RE: Nationwide Permit 14 Application — TIP# U-5828
NC 54 Bypass (McCrimmon Parkway) Project, Phase 2
Town of Morrisville, Wake County, North Carolina
USACE AID: SAW-2014-02205
NCDWR Project #20160212
Dear Mr. Alsmeyer and Mr. Ridings:
On behalf of the Town of Morrisville, Kimley-Horn is submitting the attached application for
authorization under Nationwide Permit (NWP) 14 for the above referenced project. The project
proposes to construct Phase II of the NC 54 Bypass project (NCDOT TIP# U-5828) in Morrisville to
extend McCrimmon Parkway from Airport Boulevard to Aviation Parkway at Evans Road. The
proposed roadway will be four lanes wide with median to accommodate existing traffic loads and
reduce congestion along the NC 54 corridor.
The preferred alignment would construct approximately 1.45 miles of new location roadway through a
forested area of Morrisville that is currently managed for silviculture and was clear-cut in the last 5
years. The proposed alignment was selected to avoid streams and wetlands throughout the corridor
to the greatest extent practical. The alignment was located along a topographic ridge through the
corridor to avoid the large stream and floodplain systems located west of the corridor. However, the
project will result in unavoidable impacts to streams, riparian buffers, and wetlands within the project
corridor. Compensatory mitigation has been proposed for unavoidable impacts to streams and
wetlands at a 2:1 ratio. Impacts to the protected riparian buffer of streams SD and SH will exceed 150
LF or 1/3�d acre in size and are "allowable with mitigation" according to the Neuse River Basin
Riparian Buffer Rules. Mitigation has been proposed for the buffer zone 1 impacts at the required 3:1
ratio, and 1.5:1 for buffer zone 2.

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project.
Impacts to jurisdictional wetlands, streams, and riparian buffers have been avoided and minimized to the extent practical. The
alignment will tie into the existing section of McCrimmon Parkway to minimize new construction length and impacts. The
alignment has been located along the topographic ridge as much as practical to avoid larger stream and wetland systems
located in the bottomlands adjacent ot the project area. The alignment was also located intentionally to minimize earthwork
and grading required, reducing the required fill slopes along the alignment and limiting stream and wetland impacts.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques.
Impacts to streams within the corridor will be minimized to the extent practical throughout the construction process by avoiding
stream and wetland features where practical. Equipment staging and construction access will be located in upland areas
throughout the corridor, and silt fencing will be installed around the permitted limits of distrubance to ensure all equipment is
located within the project corridor at all times near stream and wetland areas. Sediment control measures will be used to
reduce stormwater impacts to receiving waters and minimze runoff from the construction sites.

5d. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical
Habitat?
According to the NC Natural Heritage Program Element Occurrence Database (updated October 2015), no known
occurrences of any federally threatened or endangered species within the study area. There is a bald eagle occurrence
on Lake Crabtree, located 3,700 feet northeast of the study area. Kimley-Horn biologists conducted a survey of the
project study area plus an additional 660 feet of the project limits per NCDOT bald eagle survey protocol. No bald eagles
or nests were identified during the survey. Due to the lack of individuals or nests, it has been determined that this project
will not affect bald eagle.
Suitable habitat is present within the project corridor for Michaux's sumac. Kimley-Horn biologists conducted pedestrian
surveys within the corridor on October 19, 2015 and observed no Michaux's sumac within the project corridor. There is
also suitable roosting habitat for the northern long-eared bat within the project corridor, however the USFWS has
developed a programmatic biological opinion (PBO) in conjunction with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), the
USACE, and NCDOT for the northern long-eared bat (NLEB) in eastern North Carolina. The PBO covers the entire
NCDOT program in Divisions 1-8, including all NCDOT projects and activities. The programmatic determination for NLEB
for the NCDOT program is "May Affect, Likely to Adversely Affect". The PBO provides incidental take coverage for NLEB
and will ensure compliance with Section 7 of the Endangered Species Act for five years for all NCDOT projects with a
federal nexus in Divisions 1-8, which includes Wake County, where TIP U-5828 is located.
Suitable habitat for dwarf wedgemussel does not exist in the study area. Only one large perennial stream (SA) is located
in the study, and the other streams are intermittent in nature and prone to drying out completely during drier months.
Stream SA has been impacted by human development in the upstream watershed and is deeply incised with bank
failures throughout the study area. SA is a tributary to Crabtree Creek, which is 303(d) listed less than 1.0 mile
downstream of the project area due to poor ecological/biological integrity of benthos and for a polychlorinated biphenyl
(PCB) fish tissue advisory. The study area is also separated from any downstream occurrences of this species by multiple
impoundments and the large dam and spillway creating Lake Crabtree. A review of NCNHP records, updated October
2015, indicates no known dwarf wedgemussel occurrences within 1.0 mile of the study area. Due to a lack of suitable
habitat and lack of documented occurrences within 1.0 mile of the project area, it has been determined that the proposed
project will have "No Effect" on dwarF wedgemussel.
Suitable habitat is not present within the project area for red-cockaded woodpecker. Forests in the study area are
successional mixed pine and hardwood forests with dense understories, and would not support red-cockaded
woodpecker foraging or nesting habitat.

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?
The North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office HPOWEB GIS Service (Accessed April 12, 2016) shows no
National Register or National Register Study List sites within the project study area. Multiple historic sites are located
approximately 0.60 miles southwest of the project corridor west of the intersection of NC 54 and Morrisville-Carpenter
Road. Due to the distance between the sites and the proposed project, and the nature of the project proposed, it is
unlikely that the project will have any effect on a historic or archaeological resource in the area.
8. Flood Zone Designation (Corps Requirement)
8a. Will this project occur in a FEMA-designated 100-year floodplain? ❑ Yes � No
8b. If yes, explain how project meets FEMA requirements: n/a
8c. What source(s) did you use to make the floodplain determination? There are no FEMA-designated 100-year floodplains
within the project area. The project area appears on FEMA DFIRM Panels 3720075500J, 3720075600J (effective
5/2/2006).

This document confirms that Town of Morrisville (Applicant) for the U-5828 — NC 54 Bypass
(McCrimmon Parkwav), Phase II(Project) has expressed an interest to utilize 1.92 Riparian Wetland
Mitigation Credits from the EBX-Neuse sponsored Neu-Con Wetland & Stream Umbrella Mitigation
Bank, specifically from the Arrington Bridge III Site in the Neuse HUC 03020201. As the official Bank
Sponsor, EBX-Neuse I, LLC, attests to the fact that mitigation is available for reservation at this time.
These mitigation credits are not considered secured, and consequently are eligible to be used for alternate
purposes by the Bank Sponsor, until payment in full is received from the Applicant resulting in the
issuance of a Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate by the bank acknowledging that the Applicant has
fully secured credits from the bank and the Banker has accepted full responsibility for the mitigation
obligation requiring the credits/units.
The Banker will issue the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate within three (3) days of receipt of the
purchase price. Banker shall provide to Applicant a copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate and
a documented copy of the debit of credits from the Bank Official Credit Ledger(s), indicating the permit
number and the resource type secured by the applicant. A copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer
Certificate, with an updated Official Credit Ledger will also be sent to regulatory agencies showing the
proper documentation.

SUBJECT: Action ID SAW- SAW-2014-02205
Mr. Blake Mills
Town of Morrisville
414 Aviation Parkway
Morrisville, North Carolina 27560
Dear Mr. Mills:
Reference the Department of the Army (DA) nationwide peimit verification (Action
ID SAW-2002-21120) issued to the Town of Morrisville (Town) on July 22, 2002, authorizing
the discharge of fill material into unnamed tributaries to Crabtree Creek, associated with the
construction of the Moirisville Community Park Stream & Riparian Buffer Mitigation Site (MCP
Site). Reference also the Department of the Army (DA) statutory nationwide permit verification
(Action ID SAW-2014-02205) of Apri125, 2016, and subsequent revised verification of
November 16, 2016, authorizing the Town to dischas•ge fill material into an unnamed tributary to
Crabtree Creek, associated with the construction of the NC 54 Bypass (McCrimmon Parkway)
Project, Phase 1(NCDOT TIP U-5828), with required mitigation of 36 credits from the MCP Site.
By e-mail dated August 25, 2016, Kimley-Horn, on behalf of the Town, requested use of the
MCP Site for compensatory mitigation for several Town road projects, including Phases 1 and 2
of the U-5828. The Corps and the NC Division of Water Resources reviewed the MCP Site with
Kimley-Horn on October 27, 2016, and found that the two tributaries have severe bank erosion
problems within the mitigation site, as well as failure or compromise of several mitigation srivctures,
areas of the buffer with limited growth, one area of the bu£fer with a mowing encroachment, and
severe sedimentation in Yhe stream bed.
Based on these observations at the mitigation site, the Corps will not confirm use of this site
for compensatary mitigation for any other permitted impacts, until the Town provides
compelling data documenting quantitative or qualitative measures of the desired aquatic
resource functions that the site provides, and documenting that the site will continue to function
over time in a changing landscape, as described in the April 10, 2008, Compensatory Mitigation
for Losses of Aquatic Resources; Final Rule (Mitigation Rule, 33 CFR Parts 325 and 332, and 40
CRR Part 230), and consistent with the October 24, 2016, Wilmington District St�eam and
Wetland Compensatoiy Mitigation Update, North Carolina Interagency Review Team.
In addition, the Corps will not confiim use of this permittee-responsible mitigation for more than
a single project (i.e., U-5828), unless a formal mitigation bank is established for use of this site, as
described in the Mitigation Rule.
When the Town has provided all of the necessary information, and the Corps has had time to
review it, we will inform you of the credits that will be available for use for Phase 2 of
U-5828.
Should you have any questions, please call Mr. Eric Alsmeyer at (919) 554-4884, ext., 23.

Dear. Mr. Mills:

Un 1 uesaay, July I U, ZU 1 Z, �ric Kulz with the llivision of Water Quality visited the above-
reterenced site with Da.-id Gainey� of S&EC f�r the �,u��.,ose of evaluating re�,lanted buffer areas
on the site. During an on-site meeting in January �f 200y, �ortions of the stream riparian butrer
wcrc aefi�icnt in or 1acKing woody vegetation reyuired ror stream mi�i�aiion and Neuse riparian
butter mitiga�ion projec�s. li was agreed ihat the ar�as in question would be repta�,ted, and that
v�sual mon►toring of the site would continue for tw� y�ars.
� he re�lantea areas appeared satistactory during our site meetin�, and the originaiiy-pian�ed
areas were very dense and woody vege�a�ion was robust and diverse. A closed cano�,y has
tormed over ►nost ofthe st�eam, and dee�,-rooted woody v�g�tation a�,�,ears to be �,r�viding good
bank stabilization.
lluantitative moniiorin� ot �he s�ream and butters was discon�int�ed in ZU 1 U alter rive yea� s.
tiased on �he resulis ar ihe monitoring, the stream mitigation at the s�te has been determin�d to
be successful; and DWQ considers the �r�,j��t clo��d out.
Similarly, all riparian butter areas appeared to be meetin� pertormance standards t�llowing
replan�in� and iwo years ot �isual muni�oring. No tunher veg�tation monitoring is �equired and
the buiter mit►satio,� �,�oject �s considered closed out.

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown far the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scares should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
highest quality.

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown far the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scares should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
highest quality.
Total Score (from reverse): 50 Comments:
Stream SD is a first order stream that begins downhill from wetland WB and empties into stream SA. No water was observed_
in the stream's channel during the site visit. The stream is sinuous and gets obvious flow during precipitation events.

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown far the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scares should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
highest quality.

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown far the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scares should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
highest quality.
Total Score (from reverse): 38 Comments:
Stream SK begins at culvert outlet of culvert that crosses under Aviation Parkway north of the intersection of Aviation Pkwy.

Describe Recorded Data (stream gauge, monitoring well, aerial photos, previous inspections), if available:
Remarks:
Wetland WD's hydrology is likely due to it's geomorphic position as a large bottomland adjactent to
a sizable stream (Stream SA). Wetland WD likely receives water from overland flow from the
surrounding hillslopes, groundwater, and whenever Stream SA overflows its banks.
Neither the water table nor soil saturation was observed within the upper 14" of the soil profile.

Many of the Pinus taeda appear to be dying which is likely because of the shady conditions at the site. Several of the
trees had buttressed trunks. There was an obvious difference in herbaceous vegetation within the wetland compared
to the surrounding upland areas. The wetland had an abundance of ferns whereas the upland areas were devoid of the

Remarks:
Wetland WJ-WET appears to receive hydrology through groundwater seepage from uphill pond and
surface flow off of adjacent hillslopes. The microtopography of WJ-WET along with seepage from
uphill pond contribute to the presence of surface water and saturated soils throughout much of the
wetland feature. At data point WJ-WET, the water table was recorded at approximately 8" and the
soil was saturated at the surface. Surface water was observed at 2-3" in depth within the wetland.

Remarks:
Soil was moist at 16" at dat point WQ-WET. However, no soil saturation or water table was
observed at the data point. Standing water was observed within the wetland at approximately 3"
deep. Hydrology mainly from groundwater and overland flow from stream SJ.

***Features with origins offsite
Explanation: The feature(s} listed above has or have been located on the Soil Survey of Vance County, North
Carolina or the most recent copy of the USGS Topographic map at a 1:24,000 scale. Each feature that is
checked "Not Subject" has been determined not to be a stream or is not present on the property. Features Yhat are
checked "SubjecP' have 6een located on the property and possess characteristies that qualify it to be a stream.
There may be other streams located on your property that do not show up on the maps referenced above but, still
may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and/or to the bivision of Water
Resources (DWR}.
This on-site determination shall expire five (5) years from the date of this letter. Landowners or afFecked parties
that dispute a deteemination made by the DWR or DelegaYed Lueal Authority may request a determination by the
Director. An appeal request must be made within siuty (60) days af date of this letter or Frora the date the affected
party (including downstream and/or adjacent owners) is notified of this letter. A request for a determinatioa by
the Director ahatl be referred to the Direetor in writing c/o Karen Higgins, DWR WeBSCaPe Unit, 1654 Mail
Service Center, Ra[eigh, NC 27599.
This determinaflon is final and binding unless, as detailed above, you ask for a hearing or appeal within sixty (60)
days.
The owner/fnture owners should natify the Division of Water Resources (including any other Local, State, and
Federal Agencies) of this decision coucerning any future wrrespandences regardiug the subject property (stated
