COMMENTS:
In the RRO's opinion, the proposed areas of wetland impacts occur
-within 50 feet of 2 intermittent stream channels. SITE #1 on the.
attached map is denoted on the most recently published U. S . G. S . map
-as an intermittent blue-line stream. SITE #2 however, does not.
appear on the U.S.G.S. map, but is in the opinion of the RRO an
- intermittent channel based on the criteria established by the.
Environmental Sciences Lab (12/3/96). As a result, the acreage
-- requested (.53 acres) is likely over the 1/3 acre threshold within.,
50 feet of a stream and therefore may require minimization
- especially in wetland areas within SITE #1 (Rating= 47). This area.
was judged by the RRO to be in possession of some "significant
uses" which would likely be "removed" or "degraded" by the proposed.
activity. However, this project was submitted WITHOUT a delineated
= wetland boundary map. As a result, it is difficult to determine.
where (and to what extent) the impacts occur. In order to properly,
- assess this project, the RRO believes that a delineated wetland:
boundary map is needed and that this project should be placed on
- hold until such time.

US Army Corps of Engineers - Regulatory
Attn: Mr. Eric Alsmeyer
6508 Falls of the Neuse Road
Suite 120 .
Raleigh, NC 27615
The purpose of this letter is to request a Nationwide Permit 26 and a 401 Water
Quality Certification for the project to be known as Woodridge. The project is
located near Apex, north of Olive Chapel Road (SR 1160) and west of Kelly Road
in Wake County, as shown on the enclosed plans and vicinity map.
Fill in Waters of the U.S. will be required to construct roads, lots and a
stormwater pond for a residential development It will be necessary to fill 0.53
acres of wetlands and Waters of the U.S. above headwaters for placement of the
proposed facilities. Due to the small size of jurisdictional areas, we do not
propose to have the wetlands surveyed. Such work would be an unjust cost to
our client since impacts to wetlands are clearly. more than 1/3 acre but less than
1 acre.
If you intend to perform a site visit, please call and we can arrange for someone

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and
Rhein Interests
Attn: Richard Westmoreland

Dear Mr. Westmoreland:
ED F= F=1
January 15, 1997
Wake County
DWQ Project # 961104
ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
You have our approval to place fill material in 0.53 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of
constructing roads and lots at Woodridge subdivision, as you described in your application dated 25 November
1996. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality
Certification Number 2671. This certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 26 when it is
issued by the Corps of Engineers.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application except as
modified below. If you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new
application. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory
mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to be
valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed
below. A deed restriction or conservation easement shall be added to all remaining streams and wetlands to
prevent future fill. These areas shall be surveyed and a copy of the survey sent to DWQ Central Office. In
addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project
including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water
Supply Watershed regulations. This approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit
expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing.
You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written
petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of
Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and its conditions
are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water
Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Domey at 919-733-1786.
Sincerely,
NG
