VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2F 1 .0500, mitigation may be re uired b Division of Watct Quality for projects inva2f q y the NC freshwater- wetlands or -renter than or equal to streams. ?I SOt linear[ feor equal to et of total one acct of impacts to p s to perennial opgrr h:??e v ?,r I USACF, -- In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when necessary to cnsurc that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will he considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at http://h2o.eni-.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.htmi. 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of' the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet i I' more space is needed. 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at (919) 733-5208 to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior to submittal of' a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at litt1)://h2o.enr.stite.nc.us/wrp/index.htm, If use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the following infornurtion: A"W''nt (d firma mitigation requested (linear feet): i\nu?nnt of luilfer mitigation requested (s(Juare feet); Amomit of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (a Ainonnt of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requeste Amount ofr'();rstal wetland mitigation requested (ac I';i.L-,c M o I IX.
