Regarding: Diamond Falls Estates - DWQ Project # 08-1734
Anderson Creek RD, Franklin, Macon County, North Carolina
Dear Ms. Karoly,
Marshwater Company has completed the DWQ's request for more information
regarding the Diamond Falls Estates project Located in Macon County, NC.
Upon further review the permit has been changed from a NWP 27 to a NWP 29.
This change has been recognized by the USACE. The changes desired by the
developer are to reduce the number of ponds from two to one. Pond # 1 from the
previous PCN has been deleted from the original proposal. The pond previously
referred to as pond #2 will be noted as pond #1 from here on out. The changes
are reflected in a revised PCN which Marshwater Company has been included in
this package. There are no expected impacts to streams due to fill slopes or bank
stabilization within the Diamond Falls Estates. Additionally, individual septic
drain fields will be designed for each lot as they are sold. No impacts to streams
or wetlands are expected during septic installation. Also, the name of the permit
applicant has changed from Carolyn Love to Glen Goodwin.
Marshwater Company is pleased to be a part of this delicate issue. Regulatory
permitting is necessary for environmental stability of the future. Marshwater
Company will work diligently to ensure a viable resolution. Please call with any
questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
Ronnie Dilbeck`
Marshwater Company

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with ls"A LiCA.C ?H .0500. mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Qualit)T for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
fresh%vater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
Page 9 of 12
USACE - In accordance with. the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, 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 fiurction 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 wvedand
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 roust be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP 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 't'echnical. Guide for 'stream Work in North Carolina, available at
htta:/ h.lo.enr.state.nc.ass/ncwetlands/smnn ide.httnl.
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 offsikte), affects stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan. views,
preservation mechanists (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation casement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.

2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWI P). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at
(919) 733-5208 to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a P'CN, For additional information regarding the application proc4ss for the
