Dear Ms. Karoly:

y&TLANDS ANCI STORM A!A? h BRANCH
Enclosed is an updated application and fee supporting maps for the wetland impact request on
Peppermill drive in Wilson County. I have addressed your comments as follows:
1. Building envelopes have been added to the lots to show the buildable areas.
2. A site plan of this phase has been added at 1 "=50' scale for your use. A larger overall plan
of Eagle Farm Development has been added as well for your use.
3. The proposed house and driveway placements have been revised to minimize impacts, the
tables have been updated on the application form. Driveway pipes have been added to allow
for wetland connectivity.
4. A small culver has been added to across peppermill drive to allow for wetland connections
5. This section of Eagle Farm drains to an existing pond that is no directly connected to a
riparian buffer. No level spreader is proposed. The development is under 24% there is no
need for treatment.
6. No level spreader form enclosed since no level spreader is proposed.
7. Contour lines not shown on the storm outlet since no BMP or level spreader is proposed.
8. A clear Wilson County Soil map is enclosed with this submittal.
Please notify me immediately if I need to provide any other information.

connect subdivision to surrounding parcels. Wetlands are at end o existing road and it is not
possible to re-locate connection to avoid the impact. Right-of-way has been recorded, sanitary
sewer alreadv exists in this area.
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/stnngide.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.
Request payment to NCEEP if mitigation is requested.
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
