Project Description
3a.
Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
The project site currently used for a local restaurant - Cafe Portifino. The northwest corner of the resturaunt building rests
atop Boone Creek and a pier foundation. The far (northwest) corner pier footing is severely eroded along river left of
Boone Creek which left unattended, could cause significant damage to the building.
3b.
List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
0
3c.
List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
Approx. 110 ft of Boone Creek
3d.
Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The purpose of the project is to stabilize a very erosive river left streambank that exists northeast of the building.
Approximately 48 linear feet of streambank erosion has occurred in this reach of Boone Creek. Vegetated boulder toe
protection will be installed and planted heavily atop with native woody species.
3e.
Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The stream stabilization project proposes the installation of a vegetated boulder toe to protect the streambank from
continued erosion. Native plants and Iivestakes are proposed for the boulder toe and the riparian area adjacent to the
creek.
As per NCDENR requirements, the "pump- around" method will be employed during all in- stream work. Where it is
reasonable, Boone Creek flow will be diverted around each in- stream excavation area to perform work in the "dry" when
applicable.
Following construction, planting of native trees, shrubs, and herbaceous species will occur in all direct riparian areas (see
re- vegetation detail).
Proposed excavation equipment includes: hydraulic thumb trac - hoe(s), and tandem axle road dump truck(s). All heavy
equipment will be kept out of the stream channel during project construction except where absolutely necessary to install
the boulder toe protection.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The proposed work and associated impacts are intended to stabilize Boone Creek and the streambanks along the Cafe
Portifino property reach while minimizing impacts to aquatic resources. Design measures which minimize impacts include
vegetated boulder toe protection intended to decrease site sedimentation. All streambanks will then be planted with
appropriate native species (see re- vegetetion detail).
All disturbed buffer areas will be immediately seeded upon completion (temporary - annual ryegrass), matted (coconut /coir
matting), and stabilized at the close of each construction day. Following construction, the banks of the restored channel will be
seeded with a native floodplain mix (permanent seed). Live stakes and matting staples will be used to secure the coconut
matting in these high- stress areas.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
All heavy equipment will be kept out of the stream channel during project construction except where absolutely necessary to
install vegetated boulder toe protection. Any entering of the channel or immediate riparian area will be done with new
equipment, no hydraulic leaks tolerated. Disturbance of channel bottom and banks and equipment access areas shall be held
to the minimum necessary to allow for bank stablization sufficient to restore the hydraulic capacity of the stream channel. Flow
will be diverted around the work area via the "pump around" method (see attached detail).
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State

Non - wetland waters: 150 linear feet: xx ft (bkf) width (ft) and or acres.
Wetlands: 0 acres.
c. Limits (boundaries) of jurisdiction based on: Established by OHWM
Elevation of established OHWM (if known): 3250 feet.
2. Non - regulated waters /wetlands (check if applicable):3
Potentially jurisdictional waters and or wetlands were assessed within the review area and determined to be not jurisdictional.
Explain:
Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below.
For purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TNW and that typically flows year -round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally"
(e.g., typically 3 months).
3 Supporting documentation is presented in Section III.F.

SECTION III: CWA ANALYSIS
A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete
Section III.A.1 and Section III.D.1. only; if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2
and Section III.D.I.; otherwise, see Section IILB below.
1. TNW
Identify TNW: No TNW found onsite.
Summarize rationale supporting determination:
2. Wetland adjacent to TNW
Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that Nvetland is "adjacent':
B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
deter mine whether or not the standards for j urisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
T he agencies wi I I asser t j ur i sdicti on over non-navi gable tr i buta r ies of T N W s wher e the tr i buta r i es a r e " r elatively per ma nent
waters" (R PW s), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year -round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an R PW is al sojurisdictiona1. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year -round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section I1 I.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section I I I .D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an R PW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law.
If the water body4 is not an R PW, or a wetland directly abutting an R PW, a J D will require additional data to determine if the
water body has a significant nexus with a T NW. I f the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the J D request is
the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. I f the J D covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section I I I.B.1 for
the tributary, Section I I I.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section I I I.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section I I I.0 below.

Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed:
C. SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributari- to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integritN
of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and /or biological integrity of a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to can-\- pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs. or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecvcle support functions for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW?
Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below:
1. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain
findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section I111):
2. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non -RPW flows directly or indirectly into

adjacent wetlands, then go to Section IILD:
3. Significant nexus findings for wetlands adjacent to an RPW but that do not directly abut the RPW. Explain findings of
presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to
Section I111):
