,024 feet of stream channel. The remaining wetlands and stream channels will be preserved in perpetuity. As part of the NEPA process for the Highway 264 bypass, a number of alternatives were examined in order to determine which alignment would be the least damaging to the environment. The decision making process is described below and at your request we can provide the environmental impact statement that was written for this project. 2.2) NCDOT Alternative Selection: Based on the NEPA review process and comments received from federal and state agencies, NCDOT chose Alternative S3-13 as the preferred alternative (See Appendix B) the US 64 Bypass and Eastern Wake Expressway. The reasons stated in the FHWA/NCDOT Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) dated May 4, 1998, include the following: Traffic: The proposed US Bypass would provide the most direct east -west connection of all alternative under consideration, saving 0.2 miles. Thoroughfare Plan/Land Use Planning_ The preferred alternative follows the conceptual location shown on the CAMPO, Knightdale and Wake County Thoroughfare Plans. Alternative S3 conforms best with locally adopted land use plans. Cultural Resources: Alternative S3 would not adversely affect any historic structures. Wetlands: While Alternative S3 would affect wetlands, the alignment at Marks Creek avoids the highest quality wetlands and takes almost all low quality wetlands. Local Government Input: Both the Town of Knightdale and Wake County has expressed preference for S# -B. The City of Raleigh has not expressed a preference. Agency Input: The Corp of Engineers, NC Wildlife Resource Commission and Division of Environmental Management support the S3 -B due to the fact that the S3 corridor eliminates impact to some very high quality wetlands (rated 100 by DEM) and shifted the impact to much lower quality wetlands (rated 29 by DEM). 10 Community Facilities: The S3 alternative will improve traffic service for police and fire protection emergency vehicle access and school transportation. No school property will be taken by any alternative. Hazardous Material Sites: The S3 alternative affects the lowest number of potential sites. Floodplains: Alternative S3 has the least amount of floodplain impact. Economic Development: The US 64 Bypass and Eastern Wake Expressway would have positive local economic impact by increasing access, providing a direct route of through and local traffic, by relieving congestion on existing streets, and by accommodating growth in eastern Wake County and in eastern North Carolina. The FEIS Summary of comparison of alternatives for the US 64 Bypass is provided in Appendix. 2.3) Comparison Summary of Proposed Alip_nment and CAMPO Plan Alignment The proposed Wendell Falls Parkway is located north of the CAMPO LRTP alignment and closer to existing developed areas (See Appendix D). The LRTP alignment and its more southern approach would encroach on existing wetlands and open up more spaces to development and decrease overall open space in Wake County; it should be noted that Wendell Falls Parkway would be built in addition to the LRTP alignment to serve the development. The Wendell Falls Parkway and accompanying thoroughfare plan would preserve the existing characteristics of land use in the surrounding areas. The Wake County Transportation Plan specifies to "create a plan that accommodates community growth and its related traffic increases," and also to "relieve existing congestion on key roadways." Wendell Falls Parkway will provide access to existing as well as the planned development in the area which could include up to 4,000 new homes, schools, medical facilities and commercial areas. It would also provide a secondary entrance and gateway into Wendell. Wendell Boulevard, which serves as the oniy entrance into Wendell off of US 64, has traffic volumes in 2030 that are projected to be double of current volumes. Wendell Falls Parkway would alleviate and provide capacity for the expected community growth and related traffic increases. The Wake County Transportation Plan provides guideline for maintaining and improving roadway safety. The intersection of Martin Pond Road and Richardson Road currently has inadequate sight distance. Intersection improvements are proposed as part of Wendell Falls Parkway. Sight distance and dedicated turn areas are slated to improve intersection safety at the intersection of Martin Pond Road and Richardson Road thereby fulfilling part of the Wake County Transportation Plan. An important goal of the Wake County Transportation Plan is to "minimize environmental impacts." The proposed Wendell Falls Parkway and thoroughfare plan have less stream impacts and avoid more pockets of wetlands than the CAMPO LRTP alignment. Another key factor to reducing environmental impacts is the fact that the Wendell Falls Parkway and accompanying thoroughfare plan provide connectivity using II existing roadway alignments. The plan makes use of existing stream crossings, existing roadway footprints, and existing infrastructure whereas the CAMPO LRTP alignment uses new construction and thereby has much greater environmental impacts. The Wendell Falls Parkway and accompanying thoroughfare plan follows the Wake County Transportation Plan in regards to minimizing environmental impacts. 2.4) Intersection Improvements/Safety The existing intersection of Richardson Road and Martin Pond Road does not meet NCDOT design standards. Due to these deficiencies the safety of this intersection is questionable. A motorist turning left or right onto Martin Pond Road from Richardson Road has limited sight distance in either direction due to the low profile of Martin Pond Road. The grade of Martin Pond Road sits in a cut with high ditch banks (See drawing below). These high ditch banks impair a motorist's ability to see oncoming traffic, especially from a driver on Richardson Road looking to the south. This impaired sight distance has dangerous ramifications; a driver may in turn pull out in front of an oncoming vehicle. Existing Intersection Significant improvements are needed at the intersection of Martin Pond Road and Richardson Road to improve public safety. Included in the proposed Wendell Falls Parkway project are significant improvements to this intersection. The roadway profile grade of Martin Pond Road would be lifted up in the vicinity of the intersection, and the southern roadway ditch graded back to increase sight distance along with other improvements. In the drawing below the proposed geometric improvements are detailed. Included in the improvements are added dedicated turn bays, improved intersection turning radii, and dedicated sight triangles. The proposed improvements would greatly increase motorist safety in the intersection; it is important to note that Martin Pond Road is not scheduled to receive any improvements by the year 2030. 12 Proposed Intersection 2.5) Stormwater Management Plan The first phase of this project will contain less than 30% impervious; therefore, we do not believe that a stormwater management plan will be required by the NC-DWQ. The applicant will utilize level spreaders in order to provide diffuse flow into the riparian buffers. The proposed impervious surface for future phases has not been quantified. If the impervious surface exceeds 30%, the applicant will provide a detailed stormwater management that meets the NC-DWQ requirements for sites located within a Nutrient Sensitive Watershed. Specifically, the applicant will utilize constructed wetlands in order to protect downstream water quality. The stormwater plans for the future phases have not been finalized, however; based on the drainage area, adequate space has been reserved for future BMP locations. We are requesting that the NC-DWQ issue the 401- approval with a condition that work will not begin on future phases until the stormwater management plans for these phases have been reviewed and approved by the NC-DWQ. Public Interest Items The USACE must also address a number of factors related to Public Interest. These items are discussed below. 3.1)Conservation: A detailed wetland delineation was conducted prior to site plan development in order to minimize impacts to jurisdictional areas to the maximum extent possible. 13 The site contains approximately 195 acres of forested wetlands and beaver impoundments and over 6.5 miles of streams and riparian buffers. With the exception of the proposed impact areas, a 5o -foot riparian buffer will be retained along all jurisdictional stream channels and the remaining wetlands (approximately 193 acres) will be preserved in perpetuity. We believe that the preservation of the wetlands/beaver impoundments and the riparian buffers will provide a refugia for the wildlife that may be displaced during the development of this tract. 3.2)Economics: The applicant would be the primary beneficiary, with the capacity to develop and offer real estate opportunities to a wide variety of citizens and entrepreneurs. This project will greatly benefit the local economy by providing jobs and services not currently located in this area. Local, state and federal tax revenues will also be increased due to the project. 3.3) Aesthetics Wendell Falls is not expected to diminish the aesthetic value of the surrounding area. As mentioned earlier in this document, 16o acres of park land is being preserved along the Marks Creek corridor and Lake Myra. All high intensity uses are proposed in close proximity to the bypass with the lower intensity uses transitioning throughout the remainder of the site. All land use buffers required by the Town of Wendell shall be provided between on-site land uses as well as adjacent off-site land uses. 3.4) General Environmental Concerns — Erosion and Sedimentation During construction, the applicant will utilize sediment basins to protect downstream water quality. If the impervious surface exceeds 30%, the applicant will provide a detailed stormwater management that meets the NC-DWQ requirements for sites located within a Nutrient Sensitive Watershed. Specifically, the applicant will utilize constructed wetlands in order to protect downstream water quality. In areas where the percent impervious is less than 3o%, the applicant will provide level spreaders to ensure that stormwater enters the buffers in a non-erosive manner. 3-5) Wetlands Prior to site plan development, the applicant requested that a detailed wetland delineation be conducted so that impacts to wetlands and `waters' could be minimized. Mr. Monte Matthews of the USACE, reviewed the delineation and agreed with our wetland boundaries (USACE 2oo620100). The NC-DWQ conducted site meetings on 10/14/05,11/17/05, 2/1/o6, and 5/4/o6 to confirm our riparian buffer determinations (DWQ Project #: 05-270, 05-27oB, o6-122). Copies of the buffer letters are included with the attachments. As mentioned above, approximately 195 acres of wetlands and 6.5 miles of stream channel are present within the project limits. 14 3.6) Historic and Cultural Resources On May 5, 2oo6, Withers & Ravenel utilized the resources provided by the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office to research and identify any historic structures potentially located within the Wendell Falls project boundaries. Withers & Ravenel found no structures listed on the National Register located within the project boundaries (see attached maps). However, two features, 1995 (Richardson Farm) and 1996 (Mattox Farm), were located within or adjacent to the project boundaries but are not currently proposed for the historic structures "study list" (SL). We have also attached a letter from the State Historic Preservation Office stating that no known recorded archeological sites are located within the project boundaries. However, because a systematic survey has not been conducted, archeological surveys may be required, depending on the permit areas. 3.7) Fish and Wildlife Values On May 5, 2oo6 Withers & Ravenel reviewed the Knightdale and Clayton Quadrangles to determine whether any known recorded federally listed species were located within the project boundaries. No known populations of federally listed - species have been recorded within 0.5 miles of the proposed development (see attached map). The project is not expected to have any adverse effect on federally listed species. 3.8) Flood Hazards Not Applicable 3-9) Floodplain Value Most of the western portion of the site is located within the floodplain. A 5o -foot riparian buffer will be maintained adjacent to the stream channels, which should reduce the amount of sediment entering the floodplain due to stormwater run-off. No structures will be placed in the floodplain; therefore we do not anticipate any hazards to structures due to flooding. Moreover, a 16o -acre park is proposed along the Mark's Creek corridor in order to preserve this area. The increased run-off from the site may increase the floodplain elevation downstream from the site. 3.1o) Land Use Land use in the surrounding area is generally rural and includes a mixture of residential homes and agricultural fields. The project will comply with local zoning ordinances. The site was chosen based on the need for additional housing in this area. 3.11) Navigation Not applicable 3.12) Shore Erosion and accretion Not applicable 15 3.13) Recreation There are currently no recreational or scenic areas within the project boundaries. Lake Myra, located near the southwest property corner may serve as a recreational area for the local residents (i.e. fishing/bird watching), however, during construction the applicant will provide the appropriate erosion controls to minimize the risk of sediment entering the Lake or its tributaries. 3.14) Water Supply At present, the water in this area is supplied by the Town of Wendell. A merger between place the City of Raleigh and the Town of Wendell is expected to take place in early October, following the merger, the water will provided by Raleigh. The increase in impervious area may is not expected to significantly affect ground water recharge, because the stormwater outfalls will be placed outside of the 5o -foot riparian buffer and a approximately 193 acres of wetlands and stream channels will be preserved. 3.15) Water Quality No major impacts to water quality are expected as a result of this project; however, turbidity may increase slightly during construction. The applicant will employ erosion control measures during construction. Additionally, the applicant will be required to meet the NC-DWQ 401 Certification requirements. Measures to protect water quality will include level spreaders at stormwater outlets, bio -retention, and stormwater wetlands. 3.16) Energy Needs Not applicable 3.17) Safety During construction the contractors will follow OSHA guidelines in order to protect the workers on-site. When completed, the entrances to the subdivision will meet the standards of the NC -DOT. 3.18) Food and Fiber Production Not applicable 3.19) Mineral Needs Not applicable 3.20) Considerations of Property Ownership Not applicable — A list of the adjacent property owners is included with the attachments. 16 4) Mitigation Because impacts to perennial channels exceed 150 linear feet and wetlands impacts are greater than o.1 acres, the applicant proposes payment to the NC-EEP and/or preservation to satisfy mitigation requirements. As stated above, the proposed interchange was previously permitted and mitigation was paid for these impacts, however we have included these impacts in our mitigation request and may amend the mitigation amounts pending additional discussions with the USACE and/or NC- DWQ. Please feet free to call if you have questions or require additional information. Sincerely, WITHERS & RAVENEL, INC.

Office of Archives and I iistory Division of Ilistorieal Resources David Brook, Director There are no known recorded archaeological sites within the project boundaries. However, the project area has never been systematically surveyed to determine the location or significance of archaeological resources. There are several areas within the 1200 -acre project boundaries that contain a high probability for the presence of Native American and historic period archaeological sites. After the Army Corps of Engineers permit area is delineated, please forward that information to us so we may recommend any necessary archaeological investigations to be conducted prior to any ground disturbing activities. The map that accompanied your letter shows the Richardson Farm as being located outside the project boundaries, although earlier maps we examined for the project included this property. While it may not be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places for architecture, this nineteenth century farmstead may contain significant archaeological resources. If the farmstead and the cemetery are part of this project and included within the permit area, testing should be undertaken to determine the presence of such resources. The cemetery should be treated in accordance with the provisions of North Carolina General Statutes Chapter 65 if it will be affected. The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR Part 800.
