ATTENTION: REGULATORY- PCN Application Submittal for Nationwide 12 and Preliminary Wetland Jurisdictional Determination for Proposed Folkstone Wells Site in Onslow County, NC Dear Mr. Bailey: The Catena Group, Inc. (TCG) has completed a wetland delineation study for a proposed Onslow Water and Sewer Authority production well site along Old Folkstone Road in Holly Ridge, Onslow County, NC. TCG, acting as permitting agent for Onslow Water and Sewer Authority (ONWASA), seeks approval from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for 0.055 acres of unavoidable impacts to waters of the U.S. under Nationwide Permit 12. The purpose of this project is to construct two new wells drawing water out of the Upper and Lower Castle Hayne aquifers for an estimated total capacity of 700 gpm in order to bring the Dixon Water Treatment Plant to full capacity and meet potable water demand. This project is helping ONWASA to meet the Central Coastal Plain Capacity Use Area requirement of reducing pumpage of the Black Creek Aquifer. In addition, this project is eligible for economic stimulus funding (ARRA) as long as all environmental permits are obtained prior to June 1, 2009. It is our understanding that the USACE has 30 days to review nationwide permit applications; however, we would be considerably appreciative if this permit application review could be expedited to meet the short deadline imposed by the federal stimulus project. Accompanying this letter is Site Plan Sheet C4 as well as the July 2008 delineation report, maps, and wetland determination data forms for all surface waters located within and adjacent to the project study area. We would like to request a preliminary JD in conjunction with the PCN submittal for all surface waters delineated within the project study area depicted in Figure 2 of the attached report. Also enclosed as attachments to the PCN form is the April 7, 2009 US FWS response letter (PCN Section F5d) and the March 27, 2009 letter sent to SHPO requesting their comments regarding historic and cultural resources (PCN Section 177b). Please note that we have not yet received a response from SHPO, yet expect a response shortly as part of the Categorical Exclusion required by NCDENR as part of the ARRA application. The SHPO letter will be forwarded to your office upon receipt. ,? ,? If you have any questions or require additional information to aid in your review of this application, please feel free to contact me at the number above or via email Ocallahan@thecatenagroup.com). Again, we appreciate any expedited review of this permit by your office in an effort to meet the ARRA deadline. Sincerely, The Catena Group, Inc.

Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. Water production wells are proposed to be installed in an upland area. The wetland on the site bisects the property and therefore cannot be avoided; however, wetland impacts were minimized by designing the driveway to cross the wetland at a perpendicular angle in a shorter/smaller section of the wetland. Overhead powerlines were also placed closer to the driveway through the wetland to further minimize impacts. 1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. The driveway will be graded to existing ground surface on both sides of the wetland. Three 12" ID HDPE or RCP culverts will be installed to allow conveyance of water to satisfy wetland hydrology. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State 2a.

Raleigh Field Office Post Office Box 33726 RR w '$ Raleigh, North Carolina 27636-3726 April 7, 2009 Public Water Supply/SRF 1634 Mail Service Center Raleigh, NC 27699-1634 This letter is to inform you that a list of all federally-protected endangered and threatened species with known occurrences in' orth Carolina is now available on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's (Service) web page at http://www.fws.gov/raleigh, Therefore, if you have projects that occur within the Raleigh Field Office's area of responsibility (see attached county list), you no longer need to contact the Raleigh Field Office for a list of federally-protected species. Our web page contains a complete and frequently updated list of all endangered and threatened species protected by the provisions of the Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.)(Act), and a list of federal species of concern' that are known to occur in each county in North. Carolina. Section 7 of the Act requires that all federal agencies (or their designated non-federal representative), in consultation with the Service, insure that any action federally authorized, funded, or carried out by such agencies is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any federally-listed endangered or threatened species. A biological assessment or evaluation may be prepared to fulfill that requirement and in determining whether additional consultation with the Service is necessary. In addition to the federally-protected species list, information on the species' life histories and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or evaluation and can be found on our web page at http://www.fws.gov/raleigh. Please check. the web site often. for updated information or changes. If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally-listed species known to be present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to adversely affect those species. As such, we recommend that surveys be conducted to determine t 't'he term "federal species of concern" refers to those species which the Service believes might be in need of concentrated conservation actions. Federal species of concern receive no legal protection and their designation does not necessarily imply that the species will eventually be proposed for listing as a federally endangered or threatened species. However. we recommend that all practicable measures be taken to avoid or minimize adverse impacts to federal species of concern.. the species" presence or absence within the project area. The use of North Carolina Natural Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual. field. surveys. If you determine that the proposed action. may affect (i.e., likely to adversely affect or not likely to adversely affect) a federally-protected species, you should notify this office with your determination, the results of your surveys, survey methodologies, and an analysis of the effects of the action on listed species, including consideration of direct, indirect, and cumulative effects, before conducting any activities that might affect the species. If you determine that the proposed action will have no effect (i.e., no beneficial or adverse, direct or indirect effect) on federally listed species, then you are not required to contact our office for concurrence (unless an Environmental Impact Statement is prepared). However, you should maintain a complete record of the assessment, including steps leading to your determination of effect, the qualified personnel conducting the assessment, habitat conditions, site photographs, and any other related articles. With regard to the above-referenced projects, we offer the following remarks. Our comments are submitted pursuant to, and in accordance with, provisions of the Endangered Species Act. Based on the information provided and other information available, it appears that the proposed actions are not likely to adversely affect any federally-Iisted endangered or threatened species, their formally designated critical habitat, or species currently proposed for listing under the Act at these sites. We believe that the requirements of section 7(a)(2) of 'the Act have been satisfied for these projects. Please remember that obligations under section 7 consultation must be reconsidered if: (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered, (2) these actions are subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review, or, (3) a new species is listed or critical habitat determined that may be affected by the identified action. We hope you find our web page useful and informative and that following the process described above will reduce the time required, and eliminate the need, for general correspondence for species' lists. If you have any questions or comments, please contact this office at (919) 856- 4520. Pete 1.

The Catena Group (TCG) was contracted by Groundwater Management Associates, Inc. to conduct stream and wetland (surface waters) delineations within the project study area. The objective of this report is to determine the locations and extent of surface waters subject to protection under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. 2.0 Project Description The project study area, a 300 ft X 300 ft (2.07 acres) surveyed parcel, is located on Folkstone Road (SR 1518) approximately 300 feet east of the intersection of Highway 17 (34°31'23" N, 77a 30'31" W) (Figure 1, Appendix I). 3.0 Methodologies TCG was provided maps depicting the project study area. Additional mapping resources used in this investigation include the most recent United States Geologic Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute topographic quadrangle map, and the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Web Soil Survey. TCG conducted the field investigations on July 23 under partly cloudy weather conditions. All drainage features and potential wetland areas were evaluated to determine if they met the criteria for jurisdictional status. Jurisdictional delineations were performed using the three-parameter approach as prescribed in the 1987 US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetlands Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory 1987). Supplemental technical literature describing the parameters of hydrophytic vegetation, hydric soils, and hydrological indicators were also utilized. USACE wetland routine determination forms were completed for each wetland system (Appendix II). Wetland boundaries were marked with pink and black striped flagging. All flags were surveyed using a hand-held GPS unit with sub-meter accuracy. 4.0 Qualification of Investigators The representative of TCG conducting this investigation was Chris Sheats. Mr. Sheats is a project manager for TCG with five years of experience conducting natural resource investigations. His experience includes wetland and stream mitigation, jurisdictional Folkstone Wells July 2008 TCG Job #2131 The Caleno wetland and stream delineations, environmental permitting, threatened and endangered species surveys, natural systems assessments, stream classifications, and graphics mapping. 5.0 Results 5.1 Jurisdictional Streams No jurisdictional streams were observed within the project study area. 5.2 Jurisdictional Wetlands One jurisdictional wetland was observed within the project study area (Appendix II). Wetland I (W 1) is a headwater wetland approximately 0.3 acre. The wetland continues off the property to the southeast (Figure 2). The soil in Wetland 1 meets field indicator F3 as noted in the Field Indicators of Hydric Soils in the United States (USDA, NRCS 2003), which states: F3. Depleted Matrix. A layer that has a depleted matrix with 60 percent or more chroma of 2 or less and has a minimum thickness of either: a.) 2 inches entirely within the uppers 6 inches of the soil surface OR b.) 6 inches starting with 10 inches of the soil surface 6.0. Summary No jurisdictional streams were observed within the project study area. One wetland, approximately 0.3 acre, was observed and delineated. It is the opinion of TCG that this feature is regulated by the USACE under Sections-404 of the Clean Water Act. This report is provided for preliminary planning purposes only. It is recommended that if this wetland is impacted through site development, then Onslow County request a jurisdictional feature verification from the regulatory agencies prior to, or in conjunction with, requesting federal and state permits. Any concurrence with the results of this investigation will be made at that time. Folkstone Wells July 2008 TCG Job #2131 The Coteno REFERENCES Environmental Laboratory. 1987.
