Request for GC 4139
SAW-2017-01300
Sage Project #2017.33
On behalf of GHD-Beverly, LLC (applicant and owner), please find attached a complete application and
supplemental information requesting written concurrence from the NC Division of Water Resources
(NCDWR) that the activities associated with the proposed development of the Beverly Subdivision (Project)
may proceed under General Certification 4139 (GC 4139) and 15A NCAC 02B .0233. Please note that an
application requesting the use of Nationwide Permit (NWP) 29 was submitted to the USACE under a
separate cover on October 20, 2020. This application does not seek to replace the previous application to
the USCE.
Project Purpose and Location
The proposed Project is a single-family residential subdivision being constructed to meet the demand for
housing in this area. The Project is located east of Old Barbour Road and west of Reedy Creek Road in
Four Oaks, Johnston County, NC. Johnston County lists the parcel PIN as 164300-16-2772. The
approximate center of the property is located at Latitude: 35.4985°N; Longitude: 78.5239°W.
Project Detail
The proposed single-family residential subdivision will include construction of roadways, amenities, and
utilities. Access to the development will be provided by two connections to Reedy Creek Road. Water and
wastewater services for the homes will be provided by onsite wells and individual septic. Heavy equipment
typically used for utility installation projects (e.g. back hoes, bull -dozers, etc.) will be utilized.
According to the NCNHP Report updated October 16, 2020, no threatened or endangered species are
present on the Site or within 1.0 mile of the Site.
No historic structures or historic districts are identified as being present on the Site itself or immediately
adjacent to the Site. A cemetery with unmarked graves is located in the southeastern portion of the property
which is currently surrounded by an agricultural field. The cemetery will remain in a separate undeveloped
area within the subdivision.

Project History
The Site has historically been utilized for agriculture and silviculture. Forested areas surround the
drainages. A portion of the Site has been cleared for construction, but no work in Waters of the US has
been initiated. Land use in the vicinity consists of undeveloped, forested land, agricultural land, and rural
residential properties.
Mr. David Gainey and Mr. Sean Clark of Sage Ecological Services, Inc. (Sage) completed a wetland,
stream, and riparian delineation on the majority of the Project area in 2017. A PJD request was submitted
to Sam Dailey of the USACE on June 22, 2017 for the initial Project area and a PJD request was submitted
to Ross Sullivan of the USACE in 2018 for the southeastern portion of the Project that was later added on.
Mr. Ross Sullivan of USACE performed a preliminary jurisdictional determination site meeting on November
9, 2018 for the additional parcel.
An NWP 29 application was submitted on July 8, 2019 (SAW-2017-01300) for the entire Project by another
party. The application was not approved as proposed, and this application is intended as a revision and
update to the previous submittal. Construction has occurred in some upland areas but has not extended to
jurisdictional areas so no impacts have occurred.
Avoidance and Minimization
The proposed homes and roads were realigned from the initial plans so as to minimize impacts to wetlands,
streams, and riparian buffers. Road crossings were designed to cross perpendicular to jurisdictional
features in a further effort to minimize impacts. Construction fencing will be used to define the construction
corridor and prevent any accidental additional impacts, while silt fencing will be installed to provide
additional protection from runoff.
Project Impacts
Proposed permanent wetland impacts total 0.131 acre due to fill from roadway crossings. Temporary
wetland impacts total 0.01 acre due to septic line installation. Areas of temporary wetland impact will be
returned to original grade and the native topsoil from those area reused to provide a seed source for
revegetation.
Proposed permanent stream impacts total 91 linear feet (LF) of which 51 LF will result from culverting for a
roadway crossing. A total of 40 LF of permanent, no loss stream impact results from a riprap dissipator pad
in the stream downstream of the culvert outlet. The culvert bottom will be buried to provide aquatic life
passage as required by the conditions of the permit and general condition. The riprap within the stream and
on the banks will be keyed into the soil material so that the resulting elevation of the riprap material will be
the same as the existing, which will allow for aquatic life passage.
Proposed permanent riparian buffer impacts to Zone 1 total 3,582 sf for a road crossing and 1,185 sf for
stream bank stabilization associated with the road crossing. Permanent Zone 2 impacts total 2,419 sf due
to a road crossing. Total buffer impacts associated with the road crossing total 0.17acre. No other impacts
are proposed.
Mitigation
Permanent wetland impacts are 0.131 acre; therefore, the purchase of wetland mitigation credits at a 2:1
ratio from a bank is proposed. The Statement of Availability Letter from the Neu -Con Wetland & Stream
Umbrella Mitigation Bank - Meadow Spring Site for 0.27 riparian wetland credits is attached. Permanent
stream impacts are less than 150 LF and construction efforts are proposed to lessen the impact and
beveny bubdivision Nage z or j

maintain aquatic life passage; therefore, no stream mitigation is proposed. Riparian buffer impacts are
deemed "Allowable Upon Authorization." No other impacts are proposed.

Supporting Documentation
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation u
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
The initial site plan proposed roads and lots much further west which would have resulted in larger wetland impacts. The site plan has been redrawn a
few times in an effort to reduce and avoid impacts. The currently proposed lots and roads were aligned so as to minimize impacts to wetlands,
streams, and riparian buffers. Road crossings were designed to cross perpendicular to jurisdictional features. Lot fill has been avoided completely.
The road crossing in the vicinity of Impact 2 was repositioned so as to avoid impacting the large wetland area within the drained pond to the east
however the result was the impacts to the upper end of two drainages as well as the drainage below the drained pond but still created less impacts
than if the drained pond was crossed. Construction fencing will be used to define the construction corridor and prevent any accidental additional
impacts, while silt fencing will be installed to provide additional protection from runoff.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
The project will be constructed in phases as opposed to mass grading all at once. This will decrease the potential for sediment runoff into the wetlands
and streams and overall keep the site more stable. General techniques include the use of construction fencing to define the construction corridor and
prevent any accidental additional impacts. Silt fencing will also be used to prevent sediment runoff into the streams.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State

Re Project: Beverly Tract
This document confirms that GHD-Beverly, LLC (Applicant) for the Beverly Tract (Project) has
expressed an interest to utilize 0.27 Riparian Wetland Mitigation Credits from the EBX-Neuse
sponsored Neu -Con Wetland & Stream Umbrella Mitigation Bank, specifically 0.27 from the Meadow
Spring Site in the Neuse HUC 03020201. As the official Bank Sponsor, EBX-Neuse I, LLC, attests to the
fact that mitigation is available for reservation at this time.
These mitigation credits are not considered secured, and consequently are eligible to be used for alternate
purposes by the Bank Sponsor, until payment in full is received from the Applicant resulting in the
issuance of a Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate by the bank acknowledging that the Applicant has
fully secured credits from the bank and the Banker has accepted full responsibility for the mitigation
obligation requiring the credits/units.
The Banker will issue the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate within three (3) days of receipt of the
purchase price. Banker shall provide to Applicant a copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate and
a documented copy of the debit of credits from the Bank Official Credit Ledger(s), indicating the permit
number and the resource type secured by the applicant. A copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer
Certificate, with an updated Official Credit Ledger will also be sent to regulatory agencies showing the
proper documentation.

Re Project: Beverly Tract
This document confirms that GHD-Beverly, LLC (Applicant) for the Beverly Tract (Project) has
expressed an interest to utilize 0.27 Riparian Wetland Mitigation Credits from the EBX-Neuse
sponsored Neu -Con Wetland & Stream Umbrella Mitigation Bank, specifically 0.27 from the Meadow
Spring Site in the Neuse HUC 03020201. As the official Bank Sponsor, EBX-Neuse I, LLC, attests to the
fact that mitigation is available for reservation at this time.
These mitigation credits are not considered secured, and consequently are eligible to be used for alternate
purposes by the Bank Sponsor, until payment in full is received from the Applicant resulting in the
issuance of a Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate by the bank acknowledging that the Applicant has
fully secured credits from the bank and the Banker has accepted full responsibility for the mitigation
obligation requiring the credits/units.
The Banker will issue the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate within three (3) days of receipt of the
purchase price. Banker shall provide to Applicant a copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate and
a documented copy of the debit of credits from the Bank Official Credit Ledger(s), indicating the permit
number and the resource type secured by the applicant. A copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer
Certificate, with an updated Official Credit Ledger will also be sent to regulatory agencies showing the
proper documentation.
If any questions need to be answered, please contact me at 919-209-1075.

RE: Beverly Subdivision; 2017.33
Dear Sean Clark:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide
information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
Based on the project area mapped with your request, a query of the NCNHP database indicates that
there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, and/or
conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there
may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not
imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query
should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare
species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our
records.
The attached 'Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that
have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these
records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area
if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one -mile
radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report.
If a Federally -listed species is found within the project area or is indicated within a one -mile radius of
the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) for
guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here:
httl2s://www.fws.aov/offices/Directory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation
planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria
for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published
without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information
source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission.
The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a
Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Clean Water Management Trust Fund
easement, or Federally -listed species are documented near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance,
please contact Rodney A. Butler at rod ney.butlerCo)ncdcr.aov or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program
