There is a park and ride lot at the SW corner of the tract on Eubanks Road. Please meet me at the right rear corner of that lot. It is just a short jaunt downhill from there into the valley of the most downstream of the two first order tribs depicted on the soils map. I am 10 weeks post- surgery from a lumbar spinal fusion, so will need to walk a little more slowly and carefully than usual. I have been walking 30 -45 min every day, so my leg strength, endurance, and balance are probably 80 + %, just need to be careful not to fall. I will give John a shout. Mike - please tell the surveyor to plan to meet us at the upstream end of the main stem channel downstream of Eubanks Road at about 11 am on the 12th. We will try to minimize his wait time. If some reason, he must come later, that's fine. Eric and and I can mark the origin(s) with labeled flagging and I can come back later in the afternoon if needed. The surveyor can call me for coordination if he misses making it to the site while I am there with Eric. Please give the surveyor my cell number and ask him to call me directly ASAP to confirm the schedule. Regards, Jim James D.

They're trying to claim the entire reach of Tributary A /B /C/ and a portion of the Main Channel are Intermittent. The individuals they sent out to perform their assessment do not have the proper credentials to make such determinations, and their interpretation is a gross misrepresentation of the methodology outlined in the Identification Methods for the Origins of Intermittent and Perennial Streams (NCDWQ Version 3.1). We're standing behind Dr. Gregory's assessment of site hydrology, and need someone from your department to meet onsite with our Survey Crew and Dr. Gregory, to come to an unbiased final consensus on the correct classification of these systems. Please coordinate your site visit with Dr. Mike Molley, Senior Solutech Environmental Scientist (1- 770 -231- 7492), and he'll make sure Dr. Gregory and our Survey Crew are onsite at that time.

Several small streams are located within the proposed development site. These small streams are subject to the City of Chapel Hill's riparian setback requirements. The actual setback distance for each stream is based upon the stream classification. In order for the final layout of the development to occur, all streams on -site must be classified so that the riparian setback distances can be established. This report describes the stream inspection that recently took place on -site and the stream classification that resulted from this inspection. LOCATION Figure 1 below shows an aerial photograph of the proposed development site. The site is located within the City of Chapel Hill along the north side of Eubanks Road. The proposed development is located just west of both Interstate 40 and Martin Luther King Boulevard (State Route 86). Millhouse Road is located approximately 0.4 miles to the west of the proposed development. Figure 1. Site Location of the Proposed Development Page 1 of 5 PREVIOUS CLASSIFICATIONS Two previous stream classifications were performed for the on -site streams The first classification was performed in April 2003 The second classification was performed in February 2011 Both classifications were performed by members of the City of Chapel Hill engineering staff INITIAL SITE INSPECTION A preliminary stream inspection was performed by Michael C Menoes, Ph D , P E , and Robert R Maschue, P G , on October 21, 2011, at the proposed development site Both stream determination reports prepared by the City of Chapel Hill engineering staff were reviewed by both individuals prior to the inspection The goal of the preliminary inspection was to visually corroborate the prior stream determination reports prepared by the City of Chapel Hill Engineering Department The results of the initial site inspection revealed questionable stream classifications in several locations Stream lengths previously identified as perennial appeared to be intermittent, while other stream lengths previously identified as intermittent appeared to be ephemeral Since the stream designation affects the required buffer, it was decided that a new stream inspection should be performed to classify the on -site streams as accurately as possible CURRENT SITE INSPECTION AND CLASSIFICATION A new inspection of the on -site streams was performed on January 20, 2012 This inspection was performed by Michael C Menoes, Ph D, P E , and Michael Molley, Ph D Michael C Menoes, Ph D , P E has an extensive background in hydrology, hydraulics, and geomorphology Michael Molley, Ph D has an extensive background in biology Resumes for both of these individuals can be found in Appendix C Stationing was established along the main channel and is shown on Figure 2 The flow pattern of the main channel is from southeast to northwest Station 00 +00 is located at the most upstream point of the main channel on the development site, whereas Station 28 +00 is located near the most downstream point of the main channel on the development site A review of the Southeast Regional Climate Center website (http / /www sercc com /) indicated that the yearly precipitation total for 2011 was slightly below normal for the Chapel Hill area, but certainly not representative of drought conditions Additionally, precipitation had not occurred for at least 48 hours when the new stream inspection was performed Page 2 of 5 The inspection performed and resulting classification was based on the Methodology for Identification of Intermittent and Perennial Streams and Their Origins Manual, Version 4 11 (September 2010) This methodology involves inspecting the geomorphological, hydrological, and biological characteristics of the stream in order to classify the stream The geomorphological and hydrological characteristics of each stream run was determined by Michael C Menoes, Ph D , P E The biological characteristics of each stream run was determined by Michael Molley, Ph D The entire lengths of the main channel and three, small tributaries were first walked and inspected to help identify representative reaches of the channels Two areas were specifically identified as not being representative of the reach lengths and thus were ignored for the purpose of stream classification The first stream run that was ignored was the first 80 feet upstream section of the main channel at the downstream outlet of the culvert under Eubanks Road (See photos 1 and 2 in Appendix B ) The first (approximately) 80 feet downstream of the culvert has been eroded into a small channel by high flow velocities exiting the culvert After the first 80 feet, a scour pool exists that dissipates any remaining energy of the water exiting the culvert Downstream of the scour pool, the channel is barely visible for the next approximately 450 feet This 450 feet is representative of the main channel at the upstream end of the proposed development, and this stream length was used to classify this section of channel The second stream run that was ignored was the main channel length through the utility easement near Station 25 +00 Approximately 120 feet of the main channel through the utility easement appears as if it has been recently altered (filled in) by man -made activity This length of the main channel is not representative of the main channel near the downstream end of the proposed development site, and was not used to classify this section of channel FINDINGS OF THE CURRENT CLASSIFICATION The NC DWQ Stream Identification Form was completed for several locations along the main channel and for the three, small tributaries The completed forms can be found in Appendix A Photos of locations where the identification forms were completed can be found in Appendix B During the inspection of the main channel and three, small tributaries, areas were identified that looked as if the channel may be transitioning from ephemeral to intermittent and from intermittent to perennial so as to define the length of channel that can be classified as ephemeral, intermittent, or perennial Figure 2 shows the main channel and three tributaries color coded to identify the classification of each stream length Page 3 of 5 `, \`\, ,i- 1 - - /' /' ' '''/�- --'ice% , ,�� �p.�.a \• �

Results of the January 2012 Stream Classification The final stream classifications, as determined by this study indicate: 1. The entire lengths of the three, small tributaries are all ephemeral. 2. Approximately the first 500 feet of the main channel is ephemeral. 3. Approximately the next 800 feet of the main channel is intermittent. 4. Approximately the remaining 1300 feet of the main channel is perennial.

APPENDIX A Completed NC DWQ Stream Identification Forms B Photos C Resumes .5 INTRODUCTION The Edge Chapel Hill, LLC is planning on developing approximately 80 acres within the northwest quadrant of the City of Chapel Hill. Several small streams are located within the proposed development site. These small streams are subject to the City of Chapel Hill's riparian setback requirements. The actual setback distance for each stream is based upon the stream classification. In order for the final layout of the development to occur, all streams on -site must be classified so that the riparian setback distances can be established. This report describes the stream inspection that recently took place on -site and the stream classification that resulted from this inspection. LOCATION Figure 1 below shows an aerial photograph of the proposed development site. The site is located within the City of Chapel Hill along the north side of Eubanks Road. The proposed development is located just west of both Interstate 40 and Martin Luther King Boulevard (State Route 86). Millhouse Road is located approximately 0.4 miles to the west of the proposed development. Figure 1. Site Location of the Proposed Development Page 1 of 5 PREVIOUS CLASSIFICATIONS Two previous stream classifications were performed for the on -site streams The first classification was performed in April 2003 The second classification was performed in February 2011 Both classifications were performed by members of the City of Chapel Hill engineering staff INITIAL SITE INSPECTION A preliminary stream inspection was performed by Michael C Menoes, Ph D , P E , and Robert R Maschue, P G , on October 21, 2011, at the proposed development site Both stream determination reports prepared by the City of Chapel Hill engineering staff were reviewed by both individuals prior to the inspection The goal of the preliminary inspection was to visually corroborate the prior stream determination reports prepared by the City of Chapel Hill Engineering Department The results of the initial site inspection revealed questionable stream classifications in several locations Stream lengths previously identified as perennial appeared to be intermittent, while other stream lengths previously identified as intermittent appeared to be ephemeral Since the stream designation affects the required buffer, it was decided that a new stream inspection should be performed to classify the on -site streams as accurately as possible CURRENT SITE INSPECTION AND CLASSIFICATION A new inspection of the on -site streams was performed on January 20, 2012 This inspection was performed by Michael C Menoes, Ph D , P E , and Michael Molley, Ph D Michael C Menoes, Ph D , P E has an extensive background in hydrology, hydraulics, and geomorphology Michael Molley, Ph D has an extensive background in biology Resumes for both of these individuals can be found in Appendix C Stationing was established along the main channel and is shown on Figure 2 The flow pattern of the main channel is from southeast to northwest Station 00 +00 is located at the most upstream point of the main channel on the development site, whereas Station 28 +00 is located near the most downstream point of the main channel on the development site A review of the Southeast Regional Climate Center website (http / /www sercc com /) indicated that the yearly precipitation total for 2011 was slightly below normal for the Chapel Hill area, but certainly not representative of drought conditions Additionally, precipitation had not occurred for at least 48 hours when the new stream inspection was performed Page 2 of 5 The inspection performed and resulting classification was based on the Methodology for Identification of Intermittent and Perennial Streams and Their Origins Manual, Version 4 11 (September 2010) This methodology involves inspecting the geomorphological, hydrological, and biological characteristics of the stream in order to classify the stream The geomorphological and hydrological characteristics of each stream run was determined by Michael C Menoes, Ph D , P E The biological characteristics of each stream run was determined by Michael Molley, Ph D The entire lengths of the main channel and three, small tributaries were first walked and inspected to help identify representative reaches of the channels Two areas were specifically identified as not being representative of the reach lengths and thus were ignored for the purpose of stream classification The first stream run that was ignored was the first 80 feet upstream section of the main channel at the downstream outlet of the culvert under Eubanks Road (See photos 1 and 2 in Appendix B ) The first (approximately) 80 feet downstream of the culvert has been eroded into a small channel by high flow velocities exiting the culvert After the first 80 feet, a scour pool exists that dissipates any remaining energy of the water exiting the culvert Downstream of the scour pool, the channel is barely visible for the next approximately 450 feet This 450 feet is representative of the main channel at the upstream end of the proposed development, and this stream length was used to classify this section of channel The second stream run that was ignored was the main channel length through the utility easement near Station 25 +00 Approximately 120 feet of the main channel through the utility easement appears as if it has been recently altered (filled in) by man -made activity This length of the main channel is not representative of the main channel near the downstream end of the proposed development site, and was not used to classify this section of channel FINDINGS OF THE CURRENT CLASSIFICATION The NC DWQ Stream Identification Form was completed for several locations along the main channel and for the three, small tributaries The completed forms can be found in Appendix A Photos of locations where the identification forms were completed can be found in Appendix B During the inspection of the main channel and three, small tributaries, areas were identified that looked as if the channel may be transitioning from ephemeral to intermittent and from intermittent to perennial so as to define the length of channel that can be classified as ephemeral, intermittent, or perennial Figure 2 shows the main channel and three tributaries color coded to identify the classification of each stream length Page 3 of 5 �I� ✓''Sir- �;''�! / / -' \� �' %; " "'•'_--'= ��r- ^— �-_-

Results of the January 2012 Stream Classification The final stream classifications, as determined by this study indicate: 1. The entire lengths of the three, small tributaries are all ephemeral. 2. Approximately the first 500 feet of the main channel is ephemeral. 3. Approximately the next 800 feet of the main channel is intermittent. 4. Approximately the remaining 1300 feet of the main channel is perennial.
