Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application: The site currently contains fallow agricultural fields while Updated 11/1/2005 Page 2 of 9 farms and residential subdivisions characterize the general land use in the vicinity of the pro,~ect 10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The project involves construction of access roads one of which crosses the dam of pond that was recently drained Heav~quipment typical of rg_ading_and road construction will be used to complete the project 11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The purpose of the project is to provide access for the devel~ment of lots for single family homes IV. Prior Project History If jurisdictional determinations and/or permits have been requested and/or obtained for this project (including all prior phases of the same subdivision) in the past, please explain. Include the USAGE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits, certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project, list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.I.P. project, along with construction schedules. Burdette Land Consulting Inc. (BLC) first conducted a buffer evaluation of the pond present on the property in January 2006. We found the pond to be buffered based on the presence of a perennial stream channel below the pond dam. In order to minimize the impact of the buffered pond to the property and impacts associated with a road crossing to access the back portion of the property the applicant decided to align the main access road across the pond dam Since NCDOT will not accept roads located on dams the applicant decided to drain the pond in order to use the dam for the road crossing and allow the riparian buffer to re-establish along_the stream channel that re-forms through the pond area. BLC advised the applicant through the project engineer Trenton Stewart of Arcadia En~ineerin~, to pump the pond down first to place fill material removed from the dam on high ground, and place a tem~orar~ culvert the width of the dam until permits for the subdivision were obtained. However the applicant misunderstood and installed a permanent culvert for the road crossing. BLC delineated the wetland that formed in the bottom of the former pond on June 12, 2007 and located jurisdictional wetland area filled during installation of the culvert. Upland and wetland data forms and Figure 2 are attached in support of the wetland delineation. Figure 2 provides the location of the site on the applicable Wake County Soil Survey map. BLC's wetland delineation has not yet been verified by the USAGE Please contact us as soon as possible if a field meeting is necessary to verify the delineation V. Future Project Plans Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work, and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application. Future permit requests are not anticipated for this project Updated 11/1/2005 Page 3 of 9 VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts, permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate. Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: The proposed impacts consist of a partially completed road crossing on the dam of a drained pond. Although the culvert and rip rah for the road crossing_occu~y 112 linear feet of stream channel, 72 linear feet of this had already by impacted bathe pond dam. Installation of the culvert resulted in 0.044 acre of impacts to the wetland within the former fond bottom. 2. Individually list wetland impacts.

Isolated Waters Do any isolated waters exist on the property? ^ Yes ®No Describe all impacts to isolated waters, and include the type of water (wetland or stream) and the size of the proposed impact (acres or linear feet). Please note that this section only applies to waters that have specifically been determined to be isolated by the USACE. 8. Pond Creation If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application. Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ^ uplands ^ stream ^ wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., darn embankment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): NA Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): Current land use in the vicinity of the pond: NA Size of watershed draining to pond: NA Expected pond surface area: NA VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. The project engineer designed Updated 11/1/2005 Page 5 of 9 areas of men space around stream channels and wetlands on the property to avoid impacts to these features where possible The former pond and its associated stream channel bisect the propert~makin~ the proposed road crossing necessary to access the back portion of the property. As described earlier the road was located on the pond dam to minimize impacts to the stream channel Due to several feet difference in elevation between the former pond bottom and the perennial stream channel located at the base of the dam creating a slope that is much greater than 2°Io the culvert pipe was not buried to avoid headcutting of the newly forming stream channel in the pond bottom VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. USAGE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at http://h2o. enr.state. nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html. 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. Since the applicant avoided and minimized impacts to stream channels and wetlands to the maximum extent practicable and the proposed stream channel (112 LF) and wetland (0 044 AC) impacts are less than the 150 linear foot stream channel and 0.10 acre wetland thresholds for mitigation utilized by NCDWQ and the USAGE in most cases, BLC believes that stream channel and wetland mitigation should not be required. Updated 11/1/2005 Page 6 of 9 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page five and provide the following information: Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): NA Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): NA Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ) 1. Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state/local) funds or the use of public (federal/state) land? Yes ^ No 2. If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)? Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA coordinator at (919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation. Yes ^ No ^ 3. If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ^ No ^ X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ) It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the applicant's discretion. 1. Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 02B .0243 (Catawba) 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )? Yes ® No ^ Updated 11 / 1 /2005 Page 7 of 9 2. If "yes", identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer multipliers. Zone* Impact (s uare feet) Multiplier Required Miti ation 1 6,565 3 (2 for Catawba) NA 2 3,196 1.5 NA Total 9,761 NA * Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendiculaz from the top of the near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1. 3. If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation of Property, Riparian Buffer Restoration /Enhancement, or Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0244, or .0260. Since the proposed road crossing_impacts less than 1/3 acre of riparian buffer and 150 linear feet of stream channel, BLC believes that buffer mitigation should not be rewired XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ) Describe impervious acreage (existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site. Discuss Stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands downstream from the property. If percent impervious surface exceeds 20%, please provide calculations demonstrating total proposed impervious level. The site does not currently contain impervious acreage Due to the large lot size required for on-site wastewater disposal, the percent impervious surface is not expected to exceed 20°Io. Maintenance of riparian buffers is expected protect surface waters and wetlands downstream from the property. XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ) Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (port-discharge or discharge) of wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility. Wastewater generated from the~roposed project will be disposed of through individual, on-site septic systems approved by Wake County XIII. Violations (required by DWQ) Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules? Yes ® No ^ Is this an after-the-fact permit application? Yes ® No ^ Updated 11/1/2005 Page 8 of 9 XIV. Cumulative Impacts (required by DWQ) Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in additional development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality? Yes ^ No If yes, please submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with the most recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality policy posted on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. If no, please provide a short narrative description: The proposed infrastructure serves only the proposed residential subdivision; therefore, it is not anticipated to result in additional development. XV. Other Circumstances (Optional): It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
