Purpose and Need for the Project
The purpose of this project is to provide medium density residential development to meet the housing
demand in the Town of Apex near the intersection of US Highway 64 and NC 55. The Oak Pointe
property is located just northeast this intersection.
Alternatives Analysis
Both off-site and on-site alternatives for the proposed project have been evaluated. Since Lennar
purchased the Oak Pointe property from K. Hovnanian, Homes in April 2016 after site planning and
multiple government approvals had been obtained, it should be noted that Lennar is not afforded the
opportunity to do major plan amendments without significant financial losses.
On-site Alternatives
Multiple on-site design alternatives were considered when evaluating and developing the Oak Pointe
project. These alternatives include:
• No Build Alternative
• Proposed Project
• Relocation of Pointe Crossing
• Alternative Greenway Locations
• No Fill for Lots
No Build Alternative: A no build alternative is here considered to be one where no development
occurs on the Oak Pointe property. No neighborhood infrastructure would be constructed and no
residential lots would be established on the property. While this would avoid all impacts to
jurisdictional features, it does not meet the purpose and need of the project to supply medium
density residential development.
Proposed Project: The proposed Oak Pointe development allows the applicant to make the
residential development financially viable and stay within the zoning guidelines as defined in the
Town of Apex UDO. The design team believes that the neighborhood design presented in this
permit application represents the most practicable and least environmentally damaging alternative
while still achieving the applicant's purpose and need.
Proposed wetland and stream impacts resulting from road construction are necessary to allow
suitable access to all lots. The design of the development has placed the road corridors so that all
lots are accessible, traffic flow is optimized, and impacts to jurisdictional features are minimized
as much as practicable.
The proposed greenway that crosses the property will provide connection to the existing Town of
Apex greenway system. During the preliminary design process for this property, the location of
this greenway was originally located adjacent to the existing Town of Apex sewer easement
throughout the property. The proposed greenway corridor presented with this document avoids
previously proposed impacts and satisfies the needs of the applicant and the Town of Apex.

The proposed sewer easement located at the southern end of the property is necessary to provide a
connection between the residential lots in Oak Pointe and the existing Town of Apex sewer
system. The easement crosses Town of Apex property and the Town has approved this
connection.
Removal of large trees will be avoided and planting of native species during construction will be
done as much as practicable. Best management practices will be used for all sediment and
erosion control before, during, and after construction.
Relocation of Pointe Crossing: The Pointe Crossing road crossing (Impact Area C2) was
evaluated to determine if this road could be moved to a different location on the property in order
to avoid/minimize wetland and stream impacts. In the proposed site plan, this road crossing is
located perpendicular to the stream channel and in the narrowest portion of the floodplain of the
tributary to Beaver Creek. Four alternatives were considered for this crossing:
• Omission of this crossing was considered. However, if a traffic connection between the
northern and southern portions of the development was not constructed, traffic would not
be able to flow through the development and access to each portion of Oak Pointe would
be limited. It is also a Town of Apex requirement that two access points be provided into
a residential development for emergency access.
• Relocation of this crossing upstream of the proposed location would minimize the
wetland impacts associated with this crossing. However, moving the crossing closer to
the adjacent upstream property would require a no rise situation on the flood study to
avoid hydrologic trespass during high flow events. The attached Figure 2 is a
preliminary drawing provided by the design engineer. This figure shows the hydrologic
trespass that would occur if the road crossing were to be located further upstream. In
addition, there is not adequate spacing for the road to cross the stream at a perpendicular
angle and then be able to make a safe turn toward the southern portion of the property.
This road configuration would also result in the loss of planned residential lots, which
diminishes the financial viability of the project.
• Relocation of this crossing downstream was also considered. However, wetlands are
present throughout this area, so it is not possible to significantly minimize wetland
impacts by constructing the crossing closer to the western boundary. A road corridor in
this area would likely also result in the loss of residential lots on both sides of the stream
crossing.
• Construction of a bridge was also considered to avoid hydrologic trespass, loss of lots,
and road configuration issues. However, the bridge option would add approximately
$500,000 to the cost of the stream crossing, which would prevent the project from being
financially viable.
Alternative Greenway Locations: During the planning process, several locations for the Town
of Apex Greenway corridor across the property were considered. These alternatives include:
• The proposed location of the greenway as presented with this document represents the
corridor that was agreed upon by the Town of Apex, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
and the applicant during a meeting on July 27, 2016. Wetland and stream impacts are

minimized to the greatest extent practicable using this alternative. It was determined that
a pedestrian bridge over the stream channel near Impact Area B is a practicable
alternative to the placement of a culvert in the stream channel.
• Co -location of the greenway with the existing Town of Apex sewer easement was
originally proposed. Construction of the greenway in this location would have
significantly increased wetland impacts, especially near the proposed Pointe Crossing
road corridor. Culverts were to be used on stream crossings, which increased impacts.
• Relocation of only portions of the greenway away from the existing sewer easement was
considered. This alternative was presented in the original application for this project.
This alternative did result in decreased wetland impacts, but it was determined that the
greenway corridor could cross the property and avoid all impacts.
No Fill for Lots: The preferred alternative proposes impacts to jurisdictional wetlands at Impact
Areas Cl and D. During the planning process, the project was evaluated to determine if the
establishment of those lots was necessary to make the project feasible. Based on the required
form of residential construction (final floor elevations) and the sizes of these lots, a minimal
amount of grading and fill in these wetlands is required to fit the type of product that meets local
and state building code requirements to the lot. If these four lots were not built upon based on the
engineering constraints and applicable code requirements, this alternative would represent an
economic loss of $1,014,000. Therefore, this alternative is not financially feasible.
Off-site Alternatives
Because of the growth of Wake County and the Town of Apex, and the non-residential retail, schools,
parks and surrounding infrastructure development in the western Wake County area over the past several
years, housing demands in the Town of Apex are exceptionally strong. In an effort to meet the market
demand, and at the same time optimize avoidance of urban sprawl, minimal vehicular travel times, and
proximity to ancillary market services (schools, retail), project alternatives were evaluated within a 3 -mile
radius of the US Highway 64 W/I-540 interchange in western Apex.
Off-site alternatives within the jurisdiction of the Town of Apex and in proximity to the US 64/NC 55
intersection were evaluated to meet the purpose and need for the project. Alternatives meeting the
purpose and need for the project within a 3 -mile radius proximity to the US Highway 64 W/I-540
interchange in western Apex were evaluated by Spangler Environmental, Inc. The following criteria were
used for identification of alternative project locations:
• Minimum 40 contiguous acres (individual parcels less than 3 acres were excluded)
• Medium density development allowable per Town of Apex zoning as of July 20, 2016
• Sites not currently developed or under development per Town of Apex on-line Interactive
Development Map (July 20, 2016)
Based on these criteria, seven off-site alternatives were identified and compared with the preferred
alternative. An evaluation of comparative suitability, considering the following criteria was undertaken
on each alternative site:

• Potential impact to jurisdictional resources (indicated by stream feet/acre taken from Wake Co.
GIS -July 27-29, 2016, and ground-truth/window-survey for verification when possible by
Spangler Environmental, Inc., August 2-4, 2016),
• Potential secondary/cumulative impact (indicated by need for significant off-site utility
construction as indicated by utility mapping or available plans found on the Town of Apex on-
line Interactive Development Map -August 2, 2016, and/or unsuitable topography requiring
major grading/hauling as indicated by window -survey, and/or major off-site road improvements
as indicated by Town of Apex on-line Interactive Development Map -August 2, 2016, and/or
noise mitigation for residents due to a high ratio of highway frontage vs. acreage as indicated by
Town of Apex on-line Interactive Development Map -August 2, 2016), and
• Practical availability for acquisition (as determined by whether the site has received site plan
approval or is in plan approval process as a ,precursor to development, as an indicator of
unavailability due to developeribuilder in competition with applicant, per Town of Apex on-line
Interactive Development Map -August 4, 2016).
The following table summarizes the evaluation of the alternatives shown on Figure 1. Based on these
relative data, the Oak Pointe project site is the Preferred Alternative.

Stormwater Features
Locations of all stormwater features have been added to the attached plans, as requested.
Avoidance and Minimization
Avoidance and minimization of impacts has been achieved through the selection of alternatives and the
design of the project as previously presented. In response'to the July 13, 2016 comments, further
information regarding specific avoidance and minimization measures is provided below.
Lot Fill at Impact Areas C1 and D
Lot fill at impact areas Cl and D is necessary to make those lots buildable. Loss of those lots would
result in the loss of marketable assets. As previously stated in the alternatives analysis above, the
required form of residential construction (final floor elevations) and the sizes of these lots necessitate a
minimal amount of grading and fill in these wetlands to fit the type of product that meets local and state
building code requirements to the lot. If these lots were not built upon based on the engineering
constraints and applicable code requirements, this alternative would represent an economic loss of
$1,014,000. Impacts necessary to make these lots buildable have been minimized as much as practicable.
Wetland area at Blue Point Path and Orange Oak Lane
Portions of the wetland area at Blue Point Path and Orange Oak Lane in the southern portion of the
project will have direct unavoidable impacts resulting from road construction and lot fill. This wetland is
currently downslope from a man-made pond and is hydrologically maintained by underground seepage

from that pond. Blue Pointe Path is proposed to be constructed on the upslope side of this wetland;
however, the potential for the loss of wetland function will be avoided through the installation of the
drainage pipe under Blue Pointe Path. This pipe will maintain the hydrologic connection between the
wetland and the upper portions of the watershed. The proposed drainage pipes under Orange Oak Lane
on the downslope side of the wetland will allow for the maintenance of the hydrologic connection to the
downstream waters, so this feature will not be isolated. No functional loss is anticipated in this wetland
area.
Town of Anex Greenwa
Lennar and the USACE met with the Town of Apex on July 27, 2016 to discuss the proposed route for the
Town of Apex greenway that crosses the property. A route for the greenway was agreed upon that
minimizes jurisdictional impacts. A portion of the greenway is now proposed to be located adjacent to
Red Pointe Drive in the northern portion of the property to avoid wetland impacts. A retaining wall will
also be used at this location to avoid wetland impacts associated with road fill. A stream crossing shown
on Exhibit B (132) is now proposed to include the use of a pedestrian bridge to avoid stream impacts.
Pointe Crossing Impacts
During the site planning process, consideration was given to moving the location of the Pointe Crossing
corridor upstream in order to further minimize the amount of jurisdictional impacts resulting from the
road crossing. However, moving the crossing closer to the adjacent upstream property would require a no
rise situation on the flood study to avoid hydrologic trespass during high flow events. In addition, there is
not adequate spacing for the road itself to cross the riparian buffers at a perpendicular angle and then be
able to make a safe turn toward the southern portion of the property. An alternative crossing location for
Pointe Crossing would also result in a loss of buildable lots on both sides of the stream.
Construction of a bridge was also considered to avoid hydrologic trespass, loss of lots, and road
configuration issues. However, the bridge option would add approximately $500,000 to the cost of the
stream crossing, which would prevent the project from being financially viable.
For these reasons, the proposed Pointe Crossing corridor location minimizes impacts to the greatest extent
possible.
Sewer Line Installation
Permanent impacts resulting from the installation of the sewer line at Impact Area F will be conversion
impacts only resulting from the creation of a maintenance corridor 20 ft. wide through this wetland. The
sewer line will be aerial and will not require open cutting.
Compensatory Mitigation
Lennar has determined that there are no private mitigation banks in the service area capable of providing
all required mitigation for this project. Therefore, Lennar will purchase available mitigation credits from
private mitigation banks and will satisfy the remainder of the necessary mitigation through the North
Carolina Division of Mitigation Services (NCDMS). The NCDMS acceptance letter and a Statement of
Mitigation Credit Availability from Restoration Systems, LLC are attached.

Functional assessments have been performed on all proposed impact areas on the property using NC
Stream Assessment Method (NCSAM) and NC Wetland Assessment Method (NCWAM) evaluations.
Proposed mitigation ratios are included in Table 2.
Flood Zones
FEMA Conditional Letters of Map Revision (CLOMR) are attached showing flood zone authority on the
property. A copy of these letters is attached.
The 100 -year floodzone has been added to the plans as requested.
Phase I ESA
In response to the comment received during the public comment period from Mr. Daniel B. Martin,
Lennar is providing the executive summary of the Phase I Environmental Site Assessment that was done
on the property in April 2016. That document is attached.
Response to NCWRC Comments
1. Stormwater structures have been added to the plans and use best management practices.
2. A bridge is proposed to be used at the greenway crossing near Impact Area B. All other stream
crossings are proposed to use culverts that will allow for aquatic life passage. Cross sections of
these crossings are provided with this document.
3. Removal of large trees will be avoided and planting of native species during construction will be
done as much as practicable.
4. Best management practices will be used for all sediment and erosion control before, during, and
after construction.
Response to NCDWR Comments
1. Site plans have been submitted to Sheri Montalvo at the email address provided in the NCDWR
Request for Additional Information Letter.
2. Cross section details for Impact Areas Bl, C1, and C2 are attached.
3. Typical culvert installation methods will be used at all stream crossings where culverts are
proposed. These methods will maintain the physical integrity of the streams above and below the
culvert. Construction sequences are provided with this document.
4. See Avoidance and Minimization section presented above.
5. See Phase I ESA section presented above.

COMMENT
This document provides the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA's) comment regarding a request for a CLOMR for the project described above This
document is not a final determination, it only provides our comment on the proposed protect in relation to the flood hazard information shown on the effective
National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) map We reviewed the submitted data and the data used to prepare the effective flood hazard information for your
community and determined that the proposed protect meets the minimum floodplain management criteria of the NFIP. Your community is responsible for approving
all floodplain development and for ensuring that all permits required by Federal or State/Commonwealth law have been received State/Commonwealth, county,
and community officials, based on their knowledge of local conditions and in the interest of safety, may set higher standards for construction in the Special Flood
Hazard Area (SFHA), the area subject to inundation by the base flood) If the State/Commonwealth, county, or community has adopted more restrictive or
comprehensive floodplain management criteria, these criteria take precedence over the minimum NFIP criteria.
This comment is based on the flood data presently available. If you have any questions about this document, please contact the FEMA Map Information eXchange (FMIX) loll
free at 1-877-336-2627 (1 -877 -FEMA MAP) or by letter addressed to the LOMC Clearinghouse, 847 South Pickett Street, Alexandria, VA 22304-4605 Additional Information

COMMUNITY INFORMATION
To determine the changes in flood hdrards Thal will be caused by the proposed project, we compared the hydraulic modeling reflecting the proposed project
(referred to as the proposed condition% model) to the hydraulic modeling used to prepare the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) (referred to as the effective
model) If the effective model does not provide enough detail to evaluate the effects of the proposed project, an existing conditions model must be
developed to provide this detail. This existing conditions model is then compared to the effective model and the proposed condition~ model to differentiate
the increases of decreases in flood hazard~ caused by more detailed modeling from the increases or decreases in flood hazards that will be caused by the
proposed project.
The table below shows the changes in the BFEs.

Increases due to the proposed project that exceed those permitted under Paragraphs (c)(10) or (d)(3) of Section 60 3 of the NFIP iegulations must adhere t
Section 65 12 of the NFIP regulations. With this request, your community has complied with all requirements of Paragraph 65 12(a) of the NFIP
regulations CompbdnLe with Paragraph 65 12(b) also is necessary before FEMA can issue a Letter of Map Revision when a community proposes to
permit encroachments into the effective floodplain/regulatory floodway that will cause BFE increases in excess of those permitted under Paragraph
60 3(d)(3)/60.3(c)(10)
NFIP regulations Subparagraph 60 3(b)(7) requires communities to ensure that the flood -carrying capacity within the altered or relocated portion of any
watercourse rs maintained This provision 1s incorporated into your community's existing floodplain management ordinances, therefore, responsibility for
maintenance of the altered or relocated watercourse, including any related appurtenances such as bridges, culverts, and other drainage structures, rests with
your community We may request that your community submit a descnption and schedulc of maintenance activities necessary to ensure this requirement
U S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) recommendations dated December 11, 2015 must be followed

1.0 Executive Summary
This report details the findings of a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment ("ESA") for a
property located along Old Jenks Road, Apex, Wake County, North Carolina. The subject
property includes seven mapped tax parcels (Wake County PINs 0733706935, 0733709908,
0732798712, 0732893803, 0733706412, 0733709307, 0732788583), located in Apex, North
Carolina. The property adjoins and is south of Old Jenks Road, approximately 1/3 mile east of
Highway 55. It is generally rectangular in shape, on a north/south lengthwise orientation. The
property totals approximately 58.2 acres. The current available deeds for the parcels that make
up the subject property are found in the Wake County Register of Deeds Book 15865 Page
1825, Book 6802 Page 285, Book 5730 Page 812, and Book 6802 Page 287. Deed information
for three of parcels which make up the subject property was not available through Wake County
GIS or the Wake County Tax Assessor's website.
The objective of this ESA was to identify recognized environmental conditions ("RECs") in
connection with the subject property.
Site reconnaissance was performed by SEI personnel on April 13 and April 19, 2016.
Reconnaissance resulted in the following observations:
The property is densely vegetated. An intermittent to perennial stream with intact relic
floodplain runs from the northeastern corner of the property to the soutwest corner of the
property, fonning the western property boundary of the southernmost tax parcel of the property.
A dammed pond exists on the east side of the southernmost parcel. Areas of wetlands exist
below the pond and in the floodplain of the stream throughout its length.
De minimis household trash and debris are found on the northern tract in the vicinity of the
historical modular home that is currently occupied on the property. Some discarded steel tanks
of unknown origin and approximately 250 to 500 gallons in size are discarded on the northern
tracts. These tanks appear to be consistent with prior findings by others, and were observed to
be in similar (if not the same) geographic positions as prior reports indicated. No staining of
soils or distressed vegetation was observed around these tanks, and they all appeared to be
empty (some with rusted holes. Prior reports suggest the owner of the property had imported
these tanks to the property prior to 2014 for the purpose of making grills or pig cookers. The
northern tract includes at least one hand -dug well and septic system drain fields. Several
dilapidated outbuildings and foundation structures are located on the northern tracts. These
observations do not constitue an REC for the purposes of this assessment.
At least two abandoned structures exist on the southern tract, one of which appears to be an old
dwelling. Access was not attempted to these structures. No evidence of heating oil tanks or
underground petroleum storage tanks was observed around these structures.
Under contract with SEI, Environmental Data Resources, Inc. ("EDR") of Milford, Connecticut
prepared an EDR Radius Map ("RM") for the subject property. SEI provided EDR with the
location of the subject property based on information provided to SEI by representatives of
Lennar Corporation. EDR analyzed federal, state, and tribal government environmental
databases and EDR proprietary records for information on sites or facilities with known or
expected environmental conditions within minimum search distances of the subject property, as
specified by ASTM E 1527-13.
The RM listed three individual sites that were not mapped due to missing or inadequate address
information (i.e., Orphan Summary). To the extent reasonably ascertainable, efforts were made
to determine the physical location of each non -mapped site, relative to the subject property;
however, the location of each non -mapped site was not practically reviewable as defined in
ASTM E 1527-13. Consequently, the potential for impact of all non -mapped sites to the
Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Report

presence of recognized environmental conditions on the subject property was not reasonably
ascertainable.
Analysis of the RM indicated that the subject property was not listed on the searched databases.
Records identified eighteen (18) mapped sites located within the minimum search as defined by
ASTM E 1527-13. None of these mapped sites (some of which were duplicative listings) is an
active regulatory incident --all have been closed out as rernediated (if necessary) by NC DEQ
according to file records cited in the RM. The corresponding documentation for these databases
is included in Attachment B.
The physical setting (i.e., location of drainage features and/or relative topographical position) of
each of the eighteen discrete minimum -distance locations listed in the RM were evaluated to
determine the potential for impact to the likelyi presence of recognized environmental
conditions on the subject property. Based on distance to the subject property, topographical
features, remediation efforts, and the type of contaminant known to have impacted these sites,
in our best professional judgment, the eighteen discrete mapped sites have no potential to
impact the subject property.
Site reconnaissance conducted by SEI personnel did not reveal the presence of hazardous
substances or petroleum products under conditions that indicate an existing release, past release
or material threat of a release in connection with past and current uses of the subject property.
As a result of these observations, no evidence was found of the presence or likely presence of
any hazardous substance or petroleum products on the property under conditions that indicate
an existing release, a past release, or a material threat of release of any hazardous substance or
petroleum products onto structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater, or surface
water of the property.
As a result of these observations and the findings of this assessment, no evidence suggests the
presence or likely presence of any hazardous substance or petroleum products on the property
under conditions that indicate an existing release, a past release, or a material threat of release
of any hazardous substance or petroleum products onto structures on the property or into the
ground, groundwater, or surface water of the property. Therefore, no RECs in association with
the subject property have been identified in this assessment.
2.0 Introduction
2.1 Purpose
The objective of this ESA is to identify, to the extent feasible, recognized environmental
conditions in connection with the subject property pursuant to the process described in ASTM
Standard E 1527-13 -- Standard Practice for Environmental Site Assessments: Phase I
Environmental Site Assessment Process. This involved evaluating the property for
contaminants within the scope of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation,
and Liability Act (CERCLA) and for petroleum products and other environmental conditions.
2.2 Scope -of -Services
Spangler Environmental, Inc. has (SEI) completed this ESA in accordance with methodology
described in ASTM E 1527-13. Achieving assessment objectives entailed the following:
Identifying historic uses of the property from the present to the property's first developed
use, or 1940, whichever is earlier.
Reviewing and interpreting reasonably ascertainable and practically reviewable federal,
state, and local public records for the subject property and immediate vicinity.
Performing visual inspection and walk-through of the subject property and immediate
vicinity, including photographic documentation.
