4. Project Description and History
4a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application:*
The site is located within a City of Raleigh sewer easement. The gravity sewer pipe is covered in concrete and a nearby streambank is failing which requires maintenance.
4b. Have Corps permits or DWR certifications been obtained for this project (including all prior phases) in the past?*
Yes No Unknown
4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
none (study area in easement)
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
30
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: *
The purpose of this project is to stabilize and repair a streambank which has failed and to remove concrete from an aerial sewer pipe. The project will temporarily impact a total of
approximately 600 square feet of streambank on Toms Creek (Mill Creek) near 3608 Kemble Ridge Drive at 35.913900, -78.515230 decimal degrees.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: *
Work will entail creating a dry work area, establishing a stable toe, constructing a stable bank using coir matting or a combination and establishing a stable segment of stream bed at the
base of the bank. A sewer bypass system will be constructed based on the state of the sewer pipe after concrete removal. The site will be accessed from the existing sanitary sewer
easement to the southwest of the site. The temporary disturbance will occur inside the maintained easement and tree removal will occur outside buffer zones. Erosion control measures
will be installed prior to work.
A "pump around" will be established to create a dry work area. Disturbed areas will be reseeded and mulched when work is complete. It is expected that a rubber tire loader or skid steer
loader and a dump truck will be used to place the boulders, reconstruct the streambank, and stabilize the streambank. Please see the five attached details; "pump around", temporary silt
fence, temporary construction entrance, bank stabilization, and seeding details.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations
