Re: Response to Requests for Additional Information
Wicker Farm
USACE AID: SAW-2022-02049
(Approx. 33.61 acres)
Lee County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Bailey/Mr. Thomas
On behalf of Forge Investment Group, LLC we are providing a response to the Request for Additional
Information (RAI) emails received on September 21, 2022 and October 31, 2022, for an approximately
33.61-acre site located at approximately 125 South Franklin Drive in Sanford, Lee County, North Carolina
(the Site).
The revised Impacts Maps have been attached showing adjustments to Impacts 1, 2 and 3, the removal of
the previous Impacts 4 and 5, temporary seeding/restoration plans, an example of an underdrain design,
and more -detailed depictions of the sanitary sewer easement and retaining walls. The addition of the full
extent of permanent wetland Impact 1 from the dissipation pad, the increase in permanent and temporary
wetland impacts at Impact 2 due to installation of a drainage to maintain hydrologic connection, and the
increase of permanent wetland Impact 3 due to grading have increased permanent wetland impacts from
0.182-acres to 0.190-acres. In addition, temporary wetland impacts have decreased from 0.030-acres to
0.026-acres.
The previous temporary stream Impacts 4 and 5 have been avoided completely and jack and bore will be
used at the sanitary sewer stream crossing. This will ensure no impacts to Stream M. Additionally; all other
impact amounts remain the same as reported in the Pre -Construction Notification (PCN) application dated
09/01 /2022.
Updated ePCN Impact Tables are provided following responses to questions. The comments are outlined
below in italics and are grouped by impact, with USACE comments in blue and DWR comments in green.
Our response is below each comment.
USACE comments
1) Impact 1:
a. The Permanent Wetland impact shading on Sheet CWI-2.1 does not appear to extend to the full
extent of the rip rap dissipation pad with Wetland K. Please make this change on the plans and
ENGINEERING I DESIGN I TECHNOLOGY

ensure that the entirety of this footprint is included within the Dissipation Pad impact calculation,
compensatory mitigation proposal, etc.
The impact maps have been updated to accurately depict and account for the permanent impact due to the
Dissipation Pad. This has increased the permanent impact of the Dissipation Pad from 0.001-acres to
0.002-acres.
b. Based on the information provided, the uppermost extent of Wetland K appears to be a
groundwater seep. In order to continue hydrologic input into the top of this wetland following
construction, and in addition to out -letting the storm water pipe down gradient of Impact 1, could an
underdrain (e.g. French drain, etc.) be installed from the groundwater seep to outlet at the till slope?
If so, please provide this detail in project plans.
This feature corresponds with Wetland A on the Delineation Map and has been referenced accordingly in
the Impact Maps. Feature K is an ephemeral stream within the wetland. A detail sheet has been included
on sheet CWI-2.8 to show the installation of a permanent ditch and stormwater bypass network. This will
be installed early in grading development for Phase 1 of Erosion and Sedimentation Control. Stormwater
bypass into the drain will allow for continuous flow into Wetland A.
Additionally, Sheets CWI-2.1 and CWI-2.9 include a detail for a filter diaphragm proposed to function as an
underdrain, collecting any hydrology from areas immediately upslope of the road.
Therefore, hydrologic input will be maintained to the top of the wetland.
2) Impact 2: although a storm water pipe is shown out -letting down -gradient from road till, it is not clear
that the out-letted water would reach the segment of wetlands directly down -gradient of the
proposed wetland impact. Please specify how the entirety of the remaining portion of Wetland B
would maintain its hydrology following construction;
Impact 2 has been updated to include two drainage pipes to the wetland to ensure that hydrologic
connectivity is maintained following construction. The design was sent to the USACE on November 8, 2022
and Dave Bailey confirmed that the design option chosen for Impact 2 would most likely continue hydrology
to the remainder of the wetland.
The second pipe will consist of a permanent ditch and stormwater bypass network to be installed early in
grading development for Phase I of Erosion and Sedimentation Control. See Sheets CWI-2.2 and CWI-2.7.
3) It appears that proposed Impact 3 is related to a till slope for a storm water pond:
a. Per NWP 29 Reginal Condition C.a., "Discharges in streams and wetlands for stormwater
management facilities are prohibited under this NWP."
Due to discharges being prohibited, we will be requesting use of NWP 18 to authorize the small impacts,
which include 0.008-acres of permanent wetland and 0.001-acres of temporary wetland.
b. Furthermore, it is not clear that this activity is designed to avoid and minimize adverse effects,
both temporary and permanent, to waters of the United States to the maximum extent practicable
at the project site, as required by NWP General Condition 23(a). Specifically, additional measures
such as re -designing the footprint of the pond, steepening slopes (including rock armoring or adding
a retaining wall could all be used to back the fill slope out of the wetland area.
The impact was redesigned to pull the grading back as much as possible while still maintaining the amount
of lots needed for the proposed residential development. Retaining walls were not used since the impact is
adjacent to a pond. If a retaining wall was used, that may weaken the berm and increase the likelihood that
the pond would fail.
c. Placing a till slope at the bank of a bend in an existing stream has frequently been shown to lead
to future maintenance issues, require stream bank stabilization, and cause sediment loading into

the stream. Given these predictable maintenance problems and indirect impacts to aquatic
resources, please re -design this project segment accordingly or provide specific information to
justify that these changes are not practicable (Available and capable of being done after taking into
consideration cost, existing technology, and logistics in light of overall project purposes).
The grading and fill slope has been adjusted to completely avoid impacting the stream and therefore
reducing the likelihood of stream bank failure and decreasing potential indirect impacts to aquatic
resources.
d. The preceding notwithstanding, NWP 18 could potentially be used to authorize small impacts to
waters for storm water management facilities.
We are requesting the use of NWP 18 for Impact 3, which is due to the installation of a stormwater
management facility.
4) Impact 5: similar to item 3)c. above, installing a buried sewer line at the bank of a bend in an existing
stream, unnecessarily risks future sewer line maintenance issues and recurring bank instability and
sediment loading into the stream. Given these predictable maintenance problems and indirect
impacts to aquatic resources, please re -design this segment of the sewer line accordingly (even
small shifts in the alignment away from the stream are beneficial) or provide specific information to
justify that these changes are not practicable.
The sanitary sewer easement has been shifted to completely avoid the impact in the stream bend.
5) Please provide a restoration plan for the temporary impacts to wetland and stream areas, per NWP
29 Reginal Condition B.10 and 11.
A temporary seeding/restoration plan has been included on Sheet CWI-2.10 of the updated impact maps
to ensure the wetlands are restored to prior conditions. Stream impacts have been avoided.
6) Please provide a plan view of the full extent of the proposed sewer line (to its tie-in with existing
infrastructure) overlaid on a delineation of potential waters of the US, as it appear that this sewer
line is necessary for the function of the residential development. This plan is necessary to
accurately evaluate avoidance and minimization measures (per NWP General Condition 23(A) and
(8)) and potential indirect impacts (see NWP General Conditions "District Engineers Decision') for
the cumulative project.
The plan view of the full extent of the proposed sewer line has been added to Sheets CWI-2.4 through CWI-
2.6. The sanitary sewer was shifted slightly to avoid previous Impacts 4 and 5. The impact was avoided
and minimized to the maximum extent possible and does not impact the stream at a bend. The sanitary
sewerwill be installed asjack and bore at Stream M; therefore, no impacts will occur. This design is depicted
on Sheets CWI-2.5 and CWI-2.6.
The plan view has been overlaid on a delineation of the potential waters of the US that was completed by
Timmons Group on 10/06/2022. The overall WTDM has been updated to depict these additional features.
Three Wetland Determination Data Sheets and two NC DWR Stream Identification Forms have been
completed for the proposed sewer line area. Additionally, a photolog has been included with these forms
to assist in the review of the delineation. This information was also sent to the USACE on November 9,
2022.
7) It appears that an Individual 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) is required from the North
Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR) for this project; please note that the Corps cannot
verify the use of any NWP without a valid 401 WQC.
For NCDWR: After review of the submitted PCN) for the above referenced project, and NWP 29
Water Quality General Certification No. 4256, dated 1211812020 (https://saw-

reg.usace.army.mil/NWP2021/NWP29 State WQ C.pdo, it appears an Individual401 Water Quality
Certification (WQC) is required from the NCDWR for the proposed activities. The PCN received by
our office appears to provide the 9 required elements for an individual WQC and constitutes the
Corps initial receipt of the WQC application (note that this may not hold if project plans change
based on the times above). The reasonable period of time (RPOT) for you to act on this WQC
request will begin is 120 calendar days from the date of the complete WQC request. Unless
NCDWR is granted a time review extension, the date upon which a waiver of the WQC will occur if
you do not act on the certification is 1213012022.
It has been noted that an Individual 401 WQC will be required for this proposed project.
8) Please note that responses to the questions above may prompt additional information requests to
allow full evaluation of the proposed project.
This has been noted.
)WR comments
DWR concurs with the questions raised by the USA CE. Please provide the Division a copy of your
response to the September 21, 2022 email from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requesting
additional information. [15A NCAC 02H .0502(c)].
The responses to the questions raised by the USACE are located above.
2. Regarding sections F.2 & F.3, please provide more information about your statement of, "this
project is exempt from having a SWMP. Dry ponds have been designed....". [15A NCAC 02H
. 0502(c)].
There are no state or local jurisdiction requirements for this location. However, the City of Sanford is
reviewing the project for constructability and reduce of peak flow.
3. Section 4. a regarding sewage disposal states that DWR is not needed for this project. Since there
are impacts for sanitary sewer construction, can you please provide more information about where
waste generated by this development will be treated? (i.e. Can you provide the sewer extension
permit number for this project or more info on why the question was answered "no"?). [15A NCA C
02H .0502(c)].
Please see the attached updated Impact Maps for the sewer extension references on Sheets CWI-2.4
through CWI-2.6. Sewage disposal is required for this project, and it has been obtained through DEQ to the
City of Sanford. This is Permit No. WQ0043749, a Wastewater Collection System Extension Permit. The
proposed off -site sewer route will connect to existing public sewer.

2h. Comments:
Wetland Impacts 1 and 2 are both due to proposed roadway fill and temporary construction impacts.
Wetland Impact 3 is due to grading for a stormwater control measure (SCM) and temporary construction
impacts.
Wetland Impact 1 includes the permanent installation of a 24" reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) culvert with
a dissipation pad, which will keep the hydrologic connection of the wetland underneath the proposed road.
The dissipation pad overlaps with the wetland in order to prevent erosion and ensure long term stability.
This road is necessary to connect the site to Wicker Street, allowing for one of two points of site access for
general site access needs. The area of permanent wetland impact is located in a non -forested, emergent
vegetation wetland. Additionally, a stormwater drainage pipe will be installed in uplands, upslope of the
wetland, and a filter diaphragm underdrain is proposed to ensure that hydrologic flow will reach Wetland A.
Wetland Impact 1 also includes a temporary 5' construction buffer needed to complete the roadway fill.
Wetland Impact 2 is due to the installation of a roadway and temporary construction associated with this
installation. Wetland Impact 2 consists of both permanent and temporary impacts. This road is necessary
to provide connections throughout the proposed residential development and cannot be shifted west, due
to the potential that more wetlands would be impacted in the northern portion of the Site with this change.
The road was designed to avoid the maximum amount of wetland possible while also keeping the project
viable and complying with road design requirements. Additionally, two stormwater drainage pipes will be
installed in uplands, upslope of the wetland, to ensure that hydrologic flow from stormwater runoff will reach
Wetland B.
Wetland Impact 3 includes permanent impacts due to grading and temporary impacts from a 5' construction
buffer associated with the installation of an SCM. This SCM is necessary to receive and filter drainage from
the rest of the site.
All impacts have been designed to avoid and minimize to the maximum extent practicable and therefore
only include temporary impacts.
Please review the updated Impact Maps and contact Kate Hefner at [phone] or

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 impacts for which you are
requesting compensatory mitigation credit are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation
required and assigned to DMS for this impact is determined by permitting agencies and may exceed the
impact amounts shown below.

Remarks:
This sampling point was taken upslope of a stream feature. According to the Antecedent Precipidation Tool, at the time of inspection, conditions on
site were normal, under a moderate drought. The area is mapped as Water on the NRCS map and the LiDAR depicts a bowl shaped area where this
data was taken. The area had various drainages throughout, but overall the soils did not pass as hydric. Looking at Google Earth Aerial Imagery, the
area was open water from 1964 to 1983. The area has not been inundated in approximately 39 years.
