Project Description
3a.
Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
The proposed project area is situated between the left bank of the Neuse River and the Buffalo Creek Greenway
Portions of the Neuse River's bank is fading within the project area and compromising the integrity of the Buffalo Creek
Greenway and a sanitary/sewer utility line at this location Land use in the vicinity of the project consists of a mixture of
high density residential and commercial development in downtown Smithfield which is situated to the east and south of
the study area. Land use is more rural in nature to the west of the study area and is comprised of large tracts of forested
floodplains, agricultural fields, and low density residential housing
3b.
List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
No wetlands are located within the proposed project area. `
3c List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
109 linear feet of the Neuse River's left bank is located within the proposed project area.
3d.
Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
Portions of the Neuse River bank is failing and eroding away within the project area The failing banks are compromising
a section of the Buffalo Creek Greenway and a sanitary/sewer utility line that runs parallel to the greenway. The project
will repair a failed section of bank to minimize erosion during high water events and eliminate the safety hazard and risk
to the greenway and sewer line posed by the actively eroding bank.
3e
Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
A boulder wall will be installed at a slope no steeper than a 1 1 ratio along the portions of the fading bank for bank
stabilization within the proposed project area. The bank stabilization materials will be approximately 2' to 5' diameter
boulders that will be pressed into the bank for stability and compaction of the underlying material. The voids between the
boulders, as well as between the boulders and bank material, will be filled with a graded mix of 2" to 12" rip rap. This
repair will protect the greenway and sewer facilities from erosion in the near future until a more permanent bank
stabilization technique can be designed and implemented. Typical construction equipment will be used such as dump
trucks, excavators, and front end loaders. I

boulders will be placed to an elevation of approximately 104' to ensure the bank failure is repaired. Depending on site
conditions, the boulders may be placed below 104' but not to exceed the past the toe of slope within the stream channel The
project proposes to impact 109 linear feet of the left bank of the Neuse River in order to stabilize portions of the bank that are
fading and experiencing erosion. The proposed impacts will result from the construction of a boulder wall along the failing
Neuse River bank for bank stabilization in order to prevent further erosion. The placement of fill will be used to restore the
original bank contours per the original bank survey prior to the Buffalo Creek Greenway construction

order to stabilize portions of the bank that are failing and experiencing erosion The proposed impacts will result from the
placement of rip rap along the fading Neuse River bank for bank stabilization in order to prevent further erosion
D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The proposed project will be self -mitigating and will repair a portion of the Neuse River's bank that is failing and compromising
the integrity of the Buffalo Creek Greenway and a sanitary sewer utility line that runs parallel to the Neuse River The boulder
wall will be constructed in a manner to minimize impacts below the OHWM. Impacts below the OHWM will not exceed past the
toe of slope within the stream channel Further, the project proposes to restore the bank to pre -failure contours
1 b Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Erosion and sediment control measures will be utilized (i e. silt fence) as needed during project construction to avoid and/or
minimize further impacts to downstream waters.

5. Endangered Species and Designated Critical Habitat (Corps Requirement)
5a. Will this project occur in or near an area with federally protected species or
❑ Yes ® No
habitat?
5b. Have you checked with the USFWS concerning Endangered Species Act
❑ Yes ® No
impacts?
E:1 Raleigh
5c. If yes, indicate the USFWS Field Office you have contacted.
❑ Asheville
5d. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical
Habitat?
NC Natural Heritage Program Element Occurrence Database (Updated October 2015) indicates no known occurrences of
any federally listed threatened or endangered species within the project area or within one mile of the project area
Habitat is not present in the study area for red -cockaded woodpecker or Michaux s sumac. Further, the nearest known
population of dwarf wedgemussel is in the Swift Creek watershed approximately two river miles downstream from the
project area and the nearest known population of Tar River spinymussel is over 50 river miles downstream from the
project area in the Little River The project proposes minimal impacts to the Neuse River bank and will improve the
stability of the bank to minimize further erosion/sedimentation into the Neuse River. Therefore, the proposed project will
have no effect on any federally listed threatened or endangered species.
6. Essential Fish Habitat (Corps Requirement)
6a. Will this project occur in or near an area designated as essential fish habitats
❑ Yes ® No
6b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Essential Fish Habitat?
The NOAA Essential Fish Habitat Mapper (reviewed February 11, 2016) was reviewed and no essential fish habitat or
habitat areas of particular concern were found within the project area.
7. Historic or Prehistoric Cultural Resources (Corps Requirement)
7a. Will this project occur in or near an area that the state, federal or tribal
governments have designated as having historic or cultural preservation
❑ Yes ® No
status (e.g., National Historic Trust designation or properties significant in
North Carolina history and archaeology)?
7b What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact historic or archeological resources?
The NCDENR State Historic Properties Office Map was reviewed (February 2016), and no historic resources occur within
the project area. There are numerous historic resources located in downtown Smithfield within 1 -mile of the project study
area However, the proposed project will be building a boulder wall to stabilize a failing bank along the Neuse River to
prevent further erosion to downstream waters and to protect the Buffalo Creek Greenway and a parallel sewer line. The
proposed project will have no effect on the nearby historic properties.

8. Flood Zone Designation (Corps Requirement)
8a. Will this project occur in a FEMA -designated 100 -year floodplain?
® Yes ❑ No
8b If yes, explain how project meets FEMA requirements: The intention of the proposed project's design is to match the
elevation/grade of the surveyed bank taken at the time of the greenway construction in 2005 In order to achieve a no -
Impact condition in the floodplain. An as -built survey will be bequired to document that the repair matches the pre-existing
conditions. If this condition cannot be met and documented by the as -built survey, a no -impact study will have to be
completed and mitigation may be required to achieve a no -impact designation
8c. What source(s) did you use to make the floodplain determination? FEMA DFIRM Panel 3720169400J (Eff. 12/2/2005) was
reviewed to make the floodplain determination.
