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 site is cleared and vacant except for the wooded existing wetlands on the south border of the property. The property is surrounded by wooded land to the south, NC Highway 58 to the
west, and a future 20-lot commercial subdivision to the north (currently cleared and vacant).
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:
1.11 ac
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
N/A
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
The project is proposed as a combination high -density and low -density development of a 3-lot commercial subdivision, three soccer fields, a medical office, concession stands, an indoor
gym, a bathhouse, and other supporting parking/infrastructure.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:
The 3 proposed commercial lots will border Highway 58 and share access to the highway with the neighboring north commercial subdivision. There are wetlands present on the site and
there are 0.46 acres of 404 wetlands impacts proposed within this development. The low -density portion of the development ("sports complex") will divert runoff from the impervious area of
the development through a proposed ditch north of the soccer fields to the large ditch constructed by Dirt2Dreams that ties to the existing ditch on the Humphries property to the east.
There is an access road that is shared with the property owner to the north and is in a combined access and drainage easement. The impervious area within this drainage easement flows
to a "Pond B" on the northern property under Stormwater Permit #: SW823069.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations
5a. Have the wetlands or streams been delineated on the property or proposed impact areas?*
Yes No O Unknown

2i. Comments:
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:
The sports complex location was chosen to minimize and impacts to the existing wetlands on the south border of the property and to minimize any
grading.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Silt fencing will be used to ensure that off -site sedimentation is controlled during construction, a skimmer basin will be constructed to collect sediment
laden flow and will be mucked out and converted to a wet pond once construction is complete. Stone construction entrances will be used to reduce
sediment transportation from the site. All disturbed areas will be seeded within 7 days following 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?
Yes No
2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why:
N/A
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
la. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?
Yes No
What type of SCM are you providing?
Level Spreader
Vegetated Conveyance (lower SHWT)
Wetland Swale (higher SHWT)
Other SCM that removes minimum 30 % nitrogen
Proposed project will not create concentrated stormwater flow through the buffer
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 combination high- and low -density development. The sports complex is less than 12 % impervious coverage and the three commercial tracts have a proposed 85
maximum allowable impervious coverage and will drain to an off -site pond.
