WATER QUALITY SECTION
This letter is in response to your letter dated January 20, 2004 (copy attached), which requested additional
information for the proposed Battleridge Subdivision. The following restates your request as shown on
your letter and then provides our response.
1. Please show all stream impacts inchiding all fill slopes, dissipaters, and bank stabilization on the
site plan. Provide information concerning the stream feature depicted at the Northeast corner of
the site plan tit•ith respect to where the Raleigh Regional office has determined the stream begins
("NBR Flag 01').
The attached impact maps depict all proposed impacts within the proposed road crossing. The edge of
the proposed fill has been labeled and the edge of pavement is shown with darkened lines. Please find
the attached copy of the Neuse Buffer letter written by Mr. Steve Mitchell (DWQ-Raleigh Regional
Office) on February 28, 2002. On the backside of Mr. Mitchell's letter is a copy of the delineation
map, which depicts the location of the starting point for the buffered feature. This "start point" is
approximately 60-70' inside the delineated USACE approved wetland line. No impacts are proposed
in this area or with the buffers on this feature.
2. Please provide cross section details showing the provisions for aquatic life passage for the road
crossing.
Please find the attached cross sectional sketch of the proposed crossing provided by the project
engineer. The drawing shows the 42" culvert buried as per regulations "equal to or greater than 20%,"
which in this case is 9 inches to allow for aquatic life passage.
3. Please locate any planned setrer lines on the site.
All proposed sewer lines are shown on the attached map. An existing previously permitted sewer
crossing occurs downstream of the proposed road crossing and is labeled "Existing Sewer Line."
Another utility line is present upstream of the proposed road crossing and has been in place prior to the
Clean Water Act. There are no new proposed sewer line impacts to wetlands, streams, or buffers.

Dear Mr. Clark:
I have reviewed the maps that you have submitted for the project referenced by the Raleigh Regional Office
as NBRRO-02-041. An evaluation of the stream features was performed on February 5, 2002 to determine
whether the site would require compliance with the Neuse Buffer Rule.
The features represented on the Wake County Soils and the USGS topographic maps were evaluated
to determine their subjectivity to the Neuse Buffer Rule. It was determined that there are two features
represented that are is subject to the Neuse River Basin-Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy:
Protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Areas, Administrative Code T15A:02B.0233 (NCAC
0233). Feature A is subject from NBR Flag 01 and feature B is subject through the property.
This letter addresses only those issues involving the riparian area. For information relative to the Wetlands
401/404 issues, please contact Mr. John Dorney at 919-733-1786. Thank you for your attention to this matter
and if this Office can be of any assistance or if you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to
contact me at 571- 4700.

Re: Reply to the Division of Water Quality's December 17, 2003 letter
Battleridge Subdivision
Garner, Wake County, North Carolina

Dear Mr. Dorney:
This letter is in response to your letter dated December 17, 2003 (copy attached), which requested
additional information for the proposed Battleridge Subdivision. The following restates your request as
shown on your letter and then provides our response.
1. Have the USArnry Corps of Engineers determined this project to be a .separate and complete
project from Chastain Subdivision (D IVQ Projcct AV 02-1049)? If not and Ihe'v hate determined
it to be part of Chastain Subcliti•ision, them the amount of lcetland impacts it-ill exceed the
mitigation threshold of one (1) acre and the Dli'Q still require mitigation: for all past and
proposal sretlancl impacts (if approved).
The US Anny Corps of Engineers (USACE) has detenmined the proposed Battleridge Subdivision to be
a separate and complete project from the Chastain Subdivision because the two subdivisions are
currently under separate ownership; the two subdivisions will not share road access, etc. The USACE
has issued the 404 permit for this project (see attached) as separate from the Chastain Subdivision. I do
not have a written determination from the USACE that states that the two projects are separate so if you
need to verify this with the USACE please call Ms. Jennifer Burdette at 876-8441 (ext 22). Because
the two projects are separate and because the proposed impacts for Battleridge are less than those
requiring mitigation, no mitigation is proposed.
Please call if you have any questions or require further explanation.
Sincerely,
Sean Clark

REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
To Whom It May Concern:
On October 29, 2003, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated October 29, 2003
to impact 0.4977 acres of wetlands, 108 feet of stream and 10,696 square feet (ft2) of protected riparian buffers
to construct the proposed residential subdivision. The DWQ has determined that your application was
incomplete and/or provided inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional
information in order to process your application to impact protected wetland, streams and/or buffers on the
subject property. Therefore, unless we receive the additional information requested below, we will have to
move toward denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506 and 2B.0233(8) and will place this
project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information. Please provide the following
information so that we may continue to review your project.
Additional Information:
• Cumulative Impacts
Have the US Army Corps of Engineers determined this project to be a separate and complete project from
Chastain Subdivision (DWQ Project No. 02-1049)? If not and they have determined it to be part of Chastain
Subdivision, then the amount of wetland impacts will exceed the mitigation threshold of one (1) acre and the
DWQ will require mitigation for all past and proposed wetland impacts (if approved).
Please respond within three weeks of the date of this letter by sending this information to me in writing and
Steve Mitchell of the DWQ Raleigh Regional Office. If we do not hear from you within three weeks, we will
assume that you no longer want to pursue this project and we will consider the project as withdrawn.
This letter only addresses the application review and does not authorize any impacts to wetlands, waters or
protected buffers. Please be aware that any impacts requested within your application are not authorized (at
this time) by the DWQ. Please call Mr. Steve Mitchell at 919-571-4700 if you have any questions regarding or
would like to set up a meeting to discuss this matter.

REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
To Whom It May Concern:
On October 29, 2003, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated October 29, 2003
to impact 0.4977 acres of wetlands, 108 feet of stream and 10,696 square feet (ft) of protected riparian buffers
to construct the proposed residential subdivision. The DWQ has determined that your application was
incomplete and/or provided inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require additional
information in order to process your application to impact protected wetland, streams and/or buffers on the
subject property. Therefore, unless we receive the additional information requested below, we will have to
move toward denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506 and 213 .0233(8) and will place this
project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information. Please provide the following
information so that we may continue to review your project.
Additional Information:
• Cumulative Impacts
Have the US Army Corps of Engineers determined this project to be a separate and complete project from
Chastain Subdivision (DWQ Project No. 02-1049)? If not and they have determined it to be part of Chastain
Subdivision, then the amount of wetland impacts will exceed the mitigation threshold of one (1) acre and the
DWQ will require mitigation for all past and proposed wetland impacts (if approved).
Please respond within three weeks of the date of this letter by sending this information to me in writing and
Steve Mitchell of the DWQ Raleigh Regional Office. If we do not hear from you within three weeks, we will
assume that you no longer want to pursue this project and we will consider the project as withdrawn.
This letter only addresses the application review and does not authorize any impacts to wetlands, waters or
protected buffers. Please be aware that any impacts requested within your application are not authorized (at
this time) by the DWQ. Please call Mr. Steve Mitchell at 919-571-4700 if you have any questions regarding or
would like to set up a meeting to discuss this matter.

RE: Nationwide Permit 39, 401-certification, and Neuse River Basin Buffer Rules
Battleridge Residential Subdivision
Garner, Wake County, North Carolina
(Site Coordinates -78.534656, 35.735799)
Dear Ms. Burdette and Mr. Domey:
On behalf of Mr. Jerry Gower, (property owner), we hereby request authorization from
the US Army Corps of Engineers to utilize Nationwide Permit 39 for proposed permanent
impacts to a perennial stream channel and an adjacent wetland resulting from the
construction of a proposed road crossing to service the Battleridge North Subdivision.
We also request written concurrence from the NC Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ)
that the project meets the 401 Water Quality Certification for the requested NWPs and
complies with the Neuse River Basin (NRB) Buffer Rules. A Pre-construction
Notification Application (PCN) is attached and an Agent Authorization Form.
The wetland delineation for the site was approved on January 31, 2001 (Action ID
#200120236). S&EC did not do the associated fieldwork for this project. A previous
permit was issued on March 13, 2002 for the construction of a sewer lisle to service the
Chastain Subdivision adjacent to the property. According to a file search of the USACE
records no other 404 permits exist on the Battleridge North Subdivision site.
The proposed road crossing is required to access the southern portion of the property. A
stream channel that flows east to west bisects the property. Due to the shape and
orientation of wetlands along the stream channel, access to the southern portion of the
property will result in wetland/stream impacts. However, to minimize these impacts, the
proposed road corridor will cross the wetland at a perpendicular angle and at one of the
narrowest points of the wetland area. The flow of the channel does not run perfectly

parallel with the wetland boundary lines and therefore the stream channel impact angle is
not perpendicular. If the channel were crossed at a perpendicular angle in an effort to
decrease' impacts to the channel length and the buffers, a greater amount of wetland
impact would be required because the wetlands would not be crossed at a perpendicular
angle. Permanent impacts to wetlands will total 0.4977 acres and permanent impacts to
stream channels will total 108 linear feet. Proposed buffer impacts due to the road
crossing total 10,696 ftZ (0.2456 acre). The proposed road crossing will comply with the
general conditions of Nationwide Permit 39.
The NC DWQ does not require stream mitigation for permanent perennial stream impacts
that total less than 150 linear feet per project. DWQ also does not require mitigation for
wetland impacts that total less than 1 acre per project or for buffer impacts that are less
than 1/3 acre per road crossing. The USACE may require stream mitigation for impacts
to important streams or for impacts to wetlands that exceed 1/10 acre, however because
impacts have been avoided to the maximum extent practicable and because the majority
of the jurisdictional areas onsite are not being disturbed, no mitigation is proposed.
Please call me or email me at _S_Clark cpSandEC.com if you have any questions or if a site
meeting will be required.
Sincerely,

Sean Clark
Environmental Scientist

portions of the proiect otherwise bisected by the buffered stream and adjacent wetland.
IV. Prior Project History
If jurisdictional determinations and/or permits have been requested and/or obtained for this
project (including all prior phases of the same subdivision) in the past, please explain. Include
the USACE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and
certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits,
certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and
buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project,
list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.I.P. project, along with
construction schedules.
The wetlands on site were approved in 2000 (Action ID 4200021450). The original delineation
was done on a larger tract which was divided into two smaller tracts. The other portion of the
original tract was sold to Colony Homes and is part of the Chastain Subdivision. Action ID #
20022320 and Action ID #20022321 refer to Nationwide Permits 39 and 14 respectively that
were issued for the Chastain Subdivision. Action ID #200120236 refers to a Nationwide Permit
12 issued for a sewer crossing on the Battleridge North property that allowed the temporary
impact of 0.1446 acre of wetland.
Mr. Steve Mitchell of the NC-DWQ confirmed buffered channels on the property, which are
reflected on the attached site plan. A copy of Mr. Mitchell's letter is attached (NBRRO# 02-
041).
V. Future Project Plans
Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work,
and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application.
No other future permits are anticipated at this time
VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. The applicant must also
provide justification for these impacts in Section VII below. All proposed impacts, permanent
and temporary, must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on an accompanying site
plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intennittent and perennial) must be shown on a
Page 3 of 8
delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream
evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate. Photographs may be
included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for wetland or stream
mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional space is needed for
listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: The proposed road crossing
will permanently impact 0.4977 acres of wetlands and ??? feet of perennial stream
2. Individually list wetland impacts below:
Wetland Impact Area of Located within Distance to
Site Number Type of Impact* Impact 100-year Floodplain** Nearest Stream Type of Wetland***
(indicate on ma) (acres) (yes/no) (linear feet)
Impact 1 Permanent/Fill 0.4977 Bottomland Hardwood
- List eacn impact separately and identity temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: mechanized clearing, grading, fill,
excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams, separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding.
** 100-Year floodplains are identified through the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(FIRM), or FEMA-approved local floodplain maps. Maps are available through the FEMA Map Service Center at 1-800-358-9616, or
online at http://www.fema.gov.
*** List a wetland type that best describes wetland to be impacted (e.g., freshwater/saltwater marsh, forested wetland, beaver pond,
Carolina Bay, bog, etc.) Indicate if wetland is isolated (determination of isolation to be made by USACE only).
List the total acreage (estimated) of all existing wetlands on the property: +/- 8
Total area of wetland impact proposed: 0.4977
3. Individually list all intermittent and perennial stream impacts below:
Stream Impact Length of Average Width Perennial or
Site Number Type of Impact* Impact Stream Name** of Stream Intermittent?
(indicate on ma) (linear feet) Before Impact leasespecify)
Impact 1 Fill/Culvert 108 UT to Neuse River +10, Perennial
List each impact separately and identify temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: culverts and associated riprap,
dams (separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding), relocation (include linear feet before and after, and net loss/gain),
stabilization activities (cement wall, rip-rap, crib wall, gabions, etc.), excavation, ditching/straightening, etc. If stream relocation is
proposed, plans and profiles showing the linear footprint for both the original and relocated streams must be included.
** Stream names can be found on USGS topographic maps. If a stream has no name, list as UT (unnamed tributary) to the nearest
downstream named stream into which it flows. USGS maps are available through the USGS at 1-800-358-9616, or online at
www.usgs.gov. Several internet sites also allow direct download and printing of USGS maps (e.g., www.topozone.com,
www.mapquest.com, etc.).
Cumulative impacts (linear distance in feet) to all streams on site: 108 LF
4. Individually list all open water impacts (including lakes, ponds, estuaries, sounds, Atlantic
Ocean and any other water of the U.S.) below:

List each impact separately and identify temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: fill, excavation, dredging,
flooding, drainage, bulkheads, etc.
Page 4 of 8
5. Pond Creation
If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be
included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.
Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands
Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of
draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.): N/A
Size of watershed draining to pond: N/A Expected pond surface area: N/A
VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
The proposed townhome site is approximately 96.5 acres in size. Due to the size and shape
of the property, some impacts were unavoidable Lot fill has been avoided in the stream and
adjacent wetlands that bisect the remaining property. In order to access the area south of the
wetland the applicant must tie into an existing road located at the northern property boundary.
Given the location of the existing road north of the site and the east-west orientation of the
stream/wetland area, the impacts could not be avoided entirely. In addition, currently approved
BMP's will be used during construction
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.
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
Page 5 of 8
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
http:/ih2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html.
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.
If the USACE requires compensatory mitigation for wetland impacts the client proposes
payment to NCWRP.
NC-DWG's current policy does not require wetland mitigation for impacts below 1.0 acre
and perennial stream channel impacts less than 150 linear feet per project Because wetland
impacts are less than 1.0 acre and stream channel impacts are less than 150 linear feet we do
not believe that compensatory mitigation should be required by the NC-DWQ
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.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the
following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): N/A
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): N/A
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public
(federal/state) land?
Yes ? No
Page 6 of 8
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No ?
X.
If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes ? No ?
Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify, )?
Yes ? No ® If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.
Zone* Impact
(square feet) Multiplier Required
Mitigation
1 6,528 3 NA
2 4,168 1.5 NA
Total 10,696 NA
* Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from near bank of channel; Zone2 extends an
additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.
If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or.0260.
Buffer impacts are classified as "allowable" therefore no buffer mitigation is expected or
proposed.
Page 7 of 8
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
Due to the large amounts of open space the site's proposed impervious cover is less than 30%
The site will comply with the sheet flow conditions of the Neuse Buffer Rules
XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
Will tie to existing sewer lines to City of Raleigh.
XIII. Violations (required by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).

S & E C Project #02-6775
Wake County
I have reviewed the maps that you have submitted for the project referenced by the Raleigh Regional Office
as NBRRO-02-041. An evaluation of the stream features was performed on February 5, 2002 to determine
whether the site would require compliance with the Neuse Buffer Rule.
The features represented on the Wake County Soils and the USGS topographic maps were evaluated
to determine their subjectivity to the Neuse Buffer Rule. It was determined that there are two features
represented that are is subject to the Neuse River Basin-Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy:
Protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Areas, Administrative Code T15A:02B.0233 (NCAC
0233). Feature A is subject from NBR Flag 01 and feature B is subject through the property.
This letter addresses only those issues involving the riparian area. For information relative to the Wetlands
401/404 issues, please contact Mr. John Domey at 919-733-1786. Thank you for your attention to this matter
and if this Office can be of any assistance or if you have additional questions, please do not hesitate to
contact me at 571- 4700.
