East Providence Stream Repair Project
Charlotte, North Carolina
Dear Mr. McMillan:
On behalf of Charlotte - Mecklenburg Storm Water Services (CMSWS), Wildlands Engineering, Inc. (Wildlands) is
submitting five copies of the PCN package for the East Providence Stream Repair Project located in
southeastern Mecklenburg County. The project is focused on stream repairs along Six Mile Creek located in the
East Providence neighborhood in Charlotte, NC (Figures 1 and 2). The repairs will be performed on a section of
channel that previously received stream enhancement as part of the East Providence Capital Improvement
Project (U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Action ID's 2004 - 30729, 2004- 3152S -26 and North Carolina
Department of Water Resource (NCDWR)# 04 -1234) which sought to reduce flooding and reduce erosion by
upgrading existing storm water drainage infrastructure and restoring on -site channels. The project begins
immediately downstream of the culvert at East Providence Drive and ends approximately 315 linear feet below
the Davis Drive culvert
Goals and Objectives
The objective of the proposed project is to address channel incision and stream bank instability along 1,005
linear feet of Six Mile Creek. The channel has downcut approximately 1 foot below the invert of the East
Providence culvert, limiting fish passage along Six Mile Creek. The incision has also exposed a sewer line
downstream of the culvert. Wildlands proposes to raise the channel invert to re- establish fish passage through
the culvert at East Providence Drive and stabilize areas of channel instability by using natural channel design
techniques. Wildlands utilized cross section surveys and longitudinal profile data for stream dimension and
slope design. Graded stream banks will be matted and planted with native vegetation.
Jurisdictional Determination
On January 21, 2014 Wildlands delineated jurisdictional waters of the U.S. within the proposed project area.
Jurisdictional areas were delineated using the USACE Routine On -Site Determination Method. This method is
defined by the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual and subsequent Eastern Mountain and
Piedmont Regional Supplement. Wetland Determination Data Forms representative of on -site and adjacent
jurisdictional wetland areas as well as non - jurisdictional upland areas have been enclosed (DP1 -DP8). Boundary
flags of on -site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. were located with a GPS unit capable of sub -meter accuracy.
Wildlands Engineering, Inc. - phone 704 - 332 -774 - fax 704 - 332 -3306 - 1430 S. Mint Street, # 104 - Charlotte, NC 28203

Jurisdictional stream channels were classified according to USACE and NCDWR guidance. USACE Approved
Jurisdictional Determination Forms, NCDWR Stream Classification Forms, and USACE Stream Quality
Assessment-Worksheets representative of on -site stream channels are enclosed (SCP1 -SCP2)
The results of the on -site field4investigation indicate that there are two Jurisdictional stream channels located
within the proposed project.area including Six Mile Creek and an unnamed tributary (UT) to Six Mile Creek
Two jurisdictional wetland areas;were identified within the proposed project area (Wetlands A & B) and are
located within the floodplains of the. on -site streams (Figure .3) Six Mile Creek (NCDWR Index No a -138),
which has-been elassified'as ".Glass C protected for secondary recreation and aquatic life On -site stream
channelsa "relocated within NCDWR Subbasrn 03 -08 -38 of the Catawba River Basin (HU# 63050103)
Approximate Irnearfootage and acreage�of on- site,jurisdictional waters�are summarized in Table :L
Table 1. Summary of On -Site Jurisdictional Waters
Perennial Streams
Six Mile Creek is a perennial relatively permanent water (RPW) located within the project area (Figure 3) The
perennial channel exhibited, average bankfull widths of 8 to 12 feet, strong baseflow conditions, minor to
significant channel incision, defined riffle -pool sequences, and substrate including silt, sand, gravel and bedrock
outcrops Biological sampling within the reach resulted in,a moderate presence of algae and benthic
macro i nverte brates and a weak presence of fish and amphibians The channel scored a 43 out of a possible loo
points on the USACE Stream,Quality Assessment Form and 37,06t of °a 615,possible points on the,NCDWR
Stream Classification Form, indicating perennial status (SCP1)
Intermittent Streams,
One intermittent RPW channel (UT to Six Mile Creek) is located within the project area The channel exhibited
bank-full widths of z to 4 feet, strong baseflow conditions, poorly defined riffle -pool sequences, small headcuts,
andsoil -based evidence of a high water table The UT received 48 oubof a possible loo points on the USACE
Stream Quality Assessment Form and,zg 25 out of 615 possible points on the NCDWR Stream Classification
Form, indicating intermittent status (SCPz)
Wetlands
There are two (z) jurisdictional wetlands located within the review area. These wetland features were classified
as headwater forest using the North Carolina Wetland AssessmentlMethod (NCWAM) classification key�and the
evaluator's best professional judgment These wetlands occur in the floodplain of on- site,streams Wetlands A
and B, exhibited saturation, algae mats, and a low chroma matrix Common hydrophytic vegetation includes
fescue (Festuca sp ),soft rush (Juncus,effusus), and straw - colored flatsedge (Cyperus stngosus) Wetland

Determination Data Forms representative of on -site non - Jurisdictional upland areas have,also been enclosed
(DP2 -DP5, and DP7) Table :1 shows the acreage of jurisdictibnal wetland areas within the review area and the
acreage of these wetlands within the proposed project area The right floodplain of Six Mile Creek immediately
upstream of Wetland A exhibited pockets of hydric soils,but lacked hydrology It's Wildlands,opinion that these
areas may have previously been wetland that was impacted by the installation of a sewer line around 2004
Soils
Soil types,with'rn the study area include Appling�sandy loam (ApD) and Helena sandy loam (HeB) Appling
sandy loam (8 —15% slopes) is typically found on hillsides is well - drained with moderately high to high
permeability These.soiIs typically don't experience flooding or pond ing Helena sandy loam (2 —8% slopes) is
Moderately well - drained with moderately low to moderately high permeability These soils are found on ridges
and at the base of hill'slopes Helena-sandy loam soils are listed on the Natural Resource Conservation Service
(NRCS) State hydric soils list as having inclusions of hydric soils On -site soils are mapped in Figure 4
Proposed Impacts
The proposed work involves raising the stream bed and re- grading banks to construct a stable stream channel
Proposed impacts include temporary stream impacts to approximately i,005 linear feet of perennialichannel
and 28 linear feet to,rntermittent,channel within the project area In addition, approximately o 000s acres of
wetland will be permanently impacted by grading for stream bank stabilization.

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion Assign points to each
characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics identified in the
worksheet Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation If a characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or
weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section Where there are obvious changes in the character
of a stream under review (e g , the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more
continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score
of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality

A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete

and Section III.D.1.; otherwise, see Section III.B below

2. Wetland adjacent to TNW

B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non - navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year -round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year -round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law.
If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the
waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is
the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section IiI.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section IILC below.

Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed
C. SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and /or biological integrity of a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland Iles within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW9
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and hfecycle support functions for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW9
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs9
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW9
Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below:
1. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain
findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III D

B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non - navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year -round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year -round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law.
If the waterbody4 is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the
waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is
the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below.

Wetland B, Yes 001
Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed
C SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
of a TNW For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and /or biological integrity of a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW9
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW9
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs9
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW9
Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below:
1. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain
findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III D
2. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non -RPW flows directly or indirectly into
TNWs. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its
adjacent wetlands, then go to Section III D
3. Significant nexus findings for wetlands adjacent to an RPW but that do not directly abut the RPW. Explain findings of
presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to
Section IIi D

East Providence Stream Repair Project
Charlotte, North Carolina
Dear Ms Gledhill- Earley
On behalf of our client, Charlotte Mecklenburg Storm Water Services, we are hereby contacting
the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office regarding the presence of any historic
properties or cultural resources within the referenced project area The proposed project is
located along Six Mile Creek in southeastern Charlotte, NC in the East Providence neighborhood
(Figure 1, Vicinity Map) The project area extends from the culvert at East Providence Drive and
extends approximately 1,100 linear feet downstream ending below the Davis Drive culvert. Site
coordinates for the center of the project area are 35.074913 °N /- 80.740527 °W The project area
footprint is approximately 2 0 acres The attached USGS Site Map (Figure 2) illustrates the
approximate location of the proposed project. Figure 2 was prepared from the Matthews USGS
Quadrangle, North Carolina.
The most recent landuse activity has been residential development. No structures (except the
piped road crossings) and sewer line manholes were observed in the project area. Modern single
family houses are located immediately adjacent to the project area. Construction of this project
will cause unavoidable impacts to approximately 1,100 linear feet of jurisdictional waters of the
U.S. and require Section 404/401 permitting.
Please provide a response concerning your determination regarding the presence of any historic
properties or cultural resources within the project area. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Ian Eckardt
Environmental Scientist
