Re: Jurisdictional Waters Delineation
Task Order 8913DP-7
Kinston City Landfill, Lenoir County
Gentlemen:
Cardno has completed ajurisdictional waters delineation (JWD) and stream determination in accordance
with Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA), Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899, and
the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) for the Kinston City Landfill (project) in
Kinston, Lenoir County, North Carolina. Cardno was contracted by ATC Associates, who has been
performing the landfill assessment, to provide determine if potential jurisdictional waters (PJW) occur in
the project area. This letter report summarizes the results of the preliminary JWD.
INTRODUCTION
The project is located approximately 0.8 miles south of Kinston, at the southern terminus of South Davis
Street, west of U.S. 258, and north of the Neuse River (Figure 1). The project is approximately 394.2
acres and is owned by the City of Kinston (Parcel Identification Number 452407679529). The project is
bounded on the south by the Neuse River, railroad tracks to the east, and residential development to the
north and west. The property served as an unregulated landfill from 1960 to 1981 and operated as a
Jurisdictional Waters Delineation
Task Order 8913DP-7
Kinston City Landfill, Lenoir County
Page 2
regulated C&D landfill from 1981 to 1988. Currently, the landfill is non -operational; however, illegal
dumping occurs in the northeastern portion of the landfill
METHODS
Prior to initiation of the JWD, Cardno conducted a review of the US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS)
National Wetland Inventory (NWI) mapping, Natural Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) soil
surveys, Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) floodplain data, U.S. Geological Survey
(USGS) topographic mapping, and recent aerial photography.
Cardno conducted the JWD on August 31 through September 3, 2015. The JWD followed the technical
standards and procedures described in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Delineation Manual (Environmental
Laboratory 1987), the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Regional Supplement to the Corps of
Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual: Atlantic and Gulf Coastal Plain Region (Version 2.0), and
guidance for determining Ordinary High Water Marks. PJWs were delineated and the boundaries were
flagged in the field. Data points were characterized to determine the presence of the three wetland
parameters: vegetation, soil, and hydrology. A global positioning system (GPS) was used to document the
location of the data points. The methodology to identify and determine streams followed the NCDENR
Division of Water Quality Methodology for Identification of Intermittent and Perennial Streams and their
Origins (Version 4.11).
BACKGROUND
Hydrology
Cardno reviewed the Kinston and Rivermont USGS 7.5 Minute Topographic Maps, which show two
intermittent streams, seven perennial waterbodies, and swamps on the project area (Figure 2). The
swamps are located in the southwest and southeast portion of the project area, near the Neuse River. The
Lenoir County Soil Survey map indicated the project had three waterbodies and no streams (Attachment).
According to FEMA floodplain data, the project is located in the Special Flood Hazard Area subject to
inundation by the I% annual chance flood.
Lenoir County Soil Survey
According to the Lenoir County Soil Survey, the project area is underlain by three soil types: Chewacla
loam, frequently flooded (Ch), Kinston loam, frequently flooded (Kn), and Lakeland sand, 0 to 6 percent
slopes (La) (Figure 3). Only the Kinston loam soil is a listed hydric soil and it is characterized by loam
and clay loam found in long, narrow bands at the base of uplands with a few areas that are sandy
Jurisdictional Waters Delineation
Task Order 8913DP-7
Kinston City Landfill, Lenoir County
Page 3
throughout. Lakeland sand soil is characterized by sandy soils to a depth of more than 72 inches and it
occurs on broad, undulating instream areas and rounded divides. Chewacla loam soil occurs along large
streams and it is characterized as loam and clay loam with a few sandy areas. In addition, the soil survey
showed that the area of investigation contains surface water but no streams.
National Wetland Inventory
Numerous areas of the site are also shown on the National Wetlands Inventory (Figure 4). According to
the National Wetlands Inventory, 12 classifications of wetlands occur in the project area:
• PFO1C: Palustrine forested, broad-leaved deciduous wetland, seasonally floods.
• PFOIA: Palustrine forested, broad-leaved deciduous wetland, floods temporarily.
e PFO1/2F: Palustrine forested, broad-leaved and needle -leaved deciduous wetland,
semipermanently flooded.
• PSS I C: Palustrine scrub -shrub, broad-leaved deciduous wetland, seasonally flooded.
• PSSI/2F: Palustrine scrub -shrub, broad-leaved and needle -leaved deciduous wetland,
semipermanently flooded.
• PEM 1 F: Palustrine emergent, persistent wetland, semipermanently flooded.
• PEM1Fx: Palustrine emergent, persistent wetland within an excavated waterbody,
semipermanently flooded.
• PEM1C: Palustrine emergent, persistent wetland, seasonally flooded.
• PEMHx: Palustrine unconsolidated bottom waterbody, excavated, permanently flooded.
• PUBFx: Palustrine unconsolidated bottom waterbody, excavated, semipermanently flooded.
• PUBHx: Palustrine unconsolidated bottom waterbody, excavated, permanently flooded.
• LIUBHx: Lacustrine unconsolidated bottom waterbody, limnetic, excavated, permanently
flooded.
RESULTS
The JWD resulted in the delineation of approximately 260.2 acres (ac) of potentially jurisdictional
wetlands within eight areas. Three intermittent streams, totaling 10,631 linear feet (ft), were located in the
project and were delineated as PJWs (Figure 5). The intermittent stream that runs along the northwestern
edge of the project through Areas A, B, and C has been dammed by North American beaver (Castor
canadensis) in two areas, causing the stream to pond. A summary of features at the site is included in the
tables below:
