PCN Application
Dewberry Project No. 50022492
Dear Ms. Chapman:

Enclosed are five copies of a Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) Application Form, site location
map, plan sets, USGS Quadrangle Map, USDA Soil Map, FEMA Firm Map, and before and after
pictures for the project: Wingate and Winona Streambank Stabilization.
The Wingate and Winona Streamback Stabilization project was an emergency activity performed by
the City of Raleigh within a sanitary sewer easement along an UT to Big Branch where streambank
erosion was causing the existing sanitary sewer line to become exposed.
The project included repairs and stabilization to the northern and southern streambanks by placement
of rip rap to replicate the location of the uneroded streambank. Access to the south side of the stream
is not possible without removing numerous trees and shrubs which are aiding to stabilize the bank. In
lieu of removing vegetation on the south streambank, the equipment and materials were brought to the
site from the north side of the stream and an excavator with the ability to reach across the stream was
used to place rock. Additional rock was placed on the northern bank to ensure further damage did not
occur when the heavy machinery was placing rock on the southern bank. All work and access was
within the existing sanitary sewer easement. Conventional construction equipment (trackhoes, dump
trucks) were used. Sediment control devices along with mulching and seeding were installed.
Please call with any questions regarding this after-the-fact permit application.
Sincerely,
Dewberry & Davis, Inc.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization

In lieu of removing numerous trees and other vegetation on the unstable south streambank to create access to the project

grass, ivy, and other groundcover. Two trees will be removed in order to gain access from the north streambank.

Erosion control devices will be installed prior to construction. All construction will take place within existing easement. The
disturbed area will be stabilized by seeding and mulching immediately after completion.
