4f. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
The purpose of the project is to install a new gravity sewer to serve existing and future residential developments
within the west -central portion of the Union County Public Works Department's Twelve -Mile Creek service area.
Construction of the newgravity sewer will allowfor the decommissioning and demolition of three existing pump
stations, including Brookhaven Pump Station, Scotch Meadows Pump Station, and Grace Meadows Pump Station.
The project will allow Union County to meet the increasing wastewater demands in the service area.
4g. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*
Approximately 4.8 miles of gravity sewer line will be installed along West Fork Twelve -Mile Creek using open cut
techniques. A majority of the new gravity sewer line will be installed within wooded, undeveloped areas. West Fork
Twelve -Mile Creek will be traversed eleven times and three unnamed tributaries to West Fork Twelve -Mile Creek
will be crossed once each by the pipe. Additionally, portions of six wetlands will be traversed by the wastewater
line. Crossing of the streams and wetlands by the pipe will not result in loss of jurisdictional waters of the U.S.;
however, conversion of forested wetlands to non -forested wetlands will occur in a small portion of two wetlands.
All stream crossings will be performed within 15 degrees of perpendicular and all stream work will be performed in
the dry. During construction activities, temporary stone dams will be placed upstream and downstream of the area
of disturbance, and the stream will be pumped around the dammed area. Fords will be installed at eight of the
fifteen (15) stream crossings during construction. The fords will be permanent, as required to maintain accessibility
to the wastewater transmission line for emergency and maintenance activities. The remaining seven stream
crossings will be accomplished with temporary bridges.
Installation of the permanent fords will consist of excavation of the area in which the ford will be installed with
temporary sidecasting of the stream sediments. Articulated open -cell blocks or rip rap will be placed within the
excavated area to a level that is approximately 6 inches below the existing bed of the stream. Final selection of the
material will be made by the contractor. Excavated streambed material will be placed over the articulated open -cell
blocks or rip rap to the elevation of the pre -construction streambed.
Indirect impacts of the project are anticipated to be beneficial. Construction of the project will allowfor new and
existing construction to discharge to municipal sewer versus individual septic systems or conveyed via pump
stations. Equipment anticipated to be used during the proposed gravity sewer line installation include backhoes,
front-end loaders, dump trucks, and cranes. Details of proposed activities, such as temporary stream bypass, anti -
seep collars, temporary bridges, and permanent fords, are provided on the design drawings submitted in
conjunction with this permit application.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
i W -ANO .F Zi T. irsI yIIIMFr tiTil
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:*
Avoidance of all impacts is possible only with a no -build alternative, which does not meet the need of the project.
During design, the project corridor was positioned to avoid jurisdictional wetlands, where feasible. Where
avoidance of jurisdictional wetlands was not possible due to constraints, the limits of disturbance were reduced to
the extent practicable.
Avoidance of the streams within the project corridor is not feasible. Stream crossings were designed to reduce the
limits of disturbance. All crossings are designed to be within 15 degrees of perpendicular. Permanent subsurface
fords were designed to allow access to the pipe corridor while providing for a natural streambed.
The design of the project includes placement of anti -seep collars on the pipe upgradient and/or downgradient of
jurisdictional areas.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:*
Impacts to jurisdictional areas during construction will be limited to the extent feasible by performing as much work
as is possible from upland areas. In areas of impact, silt fencing will be placed upgradient of the jurisdictional
areas and all construction activity will be performed upgradient of the silt fencing. All disturbed areas will be
returned to original grade and seeded with a native seed mix within 90 days of completion of the project. Swamp
matting will be used where appropriate in wetland areas. Excavation of the pipe trench will be performed as
prescribed by the USACE in jurisdictional areas and side casting of excavated material into abutting wetland areas
will be avoided to the extent feasible.
