MEMORANDUM
DATE: 6/19/08
TO: Ian McMillan
FROM: Scott Frederick
SUBJECT: PCN Addendum
Ian,
Enclosed are seven (5) copies of the revised PCN previously submitted for the Main Street
Square Development in Holly Springs. This development is proposed by Mr. Kevin Cochran
of Boylan Development and supporting documentation for a Neuse Buffer Rule Review and
Approval was previously submitted on October 22, 2005 via letter along with a courtesy copy
PCN. The review fee of $240.00 has been submitted previously to your office.
Following our phone conversation 6/18/08, it was revealed that the courtesy copy PCN originally
submitted is not in the DWQ Wetlands Unit file for this project. We have submitted supporting
documentation for the original permit application process including the original JD, 404 permit,
and Stormwater Plan acceptance letter from DWQ.
We would like to clarify again the proposed impacts for this project. Through the PCN
submittal, USACE permitted impacts up to .27 acres of wetlands and streams (Version 1). The
PCN accepted was in error for proposed impacts because the project developer wanted to reduce
wetland/stream impacts further to satisfy DWQ concerns. Following additional avoidance and
minimization, wetland impacts were reduced to .08 ac. as reflected in the courtesy copy PCN
submitted to DWQ 10/22/2005 (Version 2).
Currently, twp additional areas of Neuse Buffer (NB-2 & NB-3) will be impacted and the PCN
reflects these new impacts (See Impact Map). Two wooden greenway boardwalk bridges are
proposed across an unnamed tributary to Basal Creek and Bass Lake in these locations and are
permittable by USACE and DWQ. SB 1 and NB 1 continues to be accounted for impacts with the
building of a prefabricated metal bridge and sewer easement crossing in this location.
Let us know if additional information is necessary. Hopefully we can get everything resolved
shortly. Thank you. Talk to you soon. -Scott U r ? QW2 D

Re: Submittal of 404/401 Water Quality Permit Application (Meuse Buffer Approval) for Main
Street Square Project (Action ID: 200520531), Holy Springs, Wake County, NC
Dear Mr. Dorney,
Enclosed are seven (7) copies of the PCN application and supporting information for the 404/401 Water
Quality Permit (Meuse Buffer Approval) for the Main Street Square Project, Holy Springs, NC. This
project is proposed by Boylan Development of Raleigh, Wake County, NC. Previously, a 404/401 PCN
application was submitted to USACE and approved based on the proposed site plan and impacts to
surface waters. A 401 certification application was not submitted for concurrence due to timing and
changes in project scope prior to submittal. This permit (Action ID: 200520531) was issued on March
21, 2005 and a copy is included with this letter.
Division of Water Quality correspondence related to the jurisdiction and delineation of perennial and
intermittent streams found on the proposed site is included with this package. In addition, a jurisdictional
wetland delineation was completed and submitted concurrently with this permit application and a copy is
also included with this correspondence.
The original permit application revealed a great effort by Boylan Development to minimize wetland
impacts down to less than a 1/3 acre. Seven more parcels have been added to the site plan and for this
amended permit application. Even so, Boylan Development and their architects have reduced wetland
impacts to less than a 1/10 acre with the revised permit application. The current proposed site
development will unavoidably impact approximately 0.087 acres of jurisdictional waters of the United
States.
Seven copies of this application are being submitted for agency concurrence (Meuse Buffer Approval)
related to the Neuse Buffer Rules governing water quality impacts to surface waters in the Neuse River
Basin. Specifically, a request is submitted for a Neuse Buffer Approval related to storm water discharge
into buffers of tributaries to the Neuse River within the proposed project area.
Due to the proposed surface water impacts a 401 Water Quality Certification #3402 for residential,
commercial, and institutional developments is not required. Impervious surfaces on the proposed
development exceed 30%, however, given the minimal surface water impacts and proposed diffuse flow
(Attached Site Plan - Level Spreader locations) into nutrient sensitive buffers and waters, water quality
and quantity should be adequately addressed. Therefore, this application only seeks Buffer Rule
Approval for the diffuse flow leaving the development and entering Neuse Buffers. It is our
understanding that no application fee is required for this submittal.
Please let me know if you need additional information or if anything in the Neuse Buffer Approval
application needs amending. I look forward to working with you on this permit application process.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
?'rf

Re: Resubmittal of 404/401 Water Quality Permit PCN/Notification for Main Street Square
Project (Action ID: 200520531), Holy Springs, Wake County, NC
Dear Mr. Matthews,
Enclosed is one (1) copy of the PCN application and supporting information for the 404/401 Water
Quality Permit for the Main Street Square Project, Holy Springs, NC. This project is proposed by Boylan
Development of Raleigh, Wake County, NC.
The proposed site development will unavoidably impact approximately 0.087 acres of jurisdictional
waters of the United States. With this, we are submitting an application for Nation Wide Permit 39 to
permit the destruction of the waters of the United States. Enclosed with this letter and application are
supporting maps, correspondences related to project history, and agent authorization.
The original permit (Action ID: 200520531) reveals a great effort by Boylan Development to minimize
wetland impacts down to less than a 1/3 acre. Seven more parcels have been added to the site plan and
for this amended permit application. Even so, Boylan Development and their architects have reduced
wetland impacts to less than a 1/10 acre with the revised permit application. Although a PCN is not
required for impacts less than 1/10 acre, we are submitting this application as a courtesy notification for
file both with USACE and DWQ. A request for Neuse Buffer Approval will be submitted concurrently to
DWQ for the proposed surface waters and buffer impacts from the project.
Please let me know if you need additional information or if anything in the application needs amending. I
look forward to working with you on this permit application process. Thank you.

9. Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project
at the time of this application: Property consists of open fallow field adjacent to a
regenerating riparian forest corridor along Basal Creek. Some relic poplar and maple trees
remain from the last logging of the property. Beaver activity has flooded the creek and
changed the species composition of the adjacent riparian forest. A pond is located on the
eastern edge of the proposed development. Large white oak and willow oak trees are
scattered in the proposed open space areas.
10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The
landowner proposes to construct a multi-family residential, commercial retail development
contiguous with the new NC55 bypass road. This development will be constructed in
accordance with State and Federal water quality regulations. In an effort to minimize
impacts to surface waters and natural resources the development will be constructed
accordig
n to a high density design. Land clearing equipment such as bulldozers, excavators,
and pans will be used to design the grade proposed.
11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The surrounding area around Holy Springs
supports the demand for multi-family housing and is necessary to keep up with the rowing
community. This demand for housing from the public and new residents to Holy Springs
warrants this development.
IV. Prior Project History
If jurisdictional determinations and/or permits have been requested and/or obtained for this
project (including all prior phases of the same subdivision) in the past, please explain. Include
the USACE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and
certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits,
certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and
buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project,
list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.I.P. project, along with
construction schedules. NWP 39 Permit previously obtained for Action ID: 200520531
(attached). Previous site plans, wetland impacts, and agency correspondences also attached to
this application.
V. Future Project Plans
Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work,
and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application.
Page 7 of 16
No additional permit requests are anticipated at this time for additional phases. See attached Site
Plan (Main Street Square).
VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. 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 proposed impacts to water
resources are limited to small jurisdictional riparian wetlands adjacent to and within the
floodplain of two unnamed tributaries to Bass Lake. The majority of the impacted wetland
areas is on the fringe of the main delineated wetland area on the property and has most likely
been enhanced due to beaver activity in the vicinity. Wetland impacts have been minimized
and avoided through careful design and redesign of the proposed project Wetland impacts
have been minimized to .084 acres of the total 6.30 acres of wetlands on all parcels Stream
impacts have been minimized to .003 ac. One stream crossing is proposed for a sanitary
sewer easement and prefabricated metal bridge, which will be contained to 20 linear feet of
an unnamed tributary (SB 1 /NB 1) to Bass Lake. In addition Neuse Buffers will be impacted
through the construction of wooden reg enway boardwalks at N132 and N133. Total Neuse
Buffer impacts have been minimized to 6,000 ft2.
2. Individually list wetland impacts. Types of impacts include, but are not limited to
mechanized clearing, grading, fill, excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams,
separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding.

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 initial site plan proposed 6
apartment buildings, associated parking plus amenities. In order to minimize wetland impacis 3
apartment buildings totaling 84 units were eliminated (See layout "Main Street Square" by Bass,
Nixon and Kennedy, Inc. Dated 8/2/04, Exhibit "A", previously submitted). The current site plan
proposes a maximum of 354 units on 36.75 acres of land, associated parking and amenities
(Exhibit B). The total developable acreage is 20.15 acres with 16.60 acres of open space and
14.10 acres of impervious surfaces. Retaining walls have been designed to minimize impacts to
wetlands and surface waters extensively in the site plan. Tree protection fencing and various
erosion control measures will be placed around wetlands during construction to reduce
any potential impact.
Page 10 of 16
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. 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, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/ncwetlands/strmaide.html.
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.
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
(919) 715-0476 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://h2o.eni.state.nc.us/wyM/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please

Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as identified
within 15A NCAC 213.0242 or .0244, or .0260.
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
Describe impervious acreage (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. If percent impervious surface exceeds 20%, please provide calculations
demonstrating total proposed impervious level. Existing impervious acreage on the site is +/-
0%. Total site area for is 20.15 acres out of 36.75 for the parcels identified in this permit The
proposed impervious area is 14.1 acres or 38.37% of the total current and proposed project area
Of the 36.75 acres, 6.30 acres is jurisdictional wetlands with approximately 6.22 acres to be
preserved along with 16.60 acres of open space. Stormwater discharge directly to wetland areas
will be avoided. Concentrated stormwater discharge into buffers will also be avoided
Stormwater will be discharged at non-erosive velocities (i.e.diffuse flow)
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. Cumulative Impacts (required by DWQ)
Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in additional
development which could impact nearby downstream water quality? Yes ? No
If yes, please submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with
the most recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality policy posted on our website at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. If no, please provide a short narrative description: This
project site is located adjacent to Highway 55 and no additional development is feasible within
the vicinity and subwatershed. Additional development is possible across Highway 55, which
drains away from the Highway. Both tributaries in the vanity of the Main Street project are
impounded, which helps to maintain adjacent and downstream water quality.

XV. 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).
