Sincerely, nnifer Rosenfeld Executive Administrative Assistant DIAMONDBACK INVESTMENT GROUP, LLC * 3907 NORTH ELM STREET, GREENSBORO, NC 27455 WETLANDS WATERS Mr. David Bailey US Army Corps of Engineers Raleigh Regulatory Field Office 69 Darlington Avenue Wilmington, NC 28403 RE: Huffman Point — NWP 14 Verification 3040 B Longpine Road Burlington, North Carolina, 27215 Mr. Bailey and Ms. Higgins, R, [2@R0W19D \0IJ082017, Ms. Karen Higgins NC -Division of Water Resources 401 & Buffer Permitting Unit 1617 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699 November 2, 2017 Attached please find a Pre -Construction Notification for a Nationwide Permit 14 verification requesting authorization to construct two road crossings, each separately totaling less than 150 linear feet of impacts, in order to establish connections to existing public right-of-way. Impacts of 83 linear feet are requested for the eastern road crossing, and 145 linear feet for the southern road crossing, both of which are depicted on the enclosed overall grading plan. The road crossings will provide required ingress and egress to a planned residential subdivision referred to as Huffman Point, and provide internal circulation necessary for the planned residential subdivision onsite. All roads were designed to support the Alamance County thoroughfare plan and provide continuity with pre-existing infrastructure on neighboring property. We are also requesting a 401 WQC from NC DWR for the above referenced impacts. The project is located 3040 B Longpine Road, Burlington, NC and consists of approximately 49.25 total acres, 3,300 linear feet of jurisdictional intermittent and perennial surface waters and 0.84 acres of jurisdictional spring/seep wetlands present onsite. The project is located in the Cape Fear River basin and drains to Gum Creek. Project Purpose The purpose of the proposed project is to construct two road crossings to establish connections to existing infrastructure and public right-of-way. The road crossings will provide continuity with the Alamance county thoroughfare plan, and internal circulation and ingress/egress to a planned residential subdivision on the project site. Proiect Need 145 Linear feet of impacts to an unnamed, perennial tributary are requested at the southern boundary of the project site to provide for the primary ingress/egress route to the site from Grand Oaks Boulevard, and to provide continuity to the pre-existing portion of Longpine Road to connect to Grand Oaks Boulevard. 83 linear feet of impacts to an unnamed, intermittent tributary are requested at the eastern boundary of the project site to provide an extension of Cambridge Road into the property, and to provide another point of ingress/egress for the planned subdivision. All road connections were designed in consideration of the Alamance County thoroughfare plan, and located to connect to pre- existing infrastructure in order to maintain continuity and minimize impacts from construction. CHRISTOPHER HUYSMAN 1 70 DEW DROP ROAD SPARTA, NC 28675 336.406.0906 CHRIS.HUYSMAN@GMAIL.COM WETLANDS & WATERS, INC. TAMP BANDY 41 OB LB PROPST DRIVE CONOVER, NC 2B61 3 B2B.302.3437 JTAMPBANDY@GMAIL.COM Additionally, the proposed roads and associated road crossings were designed to ease access for emergency vehicles, and to provide alternative routes for commuters to ease traffic loading along the major thoroughfare Grand Oaks Boulevard. Avoidance and Minimization The project site was designed to avoid and minimize impacts to jurisdictional features wherever possible. The placement of infrastructure serving the planned community was specifically chosen to connect to existing infrastructure, and to limit impacts to the two tributaries for the purposes of constructing the proposed road crossings. The overall site plan for the planned community was designed to avoid impacts to all wetlands and marginal areas, as well as Gum Creek, which runs along the western and southern portion of the property boundary. All temporary fills associated with each road crossing will be removed, and elevations restored to pre - construction elevations. Mitigation As there is no clear mandate for compensatory mitigation below threshold amounts, the applicant is not proposing additional mitigation beyond the onsite avoidance and minimization methods. Please do not hesitate to call if you have any questions or require further information to process this request.

Pleasant Garden, NC 27313 RE: Grand Oaks Dear Perry Isner: Secretary Susi H. Hamilton NCNHDE-4371 The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above. A query of the NCNHP database, based on the project area mapped with your request, indicates that there are no records for rare species, important natural communities, natural areas, or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project boundary. Please note that although there may be no documentation of natural heritage elements within the project boundary, it does not imply or confirm their absence; the area may not have been surveyed. The results of this query should not be substituted for field surveys where suitable habitat exists. In the event that rare species are found within the project area, please contact the NCNHP so that we may update our records. The attached `Potential Occurrences' table summarizes rare species and natural communities that have been documented within a one -mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area if suitable habitat exists and is included for reference. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed area within a one -mile radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report. Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission. The NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve (DNP), Registered Heritage Area (RHA), Clean Water Management Trust Fund (CWMTF) easement, or Federally -listed species are documented near the project area. If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance, please contact Rodney A. Butler at rodney.butler(a)ncdcr.gov or 919.707.8603.
