7. Name of nearest receiving body of water: Kraut/ Boone Creek
8. River Basin: New River
(Note -this must be one of North Carolina's seventeen designated major river basins. The
River Basin map is available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/admin/maps/.)
9. Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project
at the time of this application: Predominant land uses within the watershed include the
downtown business district, low and medium density residential, with some forested lands
(see Drainage Area Map). The project reach is located in the downtown business district.
10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The
Kraut/Boone Creek Bank Enhancement project (Kraut Creek) is intended to enhance 185
linear feet of this Class-C, Trout waterbody The goal of the project is to stabilize erosive
streambanks and install riparian pocket wetlands intended to moderate floodwaters in this
urban watershed.
Currentlyproject reach is vertically and laterally unstable. Proposed stabilization
methods include (but are not limited to): rock vanes, rock buttress(s), installation of
riparian pocket wetlands, and floodplain connectivity.
This Kraut Creek reach has portions with high-terrace banks. The majority of the erosion is
notably taking_place in these high-bank areas, occurring in outer bends of the stream. The
stream then appears to be depositing material in the inner bends, creating sand/~ravel bar(s).
Much of the river right portion of the project exists as an ASU student asphalt,parking lot.
The parking area and the stream are currently separated by a wood fence which will be
removed. Approximately 3300 square feet of asphalt will be removed from the ASU parking
lot and this immediate floodplain area will be graded to include lowland-pocket wetland
features. These frequently flooded wetland areas will be enhanced by the addition of
facultative - obli atg a vegetation. A 40 foot wide riparian buffer will be established in this
area and remain un-touched/mowed following_project construction, allowing native tree,
shrub, herb/ rg_ass species to thrive.
Page 7 of 14

Proposed excavation equipment includes: hydraulic thumb trac-hoe, and tandem axle dump
trucks . Being_ that Kraut Creek being is classified a Trout waterway, construction is
proposed to commence after April 15, 2008 and outside of the Trout moratorium.
11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The purpose of the proposed work is to stabilize
Kraut Creek as it flows along/between the Subject Properties. The project will add rg een
space to downtown Boone and is the first of man proposed projects intended to enhance the
watershed, the natural beauty of the town, and the Appalachian State University campus.
IV. Prior Project History
If jurisdictional determinations and/or permits have been requested and/or obtained for this
project (including all prior phases of the same subdivision) in the past, please explain. Include
the USACE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and
certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits,
certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and
buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project,
list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.LP. project, along with
construction schedules. N/A
V. Future Project Plans
Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work,
and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application.
Future Kraut Creek enhancement/restoration projects will follow along the ASU campus area,
pending future Clean Water Management Trust Fund rg ant approval.
VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be
listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from
riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts,
permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an
accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial)
should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems.
Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate.
Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for
wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional
space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: The Kraut Creek Enhancement
project Kraut Creek) will impact 1851inear feet of this Class-C, Trout waterbod~through
the installation of natural channel design measures. Proposed stabilization methods include
(but are not limited tol the installation of rock vanes, rock buttress(s~parian pocket
wetlands, and bankfull bench(es)/floodplain connectivity
Page 8 of 14

Much of the river right portion of the project exists as an ASU student asphalt parking lot.
The parkingarea and the stream are currentl~eparated by a wood fence which will be
removed Approximately 3300 square feet of asphalt will be removed from the ASU parking
lot and this immediate floodplain area will be graded to include lowland-pocket wetland
features These frequently flooded wetland areas will be enhanced by the addition of obligate
- facultative ve-g~etation. A 40 foot wide riparian buffer will be allowed to grow in this area
and remain un-touched/mowed following_project implementation, allowing`native tree,
shrub, herb/ rg ass species to thrive.
Once site construction within an area has ceased all disturbed buffer areas will be
immediately_seeded (temporary -annual ryegrass), matted (EC coconut matting), and
stabilized the same day. Following completion of restoration activities the banks of the
restored channel will be seeded with a native floodplain mix (permanent seed). Live stakes
and matting staples will be used to secure the EC fabric/sod-matting in these hi hg stress
areas Broadcast seeding rates will be as specified from the local nursery eg nerally 15-20
lbs/acre depending on ~ecies Native grass herb and shrub species will be planted
throughout the project reach at a rate of 320 stems/acre securing near bank areas and
providingfuture shading~to the channel. Existing woody_vegetation will be preserved to
minimize project impacts.
Precautions will be taken to keep heave equipment out of the stream channel except where
absolutely necessary to install bank stabilization/enhancement measures. Work will be
conducted in the dry to the extent practicable.

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. The proposed work and
associated impacts are intended to stabilize and enhance the Kraut/Boone Creek Project Reach
with minimal stream impacts. All heavesequipment will be kept out of the stream channel during
project construction except where absolutely necessary to install bank stabilization measures.
Disturbance of channel bottom and banks and equipment access areas shall be held to the
minimum necessar~to allow for bank stabilization sufficient to restore the hydraulic capacity of
the stream channel. All disturbed buffer areas will be immediately seeded (temporary -annual
rye~rass) matted (coconut/coir matting), and stabilized at the close of each construction day.
Following construction the banks of the restored channel will be seeded with a native floodplain
mix permanent seed). Live stakes and matting staples will be used to secure the EC fabric/sod-
matting in these high stress areas.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
Page 11 of 14

and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's

The lower rock Chead rock) footer will first be placed followed by the head rock to set the initial
structure elevation, The subsequent rock Cmoving upstream) and associated footers will then be set
sighting the proposed 20-30degree bank deflection line, Rock placement follows moving upstream at
a 2-7% slope until a bankfuU elevation is reached at the end of the structure wing, A rock sill
will then be constructed perpendicular to the structure angle to prevent the formation of a
cutoff channel A trench shall be dug upstream on the bankside of the wing where non-woven
geotextlle fabric will be placed with approx. 2' of overlap; the trench will then be backfilled
