Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification and Authorization Certificate per the Neuse
River Buffer Protection Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233) with Additional Conditions
Dear Sir or Madam:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached 6onditions and those listed below, to
place fill within or otherwise impact 0.196 acres of wetlands, and 3,189 square feet (ft2) of
protected riparian buffers for the purpose of residential subdivision at the subject property, as
described within your application dated May 6, 2005 and received by the N.C. Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) on May 6, 2005. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the
impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3402 (GC3402). The
Certification(s) allows you to use Nationwide Permit(s) 39 when issued by the US Army Corps
of Engineers (USACE). This letter shall also act as your approved Authorization Certificate for
impacts to the protected riparian buffers per 15A NCAC 2B .0233. In addition, you should
obtain or otherwise comply with any other required federal, state or local permits before you go
ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion and Sediment Control, Water
Supply, Watershed and Non-discharge regulations. Also, this approval to proceed with your
proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application shall
expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change
your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If the
property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter and
is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions.. If total fills for this project (now or in
the future) exceed one acre of wetland or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory mitigation may
be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:

2. Erosion & Sediment Control Practices
Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications
governing the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best
Management Practices in order to protect surface waters standards:
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed,
installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the
North Carolina SedimAt and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion
control measures must be such that they equal.,or exceed, the requirements specified
in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control
Manual. The devices shall be maintained on all`, construction sites, borrow sites, and
waste pile (spoil) projects, including contractor-awned or leased borrow pits
associated with the project.
3. Diffuse Flow
All constructed stormwater conveyance outlets shall be directed and maintained as
diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected stream buffers such that it
will not re-concentrate before discharging into a stream as identified within 15A NCAC
2B .0233 (5). If this is not possible, it may be necessary to provide stormwater facilities
that are considered to remove nitrogen. This may require additional approval from this
Office.
4. Protective Fencing
The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary and along the construction corridor within
these boundaries approved under this authorization shall be clearly marked with orange
warning fencing (or similar high visibility material) for the areas that have been approved
to infringe within the buffer, wetland or water prior to any land disturbing activities to
ensure compliance with 15A NCAC 2B .0233 and GC 3402.
5. Deed Notifications
Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all retained jurisdictional
wetlands, waters and protective buffers in order to assure compliance for future wetland,
water and buffer impact. These mechanisms shall be put in place prior to impacting any

wetlands, waters and/or buffers approved for impact under this Certification Approval
and Authorization Certificate. A sample deed notification can be downloaded from the
401/Wetlands Unit web site at k ttp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. The text of the
sample deed notification may be modified as appropriate to suit to this project.
6. Culvert Installation
Culverts required for this project shall be installed in such a manner that the original stream
profiles are not altered. Existing stream dimensions (including the cross section
dimensions, pattern, and longitudinal profile) must be maintained above and below
locations of each culvert. Culverts shall be designed and installed to allow for aquatic life
movement as well as to prevent head cutting of the streams. If any of the existing pipes are
or become perched, the appropriate stream grade shall be re-established or, if the pipes
installed in a perched manner, the pipes shall be removed and re-installed correctly.
Installation of culverts in wetlands must ensure continuity of water movement and be
designed to adequately accommodate high water or flood conditions.
7. No Waste, Spoil, Solids, or Fill;of Any Kind
No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas
beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the?'re-Construction Notification. All
construction activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of
sediment and erosion control Best Management Practices, shall be performed so that no
violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur.
No Sediment & Erosion Control Measures w/n Wetlands or Waters
Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the
maximum extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in
wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored
within six months of the date that the Division of Land Resources has released the
proj ect.
9. Certificate of Completion

Phase I, in Rolesville, NC (Wake County)
MAY 8 2005
" Dear Ms. Wade-and Ms. Karol ,
y WEX4 AND ArsMWMTMM M
Attached is the completed PCN Application Form for proposed wetland and Neuse River
Buffer impacts required for Pinecrest Subdivision Phase I (PIN 1769.02-88-5127) in
Rolesville (Wake County). The site covers 87.85 acres (Phase I is 78.18 acres), off of
US-401 (Louisburg Road) north of Rolesville and is in the Neuse River Basin.
Jurisdictional wetlands on this site were delineated and site concurrence meetings were
held with Mr. Mike Horan of NC DWQ on March 10, 2005 and with Ms. Andrea Wade
of USACE on April 19, 2005. A site plan labeled "Pinecrest Subdivision - Wetland and
Neuse River Buffer Impact Map (Drawing Sheet WL-1.0)" is attached to illustrate
proposed wetland and Neuse River Buffer impacts. Also attached are: Drawing Sheet
WL-2.0, showing zoomed in views of specific impact areas; Drawing Sheet C-3.0, the
Storm Drainage and Ditch Design Site Plan; and Drawing Sheet C-3.1, the Site Erosion
Control Plan.
Proposed wetland impacts in Impact Area #1 (0.0651 acres) are required for grading and
storm drainage associated with the main road in the subdivision. This road was oriented
along the eastern property boundary rather than the southern boundary in order to
minimize wetland impacts.
Proposed wetland impacts in Impact Area #2 (0.0243 acres) are required for grading and
storm drainage associated with the installation of a residential driveway to Lot 40.
A 30-foot wide private driveway easement was placed on Lot 40 across the wetland area.
This entire wetland area would potentially not be impacted. The driveway would be a
standard 12-foot wide driveway and would require a culvert in order to pass the flow
from the north beneath the driveway. The alignment of the driveway is unknown at this
time, so all of the wetlands within the 30-foot easement are shown as impacted. The
actual impact is expected to be far less than the 0.0243 acres proposed.
Proposed wetland impacts in Impact Area #3 (0.1066 acres) are required for grading and
storm drainage associated with the main entrance into the subdivision. The subdivision
Phone: [phone] ? Fax: [phone] ? 972 Trinity Road ? Raleigh, North Carolina 27607
entrance was moved as far to the north as possible in order to reduce the wetland impacts
associated with its installation. The shift was restricted by the proximity of an adjacent
property and required boundary setbacks.
Proposed impacts to Neuse River Buffers in Impact Area #4 (ZI NRB -1583 sgft, Z2
NRB Permanent - 51 sgft, Z2 NRB Temporary -1555 sgft) are necessary to provide a
turning lane into the subdivision and are required by the NC Department of
Transportation. The proposed impacts are the result of approximately 2 feet of additional
pavement (at Impact Area #4) to US-401 and the associated grading and drainage ditch
relocation. A large portion of the area where the proposed Neuse River Buffer impacts
would occur consists of grassed areas on the sides of US-401 and all of the impacts occur
within the Right-Of-Way.
The owner anticipates an additional permit application for Phase II of Pinecrest
Subdivision. Phase II includes two lots in the northwestern corner of the property. The
feasibility of these lots is currently being examined.
Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions, comments or concerns about
this application. Thank ybu in advance for your time spent reviewing this permit
application.

List each impact separately and identify temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: fill, excavation, dredging,
flooding, drainage, bulkheads, etc.
5. Pond Creation
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

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
Size of watershed draining to pond: N/A Expected pond surface area: N/A
Page 9 of 14
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.
The subdivision entrance roadway was moved as far to the north as possible in order to
reduce the wetland impacts associated with its installation (Impact Area #3). The shift was
restricted by the proximity of an adjacent proppa and required boundary setbacks The main
road through the subdivision was oriented along the eastern property boundary, rather than along
the southern portion of the property, to minimize wetland impacts -pact Area #1).
The proposed driveway impact mpact Area #2 is required to gain access to Lot 40 A 30-
foot wide private driveway easement was placed on Lot 40 across the wetland area This entire
wetland area would potentially not be impacted. The driveway would be a standard 12-foot wide
driveway and would require a culvert in order to pass the flow from the north beneath the
driveway. The alignment of the driveway is unknown at this time so all of the wetlands within
the 30-foot easement are shown as impacted The actual impact is expected to be far less than
the 0.1066, acres proposed.
The proposed widening impacts to Neuse River Buffers (Impact Area #4) are necesM to
provide a turning lane into the subdivision and are required by Wake County The proposed
impact is the result of approximately 2 feet of additional pavement at Impact Area #4 to US
401 and the associated grading and drainage ditch relocation. A large portion of the area where
the proposed Neuse River Buffer impacts would occur is currently a grassed area on the side of
the existing portions of US-401.
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 March 9, 2000, 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
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
Page 10 of 14
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 NCWRP 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 owner does not anticipate any mitigation.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the
following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): None
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): None
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): None
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): None
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): None
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public
(federal/state) land?
Yes ? No
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Page 11 of 14
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No ?
If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes ? No ?
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )?
Yes ® No ? If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.
Zone* I Impact I Multiplier I Required
i ...?. r .? a r;....:
1 1583 3
2 (51 Perm) (1555 Temp) 1.5
Total 1 (1634 Perm) (1555 Temp)
Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an
additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.
If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or.0260.
Buffer mitigation is not required.
Page 12 of 14
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
There are no impervious surfaces existing on the site. Post development impervious areas would
include streets driveways, and houses. The proposed roads within the subdivision will account
for 1.83 acres of impervious surfaces, or 2.4% of Phase I. The remaining 27.6% of the allowed
impervious surfaces before the 30% threshold is reached would allow in excess of a half acre of
impervious surface per lot (38 lots total in Phase I). This amount rg eatly exceeds the expected
amount of impervious area.
Storm water on the site will be conducted to level spreaders through grassed swales reinforced
with material that will reduce erosion while not interfering_ with plant growth. The massed
swales will provide treatment durm kggport and level spreaders will release stormwater as
diffuse flow through Neuse River Buffers. Silt fence, temporary sediment basins, and diversion
ditches will be used during construction to control sediment movement.
XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
Wastewater generated on the site will be treated by septic systems on each lot.
XIII. Violations (required by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 21-1.0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No
Page 13 of 14
X1V. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may.
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
