Nature of Impact Site: Urban, heavily developed with commercial and residential areas
Area: 8.31 acres
Impacts: Culverting of 334 linear feet of perennial stream, relocation of 155.5 linear feet of perennial stream, and filling of 0.12 acre of
wetlands for construction of a new road intersection.
Avoidance and Minimization: Questionable. Applicant is proposing to relocate 155.5 If of stream through a constructed channel
completely lined with rip rap. Stream function will be lost. WSRO recommends that this proposal be rejected. Applicant should design
the relocation channel utilizing natural stream channel design parameters.
Mitigation: Required. Applicant proposes to use the in lieu fee program (NGEEP) to mitigate for impacts to 489.5 If of streams and
0.12 acre of wetlands at a 1:1 ratio.
Buffer Impacts: None
Stormwater Management Plan: WSRO recommends requirement of a stormwater management plan for this project, particularly with
regard to the proposed relocated stream channel.
DWQ Authorization: Individual Certification
Corresponding 404 Permit: Individual Permit
Addendum: The plan for the relocated stream channel, utilizing natural stream channel design, was submitted to the Wetlands/401
Central Office by the City of Winston-Salem on 04/23/2007 and received in WSRO on 04/30/2007. Reviewed by WSRO on
05/16/2007. The submitted stream restoration design is acceptable.
