4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
None
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:

4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: *
The purpose of this emergency project was to replace a compromised 80-foot section of sanitary sewer 12" ductile iron restrained pipe (DIP) with a 12" DIP encased in a 24" encasement.
A sanitary overflow was reported on December 24th, 2022 and a sanitary bypass pump was installed from upstream to downstream manholes on the same day. Woody debris in Muddy
Creek was piled up on the aerial sanitary sewer crossing which created enough pressure to compromise the DIP. Repair work on the sanitary sewer line commenced the week of January
3rd.
a
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: *
The project permanently impacted 20 feet of stream bank on each side of Muddy Creek where the pipe crosses. The project is located along Muddy Creek at 36.092561,-80.361167
decimal degrees.
Work entailed the removal/excavation of a damaged 50-foot, aerial pipe segment over Muddy Creek, replacement with an 80-foot 24" encasement DIP section, constructing a stable bank
using rock/geotextile, coir matting and establishing a stable segment of stream bed at the base of the bank. Repair work was completed from both sides of the stream bank, no work was
performed within the stream bed except for tree debris clearing. The site was accessed from the existing greenway system at Lantern Ridge Drive and existing sewer easements. Erosion
control measures were installed prior to work.
Stone was placed to establish a stable work area within the easement. Disturbed areas were reseeded and mulched when work was completed in late January. An excavator, a skid steer
loader and a dump truck were used to stabilize the streambank. Please see the five attached details; steel casing pipe detail, temporary silt fence, temporary construction entrance, bank
stabilization, and seeding details.
