Washington, NC 27889 March 1, 2007 RE: Peter and Julie Wiley Lot Access Ocracoke, Hyde County, NC Mr. Steffens: Enclosed is a Nationwide 14 and 401 Water Quality Certification submission for a project referred to as "Peter and Julie Wiley Lot Access" in Beachside Extension Subdivision in Ocracoke, Hyde County, North Carolina. As we have discussed, there are two buildable lots (81 and 83) that have received Nationwide 18 Permits for house footprint construction, however, they require vehicular access. The proposed work involves extension of a recently permitted access road in the path of least Section 404 wetland impact. The Wiley's provided a letter of support for the prior issued permit since it was realized that an extension of that road would be the route of least impact. The impacts proposed herein are for 0.07 acres of freshwater Section 404 wetland. The coastal wetland line is depicted on the plat and the area to be impacted is not considered coastal wetland.

River Basin: Tar-Pamlico (Note -this must be one of North Carolina's seventeen designated major river basins. The River Basin map is available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/admin/mapsl.) 9. Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application:. Undeveloped grassy with sparse trees and shrub-scrub tyke vegetation; total non-wetland (0.31 ac)• Section 404 wetland (0 43 ac) On the north (back) Updated 11/1/2005 Page 6 of 13 side of the property there are areas of coastal wetlands The Section 404 wetlands line has been confirmed on March 13 2003 by William Walker USACE The coastal wetlands line has been delineated in August 2006 b~Terry Moore and Steve Trowell of NC Division of Coastal Management. There have been recent road improvements in the subdivision however, the improvements do not allow access all of the way to Lot 81 and 83 where the Wiley's intend to construct cottages. This general vicinity of Ocracoke is comprised of residentially developed and undeveloped residential lots There has been no construction on the subiect lot to date, but Nationwide #18 and associated 401 Water Quality Certifications have been obtained for the house footprint areas on Lots 81 and 83 The Wiled lan to beam construction in 2007. 10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The protect involves placement of sand and gravel material through a portion of Section 404 freshwater (non-coastal) wetlands. The proposed wetlands impacts from fill include a 16 ft wide corridor that will connect existing uplands (the existing access road) to uplands at Lot 83. A maximum of 12 inches of material will be placed alon this alignment There will be side-bv-side 12 inch diameter traffic rated culverts to maintain adequate hydrologic connections of Section 404 wetland areas durin exceptional storm events (see culvert location on site plan). Sand will be transported to the site via dump truck and will be s rp ead and compacted with a bulldozer within the surveyed road alignment This material will be compacted and covered with gravel or similar material During the fill process the ed es of the road will be lined with silt fence. 11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work:_ The purpose of the project is to rovide vehicular access to Lots 81 and 83 which are buildable lots that have received Nationwide #18 and 401 Water Quality Cert. Permits It is necessary to have vehicular access to proceed to the construction stage. 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. A USACE iurisdictional determination has been issued on 3-13-03 For Lot 81: A Nationwide #18 (November 14 2005- Action ID#200610117) and 401 Water Quality Cert. (October 11 2005- DWQ#20051835) Permits have been issued for residential house construction. For Lot 83: A Nationwide #18 (November 14 2005- Action ID#200610118) and 401 Water Quality Cert. (October 11, 2005- DWQ#20051834) Permits have been issued for residential house construction. There has been a Nationwide #14 (December 4 2006 Action ID#2006-41141-148) and a 401 Water Quality Cert. (January 17 2007 DWQ#02-1157v 2) issued for access road improvements Updated 11/1/2005 Page 7 of 13 in the subdivision, but this did not extend to the Wiley Lot since the permits were not ap lied for by the Wiley's. However the prior access road permit application addressed the Wiley property and the minimization efforts that would be achieved by using one discrete access road throughout this portion of Beachside Extension Subdivision The prior access road permits were for a total of 0.1 acres of wetland disturbance and a combination of the two applications does not come near the maximum allowable under a nationwide #14. 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. There will future building permit requests to Hyde County There have been septic system improvement permits issued for lots 81 and 83 There are no additional access road ermit requests anticipated since the road extension as proposed will effectively provide access to all buildable lots. 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. Each impact must be listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts, permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) should be shown on a 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:- Impacts include a jurisdictional Section 404 wetland impact of 0.07 acres This area is proposed to be filled for a vehicular access drive that connects existing uplands to existing_uplands The proposed alignment is within a designated 30 ft right-of-way that was established for Beachside Extension lot access. 2.

Please note that this section only applies to waters that have specifically been determined to be isolated by the USACE. 8. Pond Creation N/A 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.): Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): Current land use in the vicinity of the pond: Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area: 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 wetland impacts have been minimized to the fullest extent possible by limiting the driveway width (toe to toe of fill) to 16 ft and by utlllzma the existing designated roadway for this portion of Beachside Extension This alignment achieves the goal of providing access to Lots 81 and 83 to be built on in the near future. The access road fill does not require fill within an Area of Environmental Concern (AEC) including estuarine AEC and coastal wetlands The access road improvement work is not within Tar-Pamlico Buffer Zones. This is the shorted possible route to the subject lots and will be an extension of the already permitted drive Diffuse flow will be achieved though ve etative infiltration (exactly the same construction methodology as the prior permitted access road) and side-bv-side culverts will be installed in the location indicated on the plat to maintain surficial hydrolo~lc connections from heavy precipitation events 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 January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when Updated 11/1/2005 Page 10 of 13 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 NCEEP 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:/lh2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide html. 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. Proposed mitigation includes payment into the NC EEP at a 2.1 mitigation to fill ratio (See acceptance letter from EEP) 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP).

Extension of the road (~1901inear feet) is necessary for vehicular access for the Wiley lots 81 and 83 and there will be no further extension, as these are the last two buildable lots without access. The vegetated filter strips and low profile driveway is designed to effectively accept, treat and diffuse runoff created from the proposed driveway extension.

GenerallyPlargeraress with permeable soils, flat slopes, and dense vegetation should have lowest C values. Smaller areas with slowly permeable soils, steep slopes, and sparse vegetation should be assigned highest C values. Source: American Society of Civil Engineers The overland flow portion of flow time may be determined from Figure 8.03a. The flow time (in minutes) in the channel can be estimated by calculating the average velocity in feet per minute and dividing the length (in feet) by the average velocity. Step 4. Determine the rainfall intensity, frequency, and duration through 8.03g-source: North Cazolina State Highway Commission;8 an 1973). Select the chart far the locality closest to your location. Enter the "duration" axis of the chazt with the calculated time of concentration, TC. Move vertically until you intersect the curve of the appropriate design storm, then move horizontally to read the rainfall intensity factor, i, in inches per hour. Step 5. Determine peak discharge, O (ft3/seC), by multiplying the previously determined factors using the rational formula (Sample Problem 8.03a). 8.03.2 D Land Us® C Business: Downtown areas 0.70-0.95 Neighborhood areas 0.50-0.70 Table B.03a Value of Runoff Coeffit;ient (C) for Rational Porrrtula Residential: Single-family areas 0.30-0.50 Multi units detached , Multi units, attached 0.40-0.60 0.60-0 75 Suburban . 0.25-0.40 Industrial: Light areas Heavy areas 0.50-0.80 0.60-0.90 Parks, cemeteries 0.10-0.25 Playgrounds 0.20-0.35 Railroad yard areas 0.20-0.40 Unimproved areas 0.10-0.30 Streets: Asphalt Concrete 0.70-0.95 - Brick 0.80-0.95 D 0.70-0.85 rives and walks 0.75-0.85 Roofs 0.75-0.85 ~' L L i - t b~~ Figure 8.03b Rainfall intensity duration curves-Wilrnington. /0,5 Duration ~..r ~,~ Figure 8.03c Rainfall intensity duration curves-Hatteras. i T ~ppendaces x.03.5 ~ ~~ ivnnuies Hours ~~~~~ iu~es Hours Duration ' t+g I T Table 8.05a " IUlaxirrturn All®wable ®esign Vel®cities~ f®r Vegetated Channels - Typical Soii a Grass Lining Channel Slope Characteristics Permissible Velocity3 Application for Established Grass Ltning (ft/sec) 0-5% Easily Erodible Bermudagrass Non-plastic Tall fescue 5.0 (Sands & Silts) Bahiagrass 4.5 4.5 Kentucky bluegrass 4.5 Grass-legume mixture 3.5 Erosion Resistant Bermudagrass Plastic 6.0 Tall fescue (Clay mixes) ,Bahiagrass 5.5 5.5 Kentucky bluegrass 5.5 Grass-legume mixture 4.5 5-10% Easily Erodible Bermudagrass Non-plastic Tall fescue 4.5 (Sands & Silts) Bahiagrass 4.0 4.0 Kentucky bluegrass 4.0 Grass-legume mixture 3.0 Erosion Resistant Bermudagrass Plastic 5.5 Tall fescue (Clay Mixes) Bahiagrass 5.0 5.0 Kentucky bluegrass 5.0 N Grass-legume mixture 3.5 , >10% Easily Erodible Bermudagrass Non-plastic Tall fescue 3.5 (Sands & Silts) Bahiagrass 2.5 2.5 Kentucky bluegrass 2.5 Erosion Resistant Bermudagrass Plastic 4.5 Tall fescue (Clay Mixes) Bahiagrass 3.5 3.5 Kentucky bluegrass 3.5 Source: USDA-SCS Modified NOTE: Permissible Velocity based on 10-yr storm peak runoff 2Soil e dibili b ro ty ased on resistance to soil movement from concentrated flowing water. 3Bef ore grass is established, permissible velocity is determined by the type of temporary liner used. S e I e cti n g C h an n e I To calculate the required size of an open channel, assume the design flow is uniform and does not vary with time. Since actual flow conditions change Cross-Section throughout the length of a channel, subdivide the channel into design reaches , Geometry and design each reach to carry the appropriate capacity. The three most commonly used channel cross-sections are "V"-shaped, par- abolic, and trapezoidal. Figure 8.OSb gives mathematical formulas for the area, hydraulic radius and top width of each of these shapes. 5.05.4 ~ ~~ THE COASTAL WETLANDS LINE DEPICTED HAS BEEN DELINEATED BY DCM IN AUGUST 2006 AND LOCATED BY MESA SURVEYING, INC NOTE: THE SECTION 404 WETLANDS LINE WAS CONFIRMED BY USACE ON 3-13-03 II,I ~ ~ \ - '•~- ~l `\\ /,~~ ~ ~, ~'~. ~_ 11_ ~ v ,~• ,,~es••` ~`- b o I ~ ~ I LOT ~; 80 M ~~. ~`- O ~I_ ~ ~ i O ~`__ ~ p I I ~~ ~ z ~ ~~ I UPLAND ~- ~ ®® ~ /I i 30 0 ~_ ~~ ~ ~ ~~~0 / ~ \ .~ / .c .~ ~ .
