3a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
The properties are located inValle Crucis, NC in central Watauga County. The properties are located just north of route
194 S /Broadstone Rd. Dominant landuses in the general vicinity of the Subject Property include of residential (suburban),
agricultural (crop /pasture), open space (recreational /educational), and light commercial. Several small commerical
businesses and an elementary school occur in the vicinity of the Subject Property, especially south of the Subject
Property along Broadstone Road and 194 S. The proposed Dutch Creek Restoration Project Site is located along the
riparian corridor of Dutch Creek (river left & right), which traverses mulitple properties from east to west. The Subject
Properties contain an elementary school, Valle Landing commerical facility, Valle Crucis Park pavillions, and associated
parking areas. Streambanks at the project site are highly eroded and vertical in areas. Relatively large areas of
deposition (aggradation) are also found just downstream of eroded areas. Streambank vegetation is generally
herbaceous with a few small to medium trees. The topography at the site is gently sloping; elevations on -site are —2680
ft above mean sea level (USGS -Valle Crucis NC Quad).
3b. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
3c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
—720 In ft of Dutch Creek on Subject Properties, —200 In ft UT -Dutch Ck.
3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The goal of this project is to enhance and restore --720 In ft of Dutch Creek. Streambank sloping and benching will occur
throughout the reach to restore floodplain connectivity and decrease erosive incisement of the channgel. Riffle -pool
sequencing, natural channel structures, and a forested riparian buffer will also be restored along the reach.This project is
being partially funded by a Duke Energy Water Resource Fund grant awarded to Valle Crucis Community Park as well as
time and material match by several donors and non - profits.
3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
Natural channel design measures include streambank sloping and creation of a stable bankfull bench, j -hook, cross vane,
and root wad structures, and riparian corridor planting. In one area of major deposition (aggradation), material will be
removed from the in- stream channel and used to rebuild the bankfull bench where it has previously eroded (—STA 4 +10 -
4 +40). Equipment likely to be used for this proposed construction include track -hoes, skidsteers, and dump trucks for
hauling equipment, building materials, and fill material.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The proposed work and associated impacts are intended to restore instream structure and floodplain connectivity at Dutch
Creek along the stream reach while minimizing impacts to aquatic resources. Design measures which minimize impacts
include j -hook, toe wood, and cross -vane structures intended to enhance stream diversity and decrease site sedimentation.
All streambanks will then be planted with appropriate native species (see re -veg detail).
All disturbed buffer areas will be immediately seeded upon completion (temporary - annual ryegrass), matted (coconut/coir
matting), and stabilized at the close of each construction day. Following construction, the banks of the restored channel will be
seeded with a native floodplain mix (permanent seed). Live stakes and matting staples will be used to secure the coconut
matting in these high- stress areas. The forested riparian buffer will be planted with a variety of native 1- gallon, 3- gallon, and B
& B (ball and burlap) trees in September /October.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
All heavy equipment will be kept out of the stream channel during project construction except where absolutely necessary to
install in- stream structures. Any entering of the channel or immediate riparian area will be done with new equipment, no
hydraulic leaks tolerated. Disturbance of channel bottom, banks and equipment access areas shall be held to the minimum
necessary to allow for bank stablization sufficient to restore the hydraulic capacity of the stream channel. Streamflow
associated with Dutch Creek far exceeds 5 cfs therefore pump- around is not feasible. Flow diversion will be utilized to divert
direct flow away from each structure area. Flow diversion will not be performed for work that is done from the top of bank, or
minor placement of structures. Precautions will be taken to keep heavy equipment out of the stream channel except where
absolutely necessary to install bank stabilization /enhancement measures. Work will be conducted in the dry to the extent
practicable. A temporary culvert will be placed on an UT of Dutch Creek (located on the Watauga County Board of Education
property) in order to gain access to the lower portion of the project area (see site plan /construction details).

Explain:
1 Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below.
2 l'or purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TNW and that typically flows year -round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally"
(e.g., typically 3 months).
3 Supporting documentation is presented in Section III.F.

SECTION III: CWA ANALYSIS
A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete
Section III.A.1 and Section III.D.1. only; if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2
and Section III.D.1.; otherwise, see Section IILB below.
1. TNW
Identify TNW:
Summarize rationale supporting determination:
2. Wetland adjacent to TNW
Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent ":
B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Raparros have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non - navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year -round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year -round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law.
If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the
waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is
the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below.

Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed:
C. SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and /or biological integrity of a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW?
Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below:
1. Significant nexus findings for non -RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain
findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III.D:
