Re: Tarboro Edgecombe Municipal Airport - Part 77 Transitional Surface Hazardous Tree Removal
Tar-Pamlico Buffer Rules Authorization
Ms. Karoly:
Please find enclosed five (5) copies of the Pre-Construction Notification Application Form as well as all
accompanying drawings for the above referenced project. This Application is being submitted for written
authorization of impacts to the Tar-Pamlico Riparian Buffer as Allowable (per the DWQ Memorandum, Vegetation
Management as it Pertains to Airport Facilities in the Neuse, Catawba, and Tar-Pamlico Protected Riparian
Buffers dated May 9, 2006).
Within the buffer areas only tree removal would occur, no grubbing, fill, or development would occur in this area.
The trees would be cleared using a Shinn Systems rotating drum head hydro axe mounted on a tracked excavator to
grind all the material and broadcast it back over the cleared area, using logging mats to minimize disturbance while
leaving the stumps and any other undergrowth intact. Additionally, this particular piece of equipment would be able
to reach into Zone 1 buffer areas to minimize soil and vegetation disturbance. The contactor and consultant will be
available to discuss any concerns or suggestions that DWQ may have regarding clearing techniques.
This work is being performed to comply with FAA safety regulations (defined in Code of Federal Regulations Part
77) regarding the Transitional Slope at the Airport. To minimize risk to life and property, the FAA requires that the
area extending beyond the end of the sides of runway, known as the Transitional Slope be kept clear of any
obstructions.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,

9. Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project
at the time of this application:
Land use consists of grassy maintained airport facilities with adjacent farmland, wooded
areas, and scattered residential areas. Site and adjacent land are largely rural in nature.
Photos of the project area and adjacent areas are attached in Appendix A.
10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The project includes removal of trees within the riparian buffer of two modified natural
streams (Streams B and D). The limits of the proposed project and locations of jurisdictional
resources are shown on Figures 2 and 3. Stream B was determined to be subject the Tar-
Pamlico Buffer Rules in the field by Mr. Martin Richmond of NCDWQ on August 11, 2008
and Stream D was determined to be subject to the Tar-Pamlico Buffer Rules in the field by
Mr. Mike Horan of NCDWQ on June 6, 2006. Additionally, the wooded swamp abutting the
Tar River in the eastern project area was determined by Mr. Horan to be an `open water' and
subject to the Tar-Pamlico Buffer Rules. This feature can be seen on Figures 2 and 3 (at the
eastern terminus of Stream D). Copies of the Buffer Determination Letters are attached in
Appendix B. These waters are all unnamed tributaries to the Tar River.
Jurisdictional wetlands in the project area were delineated using the 1987 United States Army
Corps of Engineers Delineation Manual. Jurisdictional wetlands within the eastern project
area were delineated in April 2006 and the wetland boundaries were surveyed by a
Professional Land Surveyor. These boundaries were approved in a Jurisdictional
Determination (Action ID SAW-2006-40468) on June 29, 2006 A copy of the Jurisdictional
Determination is attached in Appendix C. Additional jurisdictional areas outside of the limits
of the previous Jurisdictional Determination were delineated on August 10-11 2008 and the
boundaries were surveyed using a sub-meter accurate Trimble Geo-XH with an external pole
antenna. These wetland boundaries (including the boundaries from the previous delineation)
were imported into the project design so the locations could be shown on the construction
plans. Since no fill would be placed in, and no grubbing would occur in jurisdictional
wetlands a Section 404 Permit is not required. Therefore a formal Jurisdictional
Determination for the Transitional Surface clearing was not requested However Mr.
Thomas Brown of the USACE performed a field visit on August 11, 2008 to review the
wetland limits. Mr. Brown indicated that the wetland boundaries were a reasonable
representation of the jurisdictional areas within the project area Furthermore since the
wetland boundaries have not been officially approved via a written Jurisdictional
Determination, the wetland boundaries would be buffered by 50-feet from the grubbing areas
to avoid unintentional impacts by equipment operators This wetland limits and the 50-foot
buffer is shown on Figure 3.
Within the buffer areas and wetlands only tree removal would occur, no rubbing fill or
development would occur in this area. The construction limits are shown on Figures 2 and 3
The trees would be cleared using a Shinn Systems rotating drum head hydro axe mounted on
a tracked excavator to grind all the material and broadcast it back over the cleared area using
logging mats to minimize disturbance while leaving the stumps and any other undergrowth
intact. Leaving the root mats stumps and undergrowth/brush would help to preserve the
integrity of the soil. Leaving the mulch from the tree grinding would also hem to protect the
Page 7 of 15
soil while the area is re-establishing. Grinding the trees in place would also minimize
impacts related to log removal, and would promote the growth of successional vegetation
which would further preserve soil integrity. Additionally, this piece of equipment
would be able to reach into Zone 1 buffer areas (without actually entering it) to minimize soil
and vegetation disturbance. Areas that cannot be accessed by the excavator would be
manually hand. The contactor and consultant will be available to discuss any concerns
or suggestions that NCDWQ may have regarding clearing techniques. As shown in the
attached photographs some areas of the project were timbered by the previous landowner
prior to the property acquisition. These areas would be treated as shown on Figures 2 and 3
previously timbered areas in wetlands and riparian buffers would still be treated as described
above.
In order to gain access to the clearing areas a temporary crossing of Streams B D and
wetlands would be required. The location of these crossings is shown on Figure 3. These
temporary crossings would not place fill within the stream channels/wetlands and would
completely span the channel using timber mats. The temporary crossing of Stream B and the
wetland area would utilize an existing logging roa_ d (as shown on Figure 3) The temporary
crossing of Stream D would occur in an area that was timbered by the previous landowner, as
shown in Photographs 3 and 4 Therefore temporary impacts to the riparian buffer from this
crossing would be minimal. The temporary crossings will be removed after clearing is
complete and the areas would be allowed to naturally re-vegetate.
11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work:
Tree removal is required to comply with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) safety
regulations pertaining to the Part 77 Transitional Surface. The Part 77 Transitional Surface
is defined in Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 14, Part 77 as surfaces that extend
outward and upward at right angles to the runway centerline and the runway centerline
extended at a slope of 7 to 1 from the sides of the primary surface and from the sides of the
approach surfaces. For the Tarboro Edgecombe County Airport the Part 77 Transitional
Surface extends 250 feet on each side from the runway (the width of the approach surface)
centerline upward and outward at a right angle and then extends at a slope of 7 to 1
Obstructions are defined in CFR, Title 14, Part 77 as an existing object a mobile object
and/or a future object would be an obstruction to air navigation if it is of greater height than
the surface of a takeoff and landing area of an airport or any imaginary surface established
under §77.25, §77.28, or §77.29 (which includes the Transitional Surface).
Currently, existing trees penetrating the Transitional Slope present a hazard to aircraft and a
threat to the lives of those onboard. Additionally, future growth of existing trees beneath the
approach slope presents a future safety hazard. Therefore in order to eliminate this present
and future safety hazard and comply with FAA regulations the trees must be removed The
removal of the trees in the areas parallel to the runway would also reduce the effects of wind
shear on arriving and departing aircraft which has been noted as a hazard from ip lots
utilizing the Airport.

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.
Isolated waters exist on the property (determined in field by USACE), however no impacts to
these waters are proposed. Refer to attached Plat from USACE in the attached Jurisdictional
Determination (Appendix Q.
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.): No ponds would be created.
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.): No ponds would be created.
Current land use in the vicinity of the pond: No ponds would be created.
Size of watershed draining to pond: NONE Expected pond surface area: NONE
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.
In order to comply with FAA safety regulations complete avoidance of impacts to the riparian
buffers would not be possible. However, to minimize impacts to the riparian buffers and soils
heavy equipment would be kept out of Zone 1 and would use logging mats in other areas
Additionally, impacts to the riparian buffer would be minimized by leaving stumps and
undergrowth. By doing so, the root mats would be left intact which would minimize potential
impacts to the soil. Furthermore the felled trees would be removed from the buffer (by
grinding), which would facilitate growth of successional vegetation The growth of successional
vegetation in these areas would further minimize impacts to the riparian buffer by maintaining
the integrity of the soil. Also mulch from the tree grinding would temporarily protect soil until
new vegetation is established.
Page 11 of 15

No rubbing, fill, or development would occur in the riparian buffer, and the areas where trees
were removed would be allowed to re-vegetate naturally.
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.
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, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmi4ide.html.
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.
The proposed project consists of the removal of hazardous trees from the Part 77 Transitional
Slope of the runway to comply with FAA safety regulations (Code of Federal Regulations
Part 77). In the NCDWQ Memorandum Vegetation Management as it Pertains to Airport
Facilities in the Neuse, Catawba, and Tar-Pamlico Protected Riparian Buffers dated May 9
2006, vegetation management required for FAA regulations was added to the Table of Uses
as Allowable. Therefore since the project is necessary to comply with FAA safety
regulations mitigation would not be required. Additionally, the clearing standards set forth in
the Memorandum would be followed.
Page 12 of 15
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
[phone] 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://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please
check the appropriate box on page three and provide the following information:

coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No
3. 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.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 213 .0233
(Meuse), 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 ?
Page 13 of 15
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
(square feet) Multiplier Required

additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.
3. If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e.,
Donation of Property, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, or Payment into the
Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as identified
within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0244, or .0260.
The proposed project consists of the removal of hazardous trees from the Part 77 Transitional
Surface of the runway to comply with FAA safety regulations (Code of Federal Regulations
Part 77). In the NCDWQ Memorandum, Vegetation Management as it Pertains to Airport
Facilities in the Neuse. Catawba, and Tar-Pamlico Protected Riparian Buffers dated May 9
2006 vegetation management required for FAA regulations was added to the Table of Uses
as Allowable. Therefore, since the project is necessary to comply with FAA safety
regulations, and guidance set forth in the above Memorandum would be followed mitigation
would not be required.
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
Describe impervious acreage (existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site. Discuss
stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands downstream from
the property. If percent impervious surface exceeds 20%, please provide calculations
demonstrating total proposed impervious level.
The project site consists entirely of pervious areas and construction of impervious surfaces is not
included as part of the proposed project. Therefore the project site is currently 100 percent
pervious and would not change as part of the proposed project
XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
Sewage/wastewater disposal would not be necessary with the proposed action
XIII. Violations (required by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H.0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application? Yes ? No
Page 14 of 15
XIV. Cumulative Impacts (required by DWQ)
Will this project (based on past and reasonably anticipated future impacts) result in additional
development which could impact nearby downstream water quality? Yes ? No
If yes, please submit a qualitative or quantitative cumulative impact analysis in accordance with
the most recent North Carolina Division of Water Quality policy posted on our website at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. If no, please provide a short narrative description:
This project consists of tree removal to comply with FAA regulations. No development would
occur with this project, and capacity at the Airport would not increase as a result of the proposed
work. The proposed project has not had any past development and is not likely to directly lead
to future development at or near the airportAdditionally due to FAA safety restrictions (as
defined in, FAA Advisory Circular 150/5300-13 development is not likely to occur in the
project area since the Runway Protection Zone (RPZ) Runway Safety Area (RSA) Approach
Slope, and Transitional Surface encompass the project area Therefore no secondary or
cumulative impacts are anticipated with the implementation of the proposed project
XV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
There are no other known constraints limiting the work schedule

determination by the Director shall be referred to the Director in writing c/o Cyndi Karoly, DWQ
Wetlands/401 Unit, 2321 Crabtree Blvd., Raleigh, NC 27604-2260. Individuals that dispute a determination
by the DWQ or Delegated Local Authority that "exempts" a surface water from the buffer rule may ask for
an ad judicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. Applicants are
hereby notified that the 60-day statutory appeal time does not start until the affected party (including
downstream and adjacent landowners) is notified of this decision. DWQ recommends that the applicant
