The following eight items state the requested additional information along with the responses to each. 1. Please provide updated impact maps that clearly depict both the wetland and stream naming conventions you have chosen. For example, you have "crossing 2" impacting wetland 23 and stream 2. Those labels are not depicted on the maps that were submitted with the PCN. Response: Per discussion with Joe Myers (NCDWR) on 5/31/2024. It was confirmed that adding crossing location callouts over the PJD maps (which identify the stream and wetland features with labels) would satisfy this request. These maps are provided as Attachment A. 2. Please provide us with a copy of the Statement of Availability (SOA) for the mitigation that has been secured for this project. Response: Please see a copy of the Statement of Availability from Great Dismal Swamp Mitigation Bank provided as Attachment B. This was included with the PCN submittal documentation. We are unsure why it did not end up in the project file. 1g. Is payment Into a mitigation bank or In -lieu fee program proposed for mitigation of Impacts?

Additional Mitigation required - mitigation shall be required for impacts equal to or exceeding 300 linear feet per perennial stream. On the PCN, you indicate that there will be 539 linear feet of permanent perennial stream impacts, but in the mitigation section you only account for 126 linear feet . Please provide an updated SOA that accounts for all permanent perennial stream impacts. Response: The stream impact table in the PCN incorrectly identified all streams as perennial. This was an oversight on our part. An updated table to correctly identify the stream type has been provided as Attachment C. The correct total permanent perennial stream impacts is 202 linear feet, which is below the DWR mitigation threshold. 4. In the mitigation section of the PCN, it is indicated that there are both non -riparian and riparian wetland impacts. Can you confirm if the bottomland hardwood wetland impacts are to be categorized as "non -riparian" wetland impacts and that the "non -tidal freshwater marsh" impacts should be categorized as riparian wetland impacts? Response: Not necessarily. Riparian wetland impacts involve a wetland associated with a stream/streams. Non -riparian wetland impacts involve a wetland that is not associated with a stream/streams. For clarity, wetland impacts associated with Crossing #'s 4 and 11 are considered non -riparian. 5. In Phase C7, crossing #8 & crossing #9 are impacting the same stream. Please provide an explanation of the need for two road crossings and how they meet our criteria for avoidance and minimization of impacts to surface waters. Response: Two crossings are necessary in order to provide for emergency ingress/egress. In the event of an emergency, it is imperative that personnel are able to evacuate the facility and that emergency response personnel are able to access the facility as quickly as possible. Two access locations are necessary in case one is disabled (such as, for example, a tree falling across during a storm or if a vehicle or piece of equipment breaks down and blocks access). 6. The culverts profiles show wetland culverts being buried and culverts at greater than 2.5% grade being buried. Please see Item 11 in the attached GC4256 and reconfigure the design of all culverts located in wetlands that are at 2.5% grade. Culverts located in wetlands are discouraged from being buried. Response: Only two of the crossings (#4 and #11) are wetland -only crossings. Each of the other 10 include streams and require pipe burial in accordance with the NWP14 Regional Conditions. With regards to the two wetlands -only crossings, we were unaware that pipe burial in this instance is discouraged, although we knew it was not required, nor prohibited in GC4246. We were trying to make every effort to provide aquatic passage, as we know this is important to USACE and NCDWR. We have revised these two wetlands -only crossings to eliminate pipe burial. The revised designs are included as Attachment D. The pipes are now set at -grade in the wetlands. 595 SuvierStreet, 4"" Floor, Sta.m.{ard, CT 06901 • Phonev 704.662.0375 S LJ f%%I�"FEE FR G Y1 Only one (Crossing 4) of these two wetlands -only crossings shows the proposed culvert at greater than 2.5% grade. This is because there is an existing farm road culvert that has been in place for many years and needs to be replaced. The existing culvert was originally set at a similar grade when originally installed, and the wetland on either side (through sedimentation and erosion) developed a difference in surface elevation on each end of the existing pipe. The pipe cannot be flattened without extensive, unnecessary disturbance to the wetlands. For the other crossings where pipe burial is required, GC4256 does not prohibit pipe burial at greater than 2.5% grade, but simply states that burial isn't required. We cannot reduce the grade without altering original/existing stream profiles. USACE has indicated that they desire pipe burial for aquatic passage. As such we respectfully request to keep these as designed. 7. The alignment of the culvert #12 appears to be installed perpendicular to the adjacent stream - Please realign the outlet location of the culvert for the road crossing so that it is in better alignment with the stream channel to help prevent streambank erosion.

After reviewing the road crossings, we have concerns with the amount of riprap that is being used in the stream channels. Can you please provide justification for the amount of riprap being used in these road crossings, as in some instances, the riprap placement is almost as long as the culverts themselves. It appears to be an excessive amount and may not meet the criteria for avoidance and minimization. Please provide your need for the amount of riprap proposed. Response: Justification and methodology for riprap design has been prepared by the Engineer, Timmons Group, and is provided as Attachment F. 595 Suv1.erStreet, 4f" Floor, St-amfar'd, CT 06901 • Phone' 704.662.0375 SunN�" FEE RE-=%irs Attachment A: Impact Maps 595 SL mnwrStreet 4"" Floor, Stamford, CT 06901 • Phonev 704.662.0375 \L, a \ \ \ } ¥ £ � 3 / / { 201 ® t 2 2 2 2\} _ \ -w2 _ a«> _ .. / q »4br22 �\ ([5 _ ■_^® (`\\\ ®� \ ) E\ ° + : 0. ^ �\ ` ON )r \/ k§ ao CN )] R] +e/CL 0 go- 6 \\\�( 0 ' / � C / : : _ )\\ - )!/§§ CL ao :y§�» /»§ ® 2)-oo \\ \U �* %)(\ )\5.

Dooley@timmons.com Crossing Riprap Design Methodology. The methodology utilized for the sizing of the Cherry Crossing Riprap outlet protection is based on the New York DOT (NYDOT) Dissipator Method for Use in Defined Channels as specified in the NCDEQ Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual Section 8.06. The 10-year design storm was utilized for culvert and riprap sizing calculations. Hydraflow Express was utilized to determine culvert sizing and 10-year outlet velocity. This velocity was then used to calculate the required riprap pad sizing and stone classification per the NYDOT method. For multi -pipe culverts, pipe size used for riprap sizing diameter was determined as by multiplying diameter of pipe by 1.25 of a single culvert. For crossings consisting of one large pipe and two smaller pipes, the pipe diameter calculation used the largest of the three pipes for design diameter for riprap apron sizing. Per the NYDOT method, the recommended length of riprap apron to prevent a scour hole is determined using Figure 8.06d. 20 0 S 10. 15 N N DIAMETER (FL) Figure 8.06c Sincerely, Jacob Dooley, PE W 6 N APRON MATERIAL LENGTH OF APRON TO PROTECT CULVERT L1 TO PREVENT SCOUR HOLE USE L2ALWAYS L2 1 STONE FILLING (FINE) CL.
