Dear Mr. Medall:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact 0.10
acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of construction for a residential area in Charlotte, as you described
in your application dated June 15, 1998. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this impact is
covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3108. This certification allows you to use
Nationwide Permit Number 26 when it is issued by the Corps of Engineers. 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.
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 for a new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this
Certification and approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. 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.
Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed in lots with remaining jurisdictional wetlands
and waters to restrict future wetland and/or impact. These mechanisms shall be put in place within 30 days of
the date of this letter or the issuance of the 404 Permit (whichever is later).
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 conforming to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative
Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 276 1 1-7447. This certification and its conditions are final and

Re: Foltntaingrove - ± 100 Acres.
Dear Sirs;
On behalf of my client, Mr. Tim Medall of Rhein Interests, I am requesting confirmation of eligibility to
remove a ±1.60 acre pond and fill a small drained pond area of ± 0.10 acre, and pipe a spring/seep area to a
stream of approximately ± 0.10 acre utilizing NWP #26 The darn op the + 1.60 acre pond is in very 120or
condition The intent of the plan is to remove he am and allow he natural stream to re-establish Based on
a review of the stream upstream of the pond, the tributary exhibited persistent pools and/or saturated
channel bottom; evidence of macro-invertebrates; reduced soils; algae; hydrophytic vegetation in or adjacent
to the channel; evidence of wildlife utilizing the stream; and manifested sandy and gravelly channel substrate.
As depicted on the plan and in this report the developer has taken great care in avoiding this stream on the
site plan. A 60' wide undisturbed corridor (± 30'/side) will be provided to protect the re-established
stream. The buffer areas will be seeded with a natural grasses to allow succession to begin. The developer
may choose to add trees or shrubs enhance succession and for aesthetic value. Based on an analysis of the
surrounding topography is appears that the base of the pond will have a moderate to steep side slopes. The
remaining streams on the site are not expected to be impacted.
BACKGROUND
The proposed residential development is on approximately 100 acres in north Mecklenburg County, North
Carolina. This area of Mecklenburg County is experiencing rapid economic and population growth especially
in conjunction with the Charlotte Outer Belt, which passes south of the site. Current land use in the vicinity
is single family subdivisions and agricultural land. There are approximately 2.30 acres of jurisdictional
surface waters (1.70 acres ponds, 2000 if streams) and wetlands on the project site. All fill material will be
unpolluted and appropriate measures to control sedimentation and erosion will be employed. Wetlands and
streams which will not be disturbed will be protected during construction from damage due to construction
traffic, drainage and other forms of disturbance.

Mr. Steve Chapin - USACE, Mr. John R Dorney, Mr. Mike Parker - NCDWQ
Request for NWP 26
The remaining streams and wetlands will be protected by restrictive covenants and the hydrology to the
remaining wetlands and streams will be maintained and enhanced by utilizing the storm drainage system
which will increase their water storage, pollution removal, bank stabilization, and aquatic life functions.

Water Classification - C
The pond, wetlands, and streams are headwaters of Stony Creek which are part of the Yadkin River Basin
and currently classified a Class C - aquatic life propagation and survival, fishing, wildlife, secondary
recreation, and agriculture.
WETLANDS PERMITTING AND MITIGATION
The subdivision layout minimizes impacts to the perennial and intermittent tributaries. Except for temporary
construction and development impacts, we believe that the proposed project will not cause significant
impacts to the ecological functions or values of Jurisdictional Waters of the U. S.

Avoidance, Mipim nation, and Mitigation
The following avoidance and minimization efforts and measures will also be taken:
Best Management Practices will also be employed to minimize impacts to Jurisdictional Waters. These will
include:
a) Siltation Barriers; Sediment Traps and Diversion Ditches
b) Barricades to define construction limits to sensitive sites and to protect trees
c) Preconstruction meetings
d) Vehicular access will be restricted to specific areas to avoid disturbance to adjacent wetlands and
natural areas to be preserved.
e) Methods to prevent short term impacts will be inspected regularly and maintained during
construction of the project.
f) Wetlands to be preserved will be clearly marked prior to construction to prevent accidental damage
to wetlands. The contractors will be held responsible for unauthorized wetland damage not
permitted according to plans and specifications. Preconstruction meetings shall be held if necessary
with representatives of the USACE and the NCDWQ.
g) Short term construction impacts, primarily stream sedimentation will affect aquatic habitat,
however this will be minimized to the extent practicable to promote rapid recovery.
h) Project construction will strictly adhere to an approved Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan.
Best Management Practices will include utilizing siltation trapping ponds and other erosion control
structures where appropriate. Impacts from hazardous materials and other toxins to fish and
aquatic life such as fuels will be avoided by not permitting staging areas to be located near surface
waters.
i) As required by the 401 Water Quality Certification conditions, measures will be taken to prevent
"live" or fresh concrete from coming into contact with waters until the concrete has hardened.
PROPOSED COMPENSATORYMITIGATION
A mitigation plan will be developed for a "no net loss" of wetland habitat, value, and function to the extent
feasible on this site. The"of this plan is to preserve, protect, the extents of the existing wetlands and
streams.
A minimum 30' natural buffer consisting of existing woodland along streams will be maintained. The buffer
area will be protected by silt fence and seeded with a natural grass mixture in lieu of turf grasses such as
fescue.
Employment of strict erosion and sediment control procedures will be specified to avoid impacts to water
quality. Existing wetlands and surface waters and buffer areas will be protected from erosion and
sedimentation during construction and installation of the mitigation sites. Control structures such as
sedimentation traps, siltation barriers, and/or at a minimum silt fence will be utilized as necessary.
These mitigation areas will be constructed concurrently with grading operations involving permitted wetland
impacts.
The preserved streams and wetlands will be protected from future impacts by the applicant or by a group
designated by the applicant for this purpose. Development of these areas will be deed restricted in
accordance with restrictive covenants which will be developed for approval by the USACE and/or NCDWQ.

THREATENED AN ENDANGERED SPECIES
Federally listed plant and animal species with endangered or threatened status are protected under the
Endangered Species Act of 1973. The US Fish and Wildlife Service has identified two endangered species -
Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), and the Carolina heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata).
Schweinitz's sunflower thrives in full sun characteristic of successional fields, margins, and forested
openings. Most of the site is in old field succession consist of dense blackberry, lespedeza, cedar. and pine,
and does not appear to be conducive to the habitat of Schweimtz's sunflower.
The Carolina heelsplitter is a freshwater mussel which prefers shaded areas either in a ponded portion of a
small stream or in runs along steep banks with moderate current. Primary habitat are waters less than three
feet deep with a soft mud, muddy sand, or shady gravelly substrate. It is normally restricted to protected
silted areas or under banks especially associated with obstructions such as stumps or fallen trees. Its current
distribution according to the US Fish and Wildlife Service is limited to portions of two streams -- Goose
Creek and Waxhaw Creek - and a small river originating from rural areas in Union County. Therefore it is
not expected to occur on this site.
State Protected Species
The Carolina Darter (Etheostoma collis) is a fish that inhabits small streams such as those found in the
project area. This species has a federal status of Proposed Special Concern and a state status of Special
Concern. The species prefers small clear streams of less than 15' width with moderate to swift current and a
sand/gravel benthic composition. It apparently tolerates a wide range of water quality conditions and
vegetation types adjacent to the streams and appears resistant to pollution. (E. Menhinick). Therefore, strict
adherence to an approved erosion and sedimentation control plan will be maintained during the construction
period in order to control degradation of water quality.
CULTURAL RESOURCES
Based on a review of the USGS maps inspected at the Office of State Archaeology and the Survey and
Planning Office no sites were indicated that are on or potentially eligible for the National Register of Historic
Places.
AQUATIC HABITAT
The aquatic systems in the project area consist of headwater wetlands, intermittent tributaries, and ponds. A
variety of wildlife is supported by these systems including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects,
mollusks, and crustaceans. Therefore strict adherence to an approved erosion and sedimentation control plan
will be maintained during the construction period in order to control degradation of water quality
downstream and protect the areas to be preserved. Short term construction impacts, primarily stream
sedimentation will affect aquatic habitat, however this will be minimized to the extent practicable to promote
rapid recovery. Project construction will strictly adhere to an approved sedimentation and erosion control
plan. Best Management Practices will include utilizing siltation trapping ponds and other erosion control
structures where appropriate. Impacts from hazardous materials and other toxins to fish and aquatic fife
such as fuels will be avoided by not permitting staging areas to be located near surface waters. Also, as
required by the 401 Water Quality Certification conditions, measures will be taken to prevent "live" or fresh
concrete from coming into contact with waters until the concrete has hardened. Aquatic resources are
expected to be enhanced through the restoration of wetland areas that flood and pond for longer durations.

CONCLUSION
The approximate 100 acre residential development has been designed to balance the site's economic viability
with its environmental value. The goal of the Site Plan and Mitigation Plan is to help balance the
environmental consequences of this development by preserving the most valuable Jurisdictional Waters of
the U.S. on the site. The undisturbed streams and wetland areas will be preserved by the applicant or by a
group designated by the owner for this purpose.
Please contact me if you have any questions or require additional explanation. Thank you for your
consideration.
