Amanda,
Attatched is the Revised Pre -Construction notification with just one update. We are changing the removal of 71 feet of
culvert to 170 feet of culvert to align with the design of plans from Michael Alberto, PE dated July 25, 2018. This is
noted on page 5 section 4G under Heading "Crossing Two". After talking with Sue Homewood, she indicated that would
be acceptable for the Department of Environment and Natural Resources.
We will continue with the restoration as discussed. Also if you need anything further to expedite the permit please
contact me at 828 964-0968 or Email to RogersMechanical.Justin@gmail.com.
Thanks again for your and Sue's help in this matter.

4f. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
There are two purposes of the project. The first is to prepare the site for future commercial development. The
applicant is in the process of working on an approved site plan. The second purpose of the project is to restore
wetlands previously impacted by earlier site development activities, as well as, remove previously placed culverts
in waters of the U.S. The goal is to bring the project into compliance with rules under the Clean Water Act of 1972.
49. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect imapacts and the type of equipment to be used:
The project proposes direct impacts to jurisdictional waters of the U.S. under %tionwde Permit (NWP) No. 39.
Previous site development activities resulted in non -authorized temporary and permanent impacts to waters of the
U.S. The applicant is not aware of any Section 404/401 permits for project related activities. Therefore, this permit
application Will cover After -the -Fact impacts to waters of the US. One previously installed HDPE culvert will result
in permanent stream impacts for site access and development. Other stream and Wetland impacts from site
development are temporary and Wilt he mitigated by permittee responsible restoration outlined in the attached
Corrective Action Plan (CAP).
Crossing One
Stream Impact S1 - Stream A, Brown Branch
An existing 20 -toot 36 -inch high density polyethylene (HDPE) culvert is temporarily placed within Brow Branch.
The culvert was used by heavy equipment to cross Brown Branch during site clearing. The culvert Will be reproved
and the daylighted channel will be restored as outlined In the CAP. Additional temporary stream impacts will occur
during the pipe removal and stream restoration activity resulting in 6 -linear feet of temporary BII (St) for the pump
around operation, so that work can be completed in the dry. Equipment operation for the culvert removal will be
completed from the stream banks. Following culvert removal, stream bank restoration will include reshaping the
banks to original contour and slope, matching upstream and downstream patterns. Stream banks Will be matted
and seeded.
Crossing Two
Stream Impacts S2 and S3 - Stream B, UT -Brown Branch
An existing 220 -foot 18 -inch HDPE culvert Will be utilized for a permanent road crossing and site development
during grading for a new construction pad. To avoid mitigation, the applicant. as outlined in the CAP, will remove
/?,.linear feet of existing pipe (temporary fill) and restore the daylighted stream reach (S2). Culvert removal will
occur outside of the trout moratorium. Additional temporary stream impacts cull occur during the pipe removal and
stream restoration activity resulting In 6 -linear feet of temporary fill (S2) for the pump around operation, so that
work can be compfere—TInthe dry. tquipnfem operation for theculv8ffremoval WlMd compfefed"6amlh,--magnv—"
banks. Following culvert removal, stream bank restoration will include reshaping the banks to original contour and
slope, matching upstream and downstream patterns. Stream banks will be matted and seeded.
By completing the proposed culvert removal and stream restoration, the remaining culvert Well result in 149 -linear
feet of permanent fill in Ur -Brown Branch (S3). The wasting HPE culvert Is currently countersunk at least 3.6.
inches belowstream channel bed meeting the 20% embedded requirement. New stacked rock headWells WAI be
constructed on the inlet/outlet ends of the culvert to control grade from surrounding fill. No riprap outfall protection
Is proposed due to the very lowgradlenl of the stream system and presence of grade control in the stream
channel. The culvert matches the stream channel width and therefore will maintain a hydrologic connection
between upstream and downstream waters during low flow events,
Trout Buffer Clearing
Broom Branch
Approximately 200 -linear feet of trout buffers were cleared during previous site development activities. The CAP
Proposes to install live stakes directly in the banks of Brown Branch In addition to installing bare root trees and
shrubs within the adjoining portions of Wetlands AA and BB (restoration activities for wetland Impacts W1 -W5),
Live stakes Will be spaced at 4 -feet on center; bare root shrubs and trees w}II be spaced at 10 -feet on center.
Approximately 100 live stake plants well be installed within cleared stream banks; approametely 250 bare root trees
and shrubs will be installed in the cleared portion of the trout buffer. Bare root and live stake installations will occur
within the 2018 seasonal dormant period. Permanent riparian/wetland seed nixes well be broadcast within cleared
buffer and wetland areas. These buffer and wetland restoration activities Wit ensure that the vegetated community
is re-established and the trout buffer clearing activity is appropriately mitigated.
Wetland Clearing
Wetland Impacts Wt – W5, Wetlands AA and BB
The removal of forested vegetation and disturbance of herbaceous vegetation occurred within the boundaries of
Wetlands AA and BB by the project owners as part of site development during the winter of 2017-2018. These
actions temporarily impacted 0.78 -acre of jurisdictional wellands (Impacts W1 -W5). Welland Impacts Wt -W4
represent clearing/grubbing impacts to forested and herbaceous Wetland areas, whereas wetland impact W5
represents both forested clearing impacts in addition to filling (0.03 -ac rill). An approximate 0.78 -acre area within
Wetlands AA and BB, disturbed by previous land development activities, was composed of a 0.62 -acre forested
wetland area and a 0.16 -acre herbaceous Welland area.
The CAP proposes to install bare root trees and shrubs within previously disturbed forested areas matching
surrounding Wetland vegetation communities used for reference species and spacing considerations.
Wetland/riparian seed mixes will be applied to disturbed forested and herbaceous areas according to designer
approved techniques. Approximately 250 bare root plants will be installed. Bare root installations will occur within
the 2018 seasonal dormant period.
Welland Filling
Wetland Impact W5, Wetland BB
The property owners began preparation of the project site by adding fill material for increasing site grade and to
establish a construction pad for future commercial development. This work was performed prior to having a
wetland delineation completed. CWS completed a stream and wetland delineation on March 5. 2016 that included
flagging wetland boundaries. Approximately 0.03 acre of fill material is estimated to have been placed within the
Wedand BB boundary, within a previous forested wetland community (intact W5). Remedial actions will include
removing fill material, re-establishing pre-existing wetland contour, and replanting the forested wetland. Fill Well be
mechanically removed and matched to surrounding wetland ground elevations in unfilled areas. Wetland flagging
will guide the operator to the extent of fill needing to be removed. Depth of fill removal will be gauged by color
changes of soils. The natural wetland soils are very dark In contrast to the fill material which can be discerned by
its bright red to yellowish color. Following fill removal, adjoining upland areas Will be graded to a stable gradient
outside of the wetland boundary. Long-term site development will Include use of a retaining wall to maintain site
grade In areas adjoining the restored Wetland boundary. Wetland areas Where fill material has been removed will
be replanted and seeded according to actions described in the Welland clearing restoration for Impacts W1 W5.

Two culverts have been installed on the project site during previous site development activities. One culvert will be
completely removed and the stream channel within its footprint will be restored according to the attached CAP.
The second culvert will be shortened and a portion of the culvert will be left in place to accommodate future
development. Stream channel will be restored within portions of the removed culvert sections according to the
CAP
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed Impacts in designing the project:"
The applicant will follow actions presented in the attached CAP to bring previous site development activities into
compliance with rules under the Clean Water Act. An existing culvert proposed to be left on the project site is
currently countersunk 20% of the pipe diameter below stream bed elevation, thus supporting aquatic life
movement. The same proposed remaining culvert already matches the stream channel wdth; therefore the culvert
will maintain low flows and a hydrological connection to downstream waters during low flowing time periods.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed Impacts through construction techniques:*
Previous site development activities that resulted in temporary wetland and stream Impacts will be mitigated by
owner responsible restoration activities per the attached CAP. Site stabilization of upland areas will be completed
according to the CAP that will prevent potential water quality violations. Proper sediment and erosion control
measures will be used to minimize disturbances to downstream waters. Construction activities and impacts to
waters of the U.S. will comply with all conditions of Nationwide Permit No. 39 and Water Quality Certification No.
