River basin: Neuse River 3. Project Description 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: Existing conditions is currently woodland and stream basin. This section of the property is currently unused. Surrounding the area of interest currently is 2 parking lots and some roadway in a industrial area. 3b. Attach an 8'/2 x 11 excerpt from the most recent version of -the USGS topographic map indicating the location of the site 3c. Attach an 8' /z x 11 excerpt from the most recent version of the published County NRCS Soil Survey Map depicting the project site 3d. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property: 1500' 3e. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: The purpose of the project is to provide an on -site walking trail /greenway for employees. Currently employees walk or run on the roadways which possess a safety risk to employees. Novo Nordisk would like to provide a safer alternative. 3f. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: Phase 1: Establish a clear path for the trail. A 10' trail will be cut through the wooded area as shown on the included drawing. The path on the drawing will be followed as closely as possible but will take a minimal impact approach as to detour around the larger trees in the area. A Bobcat/skid steer type machine with a forestry cutter will be utilized for path clearing; the material will be chipped /shredded and left in place. All deadfall encountered along the way will also be chipped /shredded. Phase 2: Once the path is cleared of all trees, and undergrowth the path will be graded to be acceptable for walking /running purposes. Once the grading is complete a geotextile fabric or equivalent will be placed on the ground to stabilize the path and prepare it for the top layer. A 4 -6" compacted layer of ABC stone will be utilized as the top layer. For this process dump trucks will be utilized where possible to haul the ABC stone with bulldozers and skid steers spreading the material. In areas that are difficult to access bulldozers will complete both tasks of hauling and spreading the ABC stone. Phase 3: The final phase is bridge construction through the riparian buffer. The bridge will be a wooden plank bridge built on top of treated pilings. Pilings will be driven into the ground —10' to anchor the bridge. Pilings in the riparian buffer will be minimized as much as possible and will not be placed in the creek bed. Currently the bridge is planned to span 75' linear feet and be 8' wide. Pictures attached to this application show what the appearance of the bridge will be once completed. A specialized piece of equipment will be utilized in this phase to drive the piling in the ground.

The map unit descriptions, along with the maps, can be used to determine the oomposition and properties of a unit A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class. Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils. Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and miscellaneous areas on the landscape. 10 Custom Soil Resource Report The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or landfonn segments that have similar use and management requirements. The delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however, onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas. An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions. Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil properties and qualities. Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement. Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness, salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series. Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas. These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups. A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps. The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar in all areas. Alpha -Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example. An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar. Alpha - Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example. An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example. Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example. 11 Custom Soil Resource Report Johnston County, North Carolina CoB— Cowarts loamy sand, 2 to 6 percent slopes Map Unit Setting Landscape: Coastal plains Elevation: 80 to 330 feet Mean annual precipitation: 38 to 55 inches Mean annual air temperature: 59 to 70 degrees F Frost-free period: 210 to 265 days Map Unit Composition Cowarts and similar soils: 80 percent Description of Cowarts Setting Landform: Ridges on marine terraces Landform position (two- dimensional): Shoulder, summit Landfonn position (three - dimensional): Crest Down -slope shape: Convex Across-slope shape: Convex Parent material: Loamy and sandy marine deposits Properties and qualities Slope: 2 to 6 percent Depth to restrictive feature: More than 80 inches Drainage class: Well drained Capacity of the most limiting layer to transmit water (Ksat): Very low to moderately high (0.00 to 0.57 irdhr) Depth to water table: More than 80 inches Frequency of flooding: None Frequency of ponding: None Available water capacity: Moderate (about 7.2 inches) Interpretive groups Farmland classification: Not prime farmland Land capability (nonirrigated): 2e Hydrologic Soil Group: C Typical profile 0 to 6 inches: Loamy sand 6 to 34 inches: Sandy clay loam 34 to 80 inches.
