Subject: NW 18 request for fill in wetlands associated with the construction of a primary residence home
in Village Creek at 208 Olde Colony Drive in Edenton, Chowan County.
I am requesting the issuance of a NW 18 permit for fill in wetlands associated with the
construction of new home. The triangle shape of the lot and required setbacks has made it difficult to lay
the foundation of the home. The foundation layout is difficult because of a combination of the triangle
shape lot with a 30-ft. setback on the front and 15-ft. setbacks on sides with a steep slope that grades to
wetlands on the back. The amount of proposed fill in wetlands has been limited to what we needed to
establish a reasonable grade at the back of the lot. With the additional fill, the foundation layout for the
home will be much less burdensome. We are proposing to fill 0.018 acres of wetlands with a sandy clay fill
mixture. This will be graded to a stable slope and seeded. The remaining wetlands on the property will be
left as they are. The PCN, location maps and permit drawings are included with this letter. If you need any
additional information or have any questions concerning this project please call me at 252-482-7977 or
252- 312-3692.

local stormwater requirement, etc.): 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.
Due to community setbacks from property lines the foundation placement must be at the very
back of the lot. The back of the lot has a steep gradient which is were the back corner of the
foundation will be placed. This has created a burden on the foundation layout and construction of
the residence. With the filling of 0.018 acres of wetland the foundation layout is much more
suitable for the construction of the primary residence. The setback lines are detailed on the
provided work plat and illustrate the described problem. We have minimized the amount of fill
going into the wetland and intend to leave the remaining wetlands on the property as they are
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
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.ne.us/ncwetlands/stnngide.html.
Page 7 of 12
I . 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.
N/A
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.ne.tis/wm/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): N/A
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): N/A
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
IX. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public funds or the use of public (federal/state/local)
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)?
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 ?

X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (DWQ Only)
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
(Neuse), 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* Impact
(square feet) Multiplier Required
Mitigation

2 1.5
Total
* 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.
N/A
XI. Stormwater (DWQ Only)
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.
Impervious acreage will increase slightly due to the roof surface of the residence. However, there
will be adequate buffer area for rainwater to infiltrate into the lawn prior to drainage into any
surface waters.

XII. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Only)
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.
XIII. Violations (DWQ Only)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H.0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No
XIV. 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).

along small streams and rivers that flow into the
Albemarle Sound and Chowan River. It is most common
in the western part of Chowan County. Most of the
acreage of this map unit is in cultivated crops. The rest
is mainly in woodland. The mapped areas are irregular in
shape and range from 5 to 100 acres.
Typically, the surface layer is grayish brown fine sand
10 inches thick. The subsoil is light gray fine sand 20
inches thick. The underlying material to a depth of 80
inches is light gray fine sand or sand.
Permeability is rapid, and the available water capacity
is low. The upper part of the soil is strongly acid or
medium acid, and the lower part ranges from very
strongly acid to slightly acid. The seasonal high water
table is 2 to 4 feet below the surface.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Dragston, Munden, and Wando soils. Most of the
included soils are near the outer edge of delineations.
The included soils make up about 10 percent of the map
unit.
Soil Survey
This Seabrook soil is suited to most local crops.
Peanuts, corn and soybeans are the dominant crops.
Wetness and the hazard of soil blowing are the main
limitations to use for crops. Winter cover crops, minimum
tillage, and crop residue management help to maintain
tilth. No-till planting, field borders, and crop rotations that
include close growing crops help to conserve soil and
water. This soil is well suited to pasture forages.
The dominant native trees are loblolly pine, sweetgum,
red maple, yellow-poplar, willow oak, water oak, black
cherry, and American beech. The understory is dogwood,
sourwood, sweetbay, sassafras, and a variety of briers
and reeds.
This soil is poorly suited to most urban uses because
of wetness. This soil is poorly suited to most recreational
uses because of the fine sand surface layer.
This Seabrook soil is in capability subclass Ills and in
woodland group 3s.

SuA-State-Urban land complex, 0 to 2 percent
slopes. This map unit consists of intermingled areas of
well drained State soil and Urban land, mainly in
Edenton and Hertford. State soil makes up about 50 to
60 percent of this complex and the Urban land about 15
percent. The State soil and Urban land are so intricately
intermingled that it was not practical to separate them at
the scale selected for mapping.
Typically, the surface layer of State soil is dark grayish
brown loamy fine sand 7 inches thick. The subsurface
layer is pale brown loamy fine sand 6 inches thick. The
subsoil is 29 inches thick. It is strong brown sandy clay
loam in the upper part and yellowish brown fine sandy
loam in the lower part. The underlying material to a
depth of 60 inches is brownish yellow sand.
Permeability is moderate to moderately rapid, and the
available water capacity is high. The soil is very strongly
acid or strongly acid in the upper part and very strongly
acid to medium acid in the lower part. The seasonal high
water table is 4 to 6 feet below the surface.
The Urban land consists of areas where the original
soil has been cut, filled, graded, paved, or otherwise
modified to the extent that most soil properties have
been altered. These areas are now used for shopping
centers, factories, homes, municipal buildings, apartment
complexes, parking lots, or other uses where buildings
are closely spaced or the soil is covered with pavement.
Included with this complex in mapping are small cut
and fill areas where natural soil has been altered or
do

areas where the surface layer has been limed. The
seasonal high water table is within 0.5 foot to 1.5 feet of
the surface.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Perquimans, Roanoke, Yeopim, and Wahee soils.
Roanoke and Perquimans soils are in small depressions.
Yeopim soils are on small knolls. Wahee soils are near
the outer edge of delineations. The included soils make
up about 10 percent of the map unit.
This Chapanoke soil is well suited to most local crops.
Corn and soybeans are the dominant crops. Wetness is
the main limitation to use for crops. Winter cover crops,
minimum tillage, and crop residue management help to
maintain tilth. No-till planting, field borders, and crop
rotations that include close growing crops help to
conserve soil and water. This soil is well suited to
pasture forages.
The dominant native trees are loblolly pine, sweetgum,
red maple, yellow-poplar, willow oak, water oak, black
cherry, and American beech. The understory is dogwood,
sourwood, sweetbay, sassafras, and a variety of briers
and reeds. Wetness is the main limitation to woodland
management.
This soil is poorly suited to most urban and
recreational uses. Wetness is the main limitation.
This Chapanoke soil is in capability subclass Illw and
in woodland group 2w.
CO-Chowan silt loam. This nearly level, very poorly
drained soil is on flood plains of small streams that flow
into the Albemarle Sound, Chowan River, and
Perquimans River. All of the acreage of this map unit is
in woodland. The mapped areas are oblong and are up
to 500 acres.
Typically, the surface layer is dark grayish brown silt
loam 6 inches thick. Below that, to a depth of 27 inches,
is gray silty clay loam in the upper part and dark grayish
brown silt loam in the lower part. The underlying material
to a depth of 80 inches is black muck.
Permeability is moderately slow in the mineral horizon
and moderately rapid to moderately slow in the organic
horizon. The soil ranges from extremely acid to medium
acid in the mineral horizon and is extremely acid or very
strongly acid in the organic horizon. This soil is
frequently flooded for very long periods.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Dorovan muck. The Dorovan muck is commonly on the
downstream side of the map unit. Also included are
areas of soils that have overlying mineral material less
than 16 inches thick. The included soils make up about
10 to 20 percent of the map unit.
The dominant native trees on this Chowan soil are
green ash, pond pine, baldcypress, sweetgum, Atlantic
white-cedar, water tupelo, and red maple (fig. 4). The
understory is mainly sweetbay, greenbrier, sourwood,
and giant cane. Wetness and poor trafficability are the
main limitations to woodland management.
This soil is poorly suited to agricultural uses. Wetness
and frequent flooding make it unsuitable for use as
cropland.
This soil is poorly suited to urban and recreational
uses because of the hazard of frequent flooding. Low
strength is a limitation to local roads and streets.
This Chowan soil is in capability subclass Vllw and in
woodland group 2w.
CtB-Conetoe loamy sand, 0 to 5 percent slopes.
This well drained soil is on low ridges near the small
streams that flow into the Albemarle Sound and Chowan
River. Most of the acreage of this map unit is in
cultivated crops. The rest is mainly in woodland or
pasture. Most mapped areas are oblong and irregular in
width. They range from 5 to 500 acres.
Typically, the surface layer is brown loamy sand 7
inches thick. The subsurface layer is brownish yellow
loamy fine sand 18 inches thick. The subsoil is 35 inches
thick. It is brownish yellow sandy loam in the upper part,
strong brown sandy loam in the middle part, and
brownish yellow loamy sand in the lower part. The
underlying material to a depth of 82 inches is brownish
yellow sand.
Permeability is moderately rapid, and the available
water capacity is low. The soil ranges from very strongly
acid to medium acid throughout, except in areas where
the surface layer has been limed.
Included with this soil in mapping are small areas of
Wando, Munden, and Bojac soils. Most of the included
soils occur at random within the map unit with no
apparent change in landscape to indicate their presence.
Munden soils are in slight depressions. The included
soils make up about 10 to 15 percent of the map unit.
This Contoe soil is well suited to peanuts. It is suited
to most other local crops. Peanuts, tobacco, cotton,
corn, soybeans, and a variety of truck crops are the
dominant crops (fig. 5). The main limitations to use for
crops, are leaching of plant nutrients, the hazard of soil
blowing, and droughtiness. Blowing sand can damage
young plants. Alternate planting of rows of small grain
can help prevent damage to young tender plants, such
as watermelons. Winter cover crops, minimum tillage,
and crop residue management help to reduce soil
blowing and conserve moisture. No-till planting,
windbreaks, and crop rotations that include close
growing crops also help to conserve soil and water.
Fertilizers, particularly nitrogen, should be added in split
applications. This soil is well suited to pasture forages,
such as coastal bermudagrass and bahiagrass.
The dominant native trees are loblolly pine, longleaf
pine, red maple, hickory, sweetgum, black tupelo,
southern red oak, white oak, and post oak. The
understory is mainly dogwood, sassafras, American holly,
and sourwood. Low available water capacity is the main
limitation to woodland management.
