E. Impact Justification and Mitigation O
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
S&EC completed a wetland delineation and Neuse River Buffer evaluation for the entire property and offsite utility locations in order to identify natural
resources so that impacts could be avoided & minimized to the maximum extent practicable. Proposed impacts include two (2) road crossings, one (1)
greenway crossing, two (2) aerial sanitary sewer crossings and two (2) SCM outfalls. Impact 1 is proposed road crossing. Proposed impacts include
permanent (i.e. culvert), permanent -no functional loss (Le riprap dissipator pad) and temporary (i.e. construction access) stream impacts, and associated
riparian buffer impacts. Stream and riparian buffer impacts have been minimized by designing the crossing at a near perpendicular angle. Stream
mitigation is being proposed at a 2:1 ratio to compensate for these proposed impacts. Buffer mitigation is proposed per the Neuse River Riparian Buffer
Rules. Impact 2 is proposed road crossing. Proposed impacts include permanent (i.e. box culvert), permanent -no functional loss (Le riprap dissipator
pad) and temporary (i.e. construction access) stream impacts, and associated riparian buffer impacts. Stream and riparian buffer impacts have been
minimized by designing the crossing at a near perpendicular angle. Stream mitigation is being proposed at a 2:1 ratio to compensate for these proposed
impacts. Buffer mitigation is proposed per the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules.
Road Crossings 1 & 2 are required per the City of Raleigh, the project must meet the requirements of UDO Section 8.3 / Blocks, Lots, Access and more
specifically, Block Perimeter. Block perimeter is covered in Section 8.3.2. and ensures blocks associated with Preliminary Subdivisions don't become
oversized reducing access for not only vehicle and pedestrian, but more importantly emergency response. Additionally, the City of Raleigh is requiring
that the project meet the requirements of UDO Section 8.3.4. / Subdivision Access. Per Section 8.3.4.E pertaining to required connectivity, it states,
"streets must be interconnected and must connect with adjacent streets external to the subdivision in order to provide multiple routes for pedestrian and
vehicle trips from, to and within the subdivision."
And finally, the City of Raleigh is requiring that the project meet the following requirements:
• Sections 8.3.4.C.2 — "Where a development adjoins unsubdivided land, stub streets within the new subdivision shall be extended to the meet maximum
block perimeter standards of Sec. 8.3.2."
• Sections 8.3.4.C.3 — "The stub street must be extended to the boundary of the abutting property to the point where the connection to the anticipated
street is expected."
• Sections 8.3.4.C.4 — "Stub streets must be located so that the portion of the block perimeter located on the subject property does not exceed 50 % of
the applicable block perimeter maximum."
• Sections 8.3.4.C.5 — "If a stub street exists on an abutting property, the street system of any new development plan must connect to the stub street to
form a through street."
In summary and noted in Section 8.3.1.A, B, C & D, large blocks with limited connectivity discourage walking, contribute to street congestion, and add
driving distance that can negatively impact emergency services.
Impact 3 is proposed greenway crossing. Proposed impacts include permanent (i.e. culvert), permanent -no functional loss (Le riprap dissipator pad) and
temporary (i.e. construction access) stream impacts, associated riparian buffer impacts and permanent wetland impacts. Stream and riparian buffer
impacts have been minimized by designing the crossing at a near perpendicular angle. Stream mitigation is being proposed at a 2:1 ratio to compensate
for these proposed impacts. Impacts 4 & 5 are Deemed Allowable per NCAC 02b .0714(9)(b)(i). Impact 6 is a proposed aerial sewer crossing. Stream
impacts have been avoided. Riparian buffer impacts are deemed allowable per NCAC 02b .0714(11)(II)(i). Impact 7 is a proposed aerial sewer crossing.
Proposed impacts include riparian buffer impacts only. Stream impacts have been avoided. Buffer mitigation is proposed per the Neuse River Riparian
Buffer Rules.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Standard Erosion & Sediment control measures such as Basins, silt fence, and Inlet protection; and dewatering measures such as a pump
around/bypass channel, filter bags, and check dams.

2. Violations (DWR Requirement)
2a. Is the site in violation of DWR Water Quality Certification Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500), Isolated Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .1300), or DWR Surface Water or Wetland Standards or

Yes No
3. Cumulative Impacts (DWR Requirement)
3a. Will this project result in additional development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality? *
Yes No
3b. If you answered "no," provide a short narrative description.
NEUSE/PHASE II: We have reviewed the "Draft Internal Policy, Cumulative impacts and the 401 Water Quality Certification and Isolated Wetlands
Programs' document prepared by the NC Division of Water Quality on April 10, 2004, version 2.1. The draft states that many private developments are
unlikely to cause cumulative impacts, including projects such as urban in -fill, most residential subdivisions and small commercial developments as well
as agricultural and silvicultural operations. The Haddonstone project is a residential development. Additionally, the project is located within the City of
Raleigh jurisdiction, therefore the adjacent properties that have potential for development will have the following regulations to protect downstream
waters: 1) the Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Protection regulations, these regulations require limited development within the riparian buffer area, in
addition Best Management Practices may be required that control nitrogen if diffuse flow cannot be achieved; and 2) the Phase II NPDES Stormwater
Permit Program, this program includes permitting requirements for Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4s) in addition to post -construction
stormwater management requirements. We anticipate that the DWR will advise us if any additional information is needed.
