RE: Request for Additional Information
Albemarle Road Development Site
DWR# 20220436
Ms. Homewood,
This letter is provided by Wetlands & Waters, Inc. on behalf of Forestar Group, Inc. (project proponent) in response
to a request for additional information from the NC Division of Water Resources (DWR) dated August 10, 2022.
Requests from DWR are italicized, with our responses in bold.
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.
Comment received—we will ensure the Division (DWR) is supplied with a copy of our responses to
USACE.
2. In order to accurately document DWR mitigation requirements, please provide DWR Stream Forms for all
stream segments. Please include a map that clearly identifies all transition locations w ithin streams.
Stream forms provided to USACE and the Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) issued by
USACE are included in Attachment A with this response. The AJD illustrates stream transitions.
3. The Division understands that the majority of impacts labeled as “Future” are within future phases of the
development proposed for construction at a later date; however, it appears that Future Perm Wetland
Impact I3 and Future Perm. Impact R9 are within the current proposed construction phase. Please clari fy
why these impacts are labeled as “Future”.
A revised and corrected plan set—showing that all impacts are disclosed as one permit application,
proposed under a Standard (Individual) Permit—was provided to USACE for the purpose of the Public
Notice and initiation of the Individual Permit process. A copy of the plan set supplied to USACE is
included in Attachment B with this letter. The subject plan set clarifies this item.
4. Future Permanent Impact R9, Future Perm Isolated Wetlands Impact I3 and Future Perm. Wetland Impact
C1000-1100 are not listed within the PCN Table of Impacts; please update the tables accordingly. Please
also make any corresponding updates to mitigation totals and mitigation acceptance letters.
Please refer to the updated plan set and Attachment C, which includes the Public Notice posted by
USACE and an updated impact inventory.

5. For all locations where multiple culverts are proposed, the plan sheets must clearly detail that low flows
shall be accommodated in one culvert/pipe and additional culverts/pipes shall be installed such that they
receive only flows above bankfull. Please provide design details that clearly show floodplain benc h
construction and/or sills at the inlet and outlet of the culverts to ensure tha t the stream is not over widened
on either end of the culvert. Please also provide a profile view of all stormflow culverts.
The plan set included with this response illustrates that many of the crossings were redesigned to
accommodate low-flow conditions.
6. The Division appreciates the modifications that have been proposed to the culvert design at Stream Impact
R3. The Division remains concerned about streambank stability during high flow conditions and is unclear
that streambank riprap will be sufficient given the alignment of the culverts. Please provide engineering
calculations to document velocity and appropriate riprap sizing and installation. Please provide plan and
provide construction details for the enhanced riprap outlet apron. The details should clearly show how
natural stream flow and conditions will be maintained within a low flow channel within the enhanced
riprap apron. It is the Division’s experience that when excessively wide riprap aprons are required for
velocity control and/or stability that natural stream function is not maintained and therefore these impacts
should be considered as permanent loss of stream.
This request will be coordinated with project engineers and additional data will be provided in our next
response.
7. For structures less than 72” in diameter/width, and topographic constraints indicate culvert slopes of
greater than 2.5% culvert burial is not recommended; however, the applicant must document that all
alternative options for flattening the slope have been investigated and aquatic life movement/connectivity
has been provided when possible (e.g. rock ladders, cross-vanes, sills, baffles, etc.). Please address this
comment with regards to the culverts proposed at Stream Impact R2.
The R2 crossing will be further evaluated with the project engineers to determine if it is advisable to redesign
the crossing to avoid culvert burial.
8. You have provided additional information which indicates that culvert sizes are required for drainage area
and that smaller culverts are not feasible. In addition, you have stated that “the narrow OHWM at impact
R8 is a result of entrenchment of the stream system”. These statements do not address the concern that
stream function will be negatively impacted by culverts which are substantially wider than the streams. The
proposed design will create a wider stream channel which will lower the depth of the channel and decrease
flow, increase temperature, increase sediment deposition and reduce aquatic passage. Please provide
culvert designs which manage the drainage area while maintaining existing stream function above and
below the culverts.
Please refer to the plan set included in Attachment B, which incorporate culvert designs that manage the
drainage area while maintaining existing stream function above and below the culverts.
9. It appears that Stream Impact R1 may disconnect a very small portion of the tributary above the crossing
in such a way that it is likely to remove it’s existing uses/functions. This would constitute indirect impacts
to this portion of stream for a loss of function. Please provide updated plans that clearly show the impacts
in relation to the stream start location and if appropriate, please update the PCN to account for this length
of stream as indirect impacts or modify the crossing location and update the PCN and plan sheets
accordingly.
The hydrology of this reach of stream is supplemented with groundwater and there are no proposed impacts
to this reach of stream bed, therefore the existing use and function of this reach of stream should continue.

10. Pursuant to 15A NCAC 02H .0506(b), “a 401 Water Quality Certification may only be issued upon
determining that the proposed activity will comply with state water quality standards which includes
designated uses, numeric criteria, narrative criteria and the state’s antidegradation policy, as defined in
rules 15A NCAC 02B .0200…In assessing whether the proposed activity will comply with water quality
standards, the Division shall evaluate if the proposed activity: (2) would cause or contribute toa violation
of water quality standards; (3) would result in secondary or cumulative impacts that cause or contribute to,
or will cause or contribute to, a violation of water quality standards;” In order for the Division to fully
evaluate potentially hydrological impacts on some stream and wetland features within the project limits,
please provide the location of all outlet structures from the SCMs shown on the proposed plan sheet. In
order to avoid further requests for additional information upon receipt of the response to this item, the
Division strongly encourages that you carefully evaluate the proposed site plan for locations where
existing surface hydrology will be redirected which would have the potential to remove or reduce the
existing functions of a stream and/or wetland. Ased on the current proposed plan the Division believes
there is potential for indirect impacts to some features within the overall project limits.
The plans included with this response show proposed SCM outlet locations, illustrated as bold lines.
11. Please provide a conceptual construction schedule for all impacts proposed within the application. Please
note that mitigation will be required for ALL impacts unless a mitigation schedule is requested, reviewed
and approved by the Division. Please note that any 401 issued by the Division will expire upon expiration
of the 404 Permit.
A conceptual construction schedule is being developed in coordination with the project proponent and project
engineer, and will be provided in a later response.
The remaining information requested will be coordinated with project engineers. We will provide a
response to your agency within the next thirty (30) days. Please don’t hesitate to contact us should more
information be required at this time.
Best,
Chris Huysman

Indicate Which of the Following Apply:
A. Preliminary Determination
_ There appear to be waters, including wetlands, on the above described property, that may be subject to Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including wetlands, have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently
accurate and reliable. Therefore this preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process,
including determining compensatory mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation
requirements, and other resource protection measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all
waters and wetlands that would be affected in any way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional
waters of the U.S. This preliminary determination is not an appealable action under the Regulatory Program
Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part 331). However, you may request an approved JD, which is an
appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further instruction.
_ There appear to be waters, including wetlands, on the above described property, that may be subject to Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including wetlands, have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently
accurate and reliable. Therefore this preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process,
including determining compensatory mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation
requirements, and other resource protection measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all
waters and wetlands that would be affected in any way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional

Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403).
However, since thewaters, including wetlands, have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction
determination may not be used in the permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary
determination is merely an effective presumption of CWA/RHA jurisdiction over all of the waters, including wetlands, at
the project area, which is not sufficiently accurate and reliable to support an enforceable permit decision. We recommend
that you have the waters of the U.S., including wetlands, on your property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to
accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that
can be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination

Location
Location Description: The project site is located south of the intersection of Morrison
Road and Lower Rocky River Road, near the Town of Midland in Cabarrus County, NC.
Project Area (acres): Approximately 637 acres Nearest Town: Midland
Nearest Waterway: Caldwell Creek River Basin: Yadkin 03040105
Latitude and Longitude: 35.248225 N ‐80.607505 W
Existing Site Conditions
The project site consists of open fields, forested areas, and areas transitioning to early
and mid-successional growth. The site is currently vacant. Open areas are maintained
in agricultural pastureland and hayfields. Cabarrus County is located in the Piedmont
physiographic province. The landscape is generally characterized by flat to moderately
steep landscapes. The project area is characterized by flat to steep landscapes.
Dominant soils (Cullen clay loam) are characterized by 2 to 8 percent slopes,
moderately eroded.
The FEMA FIRMs mapping identifies portions of the project area as occurring within the
100-year floodplain. An aquatic resources delineation was completed within the project
area. Subsequently, a request for an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AJD) was
submitted to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). The aquatic resources
delineation was field verified by USACE on September 29, 2021. Waters of the US
located on the property include approximately 27,145 linear feet of stream channel,
49.39 acres of wetlands, and 3.11 acres of open waters. Other waters on site that are
not considered Waters of the US include approximately 0.938 acres of isolated wetlands
and 0.242 acres of ponds. The site is located in the Yadkin Pee Dee River Basin.
Project area waters drain to Caldwell Creek, a named tributary within the 03040105
United States Geological Survey (USGS) Hydrologic Unit Code (HUC).
Applicant’s Stated Purpose
The applicant provided the following purpose statement:
“The basic project purpose is to develop residential housing for the Town of Midland
submarket.
The overall project purpose is to develop residential housing to meet current and future
demand in the Town of Midland submarket.”
Project Description
The proposed project consists of a cluster-style development of a single-family
residential detached community comprised of both Traditional development and Active
Adult development types. Proposed impacts to Waters of the US associated with the
Version 5.12.2022 Page 3
project include the permanent impact to 0.57 acres of wetlands and 1,235 lf of stream
channel and the temporary impact to 0.43 acres of wetlands and 510 lf of stream
channel. In detail, the proposed project consists of 1,216 single-family residences. The
western portion of the proposed development consists of Traditional development, while
the eastern portion consists of Active Adult development. An additional detached estate
lot development is depicted west of Howell Center Drive. The proposed development
includes appurtenant infrastructure such as internal circulation roads, amenities,
stormwater control measures, and sanitary sewer. Amenities include (but are not limited
to) a traditional amenity area, an Active Adult amenity area, pocket parks, and natural
trails. Approximately 173.94 acres (25%) of open space (both active and passive) is
proposed. Entrances to the development would be constructed off of Pioneer Mill Road,
Morrison Road, Lower Rocky River Road, and Albemarle Road.
An 80-foot landscape buffer would be provided along project frontage on existing public
roads (Lower Rocky River Road, Morrison Road, Pioneer Mill Road, and Albemarle
Road). In numerous areas of the project, open space and undisturbed areas are
combined with perimeter buffers to increase the contiguous acreage of preserved areas.
The project would be designed to Phase II stormwater standards, subject to review and
approval by the State of North Carolina Division of Water Quality. While the stormwater
plan has not been finalized, it is anticipated that 17 stormwater control measures would
be required to satisfy the stormwater management needs of the site. Basins used for
the sediment and erosion control plan would be converted to approved stormwater
basins to ensure continuity of protection of surface waters. The project would be served
by public water and sewer provided by the City of Concord.
Construction of the proposed project would require permanent and temporary impacts
to Waters of the U.S. and Waters of the State to establish access to high-ground
developable area, to grade and balance the site so that practicable development can
occur, to construct residential units, and to establish sanitary sewer infrastructure within
interior portions of the development and connect to existing sanitary sewer
infrastructure to serve the development.
Avoidance and Minimization
The applicant provided the following information in support of efforts to avoid and/or
minimize impacts to the aquatic environment:
The applicant’s preferred alternative is the result of multiple site redesigns that
consecutively reduced proposed impacts through site design and construction
techniques. Avoidance and minimization efforts are detailed below.
Site Design
The proposed project is the result of three site redesigns that successfully reduced net
permanent impacts with each consecutive redesign. With the current site plan, the
number of single-family residences was reduced by 94 lots, and dwelling units per acre
Version 5.12.2022 Page 4
(DUA) was reduced from 1.9 DUA to an average of 1.75 DUA. From the first site design
to the current site design, proposed permanent impacts to streams were reduced by
6,314 linear feet and proposed permanent impacts to wetlands were reduced by 7.06
acres.
The PRD District zoning enables the applicant to construct the overall development in
clusters, where the active area of disturbance is minimized to only the phase being
currently constructed to completion, therefore minimizing the potential for downstream
impacts to aquatic resources. The site design incorporates approximately 173.94 acres
(25%) of open space, which is in excess of the 10% open space requirement by Town
of Midland. Incorporating open space in excess of the requirement is a result of
observing stream buffers and avoiding jurisdictional aquatic features. Designing the
project to incorporate open space beyond the minimum necessary further minimizes
potential impacts to the aquatic environment by minimizing disturbed areas and
preserving habitat.
ADA-accessible sidewalks are required per Town of Midland development standards
and zoning specifications, therefore impacts associated with the implementation of
sidewalks at road crossings are unavoidable but have been minimized to the maximum
extent practicable. The site plan has been designed with the minimum number of road
crossings necessary to achieve the project purpose.
Retaining walls have been incorporated around the perimeter of residential lot
development in stream buffer and floodplain areas to minimize impacts to the riparian
buffer, regulatory floodplain, and high-quality wetlands in these areas.
Stormwater outfalls will be designed to discharge as far upgradient as is practicable at
the top of tributaries to avoid dewatering of the channels and to avoid the potential loss
of groundwater discharge as a result of development upslope. Stormwater Control
Measure (SCM) outfalls will be designed to minimize flow velocities for storms that
exceed the 50-year storm event through a combination of increased cross-sectional
area with large riprap dissipator pads.
Streets and Road Crossings
Streets within the Extraterritorial Zoning Jurisdiction that will be maintained by the Town
of Midland upon annexation of the completed development areas must be constructed
to Town of Midland Technical Standards and Specifications Manual and the Town of
Midland Development Ordinance. These standards directed street layouts, crossing
designs, and the overall development design.
Compensatory Mitigation
The applicant offered the following compensatory mitigation plan to offset unavoidable
functional loss to the aquatic environment:
Version 5.12.2022 Page 5
The applicant proposes to compensate for 911 linear feet of permanent streambed loss
due to fill for road construction at a 2:1 mitigation ratio, 1 acre of 404 riparian wetland
loss and permanent conversion of forested wetlands at a 2:1 mitigation ratio, and 0.8
acre of non-404 basin wetland loss at a 2:1 mitigation ratio. A credit search of the Army
Corps of Engineers RIBITS system returned with partial credit availability at the private
commercial Upper Rocky Umbrella Mitigation Bank, which is in the same Hydraulic Unit
Code (HUC) as the proposed project and in the Primary Service Area. If no additional
credit releases from private mitigation banks within the Primary Service Area are
available at the time a 404/401 permit is acquired, the applicant proposes to utilize the
In-Lieu Fee (ILF) program for the remaining credit need.
The project proponent proposes a 10-year permit authorization to allow for flexibility to
respond to market conditions over a build-out period of 10 years. The project proponent
proposes phased mitigation.
Essential Fish Habitat
The project area occurs in the inland county of Cabarrus County, North Carolina, and
therefore contains no Essential Fisheries Habitat. No adverse impacts to Essential Fish
Habitat will result from the proposed project
Cultural Resources
Pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, Appendix C
of 33 CFR Part 325, and the 2005 Revised Interim Guidance for Implementing Appendix
C, the District Engineer consulted district files and records and the latest published
version of the National Register of Historic Places and initially determines that:
Should historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National
Register, be present within the Corps’ permit area; the proposed activity requiring
the DA permit (the undertaking) is a type of activity that will have no potential to
cause an effect to historic properties.
No historic properties, nor properties eligible for inclusion in the National
Register, are present within the Corps’ permit area; therefore, there will be no
historic properties affected. The Corps subsequently requests concurrence from
the SHPO (or THPO).
Properties ineligible for inclusion in the National Register are present within the
Corps’ permit area; there will be no historic properties affected by the proposed
work. The Corps subsequently requests concurrence from the SHPO (or THPO).
Historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National Register, are
present within the Corps’ permit area; however, the undertaking will have no

Version 5.12.2022 Page 6
Historic properties, or properties eligible for inclusion in the National Register, are
present within the Corps’ permit area; moreover, the undertaking may have an
effect on these historic properties. The Corps subsequently initiates consultation
with the SHPO (or THPO).
The proposed work takes place in an area known to have the potential for the
presence of prehistoric and historic cultural resources; however, the area has not
been formally surveyed for the presence of cultural resources. No sites eligible
for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places are known to be present
in the vicinity of the proposed work. Additional work may be necessary to identify
and assess any historic or prehistoric resources that may be present.
The District Engineer’s final eligibility and effect determination will be based upon
coordination with the SHPO and/or THPO, as appropriate and required, and with full
consideration given to the proposed undertaking’s potential direct and indirect effects on
historic properties within the Corps-indentified permit area.

Evaluation
The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of the probable
impacts including cumulative impacts of the proposed activity on the public interest.
That decision will reflect the national concern for both protection and utilization of
important resources. The benefit which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. All factors
which may be relevant to the proposal will be considered including the cumulative
effects thereof; among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general
environmental concerns, wetlands, historic properties, fish and wildlife values, flood
hazards, flood plain values (in accordance with Executive Order 11988), land use,
navigation, shoreline erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation,
water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs,
considerations of property ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the
people. For activities involving the discharge of dredged or fill materials in waters of the
United States, the evaluation of the impact of the activity on the public interest will
include application of the Environmental Protection Agency’s 404(b)(1) guidelines.
Commenting Information

agencies and officials, including any consolidated State Viewpoint or written position of
the Governor; Indian Tribes and other interested parties in order to consider and
evaluate the impacts of this proposed activity. Any comments received will be
considered by the Corps of Engineers to determine whether to issue, modify, condition,
or deny a permit for this proposal. To make this decision, comments are used to assess
impacts on endangered species, historic properties, water quality, general
environmental effects and the other public interest factors listed above. Comments are
used in the preparation of an Environmental Assessment (EA) and/or an Environmental
Impact Statement (EIS) pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).
Comments are also used to determine the need for a public hearing and to determine
the overall public interest of the proposed activity.
Any person may request, in writing, within the comment period specified in this notice,
that a public hearing be held to consider the application. Requests for public hearings
