Colleen,
Thanks for your review and comments. Yes, Lyle has indicated that he intends to use NWP 29 and NWP 14. I have asked
Will Norton of Jones & Cnossen to address your comment regarding Stream and Wetland Impact Area #1.
Thanks again.

Good afternoon!
I am starting my review of this project, and in order to complete the review, some additional information is required:
1) As Lyle stated earlier, this PCN did not include a NWP number in the application. The application was entered
into our system under the same NWP that was entered for the previous version, a NWP 12. Am I understanding
correctly that the USACE is looking at authorizing these impacts under a NWP 29 and NWP 14?
2) I'm having a bit of a difficult time reading the impact map for Wetland Impact #1 & Stream Impact #1. From the
impact tables, it looks like the new proposed permanent wetland impacts should be slightly larger than the
previously permitted temporary wetland impact. Could you please show those areas more clearly, perhaps by
using a colored outline of the wetland impacts (proposed permanent and previously permitted temporary)?
Thanks,
Colleen Cohn

Lyle,
I realize there is currently a stay on issuance of permits for an unknown duration, however, I wanted to get this
requested information back to you.
Please see the comments below and the revised set of permit drawings that are attached. We appreciate your
assistance with this project and look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks,

Hey Jeff,
I have reviewed the application of the above referenced project and need the following questions/comments addressed
to complete the project evaluation.
1- Based on a review of Sheet 2 and Sheet 5 it appears the proposed rip -rap dissipator pads are not in compliance
with NWP 29 regional condition 8.b.
2

a. NWP 29 Regional Condition 8.b. — Riprap shall be placed only on the stream banks, or, if it is necessary to
be placed in the stream bed, the finished top elevation of the riprap should not exceed that of the
original stream bed. The rip rap has been shown as being embedded in the stream bed
b. Please note that rip -rap installed according to Regional Condition 8.b. are typically considered to not
result in stream loss and typically do not require mitigation. Please separate out the loss and no loss
impacts in a table. Stream impact with rip -rap, but not a loss due to it being embedded, is identified in
tables
2- Please provide an updated table that includes loss and no loss stream impacts at Road Impact Area 1, Road
Impact Area 3 and Road impact Area 4, so mitigation can be accurately assessed. This information has been
provided
3- Please depict the NC Conservation Easement limits on Sheet 2 and Sheet 4 to allow the Corps to verify activities
are taking place outside the NC Conservation Easement limits. The limits of the conservation easement has
been made more easy to see on the plans
4- A requested NWP number was not filled out on the PCN. Based on a review of the proposed it appears as
though the project could be authorized under a combination of NWP 29 and NWP 14. Thank you
Please submit the above information within 30 days of receipt of this Notification or we may consider your application
withdrawn and close the file. Please email ([e-mail]) me if you have any questions.

Lyle,
This should be all of the supporting documentation. Regarding the stream mitigation, I checked with three banks. Two
had nothing and one had only a small portion that may be needed.
Thanks and let me know if you have any questions.

Hey Jeff,
It appears as though there was an issue with laserfishe and the only files I have are the PCN and the prefiling form.
The issues with laserfishe effected all projects submitted within a week or two.
Could you email me any attachments that were included in the submittal? Multiple emails are fine to accommodate for
file size.
