Re: Knightdale Station Sewer Outfall D - Knightdale, Wake County
Buffer Authorization Request
Dear Mr. Ms. Higgins,
On behalf of Knightdale Investors, LLC we are requesting Buffer Compliance from the NC-DWR
for 1,657 sq ft of permanent impacts to Neuse River riparian buffers for construction of a gravity
sewer line which will service future Phase R4 of the Knightdale Station subdivision.
The proposed project is located within the Knightdale Station subdivision, located south of
Knightdale Blvd, north of Massey Farm Road and west of Marks Creek Road in Knightdale, Wake
County. The site drains to Marks Creek (Stream Index: 27-38; Classification: C;NSW), which is in
the Neuse River Basin (HUC: 03020201).
Project Purpose
The purpose of the proposed project is to construct a gravitysewer line which will provide service
to the future Phase R4 of the Knightdale Station subdivision.
Proposed Project
The proposed project consists of the construction of 2,779 If of gravity sewer line which will service
the future Phase R4 within the Knightdale Station subdivision. The western end of the sewer line
will begin within Phase R4 (Lat: 35.8023°N; Long: -78.4677°W) and flow east, where it will tie into
to the previously permitted Outfall C sewer line (Lat: 35.8029°N; Long: -78.4677°W), which flows
to a pumpstation in the northeastern corner of the Knightdale Station subdivision, ultimately
flowing to the Neuse River WWTP for treatment. The proposed sewer line will be located within a
30' City of Raleigh easement, and all 30' will be mowed/maintained in perpetuity.
Project History
The proposed Outfall D sewer line will connect to the previously permitted Outfall C sewer line,
which was issued a Buffer Authorization on 09/14/15 (DWR Proj #15-0736 v2).
NCDWR issued a Buffer Determination letter for the Knightdale Station subdivision on May 2011
2014 (NBRRO #12-135) to include an offsite feature previously omitted. A copy of the Buffer
Determination letters have been provided as an Appendix.

David Shaeffer with the Corps of Engineers issued a Preliminary JD for the entire Knightdale
Station subdivision (AID SAW -2015-01553), which has been provided as an Appendix.
Proposed Impacts
The proposed impacts consist of 1,657 sq ft of permanent impacts to Zone 2 of the riparian buffers
for the construction the proposed sewer line.
Please note that there are no wetland or stream crossings associated with the proposed Outfall D
sewer line. Therefore, there are no impacts requiring 404/401 authorization.
Avoidance and Minimization
The proposed sewer line has been designed to avoid impacts to riparian buffers where possible. The
sewer line will service future phase R4 of the Knightdale Station subdivision, and the sewer line will
be running along the back of future residential lots for the most part. The sewer alignment has
minimized buffer impacts as much as possible, while allowing for adequate area to build a house
within the future lots in order to prevent construction issues once the future residential phases of
the subdivision are constructed. Additionally, the buffer impacts for the construction of the sewer
have been limited to Zone 2. All proposed buffer impacts are classified as "Allowable" in the NRRB
rules' Table of Uses.
Mitigation
Because the proposed buffer impacts are classified as "Allowable" in the NRRB Table of Uses, no
mitigation is required.
The current request is for 1,657 sq ft of permanent impacts to Neuse River riparian buffers (see
the attached maps and PCN for details).
Please feel free to call if you have questions or require additional information.
Sincerely,
Troy Beasley
Environmental Scientist

"Feature Q determined an ephemeral channel on March 14, 2014 all other features evaluated June 8, 2012.
Explanation: The feature(s) listed above has or have been located on the Soil Survey of Wake County, North
Carolina or the most recent copy of the USGS Topographic map at a 1:24,000 scale. Each feature that is checked
"Not Subject" has been determined not to be a stream or is not present on the property. Features that are checked
"Subject" have been located on the property and possess characteristics that qualify it to be a stream. There may be
other streams located on your property that do not show up on the maps referenced above but, still may be
considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and/or to the Division of Water Resources
(DWR)_
This on-site determination shall expire five (5) years from the date of this letter. Landowners or affected parties that
dispute a determination made by the DWR or Delegated Local Authority may request a determination by the
Director. An appeal request must be made within sixty (60) days of date of this letter or from the date the affected
party (including downstream and/or adjacent owners) is notified of this letter. A request for a determination by the
Director shall be referred to the Director in writing c/o Karen Higgins, DWR WeBSCaPe Unit, 1650 Mail Service
Center, Raleigh, NC 27699.
This determination is final and binding unless, as detailed above, you ask for a hearing or appeal within sixty (60)

E. REVIEW PERFORMED FOR SITE EVALUATION (CHECK ALL THAT APPLIES):
® Office (Desk) Determination. Date: 10/15/2015
❑ Field Determination. Date(s):
1. The Corps of Engineers believes that there maybe jurisdictional waters of the United States on the subject site, and the permit
applicant or other affected party who requested this preliminary JD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an
approved jurisdictional determination (JD) for that site. Nevertheless, the permit applicant or other person who requested this
preliminary JD has declined to exercise the option to obtain an approved JD in this instance and at this time.
2. In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other
general permit verification requiring "pre -construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non -reporting NWP or
other general permit, and [lie permit applicant has not requested an approved JD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby
made aware of the following: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a preliminary JD, which
does not make an official determination of jurisdictional waters; (2) that the applicant has the option to request an approved JD
before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an approved JD
could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) that the applicant has the
right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms and conditions of the NWP or other general permit
authorization; (4) that the applicant can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and
conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5) that
undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting an approved JD constitutes the
applicant's acceptance of the use of the preliminary JD, but that either form of JD will be processed as soon as is practicable;
(6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any
form of Corps permit authorization based on a preliminary JD constitutes agreement that all wetlands and other water bodies on
the site affected in any way by that activity arejurisdictional waters of the United States, and precludes any challenge to such
jurisdiction in any administrative orjudicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal
court; and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an approved JD or a preliminary JD, that JD will be processed as soon as
is practicable. Further, an approved JD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or
individual permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331, and that in any administrative appeal,
jurisdictional issues can be raised (see 33 C.F.R. 331.5(a)(2)). If, during that administrative appeal, .it becomes necessary to make

an official determination whether CWA jurisdiction exists over a site, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional waters
on the site, the Corps will provide an approved JD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable.
This preliminary JD finds that there "may be" waters of the United States on the subject project site, and identifies all aquatic
features on the site that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information:
SUPPORTING DATA. Data reviewed for preliminary JD (check all that apply - checked items should be included in case
file and, where checked and requested, appropriately reference sources below):
