Project Description
3a.
Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
Landuse is considered urban and an existing dirt trail is present. The topography is characterized by a
narrow floodplain with steep sideslopes.
3b.
Attach an 8'/2 x 11 excerpt from the most recent version of the USGS topographic map indicating the location of
the site
3c.
Attach an 8'/ x 11 excerpt from the most recent version of the published County NRCS Soil Survey Map
depicting the project site.
3d.
List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
335 linear feet of perennial/125 linear feet intermittent
3e.
Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
Provide a paved greenway trail connecting the existing paved Tanyard Branch trail to Tanbark Branch
Park.
3f.
Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The project involves installing a 10 -foot wide asphalt greenway connecting Tanyard Branch trail to Tanbark
Branch Park. The project is approximately 0.33 miles with 0.30 miles of paved greenway and 0.03 miles of
boardwalk. The project is utilizing a retaining wall to redirect drainage away from the paved greenway and
minimize erosion. The contractor selected for the project will determine the equipment used on the project.
Trail
contractors generally use small paving machines and earth moving equipment which results in smaller
impacts to the project area than traditional highway construction equipment. Boardwalks will be constructed
utilizing a "top down" approach to avoid disturbance to the wetland ground surface during construction.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
The greenway was designed to avoid impacts to streamside buffers as well as the adjacent steep slopes
defining the floodplain boundaries. Designs also attempt to reduce vegetation impacts by following the
existing dirt path. Based on these avoidance and minimization measures, the design exhibits an
impervious surface impact of 0.07 acres in Zone 1 and 0.10 acres in Zone 2. The remainder of the impacts
is associated with construction of the trail.
There are five outfalls within the buffer and four of these have diffuse flow (< 2cfs). The fifth outfall is
located at the existing bridge of Tanbark Branch and outfalls into existing rip rap. The existing rip rap
extends from the proposed trail to the top of bank.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
The limits of disturbance are being considered part of the impacts for the construction of the greenway
and equipment will not impact buffer outside of the labeled impacts on the permit drawings.

constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). If you have any questions regarding this
determination and/or the Corps regulatory program, please contact Craig Brown at 919-5544884 x35 or
Craig.J.BrownAusace.army.mil.
C. Basis For Determination: There maybe streams within the proiect area that maybe relatively permanent
waterways (RPW) exhibiting ordinary high water marks & bed and bank features and/or wetlands that may
exhibit wetland criteria as defined in the 1987 Corps Wetland Delineation Manual and appropriate Regional
Supplement. The approximate location of possible iurisdictionaI Waters of the U.S. are shown on the attached
aerial photo titled: "Jurisdictional Features Map — Tanvard Branch — Orange County, NC".
D. Remarks: This was a desktop JD.
E. Attention USDA Program Participants
This delineation/determination has been conducted to identify the limits of Corps' Clean Water Act jurisdiction for the
particular site identified in this request. The delineation/determination may not be valid for the wetland conservation
provisions of the Food Security Act of 1985. If you or your tenant are USDA Program participants, or anticipate participation
in USDA programs, you should request a certified wetland determination from the local office of the Natural Resources
Conservation Service, prior to starting work.
F. Appeals Information (This information applies only to approved jurisdictional determinations as indicated in
B. above)
This correspondence constitutes an approved jurisdictional determination for the above described site. If you object to this
determination, you may request an administrative appeal under Corps regulations at 33 CFR Part 331. Enclosed you will find a
Notification of Appeal Process (NAP) fact sheet and request for appeal (RFA) form. If you request to appeal this
determination you must submit a completed RFA form to the following address:
