APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Dear Mr. Richardson:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill in 0.008 acre of wetlands and 65 linear
feet of streams for the purpose of commercial development at UT Middle Creek in Wake County, as you described in your
application received by the Division of Water Quality on April 4, 2001. After reviewing your application, we have decided
that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3106. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide
Permit 18 when the Corps of Engineers issues it. 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 Watershed regulations. Also this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 permit
expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change your
project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application for a new certification. If the property is
sold, the new owner must be given a copy of the 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). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in
the attached certification.
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 1508 of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, 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 Dorney at 919-733-9646.
Sincerely,
Stevens

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
NWP APPLICATION
Schieffelin Road Property, PSNC Energy
Apex, Wake County, North Carolina
March 12, 2000
QUESTION 8a:
This application is a refinement of a previous permit issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers
(USACOE) and the NC Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ). The USACOE Action ID is
20002 1 1 98 and the NCDWQ Project Number is 000807. This application involves additional
minor impacts associated with the project. In addition, this application provides more specific
information in regards to the upland development.
QUESTION 12:
The subject property is approximately 11 acres in size. The property has an intermittent stream
segment that borders the eastern property line. Flowing south, this stream traverses the property
at an angle and crosses under Schieffelin Road. The stream intersects the southem-most
property line in roughly the center. Additionally, the stream segment is subject to the North
Carolina, Division of Water Quality, Neuse River Buffer Rules.
The applicants are proposing to construct a road for permanent access to the property. This
road design meets the requirements of the Apex Planning Board and Department of
Transportation for safe intersection design. The Apex Planning Board is requiring the connection
of existing curb and guttering on the adjoining properties along Schieffelin Road and the
construction of a sidewalk. These requirements will necessitate the widening of Schieffelin Road
on both sides of the proposed intersection. Widening Schieffelin Road will require land
disturbance and placement of clean fill in Neuse River buffer areas. The existing culvert at
Schieffelin Road will be extended an additional 45 feet impacting the intermittent stream an
equal amount. Additionally, in order to provide smooth flow into the culvert, approximately 20
more feet of stream will be impacted by excavation. In total, 65 linear feet of intermittent stream
will be impacted by the project.
The road construction activity will require the use of bulldozers, dumptrucks, earthmovers,
trackhoes, compactors and paving equipment. The work will involve impacts to 200 square feet
(0.0067 acres) of wetlands and 7,890 square feet of the Neuse River Buffer. Any remaining
wetlands on the property are contained within the Neuse River Buffer and will not be further
impacted by the proposed upland development.
QUESTION 13:
The project purpose is to gain roadway access to uplands on the site. This roadway is to meet
design requirements of the Apex Planning Board and Department of Transportation for safe
intersection design.
QUESTION 14:
The impacts are the minimal necessary to gain road access to the subject property. The position
of the road is the logical location for such a feature that considers stream and wetland impact
minimization. The road must also connect perpendicular to Schieffelin Road, as required by
Apex Planning Board and Department of Transportation requirements for safe intersection
design. Other impacts to wetlands and streams are due to mandatory street design requirements
implemented by the Town of Apex. Any other alternative road alignments available to the
applicant would result in significantly more stream impacts, land disturbance, and aquatic life
and habitat disruption.
The project purpose cannot be practically accomplished with any other design that would better
minimize disturbance, preserve aquatic life and habitat, and protect water quality. The use
cannot practically be reduced in size or density, reconfigured or redesigned to better minimize
disturbance, preserve aquatic life and habitat, and protect water quality. Best management
practices will be used to minimize disturbance, preserve aquatic life and habitat, and protect
water quality. Best management practices may include engineered measures related to
sedimentation and erosion control and stormwater retention, as may be required.

SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION
NWP APPLICATION
Schieffelin Road Property, PSNC Energy
Apex, Wake County, North Carolina
March 12, 2000
QUESTION 8a:
This application is a refinement of a previous permit issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers
(USACOE) and the NC Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ). The USACOE Action ID is
200021198 and the NCDWQ Project Number is 000807. This application involves additional
minor impacts associated with the project. In addition, this application provides more specific
information in regards to the upland development.
QUESTION 12:
The subject property is approximately 11 acres in size. The property has an intermittent stream
segment that borders the eastern property line. Flowing south, this stream traverses the property
at an angle and crosses under Schieffelin Road. The stream intersects the southem-most
property line in roughly the center. Additionally, the stream segment is subject to the North
Carolina, Division of Water Quality, Neuse River Buffer Rules.
The applicants are proposing to construct a road for permanent access to the property. This
road design meets the requirements of the Apex Planning Board and Department of
Transportation for safe intersection design. The Apex Planning Board is requiring the connection
of existing curb and guttering on the adjoining properties along Schieffelin Road and the
construction of a sidewalk. These requirements will necessitate the widening of Schieffelin Road
on both sides of the proposed intersection. Widening Schieffelin Road will require land
disturbance and placement of clean fill in Neuse River buffer areas. The existing culvert at
Schieffelin Road will be extended an additional 45 feet impacting the intermittent stream an
equal amount. Additionally, in order to provide smooth flow into the culvert, approximately 20
more feet of stream will be impacted by excavation. In total, 65 linear feet of intermittent stream
will be impacted by the project.
The road construction activity will require the use of bulldozers, dumptrucks, earthmovers,
trackhoes, compactors and paving equipment. The work will involve impacts to 200 square feet
(0.0067 acres) of wetlands and 7,890 square feet of the Neuse River Buffer. Any remaining
wetlands on the property are contained within the Neuse River Buffer and will not be further
impacted by the proposed upland development.
QUESTION 13:
The project purpose is to gain roadway access to uplands on the site. This roadway is to meet
design requirements of the Apex Planning Board and Department of Transportation for safe
intersection design.
QUESTION 14:
The impacts are the minimal necessary to gain road access to the subject property. The position
of the road is the logical location for such a feature that considers stream and wetland impact
minimization. The road must also connect perpendicular to Schieffelin Road, as required by
Apex Planning Board and Department of Transportation requirements for safe intersection
design. Other impacts to wetlands and streams are due to mandatory street design requirements
implemented by the Town of Apex. Any other alternative road alignments available to the
applicant would result in significantly more stream impacts, land disturbance, and aquatic life
and habitat disruption.
The project purpose cannot be practically accomplished with any other design that would better
minimize disturbance, preserve aquatic life and habitat, and protect water quality. The use
cannot practically be reduced in size or density, reconfigured or redesigned to better minimize
disturbance, preserve aquatic life and habitat, and protect water quality. Best management
practices will be used to minimize disturbance, preserve aquatic life and habitat, and protect
water quality. Best management practices may include engineered measures related to
sedimentation and erosion control and stormwater retention, as may be required.
