EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On behalf of the North Carolina National Guard, Timmons Group environmental scientist
Chris Inscore, AWB and environmental technician Morgan Gilbert conducted a field delineation
on January 2, 2019 to identify potential jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) and wetlands
within the project study limits of the NCNG JFHQ Helipad project (Site).
The Site encompasses approximately 14.01 acres and is located in the City of Raleigh,
North Carolina, within Wake County. The Site is bound by District Road to the north. To the
south, the Site is bound by Wade Avenue. To the west, the Site is bound by a forested upland
area and commercial development. To the east, the Site is bound by commercial development.
The western portion of the Site contains a stream feature and a sanitary sewer line.
Approximately 70% of the Site is comprised of forested areas, while 15% contains early
successional growth. The remaining of the Site 15% contains a maintained transmission line
right-of-way located along the eastern edge of the Site boundary. The Site contains two non -
jurisdictional rip rap ditches that drain to a stream feature located along the eastern property
boundary.
The Site is located within the Neuse River Basin (HUC 030202010803) within the
Middle Crabtree Creek — Neuse sub -watershed. The Site drains northwest into Richlands Creek.
The Site does not contain a floodway or 100-year floodplain according to NC FIRM Map
3720084100J (map revised May 2, 2006).
The Site was delineated based upon the methodology outlined in the 1987 U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetland Delineation Manual; the Regional Supplement to the
USACE Wetland Delineation Manual: Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Region (Version 2.0)
and subsequently issued USACE regulatory guidance regarding the identification of
jurisdictional stream channels through the recognition of field indicators of an ordinary high-
water mark within drainage features (Environmental Laboratory, 1987; USACE 2012; USACE
2005). In addition, streams were delineated based upon the methodology outlined in the North
Carolina Division of Water Resources (NC DWR) Methodology for Identification of Intermittent
and Perennial Stream and Their Origins (Version 4.11). Using these methodologies, preliminary
delineation mapping was produced and is included along with the attached Site description and
discussion for your review. Flagging or marking of the WOTUS and wetlands boundaries was
conducted in the field during this effort. During our delineation, one perennial stream that is
approximately 289 linear feet was identified within the Site.

2.0 INTRODUCTION
On behalf of the North Carolina National Guard, Timmons Group environmental scientist
Chris Inscore, AWB and environmental technician Morgan Gilbert conducted a field delineation
on January 2, 2019 to identify potential jurisdictional Waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) and wetlands
within the project study limits of the Helipad (Site).
3.0 SITE INFORMATION
3.1 Site Location
The Site encompasses approximately 14.01 acres of land. The Site is located at the
western terminus of District Drive in Raleigh, North Carolina, within Wake County (see Figure
1. Vicinity Map). The Site is located within the Neuse River Basin (HUC 030202010803) within
the Middle Crabtree Creek - Neuse sub -watershed. The Site does not contain a floodway or 100-
year floodplain according to NC FIRM Map 3720084100J (map revised May 2, 2006). The Site
is in the Piedmont Physiographic Province.
3.2 Site Description
The Site contains mostly forested areas with a few sections of early successional growth.
There is a stream feature located along the western property boundary. In addition, there is a
sanitary sewerline within the western section of the Site. Approximately 70% of the Site is
comprised of forested areas, while 15% contains early successional growth. The remaining 15%
of the Site contains a maintained transmission right-of-way (see Figure 1. Vicinity Map). The
Site is bound by commercial development and District Road to the north. To the south, the Site is
bound by Wade Avenue. To the east, the Site is bound by a forested upland area and commercial
development. To the west, the Site is bound by commercial development.
4.0 METHODS OF DELINEATION
4.1 Preliminary Offsite Investigation/Data Review
A review of publicly available resources was performed prior to the onsite field
investigation to determine if there is the potential for jurisdictional areas, and if present, the
extent of these areas located within the Site. These mapping resources generally include but are
not limited to the United States Geological Survey (USGS) maps, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) soils database, and the U.S. Fish &
Wildlife Service National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) database.
4.2 Field Investigation
The Site was delineated based upon the methodology outlined in the 1987 U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetland Delineation Manual; the Regional Supplement to the
Waters of the U.S. Delineation Package
NCNG JFHQ Helipad
Timmons Group
January 2019

USACE Wetland Delineation Manual: Eastern Mountains and Piedmont Region (Version 2.0);
and subsequently issued USACE regulatory guidance regarding the identification of
jurisdictional stream channels through the recognition of field indicators of an ordinary high-
water mark within drainage features (Environmental Laboratory, 1987; USACE 2012; USACE
2005). In addition, streams were delineated based upon the methodology outlined in the North
Carolina Division of Water Resources (NC DWR) Methodology for Identification of Intermittent
and Perennial Stream and Their Origins (Version 4.11).
On January 2, 2019, jurisdictional feature boundaries were flagged with consecutively
numbered pink and black ribbon at approximately 50-foot intervals. An NC DWQ Stream
Identification Form (version 4.11) was completed adjacent to the jurisdictional boundary,
providing geomorphology, hydrology, and biology data for stream determination. Features
identified in the field were flagged and GPS located for the site.
5.0 DELINEATION FINDINGS
5.1 Preliminary Offsite Investigation/Data Review Findings
Based on a review of the USGS topographic map, elevations at the Site range from 392 to
450 feet above mean sea level (MSL). One stream feature is shown on the USGS topographic
map and the NRCS soil survey map as occurring within the Site (see Figure 1. Vicinity Map and
Figure 5. NRCS Soil Survey Map).
The NRCS soil survey identifies five soil mapping units within the study area (Table 1).
One of the soil mapping units is listed as Hydric: ChA, the remainder are all characterized as
non-hydric. Drainage classes within the study area are somewhat poorly drained (ChA) and well
drained (CeB, CeC, PaD, and PaE).

5.2 Onsite Determination/Findings
5.2.1 Jurisdictional Area Summary
The onsite delineation did not verify the presence of wetlands within the Site. However,
stream features were verified on the Site. One jurisdictional stream was identified within the Site.
A summary of the jurisdictional area identified onsite is provided below in Table 2.
Jurisdictional Areas Summary. The location and size of the jurisdictional area delineated onsite
is shown on Figure 6: Preliminary Jurisdictional Water of the U.S. Delineation Map.

2) Jurisdictional area acreages are preliminary based on field delineation and
have not been confirmed or surveyed.
5.2.1.1 Jurisdictional Area Vegetation
Wetlands were not identified within the Site. However, in general, the forested areas can
be characterized as a mixed mesic hardwood and pine forest community that is dominated by
Pinus taeda (loblolly pine), Ulmus alata (winged elm), Liquidambar styraciflua (sweetgum)
species within the tree and sapling stratum. Other notable species observed within this
community include but are not limited to the following: Acer rubrum (red maple) and Juniperus
virginiana (eastern red cedar). No species were observed in the herb and vine stratums.
5.2.1.2 Jurisdictional Area Hydrology
Primary and secondary wetland hydrology indicators were not observed within the Site.
5.2.1.3 Jurisdictional Area Soils
Other than those immediately observed within the stream features, hydric soils were not
identified within the Site.
5.3.1 Upland Area Summary
Most of the upland areas located within the Site are characterized as mesic mixed
hardwood forest with some pine interspersed on the ridgetops (see Figure 3. Environmental
Waters of the U.S. Delineation Package Timmons Group
NCNG JFHQ Helipad January 2019
Page 4
Inventory Map). Upland soils were typically medium brown (5YR 4/4) at 95% with traces of
dark red (2.5YR 3/4) within the 16 inches of the soil surface. No redoxomorphic features were
found within these soil textures. Soil textures include clay loam and clay. The mapped soils
present within the Site are depicted on Figure 3: Environmental Inventory Map. No indicators of
wetland hydrology were observed within the upland areas. The location and size of upland areas
delineated onsite are shown on Figure 6: Preliminary Jurisdictional Water of the U.S.
Delineation Map.

Jurisdictional Determination Request
F. JURISDICTIONAL DETERNIINATION (JD) TYPE (Select One)
0 I am requesting that the Corps provide a preliminM JD for the property identified herein.
A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination (PJD) provides an indication that there may
be "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United States"on a property.
PJDs are sufficient as the basis for permit decisions. For the purposes of permitting, all
waters and wetlands on the property will be treated as if they are jurisdictional "waters of
the United States". PJDs cannot be appealed (33 C.F.R. 331.2); however, a PJD is
"preliminary" in the sense that an approved JD can be requested at any time. PJDs do
not expire.
❑ I am requesting that the Corps provide an approved JD for the property identified herein.
An Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) is a determination that
jurisdictional "waters of the United States" or "navigable waters of the United
States" are either present or absent on a site. An approved JD identifies the limits of
waters on a site determined to be jurisdictional under the Clean Water Act and/or
Rivers and Harbors Act. Approved JDs are sufficient as the basis for permit
decisions. AJDs are appealable (33 C.F.R. 331.2). The results of the AJD will be
posted on the Corps website. A landowner, permit applicant, or other "affected
party" (33 C.F.R. 331.2) who receives an AJD may rely upon the AJD for five years
(subject to certain limited exceptions explained in Regulatory Guidance Letter 05-
02).
❑ I am unclear as to which JD I would like to request and require additional information
to inform my decision.

1) The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional aquatic resources in
the review area, and the requestor of this PJD is hereby advised of his or her option
to request and obtain an approved JD (AJD) for that review area based on an
informed decision after having discussed the various types of JDs and their
characteristics and circumstances when they may be appropriate.
2) In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a
Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre -
construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting NWP or
other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an AJD for the
activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware that: (1) the permit applicant has
elected to seek a permit authorization based on a PJD, which does not make an
official determination of jurisdictional aquatic resources; (2) the applicant has the
option to request an AJD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit
authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an AJD could possibly result
in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) the
applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms
and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) the applicant can
accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and
conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has
determined to be necessary; (5) undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject
permit authorization without requesting an AJD constitutes the applicant's acceptance
of the use of the PJD; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered
individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps permit
authorization based on a PJD constitutes agreement that all aquatic resources in the
review area affected in any way by that activity will be treated as jurisdictional, and
waives any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance
or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7)
whether the applicant elects to use either an AJD or a PJD, the JD will be processed
as soon as practicable. Further, an AJD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms
and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively
appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331. If, during an administrative appeal, it
becomes appropriate to make an official determination whether geographic
jurisdiction exists over aquatic resources in the review area, or to provide an official
delineation of jurisdictional aquatic resources in the review area, the Corps will
provide an AJD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This PJD finds
that there "may be" waters of the U.S. and/or that there "may be" navigable waters of
the U.S. on the subject review area, and identifies all aquatic features in the review
area that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following
information:
