The letter requests approval of a residential flow value of 250 GPDlresidence for any future dwellings that may become tributary to the subject wastewater collection system. The Division also received additional information on April 3, 2001 The information provided flow records between January 1998 and November 2000 for the WWTP. The evaluation also included the daily wastewater flows for a 33 day period from February 19 through March 23, 2001 for a select 97 homes in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0219(1)(3). Based upon the information submitted, the Division hereby approves the use of 250 GPD per single- family residence in all applicable non -discharge permit applications for future sewer line extensions for the Town of Clayton. This consideration applies to any applicable future projects submitted to the Division as well as any projects which are currently under review. Regardless of the adjusted desi ngn daily wastewater flaw rate, at no time shall the wastewater flows exceed the effluent limits defined in the Town's NPDES permit for the treatment facility or exceed the capacity of the sewers downstream of any new sewer extension.

Horton, Inc. Attention: Robert Stuart 2000 Aerial Center Parkway, Suite l l0A Morrisville, NC 27560 Re: Lawson Glen, Little Creek Church Road, Clayton, Johnston County, NC: 404/401 and Neuse River Riparian Buffer Impacts Mr. Stuart: Pursuant to your request, Spangler Environmental, Inc. (SEI) has reviewed the attached site plans to determine the type(s), of impacts to waters of the United States (WOTUS), waters of the state, and Neuse River Riparian Buffers that will result from the project, as designed, as well as the types of permits associated with these impacts, if any, that will be required. Sections 404 and 401 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) regulate the discharge of dredge and fill material into WOTUS. Section 404 of the CWA is a federal regulation administered by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). Section 401 of the CWA is a direct grant of authority to states (i.e. the North Carolina Division of Water Resources (DWR)) to review any discharge into WOTUS for compliance with water quality requirements. The Neuse River Buffer Rules (i.c. 15A NCAC 02B .0714 Neuse River Basin: Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy: Protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Buffers) is a State of North Carolina regulation intended to protect existing riparian buffers in the Neuse River Basin to maintain their nutrient removal functions. These state and federal regulations have specific permit thresholds that define what types and quantities of actions require formal permitting and approval. Based on the attached project plans, the only feature subject to any of the above regulations is an unnamed tributary (UT) to Little Creek, which flows from northeast to southwest along the northeastern -most portion of the project area. Neuse Buffers Pursuant to the Neuse Buffer Rules' Section 1 I (Table of Uses: 15A NCAC 02B .0714 (11)(kk)(i)), the proposed impacts to Zone 1 and Zone 2, as shown in the attached plans, are Deemed Allowable. Specifically, this section of the Table of Uses states: Utility -- Sewer Lines - New Line Constructionllnstallation Activities Perpendicular crossings of streams and other surface waters subject to this Rule provided that vegetation is allowed regenerate in disturbed areas outside of the permanent maintenance corridor: 4338 Aland Road Raleigh, N.C. 27609 phone 919-875-4288 fax 919.873.4Y87 TOM. FREE 1 866 SPANGLER www.spanglerenvirontnental.cotn and that the impact consists of a: Construction corridor of less than or equal to 40 linear feet wide and a permanent maintenance corridor that is equal to or less than 30 feet wide Deemed Allowable is defined as uses that: shall be designed, constructed and maintained to minimize vegetation and soil disturbance and to provide the maximum water quality protection practicable, including construction, monitoring, and maintenance activities... Unlike the Allowable Upon Authorization use (15A NCAC 02B .0714 (11)(kk)(ii)), the Deemed Allowable use does not require a written Authorization Certificate from the Authorityfor impacts within the riparian buffer pursuant to Rule .0611 of this Subchapter. Because the proposed water line will be installed and located entirely within the proposed sanitary sewer line easement and, as a result, will not result in any additional impacts to the Neuse River Riparian Buffer, no Authorization Certificate will be required for it. CWA Sections 401 & 401 CWA Sections 404 and 401 regulate activities that result in dredging of or discharge into WOTUS. The CWA jurisdictional limits of a stream feature are defined by its ordinary high water mark (OHWM). As shown in the attached design plans, the proposed sanitary sewer's disturbance footprint is well outside of the UT to Little Creek's OHWM. As a result, provided the approved erosion and sedimentation control plan is followed, its construction will not result in dredge or fill within a WOTUS. Because no dredge or fill are proposed with the stream (WOTUS), no WOTUS impacts will result. Because there will be no WOTUS impacts, 404/401 permitting will not be required. Similarly, provided the proposed water line's installation does not result in dredge, fill, or dewatering withinrto the UT, the proposed action will not result in WOTUS impacts. As a result, no 404/401 permitting for its installation will be triggered/required. It should be noted, however, that should any dredge, fill or dewatering of the WOTUS occur during construction, the USACE and NCDWR should be immediately notified. Should you have any questions, or require additional information, please call. Sincerely, Spangler Environmental, Inc. Ward Marotti Director Land & Water Resources ac SPANGLER ENVIRONMENTAL, INC.
