WR Project#02170857.10
Dear Ms. Norton and Ms. Homewood,
This letter is in response to the USACE Request for Additional Information letter dated 5/19/2022
and NCDWR Request for Additional Information letter dated 5/11/2022. Below are the
comments for each of the letters and our responses which are based on the discussions at our
meeting on 6/6/2022:
USACE Request for Additional Information Letter(5/19/2022)
A.i. The Corps disagrees with your stated Purpose and Need,given that the term"affordable housing"
is not defined. Please note that the Corps makes the final determination regarding Basic and
Overall Purpose and Need for a project. Based on your application, we have determined the
Purpose and Need of your project to be the following:
Basic: To construct a mixed-use, multifamily apartment complex and commercial/retail
development.
Overall: To construct a mixed-use multifamily apartment complex and commercial/retail
development to meet the existing housing demand in Town of Cary and Wake County.
As discussed during the 6/6/2022 meeting, we are revising the project Purpose and Need to
eliminate the reference to "affordable workforce housing."
The revised Purpose and Need is:
To construct a mixed-use, multifamily apartment complex and commercial/retail development to
provide alternative housing options for people who want to live in the Town of Cary but cannot
afford to purchase a home due to high real estate prices.
Currently, the median home sale price in the Town of Cary is in excess $600,000 (per
www.Redfin.com on 6/17/2022) resulting in a significant barrier for entry into home ownership.
These levels of high real estate prices persist throughout Wake County. Based on current interest
rates (5.91%) on a 30-year mortgage with 20% down ($120,00), the monthly mortgage payment
would be $2,850 per month before taxes and insurance. And interest rates continue to go up
making the purchase of a home even more expensive. The current monthly cost of home

ownership is more than 30% higher than the projected average rents for the proposed apartment
complex. The proposed project will provide a garden style apartment community which will offer
a quality home to the residents of Cary who cannot afford to purchase a home in Cary.
The applicant also has a "Preferred Employer Program" (PEP) for all of their properties. The PEP
offers special incentives for employees of specific businesses/organizations in the geographic area
of a property. The PEP incentives include a waived application fee and 50% off the security
deposit,which provides a significant savings for residents who are part of the Triangle work force.
For the Cary Legacy property,the designated employers for the PEP program will be: NCSU,Cisco,
John Deere, MetLife, ABB, Epic Games, Wells Fargo, Duke Progress Energy, Verizon, SAS, IBM,
Relias Learning, Wake County Healthcare Professionals, State/Federal Employees, Wake County
Schools, Duke, UNC,Wake Med and Rex Hospitals, Duke University, University of North Carolina
at Chapel Hill, Sapiens Americas, Dataflux, Red Hat and Research Triangle Park.
A.ii. For the offsite alternatives analysis, several siting criteria presented are not adequately justified
in the application:
a. The terms"Size/Yield"were used but not adequately explained, and it is unclear what the size
requirements are for potentially smaller sites that may use a parking deck to minimize impacts.
The"Size/Yield"criterion established the minimum size requirement for feasible sites as-20 acres
of usable area to yield 300-500 multifamily units. A simple straight density calculation of 15-20
units per acre is used for garden style apartments. The density calculation allows for quick
evaluation of sites to determine if they can potentially yield the required 300-500 minimum units to
be feasible. While the initial density calculation may determine that a site could potentially provide
the necessary units, other factors that reduce the usable area and unit yield must be evaluated.
These factors include configuration/dimensions of the site, zoning setbacks, potential streams,
wetlands,and riparian buffers(based on publicly available GIS data), FEMA floodplain,topography,
sufficient area for stormwater management, etc. The attached revised Alternatives Analysis has
been revised to provide additional explanation of the basis for the "Site/Yield" site selection
criteria.
The "potentially smaller sites," which are Alternative Site 3 (Macedonia Rd) and Alternative Site 4
(Kit Creek Rd), were initially included in the Offsite Alternatives Analysis to demonstrate that the
applicant had evaluated numerous sites within Cary for the proposed project, including smaller
sites through the use of parking structures. Since these smaller sites were eliminated by the
applicant for several reasons, site planning and costs estimates for a parking structure were not
completed and cannot be provided. Therefore,Alternative Site 3 (Macedonia Rd) and Alternative
Site 4 (Kit Creek Rd) have been eliminated from the attached revised Alternatives Analysis.
b. "Access"is used as a siting criterion;however,it is not clear that to be a practicable alternative,
a multifamily housing and commercial development must be located within Y mile of an
interstate.
Per our discussion out the 6/6/2022 meeting, all of the offsite alternative sites met the "Access"
criterion. Therefore, we have eliminated the "Access" criterion from the attached revised
Alternatives Analysis.
c. "Visibility"is used as a siting criterion;however,this criterion seems restrictive for the proposed
project as it is not measurable. Please elaborate on the required distance for visibility from
major roads and provide supporting documentation.

Legacy Cary - IP - Response to Requests for Additional Info , WitherSRavene l
Cary,Wake County
6/21/2022 OL r,•..::...,.. ,. Suctess.
The applicant's "Visibility" criteria is not based on a specific required distance from major roads.
The "Visibility" criteria is based on a site having frontage along a heavily traveled road with direct
line of sight of the buildings for commuters passing by the development.
Visibility is a key component of a multifamily site evaluation because it is important for prospective
residents to be able to easily see the property, not just the signage, from the road. A quality built
property visible as one passes by on the road adds to the overall attractiveness of a development.
It should also not be underestimated that strong visibility from a heavily travelled road results in
potential residents driving by the property stopping in for impromptu tours or will note the
property name and call back to schedule a tour. Based on the applicant's extensive expertise in
the rental multifamily developments, apartment complexes with visibility from primary traffic
routes have a substantially faster leasing rate than those developments that do not have visibility
from primary traffic routes. The ability to quickly lease a property to a high occupancy rate also
affects the applicant's ability to refinance an apartment complex development from a construction
loan to a commercial loan.
The Visibility criterion is even more important to the commercial/retail component of the
proposed project. The commercial lot on the west side of Twyla Rd will be developed as a hotel
as shown in the revised Impact Maps (attached). The users/business types for two "future
commercial" lots on the east side of Twyla Rd have not been determined to date. However, the
approved Planned Density Development (PDD) for the project site allows nonresidential
(commercial/retail) uses on the future commercial lots such as restaurants, banks, ABC stores,
convenience stores, small shopping centers, indoor recreation, retail stores, wellness centers, etc.
All of these potential uses/businesses rely on visibility from a heavily traveled road for exposure
to attract customers/patrons. Visibility is a key component of the success for any type of
commercial/retail business that would be located on these future commercial lots.
It should be noted that the Town of Cary has a sign ordinance(Chapter 9 of the Land Development
Ordinance) that has restrictions on the location, size, and height of signage. The sign ordinance
prohibits signs in the ROW, and also requires signs for multifamily developments be no more than
42" in height and no more than 32 sf in area. As an example, 32 sf sign would be an 8' long x 4'
tall sign,which cannot be higher than 42"off the ground and must be located outside of the ROW.
This results in small signage for the apartment complex and commercial/retail businesses, making
visibility from a heavily travelled road even more important for the ability to quickly lease the
apartment complex and success of the commercial/retail businesses within the development.
The revised Alternative's Analysis has been updated to provide additional explanation of the
"Visibility" criterion.
d. "Utilities"is used as siting criterion; however, this criterion does not provide any information
pertaining to the differences to provide utilities to all alternatives, if needed. A cost
comparison should be provided for each alternative.
The availability of utilities immediately adjacent to a potential site is a particularly important
criterion when determining a feasible site. The general cost to construct a water main is
approximately $160/LF and the general cost to construct a gravity sewer line is approximately
$455/LF, with some variability in cost depending on the size and type of pipe used.
The proposed project site (Twyla Rd) and Alternative 1 (Alston Ave) had existing water and sewer
immediately adjacent and therefore, there were no additional costs associated with connecting to
these utilities.

Cary,Wake County
6/21/2022 c;<,•..::...,.. ,. Suctess.
There are no existing water or sewer lines immediately adjacent to Alternative Site 2 (Green Level
West Road). At the time of the applicant's evaluation of Alternative Site 2, the nearest existing
water main was located approximately 5,000 LF west and the nearest existing sewer line was
located approximately 1,100 feet west of the site. In order to develop this site,the applicant would
be responsible for cost of constructing these utilities to the site. Based on the applicant's
discussion with their contractors, construction of the water main to the site would be $800,000
($160/LF x 5,000 LF) and construction of the gravity sewer line to the site would be $500,000
($455/LF x 1,100 LF). This represents a total cost of $1.3 million to bring utilities to Alternative
Site 3. This is a substantial additional cost which renders this site financially unfeasible and
therefore Alternative Site 3 not a viable alternative site.
The"Utilities"criterion in the Alternatives Analysis has been revised to provide the requested cost
information for each site for comparison.
e. If 20 acres of developable upland is required for the proposed project,please explain why off-
site areas that offered less than 20 acres of developable upland were assessed. This is a basic
requirement that should be met for all alternatives for them to be considered.
The sites smaller than 20 acres included in the Alternatives Analysis were Alternative Site 3
(Macedonia Road)and Alternative Site 4(Kit Creek Road). These sites were included in the original
Alternatives Analysis to demonstrate that the applicant had completed an extensive evaluation of
various sites for their proposed project with alternative product styles. Per our discussion at the
6/6/2022 meeting, we have eliminated Alternative Site 3 (Macedonia Road) and Alternative Site
4 (Kit Creek Road) from the Alternatives Analysis. The revised Alternatives Analysis has been
provided as an attachment.
f. The Corps is interested in additional information referencing Alternative Site 1 - Alston
Avenue, as it appears this would be the least environmentally damaging alternative resulting
in no impacts to waters of the US. Specifically, explain if site size requirements would be met
if a parking deck were used for the site. Also, please provide a cost estimate to import fill for
the site.
The applicant's site selection process begins with initial due diligence of sites based on publicly
available information, such as the Wake County iMaps website. The applicant evaluated
Alternative Site 1 (Alston Avenue) in 2017. Based on Wake County iMaps, there are five streams
and a pond shown on the site. At the time of evaluation, the applicant had to assume that these
features existed and were likely jurisdictional to the USACE/NCDWR. Therefore, the initial due
diligence evaluation determined that development of this site and would result in approximately
1,550 LF of stream impacts and 1.0 acre of pond impacts, which would have been more impacts
than the preferred alternative site (Twyla Road), which results in 1,087 LF of permanent stream
impacts and 0.442 ac of permanent wetland impacts). The previous Alternatives Analysis in the
original IP application discussed the wetland delineation and USACE/NCDWR verifications
completed by WithersRavenel for Alternative Site 1 (Alston Ave). However, WithersRavenel
completed the delineation/agency verifications for another developer after the applicant had
eliminated this site. Therefore, the applicant had no knowledge that this site did not have any
jurisdictional features during their due diligence investigation. Therefore, we have eliminated the
discussion of the WithersRavenel delineation and agency approvals in the alternatives analysis, as
this was completed for another developer after the applicant moved on from the site and therefore
had no bearing on the applicant's evaluation of the site. Alternative Site 1 (Alston Ave) has since
been purchased by another developer and is no longer an option as an alternative site.

.r:
Since the applicant's initial due diligence determined Alternative Site 1 (Alston Ave) was not a
suitable site,a formal grading plan was not completed,so we are unable to provide an estimate for
the cost to import fill to the site.
The attached Alternatives Analysis has been revised to include this information in the analysis for
Alternative Site 1 (Alston Ave).
B.i. Please provide additional information regarding the Stockwell Lane extension. Specifically,could
the Stockwell Lane extension be used as primary access for the proposed development, thereby
eliminating the need to relocate Twyla Road.
Per the Town of Cary's requirements, the project site must have two points of access, both for
efficiency of traffic patterns and emergency access. Therefore,the Stockwell Lane extension must
be constructed even if Twyla Road was not relocated/improved.
Twyla Road must be connected to the Morrisville Parkway traffic circle per the Town of Cary's
approved PDD for the project. An excerpt from the approved PDD documenting this connection
requirement is attached.
Additionally, Morrisville Parkway is a NCDOT controlled access road, and NCDOT approved a
controlled access break at the traffic circle for the Twyla Road connection as documented in the
attached emails from NCDOT.
B.ii Could additional avoidance and minimization be achieved by relocating Stream 1 on either side
of Twyla Road.
Relocation of Stream 1 to the west side of the improved Twyla Road is not feasible onsite
alternative because it would require the stream to be relocated onto a parcel not owned by the
applicant. If Stream 1 were relocated to the west side of Twyla Road,the 50'Jordan Lake Riparian
Buffers and 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition Buffers would encumber most of this parcel,
rendering the parcel unusable. Additionally, relocation of Stream 1 to the west would result in
only short sections of open channel, with the majority of the stream still being piped to allow for
construction of the western parking area and SCM. Therefore,the relocated portions of Stream 1
would have little functional value thereby not resulting in any significant minimization of impacts
to Stream 1, and the functional value of Stream 1 is better served through provision of mitigation
in a regionally significant mitigation site.
Relocation of Stream 1 to the east side of the improved Twyla Road is not a feasible onsite
alternative because the 50' Jordan Lake Buffers and 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition Buffers
would be pushed further into the eastern portion of the project site. This would greatly reduce
the developable area within the eastern portion of the project site, resulting in the elimination of
several buildings and parking which would reduce the total unit yield to well below the 300 unit
minimum necessary for the project to be feasible.
The attached Alternatives Analysis has been revised to include this information in the onsite
alternatives analysis.
B.iii Regarding the Twyla Road improvements and Stockwell Lane extension, could additional
avoidance and minimization of streams and wetlands be achieved by bridging?
Based on information provided by WithersRavenel engineers familiar with the cost of bridge
construction, the general cost for construction of a two-lane concrete bridge is approximately
$8,000/LF.
Page 5 of 12
Legacy Cary - IP - Response to Requests for Additional Info , WitherSRavene l
Cary,Wake County
6/21/2022 OL r,•..::...,.. ,. Suctess.
Bridging the Stockwell Lane extension to avoid impacts to Streams 2 & 3 would require a 250 LF
bridge to connect to the existing Stockwell Lane road stub and span the entirety Streams 2 &3 to
avoid impacts. The approximate cost of the bridge would be $2 million. There would also be
additional costs resulting from having to hire a bridge contractor to construct the bridge.
Please note the proposed project has not been issued for bid,so the actual cost of construction of
the Stockwell Lane as proposed (traditional culverted road) is not known at this time. However,
based on industry standard costs for similar roadways, the approximate cost of construction is
$250/LF. Construction of this same 250 LF section of Stockwell Lane is approximately $62,500.
Also, assuming $100,000 cost for necessary additional fill and $200,000 for the approximate cost
of the two culverts, the total approximate cost for construction of Stockwell Lane as a traditional
culverted road would be around $362,500. The cost of a bridge is over 5 times higher than the
cost of a traditional culverted road. Therefore, bridging the Stockwell Lane extension is not a
practicable onsite alternative due to the $2 million cost.
In order to utilize a bridge for the Twyla Road improvements, a 950 LF bridge would be required
to avoid impacts to Stream 1,which would cost approximately$7.6 million. This design would also
result in Stream 1 being located beneath the bridge for the entire length of the bridge, resulting in
secondary impacts such as shading.
The cost of construction of the improvements to Twyla Road at the $250/LF is approximately
$237,500. Also, assuming $300,000 cost for bringing in additional fill to construct the road, the
total approximate cost for construction of Twyla Road as a traditional road would be around
$537,500. The cost of a bridge is 14 times higher than the cost of a traditional road. Therefore,
bridging the Twyla Road is not a practicable onsite alternative due to the $7.6 million cost.
This information has been included in the revised Alternatives Analysis which has been provided
as an attachment.
B.iv. Please confirm that wetland impacts are not proposed for Wetland D. If so, please update the
site application and plan sheets accordingly.
The proposed improvements to Twyla Road will result in impacts to Wetland D. These impacts
were overlooked during preparation of the impact maps due to the amount of linework for the
grading in this area. The Wetland Impact Maps have been revised to include the 0.107 acres of
permanent impact(Impact W9)to Wetland D. We have also updated the PCN form to include the
impacts to Wetland D. The revised PCN form and updated Wetland Impact Maps have been
provided as attachments.
The applicant proposes to mitigate for the 0.107 acres of impacts to Wetland D at a 2:1 mitigation
ratio. The proposed mitigation in the revised PCN form has been updated. We have also provided
an updated NCDMS Letter of Acceptance to reflect the revised mitigation as an attachment.
NCDWR Request for Additional Information Letter(5/11/2022)
2. The applicant states that Twyla Rd is required to be constructed to the northern cul-de-sac. Please
provide further justification for the need to road improvements beyond the traffic circle at the
entrance into Legacy Cary. It is not evident that the impacts associated with this portion of the
road are necessary.
The northern cul-de-sac is necessary to continue to provide access to the privately owned parcels
adjacent to the north of Legacy Cary which currently use Twyla Road for access. There are existing
access easements extending from the current terminus of Twyla Road to provide access to these
Page 6 of 12
Legacy Cary - IP - Response to Requests for Additional Info , WithersRavenel
Cary,Wake CountyIt&
6/21/2022 OL r,•..::...,.. ,. Suctess.
parcels. Therefore, the applicant is required to maintain the existing access easements from the
northern cul-de-sac to these properties. The impact maps have been updated to show and label
these existing easements more clearly.
3. Will the roadways be conveyed to the Town of Cary upon completion. Please clarify.
Stockwell Lane and Twyla Road will be conveyed to the Town of Cary as public roads upon
completion of construction.
4. Please clarify how stormwater will be collected and treated from the improved Twyla Rd and new
portion of Stockwell Lane. Please note that if the road is to become publicly maintained then
stormwater for the roadway must be treated in accordance with regulations applicable to linear
transportation facilities. If the road, or any portion thereof, will not be maintained by the Town or
NCDOT in the future then all stormwater from the roadway must be treated as part of the
development.
The project has been designed to capture stormwater runoff from Twyla Road and Stockwell Lane
and convey it the proposed SCM on the west side of Twyla Road for treatment.
5. The application states that Stream 2 is an intermittent channel, however Figure 6 indicates that
the stream is Perennial. Please clarify. Based on remote mapping it appears that Stream 2 is
sufficiently large enough to be classified as Perennial throughout the project limits.
The classification of Stream 2 as an intermittent stream was based on the original delineation
completed in March 2018 which was approved by the USACE. The March 2018 delineation
determined that the upper reach of Stream 2 was intermittent and transitioned to perennial below
the confluence of Streams 2, 3&4. However,the construction of Morrisville Parkway in late 2018
(after the original delineation) created a stormwater outfall for the road runoff into the crenulation
associated with Streams 2, 3 & 4 . This discharge of stormwater from Morrisville Parkway has
resulted in high velocity flows during heavy rain events which has caused significant erosion and
downcutting of Stream 2 as noted in the attached photo documentation. The downcutting within
Stream 2 is approximately 4-6 feet deep. WithersRavenel conducted an additional site visit on
6/15/2022 to complete NCDWR stream forms for Streams 2 & 3. As a result of the
erosion/downcutting of Stream 2, the channel within the S5 impact area now receives constant
groundwater baseflow and currently scores as a perennial stream (36 points). The perennial start
point has migrated upstream of the culvert alignment due to the erosion/downcutting of the
stream bed, whereas the perennial start point in 2018 was at the confluence of Streams 2, 3 &4.
The NCDWR stream forms for Streams 2 & 3 have been provided as an attachment. Therefore,
we have updated the impact maps to note Stream 2 as a perennial stream, and we have updated
the Stream Impact Table in the PCN form to show impacts to Stream 2 (Impacts S4, S5 & S6) as
perennial stream impacts. The updated impacts maps and revised PCN form have been provided
as attachments.
6. Please provide NCDWR stream forms to support the classification of Streams 1 and 3 as
intermittent streams/stream segments.
NCDWR stream forms for Streams 1, 2, 3 &4 have been provided as attachments.
7. Please clarify if Wetland K has been delineated by the USACE. Figure 6 and Wetland Impact maps
show Wetland K,however the figure attached to the USACE JD does not include a wetland at this
location.
Page 7 of 12
Legacy Cary - IP - Response to Requests for Additional Info , WithersRavenel
Cary,Wake County
6/21/2022 OL r,•..::...,.. ,. Suctess.
Wetland K was included in the delineation that was approved by the USACE in 2019. At that time,
Wetland K was labeled as "Wetland E" as shown in the "Approved Delineation Exhibit" in the
attached concurrence email from the USACE dated 6/12/2019. WithersRavenel submitted an
updated Preliminary JD Request to the USACE in December 2021 reflecting the migration of the
origin of Stream 3 further downstream. When preparing the exhibits for the new PJD request,the
WithersRavenel staff member who prepared the exhibits did not include Wetland K (formerly
Wetland E) in the exhibits because it was "offsite" as is our typical practice and renumbered the
wetlands,which is why this wetland was not shown on the 12/21/2021 PJD issued by the USACE.
However,Wetland K(formerly Wetland E)was previously delineated and approved by the USACE
as documented in the attached concurrence email from the USACE dated 6/12/2019.
8. The impact maps and PCN application do not appear to include impacts to Wetland D
however the proposed site plan appears to eliminate Wetland D.
The proposed improvements to Twyla Road will result in the elimination of Wetland D. These
impacts were overlooked during preparation of the impact maps due to the amount of linework
for the grading in this area. The Wetland Impact Maps have been revised to include the 0.107
acres of permanent impact (Impact W9) to Wetland D. We have also updated the PCN form to
include the impacts to Wetland D. The revised PCN and updated Wetland Impact Maps have been
provided as attachments.
The applicant proposes to mitigate for the 0.107 acres of impacts to Wetland D at a 2:1 mitigation
ratio. The proposed mitigation in the revised PCN form has been updated. We have also provided
an updated NCDMS Letter of Acceptance to reflect the revised mitigation as an attachment.
9. Impacts to Wetland E appear to be for"future commercial use." In order to adequately document
avoidance and minimization, please provide a specific site plan for this development area. It
appears that impacts to this wetland could be minimized by reducing the fill area slightly which
would still provide for a sufficient area for future commercial development.
The "future commercial area" adjacent to Wetland E will be developed as a hotel and the impact
maps have been updated to show the design of the hotel and associated impacts.
The impact maps have been revised to break out the impacts to Wetland E into separate impacts
for road grading(Impact W1 - 0.025 ac) and construction of the hotel (Impact W11 - 0.051 ac).
The applicant did not have a formal design of the hotel prior to the original IP application submittal.
The incorporation of the hotel design into site plan and completion of the grading plan, it was
determined that additional impacts to Wetland K would be necessary for the hotel grading.
The Wetland Impact Table in the PCN form have been updated to reflect the separation of the
impacts. The updated Wetland Impact Maps and PCN form have been provided as attachments.
10. The application states that further avoidance and minimization cannot be accomplished because
it would cause a loss in area to provide stormwater control measure (SCM). While the Division
recognizes the need for the project to provide options for meeting stormwater management,there
are a wide variety of treatment options for meeting stormwater requirements,including providing
smaller SCMs,SCMs that can be integrated into the greenspace, and/or require smaller acreage.
Please either provide further justification for this statement or remove it from the onsite
alternative analysis.

The statement/discussion regarding relocation of Twyla Road to the west not being a feasible
alternative due to reduction of the SCM has been removed from the onsite alternatives analysis in
the attached revised Alternatives Analysis.
11. Please clarify why the culvert for Stream 3 is proposed to be installed at a 2% slope to reduce
outlet velocity, however culvert for Stream 2 is proposed at a 2.38%slope. Given that Stream 3
starts under the roadway fill,it is unclear what surface flow would be generating the velocity.
The Stream 3 culvert will only convey flood level flows during extreme rain events when velocity
of overland flow moving through the area is extremely high due to concentrated discharge from
Morrisville Parkway storm drainage outfall. Since there is no channel upstream of the Stream 3
culvert, the culvert did not have to be buried to maintain aquatic life passage. Therefore, the
Stream 3 culvert could be designed at a 2% slope resulting in the downstream end of the culvert
perched above the riprap plunge pool to further dissipate flow velocity.
The Stream 2 culvert was designed at a 2.38% slope to match the gradient of the existing stream
channel and will be buried 12" below the stream bed to meet aquatic life passage requirements.
12. Please provide a restoration plan detail and vegetation planting plan for the temporary impact
areas.
As discussed at the 6/6/2022 meeting, the temporary wetland impacts at Impact W8 (0.026 ac)
will occur from the construction of a temporary riprap coffer dam to allow flow to by bypassed
around the Stockwell Lane extension construction area so that work can be completed "in the dry".
The coffer dam will also provide temporary access during construction. Once construction is
complete, the coffer dam will be removed entirely, and the temporary wetland impact area will be
restored to pre-construction grades and seeded with a wetland seed mix to stabilize the area.
13. The Division questions whether Stream 4 will continue to function at the same level upon
construction of Stockwell Lane. It appears to be a stream that is formed by flow from the upslope
wetland. Construction of Stockwell Lane will divert most of the flow in the area into the two
culverts, therefore bypassing Stream 4,starving its hydrology, and reducing its function.
During a site visit on 6/15/2022 to prepare NCDWR stream forms for Streams 1, 2 & 3, we also
completed a form for Stream 4. During the original delineation in March 2018, Stream 4 scored
as an intermittent stream. However, Stream 4 currently scores as ephemeral (9.5) as shown in the
attached NCDWR stream form. Photos taken on 6/15/2022 have also been provided
documenting the current conditions of Stream 4 (see attached Photo Documentation).
We believe that the changes in conditions of Stream 4 are due to several factors. The stormwater
discharge into the overall crenulation has created highly erosive flows through the crenulation.
This has resulted in altered flow/drainage patterns that have directed flow away from Stream 4.
There currently are no discernable drainage patterns within the upslope wetlands (Wetland J) that
flow to Stream 4. Additionally, the erosion/downcutting of Stream 2 has resulted in the channel
being deepened up to 6' in places. We believe this may have changed the subsurface groundwater
movement, as the bed of Stream 2 is now much lower than Stream 4 and may be draining
groundwater away from Stream 4. For comparison of hydrologic conditions, we have also
provided photos taken on 6/15/2022 of Streams 2 & 3 which show flow in both streams (see
attached Photo Documentation).
Please note that we are not requesting a formal reclassification of Stream 4 as an ephemeral
channel. We are providing this information in order to document the current conditions of Stream

4 as it pertains to the current hydrology and function. Stream 4 is not currently functioning as a
stream primarily because it is no longer receiving significant flow from the upslope wetland.
Therefore, we are not assessing any secondary impacts to Stream 4 as the construction of
Stockwell Lane will not alter the hydrology or affect the function of Stream 4 in excess of the
current conditions and will not cause any further degradation of Stream 4.
14. Please clarify how the riprap dissipators will be installed such that the remainder of Wetland J
below the culverts will continue to function. The Division is concerned that excavation of the area
to install culvers and the large dissipators will cause significant changes to the hydrology of the
wetland in this area.
The hydrology of Wetland J is already being affected by the erosion of Streams 2 & 3 to depths
that are causing a draining affect within Wetland J. The small size of the undisturbed portions of
Wetland J between Stockwell Lane and Streams 2,3&4, and the bypassing of surface flow around
this portion of Wetland J through the culverts once Stockwell Lane is constructed may result in
the hydrology being affected. Therefore, we have assessed this portion of Wetland J as a
permanent, indirect secondary impact(Impact W6 - 0.004 ac &W10 - 0.032 ac = 0.036 ac). The
attached revised PCN form and revised Wetland Impact Maps include the addition of the 0.032
ac of secondary impacts to Wetland J.
The applicant proposes to mitigate for the 0.036 ac of potential indirect secondary impacts to
Wetland J at a 1:1 mitigation ratio. The proposed mitigation in the revised PCN form has been
updated. We have also provided an updated NCDMS Letter of Acceptance to reflect the revised
mitigation as an attachment.
Additional In formation
Updated Mitigation Plan
Due to the additional permanent impacts to Wetland D,Wetland K and indirect secondary impacts
to Wetland J, the mitigation plan has been updated as noted in the following table:
Proposed Wetland Mitigation Table (Revised)
Impact Type Impacts Ratio Mitigation Proposed
Permanent Wetland Impacts 0.480 ac 2:1 0.96 ac
(Direct)
Secondary Wetland Impact 0.036 ac 1:1 0.036 ac
Total Wetland Mitigation Proposed 0.996 ac
As discussed in the original IP application, an NCSAM assessment was conducted for Stream 1
(intermittent)which determined that the functional value was"Low" due to the historic alterations
during construction of Twyla Road. An NCSAM assessment was conducted for Stream 2
(perennial)which determined the functional value was"Low" due to the degradation of the stream
from erosion. An NCSAM assessment was conducted for Stream 3 (intermittent) which
determined the functional value was "High".
Due to the"Low"functional value of Streams 1 &2, the applicant proposes to mitigate for the 793
LF of permanent impacts to Stream 1 and 188 LF of permanent impacts to Stream 2 at a 1:1
mitigation ratio. The applicant proposes to mitigate for 106 LF of permanent impacts to Stream 3
at a 2:1 mitigation ratio.

WR contacted mitigation banks that service the Cape Fear 0303000206 basin (RES/Restoration
Systems) to determine availability of stream and wetland mitigation. Neither mitigation bank has
enough stream or credits currently available to provide the total 1,193 LF of stream mitigation and
0.996 acres of wetland mitigation even when combined. Both banks are expecting future releases
of stream credits prior to issuance of the 404/401 permits. In order to provide certainty that the
applicant has the ability to provide the proposed 1,193 LF of stream mitigation and 0.996 acres of
wetland mitigation for the project, WR obtained a ILF Letter of Acceptance from NCDMS for the
entire stream and wetland mitigation proposed, which is attached. Prior to issuance of the
404/401 permits, WR will coordinate with the mitigation banks to determine what stream and
wetland credits are available at that time and will reserve as much stream mitigation credits as
possible within the banks and submit a mitigation proposal modification notification to the USACE
and NCDWR specifying the stream/wetland mitigation credits to be purchased from a mitigation
bank, or combination of mitigation banks and NCDMS (if necessary) for the preparation of the
M RTFs.
Existing Driveway Culvert Removal in Stream 1
The applicant received comments from the Town of Cary requesting that an existing 30"x 12' long
culvert within Stream 1 be removed. This is an old driveway culvert which is undersized and
restricts flow during significant rain events due to its small size. This culvert is located in the
northeastern portion of Stream 1, outside of our limits of disturbance and downstream of the
Stream 1 impact area. This culvert is where Stream 1 transitions from intermittent to perennial.
Per the Town's, the applicant will remove the culvert and restore an open channel. Once the
culvert is removed, the channel will be graded to match the shape, size, and grades of the
upstream/downstream portions of Stream 1. Removal of the culvert will be conducted during a
period with no forecasted rainfall so that work can be done in the dry. Appropriate sediment &
erosion control measures will be put in place to prevent sedimentation of the downstream waters,
including placement of biodegradable jute matting on the banks. Please note that no matting will
be placed on the stream bed.
The removal of the culvert will only result in disturbance within the existing footprint of the
culvert. Therefore,there will not be any temporary or permanent stream impacts associated with
removal of the culvert and therefore no additional impacts have been included in the PCN form or
revised Stream Impact Maps. We have noted the location of the culvert to be removed on the
Stream Impact Maps and added a note specifying that the culvert will be removed to restore an
open channel.

EXCERPT FROM APPROVED PDD FOR REQUIRED
CONNECTION OF TWYLA RD TO MORRISVILLE
PARKWAY TRAFFIC CIRCLE
1.3.3 Vehicular and Pedestrian Circulation
As shown on the Buffer, Streetscape and Circulation Plan, this site provides
internal vehicular circulation, but has limited vehicular access points. The site is bound by
NC 540 to the west, floodplain and stream buffer to the north, existing development to the
east and Morrisville Parkway to the south. The site access will be provided via a fourth
leg to the roundabout on Morrisville Parkway at the NC 540 northbound ramps with both
an ingress and egress into the site. Additionally, the existing Stockwell Lane street stub
will be extended into the property, providing access to Highcroft Drive.
Pedestrian circulation is planned in locations to limit interaction with vehicular
traffic. Additionally, sidewalks meeting current LDO standards shall be provided along
the property frontage. There is also a private greenway system.
1.3.4 Buffers and Streetscapes
Buffers and Streetscapes for the proposed PDD are per the Land Development
Ordinance (LDO) unless otherwise stated in this Document. A 15' streetscape will be
maintained along both sides of Stockwell Lane. A 30' streetscape will be maintained
along Morrisville Parkway.
1.3.5 Utilities
Water, sanitary sewer, and reclaimed water will be provided to this development
via service connection to and/or extensions of existing Town of Cary utility lines. Water
service is expected to be provided by service connection to the existing 12" water main
in Morrisville Parkway and existing 8" water main in Stockwell Lane. Sanitary sewer is
expected to be served by the existing 12" sanitary sewer main on the northern side of
the site. Reclaimed water is expected to be served by the existing 6" reclaimed water
main along Morrisville Parkway and the existing 4" main along Stockwell Lane.
1.3.6 Storm Drainage
Any future development plans must demonstrate compliance with all applicable
stormwater management requirements of the Land Development Ordinance. Additionally,
site development shall adhere to all applicable local, state, and or federal stormwater-
related statutes.
(D) Neighborhood Recreation Site

Sean,
Per our discussion a couple of weeks ago, the Twyla Road North development is proposing to tie into the 4th leg of the
roundabout currently under construction on Morrisville Pkwy at the 1-540 interchange northbound ramps. Per the
roadway plans prepared by RK&K, there is a 60' break in C/A where the 4th leg would go. As discussed we have prepared
an analysis of this intersection with and without the 4th leg for both the short-term condition with roundabouts and 2
lanes on Morrisville Parkway as well as the long-term condition with signals and 4 lanes on Morrisville Parkway.
Attached is a memorandum summarizing our findings (it works!) and our recommendations (that you allow it!). Synchro
and SIDRA analysis files are also attached.
We have discussed this with the Town of Cary. They have not reviewed this report in detail, but they are in favor and
supportive of this access connection. David and Priyatham are copied on this email.
Please let us know if you have any questions about this or if you would like hard copies.
Thank you,
Travis Fluitt, P.E.

4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The purpose of the proposed project is to construct a mixed -use, multifamily apartment complex and
commercial/retail development to provide alternative housing options for people who want to live in the Town of
Cary but cannot afford to purchase a home due to high real estate prices. .
The applicant chose the Town of Cary as the desired location for the proposed project based on numerous
factors including proximity/access to high paying jobs within Cary and surrounding municipalities, thriving
social/entertainment scene, schools, access to various transportation networks, and other factors that make Cary
a desirable place to live. The applicants market research determined that there is a deficit of affordable rental
workforce housing within the Town of Cary. Additionally, the median home price within the Town of Cary is in
excess of $600,000 (per www.Redfin.com on 6/17/2022) resulting in a significant barrier for entry into home
ownership. The high home prices and deficit in affordable rental workforce housing makes the Town of Cary the
ideal location for the proposed project. These levels of high real estate prices persist throughout Wake County.
Based on current interest rates (5.91 %) on a 30-year mortgage with 20% down ($120,00), the monthly mortgage
payment would be $2,850 per month before taxes and insurance. And interest rates continue to go up making
the purchase of a home even more expensive. The current monthly cost of home ownership is more than 30%
higher than the projected average rents for the proposed apartment complex. The proposed project will provide a
garden style apartment community which will offer a quality home to the residents of Cary who cannot afford to
purchase a home in Cary.
Additionally, the proposed project is located 0.17 miles from the Morrisville Parkway/540 interchange, allowing
residents immediate access to 540 to travel to various locations throughout the triangle and eliminating traffic
congestion on smaller roads and thoroughfares within the Town of Cary.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through project design:
Prior to site plan design, the applicant requested that a detailed wetland delineation be conducted so that
impacts to wetlands and "waters" could be minimized.
Proposed wetland and stream impacts have been minimized to only those necessary for infrastructure. There
are no proposed impacts for construction of buildings, parking, or stormwater management.
The majority of the proposed wetland and stream impacts are necessary for construction of the roads for access
to the site. The primary access to the proposed Legacy Cary development will be Twyla Road from Morrisville
Parkway. The existing connection of Twyla Road to Morrisville Parkway will be relocated to the traffic circle
because the existing intersection is too close to the traffic circle to meet NCDOT separation standards. Also,
relocating Twyla Road to connect to the traffic circle provides safer conditions for vehicles entering and leaving
Twyla Road. Aside from the relocation of the connection of Twyla Road to the Morrisville Parkway traffic circle,
Twyla Road will be improved in its current location/alignment.
Twyla Road will be a public road and is required to be improved to meet Town of Cary design standards for a
public roadway and will have a 60' ROW. Twyla Road must be widened and raised 33 feet in elevation to match
the existing elevation of Morrisville Parkway traffic circle (350' elevation) and transition the road to natural grade
at the northern cul-de-sac (282' elevation). The required improvements to Twyla Road will result in permanent
impacts to the Stream 1 (intermittent) that runs parallel to Twyla Road only a few feet from the existing edge of
pavement. As discussed in depth in the "Onsite Alternatives" section of the attached Alternatives Analysis,
various alignments and designs for Twyla Road improvements were explored and determined to not be feasible
or not resulting in a reduction of impacts to Stream 1.
The extension of Stockwell Lane is necessary to meet Town of Cary's interconnectivity requirements and will
provide a secondary access to Morrisville Parkway for residents of Fryars Gate subdivision traveling west on
Morrisville Parkway. The alignment of the Stockwell Lane extension was restricted by the location of the existing
road stub within the Fryars Gate subdivision to the east. The proposed impacts for the Stockwell Lane extension
have been minimized to the greatest extent practicable while maintaining a functional design that prevents future
disturbance to Streams 2 & 3 as discussed in depth in the "Proposed Project" section above.
Upon completion of construction of the Stockwell Lane extension, the temporary coffer dams within Wetland J,
and Streams 2 & 3 will be removed. The temporary stream impact areas restored to natural grade (bed and
bank). The stream banks will be lined with biodegradable matting and seeded, if possible, depending on the
water levels. No matting will be placed on the stream bed. Additionally, temporary wetland impact areas will be
restored to natural grade and seeded with a wetland seed mix.
The greenway trail has been designed to minimize wetland impacts to only those necessary for a riprap
dissipator for a culvert in the greenway trail to prevent erosion within Wetland F. There are no proposed wetland
or stream impacts required for construction of the greenway trail.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize proposed impacts through construction techniques:
During construction, access will occur within uplands where practical. Sediment & erosion control devices and
silt fencing will be installed prior to construction to prevent sediment from escaping into downstream waters and
also avoid disturbance wetlands and streams beyond the approved impact areas.

4h. Comments:
See PCN Cover Letter for details on the proposed compensatory mitigation.
WR contacted mitigation banks that service the Cape Fear 0303000206 basin (RES/Restoration Systems) to
determine availability of proposed stream and wetland mitigation. Neither mitigation bank has enough stream or
wetland credits currently available to provide the total 0.996 acres of wetland mitigation and 1,193 If of stream
mitigation proposed even when combined. Both banks are expecting future releases of stream and wetland
credits prior to issuance of the 404/401 permits. In order to provide certainty that the applicant has the ability to
provide the proposed stream and wetland mitigation for the project, WR obtained a ILF Letter of Acceptance
from NCDMS for the entire 0.996 acres of wetland mitigation and 1,193 If of stream mitigation proposed, which is
attached. Prior to issuance of the 404/401 permits, WR will coordinate with the mitigation banks to determine
what stream and wetland credits are available at that time and will reserve as much of each type of mitigation
credits as possible within the banks and submit a mitigation proposal modification notification to the USACE and
NCDWR specifying the wetland mitigation credits to be purchased from a mitigation bank, or combination of
mitigation banks and NCDMS (if necessary) for the preparation of the MRTFs.

Derek Boesch
Legacy Cary, LLC
25101 Chagrin Blvd, Suite 300
Beachwood, OH 44122 Expiration of Acceptance: 12/20/2022
Project: Legacy-Cary (Twyla Rd) County: Wake
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the NCDEQ Division of Mitigation Services (DMS) is willing to
accept payment for compensatory mitigation for impacts associated with the above referenced project as
indicated in the table below. Please note that this decision does not assure that participation in the DMS in-
lieu fee mitigation program will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts.
It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact permitting agencies to determine if payment to the DMS will
be approved. You must also comply with all other state, federal or local government permits, regulations or
authorizations associated with the proposed activity including G.S. § 143-214.11.
This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not
received a copy of the issued 404 Permit/401 Certification within this time frame, this acceptance will
expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to DMS. Once DMS receives a copy
of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must
be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the in-lieu fee to be paid by an applicant is
calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed on the DMS website.
Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the DMS, the compensatory mitigation
credit you are requesting is summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation required and
assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may differ from the amounts
shown below.
River Basin Impact Location Impact Type Requested Credit
(8-digit HUG)
Cape Fear 03030002 Warm Stream 1,193
Cape Fear 03030002 Riparian Wetland 0.909
Upon receipt of payment, DMS will take responsibility for providing the compensatory mitigation. The
mitigation will be performed in accordance with the In-Lieu Fee Program instrument dated July 28, 2010 and
15A NCAC 02B .0295 as applicable. Thank you for your interest in the DMS in-lieu fee mitigation program.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Kelly.Williams@ncdenr.gov.

REVISED ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS
(6/21/2022)
1110 WithersRavenel
our People. Your Success.
Legacy Cary (Twyla Rd)
Alternatives Analysis
Revised 6/21/2022
The applicant submits this discussion of alternatives to assist the USACE in evaluating the
application for authorization to discharge fill material into waters of the US. This alternatives
analysis is intended to demonstrate that there is not a practicable alternative to the proposed
project, both in location and design, which would result in less adverse impacts on the aquatic
ecosystem as required by the Section 404(b)(1) guidelines.
A. Project Location
The applicant chose the Town of Cary as the desired location for the proposed project based on
numerous factors including proximity/access to high paying jobs within Cary and surrounding
municipalities, thriving social/entertainment scene, schools, access to various transportation
networks, and other factors that make Cary a desirable place to live. The applicants market
research determined that there is a deficit of rental apartment housing within the Town of Cary.
Additionally, the median home sell price within the Town of Cary is in excess of $600,000 (per
www.Redfin.com on 6/17/2022) resulting in a high barrier for entry into home ownership. The
high home prices and deficit in rental housing options makes the Town of Cary the ideal location
for the proposed rental apartment complex.
B. Offsite Alternatives Analysis
The applicant considered four additional sites other than the preferred/proposed project site for
construction of the proposed project. A set of site selection criteria was developed to aid in the
search for suitable sites and ultimate selection of a site. The applicant's site selection criteria for
viable site selection were as follows:
1. Site Size/Yield - Total size of site may vary but generally must have -20 acres of usable
area to yield 300-500 multifamily units including necessary infrastructure. A simple
density calculation of 15-20 units per acre is used for garden style apartments. The density
calculation allows for quick evaluation of sites to determine if they can potentially yield the
required 300-500 minimum units to be feasible. While the initial density calculation may
determine that a site could potentially provide the necessary units, other factors, such as
configuration/dimensions of the site, zoning setbacks, potential streams/wetlands/riparian
buffers, FEMA floodplain, topography, stormwater requirements, etc., could further reduce
the usable area/unit yield and must be evaluated to determine feasibility of a potential site.
2. Topography - General topography of site must allow for a balanced site for grading, with
no excessive import or export of fill to manage construction costs.
3. Visibility - Must front primary traffic routes for ease of access by residents and prospective
residents and should have visibility from a major road so to be easily seen by approaching
traffic for exposure to prospective residents. Please note that there is not a specific metric
for the Visibility criteria such as a required distance from major roads, but rather having
frontage along a heavily travelled road with direct line of sight of the buildings for
commuters passing by the development.

Cur People. Your Success.
Visibility is a key component of a multifamily site evaluation because it is important for
prospective residents to be able to easily see the property, not just the signage, from the
road. A quality built property visible as one passes by on the road adds to the overall
attractiveness of a development. Strong visibility from a heavily travelled road results in
potential residents driving by the property stopping in for impromptu tours or will note the
property name and call back to schedule a tour. Based on the applicant's extensive
expertise in the rental multifamily developments, apartment complexes with visibility from
primary traffic routes have a substantially faster leasing rate than those developments that
do not have visibility from primary traffic routes. The ability to quickly lease a property to
a high occupancy rate also affects the applicant's ability to refinance an apartment complex
development from a construction loan to a commercial loan.
The Visibility criterion is even more important to the commercial/retail component of the
proposed project. The potential users/business types for the commercial/retail
component of the project consist of restaurants, banks, ABC stores, convenience stores,
small shopping centers, indoor recreation, retail stores, wellness centers, etc. All of these
potential uses/businesses rely on visibility from a heavily traveled road for exposure to
attract customers/patrons. Visibility is key to the success for any type of business that
ultimately occupy the commercial/retail component of the project.
It should be noted that the Town of Cary has a sign ordinance (Chapter 9 of the Land
Development Ordinance) that has restrictions on the location, size, and height of signage.
The sign ordinance prohibits signs in the ROW, and also requires signs for multifamily
developments be no more than 42" in height and no more than 32 sf in area. As an
example, 32 sf sign would be an 8' long x 4' tall sign, which cannot be higher than 42" off
the ground and must be located outside of the ROW. This results in small signage for the
apartment complex and commercial/retail businesses, making visibility from a heavily
travelled road even more important for the ability to quickly lease the apartment complex
and success of the commercial/retail businesses within the development.
4. Utilities - Access to existing utilities (water/sewer) adjacent to or within 0.25 miles to the
site to avoid additional construction costs for bringing utilities to the site from long
distances. The general cost to construct a water main is approximately $160/LF and the
general cost to construct a gravity sewer line is approximately $455/LF, with some
variability in cost depending on the size and type of pipe used.
5. Zoning - Existing zoning allowing for multifamily, or ability to achieve favorable rezoning
by municipality to minimize risk of substantial investment in failed rezoning effort.
6. Parking Requirements - Preferably located in sub-market/municipality supporting surface
parking, with no structured parking (parking deck) required to minimize
construction/infrastructure costs. In the event that structured parking is required due to
site size and municipal requirements, site must be located in an area supporting higher rent
and density to offset structured parking costs.
7. Aquatic Resources - The preferred site would have minimal impacts to wetlands and
streams. Not all sites could be delineated before property acquisition due to the inability
to place the site under contract, or the site being deemed unsuitable based on failure to

meet key site selection criteria the due diligence investigation halted. For those sites that
were unable to be evaluated by WR with an actual field review/delineation, quantity and
potential impacts to aquatic resources were based on best desktop review utilizing best
available data including Wake County GIS data, USGS Quads, Wake County Soil Survey,
and professional experience/knowledge of the general area.
8. Proximity to FEMA Floodplain - Building within the FEMA 100-year floodplain is
undesirable. A site with enough buildable areas outside the designated 100-year
floodplain is preferred.
A discussion of the analysis for each alternative site evaluated for feasibility. Please note that for
each Alternative Site and Preferred Site, a Parcel Exhibit, Aerial Photograph, Topography Exhibit,
Cary Utilities Exhibit, Aquatic Resources Exhibit and FEMA Floodplain exhibit have been provided
as attachments to this Alternatives Analysis.

Alternative Site 1 - Alston Avenue
This site is a four parcel assemblage (PINs: 0736019838, 0736111742, 0736117574 &
0736213153) totaling approximately 22 acres located at 2110 Alston Avenue. The site is
accessed from Alston Avenue and has approximately 2,300 LF of frontage along Alston Avenue
and approximately 320 LF of frontage along O'Kelly Chapel Road. The applicant evaluated
Alternative Site 1 (Alston Avenue) in 2017 based on site information in Wake County iMaps.
1. The site is approximately 22 acres in total size, which based on a density calculation of 15-20
units per acre could potentially yield 300-500 units. Based on Wake County iMaps, there were
five streams and a pond shown on the site. At the time of evaluation, the applicant assumed
these features existed and were likely jurisdictional to the USACE/NCDWR, which reduced
the total usable area to approximately 17 acres. Based on a density calculation of 15-20 units
per acre, the maximum yield would be 320 units. Additionally, the linear nature of the site,
required setbacks and designating sufficient area for stormwater management further reduced
the usable area for buildings and required parking even further, reducing the realistic unit yield
to well below 300 units necessary to be a feasible site. Therefore, this site does not meet the
applicant's Site Size/Yield criteria.
2. While a formal grading plan was not completed due to the applicant being unable to place the
site under contract, the general topography of the site was anticipated to require import of fill
due to the five topographic crenulations and need to fill the pond to create sufficient usable
area to meet the unit yield. Therefore, this site does not meet the applicant's Topography
criteria.
3. The site is fronted and accessed by Alston Avenue, which is a tertiary dead end road that is
not heavily traveled. Additionally, this site has limited visibility from O'Kelly Chapel Road and
NC 55 which limits visibility and exposure to prospective residents and prospective patrons to
the businesses that would occupy the commercial/retail component of the proposed project.
Therefore, this site did not meet the applicant's Visibility criteria.
4. The site has access to an existing 14" sewer force main along Alston Avenue and an existing
16" water main along O'Kelly Chapel Road and therefore meets the applicant's Utilities criteria.
Please note that the utilities depicted within the site on the Cary utilities exhibit are proposed as
part of the approved development for this site and do not currently exist.
5. This site currently has both R40 and MXD zoning and would require rezoning. Favorable
rezoning was anticipated based on guidelines provided by the Alston Regional Activity Center
Plan and therefore there was minimal risk of a failed rezoning effort. Therefore, this site meets
the client's Zoning criteria.
6. Surface parking would be allowed at this site and therefore meets the applicant's Parking
Requirements criteria.
7. Based on Wake County iMaps at the time of the applicant's evaluation of this site, there were
five streams and a pond shown on the site which the applicant assumed existed and were likely
jurisdictional to the USACE/NCDWR. The initial due diligence evaluation determined that
development of this site would require approximately 1,550 LF of stream impacts and 1.0 acre
of pond impacts in order provide -20 acres of usable area to yield 300-500 units. Therefore,
development of this site for the proposed project would result in greater impacts than the

Alternative Site 2 - Green Level West Road
This site consisted of one ±29.38 acre parcel (PIN: 0734218279) located in the northwest
quadrant of the intersection of Green Level West Road and 1-540. The site is accessed from Green
Level West Road and set back approximately 800 LF from Green Level West Road. The site has
approximately 2,200 LF of frontage along 1-540 and the Green Level West Rd exit ramp (Exit 62).
The site consists entirely of undeveloped forest land. Based on preliminary desktop evaluation by
WR, the site contains three streams which are subject to 50' riparian buffers, one of which is
subject to 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition Buffers, as well as significant wetlands along each
of the streams.
1. The site is ±29.38 acres in total size. Based on the preliminary desktop evaluation completed
by WR, there are three buffered streams and significant wetlands located within the three
topographic crenulations and therefore the site was anticipated to yield approximately 20
acres of usable uplands. A simple density calculation determined that the site could potentially
yield between 300-400 units.
The 20 acres of usable uplands is separated into three different upland areas by the onsite
buffered streams. The configuration of the separated upland areas would have resulted in
separated pods of development, creating design issues to provide enough buildings for the
required minimum 300 units and provide adequate parking and stormwater management for a
feasible site. The applicant determined that this site was unable to yield the minimum 300
units and therefore this site does not meet the applicants Site Size/Yield criteria.
2. General topography of the site is extremely steep, with elevations ranging from 348' to 296'
in elevation. Initial assessments for potential grading determined that this site would not be a
balanced site for cut/fill and therefore did not meet the applicant's Topography criteria.
3. The site does not have any visibility from Green Level West Road due to being located 800 LF
north of Green Level West Road within no frontage and access through a small driveway from
Green Level West Road. The lack of visibility from Green Level West Road, from which the
site is accessed, would result in commuters on Green Level West Road not being able to see
the apartment buildings or commercial/retail businesses within the development. Therefore,
the apartment complex and commercial/retail businesses within the development would have
to rely on signage being the primary draw for potential residents/patrons. It should be noted
that the Town of Cary has a sign ordinance (Chapter 9 of the Land Development Ordinance)
that has restrictions on the location, size, and height of signage. The sign ordinance prohibits
signs in the ROW, and also requires signs for multifamily developments be no more than 42"
in height and no more than 32 sf in area. As an example, 32 sf sign would be an 8' long x 4'
tall sign, which cannot be higher than 42" off the ground and located outside of the ROW of
Green Level West Road. Due to the lack of visibility from Green Level West Road, the ability
of passersby to become aware of the apartment complex or commercial/retail businesses
within the development would rely solely on a relatively small, short sign located beyond the
ROW of Green Level West Road.
Additionally, the site only has limited visibility from 1-540 due to trees growing within the
ROW.

Asheville 1 Cary 1 Charlotte 1 Greensboro 1 Lumberton 1 Pittsboro 1 Raleigh 1 Southern Pines 1 Wilmington

The lack of visibility from Green Level West Road would affect the ability for the apartment
complex to quickly lease to a high occupancy rate and would have a significant impact on the
success of commercial/retail businesses within the development. Therefore, this site does not
meet the applicant's Visibility criteria.
4. The site does not have any existing water or sewer utilities within or immediately adjacent.
There is an existing 30" gravity sewer main located approximately 1,100 LF west of the site
which is within the 0.25-mile feasible site criteria. While there is a proposed 12" water main
near the site along Green Level West Road, the closest existing active water main is a 20"
water main along Green Level Church Road, approximately 5,000 LF west of the site which is
beyond the applicant's 0.25 mile criteria for a feasible site.
In order to develop this site, the applicant would be responsible for cost of constructing these
utilities to the site. Based on the applicant's discussion with their contractors, construction of
the water main to the site would be $800,000 ($160/LF x 5,000 LF) and construction of the
gravity sewer line to the site would be $500,000 ($455/LF x 1,100 LF). This represents a total
cost of $1.3 million to bring utilities to Alternative Site 3. This is a substantial additional cost
which renders this site financially unfeasible and therefore this site does not meet the
applicant's Utilities criteria.
5. This site is currently zoned as R40 and would require rezoning. After initial conversations with
applicable elected officials and planning staff regarding the future land use map for the area, it
became apparent that the required zoning would be extensive, with limited opportunity for
the property to be rezoned. The risk of substantial investment in a failed rezoning effort was
too high for this site to be considered feasible, therefore this site did not meet the applicant's
Zoning criteria.
6. Surface parking would be allowed at this site. However due to site constraints the ability to
provide sufficient surface parking was estimated to be unachievable, meaning that structured
parking (parking deck) would be required. The site could not yield enough units to offset
significant costs associated with structured parking and therefore did not meet the applicant's
Parking Requirements criteria.
7. Based on preliminary desktop evaluation by WR, the site contains three streams which are
subject to 50' riparian buffers, one of which is subject to 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition
Buffers, as well as significant wetlands along each of the streams.
Due to the location of the streams and wetlands, two road crossings through the southern and
central stream and wetlands. Additionally, the northern stream and northernmost wetland
would need to be impacted in order to provide continuity with the eastern pocket of uplands
in order to create enough developable area to get close to the minimum yield of 300 units. It
is anticipated that in order for this site to be feasible, approximately 700 LF of stream impacts
and 0.5 acres of wetland impacts would be required, which is comparable to the preferred
alternative. However, the ability to obtain USACE and NCDWR authorizations to impact the
northern stream and riparian buffers for construction of apartment buildings and parking was
not realistic and therefore this site did not meet the applicant's Aquatic Resources criteria.
9. This site does not contain a mapped FEMA 100-year floodplain and therefore meets the
applicant's Floodplain criteria.

Preferred Alternative - Twyla Road (Cary)
The Preferred Alternative (Proposed Legacy -Cary) is ±36.42 acres in size and consists of an
assemblage of thirteen (13) parcels (PINs: 735203489, 735203991, 735217059, 735209946,
735209740, 735209448, 735209159, 734392943, 734390881, 734390677, 734297619,
734294615, 734294807) located at 1112 Twyla Road. The site is primarily forested and contains
several single family dwellings which have been vacated. The project site contains five streams,
including Panther Creek, which all drain to Panther Creek and ultimately Jordan Lake.
Additionally, the project site contains eleven (11) headwater forest wetlands. A Preliminary
Jurisdictional Determination (SAW-2018-02111) was issued by the USACE on 12/15/2021
approving the delineation. Three of the streams (Streams 1, 2 & 5) are subject to both 50' Jordan
Lake Riparian Buffers and 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition Buffers.
Site Size/Conditions
1. The site is ±36.42-acres in total size. Onsite constraints including wetlands, streams, 50'
Jordan Lake Riparian Buffers and 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition Buffers reduce the total
developable upland area to approximately 25 acres. The ±25-acres of developable uplands
consist of two separate areas: an ±17-acre area east of Twyla Road and an ±8-acre area west
of Twyla Road. The site is further constrained by the requirement to extend the existing stub
of Stockwell Lane to Twyla Road, as well as improve Twyla Road to meet Town design
standards and relocate the connection to Morrisville Parkway to the existing traffic circle.
Based on the size and configuration of the usable uplands, the preferred site yields a total of
390 units with enough area to provide surface parking and stormwater management.
Therefore, the preferred site meets the applicant's Site Size/Yield criteria.
2. The general topography of the site ranges from 342' to 292'. The engineering evaluation of
the site grading determined that this site would be balanced, with no major import or export
of fill necessary and therefore meets the applicant's Topography criteria.
3. The site has frontage Morrisville Parkway which is a heavily traveled road providing ample
visibility for prospective residents and commercial/retail business patrons which meets the
applicant's Visibility criteria.
4. The site has access to an existing 12" gravity sewer line immediately adjacent to the north and
an existing 8" water main located within Stockwell Lane to the east and therefore meets the
applicant's Utilities criteria.
5. This site is currently zoned as PDD Major which is the appropriate zoning for the proposed
project and therefore meets the applicant's Zoning criteria.
6. Surface parking is allowed at this site which meets the applicant's Required Parking criteria.
7. This site contains five streams, including Panther Creek, and eleven (11) headwater forest
wetlands. The proposed project will result in 1,087 LF of permanent stream impacts and 0.442
acres of permanent wetland impacts, most of which are necessary for the construction of the
Stockwell Lane extension and improvements to Twyla Road, which is the primary access to the
site. The required impacts to develop this site are less than Alternative 1 (Alston Ave) and
comparable to Alternative 2 (Green Level West Road). The majority of the stream impacts
(793 LF) will occur to Stream 1 for improvements to Twyla Road to match the existing elevation

of Morrisville Parkway. Stream 1 was historically channelized during construction of Twyla
Road and has "Low" function based on NCSAM. Additionally, Stream 2 experiences severe
erosion due to excessive runoff from Morrisville Parkway and has "Low" function based on
NCSAM. The quantity of impact was minimized to the extent practical and will not result in
an overall significant loss of aquatic function within the basin. Therefore, the preferred
alternative meets the applicant's Aquatic Resources criteria.
9. This site contains an area of mapped FEMA 100-year floodplain in the northeastern corner of
the site. However, there is no proposed development within the FEMA 100-year floodplain.
This site meets the applicant's Floodplain criteria.

C. Onsite Alternatives Analysis
The project was evaluated for alternative layouts and design in an effort to minimize impacts to
wetlands, streams, and riparian buffers. Site constraints on design include the onsite wetlands and
streams, 50' Jordan Lake Riparian Buffers and 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition Buffers, which
limits the configuration of the project design while still allowing for a functional and feasible
project. The proposed site plan maximizes the use of onsite uplands for construction of all
buildings, parking, and stormwater treatment. The majority of proposed impacts are for roads
necessary to provide access to the project.
The design of the Stockwell Lane extension was constrained due to the existing stub within the
Fryars Gate subdivision to the east. Therefore, the alignment of the Stockwell Lane extension
across Wetland J and Streams 2 & 3 could not be modified and therefore there is no alternative
for the impacts associated within this crossing.
The primary access to the proposed Legacy Cary development will be Twyla Road from Morrisville
Parkway. The existing connection of Twyla Road to Morrisville Parkway will be relocated to the
traffic circle because the existing intersection is too close to the traffic circle to meet NCDOT
separation requirements. Also, relocating Twyla Road to connect to the traffic circle provides safer
conditions for vehicles entering and leaving Twyla Road. The following alternative designs for
Twyla Road were explored:
1. Relocation of Twyla Road to the East - abandoning the existing alignment of Twyla Road
and building a new road to the east would avoid impacts to Stream 1. However, this would
have further reduced the developable area within the eastern portion of the site and would
have resulted in the elimination of Buildings 2 & 3 (see attached Overall Site Plan), resulting
in a loss of 138 units. Therefore, the project would have only yielded 252 units, which is
less than the applicant's criteria of 300-500 units and therefore this was not a feasible
alternative.
2. Relocation of Twyla Road to the West - abandoning the existing alignment of Twyla Road
and constructing a new road to the west of the current location would have avoided 253
LF of impacts to the upper reach of Stream 1 (Impact S1) upstream of the culvert beneath
Twyla Road but would have still resulted in 147 LF of impacts (Impact S2) to the lower
reach of Stream 1 below the culvert beneath Twyla Road. While this alignment would
significantly reduce impacts to Stream 1, it would have required relocations of Twyla Road
through the parcel owned by the Town of Cary (PIN: 0735203193).
Additionally, this alternative alignment would have resulted in a loss of approximately 30
parking spaces within the proposed parking lot on the west side of Twyla Road. The site
as designed meets the minimum parking spaces required by the Town of Cary. The loss of
parking spaces for this alternative alignment would result in the project not meeting Town
of Cary's parking requirements and units would have to be eliminated. Therefore, the loss
of parking and buildings would render the project unable to meet the client's project
purpose, need and feasibility, and therefore this was not a feasible alternative.
3. Use of Retaining Walls to Stabilize Road Fill - Twyla Road will be a public road and is
required to be improved to meet Town of Cary design standards for a public roadway and
219 Station Road, Suite 101 1 Wilmington, NC 28405

will have a 60' ROW. Twyla Road must be widened and raised 33 feet in elevation to match
the existing elevation of Morrisville Parkway traffic circle (350' elevation) and transition
the road to natural grade at the northern cul-de-sac (282' elevation). The use of retaining
walls to stabilize road fill was explored during the design of the Twyla Road improvements.
As shown in the attached Twyla Road Cross -Section Details, even with the use of retaining
walls varying in height from 7-10 feet, the retaining wall would need to be located beyond
Stream 1 to provide the required width and minimum slope of the road shoulder. Due to
the substantial cost of retaining walls of this size and length with no minimization of
impacts, retaining walls were not considered a feasible alternative.
4. Relocation of Stream 1 On Either Side of Twyla Road - Relocation of Stream 1 to the west
side of the improved Twyla Road is not feasible onsite alternative because it would require
the stream to be relocated onto a parcel not owned by the applicant (PIN: 0735203193).
If Stream 1 were relocated to the west side of Twyla Road, the 50' Jordan Lake Riparian
Buffers and 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition Buffers would encumber most of this
parcel, rendering the parcel unusable. Additionally, relocation of Stream 1 to the west
would result in only short sections of open channel, with the majority of the stream still
being piped to allow for construction of the western parking area and SCM. Therefore, the
relocated portions of Stream 1 would have little functional value, thereby not resulting in
any significant minimization of impacts to Stream 1, and the functional value of Stream 1
is better served through provision of mitigation in a regionally significant mitigation site.
Relocation of Stream 1 to the east side of the improved Twyla Road is not a feasible onsite
alternative because the 50' Jordan Lake Buffers and 100' Town of Cary Urban Transition
Buffers would be pushed further into the eastern portion of the project site. This would
greatly reduce the developable area within the eastern portion of the project site, resulting
in the elimination of several buildings and parking which would reduce the total unit yield
to well below the 300 unit minimum necessary for the project to be feasible.
5. Bridging of Stockwell Lane Extension - Based on information provided by WithersRavenel
engineers familiar with the cost of bridge construction, the general cost for construction
of a two-lane concrete bridge is approximately $8,000/LF.
Bridging the Stockwell Lane extension to avoid impacts to Streams 2 & 3 would require a
250 LF bridge to connect to the existing Stockwell Lane road stub and span the entirety
Streams 2 & 3 to avoid impacts. The approximate cost of the bridge would be $2 million.
There would also be additional costs resulting from having to hire a bridge contractor to
construct the bridge.
Please note the proposed project has not been issued for bid, so the actual cost of
construction of the Stockwell Lane as proposed (traditional culverted road) is not known
at this time. However, based on industry standard costs for similar roadways, the
approximate cost of construction is $250/LF. Construction of this same 250 LF section of
Stockwell Lane is approximately $62,500. Also, assuming $100,000 cost for necessary
additional fill and $200,000 for the approximate cost of the two culverts, the total
approximate cost for construction of Stockwell Lane as a traditional culverted road would
be around $362,500. The cost of a bridge is over 5 times higher than the cost of a

traditional culverted road. Therefore, bridging the Stockwell Lane extension is not a
practicable onsite alternative due to the $2 million cost.
6. Bridging of Twyla Road - Based on information provided by WithersRavenel engineers
familiar with the cost of bridge construction, the general cost for construction of a two-
lane concrete bridge is approximately $8,000/LF.
In order to utilize a bridge for the Twyla Road improvements, a 950 LF bridge would be
required to avoid impacts to Stream 1, which would cost approximately $7.6 million. This
design would also result in Stream 1 being located beneath the bridge for the entire
length of the bridge, resulting in secondary impacts such as shading.
The cost of construction of the improvements to Twyla Road at the $250/LF is
approximately $237,500. Also, assuming $300,000 cost for bringing in additional fill to
construct the road, the total approximate cost for construction of Twyla Road as a
traditional road would be around $537,500. The cost of a bridge is 14 times higher than
the cost of a traditional road. Therefore, bridging the Twyla Road is not a practicable
onsite alternative due to the $7.6 million cost.
The proposed design represents the minimization of impacts to wetlands and streams to the
maximum extent practicable while maintaining a feasible project that meets the applicant's project
purpose and need.
D. No Action/No Permit Alternative
If the USACE opted to not issue the permit for this project as proposed, there would continue to
be a deficit of alternative housing options within the Town of Cary where the cost to purchase
housing is extremely difficult due to high real estate values. Therefore, the applicant's purpose
and need would not be met and therefore a No Action/No Permit Alternative is not a viable
alternative.

Dear Mr. Boesch:
Please reference your Individual Permit application for Department of the Army
(DA) authorization to permanently discharge dredged or fill material into a total of 0.164
acre (1,107 linear feet) of stream channel and 0.372 acre of riparian wetlands
associated with the construction of a mixed -use multifamily apartment complex and
commercial/retail development, as well as associated infrastructure. Roadway
improvements associated with this project are proposed along Twyla Road and the
extension of Stockwell Lane. The project area is located at 1112 Twyla Road, north of
Morrisville Parkway in Cary, Wake County, North Carolina.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Wilmington District (Corps) advertised your
proposal by public notice dated April 12, 2022. Comments in response to the notice
were received from the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR), North
Carolina Department of Natural and Cultural Resources (NCDNCR), U.S. National
Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), and the Town of Cary (TOC). The comments
received are enclosed for your information and to provide you with the opportunity to
address any of the stated concerns. Additionally, please provide written responses to
the comments from NCDWR and the TOC. Specifically, please address the TOC
concerns regarding your stated project purpose and how affordable rental workforce
housing would be achieved. Please address NCDWR's concerns regarding affordable
housing, site selection criteria, and project feasibility referencing financials for each
project alternative in comparison to the preferred alternative.
Please note that the NCDNCR stated that they are not aware of any historic
properties that would be affected by the project; and therefore, have no comment on the
project as proposed. Furthermore, the NMFS, in a letter dated April 15, 2022, stated
that the proposed project would not occur in the vicinity of essential fish habitat (EFH)
designated by the South Atlantic Fishery Management Council, Mid -Atlantic Fishery
Management Council, or the NMFS, and that they are neither supportive of nor in
opposition to authorization of the proposed work.
Further, on February 6, 1990, the Department of the Army (DA) and the EPA signed
a memorandum of agreement (MOA) establishing procedures to determine the type and
level of mitigation necessary to comply with Clean Water Act (CWA) Section 404(b)(1)
Guidelines. This MOA provides for first, avoiding impacts to waters and wetlands
through the selection of the least damaging, practical alternative; second, taking
appropriate and practical steps to reduce impacts on waters and wetlands; and finally,
compensation for remaining unavoidable impacts to the extent appropriate and
practical. To enable us to process your application, in compliance with the MOA, we
request that you provide the following additional information:
A. Permits for work within wetlands or other special aquatic sites are available
only if the proposed work is the least environmentally damaging, practicable
alternative. Please furnish information regarding any other alternatives,
including upland alternatives, to the work for which you have applied and
provide justification that your selected plan is the least damaging to water or
wetland areas.
i. The Corps disagrees with your stated Purpose and Need, given that
the term "affordable housing" is not defined. Please note that the
Corps makes the final determination regarding Basic and Overall
Purpose and Need for a project. Based on your application, we have
determined the Purpose and Need of your project to be the following:
Basic: To construct a mixed -use, multifamily apartment complex and
commercial/retail development.
Overall: To construct a mixed -use multifamily apartment complex and
commercial/retail development to meet the existing housing demand in
Town of Cary and Wake County.
ii. For the off -site alternatives analysis, several siting criteria presented
are not adequately justified in the application:
a. The terms "Size/Yield" were used but not adequately explained,
and it is unclear what the size requirements are for potentially
smaller sites that may use a parking deck to minimize impacts.
b. "Access" is used as a siting criterion; however, it is not clear
that, to be a practicable alternative, a multifamily housing and
commercial development must be located within'/2 mile of an
interstate.
-2-
c. "Visibility" is used as a siting criterion; however, this criterion
seems restrictive for the proposed project as it is not
measurable. Please elaborate on the required distance for
visibility from major roads and provide that supporting
documentation.
d. "Utilities" is used as a siting criterion; however, this criterion
does not provide any information pertaining to differences to
provide utilities to all alternatives, if needed. A cost comparison
should be provided for each alternative.
e. If 20 acres of developable upland is required for the proposed
project, please explain why off -site areas that offered less than
20 acres of developable upland were assessed? This basic
requirement should be met for all alternatives for them to be
considered.
f. The Corps is interested in additional information referencing
Alternative Site 1 — Alston Avenue, as it appears this would be
the least environmentally damaging alternative resulting in no
impacts to waters of the US. Please reevaluate and address
the Site Selection Criteria. Specifically, please explain if site
size requirements would be met if a parking deck were used for
the site. Also, please provide a cost estimate to import fill to the
site.
B. It is necessary for you to have taken all appropriate and practicable steps to
minimize losses of Waters of the U.S., including wetlands. Please indicate all
that you have done, especially regarding development and modification of
plans and proposed construction techniques, to minimize adverse impacts.
i. Please provide additional information regarding the Stockwell Lane
extension. Specifically, could the Stockwell Lane extension be used as
primary access for the proposed development, thereby eliminating the
need to relocate Twyla Road?
ii. Could additional avoidance and minimization be achieved by relocating
Stream 1 and/or Stream 2 on either side of Twyla Road?
-3-
iii. Regarding the Twyla Road improvements and Stockwell Lane
extension, could additional avoidance and minimization of streams and
wetlands be achieved by bridging?
iv. Please confirm that wetland impacts are not proposed for Wetland D. If
so, please update the site application and plan sheets accordingly.
Additionally, the following items must be resolved prior to continuing to process your
permit request:
1) Please copy the Corps on your response to NCDWR's Request for Additional
Information letter dated May 11, 2022.
2) Please note that responses to the questions above may prompt additional
information requests to allow full evaluation of the proposed project.
The above requested information is essential to the expeditious processing of your
application; please forward this information to us within 30 days of your receipt of this
letter. If you have any questions regarding these matters, please contact me at (919)

Legacy - Cary
Dear Mr. Boesch:
On March 31, 2022, the Division of Water Resources (Division) received your application requesting a
401 Individual Water Quality Certification from the Division for the subject project. The Division has
determined that your application is incomplete and cannot be processed. The application is on -hold
until all of the following information is received:
1. If the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requests a response to any comments received as a result
of the Public Notice, please provide the Division with a copy of your response to the USACE.
2. The application states that Twyla Rd is required to be constructed to the northern cul-de-sac.
Please provide further justification for the need for road improvements beyond the traffic
circle at the entrance into Legacy Cary. It is not evident that the impacts associated with this
portion of the road are necessary.
3. Will these roadways be conveyed to the Town upon completion? Please clarify.
4. Please clarify how stormwater will be collected and treated from the improved Twyla Rd and
the new portion of Stockwell Lane. Please note that if the road is to become a publicly
maintained roadway then stormwater from the roadway must be treated in accordance with
regulations applicable to linear transportation facilities. If the road, or any portion thereof,
will not be maintained by the Town or NCDOT in the future then all stormwater from the
roadway must be treated as part of the development.
5. The application states that Stream 2 is an intermittent channel, however Figure 6 indicates
that the stream is Perennial. Please clarify. Based on remote mapping it appears that Stream
2 is sufficiently large to be classified as Perennial throughout the project limits.
6. Please provide NCDWR stream forms to support the classification of Streams 1 and 3 as
intermittent streams/stream segments.

7. Please clarify if Wetland K has been delineated by the USACE. Figure 6 and Wetland Impact
maps show Wetland K, however the figure attached to the USACE JD does not include a
wetland at this location.
8. The Impact maps and PCN application do not appear to include impacts to Wetland D
however the proposed site plan appears to eliminate Wetland D.
9. Impacts to Wetland E appears to be for the purpose of "future commercial use". In order to
adequately document Avoidance and Minimization, please provide a specific site plan for this
development area. It appears that impacts to this wetland could be minimized by reducing
the fill area slightly which would still provide for a sufficient area for future commercial use.
10. The application states that further avoidance and minimization cannot accomplished because
it would cause a loss in area to provide stormwater control measure (SCM). While the
Division recognizes the need for the project to provide for property stormwater
management, there are wide variety of treatment options for meeting stormwater
requirements, including providing multiple smaller SCMs, SCMs that can be integrated into
greenspace, and/or require smaller acreage. Please either provide further justification for
this statement or remove it from the onsite alternative analysis.
11. Please clarify why the culvert for Stream 3 is proposed to be installed at a 2% slope to reduce
outlet velocity, however the culvert for Stream 2 is proposed for a 2.83% slope. Given that
Stream 3 starts under the roadway fill, it is unclear what surface flow would be generating
increased velocity.
12. Please provide a restoration plan detail and vegetation planting plan for the temporary
impact areas.
13. The Division questions whether Stream 4 will continue to function at the same level upon
construction of Stockwell Lane. It appears to be a stream that is formed by flow from the
upslope wetland. Construction of Stockwell Lane will divert most of the flow in the area into
the two culverts, therefore bypassing Stream 4, starving its hydrology, and reducing its
function.
14. Please clarify how the riprap dissipators will be installed such that the remainder of Wetland
J below the culverts will continue to function. The Division is concerned that excavation of
the area to install the culverts and the large dissipators will cause significant changes to the
hydrology of the wetland in this area.
Pursuant to Title 15A NCAC 02H .0502(e), the applicant shall furnish all of the above requested
information for the proper consideration of the application. Please respond in writing within 30
calendar days of receipt of this letter by submitting all of the above requested information through this

If all of the requested information is not received within 30 calendar days of receipt of this letter, the
Division will be unable to approve the application and it will be denied as incomplete. The denial of this
project will necessitate reapplication to the Division for approval, including a complete application
package and the appropriate fee.
