Cumberland County Landfill Borrow Area
Supplemental Information
This document provides supplemental information in support of an Individual Department of
the Army Permit application for the Cumberland County Landfill borrow area.
Block 18 — Nature of Activity
Cumberland County currently operates a municipal solid waste (Subtitle D) landfill located in
North Fayetteville at the terminus of Ann Street The landfill property, adjacent to the Cape
Fear River, in northern Fayetteville, contains multiple former and operational landfills and
supporting treatment facilities including a borrow area. Last year, while updating the
sediment and erosion control permit for the borrow area, CDM Smith and the County
identified areas of potential wetland impacts, notified the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers of
this potential impact, and began delineations and documentation of the impacts. Landfill
operations are ongoing with the existing and planned landfill cells expected to reach their
capacity within approximately 15 years, and borrow materials will continue to be required to
support daily cover requirements.
The Ann Street landfill has been in operation since the 1980s and currently includes two
operating landfill units on site - a municipal solid waste (Subtitle D) landfill and a
Construction and Demolition Debris (C &D) landfill - as well as two closed facilities. The
municipal and C &D landfills are expected to operate, at a minimum, another 15 years. The
landfill units serve as an environmentally safe and cost- effective means of waste disposal for
the County's municipal partners along with the private hauler community that picks up and
delivers waste to the landfill.
The County needs to maintain this facility to continue to meet its objective to provide for
efficient use of the sanitary landfill and to further the County's efforts in developing future
solid waste disposal programs which will conserve natural resources and reduce the volume,
and dispose of nop- recoverable wastes in an environmentally sound manner.
The existing and proposed borrow areas continue to provide the County with materials
needed to efficiently and effectively manage landfill construction and daily solid waste
operations. Without a reliable borrow material source, the facility would be unable to
maintain economical and environmentally safe operations.
The estimated volume of material needed for additional facility construction, daily cover
operations and final cover operations is approximately 1,138,000 cubic yards. As first
choice, these materials are expected to come from the remaining open space available on the
property (outside waters of the U.S.). As required, the County has evaluated the long -term
needs of the facility and considered future site requirements for borrow and potential future
impacts. The County provides justification that the impacts are not avoidable in a practicable

manner consistent with Section 404(b) of the CWA. Refer to Appendix C, Alternatives Analysis.
Wetlands on Site
jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. in the borrow area were delineated, mapped, and verified by the Corps
in 1999. In 2013, the previous delineation was verified, and additional wetlands outside the borrow
area were delineated. Documentation associated with both the 1999 delineation and 2013 delineation
areas is provided as Appendix B.
The wetlands on the borrow area site on the east side of the landfill property between the operating
landfill cells and the Cape Fear River were delineated in 1999, prior to the wetland- impacting activities.
In 2013, the wetland boundaries were confirmed to be in conformance with the 2008 Interim Regional
Supplement to the Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual: Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain
Region (except where impacts have occurred). A licensed surveyor has marked the identified wetlands
in the field by replacing flags and staking the boundaries. According to the surveyed delineation
records, a total of 7.48 acres of wetlands were delineated within the borrow area site as listed in Table
1 and as shown on Figure A -2, in Appendix A. The 1999 delineation was reviewed by the Corps in
2013 and is anticipated to be verified along with the other wetlands on site.

Outside the borrow area, all additional site wetlands were delineated in August 2013 by Axiom
Environmental Inc., as listed in fable 2 and shown on Figure A -3. These wetlands have all three
criteria for jurisdictional wetlands, but may be isolated due to a lack of hydrologic connectivity.
Together with the 1999 delineation, these wetlands comprise a complete inventory of the site wetlands
on the site land otherwise available for development Table 2 lists the wetland areas delineated in 2013
with a total of 13.73 acres of wetlands on the site (both within and outside the borrow areas). The site
wetlands appear to have been formed on a floodplain terrace of the Cape Fear River and are classified
as hardwood flats according to the North Carolina Wetlands Assessment Method (NCWAM). The
floodplain terrace that spans the borrow area and continues to the south of the borrow area has a flat
area approximately 300 feet in width. The soils in this area have a high clay content causing incident
rainfall to remain on the surface without infiltrating. Rainfall is the only source of water for the
hardwood flats, because they receive no inflow and are elevated from the Cape Fear River although they
are in the regulated 100 -year FEMA floodplain. Historically, the area may have received runoff flows
from a drainage area encompassing some of the current landfill area that now drains to the north. The
smith

vegetative conditions of the majority of the wetlands do not differ much from the surrounding forest
due to the short seasonal hydroperiod.
The site wetlands are characterized as perched, depressional, ephemeral, forested wetlands and
provide minimal ecological functions relative to higher quality, more hydrologically connected,
perennial wetlands. Results of the NCWAM ratings conducted in August 2013 indicate the wetlands are
generally of medium to high quality with the most significant detractor due to their size relative to their
reference wetland type. NCWAM forms and ratings tables are provided in Appendix B.
Streams on the site were also delineated based on the Corps and State criteria. Four streams were
deemed to have connectivity and features of perennial or intermittent Waters of U.S. Multiple drainage
ditches were also evaluated, but it was concluded that they lacked the necessary connectivity and
regular flows defining them as streams. Documentation of these features is provided in Appendix B
Qurisdictional Determination), including the USACE and NCDWR stream assessment forms and photos.

Block 21— Type of Material Being Discharged and Amount of Each Type
No materials will be discharged in Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State for this project. Excavation
of jurisdictional wetlands has occurred and is further proposed for surface mining of soil materials for
use elsewhere onsite as landfill cover.
Block 22 — Surface Area in Acres of Wetlands or Other Waters Filled
Although no wetlands will be filled for this project, excavation of wetlands is occurring and is proposed
to continue. No jurisdictional streams are anticipated to be impacted by the project.
The surface area of wetlands to be excavated for the landfill expansion is listed in Table 4 for each
impact area. The table lists permanent impacts, which include excavation and removal. No temporary
impacts are proposed.
Figure A -4 in Appendix A depicts the wetlands that will be impacted by the proposed continued
landfill borrow area operations.

Block 23 — Description of Avoidance, Minimization, and Compensation
Avoidance and Minimization
In designating the footprint of the established and proposed borrow areas, jurisdictional waters were
avoided to the extent practicable in accordance with the Section 404(b) requirements, while providing
the needed waste disposal cover materials. Figure A -5 in Appendix A shows the proposed borrow
areas relative to the jurisdictional wetlands and streams. Access roads were selected based on having
the least impact to wetlands crossed. Borrow area limits generally follow the delineated wetlands.
Where the borrow area impacts the wetlands, the volume of soils is large compared to the area of
wetlands impacted. In other words, the smallest area of wetlands is impacted for the greatest soil yield.
Operation of the borrow area has already impacted approximately 1.01 acres of wetlands in the borrow
area plus approximately 0.62 acres of wetlands for clearing of the roadways for access. These impacts
were quantified by comparing the 1999 delineation wetland boundaries with the limits of disturbance
as depicted on the 2013 survey by the areas outside the treelines. These areas are shown on Figure A -3.
An alternatives analysis was conducted to evaluate the County's options for providing landfill cover
materials for the projected operational life of the landfill. Results of the alternatives analysis indicate
the operational needs of the landfill for cover materials must be met through a combination of on -site
borrow and off -site procurement. On -site borrow will be utilized to the extent practicable as the most
cost effective, environmentally sustainable, reliable method with the least impact on the City's
infrastructure.
Construction of a single large borrow pit greatly increases the depth and volume of materials which can
be mined rather than having a mosaic of smaller mining areas. The proposed impacts are the minimum
necessary to achieve the landfill borrow materials capacity needed to meet the County's needs as
required by NC Land Quality and Solid Waste regulations. Planned borrow areas are shown in Figure A-
5 establishing limits of borrow, with side slopes maximized to minimize surface area impacts and
maximize soil volume obtained. The County's Solid Waste facilities and property do not contain other
locations on site that would result in less wetland impact.

Fortunately, on this site, excavation right up to the edge of wetlands does not appear to be impacting
the hydrology of the existing wetlands. This is exemplified by the resilience of an isolated area of
wetland with excavation all around it due to the thick clay layer holding incident rainfall. Therefore,
impacts are limited to the areas where wetland surfaces are physically removed to lower elevations and
do not appear to result in indirect impacts.
Construction of the borrow area expansion will be subject to a NC sediment and erosion control plan,
which will protect downstream surface waters. Construction sequencing will be specified so that all
sediment and erosion control measures are in place prior to commencing borrow operations. Limits of
disturbance will be shown on the construction plans and enforced during construction. All soils will be
loaded and hauled directly to the operating landfill cell. Construction access into jurisdictional waters
that are not included in the footprint of the borrow area and for associated sediment ponds will not be
allowed.
Compensation
As compensation for the unavoidable wetland impacts associated with this project, Cumberland County
proposes to purchase mitigation credits from an accredited mitigation bank. On site mitigation or
preservation are not available options as continued operation of the landfill is anticipated to require
exhaustive use of limited site resources in the future, and the wetlands formed in the bottom of the
borrow pit would not be acceptable mitigation for lost wetlands due to differing type characteristics.
To account for the permanent loss of wetlands associated with the impacts incurred, the County will
purchase wetland credits from the Barra Farms Phase It Wetland Mitigation Bank at the current NCEEP
fee schedule for higher fee HUs. This mitigation bank is in Cumberland County and operates in the
03030005 hydrologic unit The current unit fee is $49,423 per acre of nonriparian wetland. Two acres
of wetland mitigation credits are reserved as confirmed in the letter in Appendix E.

Re: Ann Street Landfill 13 -016
Environmental Investigation Results
Cumberland County
Dear Rob:
Axiom Environmental, Inc. (Axiom) is pleased to provide you with summary results of our
environmental investigation at the Ann Street Landfill. The Ann Street Landfill is located east of Ann
Street and west of the Cape Fear River in Fayetteville, NC (Figure 1). Our results refer to Section 404
jurisdictional areas that remain from delineations conducted in 1999 and jurisdictional areas delineated in
2013. Included with this summary are the following:
• Figures 1 -2
• A brief characterization of site jurisdictional areas (streams and wetlands)
• A summary ofN.C. Wetland Assessment Method (NC WAM) ratings for both the 1999 and 2013
delineated areas
• A summary of the results of a federally protected species survey
• The following attachments
• Attachment A — completed U.S. Army Corps of Engineers ( USACE) Stream Quality
Assessment Worksheets and N.C. Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) Stream
Identification Forms for delineated streams
• Attachment B — completed USACE Wetland Determination Data Forms for wetlands
delineated in 1999 and 2013
• Attachment C — Photographs of site jurisdictional areas
• Attachment D — completed NC WAM Field Assessment Forms and Wetland Rating
Sheets for existing wetlands delineated in 1999 and 2013
• Attachment E — Preliminary JD documentation
Field Work
Axiom biologists visited the site on August 28 and 29 and September 5. During this field work, we
delineated Section 404 jurisdictional areas within the requested areas, completed current data forms for
remaining jurisdictional areas delineated in 1999, coordinated with a surveyor to prepare for the creation

of a plat of delineated features, and conducted a federally protected species investigation It is
noteworthy that the precipitation total within three months prior to the field visit was above normal, and
many wetland areas were found to be characterized by standing water Site soils have enough clay
content to allow standing water to be found in many of these wetlands, including some wetlands adjacent
to the active borrow areas on the east side of the site
Site Jurisdictional Streams and Wetlands
Site jurisdictional areas (streams and wetlands) are depicted on Figure 2 Jurisdictional areas depicted
with a green outline were delineated in 1999 The designations for these nine areas are Wetlands 7, A-
AA, B -BB, E -G, H -I, J -K, L, P -R, and S Eight jurisdictional wetlands delineated in 2013 are depicted
by pink boundaries and pink "swamp" hatching The designations for these nine areas are Wetlands WH,
WI, WJ, WK, WW, WX, WY, and WZ Two jurisdictional streams delineated in 2013 are depicted by
blue boundaries The designations for these streams are Streams 1 and 2
Three changes were found in the 1999 delineation
1 Wetland L no longer meets the criteria of ajurisdictional wetland Of the three criteria required
(plants, soils, and hydrology), the site was lacking both soils and hydrology indicators A
USACE wetland determination data form documenting the current condition of this wetland is
included in Attachment B
2 Wetland B -BB is now the headwaters of Stream 2
3 The following 1999 wetlands have been impacted by the soil borrow operation east of the
landfill
a Wetland 7 has been removed
b Wetland E -G hag been subdivided into a north, central, and south section
c The northern two -thirds and southern tip of Wetland H -I has been removed
d Wetland J -K has been subdivided into a north and a south section
Streams
Two intermittent streams occur within site boundaries Stream 1 and Stream 2 Stream 1 appears to
receive flow from a stormwater basin on the west side of the landfill road, a small adjacent wetland, and
from groundwater seepage Strum 2 forms below a headwater wetland on the outer floodplain wall of
the Cape Fear River and appears to receive flow from the wetland and groundwater seepage The
following table provides information on these streams

Wetlands
The site contains 18 wetlands based on separation by excavation and/or NC WAM wetland type
Wetlands WI, IK, and WW are considered non- ripanan (not associated with a stream), while the rest are
considered riparian Wetland EfG is now divided into three parts due to excavations Wetland E -G
North, Wetland E -G Central, and Wetland E -G South Wetland J -K is now divided into two parts due to
excavations Wetland J -K North and Wetland J -K South Wetland WI is separated into two NC WAM
assessment areas, one dominated by woody vegetation (Wetland WI Forested) and one dominated by
herbaceous vegetation (Wetland WI Herbs) Wetland WI may be considered isolated by the USACE and
therefore not subject to Section 404 Jurisdiction However, the NCDWR may assert jurisdiction over
isolated wetland areas

American Alligator
USFWS optimal survey window: year round, only warm days in winter
Habitat description In North Carolina, alligators have been recorded in nearly every coastal county,
and many inland counties to the fall line The alligator is found in streams, rivers, ponds,
lakes, canals, swamps, and coastal marshes Adults are highly tolerant of salt water, but the
young are more sensitive, with salinities greater than 5 parts per thousand considered
harmful The American alligator remains on the list due to its similarity of appearance with
the Endangered American crocodile

Axiom Environmental, Inc
Mr R V. Hopper III, P E
September 18, 2013
Page 5
Biological Conclusion No Effect Suitable habitat for the American alligator does not occur within
the site A review of NCNHP records on September 16, 2013 indicates one historical
American alligator occurrence within 1 0 mile of the site, approximately 10 mile north on
the Cape Fear River. No anticipated activities on the site will impact the Cape Fear River or
its banks
Red - cockaded Woodpecker
USFWS optimal survey window year round; November to early March
Habitat description The red - cockaded woodpecker (RCW) typically occupies open, mature stands
of southern pines, particularly longleaf pine, for foraging and nesting /roosting habitat. The
RCW excavates cavities for nesting and roosting in living pine trees, aged 60 years or older,
and which are contiguous with pine stands at least 30 years of age to provide foraging
habitat. The foraging range of the RCW is normally no more than 0 5 mile.
Biological Conclusion- No Effect. Suitable habitat for RCW does not occur within the site, where
the few large pines are scattered within mature hardwood forest No evidence of RCW was
observed during site visits A review of NCN14P records on September 16, 2013 indicates
no known RCW occurrences within 1 0 mile of the project area.
Saint Francis' Satyr
USFWS recommended survey window May 5 -June 6 and July 26- August 21
Habitat Description. The Saint Francis' satyr butterfly is only known from the Sandhills of North
Carolina, although it historic range may have been much larger. This butterfly is known to
inhabit wide, wet meadows dominated by sedges and other wetland graminoids. These
wetlands are often relicts of beaver activity and are boggy areas that are acidic and
ephemeral. These sites must be continually maintained to persist as open areas The larval
host of the Saint Francis' satyr is thought to be grasses, sedges, and rushes
Biological Conclusion: No Effect Suitable habitat for Saint Francis satyr does not occur within the
site A review of NCNHP records on September 16, 2013 indicates no known Saint Francis'
satyr occurrences within 1.0 mile of the project area

American Chaffseed
USFWS optimal survey window May- August (1 to 2 months after a fire)
Habitat Description American chaffseed typically occurs in habitats described as open, moist to dry
Mesic Pine Flatwoods, and longleaf pine flatlands, Pine Savannas, Pine /Oak Scrub Sandhills,
Sandhill Seeps, and other open grass /sedge- dominated communities. This herb also occurs
in other ecotonal areas between peaty wetlands and xeric sandy soils and on the upper
ecotones of, or sites close to, Streamhead Pocosins. The species prefers sandy peat or sandy
loam, acidic seasonally moist to dry soils in sunny or partly sunny areas subject to frequent
fires in the growing season. The plant is dependent on factors such as fire, frequent mowing,
or fluctuating water tables to maintain its required open to partly open habitat Most extant
populations, and all of the most vigorous populations are in areas subject to frequent fire.
This species is also found on road cuts and power line right -of -ways that experience frequent
mowing or clearing Soil series that this species is found on include Blaney, Candor, Gilead,
Fuquay, Lakeland, and Vaucluse
Biological Conclusion. No Effect Suitable habitat for American chaffseed does not occur within
the site The site is not subject to fire, and the physical soil properties are not present This
species was not observed during site visits A review of NCNHP records on September 16,
2013 indicates no known American chaffseed occurrences within 10 mile of the study area
Michaux's sumac
USFWS optimal survey window May- October
Habitat Description: Michaux's sumac, endemic to the inner Coastal Plaits and lower Piedmont,
grows in sandy or rocky, open, upland woods on acidic or circumneutral, well - dramed sands
or sandy loam soils with low cation exchange capacities The species is also found on sandy
or submesic loamy swales and depressions in the fall line Sandhills region as well as in
openings along the rims of Carolina bays, maintained railroad, roadside, and utility right -of-
ways, areas where forest canopies have been opened up by blowdowns and/or storm damage,
small wildlife food plots, abandoned building sites, under sparse to moderately dense pine or
pine/bardwood canopies, and in and along edges of other artificially maintained clearings
undergoing natural succession. In the central Piedmont, it occurs on clayey soils derived
from mafic rocks The plant is shade intolerant; therefore, grows best where disturbance
(e g., mowing, clearing, grazing, or periodic fire) maintains an open habitat.
Biological Conclusion. No Effect Suitable habitat for Michaux's sumac occurs along woodland

edges along roads Surveys performed in areas of suitable habitat during the survey window
found no evidence of this species A review of NCNHP records on September 16, 2013
- indicates no known Michaux's sumac occurrences within 1 0 mile of the site
Pondberry
USFWS optimal survey window February- October
Habitat Description Pondberry occurs in seasonally flooded wetlands, sandy sinks, pond margins,
and swampy depressions In the Coastal Plain of the Carolinas, this deciduous, aromatic
shrub occurs at the margins of limestone sinks and ponds and in undrained, shallow
depressions in longleaf pine and pond pine forests. Known populations in North Carolina
occur in the Small Depression Pocosin natural community, where suitable habitat is
characterized by sandy soils that contain high peat content in the subsurface and a prevalence
of shrubs due to historically frequent or intense fires It generally grows in somewhat shaded
areas, but can tolerate full sun.
Biological Conclusion. No Effect Suitable habitat for pondberry does not occur in the site. No
individuals of this species were observed during site visits A review of NCNHP records on
September 16, 2013 indicates no known pondberry occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study
area
Rough- leaved Loosestrife
USFWS optimal survey window: Mid -May to June
Habitat Description Rough- leaved loosestrife, endemic to the Coastal, Plain and Sandhills ofNorth
and South Carolina, generally occurs in the ecotones or edges between longleaf pine uplands
and pond pine pocosins in dense shrub and vine growth on moist to seasonally saturated
sands and on shallow organic soils overlaying sand (spodosolic soils) Occurrences are
found in such disturbed habitats as roadside depressions, maintained power and utility line
right -of -ways, firebreaks, and trails The species prefers full sunlight, is shade intolerant,
and requires areas of disturbance (e.g , clearing, mowing, periodic burning) where the
overstory is minimal It can, however, persist vegetatively for many years in overgrown,
fire- suppressed areas. Blaney, Gilead, Johnston, Kalmia, Leon, Mandarin, Murville,
Torhunta, and Vaucluse are some of the soil series, that the plant occurs on
Biological Conclusion No Effect. Suitable habitat for rough- leaved loosestrife does not occur in
the site. No individuals of this species were observed during site visits A review of

Axiom Environmental, Inc
Mr. R.V. Hopper III, P E
September 18, 2013

NCNHP records on September 16, 2013 indicates no known rough - leaved loosestrife
occurrences within 1.0 mile of the site
Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act
Habitat for bald eagle primarily consists of mature forest in proximity to large bodies of open
water for foraging. Large, dominant trees are utilized for nesting sites, typically within 1.0 mile
of open water Suitable habitat for bald eagle does not exist in the study area. A desktop GIS
assessment of the site, as well as the area within a 1 13 -mile radius (1.0 mile plus 660 feet) of the
project limits was performed on September 16, 2013 The Cape Fear River and trees along the
shoreline provide suitable habitat for the bald eagle; however, it is not anticipated that landfill
activities will impact either of these resources

Cumberland County Landfill
Borrow Materials Alternatives Analysis
Proposed Action
Cumberland County proposes to expand its borrow area on the northeast side of the 355 -acre municipal
solid waste landfill site owned by the County in northeast Fayetteville.
Purpose and Need for Project
The purpose of this project is to address Cumberland County's solid waste disposal facility soil needs for
the next 20 years.
Cumberland County (County) currently operates a Municipal Solid Waste Landfill ( MSWLF) and a
Construction and Demolition Debris Landfill (C &DLF) at the Ann Street Landfill, which is located in
northeast Fayetteville adjacent to the Cape Fear River. The existing MSWLF is expected to reach capacity in
approximately 15 years, and the existing C &DLF is expected to reach capacity in approximately 20 years.
The landfill units serve as an environmentally safe and cost - effective means of waste disposal for the
County's municipal partners along with the private hauler community that picks up and delivers waste to
the landfill. Landfill operations require a significant amount of soil material to construct the landfill base
liner system, maintain daily landfill operations, and close the landfill once the facility has reached capacity.
The borrow materials required to continue landfilling as already permitted at the Ann Street landfill for the
next 20 years is estimated at 1.1 million cubic yards (CY), as shown in Table 1. This estimate is based on
the usage of operational materials over recent years measured using annual aerial topographic survey and
the estimated materials required for landfill construction and landfill closure based on the facility and
operational plans within the County landfill permit.
Table 1. Borrow Materials Required for Ann Street Landfill
Based on this estimate, assuming an average mining depth of 20 feet, an area continuously spanning 41
acres (or three times the size of the existing borrow area) will be required to provide all borrow materials
for the projected life of the landfill. The County needs a solution that will enable its Solid Waste Department
continue operating the currently permitted facility and meet its objective to "provide for efficient use of the
sanitary landfill and to further the County's efforts in developing future solid waste disposal programs

which will conserve natural resources, reduce the volume, and dispose of non - recoverable wastes in an
environmentally sound manner" for the next 20 years. This borrow expansion will allow the County to
operate the existing landfill to capacity, providing the County with ample time to efficiently and effectively
manage solid waste while planning for the future development.
Alternatives Analysis
This document describes alternatives to the proposed action and evaluates whether they would meet the
stated purpose and need for the project. Five alternatives were identified:
- Expand existing borrow area at existing landfill site
- Expand borrow area to another location at the existing landfill site
- Construct new borrow area on another site and transport borrow from other sources
- Utilize alternative cover materials
- No Action Alternative
Expand Borrow Area in Other Locations at Existing Landfill Site
The County's Ann Street facility is approximately 355 acres. An overall site plan is depicted in Figure A -5 in
Appendix A to the Supplemental Information. The existing borrow area is along the east side of the
property. Areas to the southeast and south remain undeveloped and present potential opportunities for
borrow. Other areas on the site are maintained as active or closed landfill units, or utilized for maintenance
facilities, or in the case of the southwest area, have potentially contaminated groundwater.

• Alternatives Analysis
Expansion of Existing Borrow Area
The existing borrow area is surrounded by jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. on all sides. To the east, the
landfill abuts the Cape Fear River, with a maintained buffer of at least 200 feet from the borrow area to the
river. To the south and north, jurisdictional stream channels run west to east. To the west, a linear swath
of hardwood flat wetlands are between the landfill dirt road and the borrow area. While there is no room
to expand to the existing borrow area south, there is additional borrow available along the north
boundaries that does not intersect wetlands. Approximately 566,000 CY could be mined from these areas
without impacting jurisdictional waters. Another approximately 114,000 CY could be obtained by surface
mining the remaining area of wetland H -I (see Figur6 A -4 in Appendix A to the Supplemental Information
for wetland location) with expected high quality materials suitable for the intended use. The impacted area
is small relative to the amount of borrow made accessible.
New Borrow Area Adjatent to Existing Borrow Area (Southeast)
Adjacent to and south of the existing borrow pit is an area with the same topographic landscape position as
the existing borrow area. It occupies a tertiary terrace of the Cape Fear River and is separated from the
existing borrow pit by an entrenched jurisdictional stream channel. There are hardwood flat wetlands on
the west side of this area, along the dirt road, and a smaller linear patch of depressional wetlands on the
second terrace. Outside of these wetlands, with a buffer of 25 feet from the wetland boundaries, this
prospective 3 -acre borrow area could potentially provide up to 139,000 CY of cover materials at a depth of
20 feet.
New Borrow Area along landfill Southern Property Boundary
The only other remaining viable, partially undeveloped area on the property lies along the southern border
and potentially offers a substantial volume of usable soil materials. A long (3,750 feet by 650 feet) area
contains a maintenance building, debris handling area, and stormwater pond, but is otherwise forested. A
stream bisects the area and wetlands occupy about 2.5 acres. Outside of these features, with a buffer of 25
feet from the wetland boundaries, this area presents 6.2 acres of land with a volume of available soils on
the order of 261,000 CY (assuming a depth of 20 feet of suitable materials).
Utilizing the available land onsite in all three of these areas for borrow is the most economical and reliable
sustained source for borrow materials to support the landfill operational objectives. On -site borrow could
potentially yield 1,080,000 CY of materials. The remaining soil materials will need to be obtained off -site
through additional property acquisition or private contractor at greater expense and require additional
planning to maintain a reliable source of cover.
New Borrow Area on Another Site
The County owns no other available land offsite within close proximity to the landfill. The County would
need to purchase additional property to generate additional soil material. Given the high density
development surrounding the landfill, any sizeable tract of land that would be available would require a
significant haul distance. 1-lauling incurs fuel costs, requires infrastructure in place, impacts traffic, and
creates air pollution. In addition, borrow from any sizeable tract in the area would most likely impact
wetlands and /or streams.
The two sizeable properties adjacent to the Ann Street Landfill, on the same side of the Cape Fear River, are
owned by the City of Fayetteville. The parcel to the north is a City-owned materials storage yard, and to the
south is the City's water treatment plant. Neither of these sites is appropriate for a borrow area, as they are
already being used for other purposes.
Smith

• Alternatives Analysis
Import Soil Materials from Other Sources
The County currently accepts clean soil materials from outside contractors free of charge and stockpiles
these materials for use as operational cover. However, excess cut materials from construction projects are
neither consistent nor reliable, nor sufficient to supply the landfill's need. Importing soil materials from
other sources will not meet the purpose and need for this project.
Alternative Cover Materials
Cover material requirements involve a large quantity of soils over many years on a daily basis subject to
variable fluctuations in waste collection rates. Regulation (15A NCAC 1313.1626) requires a minimum
depth of 0.5 feet of cover soils over all exposed waste or an approved alternative cover material for daily
cover and 0.5 feet of soil cover only on a weekly basis or at more frequent intervals if necessary, to control
disease vectors, fires, odors, blowing litter, and scavenging.
To minimize the operational soil needs, the County has been using foam as an alternative daily cover for
daily operations since 2010. Without the alternative daily cover, the County would be required to place 6
inches of cover soil over the exposed waste on a daily basis. Instead, a foam covering is utilized on a daily
basis and soils are utilized only once weekly at an application of 6 inches deep. This results in significant
soil savings over the life of the facility. However, using alternative cover materials alone is not feasible and
will not meet the purpose and need for this project.
No Action Alternative
If the borrow area expansion is not constructed, Cumberland County will not be able to cost - effectively
manage the disposal of solid waste in order to achieve its stated mission to conserve natural resources,
reduce the volume, and dispose of non - recoverable wastes in an environmentally sound manner. The
landfill will run out of soil materials and haul in soils at a higher cost to the citizens and reduced
operational reliability. The No Action alternative also represents a loss of responsible control by the County
over management of its waste. This is not a practicable or feasible alternative.
The No Action alternative would not address the purpose and need for the project

Re Ann Street I sndf lt- Cumberland County, NTf
Dear Mr. Hopper.
This letter is to inform you that a list of all federally - protected endangered and threatened species
with known occurrences in North Carolina is now available on the U S Fish and Wildlife
Service's (Service) web page at http. / /www fws gov /raleigli. Therefore, if you have projects that
occur within the Raleigh Field Office's area of responsibility (see attached county list), you no
longer need to contact the Raleigh Field Office for a list of federally- protected species.
Our web page contains a complete and frequently updated list of all endangered and threatened
species protected by the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16
U.S C. 1531 et seq.)(Act), and a list of federal species of concerns that are known to occur in
each county in North Carolina.
Section 7 of the Act requires that all federal agencies (or their designated non- federal
representative), in consultation with the Service, insure that any action federally authorized,
funded, or carried out by such agencies is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any
federally - listed endangered or threatened species. A biological assessment or evaluation may be
prepared to fulfill that requirement and in deteimining whether additional consultation with the
Service is necessary. In addition to the federally - protected species list, information on the
species' life histoiies and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or
evaluation and can be found on our web page at http://www.fws.gov/ialeigh Please check the
web site often for updated information or changes
the term "federal species of concern" ieters to those species which the Service believes might be in need of
concentrated conservation actions Federal species of coiwei n receive no legal protection and their designation does
not necessarily unply that the spei.ies will eventually be proposed for irstuig as a federally endangered or threatened
species However, we recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid or minimize adverse impacts to
federal species of concern

If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally- listed species known to be
present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to
adversely affect those species As such, we recommend that surveys be conducted to determine
the species' presence or absence within the project area The use of North Carolina Natural
Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys
If you determine that the proposed action may affect (i.e., likely to adversely affect or not likely
to adversely affect) a federally - protected species, you should notify this office with your
determination, the results of your surveys, survey methodologies, and an analysis of the effects
of the action on listed species, including consideration of direct, indirect, and cumulative effects,
before conducting any activities that might affect the species. If you determine that the proposed
action will have no effect (i.e , no beneficial or adverse, direct or indirect effect) on federally
listed species, then you are not required to contact our office for concurrence (unless an
Environmental Impact Statement is prepared). However, you should maintain a complete record
of the assessment, including steps leading to your determination of effect, the qualified personnel
conducting the assessment, habitat conditions, site photographs, and any other related articles.
With regard to the above - referenced project, we offer the following remarks. Our continents are
submitted pursuant to, and in accordance with, provisions of the Endangered Species Act.
Based on the information provided and other information available, it appears that the proposed
action is not likely to adversely affect any federally- listed endangered or threatened species, their
formally designated critical habitat, or species currently proposed for listing under the Act at
these sites. We believe that the requirements of section 7(a)(2) of the Act have been satisfied for
your project. Please remember that obligations under section 7 consultation must be
reconsidered if. (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect
listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered; (2) this action is
subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review; or, (3) a new species
is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by the identified action.
However, the Service is concerned about the potential impacts the proposed action might have
on aquatic species. Aquatic resources are highly susceptible to sedimentation. Therefore, we
recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid adverse impacts to aquatic species,
including implementing directional boring methods and stringent sediment and erosion control
measures. An erosion and sedimentation control plan should be submitted to and approved by
the North Carolina Division of Land Resources, Land Quality Section prior to construction.
Erosion and sedimentation controls should be installed and maintained between the construction
site and any nearby down - gradient surface waters. In addition, we recommend maintaining
natural, vegetated buffers on all streams and creeks adjacent to the project site
The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission has developed a Guidance Memorandum (a
copy can be found on our website at (http-Hwww.fws.gov /sleigh) to address and mitigate
secondary and cumulative impacts to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife resources and water quality
We recommend that you consider this document in the development of your projects and in
completing an initiation package for consultation (if necessary)

We hope you find our web page useful and infoimative and that following the process described
above will reduce the time required, and eliminate the need, for general correspondence for
species' lists If you have any questions or comments, please contact John Ellis of this office at

Re: Reservation of Compensatory Non - Riparian Wetland Mitigation Credits
Project: Ann Street Landfill Borrow Area Expansion
This document confirms that Cumberland County (Applicant) has reserved for purchase up to
2 0 non - riparian wetland mitigation credits from the Barra Farms Phase II Wetland Mitigation
Bank
Restoration Systems (RS) attests to the fact that 2.0 non - riparian wetland credits are currently
available for immediate transfer from its Official Bank Credit Ledger to Applicant and that as of
this date RS has 2 0 non - riparian wetland credits into "no- sale " - reservation status under the
name of the project referenced on this document (Project)
These 2 non - riparian wetland credits will remain in reservation status until payment in full is
received from the Applicant, resulting in the issuance of a Credit Transfer Certificate by RS
acknowledging that the applicant has fully secured credits from the bank and RS has accepted
full responsibility for the mitigation obligation requiring the credits If RS does not receive
payment in full for the Mitigation Credits within thirty (30) prior to the initiation of Project
construction, RS has the right to terminate this Reservation Letter, in which case RS will have no
further obligation to provide mitigation credits to the Applicant
