Good Morning Beth,

I hope that you are doing well.

Axiom Environmental, Inc. has prepared a permit application on behalf of the NCDOT Rail Division and would
like to request the appropriate mitigation from the N.C. Division of Mitigation Services.

 This project is the Salisbury Train Station Second Platform and Pedestrian Underpass in Salisbury,
Rowan County (NCDOT Division 9), TIP No. P-5726.
 All project impacts occur within 8-digit HU 03040103 (NCDWR sub-basin 12-115-3 of the Yadkin Pee
Dee River basin).
 Permanent impacts total 175 linear feet of streams and no wetlands.
o Of the stream impacts, 132 feet will be placed in a culvert and 43 feet will receive bank
stabilization.
o Coordination with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has resulted in the USACE
requiring mitigation for the 132 feet of stream to be placed in a culvert and no mitigation for the
43 feet receiving bank stabilization. We have provided the USACE with documentation that the
stream proposed for impacts is of poor quality with low function. As a result, the USACE has
agreed to accept 1:1 mitigation for 132 linear feet of stream.
 The mitigation requested totals are 132 warm-water stream mitigation credits.
 Our USACE contact is Andy Williams of the Raleigh Regulatory Field Office
([e-mail]), and our NCDWR contact is Dave Wanucha of the Raleigh
Regional Office ([e-mail]).
 Please address the mitigation acceptance letter to Mr. Matthew Potter, NCDOT Rail Division
([e-mail], 1553 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1553).

Please let us know if you need any additional information or if you have any questions or changes in your
protocols since Axiom last made a mitigation request. We greatly appreciate your help.

Sincerely,
Sandy
