C. 28891-5006 Dear Mr. Lund: The North Carolina Department of Transportation, Division of Highways, proposes the following project for your issuance of a Section 404 Permit. We believe this project can be accomplished under NWP #14, Road Crossing. COUNTY: Iredell - LOCATION: Pipes on SR 1837, 0.6 miles and 1.4 miles north of SR 1840 STREAM: Unnamed tributaries to Long Branch PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The replacement of an existing 56' , 72" CMP with a 7gL Feazd&alls 96" CMP and an existing 60' long, 72" CMP with a 701 tg, 72" CMP (both with a concrete and associated rip-rap for stabilization) on less than 1/4 acre of NCDOT right of way at each site. The pipes will be placed below existing streambed elevation and existing channel morphology will be maintained upstream and downstream of the pipes. Site location maps and sketches of planned activities are attached. It is proposed that the watercourses will be managed during construction by the utilizing sand-filled burlap bags to block the stream approximately 15 feet beyond the upstream and downstream of the proposed pipe. A pump will be used to divert the water across the road through a flexible pipe. There are no wetlands; however, the stream is classified "WS-III" waters. Enclosed is a NCDOT Hazardous Spill Basin checklist documenting the roadway and water quality criteria for this project. Proper erosion and sedimentation control measures will be implemented during the project construction. A review of the Natural Heritage information for the threatened (T/SA -Threatened due to similarity of appearance) species listed for Iredell County, the bog turtle (Clemmys muhlenbergii), did not reveal any known sites in the vicinity of the proposed project. I have conducted a survey for the bog turtle in the project area on April 16, 2001. None were observed. It was determined that neither the bog turtle nor suitable habitat was located in the proposed project area. No significant effect on this species is anticipated. A review of the National Register of Historic Places was also conducted. It is anticipated that no site listed on the National Register will be affected by the proposed project. By copy of this letter, we are asking Edward L. Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer to comment on the above project. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting concurrence from the Wildlife Resources Commission, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and the State Historic Preservation Office. By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of the application package to John Domey, NCDENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetland Unit for review. A $200.00 check is enclosed for application processing. Your earliest consideration for this request would be greatly appreciated. Should you have any questions, please call me at 704-480-9020.

This form is also to be used for any project requiring approval under any Riparian Buffer Rules implemented by the N.C. Division of Water Quality. This form should not be used if you are requesting an Individual 404 Permit or Individual 401 Water Quality Certification. The USACE Individual Permit application form is available online at http://www.saw.usace.army.miI/wet]ands/Perm app.htm. The USACE is the lead regulatory agency. To review the requirements for the use of Nationwide, Regional or General permits, and to determine which permit applies to your project, please go to the USACE website at http://www saw usace army.mil/wetlands/re?,,tour.htm, or contact one of-the field offices listed at the end of this application. The website also lists the responsible project manager for each county in North Carolina and provides additional information regarding the identification and regulation of wetlands and waters of the U.S. The DWQ issues a corresponding Certification (General or Individual), and cannot tell the applicant which 401 Certification will apply until the 404 Permit type has been determined by the USACE. Applicants are encouraged to visit DWQ's 401/Wetlands Unit website at http:/ih2o.enr.state.nc.us/newet]ands to read about current requirements for the 401 Water Quality Certification Program and to determine whether or not Riparian Buffer Rules are applicable. The applicant is also advised to read the full text of the General Certification (GC) matching the specific 404 Permit requested. In some cases, written approval for some General Certifications is not required, provided that the applicant adheres to all conditions of the GC. Applicants lacking access to the internet should contact DWQ's Central Office in Raleigh at (919) 733-1786. Trout Waters Coordination - Special coordination with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) is also required for projects occurring in any of North Carolina's twenty-five counties that contain trout waters. In such cases, the applicant should contact the appropriate NCWRC regional coordinator (listed by county on the last page of this application). Page 1 of 12 CAMA Coordination - If the project occurs in any of North Carolina's twenty coastal counties (listed on the last page of this application) the applicant should also contact the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM) at (919) 733-2293. DCM will determine whether or not the project involves a designated Area of Environmental Concern, in which case DCM will act as the lead permitting agency. In such cases, DCM will require a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Permit and will coordinate the 404/401 Permits. USACE Permits - Submit one copy of this form, along with supporting narratives, maps, data forms, photos, etc. to the applicable USACE Regulatory Field Office (addresses are listed at the end of this application). Upon receipt of an application, the USACE will determine if the application is complete as soon as possible, not to exceed 30 days. This PCN form is designed for the convenience of the applicant to address information needs for all USACE Nationwide, Regional or General permits, as well as information required for State authorizations, certifications, and coordination. Fully providing the information requested on this form will result in a complete application for any of the USACE Nationwide, Regional or General permits. To review the minimum amount of information that must be provided for a complete PCN for each USACE Nationwide permit, see Condition 13, 65 Fed.Reg. 12893 (March 9, 2000), available at http://www saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands/nwpfinalFedReR.pdf.

Incomplete applications will be returned. Submit seven collated copies of all USACE Permit materials to the Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetlands Unit, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650. If written approval is required or specifically requested for a 401 Certification, then a non-refundable application fee is required. In brief, if project impacts include less than one acre of cumulative wetland/water impacts and less than 150 feet cumulative impacts to streams, then a fee of $200 is required. If either of these thresholds is exceeded, then a fee of $475 is required. A check made out to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, with the specific name of the project or applicant identified, should be stapled to the front of the application package. For more information, see the DWQ website at http•//112o.elinr.state.nc.us/newetlands/fees.html. The fee must be attached with the application unless the applicant is a federal agency in which case the check may be issued from a separate office. In such cases, the project must be identifiable on the U.S. Treasury check so that it can be credited to the appropriate project. If written approval is sought solely for Buffer Rules, the application fee does not apply, and the applicant should clearly state (in a cover letter) that only Buffer Rule approval is sought in writing. Wetlands or waters of the U.S. may not be impacted prior to issuance or waiver of a Section 401 Water Quality Certification. Upon receipt of a complete application for a 401 Certification, the Division of Water Quality has 60 days to prepare a written response to the applicant. This may include a 401 Certification, an on-hold letter pending receipt of additional requested information, or denial.

Pond Creation NO POND CREATION If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application. Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area: Page 7 of 12 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. The existing rusted pipes are being replaced with a slightly longer new pipe (At the first site the new pipe is 14 feet longer & 24 inches larger, At the second site the new pipe is the same size and 10 feet longer) The pipe lengths must be increased to provide a safe roadway shoulder widths A concrete headwall and riprap will be used at both locations to reduce erosion. Permanent riprap will extend approximately 10 feet upstream and downstream of both of the proposed pipes. The invert of the pipes will be set one foot below the streambed_to allow for aquatic passage The streams are 1-3 feet in width and are therefore small enough to be dammed and the water pumped around the sites during, installation The disturbance will be restricted to within 15 feet stream and downstream of the proposed pipe lengths Failure to replace the rusted pipes could lead to the road being washed out with subsequent danger to life and property. 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 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.ne.us/newetIands/strm,izide.html. 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 Page 8 of 12 and/or map, if oflsite), 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. STREAM IMPACTS < 150 FEET MITIGATION NOT ANTICIPATED 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.stite.nc.us/wrp/index.litm.

C. 28151-0047 April 19, 2001 Mr. Steve Lund, Project Manager - NCDOT Projects US Army Corp of Engineers Asheville Regulatory Field Office 151 Patton Avenue, Room 143 Asheville, N. C. 28891-5006 Dear Mr. Lund: -n nq -A C-) rn The North Carolina Department of Transportation, Division of Highways, proposes the following project for your issuance of a Section 404 Permit. We believe this project can be accomplished under NWP #14, Road Crossing. COUNTY: Iredell LOCATION: Pipes on SR 1837, 0.6 miles and 1.4 miles north of SR 1840 STREAM: Unnamed tributaries to Long Branch PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The replacement of an existing 56' long, 72" CMP with a 70' long, 96" CMP and an existing 60' long, 72" CMP with a 70' long, 72" CMP (both with a concrete headwalls and associated rip-rap for stabilization) on less than 1/4 acre ofNCDOT right of way at each site. The pipes will be placed below existing streambed elevation and existing channel morphology will be maintained upstream and downstream of the pipes. Site location maps and sketches of planned activities are attached. It is proposed that the watercourses will be managed during construction by the utilizing sand-filled burlap bags to block the stream approximately 15 feet beyond the upstream and downstream of the proposed pipe. A pump will be used to divert the water across the road through a flexible pipe. There are no wetlands; however, the stream is classified "WS-Hr' waters. Enclosed is a NCDOT Hazardous Spill Basin checklist documenting the roadway and water quality criteria for this project. Proper erosion and sedimentation control measures will be implemented during the project construction. A review of the Natural Heritage information for the threatened (T/SA -Threatened due to similarity of appearance) species listed for Iredell County, the bog turtle (Clemmys rnuhlenbergii), did not reveal any known sites in the vicinity of the proposed project. I have conducted a survey for the bog turtle in the project area on April 16, 2001. None were observed. It was determined that neither the bog turtle nor suitable habitat was located in the proposed project area. No significant effect on this species is anticipated. A review of the National Register of Historic Places was also conducted. It is anticipated that no site listed on the National Register will be affected by the proposed project. By copy of this letter, we are asking Edward L. Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer to comment on the above project. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting concurrence from the Wildlife Resources Commission, U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, and the State Historic Preservation Office. By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of the application package to John Dorney, NCDENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetland Unit for review. A $200.00 check is enclosed for application processing. Your earliest consideration for this request would be greatly appreciated. Should you have any questions, please call me at 704480-9020. Sincerely, Trish Simon Division 12 Environmental Officer Enclosures cc: Mr. Michael L.

OF \N A 4 Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) Application Form QG ?l For Section 404 and/or Section 10 Nationwide, Regional and General Permits, Section 401 General Water Quality Certifications, and Riparian Buffer and Watershed Buffer Rules This form is to be used for projects qualifying for any of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (USACE) Nationwide, Regional or General Permits as required by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, and for the North Carolina Division of Water Quality's (DWQ) associated General 401 Water Quality Certifications. This form is also to be used for any project requiring approval under any Riparian Buffer Rules implemented by the N.C. Division of Water Quality. This form should not be used if you are requesting an Individual 404 Permit or Individual 401 Water Quality Certification. The USACE Individual Permit application form is available online at http://www.saw.usace.army.miI/wetIands/Perm app.htm. The USACE is the lead regulatory agency. To review the requirements for the use of Nationwide, Regional or General permits, and to determine which permit applies to your project, please go to the USACE website at http://www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetiands/reptour.]itni, or contact one of the field offices listed at the end of this application. The website also lists the responsible project manager for each county in North Carolina and provides additional information regarding the identification and regulation of wetlands and waters of the U.S. The DWQ issues a corresponding Certification (General or Individual), and cannot tell the applicant which 401 Certification will apply until the 404 Permit type has been determined by the USACE. Applicants are encouraged to visit DWQ's 401/Wetlands Unit website at http:/ih2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetIands to read about current requirements for the 401 Water Quality Certification Program and to determine whether or not Riparian Buffer Rules are applicable. The applicant is also advised to read the full teat of the General Certification (GC) matching the specific 404 Permit requested. In some cases, written approval for some General Certifications is not required, provided that the applicant adheres to all conditions of the GC. Applicants lacking access to the internet should contact DWQ's Central Office in Raleigh at (919) 733-1786. Trout Waters Coordination - Special coordination with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) is also required for projects occurring in any of North Carolina's twenty-five counties that contain trout waters. In such cases, the applicant should contact the appropriate NCWRC regional coordinator (listed by county on the last page of this application). Page 1 of 12 CAMA Coordination - If the project occurs in any of North Carolina's twenty coastal counties (listed on the last page of this application) the applicant should also contact the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM) at (919) 733-2293. DCM will determine whether or not the project involves a designated Area of Environmental Concern, in which case DCM will act as the lead permitting agency. In such cases, DCM will require a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Permit and will coordinate the 404/401 Permits. USACE Permits - Submit one copy of this form, along with supporting narratives, maps, data forms, photos, etc. to the applicable USACE Regulatory Field Office (addresses are listed at the end of this application). Upon receipt of an application, the USACE will determine if the application is complete as soon as possible, not to exceed 30 days. This PCN form is designed for the convenience of the applicant to address information needs for all USACE Nationwide, Regional or General permits, as well as information required for State authorizations, certifications, and coordination. Fully providing the information requested on this form will result in a complete application for any of the USACE Nationwide, Regional or General permits. To review the minimum amount of information that must be provided for a complete PCN for each USACE Nationwide permit, see Condition 13, 65 Fed.Reg. 12893 (March 9, 2000), available at http://www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands/nwpfina]FedReiz.pdf. Processing times vary by permit and begin once the application has been determined to be complete. Please contact the appropriate regulatory field office for specific answers to permit processing periods. 401 Water Quality Certification or Buffer Rules - All information is required unless otherwise stated as optional. Incomplete applications will be returned. Submit seven collated copies of all USACE Permit materials to the Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetlands Unit, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650. If written approval is required or specifically requested for a 401 Certification, then a non-refundable application fee is required. In brief, if project impacts include less than one acre of cumulative wetland/water impacts and less than 150 feet cumulative impacts to streams, then a fee of $200 is required. If either of these thresholds is exceeded, then a fee of $475 is required. A check made out to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, with the specific name of the project or applicant identified, should be stapled to the front of the application package. For more information, see the DWQ website at http://h2o.elinr.state.nc.us/ncwetiands/fees.html. The fee must be attached with the application unless the applicant is a federal agency in which case the check may be issued from a separate office. In such cases, the project must be identifiable on the U.S. Treasury check so that it can be credited to the appropriate project. If written approval is sought solely for Buffer Rules, the application fee does not apply, and the applicant should clearly state (in a cover letter) that only Buffer Rule approval is sought in writing. Wetlands or waters of the U.S. may not be impacted prior to issuance or waiver of a Section 401 Water Quality Certification. Upon receipt of a complete application for a 401 Certification, the Division of Water Quality has 60 days to prepare a written response to the applicant. This may include a 401 Certification, an on-hold letter pending receipt of additional requested information, or denial.

R R Stream names can be found on USGS topographic maps. If a stream has no name, list as UT (unnamed tributary) to the nearest downstream named stream into which it flows. USGS maps are available through the USGS at 1-800-358-9616, or online at w1vtiv.uses.gov. Several internet sites also allow direct download and printing of USGS maps (e.g., wv.Av.topozone.com, w\%,\v.maj) uest.com, etc.). Cumulative impacts (linear distance in feet) to all streams on site: Temporary impacts = 60 feet beyond length of new pipe during stream diversion: Pipe extensions and riprap placement will impact a total of 64 feet of stream. 3.

Pond Creation NO POND CREATION If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application. Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embanlcment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area: Page 7 of 12 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. The existing rusted pipes are being replaced with a slightly longer new pipe (At the first site the new pipe is 14 feet longer & 24 inches larger, At the second site, the new pipe is the same size and 10 feet longer). The pipe lengths must be increased to provide a safe roadway shoulder widths. A concrete headwall and riprap will be used at both locations to reduce erosion. Permanent riprap will extend approximately 10 feet upstream and downstream of both of the proposed pipes The invert of the pipes will be set one foot below the streambed to allow for aquatic passage The streams are 1-3 feet in width and are therefore small enough to be dammed and the water pumped around the sites during installation. The disturbance will be restricted to within 15 feet upstream and downstream of the proposed pipe lengths. Failure to replace the rusted pipes could lead to the road being washed out with subsequent danger to life and property. 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 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 i de. html. http:/ih2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetIands/strynP 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 Page 8 of 12 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. STREAM IMPACTS < 150 FEET MITIGATION NOT ANTICIPATED 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http:/Ai2o.enr.state.nc.ugwrp/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): Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): IX. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only) Does the project involve an expenditure of public funds or the use of public (federal/state/local) 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 whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA coordinator at (919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation. Yes ? No If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ? No ? X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (DWQ Only) It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ Page 9 of 12 Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the applicant's discretion. Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )? Yes ? No ® If you answered "yes", provide the following information: Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer multipliers. Zone* Impact s uare feet) Multiplier Required Mitigation 1 3 2 1.5 Total ' Zone 1 exlends out 3U teet perpenmcular from near nam: or enamici; t one gut iiu? u, additional 20 feet from the edge of 'Lone 1. If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or. 0260. XI. Stormwater (DWQ Only) Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site. Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands downstream from the property. SR 1837 is a paved road There is no additional impervious surface proposed. Erosion and sedimentation control measures will be in place during pipe replacement XH. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Only) Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility. N/A Page 10 of 12 YdH. Violations (DWQ Only) Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 211.0500) or any Buffer Rules? Yes ? No Is this an after-the-fact permit application? Yes ? No XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional): It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
