D Impact Justification and Mitigation
1 Avoidance and Minimization
1a Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project
The approximate 16,000 square foot budding and assoicated parking areas have been designed to avoid impacts to the
jurisdictional pond, streams or wetlands The sewer line has been designed to avoid permanent impacts to streams
Additionally, the sewer line crossing has been designed to cross the stream in a relatively straight portion of the stream as
near to perpendici dar as possible given topographic and construction constraints_
The sewer line crossing has been designed so that excavated sods will be stockpiled in upland areas and used to backfill the
trench /line to a depth of approximately 18 inches below the native stream bed The elevation of the stream channel will be
returned to its natural elevation Rip -rap will not be placed above the normal high water mark Stabilization measures above
the normal high water mark will consist of approvea matting and /or vegetative cover (live stakes) Stream Impact Exhibit D,
prepared by Land Design, shows the stream bank restoration detail
Approximately 0 10 acres of wetland, approximately 1,000 linear feet of stream channel and an approximate 0 50 acre
jurisdictional pond exist on the site Impacts to the pond and wetlands have been avoided The remaining 985 feet of stream
channel will not be impacted by the proposed development Permanent impacts to the 1,000 linear feet of stream channel
have been avoided
lb Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques
The clearing limits will be staked and silt fence will be used The sewer line crossing will stockpile excavated sods in upland
areas and use native material to backfill the trench /line to a depth of approximately 18 inches below the native stream bed
The elevation of the stream channel will be returned to its natural elevation Rip -rap will not be placed above the normal high
water mark Stabilization measures above the normal high water mark will consist of approved matting and /or vegetative cover
(live stakes) Stream Impact Exhibit D, prepared by Land Design, shows the stream bank restoration detail
A temporary coffer dam will be installed upgradient of the proposed stream crossing The temporary coffer dam will be
constructed using sandbag dikes During construction, water will be pumped around the construction area into sediment traps
(or sediment bags) prior to being discharged downgradient of the construction area Upon completion of the sewer line
installation, the temporary coffer dams will be removed The proposed length of temporary stream impact accounts for the foot
print of the temporary coffer dam /sandbag dikes

Dear Bishop Jugis.
On October 11, 2013 the Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources (DEMLR) received your
application for a Low Density Fast Track project to be covered under the State Stormwater General
Permit Number SWG060000. In accordance with your application request we are forwarding
herewith the subject Certificate of Coverage Number SWG06 0005, along with a copy of the General
Permit, for the construction of built -upon area associated with this low density project The
General Permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143 - 215.1,
Title 15A NCAC 21-1.1000, SL 2008 -211, and SL 2006 -246, the stormwater management rules
Please pay particular attention to:
Enclosure 1: Permit condition Section B.1 requires the Permittee to notify the Division at
least forty -eight (48) hours in advance of commencing construction of the permitted
project.
Enclosure 2: Permit condition Section B.3 requires that a designer's certification and as-
built drawings for the project be submitted to the Division within 30 days of completion of
the permitted site grading, road construction, sidewalks, and stormwater conveyance
system, and prior to the sale of or construction on any lot.
Enclosure 3. Permit condition Section B 6 requires the Permittee to routinely update the
Master Plan of development and /or the submitted site plan by March 15C of each year,

Permitting of this project does not constitute an acceptance of any part of the project that does not
meet the stormwater rules unless specifically mentioned herein. Division approval of this project is
based on acceptance of the certification provided by an appropriate North Carolina licensed
professional in the application. It shall be the Permittee's responsibility to ensure that the as-
constructed project meets the appropriate design criteria and rules. Failure to comply may result
in penalties in accordance with North Carolina General Statute §143- 215.6A through §143- 215.6C
and /or referral of the North Carolina licensed professional to the appropriate licensing board.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until rescinded and shall be subject to the
conditions and limitations as specified therein, and does not supersede any other agency permit
that may be required. Please pay special attention to the conditions listed in this permit regarding
the Operation and Maintenance of the BMP(s), recordation of deed restrictions, procedures for
changes of ownership, and transferring the permit. Failure to establish an adequate system for
operation and maintenance of the stormwater management system, to record deed restrictions, and
to follow the procedures for transfer of the permit, will result in future compliance problems. This
cover letter shall be considered part of this permit and is therefore incorporated therein by
reference.
Please take notice that this Certificate of Coverage is not transferable except after notice to and
approval by the DEMLR. The DWQ may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the
Certificate of Coverage.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, or need additional information on this matter,
please contact Mike Randall at 919 - 807 -6374 or mike.randal]Pncdenr.gov.
