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
fmancial 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 sewer alignment corridor was located to minimize impacts to wetlands and stream buffers. Crossings
are perpendicular to the stream bed. Temporary impacts to streams and wetlands will be minimized by
strict adherence to Nationwide Permit #12 Conditions and NCDENR GC 3374. Crossings of perennial
streams have been minimized to the extent feasible.
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.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.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
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.

Riprap may only be used below the normal high water level. The stream berm must be restored to the original contours after
construction;
f. That appropriate sedimentation and erosion control practices which equal or exceed those outlined in the "North
Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual" or "North Carolina Surface Mining Manual" are
utilized to prevent exceedances of the appropriate turbidity water quality standards (50 NTUs in streams and rivers not
designated as trout waters by NCDWQ; and all lakes and reservoirs; and 10 NTUs in trout waters);
g. All sedimentation and erosion control measures placed in wetlands shall be removed and the natural grade restored
after the Division of Land resources has released the project;
h. Annual species suitable for wet locations shall be planted within jurisdictional wetlands for soil and erosion control.
Perennials such as fescue are prohibited;
No fertilizer shall be applied within 10 feet of streams;
j. The construction corridor (including access roads and stockpiling of materials) is limited to 40 feet in width in
wetlands and must be minimized to the maximum extent practicable.
k. Permanent, maintained access corridors shall be restricted to the minimum width practicable and shall not exceed 10
feet in width except at manhole locations. A 10 feet by 10 feet perpendicular vehicle turnaround must be spaced at least 500
feet apart.
1. An anti-seep collar (See detail) shall be placed at the downstream (utility line gradient) wetland boundary and every
150 feet up the gradient until the utility exits the wetland for buried utility lines. Anti-seep collars may be constructed with
Class B concrete, compacted clay, PVC pipe, or metal collars. Wetland crossings that are directionally drilled, and
perpendicular wetland crossings that are open cut and less than 150 feet (45.7 meters) long do not require anti-seep collars.
The compacted clay shall have a specific discharge of 1 X 10 -5 cm/sec or less. A section and plan view diagram is attached
for the anti-seep collars.

m. This general certification does not authorize any permanent changes in preconstruction elevation contours in waters
or wetlands. The permitee will have a specific plan for restoring wetland contours. Any excess material will be removed to a
high ground disposal areas;
n. Compensatory mitigation (i.e., restoration, creation or preservation) for wetland losses will not be required for this
Certification if written concurrence is not needed.
o. Written concurrence is required if the maintenance corridor is greater than 10 feet wide.
p. This certification does not relieve the applicant of the responsibility to obtain all other required Federal, State, or
local approval.
Non-compliance with or violation of the conditions herein set forth by a specific fill project shall result in revocation of this
Certification for the project and may also result in criminal and/or civil penalties. The Director of the NCDWQ may require
submission of a formal application for Individual Certification for any project in this category of activity, if it is determined
that the project is likely to have a significant adverse effect upon water quality or degrade the waters so that existing uses of
the wetland or downstream waters are precluded. Public hearings may be held for specific applications or group of
applications prior to a certification decision if deemed in the public's best interest by the Director of the NCDWQ.
Additional USACE Regional Conditions to Nationwide Permit 12 (Applicable to this project)
- Temporary placement of excavated or fill material in waters and wetlands will be for the absolute minimum period
of time necessary to accomplish the work.
- Each individual crossing will be stabilized immediately with native vegetation. Stabilizing with non-native grasses
(i.e., fescue, etc.) is prohibited
- Anti-seep collars must be installed at no greater than 150-foot intervals on all sewer and drain
lines placed in wetlands, and all utility lines must be installed to prevent drainage of wetlands (i.e., no French drain"
construction, etc.)
- The total width of the access corridor excavation and temporary fill area (including mechanized land clearing) is
restricted to no more than 40 feet and must be minimized to the extent practicable.
Restoration Plans in Wetland Areas
Clearing in Waters of the U.S. shall be minimized to the extent feasible - up to 40' only as necessary to facilitate safe
construction. As required, the topsoil shall be saved through the disturbed wetland areas, and the top 6" to 12" of the trench
should be backfilled with this topsoil to encourage rapid re-establishment of previous vegetation conditions. Excess material
must be removed to upland areas immediately upon completion of construction. An annual species suitable for wet locations
will be planted within jurisdictional wetlands for soil and erosion control. Perennials such as fescue will not be specified in
wetland areas. Anti-seep collars shall be used to prevent wetland draining.
Grassing Specification
Disturbed wetland areas shall be stabilized with annual small grains that will initially stabilize the soils and then allow the
natural vegetation to become re-established. For stabilization, outside the optimum planting windows, using a mixture of
species on either side of the window may increase chances of a good stand. Germination will be most difficult in the
December -February period. For wetland stabilization during this period, it will be necessary to be sure those wetlands are
well mulched. Annual lespedeza could be added to any planting mixtures during this period because it will germinate during
the first warm days of spring.

Page 12 of 13

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
Water Quali Protection
Purpose.
The purpose of this regulation is to establish storm water management requirements
and controls to prevent surface water quality degradation to the extent practicable in
the streams and lakes within the Town Limits and Extraterritorial Jurisdiction of
Huntersville and to protect and safeguard the general health, safety, and welfare of
Huntersville's residents. This regulation seeks to meet this purpose by fulfilling the
following objectives:
a) Minimize increases in storm water runoff from development or redevelopment
in order to reduce flooding, siltation and streambank erosion, and maintain the
integrity of stream channels;
b) Minimize increases in non-point source pollution caused by storm water
runoff from development or redevelopment that would otherwise degrade
local water quality;
c) Minimize the total volume of surface water runoff that flows from any
specific site during and following development in order to replicate pre-
development hydrology to the maximum extent practicable;
d) Reduce storm water runoff rates and volumes, soil erosion and non-point
source pollution, to the extent practicable, through storm water management
controls (BMPs) and to ensure that these management controls are properly
maintained and pose no threat to public health or safety; and
e) Meet the requirements of the National Pollution Discharge Elimination
System (NPDES) Storm Water Permit and other requirements as established
by the Clean Water Act.
This regulation and the Huntersville Water Quality Design Manual encourage the
use of Low Impact Development (LID) practices, which more closely replicate a
site's predevelopment characteristics compared to conventional storm water
management techniques.
2 Applicability.
This regulation shall apply to all of the land located within the Town Limits and
Extraterritorial Jurisdiction of Huntersville. The effective date of this regulation is
February 17, 2003. This regulation governs the development and use of all land
and structures. No building, structure, or land shall be used, occupied or altered,
and no building, structure, or part thereof shall be erected, constructed,
reconstructed, moved, enlarged, or structurally altered, unless in conformity with all

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
the provisions of this regulation and all other applicable regulations, except as
otherwise provided by this regulation.
.3 Exceptions to Applicability.
a) All properties shall be subject to this regulation except those properties which,
as of the effective date of February 17, 2003, fit into one of the following
categories:
(i) Have been issued a Certificate of Building Code Compliance;
(ii) Have a valid building permit; or
(iii) Are included on a valid preliminary subdivision plan and/or a valid
sketch plan.
b) New development, redevelopment or expansions that include the creation or
addition of less than 5,000 square feet of new impervious area, provided they
are not part of a larger subdivision plan, are not subject to the provisions of
this regulation.
.4 Definitions.
For the purposes of this Ordinance, the following words and phrases shall be
defined as specified below:
Best Management Practices (BMPs). A structural or nonstructural management
based practice used singularly or in combination to reduce non-point source input to
receiving waters in order to achieve water quality protection goals.
- Non-structural BMPs -Non-engineering methods to control the amount
of non-point source pollution. These may include land-use controls and
vegetated buffers.
- Structural BMPs -Engineered structures that are designed to reduce the
delivery of pollutants from their source or to divert contaminants away
from a waterbody.
Detain. To store and slowly release storm water runoff following precipitation by
means of a surface depression or tank and an outlet structure. Detention structures
are commonly used for pollutant removal, water storage, and peak flow reduction.
Hydrolo~ic Abstractions. Physical processes of interception of rainfall or overland
storm water flow by vegetation, evaporation from land surfaces and upper soil
layers, transpiration by plants, infiltration of water into soil surfaces, and storage of
water in surface depressions.
Low Impact Development (LID). The integration of site ecology and

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
environmental goals and requirements into all phases of urban planning and design
from the individual residential lot level to the entire watershed.
Mecklenburg County Land Use and Environmental Services Agency. The
department or division of Mecklenburg County government (regardless of the title
given to it by Mecklenburg County) which has responsibility for storm water and
water quality matters, acting as the agent of the Town of Huntersville for various
purposes in connection with the enforcement of this regulation.
National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) Permit. A permit
issued pursuant to the federal Clean Water Act for the purpose of controlling
discharges of pollutants to surface waters and protecting water quality. In North
Carolina, NPDES Permits are issued by the N.C. Department of Environment and
Natural Resources.
Non-Point Source (NPS) Pollution. Forms of pollution caused by sediment,
nutrients, organic and toxic substances originating from land use activities and
carried to lakes and streams by surface runoff.
Retain. To capture and hold storm water runoff following precipitation by means of
surface depression allowing the water to infiltrate into the soil, thus reducing the
hydrologic and pollution impacts downstream. Retention structures are commonly
used for pollutant removal, water storage, and peak flow reduction.
Site Evaluation Tool (SET). A spreadsheet-based model that assesses and
compares pre-development and post-development runoff, infiltration, and pollutant
loading rates, which provides a methodology to aid in better site design and
evaluation of BMP effectiveness.
Total Suspended Solids (TSS). Total suspended matter in water, which is
commonly expressed as a concentration in terms of milligrams per liter (mg/1) or
parts per million (ppm).
Huntersville Water Quality Design Manual.
The Mecklenburg County Land Use and Environmental Services Agency shall
furnish, maintain and update a Water Quality Design Manual for the Town of
Huntersville containing additional policy, criteria and information that shall be
followed for the proper implementation of the requirements of this Ordinance.
BMPs that are designed and constructed in accordance with the criteria contained in
this Manual shall be accepted as meeting the minimum Performance Criteria
specified in Section 8.17.6.
6 Performance Criteria.

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
Land development activities shall be performed in such a manner as to minimize the
degradation of water quality conditions through compliance with the Performance
Criteria listed below. Section 6 of the Huntersville Water Quality Design Manual
contains a description of approved BMPs for meeting each of these Criteria.
a) All storm water treatment systems used to meet these Performance Criteria
shall be designed to achieve average annual 85% Total Suspended Solids
(TSS) removal for the developed area of a site. Areas designated as open
space that are not developed do not require storm water treatment. All sites
must employ LID practices to control and treat runoff from the first inch of
rainfall.
b) LID practices or a combination of LID and conventional storm water
management practices shall be used to control and treat the increase in storm
water runoff volume associated with post-construction conditions as compared
with pre-construction (existing) conditions for the 2-year frequency, 24-hour
duration storm event in the Rural and Transitional Zoning Districts. For all
other Zoning Districts, LID practices or a combination of LID and
conventional storm water management practices shall be used to control and
treat the increase in storm water runoff volume associated with post-
construction conditions as compared with pre-construction (existing)
conditions for the 1-year frequency, 24-hour duration storm event. This may
be achieved by hydrologic abstraction, recycling and/or reuse, or other
accepted management practice as described in Section 6 of the Huntersville
Water Quality Design Manual.
c) Where any storm water BMP employs the use of a temporary water quality
storage pool as a part of its treatment system, the drawdown time shall be a
minimum of 48 hours and a maximum of 120 hours.
d) Peak storm water runoff rates shall be controlled for all development above
12% imperviousness. The peak storm water runoff release rates leaving the
site during post-construction conditions shall be equal to or less than the pre-
development peak storm water runoff release rates for the 2-year frequency,
24-hour duration storm event and 10-year frequency, 24-hour duration storm
event. The emergency overflow and outlet works for any pond or wetland
constructed as a storm water BMP shall be capable of safely passing a
discharge with a minimum recurrence frequency of 50 years. For detention
basins, the temporary storage capacity shall be restored within 72 hours.
Requirements of the Dam Safety Act shall be met when applicable.
e) No one BMP shall receive runoff from an area greater than five (5) acres.
However, the total drainage area from BMPs used in series (i.e., integrated)
can exceed this five (5) acre maximum.
Low Impact Development (LID).

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
The Performance Criteria discussed in Section 8.17.6 shall be achieved using LID
site planning and techniques or a combination of LID and conventional storm water
management practices. The goal of LID is to develop site design techniques,
strategies, and BMPs to store, infiltrate, evaporate, retain, and detain runoff on the
site to more closely replicate pre-development runoff characteristics and to better
mimic the natural and unique hydrology of the site thereby limiting the increase in
pollutant loads caused by development. The selection of these strategies and
techniques for compliance with the Performance Criteria in Section 8.17.6 is
discretionary and shall be detailed in a Water Quality Management Plan submitted
during the preliminary plan review process. Specific requirements regarding the
design, installation and maintenance of LID structures and a discussion of LID site
planning is contained in the Huntersville Water Quality Design Manual.
.8 Plan Submittal and Review.
a) Sketch Plans. Preliminary sketch plans shall contain the information
necessary to evaluate the proposed development site for compliance with
Performance Criteria as detailed in Section 9 of the Huntersville Water
Quality Design Manual.
b) Site Evaluation Tool. Site Evaluation Tool (SET) output shall be submitted
along with sketch plans for each proposed development site. Section 9 of the
Huntersville Water Quality Design Manual contains detailed information
concerning the submission requirements for SET.
c) Water Quality Management Plan. A Water Quality Management Plan shall be
submitted along with preliminary plans for each proposed development. The
Plan shall demonstrate compliance with Section 8.17.6, Performance Criteria,
unless otherwise exempted. The Plan shall contain SET outputs, supporting
computations, drawings, soil analyses, calculations for each BMP, and overall
site hydrology calculations as well as other information sufficient to describe
the manner, location, and type of measures for managing storm water from the
development in compliance with Section 8.17.6. In addition, the Plan shall
specify those parties responsible for long-term maintenance of all BMPs.
Section 9 of the Huntersville Water Quality Design Manual contains specific
submission requirements. The Mecklenburg County Land Use and
Environmental Services Agency shall review the Plan to determine
compliance with the Performance Criteria listed in Section 8.17.6. Approval
of the Water Quality Management Plan by the Mecklenburg County Land Use
and Environmental Services Agency is required prior to the initiation of land
disturbing activities and said Plan shall serve as the basis for all subsequent
construction.
d) Adjustments of Information Requirements. Information requirements maybe
adjusted by the Zoning Administrator or designee for a particular development

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
application upon written request of the applicant, provided at least one of the
following circumstances can be demonstrated:
(i) Alternative measures for on-site and/or offsite management of storm
water have been proposed and these measures are approved for
compliance with the Performance Criteria in Section 8.17.6.
(ii) It is otherwise demonstrated that the proposed development will not
produce any significant change to the existing, pre-development stream
or site hydrology and pollutant loading.
9 Incentives.
a) Purpose. The purpose of this Section is to set forth incentives to offset
restrictions that LID may have on the development of certain sites.
b) Setbacks. In order to accommodate water quality BMPs, required setbacks,
side yards and rear yards in the Rural and Transitional Zoning Districts may
be reduced up to 25%. The reductions may not compromise public safety
such as the site distance triangles as defined by this Zoning Ordinance.
c) Sidewalks. To reduce impervious cover and promote LID, sidewalks on one
side of the street may be waived in the Rural Zoning District.
d) Required Plant Reduction and Substitution. In order to accommodate water
quality BMPs, the number of planted trees may be reduced in buffer yards by
10%. 50% of the required trees may be 1.5 inches in caliper, and all shrubs
may be 24 inches in height.
e) Encroachments. Water quality BMPs may encroach into a required buffer
yard as long as the encroachment does not disturb existing vegetation. Minor
understory may be disturbed in order to accommodate water quality
structures. Trees and shrubs shall be placed to maximize screening where the
encroachment takes place. If the encroachment runs parallel to the buffer, the
width of the buffer shall be increased by the amount of the encroachment.
10 Appeals and Variances.
An appeal to reverse or modify the order, decision, determination, or interpretation
of the Huntersville Zoning Administrator or any other designated administrative
officer shall comply with the procedures and standards of Section 11.3 of these
regulations.
.11 Posting of Financial Security.

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
Approval of a Water Quality Management Plan shall be subject to the owner filing
a surety bond or letter of credit or making other financial arrangements in favor of
Mecklenburg County as agent for the Town of Huntersville acceptable to the
Mecklenburg County Land Use and Environmental Services Agency guaranteeing
the installation and maintenance of required BMPs until the issuance of certificates
of occupancy for seventy-five percent (75%) of all construction which might
reasonably be anticipated to be built within the area which drains into the BMP,
allowing credit for improvements completed prior to the submission of the fmal
plat. At such time that this level of occupancy is achieved, written notice thereof
shall be submitted by the owner to the Mecklenburg County Land Use and
Environmental Services Agency. The owner shall verify the adequacy of the
Maintenance Covenant for the BMPs including the necessary financing to support
the proposed maintenance practices. The owner shall also provide professional
engineer certification that the BMP is designed and constructed in accordance with
approved plans and specifications. The Mecklenburg County Land Use and
Environmental Services Agency will inspect the structural BMP and verify the
effectiveness of the Maintenance Covenant and, if both are found to be satisfactory,
the Mecklenburg County Land Use and Environmental Services Agency will notify
the owner in writing within 30 days of the date of notice regarding approval of the
BMP. Following the issuance of this written approval, the owner can request the
release of the surety bond, letter of credit or other financial arrangements at which
time the maintenance responsibilities for the BMPs shall revert to the Homeowners
Association, property owner or other party responsible for long term maintenance
as specified in the Maintenance Covenant. It shall be expressly stated within the
restrictive covenants or homeowners association documents that it will be the
responsibility of the owner or assigns to maintain BMPs until such time as
maintenance responsibilities have been transferred to the Homeowners Association
Board of Directors, property owner or other party responsible for long term
maintenance of the BMPs. It shall be the sole responsibility of the owner or assigns
to correct any deficiencies prior to said transfer of maintenance responsibilities.
.12 Final Plat Requirements.
The exact boundary of all water quality best management practices shall be shown
on final plats prepared by a registered surveyor. Also, these plats shall contain the
following statement: "This lot contains a water quality feature that must be
maintained in accordance with the recorded Maintenance Covenant as specified in
Section 8.17.13(a) of the Huntersville Zoning Ordinance."
13 Maintenance.
BMPs that are constructed on privately-owned land and that are not within a public
easement shall be maintained by a Homeowners Association or the owner of the
subject property. BMPs that are constructed on public land within public rights-of-
way, and/or within public easements shall be maintained by the public body with
ownership/jurisdiction of the subject property. The following requirements shall be

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
met for all BMPs that have been constructed on privately-owned property and not
within a public easement. .
a) Maintenance Covenants. Prior to the issuance of an Occupancy Permit for
any building within a permitted development served by a BMP, the applicant
or owner of the BMP shall establish a formal Maintenance Covenant approved
by the Mecklenburg County Land Use and Environmental Services Agency
and recorded in the Office of the Register of Deeds in which the owner
acknowledges the duty of the owner and all subsequent owners of the property
to maintain the BMP in accordance with the terms of the covenant. A
maintenance plan and schedule shall be included as part of the covenant as
well as a mechanism for funding maintenance and repairs. This Maintenance
Covenant shall also specify the Homeowners Association or other party
responsible for maintenance of the BMP. A Homeowners Association or
similar legal entity has the power to compel contributions from residents of a
development to cover their proportionate shares of the costs associated with
BMP maintenance.
b) Requirements for the Maintenance Covenants. BMPs shall be periodically
inspected as described in the Maintenance Covenant to identify maintenance
and repair needs and to ensure compliance with the requirements of these
regulations. Any identified maintenance and/or repair needs shall be
addressed in a timely manner. The inspection and maintenance requirement
may be increased as deemed necessary by the Mecklenburg County Land Use
and Environmental Services Agency to ensure proper functioning of the BMP.
c) Records of Installation and Maintenance Activities. Parties responsible for
the inspection, operation, and maintenance of a BMP shall make records of
the installation of all the maintenance and repairs and shall retain the records
for at least five years. Those records shall be made available to the
Mecklenburg County Land Use and Environmental Services Agency upon
request and/or as specifically outlined in the Maintenance Covenant.
d) Failure to Maintain Practices. It is unlawful for a property owner to fail to
meet the requirements of the Maintenance Covenant. Any person or
association that fails to meet the requirements of the Maintenance Covenant
shall be subject to a civil penalty payable to the Town of Huntersville of not
more than $500. Each day that the violation continues shall constitute a
separate violation. No penalties shall be assessed until the person alleged to
be in violation has been notified in writing of the violation by registered or
certified mail, return receipt requested, or by other means which are
reasonably calculated to give actual notice. The notice shall describe the
nature of the violation. with reasonable particularity, specify a reasonable time
period within which the violation must be corrected, and warn that failure to
correct the violation within the time period will result in assessment of a civil
penalty or other enforcement action. In the event that a BMP becomes a

Water Quality Protection Regulation FINAL 1/27/03
danger to public safety or public health, the Mecklenburg County Land Use
and Environmental Services Agency, after reasonable notice as described
above, may seek a mandatory or prohibitory injunction and order of abatement
commanding the property owner to correct a violation of the design criteria
standards or maintenance needs contained in the Maintenance Covenants by
performing all necessary work to place the BMP in proper working condition.
If the property owner fails to take corrective action as ordered by the Court,
the Town of Huntersville may seek an order holding the property owner in
contempt of court and for authority to execute the order of abatement by
taking the corrective action. If the Town of Huntersville executes the order of
abatement it shall have a lien upon the property for the cost of executing the
order of abatement.
.14 Inspection of BMPs.
a) Inspections. Inspections shall be conducted as prescribed by the Maintenance
Covenant. Additional inspections may be conducted by the Mecklenburg
County Land Use and Environmental Services Agency on any reasonable
basis, including but not limited to: routine inspections; random inspections;
inspections based upon complaints or other notice of possible violations;
inspections of drainage basins or areas identified as higher than typical
sources of sediment or other contaminants or pollutants; inspections of
businesses or industries of a type associated with higher than usual
dischargers of contaminants or pollutants or with discharges of a type which
are more likely than the typical discharge to cause violations of State or
Federal water quality standards or the NPDES Storm Water Permit; and joint
inspections with other agencies inspecting under environmental and safety
laws. Inspections may include, but are not limited to: reviewing maintenance
and repair records; sampling discharges, surface water, groundwater, and
material or water in BMPs; evaluating the condition of BMPs and storm water
management practices.
b) Right-of--Entry for Inspection. When any new BMP is installed on private
property, the property owner shall grant to the Mecklenburg County Land Use
and Environmental Services Agency the right to enter the property at
reasonable times and in a reasonable manner for the purpose of inspection.
'This includes the right to enter a property when the Mecklenburg County
Land Use and Environmental Services Agency has a reasonable basis to
believe that a violation of this regulation is occurring or has occurred, and to
enter when necessary for abatement of a public nuisance or correction of a
violation of this regulation.

Based on velocitycalculations
1. Overlay property lines onto topographic map.
2. Make a preliminary layout, minimizing the number of parcels involved and
paralleling property lines where possible. Avoid obvious construction problems
where possible.
3. If the average daily flow is greater than 1 MGD and the project is greater than 3
miles in length, an environmental assessment is required. If there is
evidence of wet areas, or if any project area is shown on Mecklenburg County
wetland inventory maps, a wetlands delineation is required. These should be
scheduled early in the project in order that they can be considered in route
selection.
4. Where an Environmental Assessment is required, obtain input from the person or
firm conducting the Environmental Assessment. Minimize environmental
..damage (wetlands, unnecessary stream crossings, damage to tree canopy over
streams, etc.)
5. If the proposed route crosses or parallels a roadway, get all other utilities,
including other CMUD facilities, located.. Consider the NCDOT requirements for
encroachments in selecting the route.

Cane Creek Outfall SSL
Cane Creek Outfall Sanitary Sewer Line
Threatened and Endangered Species Survey -Terrestrial
Physical Setting:
The Cane Creek Outfall Sanitary Sewer Line (SSL) will follow Cane Creek from
the future Hambright Road Extension traversing north-northeast to just west of
Asbury Chapel Road, a distance of approximately 2.6 miles, in northeastern
Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. This alignment can be found on the
Cornelius USGS Topographic Quadrangle Map; at the midpoint of the alignment
the latitude is 035° 23" 20"' N, longitude is 080° 48" 58"" W.
The topography consists of flat floodplain and gentle to moderate slopes, with the
elevation ranging from 650 ft. to 690 ft. (Figure 1).

r
Cane Creek Outfall SSL
Methods:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage online database was searched for species
of concern known to occur in the Cornelius USGS Quad (Table 1). There are
three plant species with a Federal Status listed for this Quad. There is one plant
species listed as F (Federally Endangered) for this Quad and that is Schweinitz's
Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzil~. This species occupies open, disturbed
habitat and is known to occur on roadsides and power line rights-of-way
(PLROW). There is a previously known population of this species on a small
PLROW on nearby Trails End Road. There is one plant species listed as C
(Candidate) Georgia Aster (Aster georgianus) which also requires open disturbed
habitat as does Bird-foot Trefoil listed as FSC (Federal Species of Concern).The
entire corridor was walked to search for the presence of these species.
* There are two aquatic animal species with a Federal Status listed for this
Quad: Carolina Creekshell (Villosa vaughaniana) (FSC) a freshwater
mussel, and Carolina Darter (Efheostoma collis) (FSC) a fish. If the
presence of these species needs to be determined a separate aquatic
study of this reach of Cane Creek will need to be conducted.

Cane Creek Outfall SSL
Results:
This proposed SSL corridor passes through many different landowners property
with many different land uses, therefore there is a mosaic of different habitat
conditions. Overall, most of the alignment passes through the floodplain woods
in the riparian corridor of the creek. Some properties have been timbered in part.
Some areas in the corridor are residential lawns. There are also several small
power line rights-of-way (PLROW) and two relatively large- PLROW which appear
to be managed with herbicide and bush hogging. The areas where the corridor
crosses these PLROW were closely investigated for the three plant species of
concern because this is the specific habitat type these species occupy.
The floodplain woods are the main habitat type the SSL alignment will pass
through. The average diameter at breast height (DBH) of the canopy trees is 12
inches with some larger trees up to 2'/2 feet DBH. Canopy species present
include Sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), Sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua),
American Elm.(Ulmus americans), Tulip Poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera),
Mockernut Hickory (Carya tomentosa), Hackberry (Celtis laevigata), Black
Walnut (Juglans nigra), Red Maple (Acer rubrum), River Birch (Betula nigra), and
Beech (Fagus grandifolia).
Subcanopy species present include Ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), Winged
Elm (U/mus slats) Box Elder Maple (Acer negundo), Umbrella Tree (Magnolia
tripetela), and Black Cherry (Prunus serotina).
Shrubs: Blackberry (Rubus sp.), Elderberry (Sambucus canadensis), Spicebush
(Cinders benzoin), Chinese Privet (Ligustrum sinense), Hazelnut (Corylus
americans), Buckeye (Aescu/us sylvatica) and Silky Dogwood (Cornus
amomum).
Common vines present include Japanese Honeysuckle (Lonicera japonica),
Catbriar (Smilax sp.), Poison Ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), Crossvine (Bignonia
capreolata), and Virginia Creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia).
Herbs present are Wild Onion (Allium sp.), Puttyroot (Aplectrum hyemale), and
Wild Ginger (Hexastylis sp.)
The PLROW support ascrub/shrub/herb complex that appears to be managed
by mowing and hericiding. Saplings present include Short-leaf Pine (Pinus
echinata), Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana), Sweetgum (Liquidambar
styraciflua). The shrub layer is dominated by Blackberry (Rubus sp.). Herbs
present include Broomsedge (Andropogon virginicus), Small Wood Sunflower
(Helianthus microcephalus), Coneflower (Rudbeckia laciniata), Mountainmint
(Pycnanthemum sp.), Plume Grass (Erianthus contortus), Wooly Mullein
(Verbascum thapsus), Dog Fennel (Eupatorium capillifolium), Love grass
(Eragrostis sp.), Bull Thistle (Cirsium sp.), Panic Grass (Panicum sp.), and

MANAGEMENT SUMMARY
The archaeological survey of the proposed Cane Creek sewer line and revised corridor
covered approximately 3.5 miles in length near Huntersville in northern Mecklenburg County,
North Carolina. The purpose of the survey was to examine the project area for prehistoric or
historical archaeological sites with significant remains that might be eligible for nomination to
the National Register of Historic Places.
Since the entire project area is forested, the survey relied heavily on screened shovel
tests at intervals of 30 m (100 feet). In areas with exposed ground surfaces (plowed fields,
logging roads, farm roads, tree falls, bore hole tests, etc.), the surveyors closely examined the
exposed areas for prehistoric and historic artifacts.
The survey recorded one prehistoric site. The site appears in the following table with
its site number, a brief description of the site and its research potential, and our opinion as to
whether the site should be considered eligible for nomination to the National Register of
Historic Places:
