Box 1890 Wilmington, NC 28402 Dear Colonel Woodbury: In keeping with your request, this office has circulated to interested state review agencies U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Public Notice .... 0085 dated December 24, 1987, which describes a project carried out by Pronto_ Development Services,, Inc., of Raleigh. The project, involving the placement of fill in wetlands to cover a utility line, is `located '''adjacent` to Poplar. Creek near Knightdale in Wake County. The cooperating review group was less vocal than expected on this particular case. However, by copy of the February 15 letter to your office from the Division of Environmental Management, the writer has learned of a violation of a DEM permit. DEM, as you know, has recommended that an after-the-fact permit not be issued. This viewpoint position supports the DEM position and, likewise, recommends permit denial. Should you require additional input from the state on this matter, do not hesitate to contact this office or the Division of Environmental Management. Very sincerely, Joh R. Parker, Jr. v Inland '404 Coordinator JRP:jr/aw - cc: Division of Environmental Management ?? P.O.

We have completed our public interest review of your application, and we have determined that to authorize the work would be contrary to the interests of the general public.". By letter of February 8, 1988, we informed you that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, objecting to the loss of forested wetlands, recommended that your application be denied and the area be restored to pre-work conditions. By letter of February 4, 1988 (copy enclosed), Wake County informed us that your unauthorized fill has disrupted and degraded area drainage and commented that "positive drainage must be restored." By letter of February 15, 1988 (copy enclosed), the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management informed us that the installation of your sewer line contradicted their authorization. Therefore, your application for after-the-fact Department of the Army authorization is denied. You are hereby requested to provide your plan to restore preconstruction elevation contours and reestablish previously exisiting surface drainage not less than 20 days from your receipt of this letter. This plan must be submitted to Mr. Ken Jolly, Regulatory Branch, telephone (919) 846-1217. BY AUTHORITY OF THE SECRETARY OF THE ARMY: Paul W.

Box 1890 Wilmington, NC 28402-1890 Subject: Dear Mr. Hollis: Pronto Development Services Ashley Hills Subdivision Wake. County This letter is in response to your request of January 4, 1988 that 401 Water Quality Certification be processed for an after-the-fact COE permit for a utility line through a wetland area adjacent to Poplar Creek. Since the fill has already been placed and the permitting is being considered on an after-the-fact basis, there is no Section 401 Water Quality Certification required prior to Corps issuance of the permit. However, it should be noted that the manner of construction of this sewer line was in contradiction with the permit issued by this Division for sewer lines on this project. The permit required that sewer line in this specific area (between manholes #7'and #10) be constructed on pillars, above ground. The sewer line has been built and covered in violation of the permit. Significant flooding has resulted and a citizen's complaint has been submitted to our office. Enforcement actions for violations of our permit are presently under consideration.

This public notice does not imply, on the parts of the Corps of Engineers or other agencies, either favorable or unfavorable opinion of the work performed; but it is issued to solicit comments on the factors.listed above on which a final decision will be based. Legal action has been suspended pending the outcome of this consideration. The following description of the work is taken from data provided by the applicant and from observations made during an onsite visit by a representative of the Corps of Engineers. Plans submitted with the application show that the fill material presently covers a wetland area of approximately 70 feet long by 20 feet wide,,._and._is about.,3 feet thick. When the wetlands jurisdiction line was being flagged by aCorps of Engineers representative, the fill area in wetlands was larger, but the applicant stated that he would restore the entire area to the pre-project wetland elevation except for that material being applied for in this public notice. The site is a permanently inundated palustrine emergent wetland, vegetated with species including cattail (Typha sp); willow (Sali' sp), red maple (Acer rubrum), tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera), royal fern (Osmunda re alis), and ash (Fraxinus sp). The purpose of the work is to cover-a previously permitted utility line through the area. Plans showing the work are included with this public notice. The State of North Carolina will review this public notice to determine the need for the applicant to obtain any required State authorization. No Department of the Army permit will be issued until the coordinated State viewpoint on the proposal has been received and reviewed by this agency, nor will a Department of the Army permit be issued until the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management has determined the applicability of a Water Quality Certificate as required by PL 92-500. This application is being considered pursuant to Section 404(b) of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). Arty person may request, in writing within the comment period specified in the notice, that a public hearing be held to consider this application. Requests for public hearing shall state, with particularity, the reasons for holding a public hearing. The District Engineer has consulted the latest published version of the National Register of Historic Places for the presence or absence of registered properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein, and this worksite is not registered property or property listed as being eligible for inclusion in the Register. Consultation of the National Register constitutes the extent of cultural resource investigations by the District Engineer, and he is otherwise unaware of the presence of such resources. Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistorical, or historical data may be lost or destroyed by work under the requested permit. The District Engineer has determined, based on a review of data furnished by the applicant and onsite observations, that the activity will riot affect species, or their critical habitat, designated as endangered or threatened pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973. The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity and its intended use on the public interest. Evaluation, of the probable impacts which the proposed activity may have on the public interest requires a careful weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each particular case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. The decision whether to authorize a proposal, and if so the conditions under which it will be allowed to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome-of the general balancing process. That decision should reflect the national concern, for both protection and utilization of important resources. All factors which may be relevant to the proposal must be considered including the cumulative effects thereof. Among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards, flood plain values, land use, navigation, shore erosion and accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of property ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving the placement of dredged or fill materials in waters of the United States, a permit will be denied if the discharge that would be authorized by such permit would not comply with the Environmental Protection Agencies' 404(b)(1) guidelines. Subject to the preceding sentence and any other applicable.guidelines or criteria, a permit will be granted unless the District Engineer determines that it would be contrary to the public interest. Generally, the decision whether to issue this Department of the Army permit will riot be made until the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (DEM) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by le - 0 -3- Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The DEM considers whether or not the proposed activity will comply with Sections 301, 302, 306, and 307 of the Clean Water Act. The application and this public notice for the Department of the Army permit serves as application to the DEM for certification. Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be reviewed at the offices of the Environmental Operations Section, North Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Salisbury Street, Archdale Building, Raleigh, North Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished to any person requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs. The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management plans to take final action in the issuance of the Clean Water Act certification on or after January 19, 1988. All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for Clean Water Act certification should do so in writing delivered to the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Post Office Box 27687, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7687, on or before January 13, 1988, Attention: Mr. William Mills. Written comments pertinent to the proposed work, as outlined above, will be received in this office, Attention: Mr. Jeff Richter, until 4:15 p.m., January 25, 1988,-or telephone (919) 343-4636. of IrI? err ' I HOLLY FOREST "O? .•L M, ,, \? 1 HORSE CREEK I)a / V ^ Ifl• 191 ?sP DARWOO ,,.

As "you 'know, the' DPI` `00', 'oved plans for th'e 'sewerlirw"called ° for it-'to be placed on piers in areas where it would be above natural ground. The fill material which was used to cover the lines has blocked drainage which would have otherwise been unimpeded, it the approved plans had been followed. The single family lots affected by this no longer have positive drainage. We foresee that this may (at its worst) cause flooding of future homes to be built on these lots. In any case, it is certain that an undesirable drainage condition has been created that may contribute to mosquito breeding, snakes, etc. We would prefer that the original approved plans be adhered to on this site, but if the fill is permitted and allowed to remain, positive drainage must be restored. This would require the addition of culverts through the fills or the filling of the lower portion of the lots in question. I have enclosed materials showing the location of the affected lots for your reference. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, All.?

The single family lots affected by this no longer have positive drainage. We foresee that this may (at its worst) cause flooding of future homes to be built on these lots. In any case, it is certain that an undesirable drainage condition has been created that may contribute to mosquito breeding, snakes, etc. We would prefer that the original approved plans be adhered to on this site, but if the fill is permitted and allowed to remain, positive drainage must be restored. This would require the addition of culverts through the fills or the filling of the lower portion of the lots in question. I have enclosed materials showing the location of the affected lots for your reference. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Ashley Hills Subdivision b C? + a, Ntl The Raleigh Regional Office has reviewed the request by Pronto Develop- ment in order to provide comments for issuance of State Water Quality Certifi- cation in accordance with Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. In October 1987, this office responded to a citizen's complaint concern- ing backf ill in a wetland area. Investigation of the construction of the sewer line project revealed that backfill material had already been placed in. the area this project covers. A sewer line permit issued by this Division for the sewer line project required that this specific area (between manhole #7 and #10) be constructed on pillars, above ground. This was not done. Instead, the entire sewer line was covered and has resulted in significant flooding in upstream areas. A "Notice of Violation" is pending for the Director's signature. Therefore, this office recommends denial of State Certification as signi- ficant adverse impact has already been demonstrated. This office is planning to proceed with requiring Pronto Development to construct the sewer line in accordance with the project permit issued by this Division.
