4a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application:*
The majority of the epsting stream reaches and wetland areas have been significantly altered as a result of historic and current agricultural practices on the site including ditching,
culverting of the stream, and stream channelization. These practices have altered the hydrology of the site and has allowed unfiltered flowof sediment and excess nutrients from
agricultural use. See section 3 of the Mitigation Plan for more detail.
4b. Have Corps permits or DWR certifications been obtained for this project (including all prior phases) in the past?*
f Yes r No r Unknown
4d. Attach an 8 1/2 X 11 excerpt from the most recent version of the USGS topographic map indicating the location of the project site. (for DWR)

4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
20.52

4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
10,181
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
The primary purpose of the project is to restore, enhance, preserve and protect approximately 11,342 linear feet of stream and 118.7 acres of wetlands which flowdirectly into the
Neuse River approximately 0.4 miles belowthe project site. See section 2 of the attached Mitigation Plan for specific goals and objectives intended to improve aquatic resource
functions.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*
The proposed stream restoration, enhancement, and preservation activities will be conducted on 8 stream reaches in the project area which are unnamed tributaries to the Neuse River.
Activities will consist of filling the impaired/channelized portions of existing streams and restoring natural floodplain connections within reaches. Further work to fill non -jurisdictional
agricultural ditches on the site will enhance and re-establish approximately 118 acres of wetlands on the site. Work will be conducted using track hoe excavators, dump trucks, tractors
with disk harrow or rippers, and other equipment typically used in restoration projects for channel construction, minor floodplain grading and in -stream structure installation. See
Mitigation Plan for proposed restoration practices and design approaches for each of the 8 stream reaches as well as common construction elements.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation ,�;
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Proposed stream and wetland impacts and mitigation approaches are necessary to restore 9,591 LF of stream, enhance 590 LF of stream, preserve
3.33 acres of wetland, enhance 7.92 acres of wetlands, and restore 107.4 acres of wetlands all which flow directly to the Neuse River system.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Sedimentation and Erosion Control measures will be implemented during the construction phase per the NCDEMLR - Land Quality S&EC Planning and
Design Manual and approved permit conditions. The stream restoration work will involve filling the old degraded channel and constructing stable
design channels. The contractor will work outside the degraded stream banks and only enter the channel from specific locations designated on the
plans to minimize buffer disturbances. A pump-around/dewatering operation will be utilized to minimize sediment entering downstream.
