Dear Mrs. Karoly:
The following information is an update to an earlier submittal, DWQ# 07-1441, after
direction from the US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE). Our initial submittal has
been placed on hold by the DWQ until the updated information is provided. The USAGE
has issued a NW Permit 29 based on the information within this submittal (see attached).
The USAGE has decided that impacts related to a proposed thoroughfare road and 2 side
streets should be considered cumulative to the proposed project and not separate.
Additionally the USAGE determined the City of Charlotte did not have to sign for
impacts that occurred within their public right-of--way. The project will involve the
construction of apartment buildings and supporting infrastructure. At this time no final
building plans have been prepared. However, no additional impacts to jurisdictional
features will result from the proposed apartments. In addition, storm water management
for the final plan will meet the DWQ BMP requirement of 85% TSS. We request
conditional approval for the 401 with final storm water plans to be provided to the DWQ
upon completion.
In total 296 linear feet of stream and 0.174 acres of wetlands are proposed for impact.
Construction of Prosperity Village Road, Cottage Oaks Drive and Thomas Ridge Roads
is required by the City of Charlotte via zoning approvals for development of the subject
property. The proposed culverts will be buried to allow for aquatic life passage. The 404
permit approval requires mitigation of 2961f of stream. The client has received an
acceptance letter from the EEP for mitigation payment

VII. 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 alignment of the proposed
Prosperity Village Road road has been set by Charlotte DOT at Ridge Road and I 485 (terminal
ends of road). Therefore no flexibility in adjustments to corridor between those roads The 2 side
streets have to connect to existins7 streets and cannot be moved Jurisdictional features exist east
and west of larger road corridor so avoidance is not possible Similarly a stream flows along the
eastern property lme and is unavoidable in the case of the 2 side streets Proposed road
ali nments area roximatel e endicular to 'urisdictional features.
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.
USAGE - 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
Updated 11/1/2005

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 (see DWQ website for most current
version.).
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
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
The 404 permit requires mitigation for restoration of 296 if of stream The applicant
proposes payment to the EEP for meetin mitigation requirements An acceptance letter
from the EEP is enclosed.

Re: Ridge Road Wetlands
Dear Wendell:
Enclosed please find copies of the Ridge Road Rezoning Technical Data Plan
and Schematic Site Plan both of which are stamped and dated as approved by
the Charlotte City Council. Inasmuch as this is a unit of government both Scott
Putnam at CDOT and I think that this should be sufficient to convince the USAGE
that we are required to do this work.
Please note on the Schematic Site Plan that both Thomas Ridge Road and
Cottage Oaks Drive are shown as connecting through to our site. It is for this
reason that we must build these roads including Prosperity Village Drive.
Furthermore, the City's road right of way for both public roads extends to our
property line. Therefore, we have not only the responsibility but in fact the right to
make that connection, subject to the City's review of our road profile and
construction details.
For further details of my meeting with Scott Putnam on this issue see the e-mail
that I sent today. Of course, call me with any questions.
Sincerely,
J n .Porter

impacts were met. This particular development is required to construct a portion of a new thorou~~hfare
and to also construct connections with existing public streets located on an adjacent property.
Prosperity Village Road is designated as a minor thoroughfare (unbuilt) on the i\~Iecklenburs-Union
