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: *
Two undersized corrugated metal culvert crossings under Parview Drive South are in need of replacement. Erosion around the downstream culvert has led to significant embankment
erosion that has caused unsafe conditions where the road surface has begun to fail and fall into the stream. The project is located in a densely populated neighborhood of single-family
houses adjacent to a golf course. Habitat present within the project area primarily consists of maintained road areas bordered by partially maintained open wooded areas dominated by
invasive species and planted ornamental species.

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:
0
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
98
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
Erosion around the downstream culvert has led to significant embankment erosion that has caused unsafe conditions where the road surface has begun to fail and fall into the stream.
Because of adjacent topography and the culvert invert elevations, CSWS determined that replacement of both of these failed culverts with a new combined pipe system involving culverting
a small section of open channel was necessary to prevent further damage to the embankments and to avoid potential washouts of the street in the future.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used: *
The two corrugated metal culverts will be removed and replace with four sections of 36" reinforced concrete pipe joined at drop inlets. Road embankment slopes will be filled and the
ground surface will be filled to meet the inlet elevation of the new drop inlet in the section of the current channel that is being buried. Embankments will be matted and seeded. A pump
around will be installed at the upstream end of the existing upstream culvert so that work can be conducted in the dry. Work will be conducted with standard construction equipment.
5. Jurisdictional Determinations
5a. Have the wetlands or streams been delineated on the property or proposed impact areas?*
Yes No O Unknown

6. Future Project Plans
6a. Is this a phased project?*
Yes No
Are any other NWP(s), regional general permit(s), or individual permits(s) used, or intended to be used, to authorize any part of the proposed project or related activity?
No additional permits will be used in conjunction with this project. The permitted status of recent stream piping work conducted immediately downstream of the project area is unknown;
This PCN has been prepared under the assumption that this work is either temporary or unpermitted; impacts associated with this PCN are based on site conditions prior to this
downstream piping.

E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
The project was designed to reduce flood and erosion risk while minimizing the disturbance to adjacent areas. Culverting of open channel was limited to
only one small area of channel with minimal functional habitat value. Construction of a pipe system that involved fill of this section of channel was only
considered once it was determined that replacing the existing culverts individually in a manner that protects the roadway would require the construction
of an extensive retaining wall and headwall that would be cost prohibitive and still result in significant impacts to this small portion of channel. The riprap
dissipator apron was limited to the minimum extent necessary to meet design standards and is located in an area that is already impacted by riprap and
recent fill from the downstream landowner. Culverting of open channel was limited to only one small area of riprap filled channel with little to no functional
habitat value.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
During construction, appropriate sediment and erosion control practices equaling those outlined in the most recent version of the "North Carolina
Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual" will be used to minimize impacts to the stream. Temporary coffer dams and a pump around
will be used so that work will occur "in -the -dry", and the pump around has been designed to minimize impact to adjacent areas. Tree protection will be
used to avoid impacts to trees that are not required to be cut within the project area.
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:
Impacts are below typical thresholds requiring mitigation.
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
1a. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?

Project is not in basin with buffer protections
2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOT's Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?
