III. Project Information
Attach a vicinity map clearly showing the location of the property with respect to local
landmarks such as towns, rivers, and roads. Also provide a detailed site plan showing property
boundaries and development plans in relation to surrounding properties. Both the vicinity map
and site plan must include a scale and north arrow. The specific footprints of all buildings,
impervious surfaces, or other facilities must be included. If possible, the maps and plans should
include the appropriate USGS Topographic Quad Map and NRCS Soil Survey with the property
boundaries outlined. Plan drawings, or other maps may be included at the applicant's discretion,
so long as the property is clearly defined. For administrative and distribution purposes, the
USACE requires information to be submitted on sheets no larger than 11 by 17-inch format;
however, DWQ may accept paperwork of any size. DWQ prefers full-size construction
drawings rather than a sequential sheet version of the full-size plans. If full-size plans are
reduced to a small scale such that the final version is illegible, the applicant will be informed that
the project has been placed on hold until decipherable maps are provided.
1. Name of project: Cedar Ridge Subdivision Phase II
2. T.LP. Project Number or State Project Number (NCDOT Only):
3. Property Identification Number (Tax PIN): 1768-07-3234
4. Location
County: Wake Nearest Town: Rolesville
Subdivision name (include phase/lot number): Cedar Ridge
Directions to site (include road numbers/names, landmarks, etc.): Site is located on
Rolesville_R_oad approximately'/4 mile south of downtown Rolesville and US401.
5. Site coordinates (For linear projects, such as a road or utility line, attach a sheet that
separately lists the coordinates for each crossing of a distinct waterbody.)
Decimal Degrees (6 digits minimum): 35.5474 °N 78.2746 °W
6. Property size (acres): 70.07 Acres
7. Name of nearest receiving body of water: Harris Creek
8. River Basin: Neuse
(Note -this must be one of North Carolina's seventeen designated major river basins. The
River Basin map is available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/admin/maps/.)
9. Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project
at the time of this application: Site is comprised of an existing subdivision (phase 1)
adjacent to Rolesville Road and a pond on the east side of Phase I. Harris Creek
was determined to be a perennial stream below the pond on Phase I. No subject
streams were evident above the pond. Remaining Phase II is mostly wooded with
Page 2 of 10

one pond, Harris Creek, and its tributaries. Adjacent land uses include residential,
forested and agricultural areas.
10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: Three
road crossings are proposed to access upland areas at the rear of the property and
provide connectivity to the northern parcel. All lots to have county water and sewer.
Equipment to be used includes cranes, trackhoes, bulldozers, and other land
grading equipment.
Western Virginia Water Drive: A 74-feet Con-Span Bridge Bottomless Arched
Culvert will be utilized for this stream crossing. The 25-foot (span) x 10-foot (rise)
with headwalls will maximize daylight penetration for maximum vegetation success
along with no stream disturbance. Temporary stream impacts will "not" be needed
since installation can be accomplished from both sides. QORE Property Sciences
conducted a geologic study of the stream area. Please refer to the April 12, 2007
Subsurface Details. As shown in the Depth to Refusal Probe Data, bedrock was
within 2.3-feet of the stream bed. Please refer to Sheet 19 for details.
Eastern Virginia Water Drive: A 74-foot 42-inch RCP is proposed for this crossing_
Please refer to Sheet 19 for details. As shown in Cross Section Detail the culvert
will be buried 10-inches. We were able to minimize stream & buffer impacts by
utilizing keystone retaining walls.
Irina Drive: A 75-feet Con-Span Bridge Bottomless Arched Culvert will be utilized
for this stream crossing. Please refer to Sheet 25 for details.
11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The proposed impacts to the stream buffer
area will be necessary to complete the subdivision, thus sustaining the development
of the proposed residential area. Extending Virginia Water Drive across Harris
Creek and its tributary will also provide connectivity to the adjacent parcels and
existing neighborhoods.
IV. Prior Project History
If jurisdictional determinations and/or permits have been requested and/or obtained for this
project (including all prior phases of the same subdivision) in the past, please explain. Include
the USACE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and
certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits,
certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and
buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project,
list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.I.P. project, along with
construction schedules. December 6, 2006: Keller Environmental (KE), on behalf of Mr.
Robert Polanco, submitted a PCN application to the US Army Corps of Engineers and
NC Division of Water Quality.
January 16, 2007 Conducted an on-site stream determination with DWQ staff Lia Myott
and Dr. Cynthia Van Der Wiele.

V. Future Project Plans
Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work,
and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application.
None.
VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be
listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from
riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts,
permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an
accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial)
should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems.
Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate.
Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for
wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional
space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts:
Eastern Virginia Water Drive: The stream crossing will involve 74-feet of a single
42-inch diameter RCP. To facilitate aquatic passage, 10-inches of the RCP will be
buried. Please refer to Sheet 19 for details.
Irina Drive: The stream crossing will involve a 75-feet Con-Span Bridge Bottomless
Arched Culvert. Please refer to Sheet 25 for details.
2. Individually list wetland impacts. Types of impacts include, but are not limited to
mechanized clearing, grading, fill, excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams,
senarately list impacts due to hnth structure and flnndin~.

None
Total Wetland Impact (acres) 0
3. List the total acreage (estimated) of all existing wetlands on the property: 2 Acres
4. Individually list all intermittent and perennial stream impacts. Be sure to identify temporary
impacts. Stream impacts include, but are not limited to placement of fill or culverts, dam
construction, flooding, relocation, stabilization activities (e.g., cement walls, rip-rap, crib
walls, gabions, etc.), excavation, ditching/straightening, etc. If stream relocation is proposed,
plans and profiles showing the linear footprint for both the original and relocated streams
must be included. To calculate acreage, multiply length X width, then divide by 43,560.

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 proposed Virginia Water
Drive Extension crossings were strategically placed to connect with the subdivision to
the west and the large upland area between it and Phase I. The Irina Drive Extension
will provide access to the upland areas to the area north of Harris Creek. The crossings
were also placed perpendicular in fairly linear stream corridors. A Con-Span bottomless
arched culvert (CSBAC) will be utilized on the Western Virginia Water Drive Crossing.
This area contained geologically suitable streams to avoid stream impacts.
The Irina Drive CSBAC is 75 linear feet and the 12-foot span will clearly span the entire
6-feet wide stream bed and bank Also it was evident during our January 16, 2006 site
visit that the crossing area appeared to be a historic stream crossing for agriculture and
silvaculture activities Our perennial stream determination was conducted within and
immediately upstream of the proposed crossing area.
The eastern Virginia Water Drive 42-inch RCP is 74 linear feet and the RCP will be
buried 10-inches to facilitate aquatic passage During our perennial stream
determination we entered the subject riparian corridor from the existing Virginia Water
Drive end of pavement and walked upstream via the existing sewer line on the west
side to the existing pond and sewer crossing area. It was evident during our analysis
that the stream in the proposed crossing area is slightly incised.
The western Virginia Water Drive CSBAC will span 74-feet. This crossing area is also
being utilized for utilities (i a sewer etc.) to avoid additional impacts. Similar to the
aforementioned culverts and evident on the Overall Site Plan this stream crossing is
being placed in a fairly linear stream section. It will provide connectivity to the existing
Virginia Water Drive and the Village of Rolesville (Phase II) Subdivision on the west
side As shown in the geologic report bedrock is within 2.3 feet of the stream bed.
The wide spans will be placed by using a crane and bridge footings will be placed
outside of the stream banks Since all of the proposed crossing areas have direct road
access temporary impacts to the streams will also be avoided.
This proposed Phase (II) of Cedar Ridge will also use an existing sewer line that
parallels Harris Creek and the two ponds. During initial construction of Phase II, a
sanitary sewer line will be installed near and parallel to the southern property line. As
mentioned in the previous paragraph this new sewer line will utilize the Virginia Water
Drive CSBAC area to pain access to the existing sewer line on the west side of Harris
Creek.
Page 6 of 10

Also evident on the Site Plan there will be minimal grading conducted on the residential
lots throughout this phase This should maximize nutrient removal through the grassed
and landscaped areas.
15 78 Acres will be permanently preserved along Harris Creek and its tributaries. This
includes the large pond at the rear of lots 72-88. Moreover, areas adjacent to the
stream crossings will be in the dedicated open space area. This will prevent homes
from encroaching into the riparian buffer areas. Examples include areas west of Lots
103 & 118.
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 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 USACE 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
htt~//h2o enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strm~ide.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.
The proposed project should not be required to provide mitigation for the proposed
impacts This is due the efforts of the developer's team to avoid jurisdictional areas
to the maximum extent possible As shown in the attached Engineering Plans, the
properties adjacent to the stream will not encroach into the vegetated buffers to
protect open waters along Harris Creek and its tributaries. Moreover, areas adjacent
to the stream crossings will be in the dedicated open space area. This will prevent
Page 7 of 10

homes from encroaching into the riparian buffer areas. Examples include areas
west of Lots 103 & 118. 15.78 Acres will be permanently preserved along Harris
Creek and its tributaries. This includes the large pond at the rear of lots 72-88.
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
[phone] 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. For
additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP
website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please
check the appropriate box on page five and provide the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): n/a
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): n/a
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): n/a
Amount ofNon-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): n/a
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): n/a
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
1. Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state/local) funds or the use of
public (federal/state) land? Yes ^ No
2. 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 [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ^ No ^
3. 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 (required by DWQ)
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
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
L Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 02B .0243 (Catawba) 15A NCAC
2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please
identify )? Yes ® No ^
2. If "yes", identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers.

Please refer to "Site Plan Information" for details and the Table on Overall Site Gradin
and Drainage Plan. While under construction, temporary, custom sedimentation basins
will be installed outside of the wetlands and streams to protect them against
sedimentation along with other appropriate sedimentation and erosion control measures
in compliance with the DWQ and Wake County Sedimentation and Erosion Control
requirements. Fourteen Level Spreaders will be utilized to provide diffuse flow. Utilizing
fourteen level spreaders that average 55-feet and are no longer than 95-feet will
maximize stormwater distribution. As seen on the Site Grading and Drainage Plan, site
aradina will be minimal. This will maximize the penetration of surface water into the
rg ound.

XIII. Violations (required by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ^ No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application? Yes ^ No
XIV. Cumulative Impacts (required by DWQ)
Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in additional
development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality? Yes ^ No
If yes, please submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with
the most recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality policy posted on our website at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. If no, please provide a short narrative description:

LEVI=L SPREADER OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT
The level spreader is defined as an elongated, level threshold, designed to diffuse stormwater runoff.
Maintenance activities shah be pertormed as follows:
1. After construction and until vegetation has been established, level spreader(s) shall be inspected after
every rainfall. Thereafter, level spreader(s) shall be inspected at least every month and more
frequently during the fall season and after heavy rainfall events:
a. Accumulated sediment, leaves, and trash shall be removed, and repairs made if required.
b. Lnspect level spreader(s) for evidence of scour, undercutting, settlement of the structure, and
concentrated flows downhill from the level spreader(s). ,
e. A level elevation shall be maintained across the entire flow-spreading structure at all times.
Repair or replace the level spreader if it is damaged.
d. Mow vegetative cover to a height of six (fi) inches and prune plants if they cover over half of the
level spreader surface.
e. Repair eroded areas and replace/replant dead or damaged vegetation.
2. The contractor should avoid the placement of any material on and prevent construction traffic across
the structure. If the measure is damaged by construction traffic, it shall be repaired immediately.
3. Inspect and repair the collection system (e.g., catch basins, pipes, swales, riprap} four (4) times a year
to maintain proper functioning,
acknowledge and agree by my signature below that I am responsible for the performance of the maintenance
procedures listed above. I agree to notify DWQ of any problems with the system or prior to any changes to
the system or responsible party.
Ntite: r ne regany responsrble party should not be a homeowners association unless more than 5d% of the
lots have been sold and a resident of the subdivision has been named the president.

{3n-Site Determination for Applicability to the Neuse Riparian Area Protection Rules (15A NCAC 2B
.0233)-EXPRESS REVIEW PROGRAM
On -January 16, 2007, at the request of Mr. Jay Keller, an on-site determination was conducted to review two
stream features located on the subject properly for applicability to the Neuse Buffer Rules {15A NCAC 2B .0233).
The features are labeled as "1"and " 2" on the attached map, initialed by Lia Myott and Cynthia Van Der Wiele
on January 19, 2007. The Division of Water Quality (.DWQ) has determined that the following:
• Feature "1" !,s subject to the Neuse Bu,~fer Rule at the pond outlet (Pond 1), but is not subject upstream of
the pond. Stream 1 is a perennial stream and rated a score of 36 on the DWQ Stream Identification Form.
Pond 1 is also subject to the Neuse Bu, fJ`er Rule.
+~ Feature " 2" is subject to the Neuse Buffer Rule orrthe property and rated a score of 35.75 on the DWQ
Stream Identification Form.
This on-site determination shall expire five (5) years from the date of this letter,
Landowners or affected parties that dispute a determination made by the DWQ that a surface water exists and that
it is subject to the buffer rule may request a determination by the Director. A request for a determination by the
Director shall be referred to the Director in writing c/o Cyndi Karoly, DWQ 401 Qversight/Express Review
Permitting .Unit, 2321 Crabtree Blvd., Raleigh, NC 27604-2260. You must act within 60 days of the date that you
receive this letter. Applicants are hereby notified that the 60-day statutory appeal time does not start until the
affected party (including downstream and adjacent landowners) is notified of this decision. This determination is
final and binding unless you ask for a hearing within 60 days.
This letter only addresses the applicability to the buffer rules of the stream features listed above and does not
approve any activity within the buffers or address features that were not observed during the site visit. Nor does
this letter approve any activity within Waters of the United States or Waters of the State. If you have any
questions, please contact Lia Myott at 919.733.9502.

REQUEST FOR MORE INFORMATION
Dear Mr. Polanco:
On February 19, 2007, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated January 30,
2007, to impact 22,800 square feet of Zone 1 protected Neuse River basin riparian buffer and 15,200
square feet of Zone 2 protected Neuse River basin riparian buffer to construct the proposed residential
subdivision. The DWQ has determined that your application was incomplete and/or provided inaccurate
information as discussed below. The DWQ will require five copies of additional information in order to
process your application to impact protected buffers on the subject property. Therefore, unless we receive
the additional information requested below, we will have to move toward denial of your application as
required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506 and will place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this
additional information. Please provide the following information so that we may continue to review your
project.
Additional Information Requested:
Buffer mitigation is required for the 150 linear foot crossing at western Virginia Water Drive.
Buffer mitigation is required for all road crossings that impact 150 linear feet of riparian buffer
or more. Please submit a mitigation plan detailing the amount of buffer impact at this crossing
and how the impact will be mitigated.
2. The geotechnical report provided in your application shows that bottomless culvert structures
(Con-Span) are appropriate only at Boring No. B-2, the northernmost crossing. Please submit a
revised application detailing the crossing structures, i.e. bridges, or culverts for the remaining
proposed crossings.
Please contact the DWQ within three weeks of the date of this letter to verify that you have received this
letter and that you remain interested in continuing to pursue permitting of your project and will be
providing the DWQ the requested information at a later date. Please contact me in writing and Mike
Horan of the DWQ Raleigh Regional Office. If we do not hear from you within three weeks, we will
assume that you no longer want to pttrsue this project and we will consider the project as withdrawn.

Re: Cedar Ridge Subdivision
DWQ Project # 04-0026 Wake County
Rolesville, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Karoly:
We are submitting the additional information requested from written correspondence
on February 26, 2007. The proposed Neuse River basin riparian buffer (NRBRB) impacts
are subject to 15A NCAC 02B .0233. Impacts associated with this project include 22,800
square feet of Zone 1 and 15,200 square feet of Zone 2 NRBRB areas. Please find
attached a revised application and supplemental information requesting written concurrence
from the United States Army Corps of Engineers (COE) and the North Carolina Division of
Water Quality (DWQ) that the activities proposed below may precede utilizing Nationwide
Permit 39. We have addressed your included written comments in the following
paragraphs.
1. Buffer mitigation is required for the 150 linear foot crossing at western
Virginia Water Drive. Buffer mitigation is required for all road crossings
that impact 150 linear feet of riparian buffer or more. Please submit a
mitigation plan detailing the amount of buffer impact at this crossing and
how the impact will be mitigated.
Please refer to the attached western Virginia Water Drive Plan and Profile Details.
The Con Span road crossing will span 134 and 140 linear feet of valley and stream
lengths, respectively. Buffer mitigation should not be required for this crossing.
2. The geotechnical report provided in your application shows that
bottomless culvert structures (Con-Span) are appropriate only at Boring
No. B-2, the northernmost crossing. Please submit a revised application
detailing the crossing structures, i.e. bridges, or culverts for the remaining
proposed crossings.

Please refer to the revised profile views of the Virginia Water Drive Stream
Crossings. The profile views assist in showing the boring locations in relation to the
elevations of the creek bed, footers, and bedrock.
Boring B-3 is located at the western Virginia Water Drive crossing. Since the
elevations to bedrock and the footers were ± 327 and ± 323.50-feet respectively, the 3.5-
feetdifferential is conducive to a bottomless culvert.
The eastern Virginia Water Drive crossing has been converted to a single 60-inch
RCP with headwall. To facilitate aquatic passage, 30-inches of the RCP will be buried.
Please refer to the revised profile view of the Virginia Water Drive Eastern Crossing.
If you should have questions or require additional clarification please feel free to
