The property has been developed with both single-family and multi-family residences. Sewer and power easements have been constructed on the site. In the northwest corner of the subdivision lies an emergent riparian wetland. The drainage feature which bisects the wetland is an unnamed tributary (UT) to Chockoyotte Creek. Previously this drainage feature was dammed at the crossing of N.C. 125, and a pond existed on the site. This dam was reportedly breached during Hurricane Isabel in 2003 and the water drained from the pond. An emergent wetland developed in the area of the former pond and the UT to Chockoyotte Creek cut a new drainage feature through the wetland. Roanoke Land Development LLC plans to rebuild the dam and restore the pond within approximately 4.99 acres of the emergent wetland. 2.0 Purpose and Need (Block 19) The purpose and need for this project is to rebuild a dam that was damaged during Hurricane Isabel in 2003 in order to recreate the pond and restore the historic aquatic function of the site. Because it is depicted on the USGS Topographic Map Roanoke Rapids, NC Quadrangle, (Appendix A, Figure 2) the pond has been located on the site since at least 1974. 3.0 Site Description The site is located in the Roanoke River Basin (Hydrologic Unit Code 03010107).Two jurisdictional wetland areas have been delineated on the site. Located on the western boundary of the property there is a 19.486-acre wetland, the northern half of which is an emergent wetland that was once a pond, and the southern half which is a forested wetland area. Another wetland area on the eastern side of the property is 2.014 acres and forested. A drainage feature which runs through the western wetland is a UT to Chockoyotte Creek (Division of Water Quality Stream Index # 23-29; Class C). The jurisdictional determination plat, verifying the locations of these wetlands, was signed by Ms. Jean Manuele of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USAGE) on March 17, 2006. 4.0 Impacts 4.1 Wetland Impacts (Block 20) There will be permanent impacts to 383.5 square feet (0.01 acres) of wetland due to fill from placement of the new dam. There will be permanent impacts to 217,174.3 square feet (4.99 acres) of wetland due to flooding from the reformation of the pond. Some excavation may also take place within the 4.99 acres in order to form the banks of the pond, and to keep the pond contained within those 4.99 acres. Any soil excavated from Section 404/4011ndividual Permit Application Villages at Cross Creek Subdivision, Roanoke Rapids, NC November 9, 2007 ECS Project # 13392-A the pond area will be placed outside of the wetlands. There have been no impacts to wetlands from subdivision construction and there are no plans to impact wetlands by the subdivision in the future. Impervious surface on the site at "build out" will be 13.6% (Attachment C), therefore stormwater controls are not required by North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ). Sewage will be treated by the City of Roanoke Rapids, and homes will be connected to the sewer line that has already been constructed on the site. This project will not have cumulative impacts which would result in additional development that could impact nearby downstream water quality. 4.2 Cultural Resources Historic Resources - Archeology and Architecture A letter was sent to the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) on June 22, 2007 (Appendix B) by ECS regarding any archeological or architectural resources on the site. A response was received via letter dated July 20, 2007 from Ms. Renee Gledhill-Earley requesting an archeological survey in the area of subdivision construction. ECS then emailed Ms. Gledhill-Earley on August 16, 2007 to inform the SHPO that the construction of this subdivision was already complete and that this permit application was simply to replace the dam that had been destroyed during Hurricane Isabel. ECS then received a letter from Ms. Gledhill-Earley, dated August 20, 2007 withdrawing their recommendation for an archeological survey. SHPO did not have any issues concerning architectural resources. Wild and Scenic Rivers This project will not impact any designated Wild and Scenic Rivers. 4.3 Federally Protected Species A review of the North Carolina Natural Heritage Database for the USGS 7.5 Minute Roanoke Rapids, NC Quad revealed no Federally-endangered, threatened, proposed endangered or proposed threatened species. In addition, ECS sent letters to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NHP) on June 22, 2007 (Appendix B). The response from the USFWS, dated July 9, 2007 was that the site does not "appear to have any federally-listed threatened or endangered species, or protected habitat, or species proposed for listing". The response from the NHP, dated June 27, 2007 was that they have "no record of rare species, significant natural communities or significant natural heritage areas at the site nor within a mile of the project." 2 Section 404/4011ndividual Permit Application Villages at Cross Creek Subdivision, Roanoke Rapids, NC November 9, 2007 ECS Project # 13392-A 5.0 Impact .lustification The following alternatives analysis is provided to show that the project impacts are justifiable in the location proposed. Alternative 1 - No Build Alternative 1 would leave the emergent wetland in its current state (Appendix E). This would not meet the project purpose and need of replacing the dam and restoring the pond. In addition, this would not provide for the historical aquatic function of the site. A pond has been on the property since at least 1974 when the USGS Topographical Quad was published. Alternative 2 -Off-Site Pond Alternative 2 would dam a stream or drainage feature and create a pond in another location in Roanoke River Drainage Basin. This would not meet the project purpose and need of restoring the historical aquatic function on the Villages at Cross Creek property. In addition building a dam in another location would likely alter the aquatic function of another feature that has not historically been a pond. It could also impact terrestrial wildlife by removing upland habitat, and Alternative 3 - On-Site Pond (Preferred Alternative) Alternative 3 would replace the dam on the subject property that was breached during Hurricane Isabel in 2003, thereby restoring the pond that has been located on the property since at least 1974. This will also restore the historical aquatic function that has been present on the site in the past. This is the only alternative that meets the project purpose and need. 6.0 Mitigation Roanoke Land Development, LLC is purchasing all compensatory mitigation via the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program's In-lieu Fee Process. The acceptance letter can be found in Attachment B.

Please note that this decision does not assure that the payment will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts. It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact these agencies to determine if payment to the NCEEP will be approved. This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not received a copy of the issued 404 Permit/401 Certification/CAMA permit within this time frame, this acceptance will expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to NCEEP. Once NCEEP receives a copy of the permit(s) an invoice will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must be made prior to conducting the authorized work. The amount of the In Lieu Fee to be paid to NCEEP by an applicant is calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and policies listed at www.nceep.net. Based on the information supplied by you the impacts that may require compensatory mitigation are summarized in the following table. Roanoke 03010107 Stream (feet) Wetlands (acres) Buffer I (Sq. Ft.) Buffer II (Sq. Ft.) Cold Cool Warm Ri azian Non-Ri azian Coastal Marsh Impacts 0 0 833 5.0 0 0 0 0 Credits 0 0 1,666 10 0 0 0 0 Upon receipt of payment, EEP will take responsibility for providing the compensatory mitigation. If the regulatory agencies require mitigation credits greater than indicated above, and the applicant wants NCEEP to be responsible for the additional mitigation, the applicant will need to submit a mitigation request to NCEEP for approval prior to permit issuance. The mitigation will be performed in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding between the N. C. Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the U. S. Arrny Corps of Engineers dated November 4, t998. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Kelly Williams at (919) 716-1921.

The Villages at Cross Creek, Highway 125 & SR 1686, Roanoke Rapids, Halifax County, LR 07-103 Dear Ms. Tucker and Ms. Breen: Thank you for your letter of June 22, 2007, concerning the above project. ~X/e have determined that the project as proposed will not affect any historic structures. Based on the topographic and hydrological situation of the project area, there is a high probability that prehistoric archaeological sites exist in the overall development area. Depending on the historic use of the land, historic-period sites may exist as well. We note several structures on the topographic map (our copy dated 1974) that may have associated-or themselves now be-archaeological sites. While the wetlands crossings typically covered under a permit application probably will not affect significant archaeological resources, subsequent construction of the proposed subdivision may. We, therefore, recommend that an archaeological survey be conducted across the overall project area to identify and evaluate potentially significant sites prior to inltiaaon of the subdivision facilities (e.g., roads, utiliues). If significant sites are identitled, appropriate measure can then be taken to minimize adverse impacts. We will be pleased to assist you in the development and review of any scopes of work, proposals, or other documents relating to this matter. Two copies of the resulting archaeolo},ncal survey repott, as wdl as one copy of the appropriate site Forms, should be forwarded a> us for review and comment as soon as they are available and well in advance of any construction activities. A list of archaeological consultants who have conducted or expressed an interest in contract work in North Carolina is available at wwly.arch.der.srlte.ne.us/cr>rlsults. The archaeologists listed, or any other experienced archaeologist, may be cc,nricted to conduct the recommended survev. The ahove comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the Adrisory C<~uncil un }Iistoric Preservation's Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 coc}ified at 36 CFR Part 8C-U.

Although our maps do not show records of such natural heritage elements in the project area, it does not necessarily mean that they are not present. It may simply mean that the area has not been surveyed. The use of Natural Heritage Program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys, particularly if the project area contains suitable habitat for rare species, significant natural communities, or priority natural areas. You may wish to check the Natural Heritage Program database website at www.ncnhp.org for a listing of rare plants and animals and significant natural communities in the county and on the quad map. NC OneMap now provides digital Natural Heritage data online for free. This service provides site specific information on GIS layers with Natural Heritage Program rare species occurrences and Significant Natural Heritage Areas. The NC OneMap website provides Element Occurrence (EO) ID numbers (instead of species name), and the data user is then encouraged to contact the Nahrral Heritage Program for detailed information. This service allows the user to quickly and efficiently get site specific NHP data without visiting the NHP workroom or waiting for the information Request to be answered by NHP staff. For more information about data formats and access, visit <www.nconemap.com/data.html>, or email NC OneMap at <dataq(~~ncmail.net>.
