SECTION 1: INTRODUCTION
Georgia-Pacific Wood Products LLC (GP) owns and operates a Plywood manufacturing plant in Dudley, Wayne
County, North Carolina. GP operations are categorized under North American Industrial Classification System
(NAICS) code 321212 for softwood veneer and standard industrial classification (SIC) code of 2436 for softwood
veneer and plywood.
The facility is proposing to permit wastewater discharges from a wet deck operation.
PERMIT REQUEST AND PERMIT FEES
The purpose of this application is for a new individual National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)
Permit. The facility's stormwater discharges are currently covered under the North Carolina general NPDES
stormwater permit No. NCG210000 (Certificate of Coverage # NCG210185). The plant does not have a sludge
management plan because wastewater is not treated onsite.
This application is intended to satisfy all requirements of 15A NCAC 2H.0105. In accordance with the North Carolina
(NC) Division of Water Resource (DWR) fee schedule, the fees associated with new permit applications for Minor

Georgia Pacific Dudley NPDES Permit Application September 2021
SECTION 2: SITE INFORMATION
This section provides information on the site location,surrounding terrain,and description of industrial activities.
SITE LOCATION
The GP Dudley Complex is located in Dudley,North Carolina in Wayne County.The approximate Universal Transverse
Mercator (UTM) coordinates of the facility are Zone 17, 769.8 km east and 3,906.1 km north, at an elevation of
approximately 180 feet above mean sea level. Refer to the Area Map in Appendix A for additional details.
The GP Dudley Complex has 2 stormwater outfalls authorized under North Carolina Department of Environmental
Quality (NCDEQ) General Permit NCG210000 (COC NCG210168). A majority of the stormwater from the plywood
plant is discharged to Outfall 001 and a small portion of the facility stormwater is discharged through Outfall 002.
Stormwater outfall 002 will not be impacted by the proposed wet deck operation.
DESCRIPTION OF MANUFACTURING PROCESS
The GP Dudley Facility consists of a Chip-N-Saw (CNS) lumber mill and a Plywood manufacturing facility. The co-
located CNS Mill is separated from the Plywood Plant by a CSX rail spur that runs east to west with the manufacturing
areas of the Plywood Plant situated south of the spur.The Plywood Plant operates under North American Industry
Classification System (NACS) Code 321212, Softwood Veneer and Plywood Manufacturing, and employs
approximately 400 employees. The CNS Mill operates under NAICS Code 321213, Softwood Sawmill, and employs
approximately 170 employees. Production process areas at the plywood facility consist primarily of the logyard,
green end (lathes), dryers, presses, finishing/shipping, and the boiler. Major production processes for the CNS
include sawing(sawmill),drying(kilns),and finishing(planer mill).The facility operates 24 hours per day,7 days per
week.
The Plywood Plant receives pine and softwood logs and stores them on the log yard prior to processing.The logs are
debarked,cut to length,conditioned in steam-heated vats, peeled on the lathes,dried in the veneer dryers,graded
and formed into plywood panels by gluing and pressing.After pressing,the plywood sheets are trimmed, sanded,
and sorted for shipping. Finished product and manufacturing process residuals are shipped offsite via truck and rail.
The topography of the GP Dudley Plywood Plant and surrounding area is relatively flat.Most of the stormwater from
the Plywood Plant is discharged to Outfall 001 under North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality(NCDEQ)
General Permit NCG210000 (COC NCG210168). The outfall is located at the southwest corner of the property.
Stormwater runoff from the majority of the manufacturing areas of the Plywood site generally flows south or
southwest via sheet flow,soil ditches,or underground piping into the spill retention pond located along Brewington
Road on the south side of the Plant.The spill pond discharges into the Plant's stormwater treatment pond and then
to Outfall 001. Runoff from the northern part of the Plant flows west and then south via an open soil ditch directly
to Outfall 001.
Stormwater runoff from a grassed area on the northwest corner of the Plywood facility discharges to Outfall 002.
Outfall 002 is classified as substantially identical to Outfall 001.Outfall 002 discharges into an open ditch on the west
side of the railroad (located on the west side of the facility).This ditch converges with the discharge from Outfall
001,which discharges to an unnamed tributary of Brooks Swamp.
Page 5 of 24

Georgia Pacific Dudley NPDES Permit Application September 2021
The Plywood Plant's nondischarge wastewater permit (W00003380) requires that all categorical non-discharge
process wastewater and the effluent from the facility's oil water separator be recycled or discharged to the county
wastewater treatment facility(POTW).All sanitary wastewater is discharged to the POTW.
SITE MAP
A site map depicting the facility and surrounding areas is located in Appendix 1. The log storage area where the wet
deck operation will take place has been outlined in red and the proposed location of the settling basin is outlined in
blue. The facility outfall location has been denoted with a red star on the site map.
A topographic map that shows the terrain of the site and surrounding areas is included in Appendix 2.
SECTION 3: EFFLUENT DESCRIPTION AND TREATMENT
This section describes the effluent that will be generated from the wet decking operation. The section also details
the proposed method of wastewater treatment and disposal and engineering design analysis.
DESCRIPTION OF DISCHARGED WASTEWATER AND TREATMENT
Georgia-Pacific is proposing to permit discharge from a wet decking operation,which will be used to spray water
onto the log storage piles especially during warmer,dryer months. Water will be pumped from the stormwater
collection pond or from a groundwater well and then sprayed onto logs stockpiled on the wet deck via spray
nozzles. The wet decking pad will be paved with concrete and will be sloped in a manner that will ensure water
will flow into a detention/settling pond prior to discharge via Outfall 001, indicated on the site map in Appendix 1.
The wet decking operation will consist of four sprinkler heads,each with an approximate flow rate of 100 gallons
per minute(gpm). The calculated maximum flow rate is 0.576 million gallons per day(MGD),assuming 100 gpm
from each of four sprinkler heads for 1,440 minutes per day. No chemicals will be added for the wet decking
operation. A water flow line diagram is included in Appendix 3.
ESTIMATED EFFLUENT DATA
US EPA effluent limitations guidelines for Timber Products Processing(40 CFR 429),Subpart I,Wet Storage
Subcategory,states that there shall be no debris discharged from the wet decking operation and provides ranges
for effluent pH. As required by these federal effluent limitations guidelines,there will be no debris present in the
effluent and the pH will remain within the range of 6.0 to 9.0. To ensure that no debris will be present in the
discharge,all runoff associated with the wet decking operation will be routed to a settling pond prior to discharge.
In accordance with the Nuese River Basinwide Water Quality Plan,Brooks Swamp is classified as a NSW(Nutrient
Sensitive Water)which requires wastewater dischargers to set permitted nitrogen and phosphorus limits of 3 mg/I
and 1 mg/I,respectively. Based on the characteristics of the proposed wastewater stream and the design of the
proposed wet settling basin,effluent nitrogen and phosphorus quantities are expected to be well within these
specified limits.
The water withdrawal/discharge system is designed to have the option of operating as a single pass system to
prevent concentrations of BOD from increasing. The wet deck operation will have the option of pulling water out
of the collection pond during wet weather periods where the pond is turning over frequently or from a
groundwater well during drier periods. Additionally, incoming water will pass through a filter to minimize the
Page 6 of 24

Georgia Pacific Dudley NPDES Permit Application September 2021
amount of bark that is introduced to the settling basin. The facility will also have the option of diverting
wastewater to the spill pond to provide an additional pretreatment step and reduce solids in the permanent pool.
ENGINEERING DESIGN OF SETTLING POND
The runoff from the proposed wet decking operation will be diverted to a wet detention pond prior to discharge to
surface waters. The pond has been designed in accordance with USDA Soil Conservation Services Practice
Standard Code No.378 and the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources(NCDENR)
Practice Standards and Specifications for Sediment Basins. Appendix 4 includes a drawing of the proposed settling
pond and supporting calculations. The proposed pond is designed with a 3.3:1 length to width ratio,which is
greater than the recommended minimum of 2:1. The volume of the pond is 284,000 cubic feet and results in a
hydraulic residence time of 88.3 hours at maximum dry weather flows. Additionally,the facility will be designed
with the option of diverting wastewater to a 35,000 cubic foot spill pond to enhance solids removal and reduce the
cost of pond cleanouts.
SECTION 4: ENGINEERING ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0105, an Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) is required for any new
wastewater discharge. This section contains the components of the engineering alternatives analysis including
determination if the proposed discharge will be allowed, flow projections, evaluation of technically feasible
alternatives,and evaluation of economically feasible alternatives.
ALLOWABLE PROPOSED DISCHARGE
Prior to evaluating alternatives, GP made the determination that the proposed wastewater discharge would be
allowed. The following sections detail the evaluation that was conducted in order to confirm that the proposed
wastewater would be an allowable discharge. The restrictions that could be imposed on a proposed wastewater
discharge to surface waters include zero flow stream restrictions,receiving stream classifications, NPDES permitting
strategies listed in the Basinwide Water Quality Plans, impaired water and Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL)
classifications,and the presence of endangered species.
STREAM FLOW RESTRICTIONS
Specific stream restrictions are listed in 15A NCAC 2B.0206(d)(2)for oxygen-consuming wastewater in zero-flow
streams. In efforts to determine the 7Q10 flow at the proposed discharge location into Bennetts Creek, Mr.Curtis
Weaver,with United States Geological Services(USGS),was contacted. Mr.Weaver indicated that the low-flow
files at the USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center in Raleigh, NC did not indicate any determinations for the
specified point of interest. Low flow estimates were determined based on six index sites in the area of interest and
was estimated to have an average 7Q10 flow of 0.1 cubic feet per second. A copy of the correspondence with the
USGS is included in Appendix 5.
RECEIVING STREAM CLASSIFICATION RESTRICTIONS
The stream classification for Brooks Swamp is Water Supply IV(WS-IV)and NSW(Nutrient Sensitive Waters),which
requires wastewater dischargers to set permitted nitrogen and phosphorus limits of 3 mg/I and 1 mg/I,
respectively. Based on the characteristics of the proposed wastewater stream,effluent nitrogen and phosphorus
quantities should be well within these specified limits.
Page 7 of 24

Georgia Pacific Dudley NPDES Permit Application September 2021
Brooks Swamp is not listed as impaired on the 303(d)list and is not subject to any impending TMDLs according to
the NC DWR's website. However,Brooks Swamp is located in the Neuse River Basin which has a TMDL for nitrogen
and Fecal Coliform. Discharges associated with the proposed wet decking operation are not anticipated to include
nitrogen or bacteria.
ENDANGERED SPECIES
If endangered species are suspected to be present in the proposed discharge location,then additional restrictions
may be implemented for wastewater discharges in that area. To determine if any endangered species might be
present in the area of discharge to Brooks Swamp,an evaluation request was submitted the US Fish and Wildlife
Services—Raleigh Field Office.
According to US Fish and Wildlife Service's response,the proposed discharge would not likely adversely affect any
federally-listed endangered or threatened species,their formally designated critical habitat,or species currently
proposed for listing under the Act at the proposed wet decking location. Therefore,the requirements for section
7(a)(2)of the Endangered Species Act of 1973 were satisfied for this project.
The US Fish and Wildlife Services was, however,concerned about potential impacts on aquatic species,since they
are highly susceptible to sedimentation. Since GP proposes to utilize a pond to provide for settling of solids prior
to discharge,the proposed discharge is not expected to adversely impact aquatic species. The correspondence
ondence
with US Fish and Wildlife Services is included in Appendix 6.
ZONING
GP is currently operating a plywood manufacturing facility on Brewington Drive(Book 2495 Page 137)which is
zoned as'H-2'for heavy manufacturing. Since the facility is an existing located in an area zoned for heavy
manufacturing,the site and proposed discharge is consistent with local zoning ordinances.
Wayne County Planning Department has completed its review of the application and a completed Local
Government Review Form is included in Appendix 7.
FLOW PROJECTIONS
The population projections are not applicable to industrial facilities, but instead apply to domestic wastewater
production for evaluation of an increase or decrease in population. The projected wastewater flows for GP are only
dependent on the manufacturing operation and would not be affected by changes in population.
As previously discussed in this application,the projected wastewater flow is expected to be approximately 578,000
gallons per day.
TECHNOLOGICALLY FEASIBLE ALTERNATIVES
The section includes the evaluation of other technologically feasible alternatives for wastewater discharge. As listed
in the NC Division of Water Resource's Engineering Alternatives Analysis (EAA) Guidance Document, the
determination includes the evaluation of the technological feasibility of the following:
1. Connecting to an existing wastewater treatment plant
Page 8 of 24

Georgia Pacific Dudley NPDES Permit Application September 2021
2. Land application through spray irrigation
3. Reuse of wastewater
4. Surface water discharge through NPDES permitting
5. Combination of any of the alternatives
CONNECTION TO EXISTING WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
The GP facility currently discharges sanitary wastewater to the City of Goldsboro Water Reclamation Facility. If the
existing settling pond were diverted to the POTW, it is estimated that approximately 282,000,000 gallons of water
per year would be sent to the POTW. The estimate is based on 576,000 gallons per day plus the stormwater runoff.
A majority of the stormwater associated with the facility is conveyed to the stormwater pond prior to discharge.
Approximately 63 acres of the site area drains to the stormwater pond with approximately 56 (88%) of the acres
designated as impervious. The average annual rainfall for Dudley, NC is 48.8" per year,which results in a total of
approximately 78,000,000 gallons per year.See Appendix 4 for supporting calculations.
LAND APPLICATION
Soil types in the vicinity of the proposed wet decking operation were reviewed to evaluate the potential for disposing
of the wastewater via land application(or spray irrigation). GP owns farmland on a neighboring parcel of land. The
neighboring farmland consists of primarily the following soil types: NoA (Norfolk loamy sand 0-2% slope), NoB
(Norfolk loamy sand 2-6%slope),WaB(Wagram loamy sand),We(Weston loamy sand),and Bb(Bibb sandy loam).
According to the soils report obtained from USDA,a majority of the soil types are classified as well drained according
to the drainage class. Appendix 8 includes a mapfrom the USDA Custom Soil Resource Report which depicts the
g PP P P
various soil types and classification for wastewater disposal by irrigation.
Due to the speculative nature of this exercise, specific property tracts have not been identified yet for this
alternative;therefore, the necessary testing has not been performed. However,the most likely tract of land that
would be utilized is the GP owned farmland south of the facility. Based on the USDA soils report,the soil types are
conducive for spray irrigation. For cost estimation purposes, it is assumed that the highest application rate for low-
rate application can be met in the soils located in the property south of the facility. If the infiltration rate is lower,
then the costs to accomplish infiltration would be much higher.
The settling pond that is proposed to be used as the wet deck wastewater pond is currently utilized as the
stormwater collection and treatment pond for the facility. The pond would be required to be enlarged to ensure
that water is not discharged during heavy rain events. According to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Association(NOAA)Atlas 14,Volume 2,Version 3 for the Dudley, NC station,24-hr 25-yr precipitation estimates for
the GP facility are approximately 7.2 inches (Appendix 9). As discussed in the previous section, a majority of the
stormwater associated with the facility is conveyed to the stormwater pond prior to discharge. A storage basin
capable of holding 1.4 million cubic feet of water in addition to 77,184 ft3 of wastewater generated in 24 hours and
the regulatory required 2 foot freeboard to prevent a discharge during high intensity rain events will be required. In
order to utilize the existing pond,the dike walls would need to be extended^20'higher than the current height.
An application rate of 0.156 gallons per day per square foot (gpd/ft2) will be assumed to estimate the amount of
land required. Therefore,the application of 0.578 MGD would require at least 3,703,205 ft2 of property(85 acres).
Approximately 1.8 miles of piping would be required to transfer and apply the water over 85 acres.
Page 9 of 24

Georgia Pacific Dudley NPDES Permit Application September 2021
WASTEWATER REUSE
Reuse of water from wet decking operations is commonly utilized; however it does pose several disadvantages.
When wastewater from wet decking operations is continuously recirculated the level of BOD in the wastewater
continues to increase and debris from the operation begins clogging pumping and sprinkler heads. Additionally,the
pond will need to be enlarged as described in the Land Application Section.In addition to a large storage basin,some
form of land application will be required so that discharge does not occur during extended wet periods. For this
exercise,it is assumed that the water equivalent of approximately 1'of freeboard will be required to be land applied.
Based on the dimensions of the existing pond,approximately 530,000 gallons of water will be required to decrease
the storage basin by 1'.
SURFACE WATER DISCHARGE THROUGH NPDES PROGRAM
The GP facility is in close proximity to Brooks Swamp,which drains into the Neuse River. Wastewater associated
with the GP Wet Decking operation will include a combination of reused stormwater or groundwater that is
sprinkled on logs. Wastewater will pass through a filtration step and a settling pond prior to discharge. Feasibility
studies for discharge into Brooks Swamp have been discussed in prior sections.
The surface water discharge option will utilize an existing settling pond and minimal piping to transfer the water
from the settling pond to an unnamed tributary that drains into Brooks Swamp.
COMBINATION OF ALTERNATIVES
A combination of wastewater reuse with land application is being proposed for this operation. During wet periods,
stormwater collected in the settling pond will be utilized for the wet decking operation and during dryer periods
groundwater will be used to prevent concentration increases in the wastewater.
Discharge to surface waters is the least complicated option and will require the least amount of construction to
implement. Combination of land application with surface water discharge will be much more costly than utilizing
the surface water discharge option alone. The combination of land application with surface water discharge will be
comparable to the wastewater reuse option; therefore, the cost will be assumed to be equal to the wastewater
reuse option.
ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY OF ALTERNATIVES
This section addresses the economic feasibility of each of the technologically feasible engineering alternatives.
Those alternatives that were considered technologically feasible and evaluated in this section are land application,
wastewater reuse,and surface water discharge through the NPDES program. Each cost analysis includes the capital
cost,recurring cost,and lost opportunity costs. The cost estimates are determined assuming 20 years of operation.
The cost analyses are explained in detail below for each technologically feasible alternative.
CONNECTION TO EXISTING WASTEWATER TREATMENT PLANT
Appendix 10-1 includes cost estimate details for connecting to an existing wastewater treatment plant. The current
fee that GP pays for discharge to the POTW is $0.029/gal. The annual discharge volume is estimated to be
282,000,000 gallons which results in an annual cost of$8,178,000.
Page 10 of 24

Georgia Pacific Dudley NPDES Permit Application September 2021
LAND APPLICATION
Appendix 10-2 includes cost estimate details for land application. It is estimated that the purchase of 105 acres
would be necessary for disposal of wastewater via land application based on infiltration rates and setback
requirements. GP owns farmland adjacent to the manufacturing facility that appears to be appropriate for spray
irrigation.
Land Application costs include the cost of modifying the settling pond, a pump station, 1.8 miles of piping, and an
irrigation system capable of supplying water to 87 acres of land. The cost could be substantially more if soils in the
adjacent land need significant work to make them suitable for land application. The total present value cost analysis
for land application was found to be$2,966,514.
WASTEWATER REUSE
Appendix 10-3 includes cost estimation details for wastewater reuse. A combination of wastewater reuse and land
application was considered to provide options during extended periods of increased precipitation. An application
rate of 100 gpm is assumed and that the application will be split over three eight hour days,resulting in an application
rate of 38,300 gallons per day. Using the same assumptions as the land application alternative, the wastewater
reuse alternative will require approximately six acres of property and an additional three acres of property for
setbacks. In addition to the land purchase, costs for the wastewater reuse option include 1.0 miles of piping,
modification of the settling basin, a pump station, irrigation systems, and ancillary equipment. The total present
value cost analysis for wastewater resuse was found to be$2,301,148.
SURFACE WATER DISCHARGE THROUGH NPDES PROGRAM
Appendix 10-4 includes cost estimation details for surface water discharge through the NPDES program. Discharge
through the NPDES program will require a settling basin to remove the potential for discharge of solids. The existing
stormwater pond is adequately designed to provide the necessary retention time to meet the categorical standards
associated with wet decking operations. The total present value cost analysis for discharge through the NPDES
program was found to be$186,942.
RESULTS OF ECONOMIC FEASIBILITY ALTERNATIVES
A summary the costs of each alternative considered are displayed in the table below.
Total Cost
Alternative
(assumes 20 years of operation)
Connection to POTW $8,178,000
Land Application $2,966,514
Wastewater Reuse $2,301,148
Surface Water Discharge(NPDES) $186,942
The alternative with the least economic impact is surface water discharge into Brooks Swamp. The discharge
alternative is about 10%of the cost of the next closest alternative(wastewater reuse). The most expensive option
is connection to a POTW.

Subject: USGS response to DWR USGS Low Flows request#2021-141 (dated 2021/07/29)for Brooks Swamp
Wayne County...RE: [EXTERNAL] Low-flow request approval
Mr.Coury,
In response to your inquiry about the low-flow characteristics for a location on Brooks Swamp between NC Secondary
Road 1938 and U.S. Highway 117 Alternate near Dudley in southern Wayne County,the following information is
provided:
A check of the low-flow files here at the USGS South Atlantic Water Science Center(Raleigh office) indicates a previous
low-flow determination for the point of interest, identified by the lat/long coordinates(35.243648,-78.045896)
provided via email dated 07/29/2021 from the DWR USGS Low Flow portal following your request
submission. Completed in January 1988, low-flow characteristics were determined for an identical location on Buck
Swamp above US 117 near Mt. Olive(station id 0208830700,drainage area at 4.6 sqmi). The low-flow discharges were
estimated based on transfer of flow characteristics from a downstream USGS partial-record site on Buck Swamp near
Dudley(station id 02088310, drainage area at 15.5 sqmi).
For the record: Internal site information at the USGS Raleigh office indicates a change in the stream name at some point
in the past(date unknown). Whereas this stream was previously known as Buck Swamp,the site information indicates
the name was changed to Brooks Swamp. This current stream name is consistent with that shown for the basin on the
USGS topographical quadrangle map(Mount Olive)for the area around this stream.
No USGS discharge records are known to exist for the point of interest.
In the absence of site-specific discharge records sufficient for a low-flow analysis, estimates of low-flow characteristics at
ungaged locations are determined by assessing a range in the low-flow yields (expressed as flow per square
mile drainage area, or cfsm)at nearby sites where estimates have previously been determined.
A basin delineation completed using the online USGS StreamStats application for North Carolina
(https://streamstats.usgs.gov/ss/) indicates the drainage area for the point of interest(StreamStats adjusted
coordinates 35.24359,-78.04589 NAD83) is 4.18 sqmi.
For streams in southern Wayne County, low-flow characteristics published by the USGS are provided in the following
reports:
(1)The first is a statewide report completed in the early 1990's. It is USGS Water-Supply Paper 2403, "Low-flow
characteristics of streams in North Carolina" (Giese and Mason, 1993). An online version of the report is available at
http://pubs.usgs.gov/wsp/2403/report.pdf. The report provides the low-flow characteristics(based on data through
1988)via regional relations and at-site values for sites with drainage basins between 1 and 400 sqmi and not considered
or known to be affected by regulation and/or diversions.
(2)The second is a basin-wide report for the Neuse River basin published in 1998. It is USGS Water-Resources
Investigations Report 98-4135, "Low-flow characteristics and discharge profiles for selected streams in the Neuse River
1

basin, North Carolina" (Weaver, 1998). The report is available online at
http://pubs.usgs.gov/wri/1998/4135/report.pdf. This report provides low-flow characteristics(based on data through
1996)for USGS continuous-and partial-record sites in the Neuse River basin where sufficient data was available for
analyses. However,the report does not provide statistical relations for estimating low-flow characteristics at ungaged
locations.
(3)The third is a basin-wide report for the Cape Fear River basin published in 2001. It is USGS Water-Resources
Investigations Report 01-4094,"Low-flow characteristics and discharge profiles for selected streams in the Cape Fear
River Basin, North Carolina,through 1998 " (Weaver and Pope,2001). An online version of the report is available
through http://nc.water.usgs.gov/reports/wri014094/. The report provides the low-flow characteristics(based on data
through 1998)for continuous-record gaging stations and partial-record sites within the Cape Fear River basin. The
report also provides low-flow discharge profiles (7Q10, 30Q2,winter 7010,and 7Q2)for the Cape Fear River and
selected tributaries within the basin.
(4)The fourth is a statewide report published in March 2015. It is USGS Scientific Investigations Report 2015-5001,
"Low-flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics for selected USGS continuous-record streamgaging stations in
North Carolina through 2012"(Weaver, 2015). The report is available online at
http://pubs.usgs.gov/sir/2015/5001/. The report provides updated low-flow characteristics and flow-duration statistics
for 266 active (as of 2012 water year)and discontinued streamgages across the state where a minimum of 10 climatic
years discharge records were available for flow analyses.
Low-flow characteristics estimated for point of interest:
Inspection of the reports indicates the presence of six(6) nearby selected USGS partial-record sites (4)and continuous-
record streamgages(2) in the general vicinity of the point of interest where low-flow characteristics were
published. Among these 6 index sites,the low-flow discharge yields for the indicated flow statistics are as follows:
Annual 7Q10 low-flow yields==>from 0 to 0.11 cfsm (average about 0.025 cfsm, median about 0.004 cfsm) (zero flow at
2 of 6 index sites)
Annual 30Q2 low-flow yields==>from 0 to 0.26 cfsm (average about 0.093 cfsm, median about 0.078 cfsm)(zero flow at
2 of 6 index sites)
Winter 7Q10 low-flow yields==>from 0 to 0.2 cfsm (average about 0.069 cfsm, median about 0.059 cfsm)(zero flow at
2 of 6 index sites)
Annual 7Q2 low-flow yields==>from 0 to 0.19 cfsm (average about 0.055 cfsm, median about 0.029 cfsm)(zero flow at
2 of 6 index sites)
Average annual discharge yields==>from 1.2 to 1.3 cfsm (both average and median about 1.2 cfsm)
Application of the above range in yields to the drainage area (4.18 sqmi)for the point of interest results in the following
estimated low-flow discharges:
Annual 7Q10 low-flow discharges==>from 0 to 0.46 cfs (average about 0.1 cfs, median about 0.017 cfs) 4 rounded
down to zero flow
Annual 30Q2 low-flow discharges==>from 0 to 1.1 cfs(average about 0.39 cfs, median about 0.33 cfs)
Winter 7Q10 low-flow discharges==>from 0 to 0.84 cfs(average about 0.29 cfs, median about 0.25 cfs)
Annual 7Q2 low-flow discharges==>from 0 to 0.79 cfs(average about 0.23 cfs, median about 0.12 cfs)
Average annual discharge discharges==>from 5 to 5.4 cfs(both average and median about 5 cfs)
Please note there are large differences between the average and median statistics (particularly for the annual minimum
7-day series),which is due to wide ranges in the low-flow yields for each of the statistics. Much of these large ranges are
2

' di
scontinued driven by high yields at one of the index sites,which is a nearby d scontlnued continuous record streamgage
(station id 02107600, drainage area 47.5 sqmi).
Please note:
(1)The estimated flows are provided in units of cubic feet per second (cfs).
(2)The low-flow yields provided above are rounded to 2 significant figures. Estimated low-flow discharges less than 1
cfs are rounded to 2 significant figures. If between 1 and 100 cfs,then rounded to 1 decimal place; if greater than 100,
then rounded to the nearest whole number(zero decimal places).
(3)The information provided in this message is based on a preliminary assessment and considered provisional, subject
to revision pending collection of future data and further analyses.
These provisional streamflow statistics are provided via the DWR USGS Low Flows cooperative agreement between
the USGS and the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality, Division of Water Resources.
Hope this information is helpful.
Thank you.

Re: Plywood Manufacturing Facility —Wayne County
Dear Mr. Cowry:
This letter is to inform you that the Service has established an on-line project planning and
consultation process which assists developers and consultants in determining whether a
federally-listed species or designated critical habitat may be affected by a proposed project. For
future projects, please visit the Raleigh Field Office's project planning website at
https://www.fws.gov/raleigh/pp.html. If you are only searching for a list of species that may be
present in the project's Action Area, then you may use the Service's Information,Planning, and
Consultation System(IPaC)website to determine if any listed, proposed,or candidate species
may be present in the Action Area and generate a species list. The IPaC website may be viewed
at https://ecos.fws.gov/ipac/. The IPaC web site contains a complete and frequently updated list
of all endangered threatened species protected by the provisions of the Endangered Species Act
of 1973, as amended(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)(Act), a list of federal species of concern' that are
known to occur in each county in North Carolina, and other resources.
Section 7 of the Act requires that all federal agencies (or their designated non-federal
representative), in consultation with the Service, insure that any action federally authorized,
funded,or carried out by such agencies is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any
federally-listed endangered or threatened species. A biological assessment or evaluation may be
prepared to fulfill that requirement and in determining whether additional consultation with the
Service is necessary. In addition to the federally-protected species list, information on the
species' life histories and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or
'The term "federal species of concern"refers to those species which the Service believes might be in need of
concentrated conservation actions. Federal species of concern receive no legal protection and their designation
does not necessarily imply that the species will eventually be proposed for listing as a federally endangered or
threatened species. However,we recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid or minimize adverse
impacts to federal species of concern.

evaluation and can be found on our web page at http://www.fws.gov/raleigh. Please check the
web site often for updated information or changes.
If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally-listed species known to be
present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to
adversely affect those species. As such,we recommend that surveys be conducted to determine
the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of North Carolina Natural
Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys.
If you determine that the proposed action may affect(i.e., likely to adversely affect or not likely
to adversely affect)a federally-protected species, you should notify this office with your
determination,the results of your surveys, survey methodologies, and an analysis of the effects
of the action on listed species, including consideration of direct,indirect, and cumulative effects,
before conducting any activities that might affect the species. If you determine that the proposed
action will have no effect(i.e., no beneficial or adverse, direct or indirect effect)on federally
listed species, then you are not required to contact our office for concurrence (unless an
Environmental Impact Statement is prepared). However,you should maintain a complete record
of the assessment, including steps leading to your determination of effect,the qualified personnel
conducting the assessment, habitat conditions, site photographs, and any other related articles.
With regard to the above-referenced project,we offer the following remarks. Our comments are
submitted pursuant to, and in accordance with,provisions of the Endangered Species Act.
Based on the information provided and other information available, it appears that the proposed
action is not likely to adversely affect any federally-listed endangered or threatened species, their
formally designated critical habitat,or species currently proposed for listing under the Act at
these sites. We believe that the requirements of section 7(a)(2) of the Act have been satisfied for
your project. Please remember that obligations under section 7 consultation must be
reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect
listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered; (2)this action is
subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review; or, (3)a new species
is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by the identified action.
However,the Service is concerned about the potential impacts the proposed action might have
on aquatic species. Aquatic resources are highly susceptible to sedimentation. Therefore, we
recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid adverse impacts to aquatic species,
including implementing directional boring methods and stringent sediment and erosion control
measures. An erosion and sedimentation control plan should be submitted to and approved by
the North Carolina Division of Land Resources, Land Quality Section prior to construction.
Erosion and sedimentation controls should be installed and maintained between the construction
site and any nearby down-gradient surface waters. In addition,we recommend maintaining
natural,vegetated buffers on all streams and creeks adjacent to the project site.
The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission has developed a Guidance Memorandum (a
copy can be found on our website at(http://www.fws.gov/raleigh)to address and mitigate
secondary and cumulative impacts to aquatic and terrestrial wildlife resources and water quality.

We recommend that you consider this document in the development of your projects and in
completing an initiation package for consultation(if necessary).
We hope you find our web page useful and informative and that following the process described
above will reduce the time required, and eliminate the need, for general correspondence for
species' lists. If you have any questions or comments, please contact John Ellis of this office at
[phone] ext. 26.

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planningin surveyareas.
Y
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments(http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/)and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nres)or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist(http://www.nres.usda.gov/wps/portal/nres/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nres142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as
septic tank absorption fields.A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to
basements or underground installations.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States
Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the
Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

How Soil Surveys Are Made
Soil surveys are made to provide information about the soils and miscellaneous
areas in a specific area. They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous
areas and their location on the landscape and tables that show soil properties and
limitations affecting various uses. Soil scientists observed the steepness, length,
and shape of the slopes; the general pattern of drainage;the kinds of crops and
native plants; and the kinds of bedrock. They observed and described many soil
profiles.A soil profile is the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a soil. The
profile extends from the surface down into the unconsolidated material in which the
soil formed or from the surface down to bedrock.The unconsolidated material is
devoid of roots and other living organisms and has not been changed by other
biological activity.
Currently, soils are mapped according to the boundaries of major land resource
areas (MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that
share common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate,water
resources, soils, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Soil survey
areas typically consist of parts of one or more MLRA.
The soils and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur in an orderly pattern that
is related to the geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural vegetation of the
area. Each kind of soil and miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind
of landform or with a segment of the landform. By observing the soils and
miscellaneous areas in the survey area and relating their position to specific
segments of the landform, a soil scientist develops a concept, or model, of how they
were formed. Thus, during mapping,this model enables the soil scientist to predict
with a considerable degree of accuracy the kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a
specific location on the landscape.
Commonly, individual soils on the landscape merge into one another as their
characteristics gradually change. To construct an accurate soil map, however, soil
scientists must determine the boundaries between the soils. They can observe only
a limited number of soil profiles. Nevertheless,these observations, supplemented
by an understanding of the soil-vegetation-landscape relationship, are sufficient to
verify predictions of the kinds of soil in an area and to determine the boundaries.
Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the soil profiles that they studied.They
noted soil color,texture, size and shape of soil aggregates, kind and amount of rock
fragments, distribution of plant roots, reaction, and other features that enable them
to identify soils. After describing the soils in the survey area and determining their
properties, the soil scientists assigned the soils to taxonomic classes (units).
Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each taxonomic class has a set of soil
characteristics with precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a basis for
comparison to classify soils systematically. Soil taxonomy, the system of taxonomic
classification used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind and character
of soil properties and the arrangement of horizons within the profile.After the soil
5

Custom Soil Resource Report
scientists classified and named the soils in the survey area, they compared the
individual soils with similar soils in the same taxonomic class in other areas so that
they could confirm data and assemble additional data based on experience and
research.
The objective of soil mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components; the
objective is to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that
have similar use and management requirements. Each map unit is defined by a
unique combination of soil components and/or miscellaneous areas in predictable
proportions. Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components
of the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way
diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data.The delineation of such
landforms and landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite
investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas.
Soil scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a soil map.
The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of
mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape,
and experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the
soil-landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the soils at
specific locations. Once the soil-landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller
number of measurements of individual soil properties are made and recorded.
These measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color,
depth to bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for
content of sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each soil
typically vary from one point to another across the landscape.
Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of
characteristics for the components. The aggregated values are presented. Direct
measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit
component.Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other
properties.
While a soil survey is in progress, samples of some of the soils in the area generally
are collected for laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil scientists
interpret the data from these analyses and tests as well as the field-observed
characteristics and the soil properties to determine the expected behavior of the
soils under different uses. Interpretations for all of the soils are field tested through
observation of the soils in different uses and under different levels of management.
Some interpretations are modified to fit local conditions, and some new
interpretations are developed to meet local needs. Data are assembled from other
sources, such as research information, production records, and field experience of
specialists. For example, data on crop yields under defined levels of management
are assembled from farm records and from field or plot experiments on the same
kinds of soil.
Predictions about soil behavior are based not only on soil properties but also on
such variables as climate and biological activity. Soil conditions are predictable over
long periods of time, but they are not predictable from year to year. For example,
soil scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that a given soil will
have a high water table within certain depths in most years, but they cannot predict
that a high water table will always be at a specific level in the soil on a specific date.
After soil scientists located and identified the significant natural bodies of soil in the
survey area, they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial photographs and
6

identified each as a specific map unit.Aerial photographs show trees, buildings,
fields, roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating boundaries accurately.

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the
soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along
with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named
according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic
class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the
landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the
characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some
observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class.
Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without
including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made
up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor
components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils.
Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the
map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called
11

Custom Soil Resource Report
noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components.They
generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the
scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas
are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a
given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit
descriptions along with some characteristics of each.A few areas of minor
components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not
mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it
was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and
miscellaneous areas on the landscape.
The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the
usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate
pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or
landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The
delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however,
onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous
areas.
An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions.
Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil
properties and qualities.
Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major
horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement.
Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness,
salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the
basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas
shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase
commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example,Alpha
silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas.
These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups.
A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate
pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps.
The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar
in all areas. Alpha-Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example.
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present
or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered
practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The
pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat
similar.Alpha-Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas
that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar
interpretations can be made for use and management.The pattern and proportion
of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform.An area can

be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made
up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil
material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.

1 Precipitation frequency(PF)estimates in this table are based on frequency analysis of partial duration series(PDS).
Numbers in parenthesis are PF estimates at lower and upper bounds of the 90%confidence interval.The probability that precipitation frequency estimates
(for a given duration and average recurrence interval)will be greater than the upper bound(or less than the lower bound)is 5%.Estimates at upper bounds
are not checked against probable maximum precipitation(PMP)estimates and may be higher than currently valid PMP values.
Please refer to NOAA Atlas 14 document for more information.
