Can you provide a drawing that shows topo lines on it for the area we are talking about. Show a rough est. of where the road fill would have to be so we can see how much of the wetland would be impacted. Basically if its 10 square feet, that might be preferable to the perennial stream impact. If the wetland fill is small and you still want to try to justify the pipe in the dam breach, we would need more specific details about why the storm sewer pipe elevation could not be modified. As we discussed on the phone, there are impossibilities and inconveniences. I need to show its the first and not the second in order to issue a permit. All this goes to proving avoidance and minimization. I'm not saying your arguments aren't valid but I need to make sure that my files are sufficiently documented on the rare chance we are sued for issuing a permit.

All I'll need is a sketch of the pump-around - I'll put that and your language below into a revision and send it to USACE/DWQ. Another thing I DO need, though, is that confirmation (plat or just a statement from you) showing that there are no additional impacts from utility lines. I'll put all three of these pieces (coffer-dam, no road around pond, no utility impacts) into a 'modification to application' letter and get it to USACE/DWQ; I'd like to do this ASAP to avoid getting a formal "Request for More Information" letter.

Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts, permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate. Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet. 1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: Two permanent impacts to perennial streams, totaling 147 LE to place culverts, one for access necessary for maintenance of a stormwater pond, the other secondary to widening of the adjacent public road. One impact to an intermittent, "unimportant" stream, totaling 265 LE for parking areas and building pads. Five permanent wetland impacts, totaling 0.09 acre, for grade slopes for buildingpads and parking areas. reas. One temporary impact of 10 LF as necessary for coffer-dam pump-around during culvert installation at Stream Impact 41 (Stream impact 42 will have coffer-dam within existing upstream culvert).

Yes ® No Describe all impacts to isolated waters, and include the type of water (wetland or stream) and the size of the proposed impact (acres or linear feet). Please note that this section only applies to waters that have specifically been determined to be isolated by the USACE. 8. Pond Creation If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application. Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): Current land use in the vicinity of the pond: Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area: VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. Wet Detention Pond 41 relocated to avoid impacting intermittent stream. Stormwater conveyance pipes cross perennial stream at existing culvert with no impact. Headwall placed behind Bldg 7 to minimize grading impact. Headwall placed along eastern edge of former pond (near Bldg 3) to avoid impact. All riprap to minimum length necessary to achieve non-erosive velocities. Culvert (Impact 1) uses inlet `flare' to minimize impact. Grade slope behind Bldg 5 increased (2.5:1) to minimize impact. Culvert impact occurs in low-quality section of stream (breach in prior existing dam). Parking areas near Bldg 7 have locations dictated by fire codes; parking cannot be relocated behind Bldg 5 due to buffers or behind Bldg 1 due to setbacks. Temporary impact from coffer-dam pumparound will be removed immediately following culvert placement and restored to original grade and contours. VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. Updated 11/1/2005 Page 5 of 8 USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina (see DWQ website for most current version.). 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. No mitigation is proposed at this time. 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP website at http://www.nceep.net/pa.ges/inlieureplace.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page five and provide the following information: Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): Updated 11/1/2005 Page 6 of 8 IX.

If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ? No ? X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ) It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the applicant's discretion. 1. Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 02B .0243 (Catawba) 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )? Yes ? No 2. If "yes", identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer multipliers. Zone* Impact Multiplier Required 1 3 (2 for Catawba) 2 1.5 Total * Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from the top of the near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1. 3.

If so, describe the anticipated work, and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application. No future permits are anticipated for this project. VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts, permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate. Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet. 1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: Two permanent impacts to perennial streams, totaling 147 LE to place culverts, one for access necessary for maintenance of a stormwater pond, the other secondary to widening of the adjacent public road. One impact to an intermittent, "unimportant" stream, totaling 265 LE for parking areas and building pads. Five permanent wetland impacts, totaling 0.09 acre, for grade slopes for buildingpads and parking areas. reas. One temporary impact of 10 LF as necessary for coffer-dam pump-around during culvert installation at Stream Impact 41 (Stream impact 42 will have coffer-dam within existing upstream culvert). Updated 11/1/2005 Page 3 of 8 2. Individually list wetland impacts. Types of impacts include, but are not limited to mechanized clearing, grading, fill, excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams, separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding.

List the total acreage (estimated) of all existing wetlands on the property: 2.72 4. Individually list all intermittent and perennial stream impacts. Be sure to identify temporary impacts. Stream impacts include, but are not limited to placement of fill or culverts, dam construction, flooding, relocation, stabilization activities (e.g., cement walls, rip-rap, crib walls, gabions, etc.), excavation, ditching/straightening, etc. If stream relocation is proposed, plans and profiles showing the linear footprint for both the original and relocated streams must be included. To calculate acreage_ multiDly length X width- then divide by 43.560. Stream Impact Number (indicate on map) Stream Name Type of Impact Perennial or Intermittent?

Individually list all open water impacts (including lakes, ponds, estuaries, sounds, Atlantic Ocean and any other water of the U.S.). Open water impacts include, but are not limited to fill, excavation, dred6m4, floodin4, drainage, bulkheads, etc. Open Water Impact Name Waterbody Type of Waterbody Area of Site Number (if applicable) Type of Impact (lake, pond, estuary, sound, bay, Impact (indicate on ma) ocean, etc.) (acres) Total Open Water Impact (acres) Updated 11/1/2005 Page 4 of 8 6. List the cumulative impact to all Waters of the U. S. resulting from the project: Stream Impact (acres): 0.0165 Wetland Impact (acres): 0.0900 Open Water Impact (acres): Total Impact to Waters of the U. S. (acres) 0.1065 Total Stream Impact (linear feet): 422 7. Isolated Waters Do any isolated waters exist on the property? ? Yes ® No Describe all impacts to isolated waters, and include the type of water (wetland or stream) and the size of the proposed impact (acres or linear feet). Please note that this section only applies to waters that have specifically been determined to be isolated by the USACE. 8. Pond Creation If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application. Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): Current land use in the vicinity of the pond: Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area: VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. Wet Detention Pond 41 relocated to avoid impacting intermittent stream. Stormwater conveyance pipes cross perennial stream at existing culvert with no impact. Headwall placed behind Bldg 7 to minimize grading impact. Headwall placed along eastern edge of former pond (near Bldg 3) to avoid impact. All riprap to minimum length necessary to achieve non-erosive velocities. Culvert (Impact 1) uses inlet `flare' to minimize impact. Grade slope behind Bldg 5 increased (2.5:1) to minimize impact. Culvert impact occurs in low-quality section of stream (breach in prior existing dam). Parking areas near Bldg 7 have locations dictated by fire codes; parking cannot be relocated behind Bldg 5 due to buffers or behind Bldg 1 due to setbacks. Temporary impact from coffer-dam pumparound will be removed immediately following culvert placement and restored to original grade and contours. VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams.
