Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It maybe useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant inay attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction Updated 11/U2005 Page 9 of 13 techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. The current subdivision design includes ten lots. The lot sizes will vary from approximately 20 000 sq ft to 27 000 sq ft These lots are relatively lame compared to the majority of pre-existing lots in the area (adjacent subdivisions to the north and south) that are less than 10 000 sq ft each In order to construct the road and provide a buildable area (including on-site septic system areas) the isolated wetlands would need to be impacted. To address DWQ concerns from the initial permit request as stated in the 6-11-07 letter from DWQ (enclosed) the applicant intends to preserve 7 646 s fq t of Isolated wetlands that were initially proposed to be filled VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. USAGE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USAGE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide html. 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. There is no proposed mitigation since the wetlands are isolated and are not under USAGE jurisdiction and these isolated wetlands are less than 1 0 acre in area According to 15A NCAC 02H .1305 (c) (6) (A) "Impacts to all surface waters on the site which total less than one acre of surface waters or less than ISO linear feet of~ streams do not require compensatory mitigation" Updated 11!1/2005 Page 10 of 13 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this fo>m.
