Dear Mr. Kichefski and Ms. Higgins:
On behalf of Piedmont Natural Gas (PNG), S &ME, Inc. (S &ME) hereby submits this
application for re- authorization of a previously- approved Nationwide Permit (NWT) and
the corresponding North Carolina Water Quality Certification (WQC), which have
expired prior to the project's construction. PNG, the project sponsor, will continue to be
considered the applicant. S &ME is acting on behalf of PNG in accordance with their
acceptance of our Work Authorization Form dated April 6, 2011, and our Master
Services Agreement (S &ME Proposal No. 1357- 18259 -07), dated October 1, 2008.
The project has not changed since its original authorization, and involves construction of
approximately 10,000 linear feet (1.89 miles) of six -inch diameter natural gas pipeline in
Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, and will involve no loss of waters of the U.S. In
support of this application, please find enclosed the following:

Appendix IV: Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. Impact Plan Drawings (Sheets 1 -12);
Appendix V: Agency Correspondence; and
Appendix VI: Restoration Plan.
This Pre - construction Notification (PCN) is being provided to the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) for re- authorization, and complies with all applicable conditions of
NWP No. 12. Written concurrence from the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
(NCDWQ) is also required in part because the proposed project does not meet all
conditions of the WQC, specifically:
The proposed gas line will not cross all streams within the project corridor at a near -
perpendicular angle because much of the project will parallel an existing utility
corridor. Because the existing utility corridor does not cross all streams within the
tolerance identified in the aforementioned WQC, the proposed project will also not
meet this requirement.
The proposed project will require permanently- maintained rights -of -way (ROW) that
exceed 15 feet in width through jurisdictional areas at some locations. The general
WQC includes an exemption for natural gas pipelines, provided that mitigation is
offered for conversion of forested wetlands to herbaceous wetlands due to the
additional maintained width. To meet their operational requirements, PNG is
requesting an additional 15 feet for a total maintained width of 30 feet at stream and
wetland crossings. This is the minimum width required to support: 1) leakage
surveys from ground mobile units or aerial technology; 2) aerial patrolling for
possible encroachment activity near the pipeline; 3) accurate identification of possible
repairs and maintenance; 4) promotion of damage prevention in that the ROW can be
more easily identified by the public; 5) minimization of potential canopy
encroachment, which creates visibility concerns, and; 6) minimum turn - around
requirements for mechanized mowing and side - trimming equipment.
GENERAL PROJECT INFORMATION AND HISTORY
PNG plans to install approximately 1.89 miles of natural gas line in Mecklenburg
County, N.C. The proposed pipeline originates southeast of Baylis Drive along an
existing pipeline line corridor. The pipeline then extends east, roughly paralleling Gilead
Road to the north and McDowell Creek to the south. The pipeline adjoins an existing
sewer easement, and will cross the confluence of McDowell Creek and Torrence Creek
via horizontal directional drill (HDD). The pipeline continues to parallel Torrence Creek
and the existing sewer easement, crossing Bradford Lane and then a portion of Old
Gilead Road (an abandoned roadway), within which the pipeline will be installed. The
pipeline will tie into an existing distribution line at the intersection of Gilead Road and
McCoy Road west of Huntersville, North Carolina.
The primary purpose of the project is to alleviate drops in pressure experienced by the
existing distribution gas line systems during peak demands, and to provide adequate
capacity pursuant to the required service level in Huntersville and its immediate vicinity.

Re- authorization of NWP No. 12M/QC No. 3884 SWE Project No. 1357 -11 -005
PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
The ROW is primarily located adjacent to existing pipeline and sewerline corridors and
passes through fields, wooded, residential, and commercial areas. The location of the
subject corridor is depicted on the Site Vicinity Map (Figure 1), portions of the 1996
Lake Norman South and Cornelius, N.C. USGS Topographic Quad Sheets (Figures 2),
and an Aerial Photograph dated 2009 (Figure 3).
The project as currently proposed was approved by the USACE on January 30, 2012
(Action ID No. 2012 - 00182) and by NCDWQ on January 23, 2012 (Project No. 11-
1126). Copies of the approval letters have been included in Appendix I. Subsequent to
permit authorization, PNG encountered delays in property acquisition, coordination with
the City's plans to construct a bicycle path on the adjoining greenway, and approval from
the Charlotte - Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks Commission regarding a Certificate of
Appropriateness for construction of the project near the Torrence Mill historic site. Since
that time, the land has been acquired, arrangements have been made to accommodate the
City, and the Certificate of Appropriateness has been acquired. PNG is now ready to
move forward with the project as it was originally proposed, but needs to acquire new
permits, as both the existing NWP and WQC have expired.
To minimize impacts, PNG elected to co- locate the proposed line adjacent to an existing
utility corridor where possible. To further minimize disturbance to jurisdictional Waters
of the U.S., PNG plans to limit the width of the proposed ROW at stream and wetland
crossings. The work will be conducted within a 40 -foot ROW, 10 feet of which will
consist of temporary work space (TWS), with the remaining 30 feet consisting of a
permanently- maintained easement. Four of the proposed wetland or stream crossings
will be conducted via "trenchless" methods (HDD or bore), and a fifth will be avoided
entirely. The remaining wetland crossings will be conducted via conventional methods.
While the project will result in no loss of waters of the U.S., 0.59 acre of forested wetland
will be converted to herbaceous wetlands.
DESCRIPTION OF THE PROPOSED WORK
Construction will first involve identification of the clearing limits, followed by removal
of aboveground woody vegetation from the proposed ROW and TWS either by
mechanical means or hand - clearing, as appropriate. Efforts will be made to remove trees
in a manner that minimizes disturbance of the forest floor, and prevents exposure of soil.
No grubbing or belowground vegetation removal will occur within wetlands, or along
streambanks outside of the temporary crossing footprints. Select portions of the ROW
and TWS may require rough grading to facilitate safe passage of equipment, and to
prepare a suitably -level work surface. Appropriate sediment and erosion control
measures will be installed following initial soil disturbance as the project progresses.
Where wetlands or streams will be crossed, the width of the ROW subject to vegetation
removal will be dictated by the method employed to construct the pipeline:
• Method 1: HDD or bored crossings (collectively referred to as "trenchless crossings ")
will involve aboveground removal of vegetation within the proposed corridor that
will not exceed 40 feet in width. A temporary equipment crossing will be installed
Re- authorization of NWP No. 12M/QC No. 3884 SWE Project No. 1357 -11 -005
PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
along one side of the ROW to facilitate equipment passage and prevent excessive
rutting and ground disturbance in wetlands and streams. Streams will be bridged by
use of bolted timber mats, modified railcars or similar measures that limit temporary
bank impacts. No other impacts will be associated with this type of crossing.
Method 2: At wetland and stream crossings that will be constructed using traditional
trenching methods, vegetation will be removed within the 40 -foot combined ROW
and TWS corridor. Timber mats /bridges will be employed for equipment to work and
travel on. Appropriate sediment and erosion control measures will be installed at all
crossings to prevent sedimentation of jurisdictional features as a result of
construction. Streambank vegetation within the corridor will be hand cleared, and
introduction of logging debris into streams or wetlands will be avoided to the extent
practicable.
In general, the pipe will be trucked to the site from a temporary storage yard, strung along
the ROW and placed on skids (wooden pedestals). Specialized machines will be used to
bend individual segments of pipe to fit the contours of the trench where necessary. The
pipe segments will be welded together, x -rayed and inspected for structural integrity, and
then lowered into the trench. Segments of the trench may require dewatering or
"padding" to prevent large rocks or other debris from coming in contact with the pipe.
Permanent trench breakers will then be installed where necessary and the trench
backfilled. In areas where segregation of the subsoil and topsoil is required (wetlands),
the topsoil will be replaced last. Affected areas will then be "cleaned up" by rough -
grading and temporary seeding (if necessary), followed by final grading, permanent
seeding and mulching to restore the ROW as closely as possible to pre- disturbance
contours and conditions.
Areas within wetlands that are disturbed will be seeded with a customized wetland seed
mix. Areas outside of the permanently maintained ROW will be allowed to revegetate
naturally. Streambanks temporarily affected by removal of bank vegetation and
placement of the equipment bridge will be stabilized with a separate native seed mix
specifically designed for riparian areas, placement of coir matting, and installation of
native woody plantings (livestakes or tubelings). No riprap will be employed on the
streambanks following construction.
EXISTING ENVIRONMENT
General land use in the vicinity of the project corridor consists of a mix of residential
areas, open field, forest, disturbed areas and maintained utility corridors. The proposed
pipeline is located in the Piedmont physiographic province. The Piedmont of North
Carolina is an area underlain by soils weathered in place from the parent crystalline
metamorphic and igneous bedrock material. Specific soil types along the proposed
pipeline corridor include well- drained Cecil sandy clay loam located on ridges and
somewhat poorly drained Monacan loam located on floodplains. Within the project area
elevations range from approximately 660 ft AMSL along Torrence Creek at the western
end of the pipeline to 730 ft AMSL along the ridgetops near the eastern end of the

PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
pipeline. The proposed corridor is located in the Yadkin -Pee Dee River Basin, and runs
parallel McDowell Creek, Torrence Creek, and an unnamed tributary of Torrance Creek.
With respect to vegetation, commonly observed species occurring within the maintained
utility corridors included winged sumac (Rhus copallina), poison ivy (Toxicodendron
radicans), blackberry (Rubus spp.), trumpet creeper (Campsis radicans), partridge pea
(Chamaecrista fasciculata), creeping buttercup (Ranunculus repens), wild geranium
(Geranium maculatum), blue -eyed grass (Sisyrinchium spp.), wild onion (Allium sp.),
sericea lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata), dandelion (Taraxacum officinale), dogfennel
(Eupatorium capillifolium), broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus), goldenrod (Solidago
spp.), bedstraw (Galium spp.), Virginia strawberry (Fragaria virginiana), common sheep
sorrel (Rumex acetosella), Japanese honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica), porcelain berry
(Ampelopsis brevipedunculata), Japanese stiltgrass (Microstegium viminium), hop sedge
(Carex lupulina), soft rush (Juncus effesus), Bermuda grass (Cynodon dactylon) and
other various grasses (Festuca spp.).
Dominant vegetation observed within wooded portions of the project corridor and areas
that adjoined existing utility lines included boxelder (Acer negundo), red maple (A.
rubra), sweetgum (Liquidamber styracifZua), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), slippery
elm (Ulmus rubrum), Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense), giant cane (Arundinacea
gigantia), wingstem (Verbesina alternifolia), sawtooth blackberry, ebony spleenwort
(Asplenium platyneuron), and Nepalese brown -top (Eulalia vimineum).
Photos of the project corridor are included in Appendix III.
JURISDICTIONAL AREAS
On July 1 and 6, 2011 S &ME conducted a pedestrian review of the ROW to delineate
jurisdictional surface waters located within the project corridor. S &ME followed the
procedures set forth in the 1987 US Army Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation
Manual and the Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Supplemental Guidance. Field
conditions were documented using USACE Routine Wetland Determination Data Forms,
as appropriate. The field review also included identification of tributaries (streams)
within the project corridor. Drainage features identified during the field review were
assessed to determine the jurisdictional status of the tributary. Drainage features were
classified as either non - jurisdictional or jurisdictional. S &ME used the NC Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) Stream Classification Form to document characteristics of
identified drainage features on the day of the assessment.
Field review identified 10 regulated surface waters within the project corridor (six
wetlands and five streams), as identified below:
• Wetland A is a palustrine scrub -shrub and forested (PSS/FO) wetland that
receives drainage from adjacent wetlands. Dominant vegetation includes
boxelder, black willow (Salix nigra), broadleaf arrowhead (Sagittaria latifolia),
rice -cut grass (Leersia oryzoides), and jewelweed (Impatiens capensis). Hydric
soil indicators include a depleted matrix within 10 inches of the soil surface.
Re- authorization of NWP No. 12M/QC No. 3884 SWE Project No. 1357 -11 -005
PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
Wetland hydrology includes saturated soil at the surface and wetland drainage
patterns. Wetland A drains directly to McDowell Creek.
• Wetland B is a narrow, linear feature that receives drainage from a small tree
farm. Dominant vegetation includes beggars ticks (Bidens aristolosa), painted
ladies thumb (Polygonum persicaria), broadleaf arrowhead, and false nettle
(Boehmeria cylindrica). However, regular mowing and possible herbicide
application have removed most species. Hydric soil indicators include a depleted
matrix. Wetland hydrology includes silt deposits on plants and wetland drainage
patterns. Wetland B drains directly into McDowell Creek.
• Wetland C is a palustrine forested (PFO) wetland depression located within the
floodplain of Torrence Creek. Wetland hydrology is supported by runoff from
upland drainage and a high water table. Dominant vegetation includes green ash
(Fraxinus pennsylvanica), sycamore, sweetgum , red maple, American elm
(Ulmus americana), Chinese privet, lizards tail (Saururus cernuus), and
jewelweed. Hydric soil indicators present include a depleted matrix located
within the upper 10 inches of the soil and concretions. Wetland hydrology
indicators include water stained leaves and wetland drainage patterns.
• Wetland D is a narrow, palustrine emergent wetland (PEM) located within the
floodplain of Stream 4. This linear feature drains adjacent land and may have
been created during construction of the nearby housing development. Hydric soil
indicators present include a depleted matrix within 10 inches of the soil surface.
Wetland hydrology indicators present include soil saturation within 10 inches of
the soil surface and wetland drainage patterns.
• Wetlands E and F are similar to Wetland D. These are linear drainage features
likely created as part of an overall stormwater management system for the
housing development located to the north of the ROW; they each drain directly to
Stream 4.
• Stream 1 is an unnamed, perennial tributary to McDowell Creek. Within the
review area, this channel is 6 to 7 feet wide with banks 4 to 5 feet high. Perennial
stream indicators include the strong presence of a bed and bank, particle size
distribution, strong presence of baseflow, and the presence of fish.
• Stream 2 (McDowell Creek) is a USGS named, perennial stream that converges
with Torrence Creek immediately south of the ROW. Within the review area, this
channel is 25 to 30 feet wide with banks 7 to 9 feet high.
• Stream 3 is an unnamed, perennial tributary to Torrence Creek. Within the
review area, this channel is 10 to 12 feet wide with banks 4 to 5 feet high.
Perennial stream indicators include the presence of a continuous bed and bank,
evidence of a seasonal high water table, and the presence of fish.
C.
Re- authorization of NWP No. 12M/QC No. 3884 SWE Project No. 1357 -11 -005
PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
• Stream 4 is a third - order, perennial stream. Within the review, area the channel is
10 to 15 feet wide with banks 4 to 5 feet deep. Stream 4 flows to the southwest
for approximately 3,000 linear feet before converging with Torrence Creek.
Stream 4 will not be affected by the proposed project.
Results of S &ME's assessment were included in a Request for Jurisdictional
Determination package and provided to the USACE on July 13, 2011. The USACE
(Steve Kichefski) visited the project site on August 22, 2011 and concurred with S &ME's
findings.
PROPOSED PROJECT IMPACTS
The proposed project involves temporary wetland impacts that will occur as a result of
trench excavation, temporary sidecasting of material and placement of temporary
crossings for the equipment access. The project will result in conversion of forested
wetlands to herbaceous wetlands, but will not result in a loss of waters of the U.S. As
previously mentioned, temporarily- impacted wetlands, along with the TWS used during
construction, will be restored to their original grade and contour. Temporary stream
impacts will result from hand - removal of bank vegetation and placement of equipment
maps. Wetland and stream, impacts are identified in their respective tables in Appendix
II.
Project -wide wetland impacts (combined temporary and conversion) will be 0.990 acre,
much of which consists of herbaceous wetlands located within existing ROW. Of those
total impacts, maintenance of the new ROW will result in conversion of 0.059 acre of
forested wetland to herbaceous wetlands. The 10 -foot TWS will be restored, seeded and
allowed to return to its pre- disturbance vegetative condition, and will not result in
conversion, as future mowing or maintenance will not occur in the 10 -foot TWS
following construction.
The project will result in temporary impacts to 209 linear feet of stream through
placement of equipment bridges and temporary hand - removal of bank vegetation. All
streams will be crossed by "trenchless" methods.
Typical stream and wetland crossings details are depicted on Sheet 12 of 12 in Appendix
IV. Following construction, temporarily- disturbed wetlands within the permanent ROW
will be restored to an herbaceous state, while those within the TWS will be restored and
allowed to return to a forested condition. Affected streambanks will be reconstructed to
their pre- disturbance dimension and profile, and stabilized using coir matting and
vegetative plantings, without use of riprap or hard armoring.
PROTECTED SPECIES
To comply with applicable sections of the Endangered Species Act (ESA) of 1973 (16
USC 1531- 1543), S &ME submitted scoping letters to the North Carolina Natural
Heritage Program (NCNHP) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The scoping
packages were sent on April 25, 2011, and included U.S.G.S. topographic maps and
aerial photographs of the project route. The scoping packages requested that each agency
Re- authorization of NWP No. 12M/QC No. 3884 SWE Project No. 1357 -11 -005
PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
review records they may have had relating to rare, endangered, or threatened species, or
high quality natural communities within the vicinity of the project corridor, and provide
comment.
The NCNHP responded with May 9, 2011 letter recommending that the project be routed
on the north side of the McDowell /Torrence Creek confluence in order to avoid higher
slopes of an adjacent natural area. The NCNHP also stated that the significantly rare
northern cup plant (Silphium perfoliatum) had been identified in the vicinity in 1995, and
that S &ME review the area to identify any such populations.
In response, PNG has routed the proposed pipeline on the north side of the creek, thus
avoiding the aforementioned slopes located to the south. S &ME also performed as
assessment of the proposed project corridor on July 13, 2011, but did not identify
populations of northern cup plant on the north side of the creek.
The USFWS responded with a May 11, 2011 letter in which they requested that the
project area be surveyed for the federally - protected Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus
schweinitzii) and Georgia aster (Symphyotrichum georgianum), a federal candidate for
listing.
The USFWS also recommended use of directional boring methods at stream crossings,
and that corridor widths at stream crossing be minimized. At areas where boring cannot
be performed, crossings should be made perpendicular to the stream flow, and
development of a stream -bank monitoring and maintenance program to allow for prompt
stabilization of stream banks throughout the life of this project should be employed.
Lastly, the USFWS recommended that, given the proximity of the project to aquatic
environments, measures to control sediment and erosion should be installed before
ground disturbing activities occur. Grading and backfilling should be minimized, and
existing vegetation should be retained (if possible) to maintain shoreline cover for fish
and wildlife.
S &ME's assessment of the project corridor identified potentially - suitable habitat for
Schweinitz's sunflower and Georgia aster (the existing maintained sewerline) but, no
individuals of this species were observed during the field review. With respect to stream
crossings, PNG plans to conduct all crosses via HDD or bore. PNG will also implement
a plan to restore affected crossings to their original contours and stabilize affected banks
through use of coir fabric, a native, riparian seed mix and deep- rooted woody plantings in
lieu of rip -rap or hard armoring.
Copies of the May 9, 2011 NCNHP and May 11, 2011 USFWS correspondence letters
are included in Appendix V.
HISTORIC AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL RESOURCES
In response to a scoping letter submitted by S &ME to the North Carolina State Historic
Preservation Office (SHPO), the SHPO requested that a comprehensive archaeological
survey be conducted of the proposed project area. In addition, consultation with the
Re- authorization of NWP No. 12M/QC No. 3884 SWE Project No. 1357 -11 -005
PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
Office of State Archaeology (OSA) was required prior to the archaeological survey to
determine the appropriate field methodology. The resultant field methodology included
shovel test pits at 100 -foot intervals in high- probability areas and 200 - footintervals in
disturbed areas or areas having good surface visibility. In the vicinity of historic property
MK1482 (the James G. Torrance Mill Ruin), shovel test pits were excavated at 15 -foot
intervals to better define the site boundaries of the local landmark.
As a result of the survey, no new archaeological sites and no previously unrecorded
structures were identified. Three previously recorded historic properties were revisited.
Cedar Grove (MK5) is listed in the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). The
other two historic properties, the Hugh Torrance House and Store (MK5) and the James
G. Torrance Mill Ruin (MK1482), are recommended eligible for inclusion in the NRHP.
All three properties are designated Charlotte - Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks.
Based on the results of the archaeological survey, it is the opinion of S &ME that no
further archaeological investigations are needed along the proposed pipeline corridor.
The Hugh Torrance House and Store (MK5) is recommended eligible for inclusion in the
NRHP, but is located approximately 720 ft from the proposed project corridor and will
not be affected by the undertaking. Cedar Grove (MK4) and approximately eight acres of
surrounding property are listed in the NRHP, but the house and property are both located
north of Gilead Road, approximately 620 ft from the proposed project corridor and will
not be affected by the project. However, the Cedar Grove plantation house and
approximately 32 acres of property are designated as a Charlotte - Mecklenburg Historic
Landmark. Currently, the proposed project corridor crosses this designated property
along Torrance Creek, south of Gilead Road. Because of its local landmark designation,
PNG consulted with the Charlotte- Mecklenburg Landmarks Commission and received
their concurrence.
The James G. Torrance Mill Ruin is recommended eligible for inclusion in the NRHP.
The project corridor currently crosses a small portion of the 0.7 acre tract that is
designated as a Charlotte - Mecklenburg Historic Landmark. The project crosses a portion
of the millrace which has been mostly filled in and is difficult to recognize as a historic
mill feature. There were no archaeological resources associated with the mill found
during the Phase I survey and the proposed pipeline will be installed using HDD
techniques. As proposed, the project would have no adverse effect on the James G.
Torrance Mill Ruin.
Concurrence letters from the SHPO dated August 31, 2011 and December 1, 2011 are
included in Appendix V.
AVOIDANCE AND MINIMIZATION
To avoid and minimize impacts to waters of the U.S. within the project corridor, PNG has
proposed to install the new gas pipeline parallel to an existing, maintained pipeline ROW
wherever possible. One stream within the project corridor will be avoided entirely, and
the remainder will be crossed via trenchless methods. Combined temporary wetland
impacts and permanent conversion is limited to less than 0.10 acre.
Re- authorization of NWP No. 12M/QC No. 3884 SWE Project No. 1357 -11 -005
PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
Where streams are hand - cleared of vegetation and crossed with equipments mats, impacts
will be minimized by stabilizing the temporarily- affected banks with coir matting and
deep- rooted vegetation rather than riprap. Wetland impacts will also be minimized
during construction through the use of equipment mats at crossings and trench plugs to
prevent alterations to wetland hydrology.
Additionally, construction equipment operating within the wetland will be limited to that
necessary for clearing, excavation, pipe installation and restoration activities. Wetland
vegetation outside of the trench line will be cut at ground level, leaving existing root
systems in place to promote re- growth. To the extent practicable, wetland topsoil will be
segregated from the underlying subsoil in areas disturbed by trenching, except in areas
with standing water or saturated soils, or where no topsoil is evident. Within wetlands,
yearly vegetation maintenance will only be conducted within a 30 -foot corridor centered
on the new pipe. Remaining portions of the proposed ROW in wetlands will be seeded
with a wetland seed mix and allowed to revegetate naturally.
REGULATORY CONSIDERATIONS
The project will comply with all applicable conditions of NWP 12 and WQC 3884, with
the exception of those noted previously. The combined width of the TWS and the
permanent ROW will not exceed 40 feet in wetlands and at stream crossings, 10 feet of
which will not be maintained following construction. The proposed alignment makes use
of existing ROW to the maximum extent practicable.
All Stream work will be performed "in the dry" by isolating the work area through use of
dam and pump- around or dam and flume systems.
Following construction, stream and wetland crossings will be restored to original grade
and contour. The proposed project will not result in permanent changes in pre -
construction elevation contours or stream dimension, pattern or profile. Excess material
will be removed to a high ground disposal area. Cleared areas will be restored in
accordance with the attached Restoration Plan (Appendix VI) following completion of
the work.
Based on our experience with similar projects involving impacts authorized under NWP
No. 12, it is our understanding that impacts to streams and wetlands resulting from
construction of the proposed project will be considered temporary if these areas are
restored to original pre - construction contours once construction is completed, and do not
involve the permanent placement of hard armor in streams.
SEDIMENT AND EROSION CONTROL
Appropriate sediment and erosion control practices outlined in the most recent version of
the "North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual" and
approved by the local governing authority shall be in compliance with specifications
governing the proper design, installation, operation and maintenance of such Best
Management Practices to comply with the appropriate turbidity water quality standard.
Sediment and erosion control measures placed in waters will be removed and the original
10
Re- authorization of NWP No. 12M/QC No. 3884 SWE Project No. 1357 -11 -005
PNG Huntersville Strengthening December 17, 2012
grade restored. Appropriate measures will be taken during construction to allow flow and
circulation patterns of waters of the U.S. to remain unaffected.
MITIGATION
The project will not result in a loss of waters of the U.S. Conversion of forested
wetlands to herbaceous wetlands will not exceed 0.10 acre. Accordingly, mitigation
beyond the avoidance and minimization efforts detailed in this letter should not be
required by the USACE. Further, mitigation for wetland impacts that do not exceed one
acre is not required by DWQ.
Stream impacts associated with the project are also temporary and do not require
mitigation. The bed and banks of temporarily- affected stream channels will be restored
to their original dimension and profile, and stabilized with coir matting. Riprap will not
be employed. At both stream crossings and wetlands, PNG will use native seed mixes to
provide soil stabilization. Additionally, native woody vegetation will be installed at
stream crossings. The Restoration Plan submitted with this PCN outlines the seed mixes
and application methods (Appendix VI).
Mitigation has also been provided by avoidance and minimization procedures
implemented during the design phase of the proposed project. Impacts to streams and
wetlands within the project corridor will be minimized by: 1) use of the existing,
maintained ROW; 2) extensive use of trenchless crossings; and 3) by reducing both the
temporary construction and permanently maintained corridor widths to the minimum
necessary to adequately construct and maintain the project.
LOCAL ORDINANCES AND CONSERVATION EASEMENT
ENCROACHMENT
The project will result in impacts to water quality buffers subject to jurisdiction of
Charlotte - Mecklenburg County Storm Water Services ( CMSWS), but is exempt from the
associated mitigation requirements. Impacts to the buffers were coordinated with
CMSWS, and approved on January 24, 2012.
The project will also encroach within a portion of property subject to a proposed
conservation easement (CE). The CE was proposed in connection with the neighboring
Torrence Creek Stream Restoration Project, which is part of the City of Charlotte's
Umbrella Mitigation Bank. PNG coordinated the pipeline routing efforts with CMSWS
and City of Charlotte Real Estate Office personnel. In conjunction with the USACE, the
City determined the appropriate value by which the gasline would reduce future credit
available from the mitigation bank. Accordingly, PNG has appropriately compensate the
City for the loss of credit resulting from the pipeline's encroachment within the CE.
SECONDARY AND CUMULATIVE IMPACTS
The primary purpose of the project is to alleviate drops in pressure experienced by the
existing distribution gas line systems during peak demands, and upgrade a segment of
aging natural gas pipeline to accommodate existing development in the service area.
Accordingly, the project should not be considered growth- inducing in that it is unlikely to

impacts, or contribute to cumulative impacts.

Project Description
3a.
Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
A majority of the project will occur within or adjacent to existing, mainatined utility corridors. General land use in the
vicinity of the project corridor consists of mix of residential areas, a greenway, forest and open areas. Primary natural
habitat types consist of maintained utility corrdiors, pine and hardwood forests and floodplains. A variety of other land
use areas are located along the project corridor, and include landscaped or maintained lawns, roadway rights -of -way
(ROWs) or lightly - developed areas.
3b.
List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
Approximately 9 acres
3c.
List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
Approximately 300 linear feet
3d.
Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The primary purpose of the project is to alleviate drops in pressure experienced by the existing distribution gas line
systems during peak demands, and to provide adequate capacity pursuant to the required service level in Huntersville
and its immediate vicinity.
3e.
Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
Construction will first involve identification of the clearing limits, followed by removal of aboveground woody vegetation
from the proposed ROW and TWS either by mechanical means or hand - clearing, as appropriate. Efforts will be made to
remove trees in a manner that minimizes disturbance of the forest floor, and prevents exposure of soil. No grubbing or
belowground vegetation removal will occur within wetlands, or along streambanks outside of the temporary crossing
footprints. Select portions of the ROW and TWS may require rough grading to facilitate safe passage of equipment, and
to prepare a suitably -level work surface. Appropriate sediment and erosion control measures will be installed following
initial soil disturbance as the project progresses.
Where wetlands or streams will be crossed, the width of the ROW subject to vegetation removal will be dictated by the
method employed to construct the pipeline:
Method 1: HDD or bored crossings (collectively referred to as "trenchless crossings ") will involve aboveground removal of
vegetation within the proposed corridor that will not exceed 40 feet in width. A temporary equipment crossing will be
installed along one side of the ROW to facilitate equipment passage and prevent excessive rutting and ground
disturbance in wetlands and streams. Streams will be bridged by use of bolted timber mats, modified railcars or similar
measures that limit temporary bank impacts. No other impacts will be associated with this type of crossing.
Method 2: At wetland and stream crossings that will be constructed using traditional trenching methods, vegetation will be
removed within the 40 -foot combined ROW and TWS corridor. Timber mats /bridges will be again be employed for
equipment to work and travel on. Appropriate sediment and erosion control measures will be installed at all crossings to
prevent sedimentation of jurisdictional features as a result of construction. Streambank vegetation within the corridor will
be hand cleared, and introduction of logging debris into streams or wetlands will be avoided to the extent practicable.
In general, the pipe will be trucked to the site from a temporary storage yard, strung along the ROW and placed on skids
(wooden pedestals). Specialized machines will be used to bend individual segments of pipe to fit the contours of the
trench where necessary. The pipe segments will be welded together, x -rayed and inspected for structural integrity, and
then lowered into the trench. Segments of the trench may require dewatering or "padding" to prevent large rocks or other
debris from coming in contact with the pipe. Permanent trench breakers will then be installed where necessary and the
trench backfilled. In areas where segregation of the subsoil and topsoil is required (wetlands), the topsoil will be replaced
last. Affected areas will then be "cleaned up" by rough - grading and temporary seeding (if necessary), followed by final
grading, permanent seeding and mulching to restore the ROW as closely as possible to pre- disturbance contours and
conditions.
Areas within wetlands that are disturbed will be seeded with a customized wetland seed mix. Areas outside of the
permanently maintained ROW will be allowed to revegetate naturally. Streambanks temporarily affected by removal of
bank vegetation and placement of the equipment bridge will be stabilized with a separate native seed mix specifically
designed for riparian areas, placement of coir matting, and installation of native woody plantings (livestakes or tubelings).
No riprap will be employed on the streambanks following construction.

this project (including all prior phases) in the past?
5b. If yes, explain in detail according to "help file" instructions.
The project as currently proposed was approved by the USACE on January 30, 2012 (Action ID No. 2012 - 00182) and by
NCDWQ on January 23, 2012 (Project No. 11- 1126). Subsequent to permit authorization, PNG encountered delays in
property acquisition, coordination with the City's plans to construct a bicycle path on the adjoining greenway, and
approval from the Charlotte - Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks Commission regarding a Certificate of Appropriateness for
construction of the project near the Torrence Mill historic site. Since that time, the land has been acquired, arrangements
have been made to accommodate the City, and the Certificate of Appropriateness has been acquired. PNG is now ready
to move forward with the project as it was originally proposed, but needs to acquire new permits, as both the existing
NWP and WQC have expired.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
To avoid and minimize impacts to waters of the U.S. within the project corridor, PNG has proposed to install the new gas
pipeline parallel to an existing, maintained pipeline ROW wherever possible. One stream within the project corridor will be
avoided entirely, and the remainder will be crossed via trenchless methods.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Where streams are hand - cleared of vegetation and crossed with equipments mats, impacts will be minimized by stabilizing the
temporarily- affected banks with coir matting and deep- rooted vegetation rather than riprap. Wetland impacts will also be
minimized during construction through the use of equipment mats at crossings and trench plugs to prevent alterations to
wetland hydrology.
Additionally, construction equipment operating within the wetland will be limited to that necessary for clearing, excavation, pipe
installation and restoration activities. Wetland vegetation outside of the trench line will be cut at ground level, leaving existing
root systems in place to promote re- growth. To the extent practicable, wetland topsoil will be segregated from the underlying
subsoil in areas disturbed by trenching, except in areas with standing water or saturated soils, or where no topsoil is evident.
Within wetlands, yearly vegetation maintenance will only be conducted within a 30 -foot corridor centered on the new pipe.
Remaining portions of the proposed ROW in wetlands will be seeded with a wetland seed mix and allowed to revegetate
naturally.

Service on April 25, 2011. The NCNHP responded with May 9, 2011 letter recommending that the project be routed on
the north side of the McDowell /Torrence Creek confluence in order to avoid higher slopes of an adjacent natural area.
The NCNHP also stated that the significantly rare northern cup plant (Silphium perfoliatum) had been identified in the
vicinity in 1995, and that S &ME review the area to identify any such populations. In response, PNG has routed the
proposed pipeline on the north side of the creek, thus avoiding the aforementioned slopes located to the south. S &ME
also performed as assessment of the proposed project corridor on July 13, 2011, but did not identify populations of
northern cup plant on the north side of the creek.
The USFWS responded with a May 11, 2011 letter in which they requested that the project area be surveyed for the
federally - protected Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii) and Georgia aster (Symphyotrichum georgianum), a
federal candidate for listing. The USFWS also recommended use of directional boring methods at stream crossings, and
that corridor widths at stream crossing be minimized. At areas where boring cannot be performed, crossings should be
made perpendicular to the stream flow, and development of a stream -bank monitoring and maintenance program to allow
for prompt stabilization of stream banks throughout the life of this project should be employed. Lastly, the USFWS
recommended that, given the proximity of the project to aquatic environments, measures to control sediment and erosion
should be installed before ground disturbing activities occur. Grading and backfilling should be minimized, and existing
vegetation should be retained (if possible) to maintain shoreline cover for fish and wildlife.
S &ME's assessment of the project corridor identified potentially - suitable habitat for Schweinitz's sunflower and Georgia
aster (the existing maintained sewerline), but no individuals of this species were observed during the field review. With
respect to stream crossings, PNG plans to conduct all crosses via HDD or bore. PNG will also implement a plan to
restore affected crossings to their original contours and stabilize affected banks through use of coir fabric, a native,
riparian seed mix and deep- rooted woody plantings in lieu of rip -rap or hard armoring.
Copies of the May 9, 2011 NCNHP and May 11, 2011 USFWS correspondence letters are included in Appendix V.

7. Historic or Prehistoric Cultural Resources (Corps Requirement)
7a. Will this project occur in or near an area that the state, federal or tribal
governments have designated as having historic or cultural preservation
❑ Yes ® No
status (e.g., National Historic Trust designation or properties significant in
North Carolina history and archaeology)?
7b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact historic or archeological resources?
In response to a scoping letter submitted by S &ME to the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO), the
SHPO requested that a comprehensive archaeological survey be conducted of the proposed project area. In addition,
consultation with the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) was required prior to the archaeological survey to determine the
appropriate field methodology. The resultant field methodology included shovel test pits at 100 -foot intervals in high -
probability areas and 200 - footintervals in disturbed areas or areas having good surface visibility. In the vicinity of historic
property MK1482 (the James G. Torrance Mill Ruin), shovel test pits were excavated at 15 -foot intervals to better define
the site boundaries of the local landmark.
As a result of the survey, no new archaeological sites and no previously unrecorded structures were identified. Three
previously recorded historic properties were revisited. Cedar Grove (MK5) is listed in the National Register of Historic
Places (NRHP). The other two historic properties, the Hugh Torrance House and Store (MK5) and the James G. Torrance
Mill Ruin (MK1482), are recommended eligible for inclusion in the NRHP. All three properties are designated Charlotte -
Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks.
Based on the results of the archaeological survey, it is the opinion of S &ME that no further archaeological investigations
are needed along the proposed pipeline corridor. The Hugh Torrance House and Store (MK5) is recommended eligible for
inclusion in the NRHP, but is located approximately 720 ft from the proposed project corridor and will not be affected by
the undertaking. Cedar Grove (MK4) and approximately eight acres of surrounding property are listed in the NRHP, but
the house and property are both located north of Gilead Road, approximately 620 ft from the proposed project corridor
and will not be affected by the project. However, the Cedar Grove plantation house and approximately 32 acres of
property are designated as a Charlotte - Mecklenburg Historic Landmark. Currently, the proposed project corridor crosses
this designated property along Torrance Creek, south of Gilead Road. Because of its local landmark designation, PNG
consulted with the Charlotte- Mecklenburg Landmarks Commission to receive a Certificate of Appropriateness.
The James G. Torrance Mill Ruin is recommended eligible for inclusion in the NRHP. The project corridor currently
crosses a small portion of the 0.7 acre tract that is designated as a Charlotte - Mecklenburg Historic Landmark. The project
crosses a portion of the millrace which has been mostly filled in and is difficult to recognize as a historic mill feature.
There were no archaeological resources associated with the mill found during the Phase I survey and the proposed
pipeline will be installed using HDD techniques. As proposed, the project would have no adverse effect on the James G.
Torrance Mill Ruin.
Concurrence letters from the SHPO dated August 31, 2011 and December 1, 2011 is included in Appendix V.
8. Flood Zone Designation (Corps Requirement)
8a. Will this project occur in a FEMA- designated 100 -year floodplain?
® Yes ❑ No
8b. If yes, explain how project meets FEMA requirements: The project will comply with all FEMA regulations.
8c. What source(s) did you use to make the floodplain determination? Available FEMA mapping

Mecklenburg County, ER 11 -0749
Dear Ms. Nagle:
Thank you for your letter of July 29, 2011, transmitting the above referenced report. The report author states
that no previously known or newly recorded archaeological sites were identified within the confines of the
project corridor,and that no additional archaeological investigations are necessary or warranted. We concur
with this assessment.
We have determined that the project as proposed will not have an effect on any historic structures.
The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the
Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR
Part 800.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions concerning the above comment,
please contact Renee Gledhill- Earley, environmental review coordinator, at 919 -807 -6579. In all future

Subject: Listed Species Assessment, Proposed PNG Huntersville Pipeline Installation Project,
located East of Vance Road North, West of Huntersville, Meclenburg County, North
Carolina
Dear Ms. Fox:
On April 29, 2011, we received a letter from you requesting our comments about the subject
project. We have reviewed the information you presented and are providing the following
comments in accordance with the provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 661- 667e), and section 7 of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as
amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 -1543) (Act).
According to the information that you presented, PNG is proposing to install a new natural gas
pipeline near Huntersville. The pipeline will be installed parallel to an existing sewer line.
However, a new 50 -foot right -of -way will be cleared for the new gas line. A majority of the
project area is undeveloped and forested with areas of open agricultural land. The installation of
the pipeline will require several stream crossings of Torrence Creek and unnamed tributary(ies) to
Torrence Creek. Your letter states that a Section 404 /Clean Water Act permit will be needed but
did not include specific details as to the amount of stream and wetland impacts associated with
the project. Also, the letter did it include specific plans as to stream crossing method(s) that will
be used.
Endangered Species. Based on the project location and pictures obtained from the Union
County GIS web site, there appears to be suitable habitat for the federally endangered
Schweinitz's sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii). This plant has been found within a few miles
of the project site. Schweinitz's sunflower occurs in relatively open habitats —road, power line,
and other maintained rights -of -way; early successional fields; forest ecotonal margins; forest
clearings; etc. The species thrives in full sun but also grows in the light shade of open stands of
oak- pine - hickory. Schweinitz's sunflower generally occurs on soils characterized as moist to
dryish clays, clay - loams, or sandy -clay loams that often have high gravel content. The species is
known from a variety of soil types, including Iredell (Fine, Montmorillonitic, Thermic Typic
Hapluduff), Enon (Fine, Mixed, Thermic Ultic Hapludalf), and Cecil (Clayey, Kaolinitic,
Thermic Typic Hapludult). Unless an area has been specifically surveyed for this listed species
or no appropriate habitat exists, a survey should be conducted to ensure that this species is not
inadvertently lost. Schweinitz's sunflower is difficult to identify at any time, but even more so
outside the flowering season of late August to October, so we recommend that surveys for this
species be conducted during this period. In accordance with the Act, it is the responsibility of
the appropriate federal agency or its designated representative to review its activities or programs
and to identify any such activities or programs that may affect endangered or threatened species
or their habitats. If it is determined that the proposed activity may adversely affect any species
federally listed as endangered or threatened, formal consultation with this office must be
initiated.
We also have records of Georgia aster (Symphyotrichum georgianum), a federal candidate for
listing' in the area. Although the provisions of section 7 of the Act do not currently apply to
candidate species, we would greatly appreciate your assistance in determining if any are present
within the project corridor. If any are present, impacts to them should be avoided. Georgia
aster, like Schweinitz's sunflower, is difficult to identify outside its flowering season (early
October to mid - November), and it resembles two other asters that often occur in the same habitat
types (dry open woods along roadsides and utility corridors, overgrown rights -of -way, woodland
borders, old fields, and pastures). Surveys conducted during the period of mid - September
through mid - October would cover the flowering seasons for both Schweinitz's sunflower and
Georgia aster.
Stream Crossings - We are concerned with the stream- crossing technique (open -cut trenching)
that is being proposed for this project. From our past experiences with similar projects, we
believe this technique increases the likelihood of future lateral movement of the stream (which
could undercut or erode around the utility line), and the correction of these problems could result
in additional future maintenance and impacts to the stream. Therefore, we recommend the use of
directional boring under the stream in order to prevent stream impacts. All utility crossings
should be kept to a minimum, and all utility infrastructures should be kept out of riparian buffer
areas. Directional boring under streams significantly minimizes impacts to aquatic resources and
riparian buffers. If this method cannot be used and trenching is determined to be the only viable
method, the crossing should be made perpendicular to the stream flow, and we recommend the
development of a stream -bank monitoring and maintenance program that would allow for the
prompt stabilization of stream banks near the utility crossing (should any stream -bank erosion or
destabilization occur) throughout the life of this project.
Erosion Control and Wetland/Stream Protection. Given the proximity of the project to
aquatic environments, measures to control sediment and erosion should be installed before any
ground disturbing activities occur. Grading and backfilling should be minimized, and existing
vegetation should be retained (if possible) to maintain shoreline cover for fish and wildlife.
' "Taxa for which the [Fish and Wildlife] Service has on file enough substantial information on biological
vulnerability and threat(s) to support proposals to list them as endangered or threatened. Proposed rules have not yet
been issued because this action is precluded at present by other listing activity. Development and publication of
proposed rules on these taxa are anticipated. The Service encourages State and other Federal agencies as well as
other affected parties to give consideration to these taxa in environmental planning" (Federal Register, February 28,
1996). Taxa formerly considered as "Category 1" are now considered as "candidates."
Disturbed areas should be revegetated with native grass and tree species as soon as the project is
completed.

Dear Ms. Fox:
Thank you for your letter of April 25, 2011, concerning the above project.
Based on the probable location of a water - powered mill in the immediate project area, we have determined that
there is a high probability that additional archaeological sites may exist within the project area. We therefore
recommend that if any earth moving activities are scheduled to take place, that a comprehensive archaeological
survey be conducted by an experienced archaeologist to identify and evaluate the significance of any
archaeological remains that may be damaged or destroyed by the proposed project. Please note that in reference to
this project, our office requires that prior to the initiation of the archaeological eld investigation consultation with the Office of State
Archaeology be undertaken to determine the appropriate field methodology.
If an archaeological field investigation is conducted, two copies of the resulting archaeological survey report, as
well as one copy of the appropriate site forms should be forwarded to us for review and comment as soon as
they are available and well in advance of any earth moving activities.
We have determined that the project as proposed will not have an effect on any historic structures.
The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and and the
Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR
Part 800.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions concerning the above comment,
please contact Renee Gledhill- Earley, environmental review coordinator, at 919 - 807 -6579. In all future
communication concerning this project, please cite the above - referenced tracking number.
Sincerely,
l V .._

Dear Ms. Cox:
Dee Freeman, Secretary
The Natural Heritage Program has several records of rare species, significant natural heritage areas,
and/or conservation /managed areas within the project area. The proposed pipeline comes very close to
impacting the Regionally significant McDowell /Torrence Creek Confluence Slopes natural area, located
just south of McDowell Creek (see enclosed snap). The project maps (Figures 2 and 3) suggested that the
pipeline to be located on the south side of the creels and thus would cut across the lower slopes of the
natural area. However, an e -mail from Joey Lawler, of S &ME, dated May 5, indicated that the pipeline
would be moved to the north side of the creek, avoiding the natural area.
The State Significantly Rare northern cup -plant (Silphiuin per.foliatum) is found in a scattered population
(at least when last observed in 1995) on both sides of the creek in the same vicinity (see attached
material). Some plants were present along the margins of the existing sewerline right -of -way on the
north side of the creels, where the gasline will also be placed. Thus, it is possible that a few plants could
be lost with the construction, but that plants might appear afterwards along the right -of -way margins.
And, with some plants on the south side of the creek, it is likely that the population will still be present
after construction. Nonetheless, S &ME staff may want to search for this plant before construction, to
flag off the plants or the plant habitats, such that any damage can be minimized.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at 919 -715 -8697 if you have questions or need further information.
Sincerely,

APPENDIX VI:
RESTORATION PLAN
RESTORATION PLAN
PNG Huntersville Strengthening Project
Huntersville, North Carolina
The proposed project has been designed to avoid and minimize jurisdictional impacts
where practicable. As part of mitigation for unavoidable impacts, the following plan shall
be implemented to restore temporarily- affected wetlands and streams. This plan entails
restoration of temporarily- disturbed areas to their original contours and conditions to the
degree practicable upon project completion. Further, disturbed wetland areas and
streambanks will be permanently stabilized with a native vegetative cover. Affected
streambanks will also be planted with woody species. The measures outlined below will
be specified in the contract documents prepared for construction of the proposed project.
Proposed restoration activities will include the removal of placed fill material and
restoration of original pre- disturbance contours. Excavated material shall be returned to
the trench to the extent possible, and remaining material relocated and retained on an
upland site. Excavated topsoil will be stockpiled separately, kept viable, and then replaced
uniformly over the area of excavation from which it was removed. The native seed mix
identified in Table 1 below will be utilized within temporarily- disturbed portions of the
ROW comprised of wetlands.

Additionally, stream crossings will be stabilized with coir matting and the affected banks
revegetated using native woody species. In the event that restoration of the temporarily -
impacted streams occurs during the dormant season, woody plantings will likely consist of a
combination of live stake and bare root species (Table 3). In the event that restoration takes
place during the growing season, supplemental plantings will likely consist of containerized
species (Table 4).
