Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It maybe 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 Updated 11/1/2005 Page 9 of 13 techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. The Dare County Zoning Ordinance requires a minimum drive aisle width of 24 feet for the proposed use 0 077 acres of Section 404 wetlands must be filled on both the north and south side of the existin ravel access roadway in order to create the proposed gravel access road and to create stormwater mans ement features. The Dare County Health Department requires that the site be filled for the proposed on site wastewater system. The site must also be filled to gain elevation for flood zone purposes and to comply with the NODE&NR DWO regulations for stormwater management A Hi h Density Stormwater Permlt will be souallt from the NODE&NR DWO This plan will be desi ed to mmlmize impacts to surface waters of the State A Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan ~SESCP) will be obtained from the NCDE&NR LQS which will be compliant with the Sedlmentation Pollution Control Act of 1973. This SESCP will act to minimize im acts to the remaining on site wetlands through the use of a silt fence and the required and appro riate seedma of all disturbed areas at the conclusion of each stage of grading_ 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. USAGE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, 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 USAGE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP 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 Updated 11/1/2005 Page 10 of 13 description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. N/A 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form.
