This is a revised acceptance letter; it replaces one issued dated February 20, 2015, The purpose of this letter is to notify you that
the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) 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 NCEEP will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts. It is the responsibility
of the applicant to contact these agencies to determine if payment to the NCEEP will be approved. You must also comply with all
other state, federal or local government permits, regulations or authorizations associated with the proposed activity includina SL 2009-
337: An Act to Promote the Use of Compensatory Mitigation Banks as amended by S.L. 2011-343.
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/CANIA permit within this time frame, this acceptance will expire. It is the applicant's
responsibility to send copies of the permits to NCEEP. Once NCEEP 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 to NCEEP by an applicant is calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed at www.nceep.net.
Based on the information supplied by you in your request to use the NCEEP, the impacts that may require compensatory mitigation
are summarized in the following table. The amount of mitigation required and assigned to NCEEP for this impact is determined by
permitting agencies and may exceed the impact amounts shown below,
*The EEP does not currently have riparian buffer mitigation credit available in the 03020104 hydrologic unit (huc). EEP
proposes to use credits from an adjacent hue to meet this mitigation requirement. Per 15A NCAC 02B .0295. a 2:1 locational
ratio is required to use mitigation in an adjacent hue. Upon receipt of payment, EEP will take responsibility for providing the
compensatory mitigation. The mitigation will be performed in accordance with the N.C. Department of Environment and Natural
Resources' Ecosystem Enhancement Program In-Lieu Fee Instrument dated July 28, 2010.
Thank you for your interest in the NCEEP. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Kelly Williams at
