The Corps will evaluate this application and a decide whether to issue, conditionally
issue, or deny the proposed work pursuant to applicable procedures of Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344).
Location
The 244.52 acre project site is located in Surf City, NC, on the north side of Highway 210
with a property connection to Highway 17 in Pender County, NC. The site can be located
at 34° 27.31' N and 77° 34.93' W.

Existing Site Conditions
According to the Pender County Generalized Soil Survey, the site contains Leon fine
sand, Kureb fine sand, Onslow fine sand, Mandarin fine sand, Murville Muck, and
Marvyn/Craven soils. The uplands seem to be generally comprised of the Leon,
Mandarin, and a portion of the Onslow soil group. The wetlands are mapped as Onslow,
Murville Muck, and Marvyn/Craven soils.
Phase I of the Turtle Creek Subdivision has already been permitted on the southern
portion of the site. The first phase of this subdivision required 0.41 acres of jurisdictional
impact to develop a self contained phase with two entrances off Highway 210. Where
not covered by the existing permit the site is generally wooded. The topography of the
site is generally flat to gently rolling. The central wetland portion of the property is
currently preserved under restrictive covenants. Becky's Creek forms the eastern
boundary with an existing jurisdictional pond in the southeast section connected to
Becky's Creek. The wetlands vegetation canopy is comprised primarily of loblolly pine
(pinus taeda), pond pine (pinus serotina), red bay (persea borbonia), red maple (acer
rubrum), and sweet gum (liquidambar styraciflua). The understory is typical pocosin
vegetation with dense gallberry (ilex glabra), fetter -bush (lyonia lucida), laurel leaf
greenbrier (smilax laurifolia), cinnamon fern (osmunda cinnamomea) and wax myrtle
(myrica cerifera). The on-site uplands canopy is comprised of long leaf pines (pinus
palustris), loblolly pines (pinus taeda), turkey oak (quercus laevis), and sweetgum
(liquidambar styraciflua). The understory contains andropogon sp., panicum sp., pepper
bush (clethra alnifolia) and wire grass.
Based on the generalized soil survey the soils in the wetlands are characterized by
medium infiltration and low surface runoff while the soils in the uplands are
characterized as rapid infiltration with slow surface runoff.
Applicant's Stated Purpose
The overall purpose of this project is to provide a residential community capable of
attracting citizens from primarily the eastern seaboard by providing affordable housing in
an area where the availability of this type of housing is declining. Additionally, the
purpose of this project also includes the following: the necessity for traffic from the
development to access US 17 in an efficient manner, to keep the traffic flowing smoothly
through the development, and to provide an alternate entrance to the development so all
traffic wanting to access the development does not utilize the NC 210 entrance.
Project Description
The site would be developed for a residential subdivision using heavy construction
equipment. Phase 1 of The Villages at Turtle Creek has previously been permitted under
Nationwide Permit 39 and 401 Water Quality Certification. Phase 2 of this development
is being applied for under this Individual Permit Application. Phase 2 involves eleven
wetland crossings (impacts 10-20) and one stream crossing (impact 12) which would
allow home owner access as well as emergency services access to US 17. The total
2

impacts from the various road crossings would be 70 feet of stream channel, 0.063 acres
of riparian wetlands, and 2.173 acres of non -riparian wetlands. There is currently no lot
fill proposed for the development of this subdivision.
To mitigate for the wetland impacts the applicant has proposed to conserve the remaining
wetlands within Phase 2 and approach the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program for 0.063 acres of riparian and 2.173 acres of non -riparian wetland credits.
Other Required Authorizations
This notice and all applicable application materials are being forwarded to the appropriate
State agencies for review. The Corps will generally not make a final permit decision
until the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) issues, denies, or waives
State certification required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500). The
receipt of the application and this public notice combined with appropriate application fee
at the North Carolina Division of Water Quality central office in Raleigh will constitute
initial receipt of an application for a 401 Water Quality Certification. A waiver will be
deemed to occur if the NCDWQ fails to act on this request for certification within sixty
days of the date of the receipt of this notice in the NCDWQ Central Office. Additional
information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be reviewed at the NCDWQ
Central Office, 401 Oversight and Express Permits Unit, 2321 Crabtree Boulevard,
Raleigh, North Carolina 27604-2260. All persons desiring to make comments regarding
the application for certification under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act should do so in
writing delivered to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ), 2321
Crabtree Boulevard, Suite 250, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604-2260: Attention: Ms
Cyndi Karoly by May 22, 2007.
The applicant has not provided to the Corps, a certification statement that his/her
proposed activity complies with and will be conducted in a manner that is consistent with
the approved North Carolina Coastal Zone Management Program. Pursuant to 33 CFR
325.2(b)(2), the Corps can not issue a permit for the proposed work until the applicant
submits such a certification to the Corps and the North Carolina Division of Coastal
Management (NCDCM), and the NCDCM notifies the Corps that it concurs with the
applicant's consistency certification.
Essential Fish Habitat
This notice initiates the Essential Fish Habitat (EFH) consultation requirements of the
Magnuson -Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act. he Corps' initial
determination is that the proposed project will not adversely impact EFH or associated
fisheries managed by the South Atlantic or Mid Atlantic Fishery Management Councils
or the National Marine Fisheries Service.

Cultural Resources
The Corps has consulted the latest published version of the National Register of Historic
Places and is not aware that any registered properties, or properties listed as being
eligible for inclusion therein are located within the project area or will be affected by the
proposed work. Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistoric, or historical
data may be located within the project area and/or could be affected by the proposed
work.
Endangered Species
The Corps has reviewed the project area, examined all information provided by the
applicant and consulted the latest North Carolina Natural Heritage Database. Based on
available information, the Corps is not aware of the presence of species listed as
threatened or endangered or their critical habitat formally designated pursuant to the
Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA) within the project area. A final determination on
the effects of the proposed project will be made upon additional review of the project and
completion of any necessary biological assessment and/or consultation with the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service and/or National Marine Fisheries Service."
According to the applicant, the site would have suitable foraging habitat for the Red -
cockaded woodpecker (RCW) but the habitat within the project area is not contiguous to
or within 300 feet of nesting habitat. It is the applicant's opinion that the project should
have no effect on RCW.
Evaluation
The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of the probable
impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity on the public interest.
That decision will reflect the national concern for both protection and utilization of
important resources. The benefit which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. All factors
which may be relevant to the proposal will be considered including the cumulative effects
thereof; among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general environmental
concerns, wetlands, historic properties, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards, flood plain
values (in accordance with Executive Order 11988), land use, navigation, shoreline
erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy
needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of property
ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving
the discharge of dredged or fill materials in waters of the United States, the evaluation of
the impact of the activity on the public interest will include application of the
Environmental Protection Agency's 404(b)(1) guidelines.

The Villages at Turtle Creek Phase 2/DCNC North Carolina I, LLC
18. Nature of Activity
The site will be developed for a residential subdivision using heavy construction equipment. Phase 1 of
The Villages at Turtle Creek has previously been permitted under Nationwide Permit 39 (Action ID #
200600208) and 401 Water Quality Certification (DWQ Project # 20061274). Phase 2 of this
development is covered under this Individual Permit Application (Figure 1 in Appendix A). Phase 2 was
not fully designed at the time of the PCN submittal. Eleven wetland crossings (impacts 10-20) and one
stream crossing (impact 12) will allow homeowner access as well as emergency services access to US 17
(Sheets 1-13 in Appendix A).
19. Project Purpose
The overall purpose of this project is to provide a residential community capable of attracting citizens
from primarily the eastern seaboard by providing affordable housing in an area where the availability of
this type of housing is declining. Wetlands bisect the property. Specifically, one wetland area bisects the
portion of the property adjacent to US 17 within Phase 2 and separates this portion of the site from the
remainder of the property. The purpose of this project is to provide access from US 17 to the remainder
of the property. "The Town of Surf City has determined that a major entrance into the development from
US 17 is critical to the project, and thus, is required to ensure adequate and safe provision of emergency
services, such as emergency medical, fire prevention, and public safety support" (see letter from the Town
of Surf City in Appendix B). Additionally, the purpose of this project also includes the following: the
necessity for traffic from the development to access US 17 in an efficient manner, to keep the traffic
flowing smoothly through the development, and to provide an alternate entrance to the development so all
traffic wanting to access the development does not utilize the NC 210 entrance. See Appendix A for area
layouts for Areas 10 - 20. This provides detail of each road crossing.
20. Reason(s) For Discharge
Wetland impact 10 (0.15 acre) is due to a road crossing and is within the previously permitted Phase
Two 24 inch culverts will be installed to ensure hydrologic connectivity of the wetland area.
Wetland impact 11 (0.235 acre) is due to a road crossing. The road alignment is at the narrowest area of
the wetland. Two 15 inch culverts will be installed to ensure hydrologic connectivity of the wetland area.
Wetland impact 12 (0.623 acre) is due to a road crossing. The road alignment is at the narrowest area of
the wetland. Five 48 inch culverts will be installed to ensure hydrologic connectivity of the wetland area.
This impact includes 70.0 linear feet of stream impact. Impact 12 is necessary to provide access from the
Phase 1 of the project to US 17.

Wetland impact 13 (0.019 acre) is due to road alignment and the necessary side slopes of the hammer
head.
Wetland impact 14 (0.123) is due to road alignment and the necessary side slopes of the hammer head.
Wetland impact 15 (0.203 acre) and 16 (0.691 acre) are due to a road crossing. The road alignment is at
the only portion of the wetlands possible for any road alignment and due to the configuration of the
property. Two 48 inch culverts will be installed at each of the crossings to ensure hydrologic connectivity
of the wetland areas. Impacts 15 and 16 are necessary to provide access from the Phase 1 of the project to
US 17 as well as to provide access to a large upland area within Phase 2.
Wetland impact 17 (0.044 acre) is due to a road crossing. The road alignment is at the narrowest area of
the wetland. Two 15 inch culverts will be installed to ensure hydrologic connectivity of the wetland area.
Wetland impact 18 (0.055 acre) is due to a road crossing and is within the previously permitted Phase 1.
Three 60 inch culverts will be installed to ensure hydrologic connectivity of the wetland area.
Wetland impact 19 (0.085 acre) is due to road alignment and the necessary side slopes of the road.
Wetland impact 20 (0.008 acre) is due to a road crossing. The road alignment is at the narrowest area of
the wetland.
21. Type(s) of Material Being Discharged and the Amount of Each Type in Cubic Yards.
The impacts to Waters of the U.S. are necessary for road construction and the associated side slopes
associated with Phase 2. Culverts will be place within the fill in order to ensure hydrologic connectivity
within the wetlands impacted. See table 1 below.

Additional Information
Alternative Analysis
No Action Alternative
A "No Action" alternative is here considered to be one that avoids all wetland and surface water impacts.
Due to the constraints dictated by site topography and land -grading requirements, this project cannot be
downsized or shifted to avoid all jurisdictional areas and still satisfy project purpose and need.
Additionally, due to the necessary area needed for a development such as this, it has proven to be
extremely difficult, if not impossible, to locate a different site of this size where no jurisdictional areas
occur in the Coastal Plain of North Carolina.
A "No Action" decision at this location would result in negative economic impacts to moderate income
families due to the decline of affordable housing in the area that the Villages of Turtle Creek would
provide. The "No Action" alternative is not capable of achieving the applicant's stated purpose and need
of the proposed project.
Preferred Alternative (Proposed Site)
The area around Surf City is currently experiencing rapid growth. Land values on the island are
extremely high, and there is simply not much undeveloped land remaining to sustain a residential
development of this type. As the Town of Surf City continues to expand and more people relocate to this
area, finding affordable housing will continue to be a challenge. The Villages at Turtle Creek plans to
provide affordable housing for moderate income families. The Villages at Turtle Creek site is centrally
located between US 17, NC 210 and HWY 50. The large tract of land in close proximity to the Town of
Surf City, Jacksonville, and the City of Wilmington has been determined through market analysis to be an
ideal place to fill the need for more housing in the area.
DCNC contacted several property owners concerning properties adjacent to or in the vicinity of the Turtle
Creek project concerning purchasing their properties in order to possibly minimize and avoid
jurisdictional impacts. There was very little interest from the parties other than the parties from which
DCNC purchased the current parcels for the project site. Other properties with US 17 frontage or near US
17 were evaluated for potential purchase. These properties were encumbered by access easements or
rights-of-way through private property to access US 17. Obtaining subdivision access through these
private easements is generally impractical. One parcel evaluated with frontage on US 17 had issues with
the title. The parcels purchased for the project site to allow access from US 17 were purchased
specifically for access to US 17. The preferred alternative provides connectivity to US 17 as requested by
the Town of Surf City.
The following information lists the primary reasons that DCNC has chosen the project site for The
Villages at Turtle Creek project.

Environmental
1. The topography of the site is generally flat to gently rolling and is well suited to development.
2. Some areas of the site are flat and open, which lend the land to higher density development.
3. The existing pond on the site is a tremendous asset to the project. The pond on the property
would be extremely difficult to construct today due to cost and the current environmental
regulations.
4. The site has no hazardous issues hindering development.
5. There are no protected species issues associated with this site.
6. The site does not contain any Areas of Environmental Concern regulated under CAMA.
Avoidance and Minimization
The appropriate roadway design is critical to allow the remainder of the project site to be properly
planned and designed. The design team believes that the roadway design presented in this permit
application and report represents the most practicable and least environmentally damaging alternative
while still maintaining the applicant's purpose and need. Completely avoiding wetland and stream
impacts from road crossings is not possible on this property. The position of the wetlands and streams in
the landscape makes it virtually impossible to avoid jurisdictional impacts. The design team has made
tremendous efforts to reduce the amount of unavoidable impacts to wetlands and streams. Road
alignments have been modified where feasible. Crossings have been designed to cross wetlands at their
narrowest point in most instances.
During the design process of this project, several design iterations were produced that would result in
varying jurisdictional impacts (figures in Appendix Q. The original site plans (Fig. 2A and 2B) proposed
3.28 acres of jurisdictional impacts for the entire project (Phases 1 and 2). Revisions were made to these
plans to further avoid and minimize impacts (Fig. 2C and 2D) and reduced proposed impacts to 2.689 and
2.841 acres respectively. The current site plan reflects further minimization and avoidance and proposes
to impact 2.647 acres for the entire project site. A previous Nationwide Permit authorized 0.41 acre of
jurisdictional impacts for Phase 1, resulting in 2.236 acres of additional jurisdictional impacts within
Phase 2.
Avoidance —Jurisdictional stream and wetland areas are present within the project study area. During the
planning and design phase of a project, efforts should be made to avoid impacts to the greatest extent
practicable. It is not be possible to avoid all impacts to jurisdictional areas, due to design constraints.
The Turtle Creek design team has gone to great lengths to avoid wetland and stream where practicable.
Certain unavoidable impacts are necessary to fulfill the applicant's purpose and need. Residential lots
were also removed from certain areas to avoid jurisdictional impacts.
Minimization — The design team has minimized jurisdictional impacts to wetlands and streams. Road
crossings have been designed to avoid wetland impacts to the greatest extent. Fill slopes have been
designed to minimize the amount of fill needed at wetland crossings. Wetlands are being crossed at their
narrowest points as safety and engineering practices allow. As previously mentioned, the design team has
reduced the total amount of jurisdictional impacts within the project site from 3.28 acres to 2.647 acres.

Compensatory Mitigation - The applicant is proposing a variety of compensatory mitigation measures to
offset the unavoidable loss of jurisdictional areas resulting from construction of Phase 2 of The Villages
at Turtle Creek. Mitigation will be required for 0.063 acre of riparian wetland fill and 2.173 acres of non -
riparian wetland fill. In accordance with USACE and DWQ current standards, mitigation will not be
required for the 70.0 feet of stream channel.
Proposed mitigation procedures include the conservation non -impacted wetlands within Phase 2 of the
project site in addition to the 61.5 acres conserved under the NWP 39 for Phase 1 of the project site.
Additionally, payment into the Ecosystem Enhancement Program for 0.063 acre of riparian wetland
impacts and 2.173 acres of non -riparian wetland impacts has been requested.
Federal Protected Species
Species with the federal classification of Endangered (E), Threatened (T), or officially Proposed (P) for
such listing, receive protection under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (16 US 1531 et seq.) as
amended. The most recent list prepared by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is dated
29 January 2007. This list indicates that thirteen endangered species have ranges considered to extend
into Pender County. Table 2 lists these thirteen species. Records held by the North Carolina Natural
Heritage Program (NCNHP) were reviewed by ESI on 21 March 2007 to determine if any federal
protected species have been documented from the project study area or the surrounding vicinity. NCNHP
records indicate a known occurrence of an American alligator approximately 2.5 miles south of the
project site. NCNHP records indicate no known occurrences of any of the other species within 3.0 miles
of the project site.

*Historic record — the species was last observed in the county more than 50 years ago.
NCNHP records indicate no documented occurrences of RCW within 3.0 miles of the project site.
Suitable foraging habitat for the RCW was identified within the pine woodland community type in the
mid-portion of the project site. Alteration of the pine woodland is anticipated as a result of this project.
However, this suitable foraging habitat within the project site is not contiguous to or within 300 feet of
suitable foraging or nesting habitat. Therefore, this project should have no effect on RCW.
NCNHP records indicate no documented occurrences of rough -leaved loosestrife within 3.0 miles of the
project site. Suitable habitat for rough -leaved loosestrife was identified in the ecotone between long -leaf
pine savannas and shrubby wetland areas throughout the project site. ESI biologists viewed multiple
rough -leaved loosestrife individuals to assess its current vegetative status on June 5, 2006 prior to visiting
the project site. These individuals were observed at the North Carolina Botanical Garden in Chapel Hill,
North Carolina. The species was fully recognizable as it was in its flowering stage. The survey for
rough -leaved loosestrife was conducted within its survey window (mid May - June) during the weeks of
June 19 and June 26, 2006 by ESI biologists Lauren Cobb, Gail Tyner, John Merritt, and Robert Turnbull.
Pedestrian transects were walked throughout the areas identified as suitable habitat within the project
study area in order to document the presence or absence of rough -leaved loosestrife. No rough -leaved
loosestrife was identified within any of the areas identified as suitable habitat. Therefore, it is ESI's
professional opinion that this project will have no effect on rough -leaved loosestrife.
No other habitat for any of the remaining listed species occurs within the project boundaries.
Cultural Resources
ESI submitted a letter to Peter Sandbeck of the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO)
dated 12 March 2007 requesting formal regulatory clearance for Phase 2 of the Villages at Turtle Creek
by the SHPO (see Appendix B). This information was forwarded to Mr. Nathan Henry of the Ft. Fisher
Office of the North Carolina Office of State Archaeology in an email dated 7 March 2007. In an email
dated 8 March 2007, Mr. Henry stated that he would not recommend an archaeological survey of this
phase of the project (Appendix B). ESI has not received formal clearance from SHPO at the date of the
permit application submittal.

Re: Turtle Creek Phase 2, Pender County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Sandbeck:
Cavanaugh & Associates, on behalf of their client, is planning to construct the proposed Turtle
Creek Phase 2 residential development in Pender County, North Carolina (Figures 1 and 2).
The proposed project is located on the south side of US 17 and borders Turtle Creek Phase 1,
which was reviewed by your office and cleared in a letter dated August 22, 2006 (ER 06-1294).
Phase 2 of the project will require an Individual Permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
This information was forwarded to Nathan Henry of the Ft. Fisher Office of the North Carolina
Office of State Archaeology in an email dated 7 March 2007. In an email dated 8 March 2007,
Mr. Henry stated that he would not recommend an archaeological survey of the tract.
Environmental Services, Inc., on behalf of Cavanaugh & Associates, is requesting formal
regulatory clearance of this project by the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office. If
you have any questions or comments, please contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,
ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC.
