1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The proposed project uses existing road crossings to the extent feasible. Headwalls are used to minimize the length of
impacts. The road crossing designs are proposed to maintain existing stream width instead of twin culverts where applicable
Wetland impacts are an accumulation of small wetland pockets and unavoidable edges. Impacts have been limited to 0.25 of
permanent impacts to wetlands and 0.14 of temporary impacts to install a sewer line. Wetland areas will be restored and
planted with an approved wetland seed mix. Anti -seep collars have been specified with in the utility crossings.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Project is subject to strict enforcement of erosion control plans and clearly marking or barricading areas to be preserved.

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

❑ Non -RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs
® Wetlands directly abutting RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs
® Wetlands adjacent to but not directly abutting RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs
❑ Wetlands adjacent to non -RPWs that flow directly or indirectly into TNWs
❑ impoundments of jurisdictional waters
❑ isolated (interstate or intrastate) waters, including isolated wetlands
b. Identify (estimate) size of waters of the U.S. in the review area:
Non - wetland waters. +/- 5200 linear feet: width (ft) and /or 0.633 acres.
Wetlands- 8 401 +/- acres
c. Limits (boundaries) of jurisdiction based on: 1987_ De lineation Manual
Elevation of established OHWM (if known)-
i Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below.
Z For purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TN W and that typically flows year -round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally"
(e g , typically 3 months)
2. Non - regulated waters /wetlands (check if applicable):3
Q Potentially jurisdictional waters and /or wetlands were assessed within the review area and determined to he not jurisdictional.
Explain:
' Supporting documentation is presented in Section III F
identify flow route to TNW5: SeaRPW A, which originates onsite, flows into PerRPW C, which empties directly into
Catawba River (TNW). SeaRPW B, which originates onsite, flows into PerRPW D, which empties directly into Catawba
River (TNW). PerRPW E, which flows through the site, empties directly into Catawba River (TNW)
Tributary stream order, if known 1 st
(b) General Tributary Characteristics (check all that apply):
Tributary is. ® Natural
❑ Artificial (man- made). Explain:
❑ Manipulated (man- altered) Explain:
Tributary properties with respect to top of bank (estimate).
Average width- 3'- 6' feet
Average depth. F- 3' feet
Average side slopes- 2:1.
Primary tributary substrate composition (check all that apply):

❑ Cobbles ® Gravel ❑ Muck
❑ Bedrock ❑ Vegetation. Type /% cover:
❑ Other Explain:
Tributary condition /stability [e.g., highly eroding, sloughing banks]. Explain: relatively stable.
Presence of run /riffle /pool complexes. Explain. Not identified.
Tributary geometry: Rel 0Ve_1k'_4r fight
Tributary gradient (approximate average slope). 1 -2 %
(c) Flow:
Tributary provides for: Sesison 9w
Estimate average number of flow events in review area/year: ll'-16
Describe flow regime- Seasonal flows with input from storm events.
Other information on duration and volume:
Surface flow is- Discrete,and:confined. Characteristics:
Subsurface flow: Unknown. Explain findings•
❑ Dye (or other) test performed:
Tributary has (check all that apply):
® Bed and banks
® OHWM6 (check all indicators that apply):
® clear, natural line impressed on the bank
®
the presence of litter and debris
® changes in the character of soil
❑
destruction of terrestrial vegetation
❑ shelving
M
the presence of wrack line
M vegetation matted down, bent, or absent
M
sediment sorting
M leaf litter disturbed or washed away
M

❑ water staining
❑
abrupt change in plant community
❑ other (list)
❑ Discontinuous OHWM 7 Explain-
If factors other than the OHWM were used to determ
❑ High Tide Line indicated by-
El oil or scum line along shore objects
❑ fine shell or debris deposits (foreshore)
❑ physical markings /characteristics
❑ tidal gauges
❑ other (list):
(iii) Chemical Characteristics:
ine lateral extent of CWA jurisdiction (check all that apply)
Mean High Water Mark indicated by
❑ survey to available datum,
❑ physical markings,
❑ vegetation lines /changes in vegetation types
` Flow route can be described by identifying, e g, tributary a, which flows through the review area, to flow into tributary b, which then flows into TNW.
6A natural or roan -made discontinuity in the OHWM does not necessarily sever jurisdiction (e g, where the stream temporarily flows underground, or where
the OHWM has been removed by development or agricultural practices) Where there is a break in the OHWM that is unrelated to the waterbody's flow
regime (e g, flow over a rock outcrop or through a culvert), the agencies will look for indicators of flow above and below the break
'ibid

3. Characteristics of all wetlands adjacent to the tributary (if any)
All wetland(s) being considered in the cumulative analysis 4
Approximately ( +/- 4 ) acres in total are being considered in the cumulative analysis.
For each wetland, specify the following:
Directly abuts? (Y/N) Size (in acres) Directly abuts? (Y/NN) Size (in acres)
N (Y) .895
V/W (N) 0 072
WD (N) 0 007
X (Y) 3 038
Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed. Onsite wetlands provide habitat for
herpetofauna and macroi n vertebrates The wetlands provide flood storage and ground water recharge The wetlands also trap and
filter pollutants before reaching RPWs and the TNW (Catawba River).
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 tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
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 carry 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 lifecycle 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 III. D:
2. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non -RPW flows directly or indirectly into
TNWs. 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 III. D-
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 111.13 A significant nexus is present between the adjacent wetlands WD, V /W, abutting wetland X, the perennial RPW C,
and the Catawba River (TNW) An small sandy berm exists between wetland WD, wetland V /W, and wetland X, which empties
directly into perennial RPW C This small sandy berm is the only seperation for the wetlands to flow to the RPW, which directly
flows to the Catawba River( TNW) The adjacent wetlands have the capacity to reduce pollutants through vegetation filtering, and
reduce flooding by providing storage before reaching the TNW The wetlands provide recharge to the RPW during dry climate
conditions These features also provide habitat for amphibians and other wildlife
