RE: 401 WQC/Nationwide Permit 39 Application; Additional Information
BPG Properties, Commerce Drive; Leland Industrial Park; Brunswick County, NC
DWQ Project#: 08-1407
Dear Chad:
Thank you for your letter dated October 31, 2008 in which you request additional
information about the 401 Water Quality Certification application we submitted for the BPG
Properties, Commerce Drive Project located in Leland Industrial Park. Below is a response to
each of your comments.
1. Please re-submit your site plans on full plan sheets at a scale of no smaller than I" =50'
with topographic contours shown.
RESPONSE: Enclosed are site plan maps at a scale of 1" = 100'. We found that printing the
site plan at a scale of 1" = 50' would require two large match sheets and did not improve the
visibility of the impact area. The impact area is printed at a scale of 1" = 50'. Contours of the
impact area are provided. Please note that in response to comments from the ACOE, the
applicant was able to reduce permanent impacts to 0.062 acre of wetlands and temporary
impacts to 0.017 acre of wetlands. Enclosed is a revised PCN form.
2. As mentioned in Part N of the PCN, this project will require some form of a Stormwater
Management Plan. A State Stormwater Permit would satisfy this requirement. Please
note that until a Stormwater Management Plan or Permit is approved by the DWQ,
impacts to waters of the State should not occur.
RESPONSE: The project engineer is currently preparing the stormwater plan for this site.
The applicant agrees that no impacts to waters of the State will occur until this plan is
approved by DWQ.
3. Please locate any planned sewer lines on the site plan.

3805 Wrightsville Ave., Suite 15, Wilmington, NC 28403 • P.O. Box 2522, Wilmington, NC 28402
RESPONSE: All sewer lines will be located within the proposed development footprint as
shown on the site plan. Please note that LMG incorrectly listed the need for temporary
wetland impacts as utility installation. However, the temporary impacts are needed as a road
construction corridor, not for utilities. Utilities will be installed within the roadway
shoulders.
4. Please provide cross sectional drawings of the proposed impact areas.
RESPONSE: A revised site plan and cross section are enclosed.
I hope this response adequately addresses your concerns. Please contact me if you have
any questions. Thank you for your assistance with this project.
Sincerely,
Kim Williams

RE: Nationwide Permit 39 Application; Additional Information
BPG Properties, Commerce Drive; Leland Industrial Park; Brunswick County, NC
Action ID# SAW-2007-2958
Dear Kim:
Thank you for your letter dated October 1, 2008 in which you request additional
information about the NWP 39 application we submitted for the BPG Properties, Commerce
Drive Project located in Leland Industrial Park. Below is a response to each of your comments.
Based on your Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) and site plan, it appears that you
will exceed the Loss of Waters limit authorized by Nationwide Permit (NWT) 39. Please
explain how hydrology will be maintained to on-site wetlands post construction. This
office recommends revising your storm-water management system to ensure that all
wetlands on-site retain hydrologic input.
Response: According to the project engineer, Mr. Phil Norris, the permanent pool elevation
of the stormwater retention ponds shall be higher than the water level of adjacent wetlands.
Therefore, these ponds are not anticipated to drain wetlands located nearby. The stormwater
management plan for this project is currently being developed.
2. The site plan you submitted is unclear, please address the following issues:
a. Please provide a detailed plan view and cross section of the proposed impact
area. The information you submitted is insufficient.
Response: A revised site plan and cross section are enclosed.
b. Your PCN does not include any impacts to wetlands associated with the removal
of the existing culvert. Please explain how you propose to avoid impacts to
wetlands at that location while still being able to widen the road.
Response: The temporary impact listed under the Stream section (pg. 8) accounts for
impacts associated with the culvert replacement. As we discussed over the phone, the
existing culvert has collapsed and is not functioning (see attached pictures). A new
www.lmgroup.net • info@lmgroup.net • Phone: 910.452.0001 • Fax: 910.452.0060
3805 Wrightsville Ave., Suite 15, Wilmington, NC 28403 • P.O. Box 2522, Wilmington, NC 28402
culvert will be installed that is located approximately 40' to the north. The new
position was selected based on topographic information collected from the area. This
position will improve flow to the stream and improve the overall health of the system.
We have classified this impact as temporary because the culvert will be replaced by a
new and better functioning culvert.
3. Based on your application, it does not appear that you avoided and minimized impacts to
waters and wetlands of the US to the maximum extent practicable (NWP General
Condition 20 (a)).
a. It appears based on the typical cross section you submitted that you have not
minimized this crossing to the maximum extent practicable. This office
recommends looking at 2:1 slopes and minimizing the road width to further
minimize impacts.
Response: The proposed road will have a 30'-wide pavement and six foot shoulders.
This cannot be reduced because the road will be providing access to large trucks and
narrowing the road or shoulders would create potential safety issues. However, the
applicant was able to reduce the slope of the road from 3:1 to 2:1. This has reduced
permanent impacts to 0.062 acre of wetlands and temporary impacts to 0.017 acre of
wetlands. Enclosed is a revised PCN form.
b. Please explain the purpose and need for the proposed temporary impacts. Based
on the plans submitted, it appears this impact could be avoided by putting utilities
closer to the roadway.
i. Please be aware that permanently maintained rights-of-way may require
compensatory mitigation (NWP General Condition 20 (h)).
Response: LMG incorrectly listed the need for this temporary wetland impact as
utility installation. However, the temporary impacts are needed as a road construction
corridor, not for utilities. Utilities will be installed within the roadway shoulders.
A 5'-wide work corridor is needed to allow heavy earth-moving equipment to
construct the road. This temporary impact will be restored to grade and seeded with a
wetland seed mix as soon as road construction is complete. Please see the enclosed
restoration plan.
4. Your mitigation plan is not accepted. Compensatory mitigation will be required for this
project.
a. Please explain why Mitigation Batiks were not considered.
Response: According to information obtained from the NC EEP website, there are no
private mitigation banks located within the Cape Fear River Basin.
2
b. Please explain why you believe 2.7 payment to NC EEP for riparian wetlands is
appropriate for 0.09 acre of impacts to jurisdictional wetlands and 86 linear feet
of impact to Rowel Branch, a natural stream.
Response: As mentioned above and in the PCN form, the impacts to the stream
should be considered temporary because this is a replacement of an existing, damaged
culvert. The new culvert will improve water flow and aquatic function in this stream.
Because it is a temporary impact and the new culvert will improve stream quality, we
believe no stream mitigation should be required.
Permanent wetland impacts have been reduced to 0.062 acre. The applicant plans to
buy into the NC EEP for the restoration of 0.25 acre of riparian wetlands, which is a
4:1 ratio. We believe this is sufficient mitigation.
i. This office recommends 2:1 payment for impacts to riparian wetlands and 2:1
payment for impacts to Rowel Branch. Further, this office recommends
preservation of the remaining waters and wetlands of the US in the project
area as well as upland buffers to provide further protection to Rowel Branch
and its riparian wetlands as well as to enhance their functions.
Response: Because the applicant has reduced permanent wetland impacts to 0.062
acre and has proposed buying into the NC EEP for the restoration of 0.25 acre of
riparian wetlands, we do not believe any further mitigation, including preservation,
should be required.
I hope this response adequately addresses your concerns. Please contact me if you have
any questions. Thank you for your assistance with this project.

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. The applicant has attempted to
minimize wetland and stream impacts to the greatest extent possible However, a wetland/stream
system runs the entire width of the property and some impact was needed in order to gain access
to the site. The proposed road has been located in the footprint of the existing road to reduce
impacts. Some temporary impacts are needed during the construction of the road as a work
corridor. These wetlands will be restored to grade and allowed to revegetate No wetland or
stream impact is needed for the construction of the building itself. Please note that the existing
culverts at this road crossing have collapsed and are not functional They will be removed and
the new RCP's will be placed at a location that more closely reflects the current movement of the

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.ne.us/newetlands/strmQide.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.
To mitigate for the proposed permanent wetland impacts (0.062 ac) the applicant proposes to
buy into the NC EEP for the restoration of 0.25 acre of riparian wetlands. This is a 4:1 ratio.
Because stream impacts are temporary, no mitigation is proposed.
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://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please
check the appropriate box on page five and provide the following information:
