The impacts associated with the proposed access road are as follows: 0.86 acres of wetland impacts, 19 perennial stream crossings totaling 190 linear feet of impact and 3,800 square feet of Zone 1 and 5,700 square feet of Zone 2 impacts. As part of the application review, this Office noted the following project details that would need to be addressed prior to a complete review of the application can be completed: • No Coordination with US Army Corps of Engineers - A complete review of the project cannot be conducted until the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has verified all stream and wetland locations for the proposed road. Per the application, the proposed impacts were generated from the NC GIS Map. • No Coordination with the Division of Water Resources - The DWR will need to perform stream determination request for application of Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules. • Please provide details regarding avoidance and minimization of stream, wetlands and buffer impacts. • Please enumerate all wetland and stream impacts including fill slopes/ dissipater pads/ other impacts on the site plan and clearly label impacts (Wetland/ Stream Impact 1, etc.). The Division recommends highlighting by hatching or shading all impacts areas for temporary impact areas and permanent impact areas. • Please provide cross section details showing the provisions for aquatic life passage associated with your stream crossi ngs. • Per condition 11 3, compensatory mitigation may be required for losses of greater 150 linear feet of stream and/or 1 acre of wetlands. Please provide this Office with a mitigation plan either to include payment to a local mitigation bank or in -lieu fee program or on-site mitigation. • Please provide plan details demonstrating that diffuse flow can be maintained through the entire Neuse River Riparian Buffer. This Office recommends a withdraw of the application until the items detailed above can be addressed. In addition, this Office recommends a meeting with the DWR and US ACE to discuss the scope of the project.
