RCFLLP ECS CAROLINAS, LLP "Setting the Standard for Service" Geotechnical • Construction Materials - Environmental • Facilities NC Registered Engineering Firm F -1078 January 16, 2013 Ms. Karen Higgins NC DWQ, 401/Wetlands Unit 1650 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699 -1650 2 0 1 3 0 0 4 0 Subject: Pre - Construction Notification Application Request for 401 Water Quality Certification & Riparian Buffer Authorization Griffin Mill - Bedstone Drive Extension Greensboro, Guilford County, North Carolina ECS Project 09.21953 Dear Ms. Higgins: Please find five copies of the Pre - Construction Notification Application for the above referenced site. The site is located southeast of Bedstone Drive, in Greensboro, Guilford County, North Carolina. The site contains wooded land. Structures are not located on the site. The site is being developed with a residential subdivision and an associated access road. ECS completed a wetland delineation for the proposed road crossing in October 2012. Mr. Andrew Williams with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and Ms. Sue Homewood with the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources — Division of Water Quality (NCDENR -DWQ) verified the delineation on January 15, 2013 The road crossing will unavoidably impact 148 linear feet of stream channel and 0.23 acres of wetland. In addition, 11,571.91 square feet of riparian stream buffer will be impacted. Due to the stream impacts being less than 150 linear feet, stream mitigation should not be required. Based on the wetland impacts being greater than 1/10"' of an acre, wetland mitigation will be required (USACE 2:1). Buffer mitigation should not be required due to the road crossing impacting less than 150 linear feet (or less than 1 /3rd acre of riparian buffer), in accordance with the NCDENR -DWQ Red Book as an "allowable" with authorization activity. On behalf of Evans Engineering, Inc., I am requesting that a 401 Water Quality Certification and Riparian Buffer Authorization be issued to authorize the permanent impact (culvert and Hp rap) to 148 linear feet stream channel (mitigation not required) and the permanent impact (fill) to 0.23 acres of wetland (USACE 2:1). Due to the amount of wetland impacts being greater than 0.10 acres, mitigation for wetland impacts is required at a 2:1 ratio. Compensatory mitigation is proposed through the NC Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) to purchase 0.50 acres of wetland credits (EEP Acceptance Letter attached). The proposed mitigation should satisfy the USACE mitigation requirements. Private mitigation banks have been contacted and do not have available credits. There are no additional wetland or stream impacts proposed at this time �Imvlz JAN Y S 2013 4811 Koger Boulevard o Greensboro, NC 27407 o T: 336- 856 -7150 • F: 336 -856- ECS Carolinas, LLP • ECS Florida, LLC • ECS Mid - Atlantic, LLC ^ ECS Southeast, LLC • ECS Texas, LLP Request for 401 Water Quality Certification & Ripadan Buffer Authorization Griffin Mill - Bedstone Drive Extension Greensboro, Guilford County, North Carolina ECS Project 09.21953 Please feel free to contact me at (336) 856 -7150 if you have any questions concerning this request or if additional information is required.

The project is Phase II of the Griffin Mill Residential Sub - Division. Phase I of the sub - division was constructed sometime between 2006 and 2008. Stream and wetland impacts were avoided during Phase I of the sub - division. Plans for the subdivision were submitted and approved by the City of Greensboro at that time (View Attachments). The plans that were previously approved by the City of Greensboro included three phases (two south of Trosper Road and one north of Trosper Road). The plans previously approved by the City of Greensboro show a road crossing in the approximate vicinity of the one being proposed. The sub - division lot layout was designed/plotted such that the only stream/wetiand impacts are the ones being proposed within this permit application. Following the construction of Phase I of the sub - division, the site was sold to the current landowner and developer. At this time, the portion of residential subdivision north of Trosper Road is not anticipated. Phase II will be the final phase of the development of the sub - division. Additional stream or wetland impacts are not anticiapted at this time. Page 4 of 13 PCN Form —Version 1.3 December 10, 2008 Version C. Proposed Impacts Inventory 1. Impacts Summary 1 a.

Total buffer impacts 7719.26 4392.26 6i. Comments: The site is located within the Cape Fear River Basin in an area that has been designated as WS -III. In addition, the site is located within the Lake Jordan Watershed. The road is crossing the stream buffer as near to 90 degrees as possible, taking into account large topographic gradients in the vicinity of the crossing. Buffer mitigation should not be required due to the road crossing impacting less than 150 linear feet (or less than 1 /3rd acre of riparian buffer), in accordance with the NCDENR -DWQ Red Book as an allowable activity. D. Impact Justification and Mitigation 1. Avoidance and Minimization 1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. Due to the use of the site for residential development, a road must be constructed to provide access to the site. Adjacent properties of the site are not owned by the owner /developer of the site. Therefore, there is not other option to access the site for the proposed development. Phase I of the sub - division was constructed sometime between 2006 and 2008. Plans for the sub - division were submitted and approved by the City of Greensboro at that time (View Attachments). The plans that were previously approved by the City of Greensboro included three phases (two south of Trosper Road and one north of Trosper Road). The plans previously approved by the City of Greensboro show a road crossing in the approximate vicinity of the one being proposed. The sub- division lot layout was designed/plottted such that the only stream/wetland impacts are the ones being proposed within this permit application. Lot layout of Phase II of the sub - division has been re- designed, since being approved by the City of Greensboro. The re- deisgn of Phase II eliminates a road that was stubbed to the eastern part of the sub - division in the vicinity of an off -site stream. This will eliminate potential for future stream and wetland impacts, if development activities occur in the future on the adjacent property east of the site. The road crossing will impact 148 linear feet of stream. In order to minimize stream impacts, endwalls have been designed that are approximately six feet tall. The road crossing has been designed in an area of the stream that is relatively straight. In addition, the crossing has been designed to cross at the narrowest point of the wetlands that are located adjacent to both sides of the stream, thus signigicantly reducing wetland impacts. Clearing and grading limits for the road crossing have been minimized to the maximum extent possible, taking into account severe topographic gradients in the vicinity of the road crossing. The road crossing has been designed to cross as near to perpendicular of the stream as possible given severe topographic gradients in the vicinity of the stream. The road can not cross the stream exactly at 90 degrees due to road grades being in excess of 10 -12 %. The current road has been designed to cross at a maximum grade of 5-6% with an average of a 3% grade. The road has been designed with an average grade of 3% due to safety concerns. The concerns regarding safety for roads with excessive grades include but are not limited to poor visibility, limited site lines and potential increases for accidents during inclement weather conditions. Furthermore. aradina to level the PYhnitinn sInno ic nt%f fomcihln A. ....1., S, Page7of13 PCN Form —Version 1.3 December 10, 2008 Version rock and excessive grading costs. There is approximately 1.029 acres of wetland, approximately 1,786 linear feet of stream channel and a 0.241 acre pond that exist on the site. The remaining 0.779 acres of wetland, approximately 1,638 linear feet of stream channel and the 0.241 acre pond are being avoided. In addition, undisturbed buffers (inner 30 feet on both sides of stream) and vegetated buffers (outer 70 feet on both sides of stream) will be established on the portions of the stream channel that will not be impacted. 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. The clearing limits will be staked and silt fence will be used. A temporary coffer dam will be installed upgradient of the proposed culvert within the area of stream that will be permanently impacted with rip rap. During construction, water will be pumped around or diverted into by -pass channels in the construction area. All temporary impacts will take place within the limits of the permitted impacts. Upon completion of culvert installation, the temporary sand bag coffer dams will be removed and stream flow will be diverted through the culvert. Following construction, disturbed slopes will be stabilized with permanent seeding, matting and temporary slope linings. Best management practices will be implemented during construction activities to avoid sediment discharge into downgradient streams and wetlands. A Temporary "Culvert Crossing - Pump Around" for Culvert Installation exhibit is included on the Culvert Crossing Plan generated by Evans Engineering that is included as an attachment. 2.
