Box 33068 Raleigh, North Carolina 27636.3068 2 0 0 8 1 8 30 On behalf of the Town of Wake Forest, Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. is submitting the enclosed Preconstruction Notification Application for authorization to construct the above reference project under Nationwide Permit Number 14 and General Water Quality Certification Number 3704. The proposed project includes the construction of the Taylor Street extension, located in Wake Forest, Wake County, North Carolina. The new roadway will connect existing Taylor Street on the south to Wait Avenue (NC 98 Business). The extension will also provide a direct route from the new Town of Wake Forest Town Hall and the Town of Wake Forest Police Department to a major road, Wait Avenue. The roadway extension will relieve some of the traffic accessing the Town Hall site from the adjacent Town streets and provide a safer environment for the downtown street network and development. Construction of the roadway will require a single crossing of Spring Branch, and result in permanent impacts to 145 linear feet of stream channel and 13,272 square feet of Neuse River Riparian Buffer. No mitigation is proposed due to the fact that impacts associated with the project are below mitigation thresholds. The following information is included with this submittal: • Agent Authorization Form • Preconstruction Notification Form • Permit Maps and Figures • Check for $240.001 !1s rd} vvR.i:.z:. uuAOIN ¦ Vsc LANDS A14D SrOrxWllNOER BRANC" TEL 919 677 2000 FAX 919 677 2050 ? ? ?

Impact Justification and Mitigation 1. Avoidance and Minimization 1 a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. Precast concrete box culvert (to be buried 1') is proposed in order to minimize work and fill directly in the stream. The vertical alignment (elevation of the proposed road) was lowered to the extent feasible to maintain a safe design for motorist while minimizing impacts to the site. 1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. Temporary stream diversion, silt fence installation, and dewatering will be used during construction to minimize impacts to the stream channel. A precast culvert will be installed to minimize construction time in stream. During culvert construction, a temporary pipe will be used to divert the stream around work area which will minimize buffer impacts. Also, 1,438 SF of the impacted buffer area will be restored with native tree species. A permanent bypass level spreader will also be installed to diffuse proposed stormwater before it enters the buffer. Topographic constraints and the fixed points where the road will connect to existing roads have limited the ability to further reduce and avoid impacts. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State 2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State? ?

This maintenance record will be kept in a log in a known set location. Any deficient BMP elements noted in the inspection will be corrected, repaired or replaced immediately. These deficiencies can affect the integrity of structures, safety of the public, and the removal efficiency of the BMP. Important maintenance procedures: - Immediately after the filter strip is established, any newly planted vegetation will be watered twice weekly if needed until the plants become established (commonly six weeks). - Once a year, the filter strip will be reseeded to maintain a dense growth of vegetation - Stable groundcover will be maintained in the drainage area to reduce the sediment load to the vegetation - Two to three times a year, grass filter strips will be mowed and the clippings harvested to promote the growth of thick vegetation with optimum pollutant removal efficiency. Turf grass should not be cut shorter than 3 to 5 inches and may be allowed to grow as tall as 12 inches depending on aesthetic requirements (NIPC,1993). Forested filter strips do not require this type of maintenance. - Once a year, the soil will be aerated if necessary. - Once a year, soil pH will be tested and lime will be added if necessary. After the filter strip is established, it will be inspected quarterly and within 24 hours after every storm event greater than 1.0 inch (or 1.5 inches if in a Coastal County). Records of operation and maintenance will be kept in a known set location and will be available upon request. Inspection activities shall be performed as follows. Any problems that are found shall be repaired immediately. BMP element: Potential problem: How I will remediate the problem: The entire filter strip Trash/debris is present.
