AND STORMWATER BRANCH
Two years ago the NCDOT informed the fire department of
the widening of Hwy. 24 /27 from Albemarle to Charlotte.
Their original plan showed them taking our building.
Although subsequent plans showed them taking our building
then not taking it, the last plans we were shown had them
leaving the building but taking some of our road frontage.
Currently we are in a 48 year old building. The building we
occupy is a standard fire dept. 50 yrs. ago whereas we have
to back our trucks into the building from the highway. We
now have to pull out into the hwy. with heavy traffic to put our
trucks up. So we took on the task of doing a land search for
the purpose of building a new fire dept. This was a daunting
task for a small community like ours. So we found some land
beside of Endy Elementary School that was 6.7 acres. This
was not a perfect place but it would serve a three-fold
purpose. The first being a emergency services facility, the
second a secondary evacuation route for the school and the
third a disaster relief shelter in cases of natural disasters. So
we purchased the land from a brother and sister, one in
California and the other in Georgia without any idea we
would have a wetlands problem. The wetlands problem
surfaced when we had the survey done to build our new
dept. We obtained a permit for a soil and erosion plan and a
driveway permit to Betty Road. We were going to build the
driveway to connect to 24 /27 later after the building was
constructed.
1 e-mailed pictures and had a conversation with Alan
Johnson from the DWQ office in Mooresville. He informed
me that it looked like we had a wetlands area and informed

me of the 1/10 of an acre disturbance rule. So after the
building was completed we started figuring out how we could
build the driveway without disturbing the wetlands area too
much. We hired a grading contractor to construct the
driveway and obtained a driveway permit to connect to 24 /
27 from the NCDOT.
As you can see from our plan view we made a curve in the
road coming out of the dept. to go around the wetlands area
and still stay on our property. The ideal road would have
been a straight shot to 24 / 27, which would have destroyed
most of the wetland area. It cost us $10,000 extra to have
the road curved because of the extra grading and filling.
We got some discretionary money from the state to pave
from the dept. to hwy. 24 /27. We thought everything was ok
until we saw an e-mail that told the state they may be liable
for any corrections that had to be made if they went ahead
and paved it. The e-mail was dated 8-26 and we found out
about it on 9-13. So we contacted Polly Lespinasse with the
DWQ office in Mooresville. She came and met with us on 9-
30 to discuss our process for getting an after the fact
ermit. We also walked down and looked at the driveway
and she pointed out some minor things that we needed to
correct which we are in the process of doing.
We are in somewhat of a time crunch also. The state
doesn't like to pave after 10-15. So we are trying to get this
done as soon as possible The state told us they would pave
as soon as the permit is issued.
As far as some of the questions on the permit application,
Polly and myself wasn't clear if this would be considered an
isolated or connected wetlands area. But we feel we
disturbed under a 1/10 of an acre regardless.
All of the streams and wetlands are still there after the
driveway was built. In years of normal rainfall these areas
are all dried up. We took some pictures of the area before
the road was built and you could walk across the pond
without getting your feet wet and there was no water in
streams. Had we not had 15" of rain in the last month there
wouldn't be any water now. The cattails in the pond are still
there, but in normal conditions they just dry up. In wet
weather they come back. The year we did the survey was
the wettest year on record. If we had built the year before or
the year after it would have probably not made it on a survey
map.
The old 24 / 27 roadbed crosses right where the wetlands
are. The state many years ago left the old road culverts there
plus an old dam that is clogged up which led to an
accumulation of water.
In closing let me say that the fire dept. has done everything
possible to make this a project that all of the community can
be proud of. The only funds that are available to us are the
fire district taxes (Endy's is the lowest in the county), and our
two annual bbq's that we have. This completed project is
going to cost us around $800,000 dollars. This is a huge
amount for us, so any help we can get or beg for is greatly
appreciated. Our dept. has no paid personnel and is made
up of 50 volunteers that answered over 200 emergency calls
last year. With the added presssure of a bigger hwy. going
through our district will only put added demands on our
services. If you have any questions please feel free to
contact me. Thank you.

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
Page 9 of 12
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as
incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration
in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
hqp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetla'nds/strinaide.httnl.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP).. Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/)M/index.htm. If use of

Cover Letter DENR - WATER QUALITY
WETLANDS AND STORMWATER BRANCH
Two years ago the NCDOT informed the fire department of
the widening of Hwy. 24 /27 from Albemarle to Charlotte.
Their original plan showed them taking our building.
Although subsequent plans showed them taking our building
then not taking it, the last plans we were shown had them
leaving the building but taking some of our road frontage.
Currently we are in a 48 year old building. The building we
occupy is a standard fire dept. 50 yrs. ago whereas we have
to back our trucks into the building from the highway. We
now have to pull out into the hwy. with heavy traffic to put our
trucks up. So we took on the task of doing a land search for
the purpose of building a new fire dept. This was a daunting
task for a small community like ours. So we found some land
beside of Endy Elementary School that was 6.7 acres. This
was not a perfect place but it would serve a three-fold
purpose. The first being a emergency services facility, the
second a secondary evacuation route for the school and the
third a disaster relief shelter in cases of natural disasters. So
we purchased the land from a brother and sister, one in
California and the other in Georgia without any idea we
would have a wetlands problem. The wetlands problem
surfaced when we had the survey done to build our new
dept. We obtained a permit for a soil and erosion plan and a
driveway permit to Betty Road. We were going to build the
driveway to connect to 24 /27 later after the building was
constructed.
I e-mailed pictures and had a conversation with Alan
Johnson from the DWQ office in Mooresville. He informed
me that it looked like we had a wetlands area and informed
me of the 1/10 of an acre disturbance rule. So after the
building was completed we started figuring out how we could
build the driveway without disturbing the wetlands area too
much. We hired a grading contractor to construct the
driveway and obtained a driveway permit to connect to 24 /
27 from the NCDOT.
As you can see from our plan view we made a curve in the
road coming out of the dept. to go around the wetlands area
and still stay on our property. The ideal road would have
been a straight shot to 24 / 27, which would have destroyed
most of the wetland area. It cost us $10,000 extra to have
the road curved because of the extra grading and filling.
We got some discretionary money from the state to pave
from the dept. to hwy. 24 /27. We thought everything was ok
until we saw an e-mail that told the state they may be liable
for any corrections that had to be made if they went ahead
and paved it. The e-mail was dated 8-26 and we found out
about it on 9-13. So we contacted Polly Lespinasse with the
DWQ office in Mooresville. She came and met with us on 9-
30 to discuss our process for getting an after the fact
permit. We also walked down and looked at the driveway
and she pointed out some minor things that we needed to
correct which we are in the process of doing.
We are in somewhat of a time crunch also. The state
doesn't like to pave after 10-15. So we are trying to get this
done as soon as possible The state told us they would pave
as soon as the permit is issued.
As far as some of the questions on the permit application,
Polly and myself wasn't clear if this would be considered an
isolated or connected wetlands area. But we feel we
disturbed under a 1/10 of an acre regardless.
All of the streams and wetlands are still there after the
driveway was built. In years of normal rainfall these areas
are all dried up. We took some pictures of the area before
the road was built and you could walk across the pond
without getting your feet wet and there was no water in
1
streams. Had we not had 15" of rain in the last month there
wouldn't be any water now. The cattails in the pond are still
there, but in normal conditions they just dry up. In wet
weather they come back. The year we did the survey was
the wettest year on record. If we had built the year before or
the year after it would have probably not made it on a survey
map.
The old 24 / 27 roadbed crosses right where the wetlands
are. The state many years ago left the old road culverts there
plus an old dam that is clogged up which led to an
accumulation of water.
In closing let me say that the fire dept. has done everything
possible to make this a project that all of the community can
be proud of. The only funds that are available to us are the
fire district taxes (Endy's is the lowest in the county), and our
two annual bbq's that we have. This completed project is
going to cost us around $800,000 dollars. This is a huge
amount for us, so any help we can get or beg for is greatly
appreciated. Our dept. has no paid personnel and is made
up of 50 volunteers that answered over 200 emergency calls
last year. With the added presssure of a bigger hwy. going
through our district will only put added demands on our
services. If you have any questions please feel free to
contact me. Thank you.

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
Page 9 of 12
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as
incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration
in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
hM?://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetla'nds/strinizide.html.
