Meadows site in Monroe, Union County, North Carolina
Messrs. Roden -Reynolds, Johnson, Wcjoski, and Hamstead,
Enclosed is a request for Nationwide Permit 929 for the Blue Sky Meadows site on 120 acres
located west of Concord Ave and north of Hillsdale Drive in Monroe, Union County, NC. The
site is a proposed residential development and consists of five streams and nine wetlands. A
Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination Request was authorized by B. Roden -Reynolds in
January 2020. Please refer to the Jurisdictional Determination Information for updated
information on onsite surface waters and to the Approvals/Authorizations sections for previous
approvals.
As shown on the attached exhibits, the proposed project will include permanent impacts to three
streams for road crossing access and one wetland for roadway and stormwater infrastructure

installation. Total permanent impacts proposed include 265 linear feet of stream (Streams A and
B) and 0.078 acres of wetland impacts (Wetland L). These impacts were necessary due to
connectivity requirements as well as constraints from proposed infrastructure and onsite stream
buffers.
Impacts to site surface waters associated with the proposed development were limited through
site selection location, design, and the location/orientation of the proposed lots and access routes.
Retaining walls and 2:1 sloping will be implemented, where possible, to limit impacts to site
surface waters. The applicant has demonstrated substantial avoidance and minimization efforts in
which 86% of the 0.567 acres of onsite wetlands and 95% of the 5,291 if of onsite streams will
avoid permanent impacts. To compensate for the anticipated loss to Waters of the US, the
applicant is proposing payment to the North Carolina Division of Mitigation Services In -Lieu
Fee Program at a 2:1 ratio for 235 linear feet of impacts to onsite perennial streams.
Also enclosed is a copy of our Threatened/Endangered Species Evaluation for the site. No listed
species were identified within the project area and we believe that there will be no effect on
listed species, or their critical habitat as designated under Section 7 of the Endangered Species
Act. Please refer to the Threatened and Endangered Species Evaluation Section for additional
details on the terrestrial species evaluation. Thank you for your consideration and please contact
me if you have any questions, [phone] or email at heath. caldwell(c�r�,wetlands-epg com.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
Impacts associated with the proposed development were limited through site selection, design, and location/orientation of the proposed lots and
access routes. Proposed alignments are designed to meet safety and conductivity requirements while preserving as much undisturbed stream corridor
as feasible. The applicant has demonstrated substantial avoidance and minimization efforts in which 86% of the 0.567 acres of onsite wetlands and
95% of the 5,291 If of onsite streams will avoid permanent impacts.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Construction techniques will implement approved erosion control methods to avoid/minimize impacts to onsite/adjacent offsite receiving conveyances.
Crossings have been proposed within less sinuous stream sections to minimize impacts. All utilities but one will be bored to avoid impacts. Wetland
impacts due to utilities were a result of realigning the utility corridor to eliminate an additional stream crossing.

Expiration of Acceptance: 5/2/2021
Project: Concord Avenue -Monroe County: Union
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the NCDEQ Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) is willing to
accept payment for compensatory mitigation for impacts associated with the above referenced project as
indicated in the table below. Please note that this decision does not assure that participation in the DMS in -
lieu fee mitigation program will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts.
It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact permitting agencies to determine if payment to the DMS will
be approved. You must also comply with all other state, federal or local government permits, regulations or
authorizations associated with the proposed activity including G.S. § 143-214.11.
This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not
received a copy of the issued 404 Permit/401 Certification within this time frame, this acceptance will
expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to DMS. Once DMS receives a copy
of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must
be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the in -lieu fee to be paid by an applicant is
calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed on the DMS website.
Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the DMS, the impacts for which you are
requesting compensatory mitigation credit are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation
required and assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may exceed the
impact amounts shown below.

Blue Sky Meadows - Threatened/ Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation
METHODOLOGY:
The US Fish and Wildlife Service website
http://www.fws.gov/raleigh/species/cntylist/union.html was referenced to
determine the occurrence of Threatened, Endangered and Protected species for
Union County North Carolina, the results of which are listed below (Table 1).
Maps and aerial photographs were assembled, and the site was investigated
during the week of September 17, 2018.

Blue Sky Meadows- Threatened / Endangered / Protected Species Evaluation
Two plant species with federal protection are listed as potentially occurring in
Union County:
• Schweinitz's Sunflower (Helianthus schweinitzii), listed as Federally
Endangered, is typically found in open habitats which historically have
been maintained by wildfires and grazing bison and elk herds. Now most
occurrences are limited to roadsides, woodland and field edges, and utility
rights -of -way (ROW).
• Michaux's Sumac (Rhus michauxii), listed as Federally Endangered,
requires habitat of sandy forests and woodland edges. This species
requires periodic fire as a part of its ecology.
Two animal species with federal protection are listed as potentially occurring in
Union County:
• Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), protected by the Bald and
Golden Eagle Protection Act, typically inhabits forested areas near large
bodies of open water such as lakes, marshes, seacoasts and rivers,
where there are suitable fish populations and tall trees for nesting and
roosting.
• Carolina Heelsplitter (Lasmigona decorata), listed as Federally
Endangered, is restricted to cool, clean, well -oxygenated water. Stable,
silt- free stream beds are required for this species. Typically stable areas
occur where the stream banks are well -vegetated with trees and shrubs.
RESULTS:
The site consists of expansive woodlots that have been timbered and are in early
succession; old logging roads; creek corridors with narrow buffers; large crop
fields; and a private home site with lawn and landscaping, small outbuildings, and
a gravel driveway.
The timbered area is highly disturbed and is covered with old logging roads,
debris piles and stump sprouts, with extensive bramble thickets dominated by
Blackberry (Rubus sp.), Carolina Rose (Rosa caroling), Chinese Privet
(Ligustrum sinense), and Winged Sumac (Rhus copallina). Sapling trees are
filling in, dominated by Sweetgum (Liquidambar styracif/ua), Yellow Poplar
(Liriodendron tulipifera), White Oak (Quercus alba), Post Oak (Q. stellata),
Virginia Pine (Pinus virginiana), Shortleaf Pine (P. echinata), Black Cherry
(Prunus serotina), Eastern Red Cedar (Juniperus virginiana), and Black Gum
(Nyssa sylvatica).

Blue Sky Meadows - Threatened/ Endange7Y'd / Pt-otected Species Evaluation
Trees present on the narrow stream buffers include Red Oak (Q. rubra),
Southern Red Oak (Q. fa/cata), Willow Oak (Q. phellos), Mockernut Hickory
(Carya tomentosa), Shagbark Hickory (C. ovata), Hackberry (Ce/tis /aevigata),
American Elm (U/mus americans), and White Ash (Fraxinus americans).
There are several large, open crop fields. At the time of the site investigation
they were planted in soy beans.
The roadside and transitional fringe along the edges of the woods and fields are
dominated by common and weedy species including Johnson grass (Sorghum
halepense), Sericea Lespedeza (Lespedeza cuneata), Sourgrass (Rumex
acetosella), Cocklebur (Xanthium strumarium), Ragwort (Packera sp.), Ragweed
(Ambrosia sp.), Wingstem (Verbesina alternifolia), Goldenrod (Solidago sp.), and
Dogfennel (Eupatorium capillifolium).
Threatened & Endangered/Protected Species Results
All potential habitats for Schweinitiz's Sunflower and Michaux's Sumac
along the wood lines, roadside and field edges were closely examined.
No individuals of Schweinitz's Sunflower or Michaux's Sumac were
observed.
• There is no Bald Eagle habitat on site, and no eagles or eagle's nests
were observed.
There is no suitable habitat on site for Carolina Heelsplitter. No mussels
were observed during the survey nor would any be expected on -site.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Based on the site investigation and the review of available data, WEPG did not
identify any protected species occurring on the subject property. No further
investigation of the presence of protected species on this site is recommended at
this time.

shown in Jurisdictional Determination Request package entitled "Figure 1, Vicinity Mad' and Printed Date of 08/14/2018.
Indicate Which of the Following APP
A. Preliminary Determination
® There appear to be waters, including wetlands on the above described project area/property, that may be subject to Section 404
of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including wetlands have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently accurate
and reliable. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated 10/2/2019. Therefore
this preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory
mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation requirements, and other resource protection
measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all waters and wetlands that would be affected in any
way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional waters of the U.S. This preliminary determination is not an
appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part 331). However, you may
request an approved JD, which is an appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further instruction.
❑ There appear to be waters, including wetlands on the above described project area/property, that may be subject to Section 404
of the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403).
However, since the waters, including wetlands have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction determination
may not be used in the permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary determination is
merely an effective presumption of CWA/RHA jurisdiction over all of the waters, including wetlands at the project area, which
is not sufficiently accurate and reliable to support an enforceable permit decision. We recommend that you have the waters,
including wetlands on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish this wetland
delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination
❑ There are Navigable Waters of the United States within the above described project area/property subject to the permit
requirements of Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(CWA)(33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for
a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ There are waters, including wetlandson the above described project area/property subject to the permit requirements of Section
404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) (33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this
determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ We recommend you have the waters, including wetlands on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be
able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that
can be verified by the Corps.

SAW-2019-02211
❑ The waters, including wetlands on your project area/property have been delineated and the delineation has been verified by
the Corps. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated DATE. We strongly
suggest you have this delineation surveyed. Upon completion, this survey should be reviewed and verified by the Corps. Once
verified, this survey will provide an accurate depiction of all areas subject to CWA jurisdiction on your property which, provided
there is no change in the law or our published regulations, may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years.
❑ The waters, including wetlands have been delineated and surveyed and are accurately depicted on the plat signed by the
Corps Regulatory Official identified below onDATE. Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this
determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described project area/property which are subject to the
permit requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ The property is located in one of the 20 Coastal Counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA).
You should contact the Division of Coastal Management in Morehead City, NC, at [phone] to determine their
requirements.
Placement of dredged or fill material within waters of the US, including wetlands, without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). Placement of dredged or fill material, construction or
placement of structures, or work within navigable waters of the United States without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Sections 9 and/or 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC § 401 and/or 403). If you have any questions
regarding this determination and/or the Corps regulatory program, please contact Bryan Roden -Reynolds at 704-510-1440 or

C. Basis For Determination: Basis For Determination: See the preliminary jurisdictional determination
form dated 01/17/2020.
D. Remarks: None.
E. Attention USDA Program Participants
This delineation/determination has been conducted to identify the limits of Corps' Clean Water Act jurisdiction for the particular site
identified in this request. The delineation/determination may not be valid for the wetland conservation provisions of the Food Security
Act of 1985. If you or your tenant are USDA Program participants, or anticipate participation in USDA programs, you should request
a certified wetland determination from the local office of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, prior to starting work.
