Updated 1]/]/2005
Page 7 of l3

Each impact must be listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be
listed separately from riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary.
All proposed impacts, permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly
identifiable on an accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent
and perennial) should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to
these systems. Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as
appropriate. Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact
is strictly for wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If
additional space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: The overall residential community
proiect includes After-the-Fact impacts for 2 culverts (Facts #3 and #4) 2 additional
permanent impacts for road crossings (Impacts #1 and #2) and temporary construction road
impacts (Impacts #5 #6 and #7) The ATF impacts are associated with 2 culvert
replacements. The existing culverts were each approximately 24 feet in length A
delmeat>on of the entire property has been conducted and is presented on the attached
delineation map (Figure 5). All streams and wetlands are also shown with proposed impacts
on Figures 4.0-4.4.

If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be
included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.

Current land use in the vicinity of the pond
Size of watershed draining to pond: N/A

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may 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
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. Impacts have been avoided as
much as possible, but some stream crossings are required for the development of this residential
community (see Figures 4.0-4.4). The After-the-Fact permits (Impacts #3 and #4) were
minimized by utilizing 2 existing road crossings As presented on the attached Impact Plan the
two ATF impacts total approximately 107 linear feet The temporary construction roads are
needed until the permanent roads reach final grade and stabilization These temporary impacts
will be restored, which will include bank stabilization and matching upstream and downstream
dimension, pattern and profile. The banks will be replanted following the N C Guidelines for
Riparian Buffer Restoration. All impacts to wetlands have been avoided
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.
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 of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed.
Updated 11/1/2005
Page 10 of 13

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 USACE 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 (see DWQ website for most current
version.).
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.
The applicant plans to pay into EEP for 247 linear feet of stream impact The acceptance
form is attached.
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
[phone] 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 form. For
additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP
website at http://www.nceep.net/pa~es/inlieureplace.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed,
please check the appropriate box on page five and provide the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 2471f
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): N/A
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
Amount ofNon-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A

public (federal/state) land? Yes ^ No
2. If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?

Hickory, NC 28603 Expiration of Acceptance: October 15, 2008
Project: Broad River Highlands County: Cleveland
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) is willing to
accept payment for impacts associated with the above referenced project. Please note that this decision does not assure that
the payment will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts. It is the responsibility of the
applicant to contact these agencies to determine if payment to the NCEEP will be approved.
This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter and is not transferable. If we have not received a copy of
the issued 404 Permit/401 Certifecation/CAMA permit within this time frame, this acceptance will expire. It is the
applicant's responsibility to send copies of the permits to NCEEP. Once NCEEP receives a copy ofthe permit(s) an invoice
will be issued based on the required mitigation in that permit and payment must be made prior to conducting the authorized
work. The amount of the In Lieu Fee to be paid to NCEEP by an applicant is calculated based upon the Fee Schedule and
policies listed at www.nceep.net.
Based on the information supplied by you the impacts that may require compensatory mitigation are summarized in the
following table.
Broad

Upon receipt of payment, EEP will take responsibility for providing the compensatory mitigation. If the regulatory agencies
require mitigation credits greater than indicated above, and the applicant wants NCEEP to be responsible for the additional
mitigation, the applicant will need to submit a mitigation request to NCEEP for approval prior to permit issuance. The
mitigation will be performed in accordance with the Memorandum of Understanding between the N. C. Department of
Environment and Natural Resources and the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers dated November 4, 1998.
