10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The
subdivision consists of developing 95+/- lots & 35,000 +/- linear feet of roads. The roads &
stream crossings will be constructed using; trackhoes & articulating dump trucks Some
accumulation of sediment from road construction has occurred. The accumulated sediment
has been removed by hand using shovels & 5 gal. buckets. Some stream bank erosion has
occurred at the confluence of 2 culverts. Boulder drop structures are proposed to reduce the
velocity of the stream & boulder reinforcement of the stream bank are proposed to stabilize
the stream bank. The stream work will be accomplished using a trackhoe.
11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The construction of roads is for residential
subdivision development. The stream mitigation is proposed to correct stream sedimentation
& to stabilize a stream channel.

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.
An easement across Forest Service land is the only access to the site from Garnet Road
(which served several former homesites). An existing unimproved road crossed Long Branch
twice with no culverts. To minimize disturbance to the stream and site, the existing road bed
was improved with culvert crossings to county subdivision road standards. The road alignment
and stream crossings followed the previously approved roadway drawings that were given to the
present Owners the previous property owner. The Owner mistakenly assumed that all requisite
(continued on attached sheet).
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.
Page 9 of 12
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

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
(continued from Page 9 of 12)
permits were in place when the approved erosion control permit and Forest Service encroachment
agreement was transferred to Longbranch Properties, LLC from the prior owner. The existing logging
roads and stream crossings were incorporated into the road and lot layout to minimize site and stream
disturbance.
Erosion control measures and storm drainage pipes have been installed to prevent further sedimentation
of Long Branch and its tributaries. Restoration work will be performed in the dry to prevent
sedimentation downstream. Long Branch will be piped during the placement of boulders and the
installation of the drop/pools.
VIII. Mitigation
1. Description of Proposed Work (continued from Page 10 of 12):
3. Enhance 180 If of tributary to Long Branch by replanting trout buffer.
4. Enhance 420 If of Long Branch by replanting trout buffer.
5. Remove deposited sediment (by hand) 1500 If of Long Branch.

The mitigation plan is as follows:
Long Branch
Long Branch is a second order stream. The stream channel is unstable with down cutting
streambed and undercutting and collapsing stream banks where the stream passes through an
area that was clear cut by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream
will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream. Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step
pools to flatten the stream gradient and reduce the water velocity. The stream banks will be laid
back and boulder armoring will be installed to stabilize the stream banks. Long Branch will be
piped temporarily during construction of the new channel to prevent sedimentation downstream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 420 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 1500 If of stream by removing deposited sediment in the stream.
The sediment was deposited by earthwork activities by the present and previous property owner.
The sediment will be removed by hand using shovels and 5 gal. buckets and placed on high
ground and stabilized with permanent vegetation.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plans.
Unnamed Tributarv to Long Branch
Unnamed tributary to Long Branch is a first order stream that originates from springheads 1300 If
upstream from the confluence with Long Branch. The stream was piped for 100 If with 12" cmp
by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream by removing the existing culvert and rerouting the
stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream.
Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step pools to flatten the stream gradient and
reduce the water velocity. The proposed channel will be constructed prior to diverting the water
from the existing stream channel into the new stream channel.
The Owner proposes enhancing 180 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plan.

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.
An easement across Forest Service land is the only access to the site from Garnet Road
(which served several former homesites). An existing unimproved road crossed Long Branch
twice with no culverts. To minimize disturbance to the stream and site, the existing road bed
was improved with culvert crossings to county subdivision road standards. The road alignment
and stream crossings followed the previously approved roadway drawings that were given to the
present Owner by the previous property owner. The Owner mistakenly assumed that all requisite
(continued on attached sheet).
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.
Page 9 of 12
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.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.htmi.

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
(continued from Page 9 of 12)
permits were in place when the approved erosion control permit and Forest Service encroachment
agreement was transferred to Longbranch Properties, LLC from the prior owner. The existing logging
roads and stream crossings were incorporated into the road and lot layout to minimize site and stream
disturbance.
Erosion control measures and storm drainage pipes have been installed to prevent further sedimentation
of Long Branch and its tributaries. Restoration work will be performed in the dry to prevent
sedimentation downstream. Long Branch will be piped during the placement of boulders and the
installation of the drop/pools.

The mitigation plan is as follows:
Long Branch
Long Branch is a second order stream. The stream channel is unstable with down cutting
streambed and undercutting and collapsing stream banks where the stream passes through an
area that was clear cut by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream
will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream. Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step
pools to flatten the stream gradient and reduce the water velocity. The stream banks will be laid
back and boulder armoring will be installed to stabilize the stream banks. Long Branch will be
piped temporarily during construction of the new channel to prevent sedimentation downstream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 420 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 1500 If of stream by removing deposited sediment in the stream.
The sediment was deposited by earthwork activities by the present and previous property owner.
The sediment will be removed by hand using shovels and 5 gal. buckets and placed on high
ground and stabilized with permanent vegetation.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plans.
Unnamed Tributary to LonLy Branch
Unnamed tributary to Long Branch is a first order stream that originates from springheads 1300 If
upstream from the confluence with Long Branch. The stream was piped for 100 If with 12" cmp
by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream by removing the existing culvert and rerouting the
stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream.
Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step pools to flatten the stream gradient and
reduce the water velocity. The proposed channel will be constructed prior to diverting the water
from the existing stream channel into the new stream channel.
The Owner proposes enhancing 180 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plan.

M. Project Information
Attach a vicinity map clearly showing the location of the property with respect to local
landmarks such as towns, rivers, and roads. Also provide a detailed site plan showing property
boundaries and development plans in relation to surrounding properties. Both the vicinity map
and site plan must include a scale and north arrow. The specific footprints of all buildings,
impervious surfaces, or other facilities must be included. If possible, the maps and plans should
include the appropriate USGS Topographic Quad Map and NRCS Soil Survey with the property
boundaries outlined. Plan drawings, or other maps may be included at the applicant's discretion,
so long as the property is clearly defined. For administrative and distribution purposes, the
USACE requires information to be submitted on sheets no larger than 11 by 17-inch format;
however, DWQ may accept paperwork of any size. DWQ prefers full-size construction
drawings rather than a sequential sheet version of the full-size plans. If full-size plans are
reduced to a small scale such that the final version is illegible, the applicant will be informed that
the project has been placed on hold until decipherable maps are provided.

9. Describe the existing conditions on the site and general land use in the vicinity of the project
at the time of this application: Prior to development the site consisted of pine & hardwood
forest with logging roads with culverts at stream crossings. Presently subdivision roads have
been constructed with improved culvert stream crossings.
Page 6 of 12
10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: The
subdivision consists of developing 95+/- lots & 35,000 +/- linear feet of roads. The roads &
stream crossings will be constructed using trackhoes & articulating dump trucks Some
accumulation of sediment from road construction has occurred. The accumulated sediment
has been removed by hand using shovels & 5 gal. buckets. Some stream bank erosion has
occurred at the confluence of 2 culverts. Boulder drop structures are proposed to reduce the
velocity of the stream & boulder reinforcement of the stream bank are proposed to stabilize
the stream bank. The stream work will be accomplished using a trackhoe.
11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: The construction of roads is for residential
subdivision development. The stream mitigation is proposed to correct stream sedimentation
& to stabilize a stream channel.

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.
An easement across Forest Service land is the only access to the site from Garnet Road
(which served several former homesites). An existing unimproved road crossed Long Branch
twice with no culverts. To minimize disturbance to the stream and site, the existing road bed
was improved with culvert crossings to county subdivision road standards. The road alignment
and stream crossings followed the previously approved roadway drawings that were given to the
present Owner by the previous property owner. The Owner mistakenly assumed that all requisite
(continued on attached sheet).
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.
Page 9 of 12
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/strmgide.html.
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.
1. Restore 100 If of tributary to Long Branch by removing existing 12"cmp and
reestablishing stream channel with drops and pools.
2. Retore 100 if of Long Branch by installing boulder drop/pools and boulder streambank
stabilization .
(continued on attached sheet)
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/3M/index.htm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the

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).

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
(continued from Page 9 of 12)
permits were in place when the approved erosion control permit and Forest Service encroachment
agreement was transferred to Longbranch Properties, LLC from the prior owner. The existing logging
roads and stream crossings were incorporated into the road and lot layout to minimize site and stream
disturbance.
Erosion control measures and storm drainage pipes have been installed to prevent further sedimentation
of Long Branch and its tributaries. Restoration work will be performed in the dry to prevent
sedimentation downstream. Long Branch will be piped during the placement of boulders and the
installation of the drop/pools.
V111. Mitigation
1. Description of Proposed Work (continued from Page 10 of 12):
3. Enhance 180 If of tributary to Long Branch by replanting trout buffer.
4. Enhance 420 If of Long Branch by replanting trout buffer.
5. Remove deposited sediment (by hand) 1500 If of Long Branch.
Table 'A' summarizes the mitigation requirements.

The mitigation plan is as follows:
Long Branch
Long Branch is a second order stream. The stream channel is unstable with down cutting
streambed and undercutting and collapsing stream banks where the stream passes through an
area that was clear cut by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream
will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream. Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step
pools to flatten the stream gradient and reduce the water velocity. The stream banks will be laid
back and boulder armoring will be installed to stabilize the stream banks. Long Branch will be
piped temporarily during construction of the new channel to prevent sedimentation downstream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 420 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 1500 If of stream by removing deposited sediment in the stream.
The sediment was deposited by earthwork activities by the present and previous property owner.
The sediment will be removed by hand using shovels and 5 gal. buckets and placed on high
ground and stabilized with permanent vegetation.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plans.

J
Unnamed Tributarv to Long Branch
Unnamed tributary to Long Branch is a first order stream that originates from springheads 1300 If
upstream from the confluence with Long Branch. The stream was piped for 100 If with 12" cmp
by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream by removing the existing culvert and rerouting the
stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream.
Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step pools to flatten the stream gradient and
reduce the water velocity. The proposed channel will be constructed prior to diverting the water
from the existing stream channel into the new stream channel.
The Owner proposes enhancing 180 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plan.

M. Project Information
Attach a vicinity map clearly showing the location of the property with respect to local
landmarks such as towns, rivers, and roads. Also provide a detailed site plan showing property
boundaries and development plans in relation to surrounding properties. Both the vicinity map
and site plan must include a scale and north arrow. The specific footprints of all buildings,
impervious surfaces, or other facilities must be included. If possible, the maps and plans should
include the appropriate USGS Topographic Quad Map and NRCS Soil Survey with the property
boundaries outlined. Plan drawings, or other maps may be included at the applicant's discretion,
so long as the property is clearly defined. For administrative and distribution purposes, the
USACE requires information to be submitted on sheets no larger than 11 by 17-inch format;
however, DWQ may accept paperwork of any size. DWQ prefers full-size construction
drawings rather than a sequential sheet version of the full-size plans. If full-size plans are
reduced to a small scale such that the final version is illegible, the applicant will be informed that
the project has been placed on hold until decipherable maps are provided.

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.
An easement across Forest Service land is the onlv access to the site from Garnet Road
(which served several former homesites). An existing unimproved road crossed Long Branch
twice with no culverts. To minimize disturbance to the stream and site, the existing road bed
was improved with culvert crossings to county subdivision road standards. The road alignment
and stream crossings followed the previously approved roadway drawings that were given to the
present Owner by the previous property owner. The Owner mistakenly assumed that all requisite
(continued on attached sheet).
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.
Page 9 of 12
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.nc.us/ncwetiands/strmgide.html.
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.

VI1. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
(continued from Page 9 of 12)
permits were in place when the approved erosion control permit and Forest Service encroachment
agreement was transferred to Longbranch Properties, LLC from the prior owner. The existing logging
roads and stream crossings were incorporated into the road and lot layout to minimize site and stream
disturbance.
Erosion control measures and storm drainage pipes have been installed to prevent further sedimentation
of Long Branch and its tributaries. Restoration work will be performed in the dry to prevent
sedimentation downstream. Long Branch will be piped during the placement of boulders and the
installation of the drop/pools.
VIII. Mitigation
1. Description of Proposed Work (continued from Page 10 of 12):
3. Enhance 180 If of tributary to Long Branch by replanting trout buffer.
4. Enhance 420 If of Long Branch by replanting trout buffer.
5. Remove deposited sediment (by hand) 1500 If of Long Branch.

The mitigation plan is as follows:
Long Branch
Long Branch is a second order stream. The stream channel is unstable with down cutting
streambed and undercutting and collapsing stream banks where the stream passes through an
area that was clear cut by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream
will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream. Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step
pools to flatten the stream gradient and reduce the water velocity. The stream banks will be laid
back and boulder armoring will be installed to stabilize the stream banks. Long Branch will be
piped temporarily during construction of the new channel to prevent sedimentation downstream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 420 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 1500 If of stream by removing deposited sediment in the stream.
The sediment was deposited by earthwork activities by the present and previous property owner.
The sediment will be removed by hand using shovels and 5 gal. buckets and placed on high
ground and stabilized with permanent vegetation.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plans.

Unnamed Tributarv to Lone Branch
Unnamed tributary to Long Branch is a first order stream that originates from springheads 1300 If
upstream from the confluence with Long Branch. The stream was piped for 100 If with 12" cmp
by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream by removing the existing culvert and rerouting the
stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream.
Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step pools to flatten the stream gradient and
reduce the water velocity. The proposed channel will be constructed prior to diverting the water
from the existing stream channel into the new stream channel.
The Owner proposes enhancing 180 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plan.

Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.):
Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area:
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.
An easement across Forest Service land is the only access to the site from Garnet Road
(which served several former homesites). An existing; unimproved road crossed Long Branch
twice with no culverts. To minimize disturbance to the stream and site, the existing road bed
was improved with culvert crossings to county subdivision road standards. The road alignment
and stream crossings followed the previously approved roadway drawings that were given to the
present Owner by the previous property owner. The Owner mistakenly assumed that all requisite
(continued on attached sheet).
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.
Page 9 of 12
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.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.
1. Restore 100 if of tributary to Long Branch by removing existing 12"cm and
reestablishing stream channel with drops and pools.
2. Retore 100 if of Long Branch by installing boulder drop//pools and boulder streambank
stabilization .
(continued on attached sheet)
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

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
(continued from Page 9 of 12)
permits were in place when the approved erosion control permit and Forest Service encroachment
agreement was transferred to Longbranch Properties, LLC from the prior owner. The existing logging
roads and stream crossings were incorporated into the road and lot layout to minimize site and stream
disturbance.
Erosion control measures and storm drainage pipes have been installed to prevent further sedimentation
of Long Branch and its tributaries. Restoration work will be performed in the dry to prevent
sedimentation downstream. Long Branch will be piped during the placement of boulders and the

The mitigation plan is as follows:
Long Branch
Long Branch is a second order stream. The stream channel is unstable with down cutting
streambed and undercutting and collapsing stream banks where the stream passes through an
area that was clear cut by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream
will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream. Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step
pools to flatten the stream gradient and reduce the water velocity. The stream banks will be laid
back and boulder armoring will be installed to stabilize the stream banks. Long Branch will be
piped temporarily during construction of the new channel to prevent sedimentation downstream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 420 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
The Owner proposes enhancing 1500 If of stream by removing deposited sediment in the stream.
The sediment was deposited by earthwork activities by the present and previous property owner.
The sediment will be removed by hand using shovels and 5 gal. buckets and placed on high
ground and stabilized with permanent vegetation.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plans.
Unnamed Tributarv to LonLy Branch
Unnamed tributary to Long Branch is a first order stream that originates from springheads 1300 If
upstream from the confluence with Long Branch. The stream was piped for 100 If with 12" cmp
by a prior property owner.
The Owner proposes restoring 100 If of stream by removing the existing culvert and rerouting the
stream to create a stable channel. The restored stream will be constructed as a Type 'B' stream.
Boulder drop structures will be installed to create step pools to flatten the stream gradient and
reduce the water velocity. The proposed channel will be constructed prior to diverting the water
from the existing stream channel into the new stream channel.
The Owner proposes enhancing 180 If of stream to provide shade cover and a vegetative buffer
for the stream. Riparian vegetation will be planted within the 25' buffer on both sides of the
stream.
Please refer to attached restoration and enhancement plan.
