RE:Nationwide Permit 3 and 27 Pre-Construction Notification
Lakewood Sewer Replacement and Stream Enhancement Project
City of Durham, Durham County, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Norton and Ms. Goss:
On behalf of our client, the City of Durham, Kimley-Horn is submitting the attached application for
authorization under Nationwide Permits (NWP) #3 and #27 for the above referenced project in
Durham County. The project proposes to replace the undersized 12-inch gravity sanitary sewer
running along Lakewood Avenue between the intersection of University Drive and South Duke Street
and South Roxboro Street with new 24-inch sanitary sewer. This includes replacing the existing aerial
sewer crossing that has been eroded by an unnamed tributary (stream S4) with an underground
sewer crossing. Upsizing the existing aerial sewer crossing would restrict base flow in stream S4.
Therefore, the project will convert the existing aerial sewer crossing to an underground sewer
crossing to avoid all impacts to stream S4. Additionally, the project is proposing to repair and stabilize
477 linear feet of stream S4 surrounding the proposed underground sewer crossing to improve the
water quality functions of the stream and floodplain through enhancement of the natural ecosystem
and riparian community, control and reduce streambank erosion, and improve aquatic and terrestrial
habitat. Repair and enhancement of the stream around the new underground sewer crossing will also
aid in the protection of the new sewer infrastructure and reduce future erosion in the stream channel.
Kimley-Horn staff delineated the project corridor on June 1, 2020 and identified 4 streams within 50
feet of the project corridor (S1, S2, S3, and S4). A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination Request
(SAW-2021-00554) was submitted to April Norton of the USACE on March 16, 2021 and a Buffer
Determination Request was submitted to Joshua Brigham of the NCDWR on March 8, 2021. Both
applications are currently pending review with their respective agencies.

STREAM ENHANCEMENT
The proposed stream enhancement will result in 477 linear feet of unavoidable permanent, no net
loss of water impacts to an unnamed tributary (stream S4). Stream repair and enhancement activities
will include the grading of damaged and unstable stream banks to match natural channel contours,
the placement of rip rap and boulder toe protection along the stream banks to provide stabilization,
and the construction of riffles within the stream to establish grade control, facilitate sediment
transport, and enhance aquatic species habitat. Temporary access to facilitate
construction/installation of stream enhancement structures and streambank repair, and temporary
dewatering via pump-around to allow for work in the dry will result in 17 linear feet of temporary
impacts to stream S4.
The proposed stream enhancement will result in permanent and temporary impacts to the Jordan
Lake Watershed buffer zones along stream S4. Stream enhancement activities including the grading
back of stream banks and the installation of structures to prevent future erosion along the streambank
of stream S4 will result in 19,911 square feet of permanent buffer zone 1 impacts and 7,262 square
feet of buffer zone 2 impacts. Additionally, 4,820 square feet of permanent buffer zone 1 impacts and
864 square feet of permanent buffer zone 2 impacts will result from a new, permanent City of Durham
easement on the western side of stream S4 for current and future access and maintenance to the
stream enhancement project. Temporary access is necessary to complete the proposed stream
enhancement and will result in 4,820 square feet of temporary buffer zone 1 impacts and 864 square
feet of temporary buffer zone 2 impacts along stream S4. All temporarily impacted areas will be
restored and replanted upon completion of the proposed stream restoration.
SEWER REPLACEMENT
No permanent or temporary stream impacts will result from replacing the existing sewer crossing at
stream S4 with an underground sewer crossing, which will be conducted within existing sewer
easement (30' wide). However, temporary impacts will result from the removal of the existing aerial
crossing. This temporarily impacted area falls within the permanent stream enhancement impacts
along stream S4.
The proposed sewer replacement will result in temporary impacts only to the Jordan Lake Watershed
buffer zones along stream S4. Temporary access for the replacement/maintenance of the sewer
crossing within the existing sewer easement (30' wide) will result in 942 square feet of temporary
buffer zone 1 impacts and 1,317 square feet of temporary buffer zone 2 impacts along stream S4 All
temporarily impacted areas will be restored and replanted upon completion of the proposed work.

MITIGATION
No compensatory mitigation is proposed as part of this permit application. The proposed stream
enhancement will serve to improve the water quality within the watershed and will not result in a loss
of water; therefore, no stream mitigation is proposed. Additionally, in accordance with the Jordan
Lake Watershed Buffer Rules, buffer impacts resulting from "Restoration or enhancement" and
"Utility, electric, underground, perpendicular crossings" are considered allowable or exempt buffer
impacts and, therefore, do not require mitigation.

4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
The purpose of the proposed project is to replace the aging, undersized 12-inch gravity sanitary sewer running along Lakewood Avenue with new 24-inch sanitary sewer to improve the
condition of the sewer infrastructure and accommodate existing and future demand. Replacement of and improvements to the existing sewer will also reduce the risk of future overflows
and failures. This includes replacing the existing aerial sewer crossing that has been eroded by an unnamed tributary (stream S4) with an upsized, underground sewer crossing to avoid
stream impacts. Additionally, the project is proposing to repair and stabilize the length of stream S4 surrounding the proposed underground sewer crossing to improve the water quality
functions of the stream and floodplain through enhancement of the natural ecosystem and riparian community, control and reduce streambank erosion, and improve aquatic and
terrestrial habitat. Repair and enhancement of the stream around the new underground sewer crossing will also aid in the protection of the new sewer infrastructure and reduce future
erosion in the stream channel.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*
The project is proposing to replace the undersized 12-inch sanitary sewer running along Lakewood Avenue with new 24-inch sanitary sewer within existing City of Durham sanitary
sewer easements or beneath existing roadway/sidewalk pavement via trenching. Small sections of new City of Durham sanitary sewer easement are proposed, however, none of these
areas are located within streams or riparian buffers. The existing sanitary sewer line will be abandoned in place for portions of the project where the proposed sewer is being relocated,
rather than abandoned in place. The existing aerial sewer crossing that has been eroded by an unnamed tributary (stream S4) will be replaced with an underground sewer crossing.
Upsiang the existing aerial sewer crossing would restrict base flow in stream S4. Therefore, the project will convert the existing aerial sewer crossing to an underground, perpendicular
sewer crossing beneath the stream channel to avoid disturbance to stream S4. The proposed sanitary sewer crossing will be installed within a steel casing pipe and enclosed in a
constructed riffle with a downstream structure set at the same elevation as the top of the sewer casing, so the pipe will be flush with the stream channel bottom and will not restrict base
flow.
As part of the project, stream enhancement is proposed for the length of stream S4 surrounding the existing, exposed aerial sewer crossing. The proposed stream repair will include the
grading of damaged and unstable stream banks to match natural channel contours, the placement of rip rap and boulder toe protection along the stream banks to provide stabilization,
the installation of riffles composed of rip rap, and the construction of log J-hook riffles within the stream to establish grade control, reduce streambank erosion, facilitate sediment
transport, and enhance aquatic species habitat. The constructed riffles will also create profile variability that is currently lacking in the system. The Piedmont Regional Hydraulic
Geometry Curve data was used as a reference point for the proposed stream channel geometry and grade control structures. As part of the stream repair, stream banks that have been
graded and disturbed will be replanted with live stakes, bare roots, and herbaceous plugs to promote vegetation establishment and restore the overall function of the riparian buffers.
Construction equipment typical of stream repair and utility maintenance projects will be utilized including bulldozers, excavators, graders, cranes, dump trucks, concrete trucks, and
pavers.

Unavoidable permanent impacts to an unnamed tributary (stream S4) will result from the enhancement of the channel and banks, resulting in no loss
of waters. Stream repair and enhancement activities will include the grading of damaged and unstable stream banks to match natural channel
contours, the placement of rip rap and boulder toe protection along the stream banks to provide stabilization, and the construction of riffles within the
stream to establish grade control, facilitate sediment transport, and enhance aquatic species habitat. Stream repair and enhancement activities will be
completed after the proposed sanitary sewer crossing has been installed. Proposed temporary impacts to stream S4 will result from temporary access
to facilitate construction/installation of stream enhancement structures and streambank repair, and for temporary dewatering via pump -around to allow
for work in the dry. No permanent or temporary stream impacts will result from converting the aging, existing aerial sewer crossing to an underground,
perpendicular sewer crossing beneath the stream channel to avoid disturbance to stream S4. All sewer work will be conducted within existing sewer
easement (30' wide) at the stream crossing. The proposed sanitary sewer crossing will be installed within a steel casing pipe and enclosed in a
constructed riffle with a downstream structure set at the same elevation as the top of the sewer casing, so the pipe will be flush with the stream
channel bottom and will not restrict base flow. However, temporary impacts will result from the removal of the existing aerial crossing. This temporarily
impacted area falls within the permanent stream enhancement impacts. Upon completion of the project, temporary impacts will be returned to pre-
existing conditions.

Permanent buffer zone 1 and zone 2 impacts at Site 1 will result from stream enhancement activities including the grading back of stream banks and
the installation of structures to prevent future erosion with the limits of disturbance (LOD). Outside of the LOD, permanent buffer zone 1 and zone 2
impacts at Site 1 will result from a new, permanent City of Durham easement on the western side of stream S4 for current and future access and
maintenance to the stream enhancement project. Temporary buffer impacts at Site 1 to zone 1 and zone 2 along stream S4 will result from the
necessary temporary access to complete the proposed stream enhancement and utility replacement/maintenance. The sewer line replacement will be
conducted within the existing sewer easement (30' wide). Temporarily impacted areas will be returned to pre-existing contours and planted with native
vegetation upon completion of the proposed work.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
la. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
As a result of existing downstream sewer grade constraints and minimum slope requirements, the ability to make significant elevation changes to the
sewer line at the stream crossing is limited, however, the project was designed to minimize impacts to the greatest extent practicable. The proposed
sewer is designed at NCDEQ's state minimum slopes to ensure the pipe is the below the channel and perpendicularly crosses the stream to avoid
disturbance, while still maintaining functionality as a gravity line. Due to the existing sewer grade as well as the existing stream grade and slope, it is
not possible to cover the proposed sewer pipe and casing, so the sewer pipe has been integrated into the design of the constructed riffle. The
proposed sanitary sewer will not protrude into the stream channel and will be protected by the surrounding stream enhancements, which will prevent
future erosion and promote long -tern stability of both sewer infrastructure and stream S4. The sanitary sewer crossing will be installed within a steel
casing pipe to protect the sanitary sewer and stream, which will be enclosed in a constructed riffle with a downstream structure set at the same
elevation as the top of the sewer casing, so it will be flush with the constructed streambed. The proposed sewer crossing will not impede/restrict
baseflow or disrupt the movement of aquatic species through the stream. In addition, the proposed enhancement of stream S4 has been designed to
improve the water quality functions of the streams and the associated floodplain, enhance and protect the natural ecosystem and riparian community,
control and reduce future streambank erosion, promote long-term stability of the crossing, and restore aquatic habitat. Temporary construction and
staging areas for the stream enhancement and sewer line replacement have been located outside of jurisdictional areas to the greatest extent
possible, while still allowing for the necessary access points to construct the project. Additionally, the sanitary sewer maintenance includes the repair
and replacement of an existing sewer line within existing sewer easement, resulting in minimal impacts to riparian buffers.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Impacts to streams and protected riparian buffers within the corridor will be avoided throughout the construction process by equipment, materials, and
access corridors to the greatest extent possible. Where feasible, staging and construction access routes will be located in upland areas throughout
the corridor. Silt fencing will be installed around the limits of disturbance to help ensure that all construction equipment will remain within the project
area throughout the construction process. Sediment control measures will be used to reduce stormwater impacts to receiving waters and minimize
runoff from the construction sites. Pump-arounds or water diversion devices will be installed within the streams to allow for work in the dry. All
temporarily impacted areas will be returned to pre-existing condition and replanted with native vegetation upon completion of construction.
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?
r Yes
6 No
2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why:
The proposed stream enhancement serves to improve the water quality within the watershed and will not result in a loss of water; therefore, no stream mitigation is proposed.
Additionally, in accordance with the Jordan Lake Watershed Buffer Rules, buffer impacts resulting from "Restoration or enhancement" and "Utility, electric, underground, perpendicular
crossings" are considered allowable or exempt buffer impacts and, therefore, do not require mitigation.

streambanks that have been regraded and disturbed will be replanted with live stakes and bare roots, and MI be hand -planted with herbaceous plugs to promote vegetation
establishment, restore the overall function of the riparian buffers, and maintain diffuse flow. Pavement removed is being replaced within its existing footprint, resulting in no addition of
impervious surfaces.

5j. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat?
As of July 17, 2020, the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) lists three endangered species known to occur in Durham County: dwarf wedgemussel
(Alasmidonta heterodon), Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii), and smooth coneflower (Echinacea laevigata). Additionally, five at risk species are
known to occur in Durham County: Carolina madtom (Noturus furiosus), Neuse River waterdog (Necturus lewsi), Atlantic pigtoe (Fusconaia masoni),
green floater (Lasmigona subviridis), and Septima's clubtail (Gomphus septima). Bald eagle is also known to occur in Durham County and is protected
by the Bald and Golden Eagle Protection Act (BGEPA). Potentially suitable habitat for Michaux's sumac and smooth coneflower exists along the
maintained lot edges, sidewalk shoulders, and roadside within the project corridor. Although these areas provide potentially suitable habitat, the
regular mowing maintenance schedule and herbicide application within these areas would likely inhibit the plant's success. Suitable habitat for the
dwarf wedgemussel, Carolina madtom, Neuse River waterdog, Atlantic pigtoe, green floater, and Septima's clubtail is not present within the project
corridor due to the lack of well -oxygenated, high -quality perennial streams with stable banks, gravel substrate, and strong riffle -pool complexes.
Stream S4, which is the only stream that is anticipated to be impacted by the proposed project, is an urban, intermittent stream that has eroded,
unstable banks and is impacted by sediment discharge. Stream S4 is also lacking geomorphology including hydrological in -channel structures, such
as riffle -pool complexes, and grade control. Stream S4 is likely not well -oxygenated due to the lack of these riffle -pool complexes or any variation
within the stream profile and the influence of sedimentation within the stream. A review of the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP)
Element Occurrence Database (updated January 2021) identifies no known current occurrences of any federally listed species in or within 1.0-mile
radius of the project corridor. However, there is one known historical occurrence of the federally endangered smooth coneflower within a 1.0-mile
radius of the project corridor. Due to the lack of suitable habitat, the lack of known occurrences within the project corridor, and the fact that the project
is designed to enhance the overall health, function, and stability of stream S4, it is anticipated that the proposed project will not impact any federally
listed species known to occur in Durham County.

Please give a brief project description below. *
On behalf of our client, the City of Durham, Kimley-Horn is submitting
this pre -filing meeting request for the proposed Lakewood Avenue
Sewer Replacement project. The Project is situated north of
Lakewood Avenue and east of S. Duke Street in the Jordan Lake
Watershed in Durham, Durham County, NC. The area surrounding
the project is largely urban, with scattered undeveloped forested
land, residential housing, and commercial development. The
proposed project plans to replace the undersized 12-inch sanitary
sewer running along Lakewood Avenue between Roxboro Street and
University Drive and restore a section of stream S4 (see Figure 3). It
is anticipated that the project will qualify for authorization under NWP
3 (Maintenance), NWP 58 (Utility Line Activities for Water and Other
Substances), and/or NWP 27 (Aquatic Habitat Restoration,
Enhancement, and Establishment Activities). A Riparian Buffer
Authorization is also anticipated for riparian buffer encroachments.
The existing sanitary sewer line crossing is exposed and restricting
flow within stream S4. Due to the surveyed depths of an adjacent
culvert and the downstream sewer depth constraints, the sewer was
unable to be relocated from the current stream crossing location. The
proposed sewer replacement would perpendicularly cross beneath
the channel of Stream S4 to avoid stream disturbance. As part of the
project, the eroded stream will be restored using natural channel
design after the sanitary sewer line has been installed. The proposed
stream repair will include the grading of damaged and unstable
stream banks to match natural channel contours, the placement of rip
rap and boulder toe protection along the stream banks to provide
stabilization, and the construction of riffles composed of logs and rip
rap within the stream to establish grade control, facilitate sediment
transport, and enhance aquatic species habitat. As part of the stream
repair, vegetated soil lifts will be completed in some areas along the
existing sidewalk to promote vegetation establishment and restore the
overall function of the riparian buffers.
Please give a couple of dates you are available for a meeting.
Please attach the documentation you would like to have the meeting about.
