Re: Pre - Construction Notification — 401 Water Quality Certification and Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Authorization Wake Technical Community College - Main Campus - Parking Lot/Repaving Projects — Temporary Construction Access Wake County, North Carolina WCC -14000 Dear Ms. Higgins: On behalf of Wake Technical Community College, we are applying for a 401 Water Quality Certification and Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Authorization for temporary stream impacts and impacts to Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the Neuse Buffer associated with the proposed construction of a temporary construction access path crossing the unnamed tributary to Mills Branch that separates Parking Lots S and P to permit safe construction access and working conditions as improvements are being completed to Parking Lot S and Parking Lot P. The project site is located within the Neuse River Basin (HUC 03020201) and the unnamed tributary to Mills Branch has a NCDWR Water Quality Classification of Class C and Nutrient Sensitive Waters. Construction activities associated with the previously authorized improvements to Parking Lots S and P have begun and classes at the campus are in session. Therefore, we are hoping authorization of the proposed activities can be acquired as expeditiously as possible. At this time, we are requesting that the proposed construction of a temporary construction access path be authorized under General Certification 3893 (Temporary construction, access and dewatering) and be provided an Authorization Certificate per the Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Rules.

Based on the delineation, the Wake Technical Community College main campus contains unnamed tributaries to Mills Branch, which discharge into the Neuse River (HUC 03020201). The unnamed tributaries to Mills Branch have a NCDWR Water Quality Classification of Class C and Nutrient Sensitive Waters. The main campus contains a total of 2,704 linear feet of perennial and intermittent jurisdictional streams. No jurisdictional wetlands were identified on the main campus. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers conducted a jurisdictional wetland /stream field determination on November 20, 2014 (SAW- 2014- 02128); however, the Jurisdictional Determination Plat has not been signed yet. Based on the delineation, there are stream features located on the main campus that are subject to the Neuse River Buffer Rules. NCDWR conducted a field determination on November 5, 2014, and on November 19, 2014 provided a Neuse Buffer Determination (NBRRO #14 -402, attached). PROJECT LOCATION /HABITAT: The areas are termed as Parking Lot S (PIN Number: 0689804752) and Parking Lot P (PIN Number: 0689708713). Parking Lot S is an existing gravel parking area located on the east side of the main campus. Parking Lot P is an existing gravel parking area located on the southwest side of the main campus. Approximately 80 percent of Parking Lot P contains forested areas. Parking Lots S and P are separated by an unnamed tributary to Mills Branch and associated forested areas. WCC -14000 Ms. Karen Higgins Wake Technical Community College - Main Campus Parking Lot /Repaving Projects — Temporary Construction Access September 1, 2015 Page 3 of 5 The riparian buffer is mostly forested and consists of mainly loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) and oak species (Quercus sp.), in addition to red maple (Acer rubrum) and tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera) with an understory of Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) and greenbriar (Smilax rotundifolia). The project site contains an unnamed tributary to Mills Branch, which discharges into the Neuse River (HUC 03020201). The unnamed tributary to Mills Branch has a NCDWR Water Quality Classification of Class C and Nutrient Sensitive Waters. No jurisdictional wetlands were identified on the main campus. Stream features "A" (perennial) and "D" (intermittent) are subject to the Neuse River Buffer Rules. Land use within the vicinity of the project site is a mix of institutional, multi- family, light industrial- office, railroad, and forested areas. PROPOSED PROJECT /IMPACTS: During the month of March, 2015, Wake Technical Community College applied for a Neuse River Riparian Buffer Authorization for permanent impacts to Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the Neuse Buffer associated with the proposed improvements to the parking lot located within the main campus and repaving of Parking Lots S and P, construction of stormwater management facilities, construction of a new wooden pedestrian bridge connecting Parking Lot S to Parking Lot P, and the establishment of a 20 foot permanently maintained sanitary sewer easement. Authorization from DWR to proceed with the proposed activities was received on May 21, 2015 (attached DWR # 15- 0321). Classes are currently in session as construction activities for the authorized activities are being performed. As a result, construction equipment and vehicles are forced to travel the entire length of Parking Lots S and P in order to conduct the authorized construction activities. This leads to safety issues and concerns with students attending Wake Technical Community College. Therefore, Wake Technical Community College proposes constructing a temporary construction access path crossing the unnamed tributary to Mills Branch that separates between Parking Lots S and P to permit safe construction access and working conditions as the previously authorized improvements are being completed. Following completion of construction activities, the temporary construction access path will be removed in its entirety to an area that has no waters of the U.S. and the affected area will be restored to pre - construction elevations. WCC -14000 Ms. Karen Higgins Wake Technical Community College - Main Campus Parking Lot /Repaving Projects — Temporary Construction Access September 1, 2015 Page 4 of 5 TOTAL TEMPORARY STREAMIMPACTS: F— Stream Impact Temporary Stream Impacts (culvert &dissipator pad) Total Stream Impacts TOTAL NE USE BUFFER IMPACTS: Buffer Impact Type Temporary Construction Access Path TOTAL Zone 1 impact (square feet) 3,158 3,158 Impacts 78 linear feet 78 linear feet Zone 2 impact (square feet) 1,273 1,273 AVOIDANCE and MINIMIZATION: Proposed impacts to jurisdictional streams and wetlands have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent practicable for the proposed activities. School is currently in session as construction activities for the previous authorized activities are being performed (previous authorized activities described in attached DWR # 15- 0321, May 21, 2015). As a result, construction equipment and vehicles are forced to travel the entire length of Parking Lots S and P in order to conduct the previously authorized construction activities. This leads to safety issues and concerns with students attending Wake Technical Community College. Therefore, avoiding impacts to the unnamed tributary to Mills Branch is not feasible due to safety concerns associated with the current school session. Additional alternative locations alignments were examined for the temporary construction access path. However, it was determined that these additional locations either impacted more stream or more riparian buffers. The proposed location of the temporary construction access path impacts the least amount of stream and riparian buffers in addition to providing the needed ease of construction access to conduct the previously authorized activities. DIFFUSE FLOW: Proper sedimentation and erosion control methods will be utilized during construction in accordance with the NC Division of Land Quality and City of Raleigh guidelines. All work will take place during dry conditions and can be facilitated from high, non - jurisdictional, stable ground. The contractor shall install silt fence, inlet protection, sediment traps, diversion ditches, tree protection, clearing only as necessary to install devices. All erosion and sediment control measures will be checked for stability and WCC -14000 Ms. Karen Higgins Wake Technical Community College - Main Campus Parking Lot /Repaving Projects — Temporary Construction Access September 1, 2015 Page 5 of 5 operation following every runoff producing rainfall, but in no case less than once every week. Any needed repairs will be made immediately to maintain all measures designed. An erosion control inspections report is required and will be kept by the owner's representative. Temporary seeding and permanent seeding plans are included to restore impacted areas STORMWATER MANAGEMENT: The proposed temporary construction access path is required to permit safe construction access and working conditions as the previously authorized improvements are being completed. The previously authorized improvements associated with the issued Authorization Certificate per the Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Protection Rules (attached DWR # 15 -0321; May 21, 2015) contained stormwater management facilities per the Wake County Design Tool which include a stormwater wetland, wet pond, level spreaders, and vegetative filter strips. Wake County has approved the stormwater management plan (see attached SWCPA; Project number S -4185 & 5 -3211; Approval Date May 27, 2015). MITIGATION: All buffer impacts are deemed "Allowable" under the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules — 'Table of Uses. Therefore, no riparian buffer mitigation is proposed. All stream impacts are temporary in nature. Following completion of construction activities, the temporary construction access path will be removed in its entirety to an area that has no waters of the U.S. and the affected area will be restored to pre - construction elevations. Therefore, no stream mitigation is proposed. Consideration of this project is greatly appreciated.

Project Description 0689804752;0689708713 Longitude: - 78.703737 Temporary Construction Access path project is approximately 0.1 acre in size Mills Branch C; NSW Neuse; HUC 03020201 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: Improvements to Parking Lot S (PIN Number 0689804752) and Parking Lot P (PIN Number 0689708713) are currently ongoing and under construction. Parking Lots S and P are separated by an unnamed tributary to Mills Branch and associated forested areas. 3b List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property: 0 3c List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property: There are a total of 2,704 linear feet of jurisdictional streams located at the Wake Technical Community College — Main campus. 3d Explain the purpose of the proposed project: The purpose of the project is to construct a temporary construction access path crossing the unnamed tributary to Mills Branch that separates Parking Lots S and P to permit safe construction access and working conditions as improvements are being completed to Parking Lot S and Parking Lot P. 3e Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: During the month of March, 2015, Wake Technical Community College applied for a Neuse River Riparian Buffer Authorization for permanent impacts to Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the Neuse Buffer associated with the proposed improvements to the parking lot located within the main campus and repaving of Parking Lots S and P, construction of stormwater management facilities, construction of a new wooden pedestrian bridge connecting Parking Lot S to Parking Lot P, and the establishment of a 20 foot permanently maintained sanitary sewer easement. Authorization from DWR to proceed with the proposed activities was received on May 21, 2015 (attached DWR # 15- 0321). Classes are currently in session as construction activities for the authorized activities are being performed. As a result, construction equipment and vehicles are forced to travel the entire length of Parking Lots S and P in order to conduct the authorized construction activities. This leads to safety issues and concerns with students attending Wake Technical Community College. Therefore, Wake Technical Community College proposes constructing a temporary construction access path crossing the unnamed tributary to Mills Branch that separates between Parking Lots S and P to permit safe construction access and working conditions as the previously authorized improvements are being completed. Following completion of construction activities, the temporary construction access path will be removed in its entirety to an area that has no waters of the U.S. and the affected area will be restored to pre- construction elevations. Typical construction equipment will be used for Phase I, such as a front end loaders, bulldozers, and paving equipment. 4.

Comments: Once the authorized construction activities associated with the issued Authorization Certificate per the Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Protection Rules (DWR # 15 -0321; May 21, 2015) have been completed, the temporary construction access path will be removed and the vegetation will be restored. Page 5 of 10 D. Impact Justification and Mitigation 1. Avoidance and Minimization 1 a Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. Proposed impacts to jurisdictional streams and wetlands have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent practicable for the proposed activities. School is currently in session as construction activities for the previous authorized activities are being performed (previous authorized activities described in attached DWR # 15 -0321, May 21, 2015). As a result, construction equipment and vehicles are forced to travel the entire length of Parking Lots S and P in order to conduct the previously authorized construction activities. This leads to safety issues and concerns with students attending Wake Technical Community College. Therefore, avoiding impacts to the unnamed tributary to Mills Branch is not feasible due to safety concerns associated with the current school session. Additional alternative locations alignments were examined for the temporary construction access path. However, it was determined that these additional locations either impacted more stream or more riparian buffers. The proposed location of the temporary construction access path impacts the least amount of stream and riparian buffers in addition to providing the needed ease of construction access to conduct the previously authorized activities. 1 b Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. Proper sedimentation and erosion control methods will be utilized during construction in accordance with the NC Division of Land Quality and City of Raleigh guidelines. All work will take place during dry conditions and can be facilitated from high, non - jurisdictional, stable ground. The contractor shall install silt fence, inlet protection, sediment traps, diversion ditches, tree protection, clearing only as necessary to install devices. All erosion and sediment control measures will be checked for stability and operation following every runoff producing rainfall, but in no case less than once every week. Any needed repairs will be made immediately to maintain all measures designed. An erosion control inspections report is required and will be kept by the owner's representative. Temporary seeding and permanent seeding plans are included to restore impacted areas. 2.
