We received a letter dated December 4, 2002 from the NC Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ)
requesting a 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) application fee for the Outfall B Sanitary
Sewer Extension application submitted November 22, 2002. The application does not require
written concurrence of a 401 WQC because the proposed sanitary sewer crossing (Impact #1)
meets the conditions for WQC #3374 and an exempt activity within the Neuse River Basin
(NRB) Riparian Buffer Rules. The application was submitted to NCDWQ for Impact #2's
compliance with the NRB Riparian Buffer Rules. Impact #2 consists only of a riparian buffer
impact. Because Impact #2 does not involve waters of the US, a 401 WQC is not required for
this activity. Neither of the proposed impacts requires written concurrence of the 401 WQC;
therefore, no WQC application fee is necessary.

Attn: Mr. John Dorney
On behalf of Garner Retail, LLC, we request authorization from the US Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) to use Nationwide Permit 12 for the proposed Outfall B - Extension
gravity sanitary sewer to cover temporary impacts to an intermittent stream channel. We
also request Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Rule compliance from the NC Division
Water Quality (NCDWQ) for impacts to the riparian buffer other than a perpendicular
crossing. A Pre-construction Notification Application (PCN) is attached, which includes
an agent authorization form.
The proposed sanitary sewer runs from an existing manhole located adjacent to an
unnamed tributary of White Oak Creek and Interstate 40, crosses the tributary, and runs
along the outside of the riparian buffer before turning north then west through uplands to
the Rex Wellness Center. It will impact one stream channel and its associated riparian

buffer. The impact tables in the PCN itemize and provide a description the proposed
impact. The total temporary impact to an intermittent stream channel is 25 linear feet.
The applicant's engineer designed the proposed sanitary sewer alignment to avoid
wetland impacts and minimize stream channel impacts to the maximum extent practical.
The proposed stream channel and riparian buffer impacts are not avoidable due to the
location of the existing manhole adjacent to I-40.
The USACE's current policy requires applicants to avoid and minimize wetland and
stream channel impacts to the maximum extent practicable and may require
compensatory mitigation to offset unavoidable losses of waters of the US when a forested
wetland is converted to a herbaceous wetland in the permanently maintained utility line
right-of-way. The proposed sanitary sewer will not impact forested wetlands. It is
important to note that only a 10-foot-wide permanent easement will be maintained as
required by the 401 Water Quality Certification conditions. The applicant will install the
proposed sanitary sewer and will restore the stream channel in accordance with the
conditions of Nationwide Permit 12, NCDWQ's water quality certification conditions,
and the USACE's regional conditions. Because the applicant has avoided wetland
impacts and will restore the stream channel as described above, S&EC believes that
compensatory mitigation should not be required by the USACE.
Buffer Impact #1 is a perpendicular crossing of the stream channel, and is considered
exempt in the Buffer Rules. Buffer Impact #2 involves the connection to an existing
manhole located within the riparian buffer. Because this connection represents a portion
of a perpendicular crossing, S&EC believes that mitigation should not be required.
However, if NCDWQ requires mitigation, the applicant proposes to satisfy the mitigation
requirements through payment to the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund.

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.
The annlicant's engineer designed the proposed sanitary sewer alignment to avoid wetland
impacts and minimize stream channel impacts to the maximum extent practical. The proposed
stream channel and riparian buffer impacts are not avoidable due to the location of the existing
manhole adjacent to I-40
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 March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
Page 9 of 13
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. 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 NCWRP 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, available at
hLtp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetland,-,/strm,gide.htm].
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 USACE's current policy requires applicants to avoid and minimize wetland and
stream channel impacts the maximum extent practicable and may require compensatory
mitigation to offset unavoidable losses of waters of the US when a forested wetland is
converted to a herbaceous wetland in the permanently maintained utility line right-of-way.
The proposed sanitary sewer will not impact forested wetlands It is important to note that
only a 10-foot-wide permanent easement will be maintained with the riparian buffer as
required by the 401 Water Quality Certification conditions. The applicant will install the
proposed sanitary sewer and will restore the stream channel in accordance with the
conditions of NWP 12, NCDWQ's water quality certification conditions, and the USACE's
regional conditions Because the applicant has avoided wetland impacts and will restore the
stream channel as described above S&EC believes that compensatory mitigation should not
be required by the USACE
Buffer Impact #1 is a perpendicular crossing of the stream channel and is considered
exempt in the Buffer Rules. Buffer Impact #2 involves the connection to the existing
manhole located within the riparian buffer. Because this connection represents a portion of a
perpendicular crossing S&EC believes that mitigation should not be required. However, if
NCDWQ requires mitigation the applicant proposes to satisfy the mitigation requirements
through payment to the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
Page 10 of 13
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the
following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): NA
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): 462
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): NA
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public
(federal/state) land?
Yes ? No
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)?
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No ?
If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes ? No ?
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify V
Yes ® No ? If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.

additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.
If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or.0260.
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
XIII. Violations (required by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No

XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
