Creek. A small wetland finger extends out into the upland, on the front of the lot. This is a hillside crenelation that has been mowed. The upland in the front of the property has also
been mowed, with larger trees still remaining.

The purpose of this project is construct a 4,040 SF commercial building and install a 1"- 2" PVC septic, drain field line.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*
The project will entail using a backhoe to remove vegetation from the two proposed wetland impact areas. Clean earthen soil will be used to fill 320 SF of wetland for the proposed
building pad (Impact Area 1). A ditch witch or mini excavator will be used to create a trench, in which the sewer line will be placed, to a depth of 3' belowthe eAsting ground surface. The
disturbed area will be back-filled with the material dislodged by the excavation work, returned to the original grade and contour and allowed to re -vegetate naturally.
4j. Please upload project drawings for the proposed project.

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:
In order to adhere to New Hanover County commercial development requirements (i.e. front and side setbacks, vegetated buffers and Conservation
Overlay District, which prohibits built upon area within 50' from a Swamp Forest Wetland, avoidance is not possible. Therefore, the Applicant limited
the size of the building, to the smallest area practicable for its use, and oriented the structure in such a way that the parking lot could be placed
outside of the wetlands, thereby minimizing wetland impacts necessary
to facilitate the development.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
Sediment and erosion control measures will be installed prior to land disturbing activities, which should prevent unauthorized discharges of sediment
into the remaining wetlands and/or downstream receiving waters. The measures will be inspected as required to ensure that they are operating as
intended.
2. Compensatory
Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State
2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
r Yes F No
2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation,
explain why:
The proposed permanent impact is minimal (i.e. 0.007 AC or 320 SF). Therefore, the loss of wetland function is anticipated to be insignificant.
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)

1. Diffuse Flow Plan
1a. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?
f Yes r No
If no, explain why:
This site is not located within a NC Riparian Buffer River Basin.
2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOT's Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?*
f Yes r No
2b. Does this project meet the requirements for low density projects as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .1003(2)?
r Yes r No
Comments:
This project is exempt from State Stormwater requirements, as the proposed built upon area is less than 10,000 square feet.
G. Supplementary Information
1. Environmental Documentation
1a. Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state/local) funds or the use of public (federal/state) land?*
r Yes r No
2. Violations (DWR Requirement)
v
2a. Is the site in violation of DWR Water Quality Certification Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500), Isolated Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H.1300), or DWR Surface Water or Wetland Standards or
Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0200)?*
r Yes r No
3. Cumulative Impacts (DWR Requirement)
3a. Will this project result in additional development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality?*
(- Yes r No
3b. If you answered "no," provide a short narrative description.
This is a single and complete project. All buildable area will be utilized with the proposed plan and the proposed development will not provide access to
landlocked properties.
4. Sewage Disposal (DWR Requirement)
4a. Is sewage disposal required by DWR for this project?*
r Yes r Nor N/A
4b. Describe, in detail, the treatment methods and dispositions (non -discharge or discharge) of wastewater generated from the proposed project. If the wastewater will be treated
at a treatment plant, list the capacity available at that plant.
Septic will be the method by which wastewater will be treated.
5. Endangered Species and Designated Critical Habitat (Corps Requirement)
5a. Will this project occur in or near an area with federally protected species or habitat?
r Yes r No
5b. Have you checked with the USFWS concerning Endangered Species Act impacts?*
r Yes r No
5d. Is another Federal agency involved?*
r Yes r No
r Unknown
5j. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact Endangered Species or Designated Critical Habitat?
SEGi determined the proposed project is likely not to adversely effect T&E and/or Critical Habitat based on the location of the project site, which is in a
densely developed, commercial area of New Hanover County and very close to an international airport. In addition, there are no streams on the site
and the uplands are routinely mowed.

r Yes r No
7b. What data sources did you use to determine whether your site would impact historic or archeological resources?*
