The 1-85/US-64 areas has been targeted for industrial development in the Davidson County Land Use Plan since approximately 1999, which has now been made possible by the
availability of sewer on site provided by Davidson County in 2021. The site was identified as an economic development priority of Davidson County and Davidson County Economic
Development Corporation. The site will be developed as an industrial warehouse in support of this effort.

The project is an approximately 272,000 square foot warehouse and distribution facility with associated employee parking, truck/trailer parking, utilities, and stormwater control facilities.
Construction will be performed by standard commercial construction equipment. No specialized equipment not regularly seen on commercial projects is anticipated.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations

Stream impacts will be limited to one area of intermittent stream. This stream will be culverted, resulting in 244 linear feet (2.76 foot average width) of
permanent loss due to the culvert, an additional 24 linear feet (2.76 foot average width) of impact for rip rap inlet and outlet protection which will be a
permanent impact but not a net loss, and 24 linear feet (2.76 foot average width) of temporary impacts to allow for dewatering of the stream during
construction.

Impacts to open waters will be the result of fill being placed during grading and the construction of the structure and parking. These impacts will total
0.163 acres and will be permanent.
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Plans were designed to limit impacts by shortening the trailer storage along the rear of the building. The designs also utilize a retaining wall to
accommodate the grade required along New Bowers Road, which adjusted the overall development closer to the street and therefore avoided additional
impacts to wetlands and streams. The remote trailer parking lot is accessed by a drive which ties directly into a location where impacts to the stream and
wetland were already required for grading for the structure and rear site access. This location was chosen to avoid additional impacts to the stream for a
second stream crossing. Appropriate sediment and erosion control practices equaling those outlined in the most recent version of the "North Carolina
Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual' will be used to minimize impacts to the jurisdictional features.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Specific attention will be paid to ensure grading is only performed to the extent needed for the proposed project and all grading not required will be
avoided. Northing and Easting coordinates will be shown at the limits of the stream impacts and linear wetland impacts on site plans. Additional impacts
to the jurisdictional features will be avoided through the use of appropriate sediment and erosion control devices.
