Comments (continued from page 1):
Site #1 a Channel D, intermittent. Proposal is to install a culvert for a road crossing.
Site #2: Channel A. perennial. Proposal is to install a culvert for a road crossing. This was the
largest channel observed at the site and, e xcept for a few water pools, it was dry. How ever, the
stream characteristics appeared to be stron g-'-m bed, stream sinuosity, voi d of vegetation
and leaf lifter in the channel)- Given the "w et" year and the size of the channel (-4'W x 4' H) some
flow in the channel would be expected.
Site #3; Channel B, intermitte nt. Proposal is to fill t he upper portion (headwaters) of this channel.
The cha nnel u irnately conver ges with channel A a pproximately 200 ft upstream of site #2. The
channe l was dry (from headwa ters to stream A). Th ere was no strong stream characteristics
observe d. As staff walked dow nstream from the he adwaters (-150 linear ft.) , the channel
"dissa are ", but re-emerge d 75 to 100 ft, downs tream.
Site #4: Headwaters (epheme ral channel) to chann el A. intermittent. Proposal is to install a culvert
for a ro ad crossing, The chan nel was dry except fo r a couple of pools observed downstream of the
impose d impact area.
Site #5: Channel C, intermitten t. Proposal is to fill t his channel. An isolated channel similar to site #3.
The cha nnel was drv and had some stream charact ierestics (gravel bed, sinuosity). The channel
dissipat ed into a small low qua lity wetland area.
All chan nels observed were dr v including the "pere nnial" channel. No aquatic animals or plants were
observe d. Buffers and deed re strictions are propos ed for the remainder of the stream channels at the
site.
There a re stormwater concern s related to the propo sed club house (jn the center of the site off Billie
Howie Rd.) and a portion of th e development that is along the prope[Ly line north of the intersection of
Billie H owie Rd. and Indian Tra ils Rd.
Wetlan d impacts at the site are less than 0.1 acres.

Comments:
Staff visited the site on October 8th. The a lien cant proposes stream impacts at five sites at the
subject location. Two sites (#1 & #2) were identified as important by the a Inn icant, thus they would
be subject to mitigation if the 150 ft. threshold is exceeded. Site #1 was described as an important
intermittent stream and site #2 as an im o?perennial. Staff inspected four (sites #2 thru #5) of
the five proposed impact sites. All stream channels were drv. except for a couple of pools above site
#2. There was no observable aquatic life (crawfish, salamanders, etc.) present.

The purpose of this PCN is to request authorization for proposed impacts to regulated Waters of the
U.S. for the above referenced project Impacts are necessary and have been minimized to the maximum
extent practicable for the purpose of constructing the proposed residential subdivsion (see attached
application forms and maps).
Minimization and avoidance has been achieved through exhaustive redesign efforts based on the field
approved delineation. Less than 150 linear feet of perennial or intermittent channel with important
aquatic function will be piped for access to high ground. Approximately 99.5 percent of regulated
channels on the property will be avoided (no impacts from proposed development) and no permanent
loss of regulated wetlands is proposed.
Thank you in advance for your timely consideration of this PCN. Please call with questions or to discuss
the project in further detail.
Respectfully submitted,

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial
viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and
explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the
desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during
construction to reduce impacts.
Impacts to perennial and intermittent / important stream beds has been minimized to the
maximum extent practicable (two proposed road crossings to important streams have been
abandoned) Impacts to regulated wetlands have been totally avoided.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of
Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands
or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams.
USACE - 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 ensure
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 be 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
Page 4 of 7
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.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html.
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 if more space is needed.
approximately 12,000 linear feet of stream located on the site will not be impacted by the
proposed development. Deed notifications will be placed on all that have regulated channels or
wetlands. Extensive buffers have been maintained to the maximum extent practicable to all
channels. Site aradina is to be completed such that each lot that is adinent to a stream
incorportates a buffer prior to flow entering the creek. Land disturbance or vegetation
removal within COS areas has been minimized or avoided to provide more buffer / natural
areas.
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 http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check
the appropriate box on page three and provide the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): n/a
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): n/a
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): n/a
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): n/a
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): n/a
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public (federal/state)
land?
Yes ? No
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the requirements of
the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)? Note: If you are not sure

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial
viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and
explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the
desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during
construction to reduce impacts.
Initially Proposed sewer line locations were evaluated for wetlands and some eliminated for
locations that avoid impacts all together. Minimal impacts have been achieved by currently
proposed locations.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of
Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands
or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams.
USACE - 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 ensure
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 be 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
Page 4 of 7
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.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html.
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 if more space is needed.
backfills will be placed to original grade, maximum maintenance corridor will be 10' wide
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.

instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
highest quality.
