Re: 401 & Buffer Permit DWR # 15-0417 Modification Request
Eco -Energy Ethanol Terminal Project Selma, NC
Dear Ms. Higgins:
GEI Consultants, Inc. has been retained by Chambers Engineering, PA (CEPA) to assist with the
environmental permitting process for the proposed Eco -Energy Ethanol Terminal located at 1501
West Oak Street in Selma, North Carolina.
This project was issued a 401 Water Quality Certification and Authorization Certificate per the
Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Protection Rules on August 11, 2015.
The project team recently received comments from Norfolk Southern Railway regarding the
proposed extension rail line off their existing main line to the terminal rail yard. Norfolk
Southern requested a track realignment which requires a slight modification in the stream and
wetland impact areas. Additional retaining walls have been incorporated to minimize impacts.
This redesign ultimately results in a 0.0033 acre reduction of permanent impacts, from 0.4962 to
0.4929 acres.
Based on correspondence with Ms. Chem Smith, due to the reduction of the total permanent
impact area a filing fee is not required with this submittal.
Enclosed please find the following revised documents for your review:
• PCN Form Proposed Impacts Inventory Section Sheets 4 & 5
• Wetland Impact Map Sheet 1 of 1 (C-6.0)

2h. Comments:
The Welland Impact Map Sheet 1 of 1 has temporary (Tl -T9) and permanent (P1 -P8) impact areas broken down by location. For purposes of
answering questions 2a - 2g these impacts have been grouped as follows: W1 = TI -T3 &T8-T9; W2 = P1 -P3; W3 = T4-T7; W4 = P4 -P8.
Within the project site, W1 & W2 correspond with temporary and permanent impacts to the western wetland system and W3 & W4 correspond with the
eastern wetland system.
3. Stream Impacts
If there are perennial or intermittent stream impacts (including temporary impacts) proposed on the site, then complete this
