Dear Ms. Higgins:
Please find the attached Courtesy Copy of the Pre-Construction Notification Application for the
above referenced project. A g-ayel storage yard is located on the eastern portion of the site. A
gravel employee parking lot for the South Atlantic Galvanizing facility (immediately west of the
site) is located on the western portion of the site. The remainder of the site consits of wooded
land. Structures are not located on the site. Proposed development at the site includes a two
phase expansion of the existing gravel storage yard. The first phase conlste of the addition of
102,000 square feet of gravel storage yard and the second phase conslsts of a 45,000 square
feet expansion of the gravel storage yard.
On behalf of the South Atlantic Galvanizing, I am providing a Courtesy Copy of the NWP 39 to
authorize the permanertt impact (fill) to 0.0099 acres (430 square feet) of wetland. Streams or
associated buffers will not be impacted by the proposed project. Based on the proposed
Impacts being less then 0.10 acres of wetlands, mitigation should not be required. It is our
understanding that written authorization of the 401 Water Quality Certification is not required.
The stormwater management plan is being mailed to the NCDENR for review and is not
Included as part of the application.
Please feel free to contact me at (336) 856 -7150 if you have any questions concerning this
project or if additional information is required. Thank you in advance for y r timely

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
ECS performed a stream/wetland delineation at the site on June 16, 2013 (report attached). The storage yard expansion
design is based on the stream/wetland delineation to avoid the majority of wetlands located on the site. Additionally, the
second phase of the storage yard expansion (a 45,000 square feet addition) has also been designed to avoid wetlands
located on the site.
Currently, tractor trailers and other trucks are being unloaded/loaded on the edge of Steel Way Drive. Additionally, the only
access to the exisiting storage yard from the South Atlantic Galvanizing facility is to use Steel Way Drive. The site
development plan has been designed to eliminate safety concerns assoicated with pedestrian, vehicular traffic and forklift
operators utilizing the same road. The length and width of the proposed storage yard expansion has been designed to safely
accommodate material loadinglunloading, trucks ability to turn around and material storage. Furthermore, the shape of the
storage yard expansion will allow multiple trucks to be loaded/unloaded at the same time.
The grade of the proposed storage yard area must be designed at the same grade as the existing gravel storage yard and the
South Atlantic Galvanizing facility. Proposed slopes in the vicinity of the wetlands have been designed to be 2:1. The use of
retaining walls to avoid or minimze impacts to wetlands is not economically feasible.
A total of 0.45 acres of wetlands east on the site. The remaining 0.4401 acres of wetlands are being avoided.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
The clearing/grading limits will be marked and staked in the field. Silt fencing will be installed to prevent impacts to down -
gradient streams and wetlands.

Steel Way Drive - Approximate 11.7 Acre Tract
Alamance County, North Carolina
ECS Project No. 09 -22791
Dear Mr. Akers:
ECS Carolinas, LLP (ECS) is pleased to submit this report of the jurisdictional waters/wetland
delineation for the site located south of Steel Way Drive in Alamance County, North Carolina.
This report summarizes our findings for the site.
Background
The site is located south of Steel Way Drive in Alamance County, North Carolina (Figure 1).
The site is approximately 11.7 acres in size and is identified by the Alamance County GIS as
PIN 162389. The site is developed with a gravel storage area for a steel galvanizing facility,
located on the adjacent property west of the site. The remainder of the site contains wooded
land. The site is being evaluated for proposed expansion of the storage area. South Atlantic
Galvanizing, Steel Way Drive and wooded land are located on adjacent properties. ECS was
contracted to delineate jurisdictional waters including ponds, streams and wetlands on the site.
The site boundaries were not marked in the field at the time of our site visit.
Wetlands are defined by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and the United States
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) as "those areas that are inundated or saturated by
surface or groundwater at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and under normal
circumstances, do support a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil
conditions." In order for an area to be classified as wetland, hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils,
and wetland hydrology indicators must be present.
Literature Review
We reviewed the USGS Topographic Map, the Soil Survey of Alamance County and the
Geologic Map of North Carolina to obtain information regarding the site.
• The USGS Topographic Map (Figure 1) depicts a drainage swale that could contain streams
or wetlands on the site. Surface waters are not shown on the site. An unnamed tributary to
Motes Creek is located approximately 400 feet south of the site. Elevations on the site range
from approximately 650 feet above mean sea level (MSL) near the northern boundary to

ECS Project 09 -22791
June 24, 2013
approximately 610 feet above MSL near the southern boundary. Surface drainage appears
to generally flow to the south toward the unnamed tributary to Motes Creek.
The USDA Soil Survey of Alamance County (Figure 2) indicates that soils on the site have
been mapped as Colfax silt loam (Cf), Herndon silt loam (HdB), Orange silt loam (OaB) and
Worsham silt loam (We). The Colfax soil series consists of somewhat poorly drained,
moderately permeable soils that occur on divides at the base of hills and side slopes of
piedmont uplands. The Hemdon soil series consists of well drained, moderately permeable
soils that occur on gently sloping to moderately steep piedmont uplands. The Orange soil
series consist of somewhat poorly drained to moderately well drained, very slow to slow
lypermeabie soils that occur on piedmont uplands. The Worsham soil series consists of
poorly drained, moderately permeable soils that occur in depressions, at heads of drains, at
the base of slopes and on upland flats of the piedmont plateau. The Colfax and Worsham
soil series are identified on the Alamance County hydric soils lists. The Hemdon and
Orange soil series are not identified on the Alamance County hydric soils list.
The Geologic Map of North Carolina indicates that the site is located in the Piedmont
Physiographic Province. In general, shallow unconfined groundwater movement within the
overlying soils is controlled largely by topographic gradients. Recharge occurs primarily by
infiltration along higher elevations and typically discharges into streams or other surface
water bodies. The elevation of the shallow water table is transient and can vary with
seasonal fluctuations in precipitation. Movement in this water table is generally from higher
to lower elevations. As such, shallow groundwater would be expected to flow beneath the
site towards the unnamed tributary to Motes Creek.
Site Reconnaissance
ECS conducted the site reconnaissance on June 16, 2013. During the reconnaissance, the site
was observed for evidence of streams, ponds and wetlands. Ponds are not located on the site.
Wetland hydrology indicators, hydrophoc vegetation and hydric soils were observed in a
drainage swale located on the western portion of the site. The wetlands are separated from the
uplands by distinct topographic, vegetation and/or soil breaks. Wetland Determination Data
Forms document the conditions encountered on the site. The wetlands were marked in the field
with red and white striped surveyor tape.
A marginal drainage feature is located within the wetlands on the western portion of the site.
Portions of the marginal drainage feature contained a defined bed and banks, meanders and
hydric soils. The feature contained a discontinuous ordinary high water mark. The marginal
drainage feature did not contain flowing water or evidence of aquatic life at the time of our site
visit. Based on our observations and the North Carolina Department of Environment and
Natural Resources - Division of Water Quality (NCDENR -DWQ) Stream Identification Form
Version 4.11 (attached), the feature will be considered a drainage pattern through a wetland and
not a jurisdictional stream by the USACE and /or the NCDENR -DWQ. Verification of the feature
by the USACE and the NCDENR -DWQ would be required to determine if the feature is a
jurisdictional stream and /or subject to NCDENR -DWQ stream buffer regulations.

Figure 3 shows the approximate locations of the site, wetlands, marginal stream feature data
points and our flag numbers. Figure 3 is based on our field notes and should only be used for
preliminary planning purposes. We recommend that the delineation be verified by the USACE
and NCDENR -DWQ. The delineation, including our stream designations, is subject to change
based on the agency verification(s). Following the verification(s), the flags should be surveyed
to determine the exact location and extent of the jurisdictional areas.
Watershed Classification
A marginal drainage feature is located within the wetland on the western portion of the site. It is
the opinion of ECS that the feature is not a jurisdictional stream subject to vegetative stream
buffers. However, concurrence of the feature from the USACE and NCDENR -DWQ will be
required to determine if the feature is regulated as a stream and /or subject to buffer regulations.
According to the NCDENR -DWQ, the site is located in the Cape Fear River Basin in an area
that has been classified as WS -V, Nutrient Sensitive Waters (NSW). Based on the NCDENR -
DWQ watershed classification, mandatory state vegetative buffers are required adjacent to any
stream located on the site. The width of the vegetative buffer is dependant on the density of the
impervious surfaces that will be associated with the development of the site, In addition, local
buffer requirements may apply.
Additional Considerations
The site is located in the Jordan Lake Watershed. Riparian areas on all sides of surface waters,
including intermittent and perennial streams, lakes and ponds must be protected and
maintained in accordance with the NCDENR -DWQ rules. A minimum 50 foot riparian buffer is
required on all sides of streams and surface waters. A variance must be obtained prior to
impacting these buffers for non- exempt activities.
General Discussion
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act regulates the discharge of dredge and fill materials into
waters of the United States (lakes, rivers, ponds, streams, etc.), including wetlands. Waters of
the United States include the territorial seas, navigable coastal and inland lakes, rivers and
streams, intermittent streams, and wetlands. Activities that could be regulated under Section
404 include the placement of fill for construction of roadways; residential, commercial or
industrial structures; and the construction of water retention ponds along tributaries. The EPA
and the USACE jointly administer the Section 404 program. Section 401 of the Clean Water Act
grants each state the authority to approve, condition, or deny any Federal permits that could
result in a discharge to State waters.
Streams and wetlands are regulated by the USACE and NCDENR -DWQ. Permits are required
prior to impacting wetlands or open waters, including ponds, lakes and perennial or intermittent
streams. Mitigation and stormwater management plans will be a condition of any permits issued
for the site. Buffers are required adjacent to streams and water bodies. In addition, local
buffers may apply.

For impacts to one -half acre or more of wetlands or to more than 300 linear feet of stream
channel, an individual permit (IP) may be required. An IP requires a habitat analysis, alternative
site analysis, project justification, plans to avoid and minimize impacts, and a proposed
mitigation plan. Depending on the habitat analysis and the extent of impacts, an Environmental
Impact Statement may be required by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. An IP allows for a
public comment period and may require 4 to 18 months to obtain depending on conditions
arising during the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers review and public comment period.
