Salisbury Street, 9th Floor Raleigh, NC 27604 Subject: Executive Summary 2 p 1 5 O 6 2 O UNCC Campus Storm Water Improvements Section 404 Individual Permit and Section 401 Individual Water Quality Certification Application The UNCC Campus Storm Water improvements project consists of seven sites, totaling approximately 35 acres. The sites are located on the University of North Carolina — Charlotte (UNCC) campus (Figures 1 -3, attached). The purpose of this project includes stormwater improvements on the UNC Charlotte main campus. Storm water improvements will be proposed for the Davis Lake Site and for six additional sites. Dewberry has subcontracted Carolina Wetland Services, Inc. (CWS) to request a Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination and to provide Section 404/401 permitting services for this project. The Davis Lake Site project includes retrofitting an existing pond (Davis Lake) into a stormwater best management practice (BMP) to treat runoff from on -site impervious areas (Figures 13 and 14). This project requires a preliminary jurisdictional verification and a section 404/401 Individual Permit. Site No. 1 includes a proposed regenerative stormwater conveyance system to be constructed in line with a non - jurisdictional ephemeral conveyance. Site No.l will not require permitting as no jurisdictional features will be impacted. However, a PJD verification of the non - jurisdictional ephemeral conveyance is being requested. Site No. 2 involves maintenance within a non jurisdictional stormwater management facility. This facility is a dry detention basin that will be retrofitted as an extended detention wetland BMP or a wet pond BMP. Site No. 2 will not require a permit as no jurisdictional features will be impacted. However, a verification of the non - jurisdictional stormwater management facility is being requested. Site No. 3 involves the restoration of Toby Creek and its tributaries within the UNC Charlotte main campus. At this point in time, only Reach B is being considered for restoration. Due to the constraints along this reach, the reach will not be relocated and instead will be stabilized in place. Natural channel designs (NCD) techniques, including bioengineering, floodplain benching, riparian buffer restoration, and in- stream structures will be utilized in this design. UNCC will likely request mitigation credit for restoration work completed on Toby Creek or will complete the project in partnership with City of Charlotte and /or the North.Carolina Department of Environmental and Natural Resources (NCDENR) Division of Mitigation Services (NCDMS, formerly NCEEP). Once plans have been finalized, they NORTH CAROLINA . SOUTH CAROLINA WWW.CWS- INC.NET UNCC Campus Storm Water Improvements Section 404 Individual Permit Anmlication June 18, 2015 CWS Proiect No. 2015 -3551 will be submitted to the USACE for permitting and mitigation credit determination. Currently, CWS is requesting a verification of the jurisdictional waters of the U.S. within the project boundaries. Site No. 4 proposes maintenance improvements to an existing pond on the western side of the UNCC campus with the purpose of flood control. The improvements will not result in additional permanent impacts to jurisdictional waters but a verification of the on -site jurisdictional features and a permit for this maintenance work is requested. Site No. 5 involves stream restoration of the degraded channel flowing through the botanical garden on the east side of the UNCC campus. All impacts due the restoration will be temporary. However, a verification of the on -site features is requested. Site No. 6 involves stream restoration and construction of a stormwater management facility. Construction of the stormwater management facility will result in permanent impacts to jurisdictional waters and will therefore require permitting and verification.

The project will not increase flooding hazard and will potentially alleviate flooding through restoration of the degraded channel. Additionally, the 100 -year flood elevation will not change. The remaining project sites are not located within the 100 -year FEMA floodplain (Figure 6, attached). This project will not result in any above grade fills within the 100 -year floodplain. All work will involve excavation of soil within the floodplain and the end result will likely balance cut and fill quantities. Jurisdictional Delineation Davis Lake Site On May 29, 2014, CWS scientists Thomas Blackwell, Professional Wetland Scientist (PWS), and Kelly Thames, Wetland Professional in Training (WPIT) delineated jurisdictional waters of the U.S. within the project area (Figure 8, attached).

Results The results of the on -site field investigation conducted by CWS indicate that there are several jurisdictional stream channels, three jurisdictional wetland areas, one jurisdictional pond, and one non - jurisdictional stormwater management facility that displays wetland indicators located within the project area. On -Site jurisdictional streams include Toby Creek and unnamed tributaries (UTs) to Toby Creek. Toby Creek is within theYadkin -Pee Dee River Basin (HU# 03040105)" and is classified as "Class C Waters" by the NCDWR. Class C Waters are defined as: "Waters protected for uses such as secondary recreation, fishing, wildlife, fish consumption, aquatic life including propagation, survival and maintenance of biological integrity, and agriculture." On -Site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. ultimately flow to the Rocky River, the closest Traditional Navigable Waters (TNW) to on -site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. On -Site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. for the additional sites total approximately 3.21 acres, including 5,619 linear feet (If) of jurisdictional stream channel (Tables 2 -7).

"14 The USACE uses three parameters to identify jurisdictional wetlands. These parameters are as follows: l) Hydrophytic Vegetation, 2) Wetland Hydrology, and 3) Hydric Soils. All three parameters must be present in order for an area to be determined to be a jurisdictional wetland. This section describes each on -site jurisdictional wetland and the field observations that led to their determinations. There is a non - jurisdictional stormwater management facility within the project limits for Site No. 2. This facility is a dry detention basin that displays wetland indicators that include hydric soils and vegetation. There indicators are most likely formed by poor soil drainage in the area in which the facility was constructed. Based on recent guidance from the U.S. EPA and USACE this area would be considered non jurisdictional. Site 3: Tobv Creek Restoration Table 4.

The survey determined that potential habitat for Schweinitz's sunflower and Georgia aster occur within the project area, however no potential habitat was observed. Due to the nature of the proposed stormwater improvements, the project is unlikely to have impact on aforementioned federally - protected species. The Northern long -eared bat (Myotis septentrionalis) is one of the species of bats most impacted by the disease white -nose syndrome. Habitat for long -eared bat includes forested areas of any age, rocky areas with boulders, and culverts greater than four feet wide. Due to recent population declines of almost 89% caused by white -nose syndrome as well as continued spread of the disease, the northern long -eared bat now receives protection as a threatened species under the Endangered Species Act. Under the Act, a threatened species is likely to become endangered in the foreseeable future, while an endangered species is currently in danger of becoming extinct. The listing became effective on May 4, 2015. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is requesting the documentation of the amount of wooded acres cleared in connection with any construction project that takes place within any county shown on the May 28, 2015 White -Nose Syndrome Buffer Zone Map, attached. This project takes place within the long -eared bat habitat range. Due to the nature of these stormwater improvement projects, more than an acre of wooded area will most likely be cleared for this project. Please note that no physical surveying for potential habitat within this project has been included in this scope at this time Purpose and Need for the Project The purpose and need for the UNCC Stormwater Improvements Projects (Davis Lake and Sites 1 -6) is to provide stormwater quantity and quality treatment to runoff originating from on -site impervious surface areas. This includes retrofitting on -site ponds to provide enhanced stormwater treatment, restoring stream channels, and providing alternative BMPs such as regenerative stormwater conveyances. Alternatives Analysis Davis Lake and all six stormwater improvement projects represent the most optimal design and location to provide the greatest stormwater quantity and quality treatment for on -site stormwater. UNCC hired multiple local engineering firms to analyze the site to develop an overall Stormwater Master Plan. This plan has also involved discussions with different stakeholder groups such as NCDENR -DMS as well as Charlotte - Mecklenburg Storm Water Services (CMSWS). These groups have helped UNCC plan and locate suitable on -site locations for the construction of stormwater management facilities as well as contribute to the restoration and enhancement of on -site streams and wetlands. Avoidance and Minimization Impacts to on -site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. have been reduced to the maximum extent practicable. Proper sediment and erosion control measures will be applied to minimize disturbances to downstream waters. No impact to downstream waters is proposed and the total surface water acreage of the on -site jurisdictional pond will approximately remain the same. The proposed Davis Lake impacts are the result of fill in Davis Lake and total approximately 0.04 acre. Impacts to the normal pool elevation of Davis Lake were minimized through design iterations to the maximum extent practicable. All other impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S. within the Davis Lake project limits are the result of excavation of accumulated sediments (pond maintenance) from the bed of the lake. This excavation will be completed with equipment operating from upland areas. Removed UNCC Campus Storm Water Improvements Section 404 Individual Permit Application June 18, 2015 CWS Proiect No. 2015 -3551 sediments will be placed in upland areas and seeded and stabilized. All disturbed areas will be seeded and matted with natural fiber matting. Sites 1, 2, and 3 propose to utilize non jurisdictional features and natural channel design restoration techniques to improve the water quality through of Toby Creek and downstream waters. These techniques represent the least damaging environmental alternative and will only result in temporary impacts to Toby Creek and its tributaries during the construction of the stream restoration component of the project. The restoration will also provide an ecological uplift of a currently degraded section of the Toby Creek. Sites 4, 5, and 6 represent limited options for developing stormwater management facilities within an urban environment. UNCC is challenged with developing public open spaces for its students and as well as providing stormwater facilities that can also serve as water quality treatment. Therefore, Site 4 is proposing an existing pond to be retrofitted to improve its water quality treatment function. Sites 5 and 6 are located in the "Glen" garden and will include off -line floodplain benching, as well as stream restoration that will include temporary water storage through the use of a weir and excavated advanced floodplain. CWS believes the proposed designs represent the least damaging environmental alternative while still meeting the goals of the project. All proposed impacts are designed to improve storm water management and water quality management of stormwater runoff. Proposed Impacts to Jurisdictional Waters Unavoidable impacts to on -site jurisdictional waters associated with UNCC Campus Storm Water Improvements are summarized in Tables 8 throughl2. Davis Lake Site Permanent impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S. associated with this project are limited to a total of approximately 0.04 acre of a jurisdictional pond (Figure 13, attached). The existing 0.68 acre pond (Pond A) is proposed to be partially filled, while the eastern portion will be expanded by excavation. The proposed new pond will have a pool surface area of 0.64 acre at normal pool elevation. Therefore, total impacts to Pond A (Davis Lake) total 0.04 acre of permanent impacts and are the result of fill (Figure 13). The retrofit of Davis Lake includes grading a littoral shelf that will be planted with native wetland species (Figure 14). This stormwater feature will provide habitat as well as improve water quality of stormwater runoff by filtration.

The stormwater channel proposed for restoration was evaluated to be a non jurisdictional ephemeral conveyance. This project proposes no impacts to the on -site downstream waters (Figure 9; Seasonal/Perennial RPW Al). Therefore the project (Site 1) will cause no impacts to jurisdictional waters. Site 2: Dry Basin near Union Deck The on -site Wetland AA2 is located in an old sediment basin and was thus evaluated to be non - jurisdictional (Figure 10). Therefore the project (Site 2) will cause no impacts to jurisdictional waters. Site 3: Tobv Creek Restoration The project (Site 3) proposes to restore approximately 2,354 if of stream channel. The stream restoration project proposes to re- establish a floodplain connection to a section of Toby Creek which will provide an ecological uplift of the system. The restoration work will involve the restoration of a section of incised creek channel, installing in- stream structures for stability and habitat, and native plantings for stream bank and buffer stabilization. The design will coordinate with the Mecklenburg County Parks Greenway Department to accommodate a proposed parallel greenway trail system. The project will also be used as an academic resource for the University's environmental sciences and to promote the public's knowledge and understanding of the benefits of stream restoration. Figure 15 illustrates the location of the proposed stream restoration. All impacts to Toby Creek will be temporary. Table 9. Site 3.

Assign points to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality. Total Score (from reverse): 54 Comments: . Evaluator's Signature /�k l°"ll"� Date 3/2/15 This channel evaluation form is intended to be used only as a guide to assist landowners and environmental professionals in gathering the data required by the United States Army Corps of Engineers in order to malce a preliminary assessment of stream quality.

A query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, or conservation /managed areas within the proposed project boundary submitted with your request for information. These results are presented in the attached 'Documented Occurrences' table and map. Also attached is a table summarizing rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the project boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists and is included for reference. In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our records. Tables of natural areas and conservation /managed area within a one -mile radius, if any, are also included in this report. Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NC Natural Heritage Program data may not be redistributed without permission from the NCNHP. Also please note that the NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve (DNP), Registered Heritage Area (RHA), or an occurrence of a Federally - listed species is documented within or near the project area. Thank you for your inquiry. If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please contact Allison Schwarz Weakley at all ison.weaklevna ncdenr.00v or 919.707.8629.

REVIEW PERFORMED FOR SITE EVALUATION (CHECK ALL THAT APPLY): ❑ Office (Desk) Determination. Date: ® Field Determination. Date(s): January 28, 2014, Davis Lake, March 2, 2015 Additional Sites 1. The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional waters of the United States on the subject site, and the permit applicant or other affected party who requested this preliminary JD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an approved jurisdictional determination (JD) for that site. Nevertheless, the permit applicant or other person who requested this preliminary JD has declined to exercise the option to obtain an approved JD in this instance and at this time. 2. In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre - construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non - reporting NWP or other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an approved JD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware of the following: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a preliminary JD, which does not make an official determination of jurisdictional waters; (2) that the applicant has the option to request an approved JD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an approved JD could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) that the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) that the applicant can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5) that undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting an approved JD constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the preliminary JD, but that either form of JD will be processed as soon as is practicable; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps permit authorization based on a preliminary JD constitutes agreement that all wetlands and other water bodies on the site affected in any way by that activity are jurisdictional waters of the United States, and precludes any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an approved JD or a preliminary JD, that JD will be processed as soon as is practicable. Further, an approved JD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331, and that in any administrative appeal, jurisdictional issues can be raised (see 33 C.F.R. 331.5(a)(2)). If, during that administrative appeal, it becomes necessary to make an official determination whether CWA jurisdiction exists over a site, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional waters on the site, the Corps will provide an approved JD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. This preliminary JD finds that there "may be" waters of the United States on the subject project site, and identifies all aquatic features on the site that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information: 2 SUPPORTING DATA.
