Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application: The main project corridor is generally located along Hawthorne Lane and consists of several land uses. The current land use for the northern half of the project area is mostly residential with maintained lawns and small adjacent wooded areas. There is also a school with surrounding ball fields. The southern half of the project area consists of industrial and commercial land uses and includes a rail line. According to the NRCS Soil Survey of Mecklenburg County (2002), on-site soils are dominated by Mecklenburg -Urban land complex (MkB) for the northern half of the project area and Urban land (Ur) for the southern half of the project area. There are also small inclusions of Monacan soils and Arents (MS), Helena sandy loam (HeB), and Cecil -Urban land complex (CuB) (NRCS Soil Survey Map, enclosed). 3b. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property: 0 acres 3c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property: 1,731 linear feet 3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project: The purpose of this project is to alleviate flooding and enhance degraded stream segments within the project area. The existing storm drainage infrastructure is aging and in disrepair and consequently is insufficient for conveying design storm flows. As a result, structure and road flooding are frequent occurrences. Furthermore, as documented in a detailed stability and geomorphic analysis (available upon request), and as agreed upon by the USACE and NCDWQ during field reviews on October 31, 2008 and June 15, 2010 (Minutes enclosed), the downstream reach of the project area is degraded and in need of enhancement. In general, indicators of stream impairment consist of vertical and moderately eroding banks, over -widened channel dimensions, lack of floodplain access, and prevalence of invasive species (mostly kudzu) along the channel. Representative photographs of the degraded stream reaches are enclosed. 3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: This project proposes to improve the storm drainage infrastructure (i.e., pipe systems and culverts) and to enhance degraded stream reaches. Infrastructure upgrades consist of replacing undersized or failing pipes with larger pipes that are sufficient to convey design storm flows. Additional impacts will result from the installation of rip rap aprons and plunge pools to dissipate erosive forces exiting the newly upgraded infrastructure. Activities and associated impacts to jurisdictional waters are depicted in the enclosed Louise Avenue CIP Construction Plans. A detailed narrative describing the proposed impacts to Waters of the U.S. is provided in the attached Cover Letter. Non -jurisdictional channels will also be enhanced or stabilized to reduce erosion and downstream sedimentation.

Have jurisdictional wetland or stream determinations by the Corps or State been requested or obtained for this property / ® Yes ❑ No ❑ Unknown project (including all prior phases) in the past? 4b. If the Corps made the jurisdictional determination, what type Preliminary ®Final of determination was made? 4c. If yes, who delineated the jurisdictional areas? Agency/Consultant Company: Baker Engineering Name (if known): Chris Yow Other: 4d. If yes, list the dates of the Corps jurisdictional determinations or State determinations and attach documentation. Amanda Jones field -verified jurisdictional determination on June 15, 2010. Per the field investigation, several stream jurisdictional determinations were changed and a revised Existing Conditions/Jurisdictional Determination map was submitted to the USACE for verification on July 27, 2010. A jurisdictional determination was issued on March 2, 2011 concurrent with the issuance of project permits USACE Action ID 2011-00366. 5. Project History 5a. Have permits or certifications been requested or obtained for ® Yes ❑ No ❑ Unknown this project (including all prior phases) in the past? 5b. If yes, explain in detail according to "help file" instructions. The Louise Avenue CIP was originally permitted on March 2, 2011, USACE Action ID 2011-00366, DWQ# 11-0022. However, construction of the Louise Avenue CIP project was delayed and the project permits have since expired. Additionally, three City of Charlotte projects have been previously permitted along the same 5,000 linear -foot contiguous stream reach as the proposed Louise Avenue CIP project area (Project Area Map, enclosed), resulting in permanent loss of Waters of the U.S. These projects were: 1. Louise Avenue Culvert Replacement, USACE Action ID 2006-41402-361, DWQ notification not required 2. Solid Waste Services (SWS) — Otts Street Facility, USACE Action ID 2008-1585, DWQ notification not required 3. Seigle Avenue Culvert Replacement, USACE Action ID 2009-00680, DWQ# 09-0362 While none of these individual projects required compensatory mitigation for permanent stream impacts, it was determined during an October 31, 2008 field review with the Interagency Review Team (IRT) that, due to their proximity, the total impacts from these three projects and the proposed Louise Avenue CIP would have to be cumulatively mitigated (Minutes enclosed). A mitigation plan for the cummulative impacts was developed and permitted under USACE Action ID 2011-00366. Upon review of the project, evaluation of previously issued permits impacted, and discussion of project particulars USACE has determined that mitigation will only be required for the current USACE Action ID 2011-00366 Louise Avenue CIP project and USACE Action ID 2009-00680 Seigle Avenue Culvert Replacement projects. The Permittee Responsible Mitigation Plan section of the PCN has been revised to reflect the new mitigation requirements and a revised mitigation plan is also provided. 6. Future Project Plans 6a.

Total stream and tributary impacts 1098 Page 5 of 13 PCN Form —Version 1.0 November 2008 Version C. Proposed Impacts Inventory, continued 3h. Comments: Permanent loss impacts = 156 LF. Impact S1 - The proposed pipe extension (Plan Sheet 3) is required to meet CSX's rail line loading requirements. The proposed extension plus the plunge pool energy dissipater at the outfall will result in 105 linear feet of permanent stream impacts. Impact S2 - The step -pool sequence within Tributary 1 is necessary to provide a stable and relatively natural transition into the upgraded downstream pipe system. Temporary impacts from the proposed step -pool sequence total 56 linear feet. Impact S3 - The perennial mainstem channel segment located along Hawthorne Lane will be enhanced (Plan Sheet 6 & 7) to remove blockages, eliminate erosion, provide a heterogeneous channel bottom, and alleviate flooding. In order to provide a stable left bank slope and avoid conflicts with Hawthorne Lane, the enhanced channel will be shifted slightly to the west. Impacts from stream enhancement activities along this reach will total 177 linear feet. Impacts S4 & S5 - This perennial mainstem channel will be permanently impacted by the installation of the proposed rip rap apron (12 linear feet) and plunge pool (39 linear feet), both of which are associated with storm drain infrastructure maintenance along this same channel reach. Impact S6 - The 709 linear feet of impacts, as illustrated on Sheets P1 (298 linear feet) and P2 (411 linear feet), will result from the enhancement of degraded reaches of the mainstem channel located downstream of the CSX railroad crossing. All enhanced stream segments will be stabilized with biodegradable coir matting and bioengineering measures. Due to the enhancement activities proposed these 709 linear feet of impacts are not considered a loss of Waters of the United States. 4.

Avoidance and Minimization 1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. After multiple plan revisions, impacts to on-site jurisdictional waters of the U.S. have been reduced to the maximum extent practicable. The plunge pool at the outlet of the extended pipe (Sheet 3) is necessary to dissipate energy from flows exiting the pipe and to protect the proposed downstream enhancement reaches. This plunge pool and the one at the pipe outlet on Sheet 7 are proposed in lieu of rip rap aprons to minimize the linear feet of permanent stream impacts at these locations. In addition, natural channel design principles are incorporated into the proposed enhancement activities on Sheets 6, 7, P1, and P2. This should result in the functional lift of these currently degraded channel segments. In response to comments from the June 15, 2010 field meeting (Minutes enclosed), the step-pool sequence within Tributary 1 on Sheet 6 (detail on Sheet 2R) has been modified from previous plan submittals to eliminate rip rap from between each cross-vane and to decrease the dimensions of each vane to maintain the approximate 4-foot channel cross-section. Additional design revisions from the previous plan submittal are proposed for the Mainstem Stream located along Hawthorne Lane on Sheets 6 and 7. Changes include removal of rock toe protection along the entire reach and the incorporation of in-stream structures to enhance stability and in-stream habitat. 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. To prevent sedimentation of downstream waters, construction will be conducted in the dry. Proper sediment and erosion control measures will be implemented as outlined in Sheets EC1-EC9 (Construction Plans enclosed). Best Management Practices employed for this project will be in compliance with the most recent version of the "North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual" and the local governing authority. Sediment and erosion control measures placed in waters will be removed and the original grade restored within two months after the Division of Land Resources has released the project. After construction, disturbed areas will be restored and stabilized as early as possible. 2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State 2a.

Have you checked with the USFWS concerning Endangered Species Act ❑ Yes ® No impacts? ❑ Raleigh 5c. If yes, indicate the USFWS Field Office you have contacted. ❑ Asheville 5d. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat? NC Division of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ) Natural Heritage Program A letter was forwarded to the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) on November 19, 2010 to determine the presence of any federally -listed, candidate endangered, threatened species or critical habitat within the project area. In a reply letter dated December 3, 2010 (enclosed), NCNHP indicated that it has no record of rare species, significant natural communities, significant natural heritage areas, or conservation/managed areas at the site nor within 0.2 mile of the project area. NCNHP's records show a colonial wading bird colony (heronry) located about 0.2 mile to the east of the eastern end of the project, but it would not be impacted by the project. The project area is comprised of residential, institutional, and industrial development with small forested areas. Undeveloped wooded areas and stream -side zones are dominated by invasive plant species, so the occurrence of any federally -listed, candidate endangered, threatened species of critical habitat is unlikely. 6. Essential Fish Habitat (Corps Requirement) 6a. Will this project occur in or near an area designated as essential fish habitat? ❑ Yes ® No 6b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Essential Fish Habitat? National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) website 7.

Will this project occur in or near an area that the state, federal or tribal governments have designated as having historic or cultural preservation ❑ Yes ® No status (e.g., National Historic Trust designation or properties significant in North Carolina history and archaeology)? 7b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact historic or archeological resources? NC Department of Cultural Resources (NCDCR) State Historic Preservation Office A letter was forwarded to the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) on November 19, 2010 to determine the presence of any areas of architectural, historic, or archaeological significance that would be affected by the project. In a reply letter dated January 21, 2011 (enclosed), the SHPO indicates the project will not adversely affect any historic resources. A search of the Charlotte -Mecklenburg Historic Landmarks Commission list of designated historic landmarks revealed no historic properties that would be affected by the project. Due to the nature of the project, land - disturbing activities will predominantly occur within railroad and road right-of-ways and within existing drainage features. As such, potential impacts to any areas of architectural, historic, or archaeological significance are unlikely. Page 12 of 13 PCN Form — November 2008 Version F.
