Re: Riparian Buffer Authorization Request
Hasse Avenue Extension
Wake County, North Carolina
CRS -16000
Dear Ms. Higgins:
On behalf of the Town of Apex, McAdams is submitting a Riparian Buffer
Authorization Request for buffer impacts associated with the Hasse Avenue
Extension project in Apex, North Carolina. The project area is within the Cape
Fear River Basin, and within the Jordan Lake Watershed (HUC
030300020609). The Town of Apex is the delegated authority to implement
buffer rules for the project area. However, because the Town is the applicant
for this project, we are submitting our buffer authorization application to NC
DWR for review and approval. The purpose of the Hasse Avenue Extension is
to construct a secondary arterial roadway alignment from the existing
Sweetwater Residential Subdivision to Olive Chapel Road that will provide
continuous vehicular traffic from U.S. Highway 64 to Olive Chapel Road in the
western section of Wake County, North Carolina, which is experiencing
increased traffic demands. Please find enclosed for your review the following

PROJECT HISTORY & EXISTING CONDITIONS:
The project area for the proposed Hasse Avenue extends from an existing
residential subdivision (Sweetwater Residential Subdivision) located to the
north, crosses Reedy Branch, enters the northwestern portion of the proposed
Linden development, and extends southwest beyond the proposed Linden
development to Olive Chapel Road. Future extension of Hasse Avenue is
included on the Town of Apex Transportation Plan Thoroughfare and Collector
Street Plan; therefore, the future alignment crosses the property located at 2505
Olive Chapel Road (Wake County PIN # 0722411102) and intersects with
Olive Chapel Road.
There are three stream features (Stream Feature A [Reedy Branch], Stream
Feature B1, and Stream Feature AA) and two wetland features (Wetland D and
Wetland B) along the proposed Hasse Avenue alignment. See attached Figure
3 (Existing Conditions) for the location of these features. Sections of Hasse
Avenue located within the proposed Linden Subdivision have already received
a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (see attached USACE Action Id.
SAW -2016-01993; issued November 23, 2016). A Preliminary Jurisdictional
Determination (PJD) has been requested for the future alignment of Hasse
Avenue where it crosses the property located at 2505 Olive Chapel Road (Wake
County PIN # 0722411102).
There is a 100 -year floodplain and floodway associated with Reedy Branch (NC
FIRM Map 3720072200J; effective date May 2, 2006). A Conditional Letter of
Map Revision (CLOMR) was submitted to the Town of Apex and the to the
state on May 3, 2017. Based on hydrologic and hydraulic analyses performed
in accordance with standard engineering practice, the proposed encroachment
will not result in any increase in flood levels within the community during the
occurrence of the base flood discharge, and the requirements set forth in the
Town of Apex regulations will be met. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) issued a letter on September 16, 2016 (see attached) stating 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 Endangered Species Act. Therefore, the
USFWS believes the requirements under Section 7 of the Endangered Species
Act are fulfilled. The North Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural
Resources — State Historic Preservation Office (NC SHPO) issued a letter on
April 6, 2017 (see attached) stating that SHPO is aware of no historic resources
which would be affected by the project, and, therefore, have no comment on the
project.
PROPOSED PROJECT:
The western section of Wake County, North Carolina is experiencing increased
traffic demands along U.S. Highway 64 (located to the north), Olive Chapel
Road (located to the south), Kelly Road (located to the east), and New Hill Road
(located to the west). The extension of Hasse Avenue from the existing
Sweetwater Residential Subdivision to Olive Chapel Road will provide
continuous vehicular traffic from U.S. Highway 64 to Olive Chapel Road and
will alleviate existing traffic demands within this section of western Wake
County. Hasse Avenue is proposed to extend from the existing Sweetwater
Residential Subdivision located to the north, cross Reedy Branch, enter the
northwestern portion of the proposed Linden development, and extend beyond
the proposed Linden development to the southwest to intersect with Olive
Chapel Road. Future extension of Hasse Avenue is included on the Town of
Apex Transportation Plan Thoroughfare and Collector Street Plan (see Figure
4 — Overall Site Plan). A pre -application meeting was held with Mr. James
Lastinger of the USACE to discuss the permitting process, and it was decided
that the Town of Apex was the appropriate applicant.
The Hasse Avenue Extension project consists of three (3) phases. Phase 1 of
Hasse Avenue is proposed to be constructed first, and Phases 2 and 3 are
proposed to be constructed later. Phase 1 proposes to extend Hasse Avenue
from the existing Sweetwater Residential Subdivision, cross Reedy Branch, and
enter the northwestern section of the proposed Linden development. The future
alignment of Phases 2 and 3 proposes to extend Hasse Avenue beyond the
proposed Linden development through the property located at 2505 Olive
Chapel Road (Wake County PIN # 0722411102) and intersect with Olive
Chapel Road. There are Town of Apex buffer impacts associated with all three
phases of the proposed project. Phase 1 will impact 0.3 acres of Zone 1 and 0.15
acre of Zone 2 of the Town of Apex buffers associated with Stream A (Reedy
Branch). Because buffer impacts are greater than one third of an acre, mitigation

is required for the Phase 1 impacts at Crossing 1. Phase 2 proposes to impact
0.17 acres of Zone 1 and 0.05 acre of Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream B 1
(total impact of 0.22 acre). Phase 3 proposes to impact 0.19 acre of Zone 1 and
0.08 acre of Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream AA (total impact of 0.26
acre). Because the impact totals are less than one third of an acre for both Phase
2 and Phase 3, mitigation is not required for these impacts. Table 1 summarizes
the proposed riparian buffer impacts.
Applications for the USACE Nationwide Permit 14 and NC DWR GC 4088
have also been submitted. For the construction of Phase 1 of the Hasse Avenue
Extension, traditional equipment will be used consisting of front-end loaders,
bulldozers, paving equipment, graders, and earth movers.

Stormwater Management
The proposed stormwater management plan for the project will be designed to
protect the downstream environment. The plan incorporates stormwater
management techniques to manage both water quantity and quality aspects of
site runoff. Stormwater management for the project will be accomplished by
incorporating engineered stormwater best management practice facilities to
capture and treat the stormwater runoff from developed areas. The proposed
roadway is located within the Cape Fear River basin with all stormwater runoff
draining into Reedy Branch. Per the Town of Apex regulations, final design of
CRS -16000

stormwater management on this site shall meet the stormwater management and
diffuse flow performance standards for development set forth in the Town of
Apex Unified Development Ordinance (UDO).
AVOIDANCE & MINIMIZATION:
The project was designed to avoid and minimize impacts to streams and
wetlands. Due to increased traffic demands along U.S. Highway 64 (located to
the north), Olive Chapel Road (located to the south), Kelly Road (located to the
east), and New Hill Road (located to the west), a north -to -south secondary
arterial roadway alignment is required to have continuous vehicular traffic flow.
To provide a north -to -south secondary arterial roadway, The Town of Apex
Transportation Plan Thoroughfare and Collector Street Plan prescribes the
alignment of Hasse Avenue from U.S. Highway 64 to Olive Chapel Road. As a
result, the alignment of Hasse Avenue from U.S. Highway 64 was incorporated
into the existing Sweetwater Residential Subdivision. To extend Hasse Avenue
through the proposed Linden development (located south of the Sweetwater
Residential Subdivision) and terminate at Olive Chapel Road, the alignment for
Hasse Avenue must cross Reedy Branch at the proposed location (see Crossing
1; Phase 1) and extend into the property located at 2505 Olive Chapel Road (see
Crossings 2 & 3; Phases 2 & 3).
For Hasse Avenue Phase 1 (Crossing 1), various alternatives were examined
with consideration of the following: a) existing traffic demands along U.S.
Highway 64, Olive Chapel Road, Kelly Road, and New Hill Road; b) access to
the proposed Linden development and the existing Sweetwater Residential
Subdivision; c) emergency vehicular access to the proposed Linden
development; and d) a no build option. Not building the extension of Hasse
Avenue to terminate at Olive Chapel Road was determined not to be a viable
option since this would not alleviate traffic demands along U.S. Highway 64,
Olive Chapel Road, Kelly Road, and New Hill Road. The extension of Hasse
Avenue would provide additional emergency vehicular access to the proposed
Linden development, and provide a north -to -south connection between U.S.
Highway 64 and Olive Chapel Road, thereby alleviating traffic along U.S.
Highway 64, Olive Chapel Road, Kelly Road, and New Hill Road. Due to the
alignment configuration of Hasse Avenue through the existing Sweetwater
Residential Subdivision, the crossing of Reedy Branch by Hasse Avenue is
limited to only one location that takes into account geometric configuration
design, construction constraints, and safe vehicular passage. The alignment of
the future Phases 2 & 3 of the Hasse Avenue Extension will be directed along
CRS -16000

a route which proposes to impact the least amount of jurisdictional streams and
wetlands located on the property at 2505 Olive Chapel Road so that a terminus
connection to Olive Chapel Road could be achieved. Additionally, each road
crossing alignment (Crossings 1, 2, and 3) has been designed to the minimum
size necessary to promote safe vehicular passage.
Road crossings and culvert impacts at stream features (Stream Feature A
[Reedy Branch], Stream Feature B1, and Stream Feature AA) have been
minimized to the maximum extent practicable and have been aligned to cross
streams as close to 90 degrees as possible. Dissipator pads associated with each
culvert will be installed flush with the existing grade of the stream bed to allow
for aquatic life passage. There will be minimal temporary impacts associated
with coffer dams and diversion channels, which will be used to conduct the
proposed work within dry conditions. The use of the temporary coffer dams and
diversion channels will be less than 90 days from the initiation of the proposed
stream and wetland impacts. Measures will be taken to prevent oil, tar, trash,
debris and other pollutants from entering the adjacent jurisdictional streams and
wetlands. Any excess excavated materials not utilized as back fill will be placed
and contained within upland areas and permanently stabilized to prevent
erosion into adjacent jurisdictional streams and wetlands. Stockpiling of
excavated material within jurisdictional streams, wetlands, and riparian buffers
will be strictly prohibited as part of the construction of this project. All project
construction activities initiated within jurisdictional streams, wetlands, and
riparian buffers will be carried to completion in an expeditious manner to
minimize the period of disturbance within the jurisdictional features.
Proper sedimentation and erosion control methods will be utilized during all
phases of construction and installation as described in the Erosion Control Plan
sheet reviewed and approved by the NC Division of Land Quality and the Town
of Apex. All work will take place during dry conditions and can be facilitated
from high, non jurisdictional, stable ground. The contractor shall install silt
fence, inlet protection, sediment traps, diversion ditches, temporary coffer
dams, and tree protection, clearing only as necessary to install devices. All
erosion and sediment control measures will be checked for stability and
operation following every runoff producing rainfall, but in no case less than
once every week. Any needed repairs will be made immediately to maintain all
measures designed. An erosion control inspections report is required and will
be kept by the owner's representative. Temporary seeding and permanent
seeding plans are included to restore impacted areas. The project will meet all
relative requirements of Best Management Practices and Engineered

MITIGATION:
Phase 1 of the Hasse Avenue Extension will impact 0.3 acres of Zone 1 buffers and
0.15 acre of Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream A (Reedy Branch). Because
buffer impacts are greater than one third of an acre, mitigation is required for the
Phase 1 impacts at Crossing 1. Phase 2 proposes to impact 0.17 acres of Zone 1 and
0.05 acre of Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream B 1 (total impact of 0.22 acre).
Phase 3 proposes to impact 0.19 acre of Zone 1 and 0.08 acre of Zone 2 buffers
associated with Stream AA (total impact of 0.26 acre). Because the impact totals are
less than one third of an acre for both Phase 2 and Phase 3, mitigation is not required
for these impacts.
McAdams has requested buffer mitigation credits to compensate for 13,068 sq.
ft. of Zone 1 buffer impacts and 6,534 sq. ft. of Zone 2 impacts associated with
Crossing 1 (Stream A — Reedy Branch). The attached letter from DMS dated
November 20, 2017 demonstrates acceptance by DMS of. payment for the
necessary buffer mitigation credits to satisfy the compensatory mitigation
obligations for the proposed project. Credits requested beyond what is required
as mitigation for Crossing 1 impacts will be used later for impacts to Zone 3
Town of Apex of riparian buffers.
SUMMARY:
The extension of Hasse Avenue from the existing Sweetwater Residential
Subdivision to Olive Chapel Road will provide continuous vehicular traffic
from U.S. Highway 64 to Olive Chapel Road and alleviate existing traffic
demands within this section of western Wake County. The Hasse Avenue
Extension consists of (3) three phases. Phase 1 is proposed to be constructed
first, while Phases 2 and 3 are proposed to be constructed later. There will be a
total of 28,751 sq. ft. of Zone 1 buffer impacts and 11,984 sq. ft. of Zone 2
buffer impacts associated with three road crossings for the Hasse Avenue
Extension project. Buffer mitigation credits have been requested to compensate for
13,068 sq. ft. of Zone 1 impacts and 6,534 sq. ft. of Zone 2 impacts associated with
Crossing 1 (Phase 1). Buffer is not required for Crossings 2 and 3 (Phases 2 and
3). The attached letter from DMS dated November 20, 2017 demonstrates
acceptance by DMS of payment for the necessary buffer mitigation credits to satisfy
the compensatory mitigation obligations for the proposed project.

USGS HUC 03030002 Coordinates Latitude: 35.7335436516623
Longitude: -78.9138638656715
Location description: The protect area for this determination is approximately 1.12 acres located within a 16.97 acre
parcel identified by PIN 0722515118, as shown on the attached may entitled "Pricewood Lane Assemblaee-
Stream/wetland delineation exhibit' dated 9/22/2016.
Indicate Which of the Following Apply:
A. Preliminary Determination
There are waters, including wetlands, on the above described project area, that may be subject to Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including wetlands, have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently
accurate and reliable. Therefore this preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process,
including determining compensatory mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation
requirements, and other resource protection measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all
waters and wetlands that would be affected in any way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional
waters of the U.S. This preliminary determination is not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program
Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part 331). However, you may request an approved JD, which is an
appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further instruction.
_ There are wetlands on the above described property, that may be subject to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). However, since the
waters, including wetlands, have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction determination may not be
used in the permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary determination is merely an
effective presumption of CWA/RHA jurisdiction overall of the waters, including wetlands, at the project area, which is
not sufficiently accurate and reliable to support an enforceable permit decision. We recommend that you have the
waters of the U.S. on your property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a
timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination
_ There are Navigable Waters of the United States within the above described property subject to the permit requirements of
Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC
§ 1344). Unless there is a change in law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period
not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
_ There are waters of the U.S., including wetlands, on the above described project area subject to the permit requirements
of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) (33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
Pagel of 2

SAW -2016-01993
We recommend you have the waters of the U.S. on your property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to
accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that
can be verified by the Corps.
_ The waters of the U.S., including wetlands, on your project area have been delineated and the delineation has been
verified by the Corps. If you wish to have the delineation surveyed, the Corps can review and verify the survey upon
completion. Once verified, this survey will provide an accurate depiction of all areas subject to CWA and/or RHA
jurisdiction on your property which, provided there is no change in the law or our published regulations, may be relied
upon for a period not to exceed five years.
_ The waters of the U.S., including wetlands, have been delineated and surveyed and are accurately depicted on the plat
signed by the Corps Regulatory Official identified below on . Unless there is a change in the law or our
published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this
notification.
X There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described project area which are subject to the
permit requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our
published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this
notification.
The property is located in one of the 20 Coastal Counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act
(CAMA). You should contact the Division of Coastal Management in Morehead City, NC, at [phone] to
determine their requirements.
Placement of dredged or fill material within waters of the US, including wetlands, without a Department of the Army permit
may constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). Placement of dredged or fill material,
construction or placement of structures, or work within navigable waters of the United States without a Department of the
Army permit may constitute a violation of Sections 9 and/or 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC § 401 and/or 403). If
you have any questions regarding this determination and/or the Corps regulatory program, please contact James Lastineer at
919-554-4884 x32 or James.C.Lastineer(ia usace.armv.mil.
C. Basis For Determination: Pond B was determined to be a non -jurisdictional pond due entirely within
uplands.
D. Remarks: This determination only applied to the 1.12 acre project area as shown on the attached map described
above.
E. Attention USDA Program Participants
This del ineation/determ i nation has been conducted to identify the limits of Corps' Clean Water Act jurisdiction for the
particular site identified in this request. The delineation/determination may not be valid for the wetland conservation
provisions of the Food Security Act of 1985. If you or your tenant are USDA Program participants, or anticipate participation
in USDA programs, you should request a certified wetland determination from the local office of the Natural Resources
Conservation Service, prior to starting work.

I ) The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in the
review area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option to request
and obtain an approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an informed decision after
having discussed the various types of JDs and their characteristics and circumstances when
they may be appropriate.
2) In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a Nationwide
General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre- construction
notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting NWP or other general permit,
and the permit applicant has not requested an AJD for the activity, the permit applicant is
hereby made aware that: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization
based on a PJD, which does not make an official determination of jurisdictional aquatic
resources; (2) the applicant has the option to request an AJD before accepting the terms and
conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an AJD could
possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions;
(3) the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms
and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant can accept
a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and conditions of that
permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary;
(5) undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without
requesting an AJD constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a
permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered individual permit) or undertaking any activity in
reliance on any form of Corps permit authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that
all aquatic resources in the review area affected in any way by that activity will be treated as
jurisdictional, and waives any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial
compliance or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court;
and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD or a PJD, the JD will be processed
as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms and
conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively appealed
pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it becomes appropriate to
make an official determination whether geographic jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources
in the review area, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in
the review area, the Corps will provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is
practicable. This PJD finds that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be"
navigable waters of the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in
the review area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following
information:

Dear Mr. Buchholz:
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/raleigh. 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 concern 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 detert11ir1t11b Whether additional consultation with the
Service is necessary. In addition to the federally -protected species list, information on the
species' life histories and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or
evaluation and can be found on our web page at http://www.fws.gov/raleigh. Please check the
web site often for updated information or changes.
The term "federal species of concern" refers to those species which the Service believes might be in need of
concentrated conservation actions. Federal species of concern receive no legal protection and their designation does
not necessarily imply that the species will eventually be proposed for listing 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 comments 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://www.fws.gov/raleigh) 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).

B. Project Information and Prior Project History
3. 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:
The project area for the proposed Hasse Avenue extends from an existing residential subdivision (Sweetwater
Residential Subdivision) located to the north, crosses Reedy Branch, enters the northwestern portion of the
proposed Linden development, and extends southwest beyond the proposed Linden development to Olive
Chapel Road. Future extension of Hasse Avenue is included on the Town of Apex Transportation Plan
Thoroughfare and Collector Street Plan; therefore, the future alignment crosses the property located at 2505
Olive Chapel Road (Wake County PIN # 0722411102) and intersects with Olive Chapel Road.
The project area is within the Cape Fear River Basin, and within the Jordan Lake Watershed (HUC
030300020609). The Town of Apex is the delegated authority to implement buffer rules for the project area.
However, because the Town is the applicant for this project, we are submitting our buffer authorization
application to NC DWR for review and approval. There are three stream features (Stream Feature A [Reedy
Branch], Stream Feature B1, and Stream Feature AA) and two wetland features (Wetland D and Wetland B)
along the proposed Hasse Avenue alignment. See attached Figure 3 (Existing Conditions) for the location of
these features. Sections of Hasse Avenue located within the proposed Linden Subdivision have already
received a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (see attached USACE Action Id. SAW -2016-01993; issued
November 23, 2016). A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) has been requested for the future
alignment of Hasse Avenue where it crosses the property located at 2505 Olive Chapel Road (Wake County
PIN # 0722411102).
There is a 100 -year floodplain and floodway associated with Reedy Branch (NC FIRM Map 3720072200J;
effective date May 2, 2006). A Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) was submitted to the Town of
Apex and the to the state on May 3, 2017. Based on hydrologic and hydraulic analyses performed in
accordance with standard engineering practice, the proposed encroachment will not result in any increase in
flood levels within the community during the occurrence of the base flood discharge, and the requirements set
forth in the Town of Apex regulations will be met. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) issued a letter
on September 16, 2016 (see attached) stating 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 Endangered Species Act. Therefore, the USFWS believes the requirements
under Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act are fulfilled. The North Carolina Department of Natural and
Cultural Resources — State Historic Preservation Office (NC SHPO) issued a letter on April 6, 2017 (see
attached) stating that SHPO is aware of no historic resources which would be affected by the project, and,
therefore, have no comment on the project.
3b. Attach an 8'/z x 11 excerpt from the most recent version of the USGS topographic map indicating the location
of the site. See Figure 1.
3c. Attach an 8'/ x 11 excerpt from the most recent version of the published County NRCS Soil Survey Map
depicting the project site. See Figure 2.
3d. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
4,023 LF
3e. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The purpose of the project is to construct a secondary arterial roadway alignment from the existing Sweetwater
Residential Subdivision to Olive Chapel Road that will provide continuous vehicular traffic from U.S. Highway
64 to Olive Chapel Road in the western section of Wake County, North Carolina, which is experiencing
increased traffic demands.
FORM: SSGP3080 8-13 Page 3 of 11

B. Project Information and Prior Project History
3f.
Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The western section of Wake County, North Carolina is experiencing increased traffic demands along U.S.
Highway 64 (located to the north), Olive Chapel Road (located to the south), Kelly Road (located to the east),
and New Hill Road (located to the west). The extension of Hasse Avenue from the existing Sweetwater
Residential Subdivision to Olive Chapel Road will provide continuous vehicular traffic from U.S. Highway 64 to
Olive Chapel Road and will alleviate existing traffic demands within this section of western Wake County. Hasse
Avenue is proposed to extend from the existing Sweetwater Residential Subdivision located to the north, cross
Reedy Branch, enter the northwestern portion of the proposed Linden development, and extend beyond the
proposed Linden development to the southwest to intersect with Olive Chapel Road. Future extension of Hasse
Avenue is included on the Town of Apex Transportation Plan Thoroughfare and Collector Street Plan (see Figure
4 — Overall Site Plan). A pre -application meeting was held with Mr. James Lastinger of the USACE to discuss the
permitting process, and it was decided that the Town of Apex was the appropriate applicant.
The Hasse Avenue Extension project consists of three (3) phases. Phase 1 of Hasse Avenue is proposed to be
constructed first, and Phases 2 and 3 are proposed to be constructed later. Phase 1 proposes to extend Hasse
Avenue from the existing Sweetwater Residential Subdivision, cross Reedy Branch, and enter the northwestern
section of the proposed Linden development. The future alignment of Phases 2 and 3 proposes to extend Hasse
Avenue beyond the proposed Linden development through the property located at 2505 Olive Chapel Road
(Wake County PIN # 0722411102) and intersect with Olive Chapel Road. There are Town of Apex buffer impacts
associated with all three phases of the proposed project. Phase 1 will impact 0.3 acres of Zone 1 and 0.15 acre
of Zone 2 of the Town of Apex buffers associated with Stream A (Reedy Branch). Because buffer impacts are
greater than one third of an acre, mitigation is required for the Phase 1 impacts at Crossing 1. Phase 2 proposes
to impact 0.17 acres of Zone 1 and 0.05 acre of Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream B1 (total impact of 0.22
acre). Phase 3 proposes to impact 0.19 acre of Zone 1 and 0.08 acre of Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream
AA (total impact of 0.26 acre). Because the impact totals are less than one third of an acre for both Phase 2 and
Phase 3, mitigation is not required for these impacts.
Applications for the USACE Nationwide Permit 14 and NC DWR GC 4088 have also been submitted. For the
construction of Phase 1 of the Hasse Avenue Extension, traditional equipment will be used consisting of front-
end loaders, bulldozers, paving equipment, graders, and earth movers.

C. Impact Justification and Mitigation, continued
D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The project was designed to avoid and minimize impacts to streams and wetlands. Due to increased traffic
demands along U.S. Highway 64 (located to the north), Olive Chapel Road (located to the south), Kelly Road
(located to the east), and New Hill Road (located to the west), a north -to -south secondary arterial roadway
alignment is required to have continuous vehicular traffic flow. To provide a north -to -south secondary arterial
roadway, The Town of Apex Transportation Plan Thoroughfare and Collector Street Plan prescribes the
alignment of Hasse Avenue from U.S. Highway 64 to Olive Chapel Road. As a result, the alignment of Hasse
Avenue from U.S. Highway 64 was incorporated into the existing Sweetwater Residential Subdivision. To
extend Hasse Avenue through the proposed Linden development (located south of the Sweetwater Residential
Subdivision) and terminate at Olive Chapel Road, the alignment for Hasse Avenue must cross Reedy Branch
at the proposed location (see Crossing 1; Phase 1) and extend into the property located at 2505 Olive Chapel
Road (see Crossings 2 & 3; Phases 2 & 3).
For Hasse Avenue Phase 1 (Crossing 1), various alternatives were examined with consideration of the
following: a) existing traffic demands along U.S. Highway 64, Olive Chapel Road, Kelly Road, and New Hill
Road; b) access to the proposed Linden development and the existing Sweetwater Residential Subdivision; c)
emergency vehicular access to the proposed Linden development; and d) a no build option. Not building the
extension of Hasse Avenue to terminate at Olive Chapel Road was determined not to be a viable option since
this would not alleviate traffic demands along U.S. Highway 64, Olive Chapel Road, Kelly Road, and New Hill
Road. The extension of Hasse Avenue would provide additional emergency vehicular access to the proposed
Linden development, and provide a north -to -south connection between U.S. Highway 64 and Olive Chapel
Road, thereby alleviating traffic along U.S. Highway 64, Olive Chapel Road, Kelly Road, and New Hill Road.
Due to the alignment configuration of Hasse Avenue through the existing Sweetwater Residential Subdivision,
the crossing of Reedy Branch by Hasse Avenue is limited to only one location that takes into account
geometric configuration design, construction constraints, and safe vehicular passage. The alignment of the
future Phases 2 & 3 of the Hasse Avenue Extension will be directed along a route which proposes to impact
the least amount of jurisdictional streams and wetlands located on the property at 2505 Olive Chapel Road so
that a terminus connection to Olive Chapel Road could be achieved. Additionally, each road crossing alignment
(Crossings 1, 2, and 3) has been designed to the minimum size necessary to promote safe vehicular passage.

C. Impact Justification and Mitigation, continued
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction
techniques.
Road crossings and culvert impacts at stream features (Stream Feature A [Reedy Branch], Stream Feature B1,
and Stream Feature AA) have been minimized to the maximum extent practicable and have been aligned to
cross streams as close to 90 degrees as possible. Dissipator pads associated with each culvert will be installed
flush with the existing grade of the stream bed to allow for aquatic life passage. There will be minimal
temporary impacts associated with coffer dams and diversion channels, which will be used to conduct the
proposed work within dry conditions. The use of the temporary coffer dams and diversion channels will be less
than 90 days from the initiation of the proposed stream and wetland impacts. Measures will be taken to prevent
oil, tar, trash, debris and other pollutants from entering the adjacent jurisdictional streams and wetlands. Any
excess excavated materials not utilized as back fill will be placed and contained within upland areas and
permanently stabilized to prevent erosion into adjacent jurisdictional streams and wetlands. Stockpiling of
excavated material within jurisdictional streams, wetlands, and riparian buffers will be strictly prohibited as part
of the construction of this project. All project construction activities initiated within jurisdictional streams,
wetlands, and riparian buffers will be carried to completion in an expeditious manner to minimize the period of
disturbance within the jurisdictional features. Proper sedimentation and erosion control methods will be utilized
during all phases of construction and installation as described in the Erosion Control Plan sheet reviewed and
approved by the NC Division of Land Quality and the Town of Apex. All work will take place during dry
conditions and can be facilitated from high, non jurisdictional, stable ground. The contractor shall install silt
fence, inlet protection, sediment traps, diversion ditches, temporary coffer dams, and tree protection, clearing
only as necessary to install devices. All erosion and sediment control measures will be checked for stability and
operation following every runoff producing rainfall, but in no case less than once every week. Any needed
repairs will be made immediately to maintain all measures designed. An erosion control inspections report is
required and will be kept by the owner's representative. Temporary seeding and permanent seeding plans are
included to restore impacted areas. The project will meet all relative requirements of Best Management
Practices and Engineered Stormwater Control Structures as outlined through State and Local Stormwater
Rules.

2c. If buffer mitigation is required, is payment to a
® Yes ❑ No
mitigation bank or NC EEP proposed?
2d. If yes, attach the acceptance letter from the mitigation bank or NC EEP. (see attached letter from NC DMS)
2e. If no, then discuss what type of mitigation is proposed.
2f. Comments: Phase 1 of the Hasse Avenue Extension will impact 0.3 acres of Zone 1 buffers and 0.15 acre of
Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream A (Reedy Branch). Because buffer impacts are greater than one third of
an acre, mitigation is required for the Phase 1 impacts at Crossing 1. Phase 2 proposes to impact 0.17 acres of
Zone 1 and 0.05 acre of Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream 131 (total impact of 0.22 acre). Phase 3
proposes to impact 0.19 acre of Zone 1 and 0.08 acre of Zone 2 buffers associated with Stream AA (total
impact of 0.26 acre). Because the impact totals are less than one third of an acre for both Phase 2 and Phase
3, mitigation is not required for these impacts.
McAdams has requested buffer mitigation credits to compensate for 13,068 sq. ft. of Zone 1 buffer impacts and
6,534 sq. ft. of Zone 2 impacts associated with Crossing 1 (Stream A — Reedy Branch). The attached letter
from DMS dated November 20, 2017 demonstrates acceptance by DMS of payment for the necessary buffer
mitigation credits to satisfy the compensatory mitigation obligations for the proposed project. Credits requested
beyond what is required as mitigation for Crossing 1 impacts will be used later for impacts to Zone 3 Town of
Apex of riparian buffers.
