Comment 4: Stub Roads: DWQ has concerns regarding cumulative impacts. Please explain the two stubbed out roads located on the eastern property boundary. The proposed thoroughfare road seems to have riparian buffer and stream impacts that are not shown on this application. Response 4: As discussed in our September 28`h 2007 meeting, the stub road in the northeast quadrant of the project is required by Johnston County for an emergency exit to the adjacent Southwick Subdivision, with no other stream and/or wetland crossings needed. The thoroughfare road is an existing farm road and dedicated easement to the land-locked property to the east, and must be kept open to access the adjacent parcels. As discussed, the overall impact map has been revised to depict the actual location of the stream and stream buffer, which is located downstream of any impacts from the roadway. Consideration of this response is greatly appreciated. If you should have any questions or require additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me at (919) 361-5000.

Enclosed Vicinity map -Please clearly mark the location and approximate boundaries of the property and project on the map. Please indicate north and scale. Please include applicable road names or State Road numbers. See Overall Site Plan /USGS quad Enclosed .-- ^ The Site Plan -The most critical map to be provided is the site plan. You must provide full sized plans. The following is the minimum list of plans that are typically needed. ^~'Pre-construction/Pre-existing conditions -This sheet must be scaled and include all jurisdictional and non jurisdictional wetland, stream, water features, State regulated buffers, topographic contours with elevations, approximate extent and nature of forest, field, landscaping, or other cover. Any existing structures and impervious area must be shown. Existing utility lines and easements must be shown. Existing roads, culverts, and other pertinent features must be shown. North arrow and the scale must be shown. Please note that the impact boundaries on the maps should correspond to the flagged impact boundaries in the field. Ortho Photo with Project Boundary Enclosed ^~~ Proposed conditions -These sheets must be scaled and show all existing jurisdictional and non jurisdictional wetland, stream, water features, and State regulated buffers (delineated into Zone 1 and Zone 2) must be underlain on the site plan(s). The plans must show all built-out structures and impervious cover. The plans must include the final grading contours with elevations. The plans must indicate all utilities and easements. It is likely that several versions of the final built- out site plans will be necessary. See Overall Site Plan I Impact Maps Enclosed ^ Drainage Plans -Final drainage plans must be included. The plans should include the locations and pertinent elevations and sizes of the collection system and drainage ways. All inlets and outlets must also be shown with pertinent elevations. Scaled stormwater BMPs must also be indicated as required by DWQ rules and policies. In certain cases, final stormwater management plans must also be provided, but that will be addressed later in this document. 4 Project less than 24% impervious /Level Spreader details and drainage area maps Enclosed ~' Plats -The plans must show the location and layout of all sub-divided parcels with lot identifications. Platted parcels must be developable without further impacts to jurisdictional and non-jurisdictional wetlands, streams, water features, and State regulated buffers. See Overall Site Plan Enclosed ^~ Proposed Impacts -All impacts to jurisdictional and non-jurisdictional wetland, stream, water features, and State regulated buffers must be shown and labeled on the site plans. All excavation, fill, flooding, stabilization, and other impacts that will be conducted in or near jurisdictional and non jurisdictional wetland, stream, water features, and State regulated buffers must be indicated. Impact Maps Enclosed Wetland Impacts (on the site plan): None Proposed C3~ Precise grading and final elevation contours must be provided. Existing vegetation and any clearing must be specified. All subsurface utility lines must indicate the location of anti-seep collars. Construction detail for anti-seep collars must be provided. ^~ Roadway or other crossings of riparian wetlands may require floodway culverts to maintain existing hydrological conditions. ~ When surface drainage features or groundwater recharge areas that feed or would reasonably feed wetlands that are not to be filled are made impervious, it may be necessary to direct some stormwater runoff to those areas in order to maintain hydrology. You must identify these areas and address them. Supporting explanations and discharge information must be provided to show that the wetland would not be eroded or receive too much or too little hydrology. In many cases this could help satisfy part of a stormwater management plan. ~ Flooding ^~ Draining Stream Impacts: 212 linear feet of intermittent stream impacts proposed i~ Stream impacts must be clearly shown on the plans. The centerline as well as the banks of the stream must be surveyed or located by GPS for the portion of the stream to be impacted. Culverting: J~ The inlet and the outlet of the culvert should be aligned with the stream as much as possible. Inlet and outlet elevations and streambed elevations should be indicated. C3~ Any widening of the stream must be shown with elevations. ^~ The extent of and plan details for all dissipation or grade control devices should be shown with pertinent elevations. 5 C~- For shorter culvert sections, such as for road crossings, a longitudinal cross section that shows the stream bed invert at the inlet and outlet, the existing stream bank elevations and the invert of the inlet and outlet of the pipe(s) must be provided. ^ For shorter culvert sections, such as for road crossings, a vertical cross section must be provided that shows the stream cross section at the inlet and outlet overlain with the culvert and fill cross section. For bottomless culverts or other spans, a vertical cross section should be provided that shows the minimum distance from each span to each stream bank, the stream cross section, the height of the span above the stream and the minimum distance from the edge of each footer to each stream bank. 'D' For bottomless culverts or other spans, a plan view must be provided that shows the location of the spans and the stream banks. [~ For longer culverts or culverts that will pass beneath substantial impervious cover, it will be necessary to provide adequate plan detail to show that discharge velocity/energy will be adequately dissipated. Cross section details must be provided showing the provisions for aquatic life passage. Aquatic life passage through culverts is typically achieved by placing the invert of the culvert below the existing bed of the stream per the USACE or North Carolina Wildlife Resource Commission guidelines. Other methods such as baffles may also be used. Please be aware that such placement may require the use of grade/velocity control measures up or down stream of culverts on steeper streams to prevent head-cuts or streambed erosion. The culvert placement relative to the streambed can be indicated on the longitudinal profile. Grade and velocity control measures must be indicated on the plan view and typical designs should be provided. ^~ Multiple culverts, wide culverts or sectioned box culverts typically require the use of sills, off-setting or other means to match the cross section of the existing stream (in order to maintain stream stability and provide aquatic life passage). A vertical cross section of the culverts should be shown overlain with the up and downstream stream cross section / including the stream flood-prone area. t~ Impacts associated with dam construction must indicate and enumerate all fill associated with the dam footprint, spillway and any bank stream bank stabilization. The length of stream impounded must also be indicated and enumerated. Stream Relocations: None Proposed C~ Stream relocations must be conducted as specified in General Certification numbers 3402 and 3404 (available on the Wetlands Unit web site). Stream relocation plans must include: ~ Morphological measurements (see Appendix B of the Internal Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina available on the Wetlands Unit web site) -not all of the measurements are applicable in every instance. C3~ Typical stream cross sections - Typically, a riffle cross section and a pool cross section that includes the entire flood prone area. The bankfull and flood prone area elevations should be indicated. Similarly, a riffle cross section of the reference stream(s) should be provided. Plan view -Provide scaled plans that show the location of the proposed (preferably with stationing) and the existing stream. In most instances, the bankfull contours and flood 6 prone area contours, in stream structures, bank revetments/stabilization, channel plugs, planting plan, vegetation conditions, stormwater outlets, grade controls, bridges, culverts, sewer lines, roads, fencing, and easement lines should also be provided. )~ Longitudinal Stream Profile - A scaled profile that indicates the thalweg, bankfull, and top of bank elevations should be provided for the design and reference streams. In many cases, it will also be necessary to show the existing land elevations for the design stream. ,~ Planting Plan - A planting and/or vegetation management plan should also be provided that makes use of appropriate native vegetation. The plan should indicate the extent, density, and species of plants to be provided. In-stream structure, bank revetment/stabilization, and stormwater outlet typicals - Detailed, typical plans should be provided for all in stream structures, bank revetments or stabilization, an stormwa er ou a s. a ypica s sou inc u e ma ena s an specifications as well as relative lengths, positions, and angles. Sediment transport analysis - A sediment transport analysis should be provided based on the current, relevant, accepted practices. The sediment transport analysis should be relevant to the streambed load type and should predict bed load transport equilibrium. ~ Permanent conservation easement or similar means of protection must also be provided.

SECTION IV -PRIOR PROJECT HISTORY 'C] Please include copies of all 401 Water Quality Certifications, Isolated Wetland Permits, Buffer Approvals, USACE Permits, CAMA Permits for the site as well as a copy of the final approved, site plan. Provided in PCN SECTION V -FUTURE PROJECT PLANS !~ For projects utilizing the express review process, all impacts both present and potential uture must a in icate or ins ance, a oca ion or con igura ion o platted lots sometimes suggests that future impacts will be necessary to build, access, or otherwise develop such lots. Failure to account for such potential impacts could delay or disqualify a project from the rapid review process. If you believe that the lot can be developed without impacts, but you anticipate that your assertion may be questioned, it is recommended that you provide a potential building foot print and/or grading plan to show that future impacts could be avoided. None anticipated at this time. SECTION VI -PROPOSED IMPACTS TO WATER OF THE US 1. It is recommended that the individual impacts be described if there are special things to note about the impacts. Typically the most important thing is to have detailed accurate site plans as described above. Please make sure they are clearly labeled. Please include all proposed temporary impacts. ^r Also, a current, signed delineation map from the USACE should be provided (if available) and a map locating the stream origins signed by the appropriate DWQ Staff must be provided if applicable. Wetlands and Streams have been verified but there is no signed wetland map. ~1 2. Each impact to a wetland must be clearly labeled and identified on the site plan. The type of impact must be clearly stated. If the impact is temporary, a specific plan must be described or shown as to how the wetland will be restored. Keep in mind that the USACE delineates some features as wetlands that DWQ calls streams. Please list any impacts in this table that DWQ would identify as a stream. If there is any doubt, it is recommended that the impacts be listed as streams. Please follow current DWQ policy with respect to whether a stream is perennial or not. It is recommended that you assume that a stream is perennial (unless you are positive that it is not) so if mitigation is required then the appropriate amount of mitigation would be anticipated or requested from the EEP or private bank. If the EEP or private bank has pre- approved too short of an amount of stream or if inadequate mitigation is proposed, then that situation will result in delays. .~1~ 3. Sometimes it is difficult to determine whether a feature is a modified natural channel or a ditch, especially in the eastern part of the State. Soils, drainage features, topography, macroinvertebrates, and similar factors, all are important for making that determination. ^ 4. Other items to address not specifically requested in the application include downstream sediment starvation, thermal pollution, low flow releases from dams, and aquatic life passage. Other important considerations are buffer reestablishment or 8 mitigation around ponds on buffered streams. The site plan should include the precise elevation contour of the normal pool as well as the dam footprint. Mitigation is required for wetland flooding of an acre or greater and for stream fill (if over the 150 foot threshold) under the dam footprint and any outlet stabilization. SECTION VII -AVOIDANCE AND MINIMIZATION Avoidance and minimization are critical aspects of an application particularly if you desire the application to be processed expeditiously. The following is a checklist of avoidance and minimization questions that DWQ Staff often look for in applications. Are there any stream crossings at angles less than 75° or greater than 105°? No ^~ Are there any stream crossings that cross two streams above or at the confluence of those streams . No, the spine road alignment was shifted during the July 16th site visit with DWQ staff to avoid this scenario. Are there any stream, wetland, water, and/or buffer impacts other than perpendicular road crossing near the edges of the property? No ^~ Can the stream be relocated as a natural channel design as opposed to culverted or otherwise filled? No, due to the linear nature of the spine road Is any single stream crossed more than once? No Can property access routes be moved or reduced to avoid stream, wetland, water, and buffer impacts? No Can a building, parking lot, etc. be realigned to avoid impacts? No B- Can the site layout be reconfigured to avoid impacts? No ~ Can headwalls or steeper side slopes be used to avoid/minimize impacts? Steeper slopes are being used at stream impact # 3. Can a retaining wall be used to avoid/minimize impacts? Retaining walls will be used where needed. ~ Can cul de sacs be used in place of a crossing? Cul de sacs were utilized throughout the project to avoid further stream impacts. [7~Can lots be reshaped or have shared driveways to avoid impacts? Lots have been re-shaped and alignments shifted to avoid further stream impacts. If based solely on the practicable physical possibility, the answer is "yes" to any of the above questions then you must have to provide substantial and convincing justification as to why the impacts are necessary. If the impacts are required by a local government or other agency, the claim must be supported with appropriate written documentation from the local government or other agency. Most projects typically involve the need to justify avoidance and minimization. If this information is not readily available, then the express review process may not be the appropriate venue to use. Providing alternative plans (such as plans that avoid the impact, minimize the impact and the preferred plan, similar to those used in environmental assessments) and explanations as to why the preferred plan is needed and why the alternative plans won't work are many times helpful in the no practical alternatives review. SECTION VIII -MITIGATION Mitigation for the Express Review Program, final mitigation plans must be presented up front. The final plans (except for plans that propose payment into the Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP), Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund, private mitigation banks, or similar banking instruments) must contain detailed. plans, specifications, calculations and other supporting data that show that the appropriate mitigation will be achieved at the ratios required. The design plans must be developed to at least the "90%" level. Monitoring plans must be final and specific. Any means of permanent protection, such as a permanent conservation easement must be provided. If you elect to use the EEP or a private mitigation bank, it is recommended that you request the maximum possible mitigation amount that DWQ may require so that you will not have to get further approval from them on short notice. The EEP and private banks are not part of the expedited review process and cannot be expected to meet any such deadlines. There will be no conditional expedited approva s t a require ina p ans a a a er a e. is no recommen e innovative mitigation techniques or greater than 10% preservation be requested as part of an expedited process. Mitigation will be provided, see narrative enclosed. SECTION IX If your project requires the. preparation of an environmental document under NEPA or SEPA and an approval letter has not been issued by the State Clearinghouse, then you cannot apply under the expedited review process. It is your responsibility to find out if such documentation is required. None required SECTION X There are many aspects of the Buffer Rules that must be addressed in every application, if applicable. The first and most important thing to keep in mind is that allowable activities that require written Approval from DWQ triggers a review of the entire project for compliance with the Buffer Rules. Diffuse Flow 8~ Stormwater Management: The most common issues that arise involve the requirement for diffuse flow of stormwater through riparian buffers. Basically one of three things must be indicated in regards to all "new" stormwater that is collected and subsequently discharged. First, provisions for diffuse flow through the protected buffer must be made. This usually involves the use of level spreading devices designed to the latest DWQ guidance on level spreader design, which is available on our web site. Please keep in mind that it does not matter how far a discharge point is from a buffer. The stormwater must be flowing in a diffuse manner at whatever point it eventually reaches the buffer. If the stormwater will not be flowing in a diffuse manner through the protected buffer at the point it reaches the buffer, then one of the following options may be allowed: Grassed swales and (3) level spreaders are provided in Phases 1 and 2, and were approved through Johnston County. Mr. Breland with Dalton Engineering has met with DWQ staff to discuss Phase 3 diffuse flow devices, and will be designing these mechanisms in accordance with the new BMP manual. ^~ You may provide a nitrogen removing measure such as a forested filter strip, grassed swale, stormwater wetland, etc. The measure employed should be designed according to the NC DENR Stormwater Best Management Practices Manual or other DWQ Guidance available at http: //h2o.ehnr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/mitresto.html. After the nitrogen is treated, the stormwater can be directly conveyed through the buffer with written DWQ approval. Natural draws with grassed swales will be utilized as conveyances throughout the site. 10 [y You may discharge the stormwater to an existing man-made conveyance that currently conveys stormwater through the protected buffer (assuming the conveyance was not constructed in violation of the Rules) as long as that conveyance does not need to be altered to convey the flow. Please remember that there are no other choices. The following checklist is intended to help insure that your application will not be deemed incomplete as a result of improper stormwater design. Natural draws with grassed swales will be utilized as conveyances throughout the site. stormwater Management (for Buffer Rules compliance only -Also, see Section XI): © All stormwater out-falls must be clearly shown and labeled on the site plan for projects in Buffered watersheds. List each out-fall as labeled: The natural draws /grassed swales are a e e as exis ma c anne s nomenclature that Johnston County Erosion Control prefers on drawings and applications. Option 1: Level spreading devices designed to the latest DWQ Guidance, and devices that merely control velocity but do not provide diffuse flow such as rip rap dissipators are not proposed. List each of these out-falls as labeled on the site plan and provide a DWQ worksheet available at http://h2o.ehnr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/mitresto.html: Level spreaders 1-15 are labeed on the overall site plan and detail sheets are provided. Option 2: Nitrogen removing measures designed to DWQ Standards are proposed for discharges for which diffuse flow through a protected Buffer cannot be met. List each of these out-falls as labeled on the site plan and provide a DWQ worksheet available at http://h2o.ehnr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/mitresto.html: Grassed swales are proposed in Phase 1 and 2. Bio-retention will be utilized in Phase 3. [J~ Option 3: The stormwater will be discharged to an existing man-made (not including modified natural channels) conveyance that carries the stormwater through the Buffer. The conveyance was not constructed in violation of the Buffer Rules. List each out-fall as labeled: ~ All stormwater out-fall must meet one of the options above. (Note: if you cannot check this box your application will likely not be accepted into the express review process.) Site Plans: ^- All applications on properties with DWQ protected buffers must clearly depict the buffers and any impacts to the buffers on the site plans. The impact maps should clearly depict both zones of the protected buffers and the proposed impact areas (provided in square feet). See Site Plan and Impact Maps Enclosed Surtace Water 8~ Buffer Delineations: qi Any surface waters subject to DWQ protected buffers must be field located and accurately depicted on the site plans and impact maps. The width, dimensions and pattern of the surface water must be delineated. The surface water location must not be taken simply from a USGS map, soil survey or local municipality's map. The buffers must be measured from the surface water as required within the applicable buffer protection rule (e.g., all buffers along streams subject to the Neuse and Tar-Pamlico Buffer Rules must be measured from the "top-of-bank" of the stream and not the centerline of the stream). All streams must be surveyed or located by GPS and shown precisely on the site plans. 11 Impact Table: q/ Please provide additional impact tables that clearly state the area of impact for each corresponding impact site. See Impact Maps Enclosed Variances: Projects that require a Major and/or "General" Variance will not be eligible for the use of the Express Review Program (with the exception of the Coastal General "Major" Variance. None required Mitigation: s oppose o app is i plans must be presented up front (see requirements for Section VIII above). The mitigation plans must comply with the applicable buffer mitigation rule. Stream buffer mitigation is not required for the proposed impacts. SECTION XI - STORMWATER Please provide the following information in regards to potential stormwater requirements: ]~ The total acreage of the site. 303 (acres) The total built-out impervious acreage Phase 1: 11.84-acres ~ 14% impervious Phase 2: 11.17-acres ~ 12% impervious Phase 3: 15% or less impervious ~ The total area that will be disturbed ~ 150-acres including temporary and permanent disturbance ~ If the total area exceeds 20% imperviousness, the development on the site is uniform in density, and you claim that the total impervious area is less than 30%, you must provide a complete, detailed breakdown of the assumed built-out conditions. The breakdown must be detailed enough to show that all potential impervious areas are accounted for. The project will be 15% impervious or less. Cam- If there are concentrated areas of development such as multi-family, commercial, cluster, club houses, etc. that exceed 30% imperviousness and the total imperviousness for the site does not exceed 30%, a stormwater management plan will likely be required for those areas that exceed 30% imperviousness. ~-- stormwater management plans must be complete with a final design and an executed Operation and Maintenance Agreement. There will be no conditional stormwater approvals for the express review process that allow for approval of the final plans at a later date. Worksheets must be provided that are available at http://h2o.ehnr.state. nc.us/ncwetlands/mitresto. html. Operation and Maintenance Agreements are Executed and were submitted. SECTION XII -SEWAGE DISPOSAL O~ Response must be clear and detailed. Any disposal method that suggests further impacts may be required other than those shown must be clearly addressed on the site plans. On-site septic systems will be utilized. 12 SECTION XIII t~ Answering yes to either of these responses automatically precludes you from the express review process. SECTION XIV -SIGNATURE ~~The name, position and/or title of the applicant must be in type or long hand script here with the signature. It should be the same person as described in Part II. If you have any questions about these requirements, please email the Express Review Program at 401 express@ncmail.net and include your question and phone number and the appropriate staff will respond as soon as possible.

Each impact must be listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts, Updated 11 / l /2005 Page 7 of 13 permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate. Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet. 12. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: The project has proposed permanent stream impacts totaling 215 linear feet for construction of the spine road to access Phases 2 and 3. The stream impacts are associated with the re-alignment and expansion of an existing farm road in the southeastern quadrant of the project to bring it up to DOT standards, and one new road to access Phase 3 (,see stream impact sheets 1-3). The spine road is being constructed to access Phase 3 and to allow the adjacent property owner to access their land- lockedparcel. 1. Individually list wetland impacts.

Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. The entire project was desired to avoid and minimize impacts to wetlands streams and riparian buffer areas while utilizing the remaining areas outside of these areas for development. ROADS: There is a network of roads to access the 303-acre parcel, There are no at inimize stormwater run flow VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at http://h2o. enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmg~de.html. 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a Updated 11/1/2005 Page 10 of 13 description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. Three existing culverts that currently_impact 104 linear feet of stream and were improperly installed will be removed from within the site (see Mitigation Exhibit and Stream Forms for day-lighted and impacted streams). Culvert 1, to be removed is in a perennial stream that flows directly to the Neuse River. Culverts 2 and 3, to be removed are in intermittent streams and upstream of culvert 1 along the existin f~ arm path. As well, all remaining stream channels on-site are to be preserved with a 50' riparian buffer via Deed Restrictions, totaling 10 031 linear feet. Removing three improperly installed culverts, in combination with preserving the remaining streams on-site, completes the compensatory mitigation ~ackage• 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form.

Yes ® No ^ 2. If "yes", identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer multipliers. Zone* Impact Multiplier Required (acres) Miti ation 1 0.19 3 (2 for N/A + 0.03 (bioretetion) Catawba) 2 0.07 1.5 N/A + 0.005 (bioretention) Total 0.295 (acre) * Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from the top of the near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1. If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation of Property, Riparian Buffer Restoration /Enhancement, or Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0244, or .0260. XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ) Describe impervious acreage (existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site. Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands downstream from the property. If percent impervious surface exceeds 20%, please provide calculations demonstrating total proposed impervious level. The entire subdivision is less than 15% impervious, with 0.75-acre to 3- acre sin;;le-family home lots. Johnston County has abaroved the Stormwater Management Plan for phases 1 and 2 of the Porto Fino subdivision (Approval Letters Attached .All designated drainage runoff from the streets sheet-flow into pre-development draws. The only Qradin;; needed is for the access roads. There is no curb and gutter along the roads within the subdivision. The only curb and gutter will be at the entrance near the ;?ate house and horse pasture. All drainage easements will be natural grass and forested swales. There are 3 level-spreaders in phase 1 and 2 at the end of their respective drainage easements (S. Sanderson En ing Bering). There are also 12 level-spreader associated with Phase 3, four at each of the stream crossings on Phase 3 to catch all run-off before it reaches the streams (J Dalton En ing Bering). Stormwater run-off calculations are included for all three phases. All have signed and notarized operation and maintenancel. Updated I l/1/2005 Page 12 of 13 XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ) Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility. On-site septic systems XIII. Violations (required by DWQ) Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules? Yes ^ No Is this an after-the-fact permit application? Yes ^ No XIV. Cumulative Impacts (required by DWQ) Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in additional development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality? Yes ^ No If yes, please submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with the most recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality policy posted on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. If no, please provide a short narrative description: No, this residential community will be servicing the need for housing in northwestern Johnston County. The proposed development is located in the vicinity of other residential housin ig n the area. These residences are anticipated to be serviced b n~y, existing Clayton and Ralei h XV. Other Circumstances (Optional): It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).

McAdams Company, Inc. 2905 Meridian Parkway Durham, NC 27713 Subject: Portofino Subdivision Phases 1 & 2 Dear Mr. Fates: Per our meeting of last week, I have enclosed 5 copies of the requested plan sheet showing Level Spreaders ] 3, 14, and 15 in Portofino Phases 1 & 2. These level spreaders were approved in 2006 by Johnston County and by NCDI~NR-DLQ. Also, below are responses to DWQ's specific requests in their letter dated September 1$, 2007. 2g. Five copies of the requested 1:5.0 drawing showing level spreaders 13, 14 & 15 are attached. 2h. The construction details and notes are on the plan. 3a. There is not one (1}copy of the approved Johnston County Stormwater Management Plan for the entir4 project. Johnston County approves projects on a phase by phase basis. I have attached copies of the approved Stormwater Management Plan Approvals for both sections along with subsequent revisions for Phase l . 3b. Below are the written responses regarding how the stipulations in the Johnston County Stormwater Management Approval have been or will be addressed. Phase 1 1. Johnston County Utilities must sign off on the Final Plat before recording. Johnston County inspected the site to see if they are satisfied with the runoff being directed into existing channels. `T'his inspection has taken place, no changes were requested, the Final Plat was signed by Mr. Timothy G. Broome, P. E. on August 9, 2007 and the Final Plat was recorded on August 14, 2007. 2. This note was not required by Johnston County for recording the Final Plat. We drew the 100 year flood plain line on the plat instead. 3. Instead of showing the information in the restrictive covenants, a note was placed on the Final Plat stating that the impervious surface for each lot in Phase 1 cannot exceed 4492 sf. 4. The ~•estrictive covenants are not recorded yet. This note will be placed in them.

Engineering and Land Planning 5. The Final Plat was recorded before all of the utilities were completed. A Performance and Indemnity Bond is in place with Johnston County to insure that all of the stormwater facilities are constructed in accordance with the approved stormwater management plan. The engineer's certification will be sent after the ditch channel linings are installed. This will take place after all utilities (i.e. Progress Energy, Embarq, NCNG, and TWC) are completed. 6. Drainage easements, riparian buffers, jurisdictional wetlands, and flood hazard areas are on the Final Plat. 1. The additional $30 fee was paid. 2. The existing draws will be field surveyed and a drainage easement will be shown on the Final Plat for Phase 2 when recorded. 3. Johnston County Utilities will make an inspection before the Final Plat is recorded. 4. Johnston County Utilities will make an inspection before the Final Plat is recorded. 5. `Phis note or the 100 year flood plain will be shown on the Final Plat. 6. The NCDENR-LQ Sedimentation and Erosion Control approval has been forwarded to Johnston County Utilities. 7. The restrictive covenants will be provided when recorded. 8. This note will be included in the restrictive covenants. 9. The engineer's certification will be provided before the plat is recorded. 10. All drainage easements, riparian buffers, jurisdictional wetlands, and flood hazard areas will be shown on the final Plat. if I can provide any additional information, please advise.

MAINTENANCE OF BIORETENTIONAREA EMBANKMENTS A. Vegetation The primary vegetative ground cover for all berm/embankments is to be tall fescue. Proper maintenance of this cover will serve to prevent erosion while providing optimal access for inspection as well as preventing excessive sediment from entering the facility. Fertilization of this vegetation should be performed bi-annually in October and April. Woody vegetation and trees should not be allowed to propagate on the dam embankments or top of dam. Trees and brush, i esire ,are accepta eon ioretention area em ents of er than the dam. Inspection of embankment vegetation condition should be performed monthly or after every major rainfall event. Seeding: Seeding should be accomplished by the use of a Spiker and large tractor aerifier to ensure proper seed and soil contact along the top of banks. Reseeding may be necessary in instances where initial seeding failed or existing areas have been compromised. The seeding schedules included in this report should be followed for any necessary reseeding. 2. Mowing: All vegetative cover should be maintained below 8" in height. Due to the slope of the embankments, string trimmers (no mechanical mowers) must be utilized for mowing turf. Mowing and maintenance should be performed once a month to keep the maximum grass height below 8 inches and to maintain appropriate turf cover and health of turf. B. Erosion Erosion is initiated when soil cover is insufficient and/or concentration of runoff destabilizes vegetation. Runoff then tends to concentrate into channel flow, and soils tend to become entrained in the water and be transported downstream. Unsuitable fill material, inadequate compaction, and/or poor stabilization of vegetation can accelerate the erosion process. This has a negative environmental impact on downstream features, and has the potential to undermine the stability of the bioretention facilities. Erosion can be minimized with the proper care of vegetation and the use of appropriate methods to repair eroded areas and prevent recurrences of eroded areas. Appropriately compacted soil meeting the berm design requirements will be placed in any gullies or rills, and then reseeded as described above. Re-occurrence of erosive problems should be addressed with appropriate geotextile fabrics that are installed according to manufacturers instructions and per an engineer's recommendation. Uneven surfaces on the crest of the berm may lead to the formation of rills and/or gullies. It is possible to eliminate this problem by properly filling any depressed areas such that the entire top of berm is flat and level. Addition of fill to the top of berm should be completed by first preparing the existing soil such that a distinct boundary layer does not form beneath existing soil and newly placed soil. New fill should meet all soil requirements (as to material, placement, and compaction) as stated on the original design documents for this structure. Inspection for erosion should be performed monthly or after every major rainfall event. 1. Abutment (or toe) areas: The location where the fill of the berm contacts the existing ground is the abutment (or toe). Erosive channels have a tendency to form in these areas. Appropriate geotextile fabrics, as mentioned above, may be necessary to prevent or stop this form of erosion from occurring. An engineer is required if erosion in this area is significant. C. Seepage 1. Detection: Soft wet areas and flowing springs are an indication of seepage. Early indicators of seepage include vegetation which is more robust than surrounding vegetation. Vegetation normally associated with wPtlanrl arPac cn~h ac catta;lc fPrncrreeds and messes ma; also indicate the initiation of seepage. The previously described abutment (or toe) area is a common location for seepage to occur. Another common location for seepage problems is the area where the outlet structure exits the berm section. This is especially true in cases where the soil around the barrel is not compacted properly. Another problem related to seepage may be indicated by the occurrence of `boils' below the abutment of the dam. These boils are springs that tend to deposit soils. Locating the occurrence of any boils should be included in the bi-annual inspection of the facility. `Boils' are a possible indication of piping and could lead to berm failure. Piping occurs when a void space is formed within the interior of the berm embankment. These void spaces tend to be preferred paths for water to travel, which will erode the interior of the berm and lead to failure. D. Cracks, Slides, Sloughing and Settlement Cracks: Large, well-defined cracks of greater than 1/a" width indicate the potential for serious problems and the inspector of the facility should be alert for the their presence. Cracks in the berm generally follow one of two patterns: • Transverse cracks appear perpendicular to the length of the berm and may be caused by differential settlement. Transverse cracks increase the likelihood of the formation of piping and seepage. Longitudinal cracks appear horizontally along the berm and could serve as warnings to a future slide event. Longitudinal cracks in newly constructed berms may be an indication of poor compaction techniques and poor foundation preparation. 2. Slides: Slides and slumps have the potential to critically undermine the integrity of the berm. Arch-shaped cracks that expose soil indicate the initiation of slides. Detection of slides by inspectors should be addressed in a timely manner and a geotechnical engineer should be contacted for consultation. Settlement: Settlement of the soil in the berm reduces freeboard in large storm events and may even lead to overtopping. Differential settlement of the berm can also lead to the concentration of runoff and therefore erosion as mentioned above. For this reason the berm should be maintained uniformly to its original design elevation. Greater than six inches of settlement may be indicative of significant issues within the berm foundation and could lead to catastrophic failure. Indications of this degree of settlement necessitate inspection by a geotechnical engineer. 4. Inspections for cracks, slides, sloughing, and settlement should performed biannually. Actions to take if any of the above is detected: An«_~~Tnf thp~rnhlamc mrntinnarl ahoVg re~l~}re that a~eOtechn}cal gr civil engineer be contacted, and that corrective action be taken. E. Rodent Control Certain rodents including muskrats, groundhogs and beavers tend to favor man-made earthen embankments as burrows. Evidence of the presence of such burrows requires the removal of the rodent and repair of any damage created by the presence of the rodent. 77. SEDIMENT MONITORING A. Bioretention Area Accumulation of sediment within the bioretention area should be kept to a minimum by stabilization of the bioretention drainage area and proper prevention of erosion. Excess sediment accumulation within the bioretention area will cause suffocation of the vegetation, thus crippling the water quality functions of the bioretention area. Inspection for sediment deposition should be performed biannually. 1. Check the depth at various points within the bioretention area, especially in the upland areas around the inlet to the bioretention area. Accumulated sediment will be removed semiannually or when the depth reaches 1 inch or more. 2. Removed sediment shall be disposed of in an appropriate manner and shall be handled in a manner that will not adversely impact water quality (i.e. stockpiling near the pond or streams). B. Principal Spillway Systems 1. Remove accumulated sediment from the bottoms of the outlet structures. The principal spillway systems should be inspected for sediment accumulation monthly or after every major rainfall event. C. Storm Drainage System 1. The upstream storm drainage system should be maintained along with the bioretention area. Trash from the site has a tendency to be washed into the storm drainage system and become lodged in the catch basins or pipes. The catch basins and pipes should be cleaned of debris at the time that maintenance is performed on the stormwater maintenance facilities. Sediment may accumulate in portions of the storm drainage system where slopes are relatively flat. This sediment may be washed out of the system, or flushed with a garden hose. Sediment should only be flushed in this manner when it is visible in the upstream storm drainage pipes with the frequency of flushing. varying from every six months to every two or three years. Steps should be taken to trap this "flushed" sediment at the forebay to the bioretention area to prevent it from being deposited within the bioretention area. III. MAINTENANCE OF OUTLET STRUCTURES The bioretention area is designed to pass water quality storms through an underdrain system and larger storm events through a principal spillway drop inlet. It is of vital importance that these outlet structures remain unblocked so that the hydraulic functionality of the stormwater management facilities aze not compromised. The outlet structure systems should be inspected to ensure that they are functioning properly. A. Bioretention Underdrain System The underdrain system for the bioretention area consists of 8-inch diameter perforated PVC (schedule 40) pipes. These underdrain pipes connect to the concrete principal spillway drop inlet. Tied to the underdrain system are vertical PVC cleanouts that extend up to the surface of the mulch layer. The underdrain system is wrapped in a nonwoven geotextile filter fabric and is installed within a gravel jacket in order to minimize the probability of blockage. However, in the event that the underdrain systems become blocked, the bioretention area will not drain appropriately and will begin to pond up, which means that the water quality benefits associated with the bioretention area are lost. The underdrain system should be inspected for blockage monthly or after each major rainfall event. If inspected after a major rainfall event, all ponded water should dissipate over 4-6 hours. Debris causing the blockage should be promptly removed from the underdrain system such that sufficient infiltration through the bioretention area may .occur. The underdrain systems may be accessed/flushed out via the PVC cleanouts located at the top of the mulch layer. B. Bioretention Area Principal Spillway The principal spillway for the bioretention area consists of a 4' x 4' concrete drop inlet attached to a 18-inch RCP barrel. On top of the drop inlet is a metal trash rack that prevents trash from entering the barrel system. The concrete drop inlet principal spillway is responsible for safely conveying larger storm events through the bioretention azea. The principal spillway system is expected to remain robust throughout the life of the bioretention azea, but periodic inspection of this system is required. This inspection should occur biannually. The inspector should check for the presence of spalling, scaling, or cracking in the spillway system. Spalling is evident when pieces of concrete fall from the main pipe. It is defined as the breaking, chipping, or fraying of concrete slabs that leave an uneven surface or edge, most often at joints or cracks. Scaling occurs when the surface of the concrete begins to flake off. The presence of cracking is indicated by separations in the concrete that are not located in the joints. Cracking can indicate the presence of structural problems and lead to leaks. Cracking can also cause the system to no longer be watertight, which can lead to piping (i.e. migration of soil particles into the pipe). If piping occurs, the risk of failure of the dam structure is greatly increased. Evidence of any of the above issues require that an engineer be contacted for an additional inspection to determine the need for repairs. 2. If the principal spillway system (which includes the trash rack) becomes blocked so that it does not operate at full capacity, the risk of dam overtopping or other uncontrolled releases may result. Therefore, to ensure hydraulic capacity of the spillway, the principal spillway system (including trash rack) should be inspected for blockage monthly or after each major rainfall event. Any vegetative growth that occurs within the principal spillway systems should be removed promptly so that the full hydraulic capacity of the systems is maintained. C. Downstream Outlet Area The downstream outlet areas should be inspected monthly for the following items: The downstream outlet areas should be kept clear of sediment accumulation, tree limbs, and any other debris that could potentially cause blockage. 2. The outlet area should be inspected to ensure that positive drainage is maintained. Any time the inspector notices that the drainage leaving the Bioretention area or underground detention system is not flowing freely downstream, but rather "ponding" in a sump, the appropriate steps should be taken to reestablish positive drainage. If necessary, an engineer should be contacted to ensure these steps are taken appropriately. IV. MAINTENANCE OFBIORETENTIONAREA A. Bioretention Area Vegetation 1. Once the construction of the Bioretention area is complete, the vegetation should be watered for 14 consecutive days unless sufficient natural rainfall in order to establish the vegetation appropriately. 2. The interior of the Bioretention area shall be planted with approved vegetation and a mulch layer. 3. Stakes and wires for the trees within the Bioretention area may be removed once the trees have taken root, or by 6 months, whichever is sooner. 4. The vegetation (i.e. trees, shrubs, etc.) should be visually inspected monthly (more frequently in the summer) for disease or pest problems. If pest treatment is necessary, use the least toxic method. All dead and diseased vegetation considered beyond treatment should be removed and replaced. The vegetation should be kept healthy and vibrant. The grass within the bioretention area should also be healthy and vibrant. If necessary, it should be overseeded (usually in the fall - September to October) at a rate of 100 lbs/acre. 6.

If erosion is present along the drainage path within the bioretention area, it maybe stabilized using small stones. 2. The pH of the bioretention area should be checked twice a year. If necessary, apply an alkaline product (such as limestone) to maintain the appropriate pH. Please reference the detail sheet for the bioretention area included in this report for the appropriate pH levels. 3. If present, accumulated trash, litter, and debris should be removed during the monthly inspection. 4. If present, accumulated sediment should be removed per the "Sediment Monitoring" section of this manual. C.
