Highgate Subdivision
Standard Permit Information
January 2021
2.0 Project Description (Box 18. Nature of Activity)
The Highgate Subdivision is a 229-Lot single-family residential division currently being developed in
Johnston County, NC. The subdivision is comprised of five low -density residential phases, with a central
recreation/mail center. Infrastructure and utilities include the required roadways, water & sewer service
(Town of Clayton), power, natural gas, and stormwater control. Greenway and open space areas are
also included as amenities and connectivity.
See Attachment D: Highgate Subdivision Overall Layout and Adjacent Properties.
Background
The property for the Highgate Subdivision was purchased by the current owners in 2005 with the
purchase of 4 tracts. Two of the tracts have become the Highgate Subdivision. Two additional tracts
adjacent to the south are not a part of the project.
The rezoning for the project was approved concurrently when the Town approved the subdivision plans
in 2015. The project site was already located within the Town limits when the subdivision was approved
in 2015.
The 2016, the main tract was purchased by Creech NC, LLC in 2016 and development began operations.
Construction of Phases 1-4 are currently underway on this tract. Note: the current configuration of this
tract has changed as lots have been created to sold to individual owners.
Prior Permitting and Approvals
The following approvals for the subdivision have obtained:
Nov 2, 2015 Town of Clayton Subdivision Approval

Prior USACE/NCDWR Water Quality Permitting
USACE NWP 18 was issued Oct 2020 authorizing impacts for construction of a stormwater management
basin, impacting 0.442 acres of emergent wetland. NCDWR WQC 4139 issued Oct 2020 certifying
authorized impacts.
See Attachment E: Prior4041401 Permitting
Prior Mitigation
Mitigation was paid for 0.45 acres of wetland impact authorized in the Oct 2020 NWP29.
Development Plan & Schedule
As referenced above, subdivision approval was obtained from Town of Clayton in 2015. Construction
began in 2016, following approval of water and wastewater utility permits, Erosion & Sediment Control
Plan, Stormwater Management Plan, and DOT Encroachment Agreement.
Construction in Phases 1 and 2, including infrastructure, utilities, and amenities has been completed.
Construction continues today in Phases 3 and 4.
Continued development of Phase 5 of the Highgate Subdivision requires the construction of Roadway G.
Site Plans show the roadway extending from near the main entrance off Covered Bridge Rd through the
developable uplands and exiting the subdivision to the west, near Shotwell Rd. Construction of the
roadway will require a road crossing of a headwater forest wetland and a second road crossing of a
separate headwater forest wetland and perennial stream. A third impact will be required along
Shotwell Rd to accommodate utility construction.
See Attachment F: Site Plans and Impact Maps.
Upon obtaining necessary approvals, construction will begin in Phase 5 and will continue through
completion.

Highgate Subdivision
Standard Permit Information
January 2021
3.0 Site Description (Box 18. Nature of Activity continued)
The Highgate Subdivision is located near the northern boundary limits of the Town of Clayton in
Johnston County, NC. The 229-lot subdivision is approximately 58.93 acres and is bordered by Covered
Bridge Road to the north, Shotwell Road to the west, an unnamed perennial stream to the southwest,
and private residences and undeveloped timberland to the south and east.
Construction at the site began in 2016. Prior to construction, the property was agricultural use and
forest lands.
Phase 5 of the Highgate Subdivision is comprised of approximately 11.34 acres, as shown on the
included aerial photo. This property was formerly in agricultural use and currently undisturbed. This
area is comprised primarily of successional pine forest mixed interspersed with fallow clear areas.
See Figure 4: Aerial Photograph
A jurisdictional farm pond was formerly situated in the approximate center of the western project
boundary; however, the dam of this pond breached in 2016, resulting in entire drainage of the pond.
The former pond bed remains present and is considered an emergent wetland area. Two jurisdictional
streams flow into the former pond bed from the north and northwest, and one perennial jurisdictional
stream extends south from the former pond outfall to the southern property line.
A mature mixed hardwood/pine forest extends along the perennial stream situated on the southwest
property boundary.
See Figure 5: USGS Topographic Map
See Figure 6: NRCS Soil Survey Map
There are no FEMA 100-Year floodplains mapped on the subject site (Reference: Johnston County GIS
Services, 2018).
JD for Subdivision — Phase 5
A Stream Buffer determination letter was issued by NC DWR on June 9, 2017.
See Attachment G: NCDWR Stream Buffer Determination Letter
Streams, wetlands, and open waters were delineated on the site in Jan 2020. On the Phase 5 property,
two wetland areas — Wetland AB2 and Wetland C — were located as well as the perennial Stream 1,
which is present throughout the property.
See Attachment H: Wetland Delineation Map

Highgate Subdivision
Standard Permit Information
January 2021
4.0 Project Purpose & Need (Box 19. Project Purpose)
Construction of the Highgate Subdivision will create single-family residential housing to meet the
current high demand for residential housing in the in the western Johnston County area. This area is
contiguous with the overall Raleigh/Durham/Research Triangle Area and provides housing for many who
work in the overall area.
The project is needed to meet the high demand for residential housing in the Town of Clayton area, and
therefore the Droiect is not water dependent.
5.0 Alternatives Analysis
Because the owner/applicant already owns the land for the subdivision, including the proposed
additional Phase 5, no offsite alternative analysis was conducted. Offsite options would be
geographically separated from the Highgate Subdivision, and as such, would not be a part of the project.
6.0 Proposed Impacts (Block 20. Reasons for Discharge)
The use of the culverts for the roadway are necessary to maintain sufficient drainage of the roadway.
Bridging the wetland and stream drainage areas is not a cost-effective alternative for this project.
Avoiding the crossings by trying to access upland roads to Covered Bridge Rd would not be allowed due
to traffic constraints near the intersection of the Covered Bridge and Shotwell Rds.

7.0 Avoidance & Minimization (Block 23. Description of Avoidance, Minimization,
and Compensation)
Design Minimization Phase 5
Prior to site design, streams and stream buffers were determined and concurrence received from the NC
DWR (see Attachment D).
Onsite jurisdictional streams, wetlands and/or open waters were delineated prior to project design, and
design elements included avoidance of impacts to resources, where possible.
To provide access to all available uplands for development, the roadway impacts could not be avoided.
Wetland Impact #1 (impact is to Wetland Q:
This impact results from the construction of the main roadway through the additional phase of
construction.
The roadway extends west from the subdivision entrance road, it is aligned towards the north, avoiding
impacts to the stream located offsite to the south. In addition, the road is designed with minimal size
requirements to meet standard construction specifications, minimizing the overall impact.
Wetland Impact #2 and Stream Impact #1:
This crossing was originally not intended to be part of the Highgate Subdivision. The Town of Clayton
required this crossing as part of the overall subdivision approval to accommodate future use planning,
not associated with this project.
The roadway has been aligned to cross the stream in an approximate perpendicular angle, minimizing
linear footage of steam impact and acreage of wetland impact adjacent to the stream.
Headwalls are used to reduce the amount of stabilizing fill required for the roadway, thereby reducing
the linear footage of the stream impact.
Wetland Impact #3 and Stream Impact #2:
This is a utility crossing for water line required by the Town of Clayton. The utility will cross the stream
at an approximate 90 degree angle, reducing the overall impact. In addition, this impact is situated as
close to the DOT right of way and fill slope of Shotwell Rd, essentially extending the existing roadway
impact by approximately 23 ft.
Due to the proximity of the roadway, a complete restoration of this impact is not possible, and as such is
considered a permanent impact.

Highgate Subdivision
Standard Permit Information
January 2021
Construction Minimization
Impacts from construction will be minimized through the use of erosion and sedimental control
measures. In addition, access to the construction areas will be from high ground. Where possible,
construction equipment will not be stationed in the wetlands or streams, avoiding additional temporary
impacts.
Compensatory Mitigation
Mitigation is proposed for wetland impacts only, which total 0.296 acres. Mitigation is proposed at a 1:1
ration based on prior mitigation requires of the same wetland area. This total is cumulative with the
previous 0.45 acres of impacts authorized in the previous Oct 2020 NWP29.
See Attachment I: Statement of Availability (Mitigation Credits)

8.0 Endangered Species Act
A USFWS Information for Planning and Consultation (IPaC) report IPAC was generated Jan 30, 2020 to
obtain a list of T&E species and/or designated critical habitats that may occur in the project location
and/or may be affected by the proposed Highgate Subdivision. A summary of species was included in
the Original PCN application as follows:
• Red Cockaded Wood Pecker-: "The red -cockaded woodpecker makes its home in mature pine
forests." The Pine Trees on this site are young trees, not mature pines. No effect.
• Neuse River waterdogs-"are usually found in streams wider than 15 meters (m), deeper than
100 centimeters ( cm), and with a main channel flow rate greater than 10cm'second. Further,
they need clean, flowing water characterized by high dissolved oxygen concentrations." Our
stream 1 is —3 ft wide, slow flowing and part of it goes into a braided wetland. No effect.
• Carolina madtoms-"Prefer clean water with permanent flow and are not tolerant of siltation and
turbidity." Stream 1 is a typical small urbanized stream with a watershed of recently built S/D's
causing the stream to be turbid and silty, the area of the crossing is inside a previous pond site,
the dam failed a few years ago, the previous impoundment bottom is silty. No effect.
• Atlantic pigtoe-" is dependent on clean, moderate -flowing water with high dissolved oxygen
content, the most abundant populations existed in creeks and rivers with excellent water
quality, and where stream flows are sufficient to maintain clean, silt -free substrates." As stated
Stream 1 is a small, urban stream, flowing through a breached pond impoundment with relic silt
and sediment. No effect.
• Dwarf Wedge Mussel -"To survive, they need a silt -free, stable streambed and well oxygenated
water free of pollutants." As stated Stream 1 is a typical small urban stream that is silty. No
effect.
• Michaux's sumac -the project area has small growth pines, I have walked around the site and did
not observe Michaux's sumac. No effect.
Critical Habitat was not identified within one mile of project area.

determination, feature A could not be found due to the existing construction activity occurring onsite, Therefore, a
determination could not be made for this feature and the 2005 determination is NOT valid because the 2005
determination had expired.
Stream B: The start point was flagged in the field and the GPS coordinates were approximated by satellite imagery
and will need to be field verified.
Stream C: The May 31, 2005 determination from the Division determined that this feature was subject to the Neuse
Buffer Rules. A determination made by Johnston County on October 6, 2016 determined that this feature was not
subject to the rules. While Johnson County is a delegated local authority, it DOES NOT have authority to made
determinations in Clayton. This project is located inside Clayton and the Division has made the determination that
the feature IS subject to the Neuse Buffer Rules.
The stream(s) listed above has been located on the most recent published NRCS Soil Survey of Johnston County,
North Carolina and/or the most recent copy of the USGS Topographic map at a 1:24,000 scale. Each stream that is
checked "Not Subject" has been determined to not beat least intermittent or is riot present. Streams that are checked
"Subject" have been located on the property and possess characteristics that qualify it to be at least an intermittent
stream. There may be other streams located on the property that do not show up on the maps referenced above but
may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers,
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 DWR way request a determination by the Director. An
appeal request must be made within sixty (60) days of date of this letter. A request for a determination by the
Director shall be referred to the Director in writing. If sending via US Postal Service: c/o Karen Higgins;
DYIVR — 401 & Buffer Permitting Unit; 1617Mai1 Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1617. If sending via
delivery service (UPS, Fe&D x, etc.): Karen Higgins; DWW — 401 & Buffer Permitting Unit; 512 N. Salisbury
Street, Raleigh, NC 27604.
This determination is final and binding unless, as detailed above, unless in appeal is requested within sixty
(69) days.
This project may require a Section 404/401 Permit for the proposed activity. Any inquiries should be
directed to the US Army Corp of Engineers (Raleigh Regulatory Field Office) at (919)-554-4884.
