Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application: The majority of the site is a mixed hardwood forest The Page 2 of 9 It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts, permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate. Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet. 1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: Previously approved impacts include 0.125 acres of wetlands, 263 linear feet of perennial stream channel, and 668 linear feet of intermittent stream channel. Proposed temporary impacts include 353 linear feet of perennial stream channel and 319 linear feet of intermittent stream channel. This modification requests an additional 63 linear feet of permanent intermittent stream impact and 50 square feet (0.001 ac) of permanent wetland impact at Impact Location #4 for the purposes of providing a better road alignment for the stream crossing as well as providing Prowess Energy with a safer and more reasonable access to their electric utility line easement. 2. Individually list wetland impacts. Types of impacts include, but are not limited to mechanized clearing, grading, fill, excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams, separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding.

Stream impacts include, but are not limited to placement of fill or culverts, dam construction, flooding, relocation, stabilization activities (e.g., cement walls, rip-rap, crib walls, gabions, etc.), excavation, ditching/straightening, etc. If stream relocation is proposed, plans and profiles showing the linear footprint for both the original and relocated streams must be included. To calculate acreage, multiply length X width, then divide by 43,560. Page 4 of 9 golf course is currently under construction as per the 404!401 permits previously issued. Portions of the infrastructure are also under construction. 10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The previousl~pproved project is a residential subdivision and golf course with permanent and temporary impacts resulting from the installation of roads, driveways, fairway fill, and sewer lines that are recJuired for such a project. The purpose of the modified stream crossing is to allow ProQxess Energy Carolinas, Inc. (PEC) a safer and more reasonable access to the utility line maintenance corridor per the PEC Transmission Line Ri t-of--Way Use Guidelines (see attached documentation from PEC, . Heavesequipment typically used for earth work and construction will be employed for this project. 11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The modified stream crossing is for the road access to the subdivision as well as utility easement access for Progress Energy Carolinas, IV. Prior Project History If jurisdictional determinations and/or permits have been requested and/or obtained for this project (including all prior phases of the same subdivision) in the past, please explain. Include the USACE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits, certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project, list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.I.P. project, along with construction schedules. In December 1999 and January 2000, S&EC conducted a detailed wetland delineation on the ~ 687 acre site. On June 14, 2005, Ms. Andrea Wade of the USACE conducted a site visit to determine stream "importance" calls and to "spot check" the earlier delineation. On September 13, 2005, Mr. Monte Mathews of the USACE signed the jurisdictional determination (Action ID 200520827). On June 29, 2006 the NCDWO issued their approval for the on ig nal proposed impacts (see attached Approval, DWQ Project No. 06-0352). On July 13, 2006, the USACE issued their approval for the original proposed impacts see attached Approval, AID SAW 200633159, 200520827, 200620668). The approved impacts were: 0.123 acre of wetland, 263 linear feet of streams (requiring miti ag tion), 668 linear feet of streams (not requiring miti ag tion), 353 linear feet of temporary impact to perennial streams and 319 linear feet of temporary impact to intermittent streams. V. Future Project Plans Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work, and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application. No additional permits are anticipated at this time. VI.

Please note that this section only applies to waters that have specifically been determined to be isolated by the USACE. There are no isolated wetland or stream impacts on this property. 8. Pond Creation Page 5 of 9 If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application. Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ^ uplands ^ stream ^ wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): N/A Current land use in the vicinity of the pond: N/A Size of watershed draining to pond: N/A Expected pond surface area: N/A VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. _ This previously approved subdivision and golf course has been designed and re-designed several times to avoid and minimize stream and wetland impacts resulting from lot fill or unnecessary road ali~mnents. Out of the +/- 687 acres there are only 3 perennial stream crossings proposed that result in permanent im~acts• all others are intermittent streams at near perpendicular angles. Progress Energy Carolinas Inc (PECI has supplied the applicant with a copy of the PEC Transmission Line right-of-Wav Use Guidelines (see attached memo) since the approvals for this project have been issued The previously approved road crossing at Impact #4 is within the PEC Ri t-of--Wav Easement corridor These guidelines which require a 4.1 side slope as well as limiting the proximity of the roadway to any PEC structures have necessitated the redesign of the stream crossing at this location. This has increased the permanent impact to the intermittent stream channel by 63 linear feet and added 50 square feet of unavoidable permanent wetland impact (0 001 ac) (please see attached impact map) VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, 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 function 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 wetland Page 6 of 9 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 must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP 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 Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at http: //h2o. enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html. 1. 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 offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. The applicant previously utilized the Ecosystem Enhancement Program for all reauired miti atg~ ion (see attached receipt from EEP) The new additional impacts are to an intermittent stream channel and as the on 'ngi al impacts to this area did not require mitigation, we do not propose an~mit_igation at this location. It should be noted that this modification to the stream crossing is outside of any_previously a ergs upon conservation easements for the 12 Oaks development 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating that they are will to accept payment for the mitigation must be attached to this form. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCEEP, check the NCEEP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCEEP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page five and provide the following information: Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 0 Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): 0 Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0 Amount ofNon-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0 Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0 IX.
