Dear Ms Fuemmeler
The McAplme Creek Environmental Restoration Project is located along approximately 5,200 linear
feet of McAlpine Creek from Sardis Road to Providence Road (NC -16) in Charlotte, North Carolina
(Figure 1, attached) The purpose of this project is to make repairs to newly restored stream channels
and to complete a previously permitted impact that was not completed before the permit expired
(SAW- 2009 - 01376) On behalf of Charlotte- Mecklenburg Storm Water Services (CMSWS), McKim
& Creed has subcontracted Carolina Wetland Services, Inc (CWS) to provide Section 404/401
permitting services for this project

Project History
The purpose of this project was to restore the geomorphic stability and enhance the aquatic habitat of
this reach of McAlpine Creek and adjacent tributaries
In 2009, Nationwide Permits Numbers (NWP Nos ) 3, 27, and 33 (SAW- 2009 - 01376, attached) and
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Water Quality Certification Numbers 3687, 3688, and 3689
(DWQ# 05- 1797V2, attached) were issued for this project The project was permitted to temporarily
impact 7,603 linear feet of channel for Priority I, II, and IiI Stream Restoration and 0 007 acre of
permanent wetland impact (Figure 2, attached)
Construction was completed in early 2013 and all impacts were completed as permitted except for fill
in a channel reach (Perennial RPW Stream 13, SR2) that was abandoned for a new Priority I
Restoration channel Previously permitted linear footage and acreage of on -site jurisdictional waters
of the U S are summarized in Table 1, below

Purpose and Need for the Project
The purpose of this project is to complete previously permitted impacts that did not occur on SR2 and
channel repairs on the restored stream channels, SR2 and McAlpine Creek
On SR2, a top of bank berm was constructed to prevent water from overtopping the banks into the
excavated floodplain This was done to primarily contain water flow to the constructed channel in a
low area and to prevent a new channel from forming in the floodplain when overtopping occurs This
berm did not function as anticipated and the constructed structures in this area have been
compromised This reach is in need of repairs
On the main stem (McAlpine), a large pre - existing boulder along with the force of water exiting SR2
has created erosion problems on the right bank opposite the SR2 confluence Bank stabilization has
failed in this area and erosion is occurring This area is in need of repairs
Avoidance and Minimization
Impacts to on-site jurisdictional waters of the U S have been reduced to the maximum extent practicable
Restoration work will result in an improvement in stream stability and ecological function Proper
sediment and erosion control measures will be used to minimize disturbances to downstream waters All
channel work will be constructed in the dry in accordance with Water Quality Certification No 3885

Proposed Impacts to Jurisdictional Waters
Unavoidable impacts to Perennial RPW Stream B (SR2) total approximately 950 linear feet The impacts
are the result of 400 linear feet of channel repairs and 550 linear feet of channel fill Temporary impacts
include approximately 400 linear feet of channel repairs between stations 8 +00 to 12 +00 (Figure 3,
attached) In this reach, atop of bank bei m will be removed, previously constructed structures will be
removed, and the channel banks will be re- graded for improved channel dimension Typical cross -
sections for this repair reach are attached (Figure 4, attached) These repairs are temporary impacts and
once completed, the failing banks will stabilize Previously permitted permanent impacts include 550
linear feet of fill in the abandoned section of channel This reach was the original location of the
geomorphologically unstable channel that was permitted as a Priority I restoration (Figures 5 to 7,
attached) During construction, this abandoned reach did not receive fill before the permit expired
Unavoidable impacts to Perennial RPW Stream C (McAlpine Creek) total approximately 222 linear feet
and are the result of a repair to the flood prone bench between stations 38 +62 to 40 +84 and a flume for a
temporary crossing of the main stem (Figures 8 and 9, attached) In this section, bank stabilization has
failed and scour has increased erosion along the toe of slope A stone toe and a large pre - existing boulder
will be removed Additionally, a flat flood prone bench will be graded to receive the force of the water
during bankfull events from the upstream bend and flow exiting SR2 The new flood prone bench will
dissipate energy during bankfull events, thus decreasing erosion in this area
Proposed impacts to on -site jurisdictional waters of the U S are summarized in Table 2, below

Dear Mr Karl:
August 21, 2009
Please reference the Site Specific Mitigation Plan for the McAlpmeWatershed
Restoration project (from Sardis Road to Providence Road) dated July 16, 2009 The plan
proposes Priority I, II, and III stream restoration to approximately 7,603 linear feet of stream
channels to be included in the City of Charlotte's Umbrella Stream and Wetland Mitigation
Bank This plan will generate approximately 4,753 stream mitigation units (SMU's) and 0.72
wetland mitigation units (WMU's) The proposed plans and credit ratios have been reviewed
and approved as proposed for inclusion into the Bank We have determined that the proposed
plan and credit releases are in accordance with guidelines set forth in the Mitigation Banking
Instrument (MBI) entitled "Agreement to Establish the City of Charlotte, Umbrella Stream and
Wetland Mitigation Bank in Mecklenburg County" and the Interagency Stream Mitigation
Guidelines (April 2003) As outlined in the MBI, the immediate release of 15% of the total
anticipated restoration and enhancement credits and 100% of the total preservation credits is
authorized upon approval of this plan, recordation of the preservation mechanism, and submittal
of acceptable title opinions which will result in the release of 741 SMU's and 0 55 WMU's In
addition, the project will require unavoidable impacts to 0.007 acre of wetlands If you have any
questions, please contact me at (828) 271 -7980 x224

3a Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application
The current land use for the project area is wooded with adjacent residential areas with mowed lawns
3b List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property 2 38 acres of wetlands
3c List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property 8,504 linear feet
3d Explain the purpose of the proposed project
The purpose of this project is to complete previously permitted impacts that did not occur on SR2 and channel repairs on the
restored stream channels, SR2 and McAlpine Creek
On SR2, atop of bank berm was constructed to prevent water from overtopping the banks into the excavated floodplain This
as done to primarily contain water flow to the constructed channel in a low area and to prevent a new channel from forming in
he floodplain when overtopping occurs This berm did not function as anticipated and the constructed structures in this area
have been compromised This reach is in need of repairs
On the main stem (McAlpine), a pre - existing boulder along with the force of water exiting SR2 has created erosion problems on
he right bank opposite the SR2 confluence Bank stabilization has failed in this area and erosion is occurring This area is in
need of repairs
3e Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used
Portions of McAlpine Creek and SR2 will be repaired (Figure 2, attached) The channels have experienced some erosion and
structure failures One temporary crossing of the main stem will be necessary using a flume (Figure 9, attached) and one
temporary crossing of SR2 will utilize an existing utility crossing already in place A trackhoe and other standard construction
equipment will be used for this project
