Innes Street Market/ DWQ#960634
Rowan County
Dear Mr. Vermillion:
On August 26, 1996 you were issued General Water Quality Certification Number 2671,
authorizing you to place fill material in 2.036 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of constructing
the aforementioned shopping center.
On February 24, 1998 Mr. John Dorney and Mr. Pete Colwell from the North Carolina Division of
Water Quality (NCDWQ) conducted a site visit. As a result of this visit, many deficiencies with your site
were noted. Specifically, 1) The lower most pond's outlet box was blown out, 2) These were excessive
quantities of sediment observed in the stream-likely in violation (as per 15 A NCAC 213 .0200) of the 50
NTU (Nephronic Turbidity Units) State Water Quality Standard, 3) The stream was directly against the
retaining wall-which will eventually undercut the wall and likely cause its failure, 4) There was no soil
stabilization evident, 5) The dams on the ponds were eroded, and 6) On the upper ponds, there were no
plantings evident and no sediment and erosion control measures in place.
As a result of these deficiencies, NCDWQ will move to revoke your 401 Water Quality
Certification unless these items are rectified within 14 days upon your receipt of this letter. If you should
have any questions regarding this matter please feel free to call Mr. Pete Colwell or myself at (919) 733-
1786.

Re: Compensatory Wetland Mitigation/Nationwide Permit #26 Application for
Innes Street Market - Proposed 64 Acres, Salisbury, Rowan County.
Dear Sirs:
Crosland Retail would like to restate our sincere commitment to provide the minimization
measures and compensatory mitigation for impacts to wetlands in order to develop the
Innes Street Market as provided in our application. Since the inception of our work on
this important project we have diligently pursued and utilized extensive professional
planning input from the US Army Corps of Engineers, the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management, as well as from our engineering, architectural, marketing,
and environmental consultants to develop this project. Preliminary planning
consideration of environmental and regulatory issues. Due to the economic, engineering,
and spatial requirements of a commercial development of this magnitude and after a
thorough alternative analysis, filling of large areas of wetlands on this tract were proven
to be unavoidable. Please note that besides providing compensatory mitigation and
minimization measures we have reduced scone to the extent possible to balance the site's
economic viability with its environmental value. Several pre-application meetings and
reviews were held with the Corps and NCDEM and we obtain preliminary indications
of approval of the plan to submitting the application. We believe that the plan and
commitments made in our application reflect a positive and cooperative response to the
preliminary negotiations, determinations, and concerns of the US Army Corps of
Engineers and the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management.
We are requesting your approval of our application with the conceptual mitigation plan
in our submittal to help meet our contractual commitment to Lowe's. Since the
engineering, architectural, sedimentation and erosion control, stormwater treatment and

wetland mitigation, on this complex project need to be designed together the plans will
be developed concurrently with the Construction Documents to make sure they are
effectively coordinated. Preliminary plans are already in progress. Both the USACE and
the NCDEM have expressed a desire to be involved in the design process and review of
the mitigation plans and we welcome this. As stated in our application final mitigation
plans will be submitted for approval to the NCDEM and the USAGE. Construction of
the mitigation sites will occur concurrently with other aspects of the project.
Thank you for your assistance and cooperation during pre-application process and your
consideration of our request. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact

The proposed Inneo Street Market Project is located on
approximately 64 acres in south Salisbury in Rowan County. The
site includes 47 acres of woodland and 17 acres of previously
developed land. The developer is seeking approval to fill 1.853
acres of wetlands and 0.183 acres of intermittent/perennial
tributaries on the project aite, An estimated total of 2.551
acres of wetlands are located on the site. Aquatic systems in

wetlands and intermittent tributaries of Town Creek. Town Creek
is a small tributary to High Rock Lake which provides an
excellent fishery for largemouth bass, crappie, sunfish, catfish,
and other species.
We appreciate the effort made to avoid and minimize wetland
impacts. The document states that a total of 0.515 acres of high
quality headwater forest wetlands will be preserved. The
