Union Countv. - NWP #39. NWP #14 Dear Sirs: On behalf of my client, Provident Development Group, I am requesting authorization to use Nationwide Permit 39 and 14 to fill + 0.15 acres of wetlands and implement two road crossings. The road crossings will impact + 280 If of perennial stream. The plan preserves the remaining perennial streams and wetlands. The streams will be protected within preserved riparian buffers and common open space. Disturbance within the buffers will be limited to installation of utility lines and passive recreation. Total impervious surface is approximately 29%. Project construction will strictly adhere to an approved Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan. General Wetland Classification and Descriotion The riparian areas and depression wetlands on this site can be described as Palustrine Forested Broad Leaved and Scrub-Shrub Temporarily Flooded. The majority of the site is a moderately sloping former agricultural land and woodland. Trees include sweetgum, tulip-poplar, red maple, willow oak, black willow, and American elm. Understory and herbaceous strata includes smilax, sedges, soft rush, poison ivy, etc. The site includes Chewacla soils. These soils are map units, which may have inclusions ofhydric soils according to the Natural Resource Conservation Service, Technical Guide-Section II-A-2, June 1991. SUMMARY OF WATERS OF THE U.S. Methodolouy Preliminary identification 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; Arbor Glen, Page 3 October 29, 2001 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 were be identified as described in the manual.

WETLANDS PERMITTING AND MITIGATION Avoidance. Minimization, and Mitigation The following avoidance and minimization efforts and measures will also be taken: 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 to be preserved 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. f) Wetlands/steams to be preserved will be clearly marked prior to construction to prevent accidental damage. The contractors will be held responsible for unauthorized wetland and stream damage not permitted according to plans and specifications. 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. hnpacts 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. Arbor Glen, Page 4 October 29, 2001 h) As rewired 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. ProRosed Com Leasatgrv Mitigation The remaining stream and wetlands on the site will be preserved within common open space. Buffers will be retained along the remaining streams to the extent feasible. There will be no direct tail-ditching of storm drainage to the creeks. PROTECTION FROM FUTURE 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. Development of these areas will be deed restricted in accordance with restrictive covenants, which will be developed for approval by the USACE and/or NCDWQ. CULTURAL RESOURCES The project site is disturbed from previous agricultural activities. No structures were found on the site. 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 l"listoric Register within the study area. THREATENED AND ENDANGERED SPECIES Federally listed plant and animal species with endangered or threatened status are protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973. The US Fish and Wildlife Service has identified Schweinit2s sunflower and the Carolina heelsplitter. Schweinitz's sunflower thrives in full sun characteristic of succession fields, margins, and forested openings. Based on a site reconnaissance, habitat conducive to support the Schweinitz's sunflower is not present in the proetect area. The Carolina heelsplitter is a freshwater mussel, which prefers shaded areas either, in a ponded portion of a small stream or in runs along steep banks with moderate current. Primary habitat is waters less than three feet deep with a soft mud, muddy sand, or shady gravelly substrate. It is normally restricted to protected silted areas or under banks especially associated with obstructions such as stumps or fallen trees. Its current distribution according to the US Fish and Wildlife Service is limited to portions of two streams -- Goose Creek and Waxhaw Creek -- and a small river originating from rural areas in Union County. Therefore it is not expected to occur on this site. AQUATIC HABITAT The aquatic systems in the project area consist of tributaries in Yadkin River Basin. A variety of wildlife is supported by these systems including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, mollusks, and crustaceans. Large riparian areas will be preserved within common open space. There will be 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. Arbor Glen, Page 5 October 29, 2001 CONCLUSION Impacts to streams are limited to small wetland impacts and two road crossings. The remaining streams on the site will remain undisturbed. The developer will protect the remaining wetlands and streams by buffers and will adhere to an approved sedimentation and erosion control plan minimizing degradation of waters of the U.S. downstream of the project.

Page 7 of 12 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. USAGE - 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 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://h2o.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. Page 8 of 12 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at httn:/th2o.enr.state.nc.us/wry/l*ndex.htm.
