The Willows IF 5upplemental information 9E.Gi
I. Purpose and Need
Pharmlogic, LLC has acquired a 59.52 acre parcel (Brunswick County PIN 0370005505), which is located within the
existing Willows Subdivision, in Leland, Brunswick County, North Carolina (see Appendix A). In 2006, the majority
of the parcel was classified as Section 404 wetlands, by the USACE (please refer to Appendix B) However, within
the acreage is an upland island that consists of approximately 1 11 acres, upon which The Willows Development
Corporation (herein referred to as the "Applicant'') wishes to extend Curran Court The extension of the road will
provide access to four (4) buildable lots (see Appendix C) Unfortunately, to facilitate the construction of the access
road, the fill of 0 07 -acre of Section 404 wetland is necessary
II. Project History
A. US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Jurisdictional Determination (JD)
Prior to development, The Willows Development Corporation obtained a preliminary JD for the entire tract,
which was issued with the Nationwide Permit (see Appendix B).
B. Wetland Permitting
In 2006, the Department of the Army (DoA) and Division of Water Resources (formerly Quality - DWR)
authorized the permanent impact of 0 43 acre and temporary impact of 0.12 acre of wetland, which was necessary
to facilitate the installation of roads and infrastructure. The authorizations came in the form of Nationwide
Permits 12 and 14 and Water Quality Certifications #3404 and #3374 respectively (see Appendix D)
C. Wetland Mitigation
To compensate for the authorized impacts, the Applicant was required to provide the following mitigation
1. Wetland Creation Component — Creation of 0 48 acres of non - riparian wetlands was to be undertaken
Long term monitoring, for a period of 5 years, was required, as part of this mitigation component
(USACE),
2 Preservation Component — The preservation of 12.51 acres of unaffected wetlands and 4 83 acres of
upland buffer located within the Willows S D. was to take place (USACE),
3. Signs and Monuments — Several permanent monuments (i e anchored, metal pipes) were to be placed
along selected points and verified by a certified land surveyor (USACE);
4 Deed restrictions were to be placed on all lots that contained wetlands within their property boundaries
(DWR); and
5 Certificate of Completion — Upon completion of the impacts, a Certificate of Completion was to be
submitted to each agency
III. Current Project Status
To date and with regard to wetland permitting and impacts, the following has taken place-
1 Development — The majority of the subdivision has been built out, except for a portion of Cottage Field
Lane, which is only 70% complete and very few houses exist (see Appendix E),
2. Wetland Impacts — All the authorized impacts have taken place;
3 Wetland Creation - Wetland creation was constructed in accordance with the specifications and plans
shown in The Willows Mitigation Plan The last monitoring report for this site was submitted to the
USACE in June of 2011 (see Appendix F). No further communication was received from the USACE
regarding the subject, after the last monitoring report was submitted
3

Tke Willows ff ,5upplemental Information SE-Gi
4 Wetland Preservation — The Willows Development Corporation, has executed and caused to be recorded,
in the Brunswick County Register of Deed, a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants and accompanying
exhibit A copy of the recorded documents was submitted to the USACE with the last monitoring report;
5 Signs and Monuments — Steel posts were inserted into the ground, in the specified locations The USACE
was notified of this in April 2006
6 Deed Restrictions — SEGi was unable to determine if deed restrictions were placed on lots with wetlands,
and
7 Certificate of Completion — A Certificate of Certification was submitted to each agency
IV. Project Description
The Applicant anticipates impacting 0 07 -acre of Section 404 jurisdictional wetlands with the extension of the road
into a cul -de -sac (see Appendix G) Heavy machinery, such as a bulldozer, grader, back hoe, and track hoe, will be
utilized during the construction process The machinery will be used to clear the land, stabilize the soil, establish
grade and to transport and deposit the proposed fill material within the project boundaries. Sediment and erosion
control measures will be installed prior to commencement of land disturbing activities.
Coastal wetlands are not anticipated to be impacted by this project, and the project is located outside any Areas of
Environmental Concern (AECs) A Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Consistency Determination is being
prepared concurrently with this permit application and will be submitted to the USACE and DWQ upon issuance
Threatened and Endangered Species and archaeological assessments were conducted, as part of the original submittal
of Pre - Construction Notification It is not anticipated that either of these two issues are of concern
V. Avoidance and Minimization
The proposed impact was part of the preliminary site plan, but was surrendered, due to the fact that the impact would
cause total permanent impacts to exceed the NWP acreage threshold (i.e., 0 50- acre); subsequently elevating the
authorization to a DoA Individual Permit; which, at the time, was not economically feasible
Unfortunately, the 1 II -acre upland area is surrounded by wetlands, thus avoidance is not possible The impact
encompasses only the area necessary to install a road and cul -de -sac that meets NC Department of Transportation
(NC DOT) road design requirements
VI. Alternatives
The Applicant invested money in the property anticipating being able to build 64 of houses (60 houses on Cottage
Field Lane and 4 on the subject upland island) The Applicant investigated other potential means for developing the
subject area, and has been unable to find a practicable alternative that would achieve his goal and meet his stated
purpose
A. Alternative 1. — No Action
The "No Action" Alternative (leaving the proposed impact area undeveloped) would not be economically
feasible, as the four buildable lots would not be accessible and therefore, the Applicant would not be able to
sell the properties Thus, the No Action Alternative is not economically feasible.
B. Alternative 2. — Bridging the Wetland
Bridging the wetland would be an expensive endeavor, as the structure would be required to meet NC DOT
Bridge Standards. This option would also include impacting wetlands First, footers would be required (i e
Fill). Second, the terrain makes it impossible to elevate the structure to be at least 3' above the substrate. This
4

The Willows JF,9upplemental Information
would create a shading effect (i e removal of function) For these reasons, bridging the wetlands is not an
economically feasible or practicable alternative
C. Alternative 3 — Current Location
The proposed is the preferred alternative, as it provides the location specific impact necessary to meet the
purpose and need of the project
The economic vitality of the project lies within the Applicant's ability to provide buildable lots for houses that
will fit in harmony with the PUD Being in close proximity to Wilmington, but not located within New
Hanover County, where taxes are higher, the town of Leland is and has been a thriving community It is
important to note, that this road crossing has been on the plans since the inception of the project and the
Applicant has a home builder, who has stated he will buy the subject lots, once the permits to impact wetlands
has been secured

VIII. Sequence of events
The Applicant has secured stormwater and S &EC permits, thus work is to commence as soon as DoA and DWR
approvals have been issued The work will consist of clearing the land, removing the hydric soils from the impact
area, installing utilities, back - filling the area with clean earthen fill to establish grade, applying crush and run,
installing curb and gutter, then applying asphalt Upon completion of that work, the slopes of the crossing will be
graded to a 3 1 slope, seeded, and covered with excelsior matting or straw.
IX. Compensatory Mitigation
Mitigation for previously authorized impacts has been fulfilled Based on the type of wetland being impacted (i e pine flat) and
its functional value being low, the Applicant is proposing to offset the new impact with payment to Lower Cape Fear Umbrella
Mitigation Bank (LCFUMB), at a 1 4 to 1 mitigation -to- impact ratio or purchasing 0 10 -acre of non - npanan wetland restoration
credit, to offset the 0 07 -acre of proposed impact SEQ and the Applicant believe that the proposed mitigation is sufficient to
offset the impact A letter of acceptance, from LCFUMB, has been attached to this document (see Appendix 1)

The Willows JP `supplemental Information 5EGi
X. Conclusion
In conclusion, in order to facilitate the extension of Curran Court, which would terminate into a cul -de -sac that
would provide access to four buildable lots, the fill 0 07 -acre of USACE Section 404 pine flat wetlands will be
necessary Avoidance and minimization efforts were incorporated into the plan during the design phase of the
project. The Applicant proposes to offset the impact with payment to the LCFUMB, for 0 10 -acre of non - riparian
wetland credit The Applicant and SEG1 feel the project is the least environmentally damaging, practicable
alternative.

I. Project History
A Permitting
5E-Gi
On Nationwide Permits (NWP) 12 & 14, issued to the Willows Development, Corp, under
USACE Action ID 200501325, for permanent and temporary impacts to 404 junsdictional
wetlands associated with the development of a residential subdivision in Leland, Brunswick
County, North Carolina (see Appendix A).
B Mitigation
To compensate for the authonzed impacts, the Applicant was required to provide the
following mitigation
1 Wetland creation component — the first method of proposed mitigation included the
creation of 0 48 acres of wet flat wetlands. Long term momtonng, for a penod of 5
years, is required as part of this mitigation component
2 Preservation component — the second method of mitigation consisted of preserving
12 51 acres of unaffected wetlands and 4 83 acres of upland buffer located within the
Willows S D
II. Current Project Status
A Impacts
All proposed impacts have taken place
B Mitigation
1 To date, the Applicant has constructed the mitigation project in accordance with
the specifications and plans shown in The Willows Mitigation Plan (see
Appendix B) The last monitoring report for this site was submitted to the Corps
on 8 June 2010
2 The preservation document has been recorded and a copy of the document has
been submitted to the appropnate regulatory agencies
M. Mitigation Site Details
The mitigation site is located within The Willows subdivision, located between US 74/76 and
Village Road, in Leland, Brunswick County, NC. The mitigation site is situated at the terminus of
North Gate Dnve, at the western edge of the subdivision Latitude/longitude coordinates of the
creation area are N 34 2309 and W 77.0097 The creation area is bounded on the south and west
by a large tract of managed wet flat and on the north and east by single family homes and North
Gate Dnve (see Appendix C)

IV. Mitigation Site Requirements
A Vegetation
Vegetative data will be gathered including survival data of the planted specimens and the
presence of nuisance species Species diversity and composition will be noted For
success criteria to be met, a survival rate of 320 planted trees per acre after 2 years, and
260 trees per acre after 5 years must be achieved No one species should account for
more than 20% of the composition If the area does not meet these requirements, it will
be spot - planted If the vegetative success criterion of the survival of 320 trees per acre
after two years, and 260 trees per acre after five years, as specified in the mitigation plan,
is not met, the permittee will submit, to the review agencies, a determination as to the
necessary corrective action(s) to be taken
B Hydrology
A monitoring well will be installed to a depth of 20 inches and will be sealed with sand
and bentomte. Success criteria of the hydrologic parameter requires the site to exhibit one
or more of the primary indicators, or two or more of the secondary indicators of
hydrology as outlined in the 1987 Army Corps of Engineers Wetlands Manual for 12.5%
of the growing season under normal conditions (e g normal rainfall, normal
temperatures, etc ) If the hydrology success criterion (a hydropenod of at least 12.5% of
the growing season) is not met in any normal year, the permittee will submit, to the
review agencies, a determination as to the necessary corrective action(s) to be taken
After agency review and Corps approval, the action(s) will be nmplemented and the
permittee will continue monitoring hydrology until performance criteria have been met
during a normal year
V. Monitoring Data
A Vegetation
On -site inspections of the creation area show a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted
for life in saturated soil conditions, as well as areas where saturation occurs within the
first 12 inches of the surface and has the presence of hydric soils Vegetative data
gathered indicated the survival of planted specimens met the criteria outlined in the
proposed monitoring plan The site exhibits the natural revegetation of emergent
herbaceous species, such as Rhyncospora spp., Juncus ef%usus, Panzcum hemitomom,
Ehochans spp ; Proserpinaca palustris, and, Schzzachznum scopanum Two species of
woody plant are over the 20% composition requirement, loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) and
gallberry (Ilex conacea) There is no evidence of any nuisance species located within the
creation area (see Appendix D) The table found on the next page denotes the number of
each species found within the creation area

While the creation area has met the survival success criterion, the majority of the stems
are located along the perimeter In hopes of providing a canopy within the inundated area,
the Applicant has agreed to plant bald cypress (Taxodium distichum). The additional
cypress stems will be planted within the next week or two
B. Hydrology
Visual inspection of the site indicates inundation of water within a good portion of the
center of the creation area Monitoring well data confirms this occurrence (see Appendix
E) Auger pulls, conducted during the 27 May 2010 site visit with the Corps, indicates
hydrology, on the outer fringe of the created area, can be found within the first 12 inches
of the surface The soul exhibited fine sandy loam characteristics
C Data Summary
Utilizing the Dichotomous Key to General North Carolina Wetland Types, which
accompanies the NC WAM User Manual v3 01 and the data collected from the site, the
feature has been classified as a basm wetland Due to the occurrence of long term
inundation in the interior of the feature, most of the planted species are found along the
perimeter Two species of woody vegetation are over the 20% threshold Loblolly pine
comprises 29% of the plants present, and gallberry comprises 22% We feel that the pines
will not be problematic for the overall success of the site, since the extensive inundation
in the center of the wetland will keep this tree from dominating the entire site Gallberry

is a very dominant component of the adjacent wetland, so these numbers don't seem high
for the area, and shouldn't be held as a negative against this site and its success
VI Conclusions
An annual monitoring of the wetland creation area, located at the western edge of The Willows
subdivision, was performed on 2 June 2011 Vegetation counts, augured soil samples and
monitoring well data confirm the site has met the muumum mitigation criterion Based on this
information, SEGi feels the wetland creation site be deemed successful

T'he Wt 11ewA Ir 6uppleffiamw In€er-rmt1en (R&Ased 8//29J/1 �) 6EGI
I. Purpose and Need
Pharmlogic, LLC has acquired a 59.52 acre parcel (Brunswick County PIN 0370005505), which is located within
the existing Willows Subdivision, in Leland, Brunswick County, North Carolina (see Appendix A). In 2006, the
majority of the parcel was classified as Section 404 wetlands, by the USACE (please refer to Appendix B).
However, within the acreage is an upland island that consists of approximately 1.11 acres, upon which The
Willows Development Corporation (herein referred to as the "Applicant') wishes to extend Curran Court. The
extension of the road will provide access to four (4) buildable lots (see Appendix C). Unfortunately, to facilitate
the construction of the access road, the fill of 0.07 -acre of Section 404 wetland is necessary.
II. Project History
A. US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) Jurisdictional Determination (JD)
Prior to development, The Willows Development Corporation obtained a preliminary JD for the entire tract,
which was issued with the Nationwide Permit (see Appendix B).
B. Wetland Permitting
hi 2006, the Department of the Army (DoA) and Division of Water Resources (formerly Quality - DWR)
authorized the permanent impact of 0.43 acre and temporary impact of 0.12 acre of wetland, which was
necessary to facilitate the installation of roads and infrastructure. The authorizations came in the form of
Nationwide Permits 12 and 14 and Water Quality Certifications 93404 and #3374 respectively (see Appendix
D).
C. Wetland Mitigation
To compensate for the authorized impacts, the Applicant was required to provide the following mitigation:
1. Wetland Creation Component — Creation of 0.48 acres of non -riparian wetlands was to be
undertaken. Long term monitoring, for a period of 5 years, was required, as part of this mitigation
component (USACE);
2. Preservation Component — The preservation of 12.51 acres of unaffected wetlands and 4.83 acres of
upland buffer located within the Willows S.D. was to take place (USACE);
3. Signs and Monuments — Several permanent monuments (i.e. anchored, metal pipes) were to be
placed along selected points and verified by a certified land surveyor (USACE);
4. Deed restrictions were to be placed on all lots that contained wetlands within their property
boundaries (DWR); and
5. Certificate of Completion — Upon completion of the impacts, a Certificate of Completion was to be
submitted to each agency.
III. Current Project Status
To date and with regard to wetland permitting and impacts, the following has taken place:
1. Development — The majority of the subdivision has been built out, except for a portion of Cottage
Field Lane, which is only 70% complete and very few houses exist (see Appendix E);
2. Wetland Impacts — All the authorized impacts have taken place;
3. Wetland Creation - Wetland creation was constructed in accordance with the specifications and
plans shown in The Willows Mitigation Plan. The last monitoring report for this site was submitted
to the USACE in June of 2011 (see Appendix F). A letter, dated 9 April 2012, was issued to notify
3

T'he Wt have Ir 6uppleffiamw In€er-rmt1en (R&Ased 8//29J/1 �) 6EGI
the Applicant that the 0.48 acre of on-site wetland creation is not fully successful. According to the
letter, there appeared to be a lack of hydrology in an area immediately adjacent to the existing
wetland. The USACE requested a contingency plan that would include the following:
• A site remediation plan, which must include the removal of the upland areas to match the
adjacent wetland grade, soil tilling and additional plantings. Please be aware that the
Corps will require additional monitoring beyond the five years specified in your original
plan.
• An alternative mitigation proposal as replacement for the entire creation area, which may
include in -lieu -fee payment to the NC EEP.
• An alternative mitigation proposal for only the unsuccessful areas, which may include an
in -lieu -fee payment to the NC EEP. Please be aware that annual monitoring of the
remainder of the area must continue until 2013 (year 5).
4. Wetland Preservation — The Willows Development Corporation has executed and caused to be
recorded, in the Brunswick County Register of Deed, a Declaration of Restrictive Covenants and
accompanying exhibit. A copy of the recorded documents was submitted to the USACE with the last
monitoring report;
5. Signs and Monuments — Steel posts were inserted into the ground, in the specified locations. The
USACE was notified of this in April 2006.
6. Deed Restrictions — SEGi was unable to determine if deed restrictions were placed on lots with
wetlands; and
7. Certificate of Completion — A Certificate of Certification was submitted to each agency.
IV. Project Description
The Applicant anticipates impacting 0.07 -acre of Section 404 jurisdictional wetlands with the extension of the
road into a cul-de-sac (see Appendix G). Heavy machinery, such as a bulldozer, grader, back hoe, and track hoe,
will be utilized during the construction process. The machinery will be used to clear the land, stabilize the soil,
establish grade and to transport and deposit the proposed fill material within the project boundaries. Sediment and
erosion control measures will be installed prior to commencement of land disturbing activities.
Coastal wetlands are not anticipated to be impacted by this project, and the project is located outside any Areas of
Environmental Concern (AECs). A Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Consistency Determination is being
prepared concurrently with this permit application and will be submitted to the USACE and DWQ upon issuance.
Threatened and Endangered Species and archaeological assessments were conducted, as part of the original
submittal of Pre -Construction Notification. It is not anticipated that either of these two issues are of concern.
V. Avoidance and Minimization
The proposed impact was part of the preliminary site plan, but was surrendered, due to the fact that the impact
would cause total permanent impacts to exceed the NWP acreage threshold (i.e., 0.50 -acre), subsequently
elevating the authorization to a DoA Individual Permit, which, at the time, was not economically feasible.
Unfortunately, the 1.11 -acre upland area is surrounded by wetlands, thus avoidance is not possible. The impact
encompasses only the area necessary to install a road and cul-de-sac that meets NC Department of Transportation
(NC DOT) road design requirements.

VI. Alternative Analysis
A. Off-site Alternative Analysis
Although a formal Off-site Alternative Analysis was not conducted in 2005, SEGi applied the Section
404(b)(1) guidelines by utilizing historical aerial photography and available historical land use records, to best
determine, if any, off -Site alternatives existed at that time or exist now. SEGi utilized this information to
determine if a practicable off-site alternative site exists while taking into account the, cost, technology and
logistics of each alternative and the overall project purpose.
Taking into account the project purpose specifically, the desired location and proximity to the Leland central
business district and the Highway 17 corridor, several sites were reviewed both historically and currently.
These sites were chosen for their ability to accommodate the size (number of units necessary) of the proposed
development.
1. Alternative Site 1 — Waterford Commercial 43.34 acres (Parcel ID's 0470003801, 0470003807,
0370005560, 0370005597): This site was vacant in 2005 and is currently only partially
developed (PID 0470003801, 11.45 acres is built out). This site meets the location requirements
of the purpose and need however the site is not zoned for residential housing. SEGi did not
pursue the ability to re -zone the property as the land cost per acre far exceeds the cost
practicability of this alternative. Therefore due to zoning and cost Alternative Site 1 was
rejected.
2. Alternative Site 2 — Ploof Road Tract 85.07 acres (Parcel ID's 0380003001, 03800030): This
site was vacant in 2005 and is currently undeveloped. This site does meet the size and location
requirements. However, the site contains significantly more wetlands than the subject parcel
and would result in significantly more wetland impacts than proposed. Alternative Site 2 was
rejected due significantly more wetland impacts than the subject parcel.
3. Alternative Site 3 — Westgate Tract 71.50 acres (Parcel ID's 0480004201, 0480004202): This
parcel was vacant in 2005 and is currently undeveloped. This site does meet the size and
location requirements of the project purpose and is zoned residential. It is unknown if the site
would have been available for purchase in 2005. However if it were, the permittee owned the
subject parcel and would have had to sell the Willows parcel, re -design and permit Alternative
Site 3 (if available) which would not be cost or logistically practicable. Alternative Site 3 was
rejected due to cost and logistical impracticability.
B. On -Site Alternatives Analysis
During the design and permitting phase of the project, several on-site alternatives were considered.
1. Alternative 1 — Current Proposed Design: This alternative was designed to have roads
primarily in uplands, lots only proposed on one side to avoid additional wetland impacts,
narrowing of roads to avoid wetland impacts and the use of retaining walls to minimize
unavoidable impacts. Alternative 1 was accepted as it was the Least Damaging Practicable
Alternative.
2. Alternative 2 — Utilization of other uplands within the tract to avoid impacts: This alternative
was reviewed extensively, and included alternative or modified road layouts, and infrastructure
design. However due to the proposed design provided the least amount of impacts while
yielding the highest number of lots. Therefore Alternative 1 was rejected due to an increased
amount of wetland impacts.
61

T'he WV Il®ws Ir 6uppleffiamw In€er-rmt1en (R&Ased 8y29J/1 �) 6EGI
Alternative 3 — Bridging all or some impacts: This alternative was considered and due to the
cost of bottomless culverts, wooden bridges and concrete bridges it was not practicable to
utilize them. Therefore, Alternative 3 was rejected due to cost constraints.
The Applicant invested money, in the property, anticipating being able to build 64 of houses (60 houses on
Cottage Field Lane and 4 on the subject upland island). The Applicant investigated other potential means for
developing the subject area, and has been unable to fmd a practicable alternative that would achieve his goal
and meet his stated purpose.

VIII. Sequence of events
The Applicant has secured stormwater and S&EC permits, thus work is to commence as soon as DoA and DWR
approvals have been issued. The work will consist of clearing the land, removing the hydric soils from the impact
area, installing utilities, back -filling the area with clean earthen fill to establish grade, applying crush and run,
installing curb and gutter, then applying asphalt. Upon completion of that work, the slopes of the crossing will be
graded to a 3:1 slope, seeded, and covered with excelsior matting or straw.
IX. Compensatory Mitigation
Compensatory mitigation (i.e. avoidance and minimization, restoration, creation, enhancement, preservation,
and/or payment to an in -lieu fee program or private mitigation bank) is typically required for permanent impacts
to wetlands. The mitigation is intended to off -set functional processes (i.e. biological, physical and/or chemical)
lost as a result of the permanent fill of the wetland.
A. Nationwide Permit
As discussed previously in the document, the Applicant agreed to create 0.48 acre of non -riparian wetland,
preserver 12.51 acres of US Section 404 wetlands and 5.31 acres of upland buffer, as well as avoid and

T'he Wt 11ewA Ir 6uppleffiamw In€er-rmt1en (R&Ased 8y29J/1 �) 6EGI
minimize, through construction methods, impacts to wetlands. The mitigation was sufficient to offset the
impact of 0.43 acre of non -riparian, pine flat wetlands.
SEGi delineated the wetland mitigation area to determine what, if any, of the feature that currently did not
meet the success criteria. It was determined that approximately 1280 square feet (see Appendix J), does not
meet the hydrologic and/or vegetative success criteria, outlined in the Willows Mitigation Plan. In total, the
Applicant has successfully created 0.45 acre of non -riparian wetland. As a contingency plan, the Applicant
proposes to offset the deficit with payment to the LCFUMB, at a 1:1 mitigation to impact ratio. The proposed
1:1 mitigation to impact ratio is consistent with the original mitigation to impact ratio for this component of
the mitigation plan.
B. Individual Permit
Based on the type of wetland being impacted (i.e. pine flat) and its functional value being low, the Applicant
intends to offset the newly proposed impact with payment to the Lower Cape Fear Umbrella Mitigation Bank
(LCFUMB), at a 1 to 1 mitigation -to -impact ratio. SEGi and the Applicant believe that the proposed
mitigation is sufficient to offset the impact. A letter of acceptance, from LCFUMB, has been attached to this
document (see Appendix I).
C. Cumulative Impacts and Mitigation Plan
The table below provides a summary of the cumulative impacts, associated with the project, as well as the
compensatory mitigation plan for the Willows.
Table 2 Summary of mitigation for the Willows Subdivision
Note: " * "indicates the mitigation acreage is proposed, while bold text denotes the actual acreage provided
X. Conclusion
hi summary, to facilitate the extension of Curran Court, which would terminate into a cul-de-sac that would
provide access to four buildable lots within the existing Willows Subdivision, the fill 0.07 -acre of USACE
Section 404, pine flat wetlands is necessary. Avoidance and minimization efforts were incorporated into the plan
during the design and construction phases of the project, as well as the investigation of alternative analysis to the
proposed impact, as per the 40(b)(1) guidelines. The Applicant intends to offset the newly proposed impact with
payment, to the LCFUMB, for 0.07 -acre of non -riparian wetland restoration credit. In addition, the Applicant
proposed to purchase 0.03 -acre of non -riparian wetland restoration credit from the LCFUMB, to offset the area of
the created wetland that does not meet the success criteria. In total, the Applicant will have mitigated for 0.50 acre
of non -riparian wetland impact with 18.29 acres of mitigation. SEGi and the Applicant feel the project, as
proposed, is the least environmentally damaging, practicable alternative.
