Yes I do have the digital "For official use only" files. Yes -, e need the NCEEP acceptance letter. Without their acceptance , e may be advertising a mitigation option that is not feasible. Yes please do update figure 4 and eliminate any segments that are not on the JD. Once this information is received I begin to -work on the public notice. Where I -,vas able to get you a quick turn around this -,reek (because I -,vas scheduled in) on the RAI I cannot guarantee the same in future -weeks as I -will be out of the office a bit.

I consulted with Haskell regarding potential further avoidance /minimization regarding the three additional alternative you suggested. They provided substantial evidence that none of those plans , ere feasible for various reasons, N e -will of course document these in our official RAI response. Given that, it appears that impact reductions to put us belo-w the 0.5 -acre threshold are out of our reach. Therefore, , e ,, ould like to go ahead ,with the public notice process. To that end, " e " ould like to briefly clarify the items necessary to establish the public notice, First, (see item 42 on the RAI issued 20 March 2012) you have received a digital copy of revised maps /figures, and -will shortly receive hardcopies of same. We believe that these NN-111 comply -with 33 CFR 325.2, as required. Second, (see item 43 on the RAI) -, e have completed the NCEEP application letter for mitigation. Do you in fact need them to provide us an acceptance letter prior to public noticing? I believe you can notice that use of NCEEP is intended, ,without having it officially accepted. Is that correct? Third, as sho- wn in the attached, the streams NOT identified as impacts in Figure 4 fall outside the JD boundaries, and are considered ephemeral ditches. We -will update Figure 4 to identify these features -where they -will be affected by the project footprints in all three phases. If the above items are rectified, could you prepare the public notice? Thank you for your time and efforts. Sincerely, Jason Jason D. Evert Senior Ecologist Dial Cord-v and Associates Inc.

Carl Baker US Marine Corps 105 Michael Road Camp Lejeune, NC 28542 Expiration of Acceptance: September 27, 2012 Project: Hangar P683/P687 and Airfield Roads, NCAS New River County: Onslow The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) 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 NCEEP will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts. It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact these agencies to determine if payment to the NCEEP 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 SL 2009 -337: An Act to Promote the Use of CoMensatory Mitigation Banks as amended by S.L. 2011 -343. 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/CAMA permit within this time frame, this acceptance will expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to NCEEP. Once NCEEP 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 to NCEEP by an applicant is calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed at www.nceep.net. Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the NCEEP, the impacts that may require compensatory mitigation are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation required for this impact is determined by permitting agencies. Upon receipt of payment, EEP will take responsibility for providing the compensatory mitigation. The mitigation will be performed in accordance with the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources' Ecosystem Enhancement Program In -Lieu Fee Instrument dated July 28, 2010.
