Mitigation Plan for River Oaks - Johnston County
The following report is a synopsis of the proposed mitigation plan for the River Oaks
project that is currently under review. Based on the overall amount of 404 wetlands
(80-T'-/- acres) adjacent to 3000 + /- feet of Swift Creek, the owners are proposing onsite
mitigation in lieu of payment into a wetlands /perennial stream bank. The plan will
require an additional 65 foot buffer added to the 100 foot current buffer on Swift Creek to
be placed into a recorded conservation easement as specified by AC of E's model
easement. The remaining wetlands will be retained as a permanent open space tor the
project as required through Johnston County Planning. if needed additional provisions
can be added to the permanent open space to clarify all uses or restriction within these
proposed features of the mitigation plan as derived from the 2005 approved JD by the
Army Corps of Engineers. The conservation easement can be recorded one (1) month
after permits are released for the crossing which will include the remaining open space
area of 404 wetlands with an updated J. D. as was discussed. Our mitigation area
provides a contiguous zone of high quality wetlands adjacent to Swift Creek that will
significantly protect water quality and the stretch of Swift Creek. With these "high
quality" wetlands and perennial stream identified and placed within a conservation
easement and a permanent open space, the owners submit that the acreage as intrinsic
value so that additional monetary compensation is not needed. The current crossing in

review will complete the project and provide the necessary acreages of 404 Wetlands or
perennial streams,
Prepared by Neal Floyd for owners.
