WETLAND AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTANTS Mr. David Bailey US Army Corps of Engineers Raleigh Regulatory Field Office 3331 Heritage Trade Drive, Suite 105 Wake Forest, NC 27587 RE: AID SAW - AAA Randleman Road Self Storage Randleman Road Greensboro NC PrAMD016 201 60464 SCF _ Mr. Bailey,q 44f 7/4 Attached please find a Pre -Construction Notification for a Nationwide Permit 39 for a self - storage facility planned in Greensboro, NC in Guilford County. The impacts associated with this project total 0.19 acres of permanent wetland impacts. Approximately 0.045 acres of wetlands will be left undisturbed. Proiect Purpose The purpose of the proposed project is to construct a self -storage facility to provide storage opportunities for an area where similar options are lacking for this economic sector. Impacts are necessary to maximize return through net usable space. :Project Need The storage facility is needed to meet the growing economic demands of the region and to fulfill the economic expectations of the owner. Project Description The project consists of the construction of the self -storage facility and appurtenant parking, as well as a sand filter BMP in order to comply with Phase II requirements. Permanent impacts to Waters of the US are necessary in order to maximize the net usable space of the site and to remain outside of an existing electric utility line. Permanent impacts totaling 0.19 acres of low quality riparian wetlands are necessary in order to maintain the economic pro forma required to complete the project. These wetlands occurring on site have been highly manipulated due to the amount of development immediately surrounding the project and occur in extensively disturbed soils. A sand filter approximately 2900 square feet in size has been strategically located to treat stormwater generated from the increase in impervious surface associated with the project. This BMP will provide sufficient stormwater treatment to adhere to Phase II standards and will be under review of the local delegated stormwater authority. Christopher Huysman Tamp Bandy 170 Dew Drop Road 4108 LB Propst Drive Sparta, NC 28675 Conover, NC 28613 336.406 0906 828 302.3437 Chris.Huysman@gmad com JTampBandy@gmail.com HUYSMAN & BANDY, INC. WETLAND AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONSULTANTS Standard heavy earth -moving equipment will be used, including but not limited to excavator, dump truck, bulldozer, skid -steer, etc. Following construction all fill slopes will be restored to original conditions through appropriate bio -engineering practices, and allowed to re -naturalize. Avoidance and Minimization After extensive economic analysis it was determined that completion of the project is not feasible bereft of the storage capacity generated through the proposed impacts to regulated features. In order to maintain current site conditions as much as possible, 0.045 acres of wetlands have been avoided in the most recent site plan; these wetlands were included within the impact area in the original design. Mitigation To mitigate for the loss of waters associated with the project, riparian wetland mitigation is proposed at a 2:1 ratio (0.4 acres) through the Cripple Creek Mitigation Bank. This quantity of high quality wetland restoration is sufficient to replace the form and function of the low quality feature present on site. A letter of availability for the proposed mitigation has been attached with this application. Please do not hesitate to let me know if you have any questions or if further information is required to process this request.

(Applicant). The Applicant may ultimately purchase the Credits, if they are available, following Permit issuance. Should the Applicant purchase the Credits at that time, we will complete and execute the Compensatory Mitigation Responsibility Transfer Form (Transfer Form) within five (5) days of receipt of the full purchase price. We will additionally provide copies of the completed and executed Transfer Form to the Applicant, the Bank's US Army Corps (USACE) Project Manager and, if needed, other regulatory agencies. In addition, we will provide USACE with an updated copy of the Bank's Ledger, reflecting the transaction. Transaction information in the updated Bank Ledger will include relevant Permit and Applicant information as well as the number and resource type of the debited Credits.
