Ian and James -
Just on the off chance that your servers didn't like the file size (that's the only thing I can think of Ian), I removed
the map picture that I had included in this email originally.
Let me know if you have any questions...
Thanks!
Nik

Good morning James and Ian.
I'm just re-confirming with you both regarding tomorrow's meeting. Below is a quick "pic" of where we will be
tomorrow. You can actually see the dirt road (located on the right just south of Derby Lane which I've marked
with a star) where we will meet. There is a gate on that dirt road that will be opened for us tomorrow.
Directions from Raleigh: take US 1 (Capital Blvd) north toward Youngsville; turn right onto Holden Road/NC
-1147 (Ian this will be about 17 miles from your office; James, this should be about 8 miles from your office
dependant on where you get onto Capital Blvd); continue straight on Holden Road (which turns into East/West
Main Street/ NC 96) through Youngsville; continue straight (Holden Road becomes Tarboro Road); about % of a
mile ahead will be Cedar Creek Road; turn tt* onto Cedar Creek Road; follow for almost 3 miles and'the dirt
road pictured below will be on the right. W
James, I've also attached the USACE stream forms as you requested - these are labeled to reflect the stream
labels that appear on Fig. 1 of the IP application package. We've also included an Upland and Wetland Data
form (per your request). Please note that these forms are from about 7 years ago when S&EC was first
involved in this project. The wetland form is comparable of the wetlands to the south of the property and the
pieces within the proposed pond location. If you would like to do more wetland forms while we are on site
tomorrow, we can certainly accommodate that as well. This wetland form is not equivalent of the large wetland
tract that is being proposed to be preserved and enhanced; that is a really nice wetland (if you ignore the cows
trampling through it, leaving "presents" wherever they go). That is the reason that we are proposing
preservation and enhancement by using the fences to keep the cows out.
Please feel free to call if you have any questions or concerns. My mobile number appears below and I will have
it with me tomorrow in case anyone gets turned around.
Thanks and see you all tomorrow.
Nik

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 for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores 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 for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores 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
