SEE ATTACHED SHEET 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. upaacea nni2oos Page I of 12 USACE - 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 o Sapp r~o a aracticableaincludee mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be approp p 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 cre ~ ngherdestoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable m the same wa If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached location for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing.

Proposed Impacts to waters of the United States/Waters of the State The Phase I area impacted will be 0.05 acres for a sewer pumping station. The Future Phase area impacted will be 0.20 acre for filling and grading for residential lots. The combined total wetland area impacted for the entire subdivision will be 0.25 acre. The entrance road to the subdivision was shifted south to minimize the wetland impacted in Phase I by the pumping station adjacent to the entrance street. The street and lots in the Future Phase were redesigned to curve around the majority of the wetland instead of going through the entire area. The total wetland area that would have originally been impacted was 0.62 acre. Using all efforts possible to reduce and minimize the wetland impacted resulted in a 60% reduction. Wetland impacted was reduced from 0.62 down to 0.25 acre. VII. impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) All construction will meet both State Storm-water and Sedimentation and Erosion Control laws and regulations. Wetland impacts will only be in the upper areas of the wetlands. The subdivision lots, roads, and pumping station were designed to reduce and minimize wetland areas impacted while maximizing the area of wetland protected. Phase I w acts werec hanged fromtgo~i0ng through the 5 acre. The Future Phase wetland imp wetland to being designed around it. This reduced the impacts from 0.468 acres to 0.20 acre on the Future Phase. Wetland impacts were reduced from an original impacted area of 0.62 acre down to 0.25 acre. At least 2 lots were forfeited. Total wetland avoidance and minimization on both phases resulted in a reduction of wetland impacted of 60%. VIII.

The buffer will run the entire length of the stream (both sides) for approximately 500' until leavinglthactedparea, along with thet25' buffers adjacennt Future Phase), other than the p to each side of the stream will be 1.6 acres. The 1.6 acres will be a common greenway area for the entire subdivision and will be held as a conservation easement by the subdivision homeowners association.

The legal restncti and presented to the USACE representative by July 30, 2009. Wetland Mitigation Plan For Ball antrae Farms All wetland on the entire Ballantrae tract amounts to 0.903 acres. The area impacted by Phase I (0.05 ac.) and Future Phase (0.20 ac.) amounts to a total of 0.25 acre. The entire wetland area on the tract, minus the impacted area, will be dedicated as a common greenway protected by a conservation easement. The entire 500' length of the flowing stream (located on Phase I) will be dedicated with a 50' buffe~• (25' adjacent to each side of the stream) as a common greenway also. Other than the 0.25 acre wetla impacted areas, this will protect all the wetlands and flowing streams on the entire tract. This will amount to a common greenway of approximately 1.6 acres. The conservation easement will be held by the Subdivision Homeowners Association. The common greenway will be preserved in its existing natural hardwood forested wetland and forested riparian buffer condition in perpetuity. `~ -~< 'r, ~~"x~*~ '~ ~~ ~, ~_ ,~ f r< a. ti''.21 f'.. ~ ti n •• ' .~ ,.
