Re: Southern Storage - NWP 18 PCN Submittal
Wilmington, New Hanover County
WR Project #03170174.00
Dear Mr. Dahl and Ms. Higgins,
On behalf of Inlet Watch Development Partners, LLC, we are requesting authorization from the
USACE to use NWP 18 for 0.082 acres of permanent wetland impacts for construction of the
proposed project. The proposed wetland impacts are less than 0.10 acres and do not require
written approval from NCDWR. However, we are requesting an email from NCDWR confirming
that written approval is not required for our files.
The project is ±7.0 acres in size and is located at 7261 Carolina Beach Road In Wilmington, New
Hanover County, North Carolina (Latitude: 34.078224°N; Longitude: -77.893250°W). The project
is located in the White Oak River basin and onsite waters drain to Intracoastal Waterway (ICWW).
The Water Quality Classification for ICWW is SA; HQW and the Stream Index Number is: 18-87-
(30.5). The cataloging unit for the site is 03020302.
Proposed Project
The purpose of the proposed project is to construct a self -storage facility to serve the demand for
southern New Hanover County. The proposed project consists of the construction of a self -storage
facility, containing four buildings, roads, parking, utilities, and stormwater management.
Project History
The Corps of Engineers issued an Approved Jurisdictional Determination (AID: SAW -2013-00142)
for the proposed project area on 07/03/2013, which has been provided as an Appendix.
Proposed Impacts
The proposed impacts consists of 0.082 acres of permanent wetland impacts.
The proposed 0.055 acres of permanent wetland impacts (Impact A) will occur from construction
and grading associated with Building 2. The proposed 0.027 acres of permanent wetland impacts
(Impact B) will occur from construction and grading associated with roads necessary to access
Building 3 & 4.

Avoidance and Minimization
Prior to site plan design, the applicant requested that a detailed wetland delineation be conducted
so that impacts to wetlands and "waters" could be minimized.
Impacts have been significantly minimized through revisions to the site plan, as well as
reconfiguration of the buildings and stormwater management pond. Wetland Impact A has been
minimized through the design and location of Building 2. Building 2 was originally planned 60'x
350' resulting in 0.209 acres of impacts but through design modification has been reduced to 45'x
300' resulting in only 0.055 acres of impacts. Building 1 was reduced in width and shifted west and
north, allowing Building 2 to be moved west to minimize impacts to Wetland A.
Wetland Impact B has been minimized through the positioning of Building 3 and modifying the
design of onsite stormwater BMPs and parking areas. Through the final proposed design, Wetland
Impact B was reduced to 0.027 acres of impacts, which originally was designed to eliminate
Wetland B entirely. The original site plan (August 2016) for the Southern Storage project has been
provided as an Appendix.
The revisions to the proposed site plan have resulted in the loss of approximately 2,150 sf of space,
which will result in a loss of total storage units upon construction. The proposed project has been
designed to minimize wetland impacts to the greatest extent possible while maintaining a feasible
project.
Mitigation
Since the proposed permanent impacts are less than 0.10 acres, the applicant does not propose
mitigation.
Stormwater Management Plan
The stormwater management plan consists of constructed wet detention pond with a secondary
BMP that will be an infiltration basin designed to infiltrate the difference between the 1 -year pre
and post peak flows. Onsite BMPs will discharge stormwater at non-erosive rates into a 30'
drainage easement. The stormwater management plan will be reviewed and approved by New
Hanover County.
The current request is for 0.082 acres of permanent wetland impacts (see the attached maps and
PCN for details).
Please feel free to call if you have questions or require additional information.
Sincerely
WithersRavenel

5. Endangered Species and Designated Critical Habitat (Corps Requirement)
5a. Will this project occur in or near an area with federally protected species or
® Yes ❑ No
habitat?
5b. Have you checked with the USFWS concerning Endangered Species Act
❑ Yes ® No
impacts?
❑ Raleigh
5c. If yes, indicate the USFWS Field Office you have contacted.
❑ Asheville
5d. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical
Habitat?
WR reviewed the NC Natural Heritage Program database, located at http://www.ncnhp.org/web/nhp/home to identify if
there were any known occurrences of endangered species on or near the proposed project. The review of the NHP data
identified six occurrences of federally listed threatened or endangered species within 1.0 miles of the project, see
attached NCNHP project review letter. Of the six federally listed species identified within 1.0 miles, five were marine
species for which there is no potential habitat within the project area, and therefore the project will have no effect on these
species. The only federally listed species within 1.0 miles of the project for which there was potential habitat for was the
northern long-eared bat. Site reviews did not identify any potential habitat for any federally protected species known to
occur in New Hanover County, except for the Northern Long Eared Bat.
Potential habitat for the northern Long-eared bat (NLEB) is listed as mature forest with trees over 3" DBH, which is used
for roosting during the day. The proposed project area contains forested areas with trees over 3" DBH, and therefore is
considered potential northern long eared bat habitat. The USFWS Final 4(d) rule for the Northern Long-Eared bat
specifies that tree removal within the White Nose Syndrome (WNS) Zone is not prohibited as long as it occurs more than
0.25 miles from known hibernacula and does not result in destroying known occupied maternity roost trees, or any other
trees within a 150 ft-radius from the maternity tree, during the pup season (June 1 — July 31). The proposed project is not
located within 0.25 miles of any known hibernacula, nor is there any known maternity roost trees present on the project.
Therefore, WR concludes that the project "may affect, but is not likely to adversely affect" the northern long-eared bat.
6. Essential Fish Habitat (Corps Requirement)
6a. Will this project occur in or near an area designated as essential fish habitat?
® Yes ❑ No
6b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Essential Fish Habitat?
W&R reviewed the NOAA Essential Fish Habitat online mapper, located at:
http://www.habitat.noaa.gov/protection/efh/efhmapper/index.html. The EFH mapper classifies the Myrtle Grove Sound,
located approximately 1700 If east of the proposed project, as Essential Fish Habitat. However, the project will have
sediment and erosion control measures in place to prevent sediment from escaping into downstream waters, as well as
onsite water quality treatment of stormwater per the county and state stormwater permits, which will prevent adverse
impacts to Essential Fish Habitat within the Myrtle Grove Sound.
7. Historic or Prehistoric Cultural Resources (Corps Requirement)
7a. Will this project occur in or near an area that the state, federal or tribal
governments have designated as having historic or cultural preservation
❑ Yes ® No
status (e.g., National Historic Trust designation or properties significant in
North Carolina history and archaeology)?
7b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact historic or archeological resources?
WR reviewed the NC State Historic Preservation Office's online database, located at: http://gis.ncdcr.gov/hpoweb/, to
determine if there were any known historic or cultural resources within or in the vicinity of the proposed project. The
database review did not identify any known resources within or in the vicinity of the proposed project.
