September 19, 2012
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) requests a modification of the
above referenced permits due to revised utility plans. The utility company (Cape Hatteras
Electric, or CHEC) is preparing to move underground and overhead electric lines. Originally this
was going to be accomplished via an open cut trench on the south end of the project (Site 4).
Utility plans have now been revised to directionally bore the underground line work rather than
open cut, and plan to access the site from NC 12 roadside. This will reduce the temporary impact
footprint but will increase the need for hand clearing of wetlands (for working off of timber
mats) around their work area. Additionally, boring rather than trenching will reduce the overall
duration of the work, and the duration is a very important factor in being able to perform this
work while CHEC provides electricity to Hatteras Island via backup generators.

be n�ted. Tiie permittee shali cpmply with the vn-site wetiand initigation pl�n. Non-traditional rnitigatiar► is
proposed as explaineci belaw,
a. Per the propQsed mitigatian plen, the 1VCC�{Ji'1', in �onperation with the hlatianai 1'ark Service,
propases to bring under control apprpximatety 50 acras of Phragtirtles uusfralis within an a�a
arannd a waterfowl pond facated on National Park Servica praperty within the Cape Natteras
IVational Seashore near th� Bndie lsland Lighthouse. The pr�posed a�rea was �nce dominated hy
Sparcltau and other benefcial speeies but Is curr�ntly dominated by Phragmit�s. The goal is to
reduee the extent Phragmites auch that it oan t�e managed more cansisten#ly and allnw SpQrtina end
other more beneficiaf species ta daminate the acreage once again, essentially rest�ring the wetland.
Tiie NC�WQ has agreed I+� a 5:1 r�tio of restoret(an. Therefore, no fess ihan 2,55 acres will haYe to
be c�nsidered successful to meet the required miligatian E'ar impacts ro U,51 acres af impacted

a. Per the proposed mitigation plan, the NCDOT, in caoperation with the National Paric 5ervice, proposes to
bring under control approacirnately 5fl acres of Phragmites australis.within an area around a waterfowl pand
iocated on National Paric Service praperty within the Cape Hatteras National Seashore near the Bodie
managed riiore consistently and allaw Spartir�a and other more ben�ficial species to dominate the acreage
once again, essentially restoring the wetland.
The NCDWQ has agreed to a 5:1 ratio of restoratioa. Therefore, no less than 2,55 acres will har+e to be
considered successful to meet the required mitigatiori for impacts ta 0.51. acres of impacted wetlands.
5hould less than 2.55 acres of restoration be considered unsuccessful, the NCDDT may be required ta
prapose other rnitigatiQn possibilities to address the deficit. Any excess mitigation considered successful by
the NCI?WQ and other resvurce agencies may be used to offset iz�►pacts of future projects pending
NCDWQ appraVal.
Full restoration of the area will be considered successful if all success criteria stated in the appro�ed
mitigation plan are met, unless the NCDWQ decides otherwise. Pri�ary success criteria include a reductian
in the or+erall Phragmites car+erage from year to year; final aerial cor+erage oidense Phragrrrites shall be
less than 10 acres with stems less than three (3} feet tall. The NCDDT will pro�ide an arxnual nnonitaring
report to the NCDWQ for reView and comrnent during each manitoring year. The NCDWQ reserves the
right to an onsite inspection at any time prior to official closeuut.
This language is hereby corrected ta read as follows:
a. �er the proposed mitigation plan, the NCDDT, in cooperation with the National Fark Service, proposes to
bring under control apprroximately SU acres of Phragmites aust�a2is within an area around a waterfovyl pand
located on National Park 5ervir.e property within the Cape Hatteras Natianal Seashore near the Badie
Island Lighthous�;: The proposed area was once dominated by Spartina.and other beneficial species but is
currently �ominated by Phragmites. The goal is ta reduce the extent Phragmites such that it can be �
managed more consistently and allow Spartina and ather mare beneficial species to dotninate the acreage
once again, essentially restoring the wetland.
� The NCDWQ has agreed to a 5:1 ratio of restoratian. Therefore, no less fhan 2.50 acres will have to be
considered successful to zrieet the required mitigation for innpacts to 0.50 acres of impacted wetlands.
Should less than 2.54 acres Qf restoration be considered suecessful, the NCDdT may be required to
prnpose other mitigatian passibilities to address the deficit. A.ny excess mitigation considered successful by
the NCDWQ and other resaurce agencies may be used tp offset iaxipacts of future projects pending
- NCDWQ appro�al.
Full restoration of the �rea will be considered successful if all success criteria stated in the appror+ed
mitigation plan are met, unlessthe NCDW Q decides otherwise. Prirz�ary success criteria include a reduction
in the overall Phragmites co�erage frotn year to year; final aerial co�erage of dense Phrag�rrites shall be
less than 10 acres with steins less than three (3) feet tall. The NCDOT will pror�ide an annual manitaring
