Brelvi Realty has contracted CWS to provide Section 404/401 permitting services for this project. Applicant Name: Brelvi Realty, Mr. Munir Brelvi Mailing Address: 6350 Cumberland Drive, Harrisburg, NC 28075 Phone Number of Owner/Applicant: (704) 401-6873 ~ Street Address of Project: NC Highway 49 ~ ~"' ~ , Waterway: UT's to Rocky River MAC ~ ~ D Basin: Yadkin River (HU# 03040105) ~'~~~ City: Harrisburg _ ~';':'.I'r County: Cabarrus ~ ~ Decimal Degree Coordinate Location of Project Site: N35.33448° W80.62584° USGS Quadrangle Name: Harrisburg, North Carolina, 1996; Concord SE, North Carolina, 1991 Current Land Use The current land use for the project area is wooded with adjacent agricultural areas. Typical on-site upland vegetation includes red maple (Ater rubrum), hackberry (Celtic laevigata), shagbark hickory (Carya ovata), box elder (Ater negundo) and privet (Ligustrum sinense). Typical on-site wetland vegetation includes sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), hackberry, ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), green ash (Fraxinus pensylvanica), red oak (Quercus rubra) According to the Soil Survey of Cabarrus County', on-site soils consist of Armenia loam (Ar), Iredell Loam, 0-2% slopes (IdA) and Mecklenburg loam, 2-8% slopes (MeB). The NC Hydric Soil Database lists Armenia loam as a hydric soil in Cabarrus County and lists Iredell Loam, 0-2% slopes as potentially having hydric inclusions. Jurisdictional Determination On January 31, 2007, CWS's Craig Wyant delineated (flagged in field) and classified jurisdictional waters of the U.S. within the property boundary. Jurisdictional areas were delineated using the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) Routine On-Site Determination Method. This method is defined in t United States Department of Agriculture, 1988. Soil Survey of Cabarrus County, North Carolina. CHARLOTTE COLUMBIA RALEIGH 550 E WESTINGHOUSE BLVD. CHARLOTTE, NC 28273 704-527-1177 (v) 704-527-1133 (fax) WWW.CWS-INC.NET March 15, 2007 Ms. Cyndi Karoly Page 2 of 4 the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual? Jurisdictional stream channels were classified according to recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ)3 and USACE guidance. NCDWQ Stream Classification Forms and USACE Stream Quality Assessment Worksheets representative of Streams A-C are enclosed (SCP-A ,SCP-B, SCP-C). CWS is requesting written verification from USACE regarding the extent of all jurisdictional features within the property. The results of the on-site field investigations conducted by CWS indicate that there are two jurisdictional stream channels (Streams A and C) and one jurisdictional wetland area (Wetlands AA) located within the property (Figure 1, enclosed). There is also a section of non- jurisdictional ephemeral channel present (Stream B). Ephemeral Stream B is the upstream continuation of Unimportant Intermittent Stream A and is represented by SCP-B (enclosed). Photographs of Ephemeral Stream B are enclosed. Routine On-Site Data Forms representative of Wetland AA as well as non jurisdictional upland areas have been enclosed (DP1-A, DP1-B and DP2- A). On-site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. include unnamed tributaries to Rocky River. Rocky River is located within the Yadkin River basin (HiJ# 030401054). Rocky River is rated "Class C" by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ). On-Site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. were GPS surveyed by CWS using asub-meter GPS unit and total approximately 2.32 acres (101,088 square feet). Linear footage and acreage of on-site jurisdictional waters are summarized in Table 1. Table 1.

Stream C was evaluated to be perennial. This channel exhibited ordinary high water widths of 1.5-3 feet, persistent flow, moderate sinuosity and a moderate continuous bed and bank. Biological sampling of Stream C revealed a strong presence of filamentous algae. Perennial Stream C scored 56 out of a possible 100 points on the USACE Stream Quality Assessment Form and 30.5 out of 71 possible points on the NCDWQ Stream Classification Form, indicating perennial status (SCP-C, enclosed). Enclosed are photographs of Perennial Stream C. Intermittent Streams Stream A flows west across the western portion of the property and is approximately 145 linear feet in length. Stream A was evaluated to be unimportant intermittent. This channel exhibited ordinary high water widths of 1.5-3 feet, persistent flow, moderate sinuosity and a moderate continuous bed and bank. Stream A scored 55 out of a possible 100 points on the USACE Stream Quality Assessment Form and 22 out of 71 possible points on the NCDWQ Stream Classification Form, indicating 2 Environmental Laboratory. 1987.

Wetlands Wetland AA is located in the western portion of the property and is approximately 2.58 acres in extent (Figure 1, enclosed). This forested wetland area is hydrologically connected to Unimportant Intermittent Stream A and Perennial Stream C. Dominant vegetation within these areas includes sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), hackberry (Celtis laevigata), ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), green ash (Fraxinus pensylvanica), red oak (Quercus rubra) and Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense). These areas exhibited low chroma soils (lOYR 3/1 at 0 -3 inches, 10 YR 2/1 at 3-11 inches and 2.SY 2/1 at 11-15 inches), drainage patterns, water marks, and water stained leaves. A Routine On-Site Determination Form representative of Wetland AA is enclosed (DP1-B). Photographs of Wetland AA are enclosed. Routine On-Site Determination Forms representative of non jurisdictional upland areas are also enclosed (DP1-A and DP2-A). Agency Correspondence Cultural Resources A letter was forwarded to the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) on March 14, 2007 to determine the presence of any areas of architectural, historic, or archaeological significance that would be affected by the project. As of the date of this submittal, a response from SHPO has not yet been received. Protected Species A letter was forwarded to the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) on March 14, 2007 to determine the presence of any federally-listed, candidate endangered, threatened species or critical habitat located within the project area. As of the date of this submittal, a response from NCNHP has not yet been received. Purpose and Need for the Project The purpose of the project is to construct amini-warehouse storage facility and associated offices. The property has been zoned and valued for this use. Avoidance and Minimization Impacts to on-site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. have been reduced to the maximum extent practicable. Total wetland impacts have been reduced to 0.30 acre. Impacts to highest quality contiguous wetlands have been avoided. Proposed impacts are necessary to accommodate the minimum widths of buildings and driveway. Impacts to jurisdictional streams have been avoided. Proper sediment and erosion control measures will be used to minimize disturbances to downstream waters. Proposed Impacts to Jurisdictional Waters Unavoidable impacts to Wetland AA total 0.30 acres and are the result of the placement of fill related to the construction of the proposed project. There are no impacts to jurisdictional stream channels. On behalf of Brelvi Realty, CWS is submitting aPre-Construction Notification Application with attachments in accordance with Nationwide Permit General Condition No. 13, and pursuant to Nationwide Permit No. 39 and Water Quality Certification No. 3402 (enclosed). March 15, 2007 Ms. Cyndi Karoly Page 4 of 4 Compensatory Mitigation Brelvi Realty proposes to mitigate for the unavoidable impacts to Wetland AA by avoiding impacts to the highest quality contiguous portion of Wetland AA and by avoiding all stream impacts. Additionally unavoidable impacts will be minimized to the greatest extent practicable. This will leave the majority of Wetland AA intact. Please do not hesitate to contact Craig R. Wyant at 704-527-1177 or craig@cws-inc.net should you have any questions or comments regarding these findings. C,~' Craig R. Wyant RLA/SWS Thomas J.

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.
