The project site is bordered by Southport -Supply Road (Hwy 211) East, to the north, single family dwelling, to the west, a Dollar General, to the east, and undeveloped land, to the south.
The project site is approximately 4.88 acre of mostly groomed upland, with a driveway, several buildings and parking areas positioned within the interior of the property. A Pocosin type
wetland encroaches over the south and western property line, and a 0.458-acre, relic sand pit, where the first couple of feet of soil was removed, can be found within the northeast corner
of the property. According to discussions with Gary Beecher (USACE Brunswick Co. Field Rep.), the USACE has determined the feature to be isolated and man-made. Please see the
attached aerial photo, JD Request Packet, and site plan for details. Residential and business are the main land uses, in the vicinity of the project.

0.285 AC Section 404 & 0.458 AC Non -Jurisdictional
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
0
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:'
The purpose of this project is to construct a self storage facility in an area where demand is high.
41. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:
The project entails removing woody vegetation, from 0.17-acre of Pocosin wetland, and back filling, with clean earthen soil. The soil will be graded and topped with pavement or the like.
Dump trucks, backhoes, front end loaders and the like will be used to facilitate the work.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations
5a. Have the wetlands or streams been delineated on the property or proposed impact areas?*
Yes No Unknown

The site has been verified but the AJD has not bee issued.
5b. If the Corps made a jurisdictional determination, what type of determination was made?*
Preliminary Approved Not Verified Unknown N/A
Corps AID Number:
Not assigned

2g. Total Permanent Wetland Impact

1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
The Applicant had the site delineated for wetlands, prior to designing the project. Once it was determined wetlands existed, within the project limits, the
Applicant designed the project to minimize the impact to the greatest extend possible, by not utilizing approximately 0.115-acre of the property, where
wetlands exist, and by incorporating a retaining wall, which minimized the impact by 0.02-acre.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Prior to commencing with land disturbing activities, sediment and erosion control (E&SC) measures, such as silt fence and sediment basins, will be
installed. This should ensure that, during the construction period, runoff is collected and treated, prior to discharging offsite, and sediment is trapped
within the approved limits of disturbance. Additionally, the approved wetland impact line will be clearly marked with orange construction fencing, to
ensure the boundary is not inadvertently crossed.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State
2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
Yes No
2c. If yes, mitigation is required by (check all that apply):
DWR Corps
2d. If yes, which mitigation option(s) will be used for this project?
Mitigation bank Payment to in -lieu fee program Permittee Responsible Mitigation
3. Complete if Using a Mitigation Bank
3a. Name of Mitigation Bank:
Stone Farm Umbrella Mitigation Bank
3b. Credits Purchased/Requested (attach receipt and letter)
Type: Quantity:
Non -riparian wetland 0.40
3c. Comments
A credit reservation letter has been requested, from the mitigation bank, and will be provided upon receipt.
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
la. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?
Yes No
If no, explain why:
This project is located within the Lumber River Basin, which is not one of NC's Riparian Buffer River Basins.
2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOT's Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?
Yes No
2b. Does this project meet the requirements for low density projects as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .1003(2)?
