Cornelius, NC 28031
Dear Mr. Dienst:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place 611 material in 0.10 acres of wetlands
and 310 linear feet of streams for the purpose of constructing a residential development at Templeton Road as described in your application
dated February 11, 2000 with a revision dated November 18, 2000. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered
by General Water Quality Certification Numbers 3102 and 3108. These certifications allow you to use Nationwide Permit Numbers 14 and 26
when the Corps of Engineers issues them. 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 Water shed
regulations. This approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General
Certification. This Certification replaces one issued to you on April 10, 2000.
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. 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.
1. Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all remaining jurisdictional wetlands and streams to notify the state in order
to assure compliance for future wetland and/or water 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, which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina
General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 274,7, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and its conditions are
final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have any questions,
please telephone John Domey at 919-733-9646.

On behalf of my client, Mr. Bob Dienst, of Dienst Enterprisfs, Inc., 1 am providing you with additional
information concern ing the attached residential development. 'Unless there are objections, it is my client's
intention to utilize the same authorizations. Due to a chan4 in the plans, the project will require less
impacts to Waters of the U.S., than previously permitted.
The project changes primarily consist of a single family residential development instead of a mixed single
family and multi-family development. Because of the reduc,.._E _-nsity, impacts to streams and wetlands to
construct the stonmwater management facility will not be req ired. As previously indicated, mitigation to
offset loss of important channel will be accomplished throu buffer establishment along the remaining
streams on the property and along Lake Norman in accordance with the plans in the submitted
application. It

Re: Approximate i58,8 Acre Templeton Road Residential Community, iredell County. North
Carolina - Nationwide Permit #26, #14
Dear Sirs:
On behalf of my client, Mr. Bob Dienst, of Dienst Enterprises, Inc., I am providing you with the following
information concerning this well planned development for your consideration. The project site is located in
rapidly developing Mooresville area, north of Charlotte. The site is currently zoned for a residential
development. Current land use in the vicinity are agricultural land, single family subdivisions. The project
has been planned sensitively to preserve the perennial and intermittent streams to the fullest extent feasible,
and to minimize impacts to Lake Norman. There are approximately 1600 If of intermittent and perennial
streams on the project site and approximately 0.40 acres of riparian wetlands.
Due to sensitive land planning, stream impacts are primarily confined to only those necessary to implement
necessary road crossings and to construct required water quality ponds. Clearly defined construction and
grading limits will be implemented to minimize additional impacts as well as to preserve forested buffers to
the extent feasible along the streams. The wetlands adjacent to Lake Norman will not be impacted. 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.
Background
The site within drainage areas of a tributary of Lake Norman in the Catawba Basin (Water Classification
WS-IV). The majority of the site is a moderately to gently sloping ridge to the lake.

Wetland hydrology is provided by a seasonal flooding, and from seeps, springs, and surface runoff over a
clayey subsoil found at the toe of slopes where the ridge meets the floodplain. These wetlands can be
classified as Palustrine Forested Broad Leaved, Scrub Shrub, Temporarily to Seasonally Flooded (PFOIA,
PFO1C, PSS1A, and PSS1F). The streams on the site include perennial and intermittent (except most upper
reach)streams that have important aquatic value as determined by the USACE. Characteristics include
persistent pools, riffle and pool complexes, fish in the lower portions, amphibians and macro-invertebrates;
evidence of wildlife utilizing the stream; and rocky, gravelly, and sandy channel substrate. There is a small
braided channel which flows within the wetland area during rain events.
HydrophZic Vegetation
Vegetation in wetland areas and along tributaries is dominated by Facultative, Facultative Wet, and Obligate
Vegetation and include black willow, green ash, willow oak, red maple, sweet gum, alder, silky dogwood,
greenbriar, poison ivy, and others. Herbaceous plants include sedges, needle rush, jewel-weed, and other
typical wetland species.
SUMMARY OF WATERS OF THE U.S.
Methodology
Preliminary identification and delineation of the Jurisdictional Waters on the site were determined according
to the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual, Technical Report Y-87-1, 1987, with Appendices.
Preliminary data gathering included review and interpretation of topographic maps; USDA Soil
Conservation Survey; aerial photographs, and preliminary site visits to selected areas. Then the Routine
On-Site Determination Method was utilized to determine the upper boundary of the wetlands. In order to
make a positive wetland determination indicators of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soil, and wetland
hydrology must be identified as described in the manual. The wetlands map has been used for planning and
potential permitting purposes. Hydrophytic Vegetation has been identified according to the National List of
Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands Southeast (Region 2?, US Department of the Interior, Fish and
Wildlife Service.

WETLANDS PERMITTING AND MITIGATION
As depicted on the plans, the layout substantially avoids and minimizes impacts to Jurisdictional Waters of
the U.S. Except for temporary construction and development impacts, the proposed project should not
cause significant impacts to the ecological functions or values of Jurisdictional Waters of the U. S.
crossings and dams - important streams ± 1951f ± 0.03 ac.
Road crossings and dams - unimportant streams ± 70 If + 0.01 ac.
Flooding streams - important + 240 LF ± 0.03 ac.
coding streams - unimportant ± 220 LF ± 0.02 ac.
etland impacts ± 0.10 ac.
- NWP #26 ± 725 If ± 0.19 ac.
Road Crossing (one crossing of one tributary) ± 100 If ±0.02 ac.
Headwalls utilized to minimize impacts
TOTAL IMPACTS TO JURISDICTIONAL WATERS ± 825 If ±0.21 ac.
Avoidance Minimization and Mi ig inn
- As depicted on the plans, the wetlands and streams areas have been carefully incorporated into the layout
of the site. The stream crossings are as perpendicular as feasible to the stream and/or wetlands to minimize
impacts.
- Except for the functional and necessary wetland and stream crossings and stormwater facility the overall
plan has been designed to retain forested buffers along the wetlands and streams. Therefore the streams and
wetlands remaining on the project site will be enhanced by buffers. 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.
fl Wetlands and streams 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 rpprpapjggitres of the USACE apo Xhp NCDWQ.

g) 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.
A mitigation plan is proposed for a "no net loss" of stream habitat, value, and function to the extent feasible
on this site. Unavoidable grading aa-=Qposed to be i i
around the re ' in- r k Norman, TAcre are no impacts to important greater
than 1501f per channel by construction Stream impacts by flooding will be mitigated by the protection o
the remaining channels and the development of a forebay/ and vegetated littoral zone in connection with the
required detention ponds.
PROTECTION FROMFUTURE DEVELOPMENT
The preserved wetlands and streams will be protected from future impacts by the applicant or by a group
designated by the applicant for this purpose. As required, development of these areas will be deed restricted
in accordance with restrictive covenants, or similar mechanisms which will be developed for approval by the
USACE and/or NCDWQ.
AQUATIC HABITAT
The aquatic systems in the project area consist of wetlands and intermittent tributaries. 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.
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. 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 development of the stormwater detention ponds and littoral zones.
CULTURAL RESOURCES
The State Historic Preservation Office may review of the USGS maps at the Office of State Archaeology
and the Survey and Planning Office of the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources to determine if
sites are indicated on the National Historic Register within the study area.
CONCLUSION
Based on the value of the jurisdictional waters and wetlands on this site, the developer through sensitive and
creative planning has chosen to balance the site's economic viability with its environmental value and
permitability. The goal of the Site Plan and Mitigation Plan is to help balance the environmental
consequences of this development by creating a beneficial aquatic resource that will help maintain or
minimize degradation of waters of the U.S. downstream of the project and through enhancement of
remaining streams. The undisturbed wetland areas and the mitigation sites will be preserved by the applicant
or by a group designated by the owner for this purpose.
