4. Project Description and History
4a. 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 existing culvert is located on Parkdale Drive, between Sabastian Court and Fairpoint Drive. The land use is residential. The existing culvert is an 18" RCP and is undersized, causing
localized flooding in significant rain events.
4b. Have Corps permits or DWR certifications been obtained for this project (including all prior phases) in the past?
Yes No Unknown
4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
0
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
85
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
The proposed culvert replacement at Parkdale Drive in Clemmons, NC will reduce flooding and roadway overtopping in this area.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: *
This project will replace an undersized culvert with a double 30" culvert to reduce flooding and roadway overtopping in this area. The existing pipe is an 18" RCP. We are limited in pipe
size and elevation change by an existing sewer main above the culvert and rock at depths below the culvert. We are proposing two 30" pipes at lower invert elevations to keep the top -of -
pipe elevation at the existing top -of -pipe elevation because of limited separation between culvert and sanitary sewer. The proposed pipe invert will be a foot lower than the existing invert,
which will require some grading of the upstream channel to meet the new culvert.
The existing culvert is 70 LF and the proposed culvert is 60 LF. There will be minimal grading and channel stabilization needed downstream since the existing invert is more than a foot
above the channel elevation. Grading in the upstream channel will extend approximately 20 LF in order to tie in the new grade and we will include riprap for the newly graded area to
prevent erosion.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations
5a. Have the wetlands or streams been delineated on the property or proposed impact areas?*
Yes No O Unknown
Comments:
Adjacent property owners mow the grassy upland area up to the top of bank at the upstream culvert
inlet. The culvert discharges into a natural rock pool. Property owners maintain the shoulder area as
an extension of their grassed lawn.
5b. If the Corps made a jurisdictional determination, what type of determination was made?
Preliminary Approved Not Verified Unknown N/A
Corps AID Number:
5c. If 5a is yes, who delineated the jurisdictional areas?
Name (if known):
Agency/Consultant Company:

6. Future Project Plans
6a. Is this a phased project?*
Yes No
Are any other NWP(s), regional general permit(s), or individual permits(s) used, or intended to be used, to authorize any part of the proposed project or related activity?

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
3i. Total temporary stream impacts:
65
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Proposed culvert length will be less than existing to avoid excavation of the visible rock downstream. The upstream grading will be limited to that
necessary to tie into existing grades. Riprap will be installed on disturbed stream channel to reduce erosion and downstream impacts.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Erosion and sediment control practices for this project will include pump around to allow all stream work to be completed in dry conditions.
Appropriatesoil erosion and sediment controls will be used and maintained in effective operating condition during construction, and all exposed soil and
other fills, aswell as any work below the ordinary high-water mark, will be permanently stabilized at the earliest
practicable date.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State
2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
Yes No
2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why:
The proposed project is designed to avoid adverse effects to waters of the U.S. and will not impacts wetlands.
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
1a. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?
Yes No
If no, explain why:
This project will not add impervious area and does not require a diffuse flow plan.
2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOT's Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?
Yes No
2b. Does this project meet the requirements for low density projects as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .1003(2)?
Yes No
Comments:
This project is a culvert replacement and will not add impervious area.
