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 site is currently wooded. Three wetland areas and one stream are located on site. Wetland A is located on the northern portion of the site. Wetland B is located on the southern portion of the site, abutting Stream A. Stream A has intermittent flow and drains off -site to the northwest. According to Monroe Code of Ordinances, Code §158.06, a 50-foot vegetative buffer is required along Stream A. Wetland C is located on the central portion of the site. Several mounds of dirt and vegetative debris are located throughout Wetland C. A relic logging access road severes connection between Wetland A and C. The wetland and stream locations were verified by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on November 27, 2018 (SAW-2006- 40743). The site is situated in a developing area of Union County. An elementary school is located north of the site. Wooded land, agricultural land, and dwellings are located east of the site. Weddington Road bounds the site to the south followed by a church. North Rocky River Road bounds the site to the west. Wooded and agricultural land are located further west. 4b. Have Corps permits or DWR certifications been obtained for this project (including all prior phases) in the past?* r Yes r No r Unknown 4c.

List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property: 1.67 acres 4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property: 950 feet 4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:* The proposed project involves construction of a residential subdivision consisting of single-family homes. As the population of Union County continues to grow, new affordable housing accommodations are needed to keep up with an increasing population. The proposed subdivision is designed to accommodate and attract middle income families. Access to the proposed subdivision shall be located on the north site of Waddington Road and on the east side of North Rocky River Road. 41. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:* The proposed project includes development of a 184-lot residential subdivision consisting of single-family homes. A community center and pool shall be located on the central portion of the site. Minor impacts are proposed at Wetland Area A. The proposed residential development will avoid Wetland Areas B, C, and Stream A. There will be two access points to the proposed subdivision. The access roads will extend north from Weddington Road and east from North Rocky River Road, respectively. Proposed development of an improved road on the northern portion of site will result in 0.084 acre of wetland impacts. The proposed road crossing shall provide neighborhood continuity and access to residential units. A stormwater BMP is designed on the west side of Wetland Area A. 24" reinforced concrete pipe (RFP) shall be used to convey stormwater from the proposed development to the BMP. The RFP piping will discharge directly to the BMP. The BMP shall discharge to an 18" RCP that will be tied in to existing stormwater infrastructure associated with the adjacent school to the north. Timbering of the site will utilize heavy machinery and chainsaws to clear the project areas for development. Bulldozers, backhoes, and excavators will be used in the grading of the site, building of the BMPs, and other aspects associated with the development of a residential subdivision. Additionally, pick-up trucks will be utilized on site by contractors and construction workers. 4j. Please upload project drawings for the proposed project.

Is this a phased project?* r Yes O No 7b. If yes, explain. Development of the residential subdivision vdll consist of three (3) phases. By building in phases, the developer is managing their budget by ensuring completed houses sell before they invest in building new houses within the proposed subdivision. Are any other NWP(s), regional general permit(s), or individual permits(s) used, or intended to be used, to authorize any part of the proposed project or related activity? D.

The road shall provide neighbor continuity for the eastern and western portions of the subdivision. The proposed road will ease vehicle traffic on other streets within the development. E. Impact Justification and Mitigation 1. Avoidance and Minimization 1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project: The current site plans were designed to specifically to avoid and minimize impacts to Waters of the U.S. In 2006, the USACE determined there were no Waters of the U.S. within the site boundary (same action ID as current JD). In August 2018, site plans were designed based around the 2006 JD. Therefore, the original site plans for this project were designed without regard to wetland resources. After a preliminary site reconnaissance by the permittee, potential Waters of the U.S. were observed. Headwater was retained to perform a wetland delineation in September 2018. We identified and mapped 1.69 acres of wetland and 950 feet of stream. The wetland delineation was approved by the Army Corps of Engineers on November 27, 2018. Therefore, in retrospect, the original site plans included over 1.5 acres of wetland impacts, and approximately 100 feet of stream impacts. Streets and residential lots were located through Wetland Areas A, B and C, plus a road crossing was designed through Stream A and its associated 50-foot buffer. A third access point to the subdivision was located on the east side of Rocky River Road. In August 2019, the site plans eliminated the stream crossing, altered the road design, and minimized lot size. These site plans depicted a residential lot and a stormwater BMP throughout Wetland Areas A. The stormwater BMP was added to the northern portion of the site, within the footprint of Wetland A. This area was originally selected due to its lower topographic position (i.e. water flows downhill). Permanent impacts to Wetland Area A were minimized to 0.44-acre. In addition to payment into a mitigation bank, a proposition was made to restore Wetland C which included removing relic fill material, restoring the disturbed area to grade, and planting native species. After review of mitigation options and potential restoration efforts, further avoidance and minimization efforts were implemented. The current site plans relocated the proposed BMP to the west of Wetland Area A, and open green space acreage was reduced to accommodate for residential lots. Wetland impacts have been limited to a single road crossing. The proposed project has minimized wetland impacts to a total of 0.084- acre. The permanent wetland impacts are to allowfor a road that connects lots on the northern portion of the site. A mitigation plan has been eliminated from this proposed action since total impacts are less than 0.10-acre. 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques: Silt fencing will be installed prior to construction along the perimeter of the wetlands and stream to minimize sedimentation into these resources. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State 2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State? r Yes r No 2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why: Permanent wetland impacts are less than 0.10-acre. Therefore, compensatory mitigation is not required. F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR) 1. Diffuse Flow Plan 1a. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules? r Yes f• No If no, explain why: City of Monroe buffers apply to the intermittent stream. Monroe Code of Ordinances, Code §158.06 2. Stormwater Management Plan 2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOT's Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?* r Yes r No 2b. Does this project meet the requirements for low density projects as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .1003(2)? r Yes r No 2c. Does this project have a stormwater management plan (SMP) reviewed and approved under a state stormwater program or state -approved local government stormwater program? r Yes r N/A - project disturbs < 1 acre 2d. Which of the following stormwater management program(s) apply: V Local Government F State Local Government Stormwater Programs W Phase II F NSW r USMP r Water Supply Please identify which local government stormwater program you are using. City of Monroe Comments: Stormwater management plan will be submitted to City of Monroe for review. G. Supplementary Information 1. Environmental Documentation r No 1a.
