D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project
The proposed work is intended to create a recreational site for public use as a paddle access, while minimizing impacts to aquatic resources To avoid
and minimize impacts to aquatic resources the proposed construction is designed such that minimal disturbance will occur All disturbed areas will be
immediately seeded upon completion (temporary- annual rye), and stabilized at the close of each construction day (see Site Plan) Conserving the
Integrity of the New River as it flows through the subject property is of utmost importance to creating this recreational site
1b Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed Impacts through construction techniques
All heavy equipment will be kept out of the stream during project construction No hydraulic leaks will be tolerated on equipment working In or around
the project area Disturbance of channel banks and equipment access areas shall be held to the minimum necessary to allow for construction/
excavation Wire- backed silt fences will be used to avoid stream sedimentation during construction

This section summaries inforntalion regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent ►-wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine -wshether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos hale been met.
The agencies ►►ill assert jurisdiction o%er non - navigable tributaries of 1 NWs ►►here the tributaries are "reladicly permanent
►►titers" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flo-w-w scar -round or hale continuous floii at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A Welland that directly abuts an RPW is also jut isdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a 7 NNV, but has year -round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section IILD.2. If the aquatic resource is a -w►ctland directly abutting a tributan pith perennial flo►►,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A i %clland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus c%alualion. Corps districts and
EI'A regions ii ill include in the record any a►ailable information that documents the existence of a significant nexus betviccn a
relati►ely permanent Iributan' that is not perennial (and its adjacent victlands if any) and a traditional navigable ►later, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of la►►.
If the watcrbodya is not an RP%%', or a wetland directly abutting an RPIV, a JD hill require additional data to determine if the
%werbody has a significant nexus s ith a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent viellands, the significant nexus c -waluation must
consider the tributary in combination ►-with all of its adjacent -wsetlands. 1 his significant nexus c►aluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent .%ctlands is used s►hether the re%ies► area identified in the JD request is
the tributary, or its adjacent ►-wetlands, or both. If the JD coxers a tributary s►ith adjacent -w-w etlands, complete Section 111.6.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite netlands, and Section III.B.3 for all ►-wetlands adjacent to that U ibutar), both onsite
and offske. 1 he deter mination ►-whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 belo%%.

A significant nexus nnal)sis ►►ill assess the flo►► characteristics and functions of the tributar) itself and the functions performed
by any ►►etlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if the) significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
of a 'I NN'. For each of the following situations, a significant news exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculali►e or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and /or biological integrity of a'1 NN'.
Considerations ►►hen evaluating significant nexus include, but arc not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of ►►ater in the tributary and its proximity to a I'NN', and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on an) specific threshold of dislance (e.g. bct►ccn a
tributai) and its adjacent ► ►etland or between a tributary and the i NIV). Similarly, the fact an adjacent ►►etland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely deferntinati►c of significant nexus.
Draw connections bet►►cen the, features documented and the effects on the 1'NW, as identified in the Ropauos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any). have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
IN Ws, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or hood waters reaching a "INW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetland., (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and
other species such as feeding, nesting. spa►sning, or rearing )oung for species that are present in tlx: INW?
• Does the tributary. in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any). have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationship; to the physical chemical, or
biological integrity of the IN 9

'lliank you for your letter of November 11, 2014, concerning the nbove project.
There are no known recorded archaeological sites within the project boundaries However, the Project area has
tic%et been st� stematically surveyed to determine the location or significance of archaeological resources Based
on the topographic and hydrological situation and the density of previously recorded archaeological sites in the
area, there is a high probability for the presence of prehistoric of historic archaeological sites within the project
boundaries.
We recommend that a comprehensive sun•ey ire conducted by an experienced archaeologist to identify and
evaluate the significance of archaeological remains that may be damaged or destrojed by the proposed project.
Potential effects on unknown resources must be assessed l for to the initiation of constnlction activities.
I'-,%,o copies of the resulting archaeological survey tepott, as well as one copy of the appropriate site forms,
should be forwarded to us for teview and comment as soon as they are mailable and well in advance of any
construction activities.
A list of archaeological e.onsultants who have conducted or cxptessed an interest in contract cork in North
Carolina ns available at www archaeology. ncdcr. gov /ncarch /resource /consultants htm llic archaeologists listed, or
any other experienced archaeologist, may he contacted to utnduct the rec(himiended sunny. The
archaeological consultant should contact Western Office staff archaeologist, Linda Hall, at 828/296 -7230, prior
to initiating fieldwork
I he above comments are made pur,uant to Section 106 of the National I Iistoric Preservation Act and the
Advisory Council on Histouc Preservation's Regulations for (compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR
