' '- DWQ June 13, 2005 Letter (Project No. 05- T 0736). O :1" 1 `?0lc?? Dear Mr. Tugwell, et: al.: On behalf of our, client, Heritage Pines LLC, we are hereby providing additional information in response to comments received during the Public Notice period, our meetings on June 14, 2005, July 6, 2005, July 29, 2005, and various other correspondences with the reviewing agencies during the Fall/Winter of 2005. This additional information is an amendment to our existing Individual Permit application under review by both the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; Action ID No. 200520456) and DWQ (Project No. 05-0736) for the completion of the Heritage Pines development. As stated within the application, approval has been received for Phase 1 from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; Action ID 199920303 / 199920557 / 199920558) on February 25, 1999. The N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has approved impacts for the entire development (DWQ Project No. 99-0016). However, the applicant failed to obtain approval from the USACE for impacts associated with Phase 2 through 5. This was due to miscommunication between the various management groups that were responsible for the development prior the K. Hovnanian Homes involvement. The applicant is requesting approval for the entire development due to modifications made to the as built plans originally submitted for Phase 1 and the other phases.

Avoidance / Minization & Revised Impacts: January 13, 2006 Page 2 of 5 Site meetings were conducted with the DWQ on July 6 and 29, 2005 to discuss avoidance / minimization issues requested within their June 13, 2005 letter and within the June 14, 2005 meeting. The primary areas of concern included: Wetland Impacts W8 and W9 (within the area of Lots 181 to 186); W10 (within the location of Lot 69 (small portion only), 70 and 71); and W14 (the impacted area between Lots 8 & 10). W8 & W9 (Lots 181 to 186) - It was agreed upon during the meeting that attempting to restore the wetlands within impact areas W8 and W9 was not practical and that payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund to compensate for the loss of wetlands would be an acceptable alternative. As such, the applicant proposes to pay into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses (see "Mitigation" section below). W 10 (Lots 69 to 71) - Both the DWQ and USACE requested additional justification for the proposed wetland impacts in the location of Lots 69, 70 and 71. The applicant has agreed to avoid these impacts. This will result in the reduction of riparian wetland impacts by 0.146 acres. By avoiding these impacts, it will not be possible to build on Lots 70 and 71. W14 (Between Lots 8 &10) - DWQ evaluated this area during both the June 6's and 29?h site meetings. It was agreed that since no wetlands actually existed between Lots 8 and 10, because homes and residents not live in the location of the previous wetlands (Lots 7, 8 & 9), and because the area between Lots 8 and 10 was not suitable for restoration or creation, that restoration of these wetlands is not practical and payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses is the appropriate alternative. As such, the applicant agrees to pay into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses (see "Mitigation" section below).

Mitigation: Wetland & Stream Mitigation - The USACE received comments from the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) and U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS). Both agencies had concerns regarding the proposed 1:1 mitigation ratio to offset losses to waters. As such the applicant proposes 2:1 mitigation for the permanent impacts to streams and wetlands as recommended by the USACE. The applicant proposes payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund administered by the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) to satisfy this mitigation condition. Buffer Mitigation - The applicant requested that buffer mitigation not be required for this project since the impact areas were previously approved by the DWQ without mitigation. The DWQ denied this request during our June and July 2005 meetings arguing that not all of the conditions of the previous DWQ approval were met. As such the applicant has agreed to mitigate for the buffer impacts Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC Individual Permit - Additional Information January 13, 2006 Page 3 of 5 associated with the Heritage Pines Drive stream crossing. The remainder of the buffer impacts within the development are less than current buffer mitigation thresholds. The applicant proposes payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund administered by the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) to satisfy this mitigation condition. The new mitigation totals are provided in Table 2 below.

Stormwater: The DWQ and the USFWS and NCWRC requested the installation of additional stormwater management devices. The applicant's engineers, Hugh J. Gilleece & Associates, identified and labeled all existing and proposed stormwater outlets from the subdivision. Twenty-seven outlets were identified as depicted on Attachments 1 & 2 (see attached). The discharge (Q10), existing or proposed outlet device and pipe size are provided. (The engineer had to make certain assumptions regarding the flows for outlets in Phase 1.) The existing devices and discharge methods are provided as well as any proposed devices. Level Spreaders and/or scour holes will be provided for Outlets: E, F, O, P, Q, R, T, U and Y. Pocket Wetland will be provided for Outlet: H. Engineered Plunge Pool (or similar velocity dissipater) will be provided for Outlet: I. (This is the discharge from the adjacent school site. A lot of water comes through this outlet. There is not adequate room to construct a constructed wetland on the upstream end and any similar device constructed on the downstream end would require additional disturbance to the vegetated riparian areas and possibly stream. Dissipation of outlet velocities and energy from this outlet is a priority of Heritage Pines, LLC. The project engineer believes that this site may be suitable for an engineered plunge pool similar to work performed by Estes Design, Inc. (http://www.estesdesijzn.com/news.htm & http://www.estesdesign.com/Welcome%20to%20Estes%20Design%20Inc files/Research/Uncensored %20JAWRA%20Paper.pdf ). The project engineer will contact Mr. Chris Estes to discuss this potential option. Wet Detention Basin followed by Level SpreaderNegetated Filter will be provided for Outlet: S. (As requested by the DWQ, the applicant proposes to provide a wet detention basin that will discharge to a level spreader and vegetated filter for the majority of Phase 5 and a portion of Phase 4. The project engineer determined that it would be possible to treat a portion of Phase 4 to offset the portion of Phase 5 (including Outlet Y which drains Muir Brook Place and the lots north of Louis Stephens Drive) that Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC Individual Permit - Additional Information January 13, 2006 Page 4 of 5 could not be treated (beyond the use of a level spreader to provide diffuse flow).) See Attachment 3 for design details. Diffuse flow was determined to be achieved for existing Outlets: J, L, M and N. Louis Stephens Drive stormwater management for Outlets W and X will be provided within the Individual Permit submitted by the Town of Cary for the construction of Louis Stephens Drive. It is anticipated that level spreaders will be used to achieve diffuse flow. Outlets G and RR are culverts under the roads (Crystal Brook Lane and Heritage Pines Drive) used to bypass stream flows and do not receive additional stormwater runoff. Outlets A, B, C and D currently discharge directly to the larger, non-buffered pond (Sheet 3) located on the property. Outlet V is located within the existing Louis Stephens Road right of way and bypasses offsite stormwater and a small portion of Louis Stephens Road runoff. The outlet discharges to a non- buffered, non jurisdictional drainage way. Nitrogen Offset Payments will be provided to the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) for those outlets where diffuse flow or treatment cannot be achieved as described in the Water Quality Improvement Report (Attachment 3). It should be noted that Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to make this payment for the nitrogen loading associated with Outlet I, even though the majority of the stormwater comes from the adjacent school that was constructed at the same time as the early Phases of Heritage Pines and was not required to provide DWQ stormwater treatment. Outlet KK drains to yard inlets that connect to Outlet K, which is included within the nitrogen offset payments. Total EEP Nitrogen Offset Payment / Bu down $27 733.20 4. Preservation/Avoidance, Deed Notifications and Restrictive Covenents: As stated within the application, Heritage Pines, LLC proposes to avoid additional impacts to all retained wetlands, streams, ponds and buffers located on the property. Also, Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed (as stated within Item 1 above) to avoid impacts to wetlands on Lots 69, 70 and 71 (rendering Lots 70 and 71 as not buildable). It should also be noted that the stream drainage northwest of Rockport Ridge Way while originally determined to be subject to the Neuse River Buffers during the site evaluations performed in November 1997, is not subject to the current version of the Neuse River Buffer rules because the stream is not shown on either the USGS topographic quadrangle map or Wake County Soil Survey. However, Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to retain buffers and provide diffuse flow of stormwater (Outlets L, M and N) or offset nitrogen treatment (Outlet K) as described within Item 3 above for all stormwater outlets discharging to this drainage. Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to add an additional Article / Restrictive Covenant to the Declaration of Covenants for Heritage Pines that will ensure the preservation of all retained wetlands, streams, ponds and buffers located within the Common Areas of the development. A copy of draft language of this document is attached for your review and approval (see Attachment 5). Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to add the attached Deed Notification (seet Attachment 6) to any lots that have not been currently sold and that contain retained wetlands or buffers. (All streams and ponds are located within the common areas; most wetlands and buffers are located outside of lots. Lot 69 is an example of a lot that has not been sold that contains a small amount of wetlands.) Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC January 13, 2006 Individual Permit - Additional Information Page 5 of 5 5. Off-Site Alternatives: It is difficult to evaluate current off-site alternatives for this development in that the current impacts proposed by the new management of Heritage Pines, LLC (K. Hovnanian Homes) are associated with the completion of the development plan as approved in 1999. Site selection occurred in and around 1998 by the previous management of Heritage Pines, LLC (Washington Homes and US Homes). In its origination, Heritage Pines LLC was a joint venture between Washington Homes and US Homes. Subsequent to the formation of this joint venture, each of the participants was acquired by competing national homebuilders. Washington Homes was acquired by K. Hovnanian, while US Homes was acquired by Lennar. Along with these acquisitions came changes in project management teams. K. Hovnanian Homes (the current project manager) believe that they have done everything in their power since coming to the Raleigh/Durham market to work closely with the local, state and governmental municipalities to ensure that all ordinances are met. Site Selection Factors 1. Location a. Cary Address: seated in the heart of Cary, this location is ideal for residents residing in the area b. Proximity to commercial uses: shopping centers of all kinds are located within a very short distance c. Proximity to other residential areas: there were other similar residential areas near by to this project which instilled confidence in the project Utilities: all major utilities were accessible to this site Land position: The site topography was in good standing in terms of not needing to design for extraordinary cuts or fills. It was relatively flat with relatively few tributary drainages. Other properties of equivalent size within the Cary area have similar stream densities and topographic drainages. As such, one can assume that comparable impacts to jurisdictional waters would be required. CONCLUSION It is our understanding that this additional information will provide you all of the information required for you to continue the review of our permit application. Please contact us if you require any information beyond what has been provided in this response. We appreciate your review and comments.

It is south of Morrisville Road. The property drains to Crabtree Creek in the Neuse River basin. The project area is 96.747 acres. Discussion about retrofit measures The Division of Water Quality has proposed that we provide stonnwater treatment to Phase 5 of the project in accordance with the "Stormwater Best Management Practices" dated April 1999. Most of the Phase 5 infrastructure is already in place but no houses have been built at this time. Adjacent Phase 4 has houses built or being built on all lots. In Phase 4 DWQ has requested that we do the best we can to provide level spreaders at outlets. Storm drain pipes draining a large portion of Phase 4 and some of Louis Stephens Drive passes along the edge of Lot 181 which is in the edge of the Phase 5 area and has been identified as a possible location for a wet pond. A portion of Phase 5 lies on the far side of Louis Stephens Drive and cannot be drained back to the proposed pond. We are proposing to treat the portion of Phase 4 stormwater that drains through Lot 181 in lieu of treating the portion of Phase 5 that is on the other side of Louis Stephens Drive. The area of Phase 4 that we would be treating is 7.00 acres while the area of Phase 5 that we would not be treating is 6.65 acres. This would result in a slight increase in the area being treated while avoiding extreme costs in treating the Phase 5 area on the other side of Louis Stephens Drive. Retention Pond Calculations Proposed Pond # 3 There is proposed to be one retention pond on this project located at the intersection of Heritage Pines Drive and Franklin Hills Point. This is in the area that was originally shown to be Lots 181 and 182. Drainage Area (Pond # 3) Total drainage area = 443,673 s. f. = 10.19 ac. Impervious area = 177,021 s. f.

K. Nitrogen Removal Calculations The nitrogen removal calculations will be calculated by outlet. This will be done for those outlets where level spreaders or scour pools are not used. 4 The two primary factors governing nitrogen production are the area of runoff and the type of surface. The factors used in this analysis are as follows: Permanently protected undisturbed open space 0.601bs./ac./yr. Permanently protected managed open space 1.20 lbs/ac./yr. Impervious area 21.20 lbs./ac./yr. Outlet "I" Most of the drainage to this outlet is from the Green Hope High School property. this was diverted during the school construction from flowing to the stream at the back of the school property to a location that drained across the Heritage Pines property causing major flooding issues. This was diverted again a few years back by a pipe on the school property to the pipe system that has its outlet at 'T" The remaining portion of the flow in this system is generated on the Heritage Pines Subdivision. We will analyze these two areas separately for nitrogen calculations, then sum them together. This area will be split for analysis as shown below: From school property From Heritage Pines Total to Outlet "I" From school property Total Area Impervious Area 625,957 200,306 114,483 39,108 740,440 239,414 Total area = 625,957 s. f. = 14.37 ac.

Dear Mr. Tugwell, et. al.: On behalf of our client, Heritage Pines LLC, we are hereby providing additional information in response to comments received during the Public Notice period, our meetings on June 14, 2005, July 6, 2005, July 29, 2005, and various other correspondences with the reviewing agencies during the Fall/Winter of 2005. This additional information is an amendment to our existing Individual Permit application under review by both the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; Action ID No. 200520456) and DWQ (Project No. 05-0736) for the completion of the Heritage Pines development. As stated within the application, approval has been received for Phase 1 from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; Action ID 199920303 / 199920557 / 199920558) on February 25, 1999. The N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has approved impacts for the entire development (DWQ Project No. 99-0016). However, the applicant failed to obtain approval from the USACE for impacts associated with Phase 2 through 5. This was due to miscommunication between the various management groups that were responsible for the development prior the K. Hovnanian Homes involvement. The applicant is requesting approval for the entire development due to modifications made to the as built plans originally submitted for Phase 1 and the other phases.

Avoidance / Minization & Revised Impacts: January 13, 2006 Page 2 of 5 Site meetings were conducted with the DWQ on July 6 and 29, 2005 to discuss avoidance / minimization issues requested within their June 13, 2005 letter and within the June 14, 2005 meeting. The primary areas of concern included: Wetland Impacts W8 and W9 (within the area of Lots 181 to 186); W 10 (within the location of Lot 69 (small portion only), 70 and 71); and W 14 (the impacted area between Lots 8 & 10). W8 & W9 (Lots 181 to 186) - It was agreed upon during the meeting that attempting to restore the wetlands within impact areas W8 and W9 was not practical and that payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund to compensate for the loss of wetlands would be an acceptable alternative. As such, the applicant proposes to pay into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses (see "Mitigation" section below). W 10 (Lots 69 to 71) - Both the DWQ and USACE requested additional justification for the proposed wetland impacts in the location of Lots 69, 70 and 71. The applicant has agreed to avoid these impacts. This will result in the reduction of riparian wetland impacts by 0.146 acres. By avoiding these impacts, it will not be possible to build on Lots 70 and 71. W 14 (Between Lots 8 & 10) - DWQ evaluated this area during both the June Oh and 29`" site meetings. It was agreed that since no wetlands actually existed between Lots 8 and 10, because homes and residents not live in the location of the previous wetlands (Lots 7, 8 & 9), and because the area between Lots 8 and 10 was not suitable for restoration or creation, that restoration of these wetlands is not practical and payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses is the appropriate alternative. As such, the applicant agrees to pay into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses (see "Mitigation" section below).

Mitigation: Wetland & Stream Mitigation - The USACE received comments from the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) and U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS). Both agencies had concerns regarding the proposed 1:1 mitigation ratio to offset losses to waters. As such the applicant proposes 2:1 mitigation for the permanent impacts to streams and wetlands as recommended by the USACE. The applicant proposes payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund administered by the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) to satisfy this mitigation condition. Buffer Mitigation - The applicant requested that buffer mitigation not be required for this project since the impact areas were previously approved by the DWQ without mitigation. The DWQ denied this request during our June and July 2005 meetings arguing that not all of the conditions of the previous DWQ approval were met. As such the applicant has agreed to mitigate for the buffer impacts Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC Individual Permit - Additional Information January 13, 2006 Page 3 of 5 associated with the Heritage Pines Drive stream crossing. The remainder of the buffer impacts within the development are less than current buffer mitigation thresholds. The applicant proposes payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund administered by the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) to satisfy this mitigation condition. The new mitigation totals are provided in Table 2 below.

Stormwater: The DWQ and the USFWS and NCWRC requested the installation of additional stormwater management devices. The applicant's engineers, Hugh J. Gilleece & Associates, identified and labeled all existing and proposed stormwater outlets from the subdivision. Twenty-seven outlets were identified as depicted on Attachments 1 & 2 (see attached). The discharge (Q10), existing or proposed outlet device and pipe size are provided. (The engineer had to make certain assumptions regarding the flows for outlets in Phase 1.) The existing devices and discharge methods are provided as well as any proposed devices. Level Spreaders and/or scour holes will be provided for Outlets: E, F, O, P, Q, R, T, U and Y. Pocket Wetland will be provided for Outlet: H. Engineered Plunge Pool (or similar velocity dissipater) will be provided for Outlet: I. (This is the discharge from the adjacent school site. A lot of water comes through this outlet. There is not adequate room to construct a constructed wetland on the upstream end and any similar device constructed on the downstream end would require additional disturbance to the vegetated riparian areas and possibly stream. Dissipation of outlet velocities and energy from this outlet is a priority of Heritage Pines, LLC. The project engineer believes that this site may be suitable for an engineered plunge pool similar to work performed by Estes Design, Inc. (http://www.estesdesign.com/news.htm & http://www.estesdesign.com/Welcome%20to%20Estes%20Design%20Inc files/Research/Uncensored %20JAWRA%20Paper.Rdf ). The project engineer will contact Mr. Chris Estes to discuss this potential option. Wet Detention Basin followed by Level SpreaderNegetated Filter will be provided for Outlet: S. (As requested by the DWQ, the applicant proposes to provide a wet detention basin that will discharge to a level spreader and vegetated filter for the majority of Phase 5 and a portion of Phase 4. The project engineer determined that it would be possible to treat a portion of Phase 4 to offset the portion of Phase 5 (including Outlet Y which drains Muir Brook Place and the lots north of Louis Stephens Drive) that Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC Individual Permit -Additional Information January 13, 2006 Page 4 of 5 could not be treated (beyond the use of a level spreader to provide diffuse flow).) See Attachment 3 for design details. Diffuse flow was determined to be achieved for existing Outlets: J, L, M and N Louis Stephens Drive stormwater management for Outlets W and X will be provided within the Individual Permit submitted by the Town of Cary for the construction of Louis Stephens Drive. It is anticipated that level spreaders will be used to achieve diffuse flow. Outlets G and RR are culverts under the roads (Crystal Brook Lane and Heritage Pines Drive) used to bypass stream flows and do not receive additional stormwater runoff. Outlets A, B, C and D currently discharge directly to the larger, non-buffered pond (Sheet 3) located on the property. Outlet V is located within the existing Louis Stephens Road right of way and bypasses offsite stormwater and a small portion of Louis Stephens Road runoff. The outlet discharges to a non- buffered, non jurisdictional drainage way. Nitrogen Offset Payments will be provided to the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) for those outlets where diffuse flow or treatment cannot be achieved as described in the Water Quality Improvement Report (Attachment 3). It should be noted that Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to make this payment for the nitrogen loading associated with Outlet I, even though the majority of the stormwater comes from the adjacent school that was constructed at the same time as the early Phases of Heritage Pines and was not required to provide DWQ stormwater treatment. Outlet KK drains to yard inlets that connect to Outlet K, which is included within the nitrogen offset payments. Total EEP Nitrogen Offset Payment / Bu down $27 733.20 4. Preservation/Avoidance, Deed Notifications and Restrictive Covenents: As stated within the application, Heritage Pines, LLC proposes to avoid additional impacts to all retained wetlands, streams, ponds and buffers located on the property. Also, Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed (as stated within Item 1 above) to avoid impacts to wetlands on Lots 69, 70 and 71 (rendering Lots 70 and 71 as not buildable). It should also be noted that the stream drainage northwest of Rockport Ridge Way while originally determined to be subject to the Neuse River Buffers during the site evaluations performed in November 1997, is not subject to the current version of the Neuse River Buffer rules because the stream is not shown on either the USGS topographic quadrangle map or Wake County Soil Survey. However, Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to retain buffers and provide diffuse flow of stormwater (Outlets L, M and N) or offset nitrogen treatment (Outlet K) as described within Item 3 above for all stormwater outlets discharging to this drainage. Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to add an additional Article / Restrictive Covenant to the Declaration of Covenants for Heritage Pines that will ensure the preservation of all retained wetlands, streams, ponds and buffers located within the Common Areas of the development. A copy of draft language of this document is attached for your review and approval (see Attachment 5). Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to add the attached Deed Notification (seet Attachment 6) to any lots that have not been currently sold and that contain retained wetlands or buffers. (All streams and ponds are located within the common areas; most wetlands and buffers are located outside of lots. Lot 69 is an example of a lot that has not been sold that contains a small amount of wetlands.) Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC January 13, 2006 Individual Permit - Additional Information Page 5 of 5 5. Off-Site Alternatives: It is difficult to evaluate current off-site alternatives for this development in that the current impacts proposed by the new management of Heritage Pines, LLC (K. Hovnanian Homes) are associated with the completion of the development plan as approved in 1999. Site selection occurred in and around 1998 by the previous management of Heritage Pines, LLC (Washington Homes and US Homes). In its origination, Heritage Pines LLC was a joint venture between Washington Homes and US Homes. Subsequent to the formation of this joint venture, each of the participants was acquired by competing national homebuilders. Washington Homes was acquired by K. Hovnanian, while US Homes was acquired by Lennar. Along with these acquisitions came changes in project management teams. K. Hovnanian Homes (the current project manager) believe that they have done everything in their power since coming to the Raleigh/Durham market to work closely with the local, state and governmental municipalities to ensure that all ordinances are met. Site Selection Factors 1. Location a. Cary Address: seated in the heart of Cary, this location is ideal for residents residing in the area b. Proximity to commercial uses: shopping centers of all kinds are located within a very short distance c. Proximity to other residential areas: there were other similar residential areas near by to this project which instilled confidence in the project 2. Utilities: all major utilities were accessible to this site 3. Land position: The site topography was in good standing in terms of not needing to design for extraordinary cuts or fills. It was relatively flat with relatively few tributary drainages. Other properties of equivalent size within the Cary area have similar stream densities and topographic drainages. As such, one can assume that comparable impacts to jurisdictional waters would be required. CONCLUSION It is our understanding that this additional information will provide you all of the information required for you to continue the review of our permit application. Please contact us if you require any information beyond what has been provided in this response. We appreciate your review and comments.

It is south of Morrisville Road. The property drains to Crabtree Creek in the Neuse River basin. The project area is 96.747 acres. Discussion about retrofit measures The Division of Water Quality has proposed that we provide stormwater treatment to Phase 5 of the project in accordance with the "Stormwater Best Management Practices" dated April 1999. Most of the Phase 5 infrastructure is already in place but no houses have been built at this time. Adjacent Phase 4 has houses built or being built on all lots. In Phase 4 DWQ has requested that we do the best we can to provide level spreaders at outlets. Storm drain pipes draining a large portion of Phase 4 and some of Louis Stephens Drive passes along the edge of Lot 181 which is in the edge of the Phase 5 area and has been identified as a possible location for a wet pond. A portion of Phase 5 lies on the far side of Louis Stephens Drive and cannot be drained back to the proposed pond. We are proposing to treat the portion of Phase 4 stormwater that drains through Lot 181 in lieu of treating the portion of Phase 5 that is on the other side of Louis Stephens Drive. The area of Phase 4 that we would be treating is 7.00 acres while the area of Phase 5 that we would not be treating is 6.65 acres. This would result in a slight increase in the area being treated while avoiding extreme costs in treating the Phase 5 area on the other side of Louis Stephens Drive. Retention Pond Calculations Proposed Pond # 3 There is proposed to be one retention pond on this project located at the intersection of Heritage Pines Drive and Franklin Hills Point. This is in the area that was originally shown to be Lots 181 and 182. Drainage Area (Pond # 3) Total drainage area = 443,673 s. f. = 10.19 ac. Impervious area = 177,021 s. f.

Nitrogen Removal Calculations The nitrogen removal calculations will be calculated by outlet. This will be done for those outlets where level spreaders or scour pools are not used. 4 The two primary factors governing nitrogen production are the area of runoff and the type of surface. The factors used in this analysis are as follows: Permanently protected undisturbed open space 0.60 lbs./ac./yr. Permanently protected managed open space 1.20 lbs/ac./yr. Impervious area 21.20 lbs./ac./yr. Outlet "I" Most of the drainage to this outlet is from the Green Hope High School property. this was diverted during the school construction from flowing to the stream at the back of the school property to a location that drained across the Heritage Pines property causing major flooding issues. This was diverted again a few years back by a pipe on the school property to the pipe system that has its outlet at 'T" The remaining portion of the flow in this system is generated on the Heritage Pines Subdivision. We will analyze these two areas separately for nitrogen calculations, then sum them together. This area will be split for analysis as shown below: Total Area Impervious Area From school property 625,957 200,306 From Heritage Pines 114,483 39,108 Total to Outlet "I" 740,440 239,414 From school property Total area = 625,957 s. f. = 14.37 ac.

Dear Mr. Tugwell, et al.: On behalf of our client, Heritage Pines LLC, we are hereby providing additional information in response to comments received during the Public Notice period, our meetings on June 14, 2005, July 6, 2005, July 29, 2005, and various other correspondences with the reviewing agencies during the Fall/Winter of 2005. This additional information is an amendment to our existing Individual Permit application under review by both the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; Action ID No. 200520456) and DWQ (Project No. 05-0736) for the completion of the Heritage Pines development. As stated within the application, approval has been received for Phase 1 from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; Action ID 199920303 / 199920557 / 199920558) on February 25, 1999. The N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has approved impacts for the entire development (DWQ Project No. 99-0016). However, the applicant failed to obtain approval from the USACE for impacts associated with Phase 2 through 5. This was due to miscommunication between the various management groups that were responsible for the development prior the K. Hovnanian Homes involvement. The applicant is requesting approval for the entire development due to modifications made to the as built plans originally submitted for Phase 1 and the other phases.

Avoidance / Minization & Revised Impacts: Site meetings were conducted with the DWQ on July 6 and 29, 2005 to discuss avoidance / minimization issues requested within their June 13, 2005 letter and within the June 14, 2005 meeting. The primary areas of concern included: Wetland Impacts W8 and W9 (within the area of Lots 181 to 186); W 10 (within the location of Lot 69 (small portion only), 70 and 71); and W14 (the impacted area between Lots 8 & 10). W8 & W9 (Lots 181 to 186) - It was agreed upon during the meeting that attempting to restore the wetlands within impact areas W8 and W9 was not practical and that payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund to compensate for the loss of wetlands would be an acceptable alternative. As such, the applicant proposes to pay into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses (see "Mitigation" section below). W10 (Lots 69 to 71) - Both the DWQ and USACE requested additional justification for the proposed wetland impacts in the location of Lots 69, 70 and 71. The applicant has agreed to avoid these impacts. This will result in the reduction of riparian wetland impacts by 0.146 acres. By avoiding these impacts, it will not be possible to build on Lots 70 and 71. W14 (Between Lots 8 &10) - DWQ evaluated this area during both the June 6t' and 29's site meetings. It was agreed that since no wetlands actually existed between Lots 8 and 10, because homes and residents not live in the location of the previous wetlands (Lots 7, 8 & 9), and because the area between Lots 8 and 10 was not suitable for restoration or creation, that restoration of these wetlands is not practical and payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses is the appropriate alternative. As such, the applicant agrees to pay into the Wetlands Restoration Fund at a 2:1 ratio to offset these losses (see "Mitigation" section below).

Mitigation: Wetland & Stream Mitigation - The USACE received comments from the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) and U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service (USFWS). Both agencies had concerns regarding the proposed 1:1 mitigation ratio to offset losses to waters. As such the applicant proposes 2:1 mitigation for the permanent impacts to streams and wetlands as recommended by the USACE. The applicant proposes payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund administered by the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) to satisfy this mitigation condition. Buffer Mitigation - The applicant requested that buffer mitigation not be required for this project since the impact areas were previously approved by the DWQ without mitigation. The DWQ denied this request during our June and July 2005 meetings arguing that not all of the conditions of the previous DWQ approval were met. As such the applicant has agreed to mitigate for the buffer impacts Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC Individual Permit-Additional Information January 13, 2006 Page 3 of 5 associated with the Heritage Pines Drive stream crossing. The remainder of the buffer impacts within the development are less than current buffer mitigation thresholds. The applicant proposes payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund administered by the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) to satisfy this mitigation condition. The new mitigation totals are provided in Table 2 below.

Stormwater: The DWQ and the USFWS and NCWRC requested the installation of additional stormwater management devices. The applicant's engineers, Hugh J. Gilleece & Associates, identified and labeled all existing and proposed stormwater outlets from the subdivision. Twenty-seven outlets were identified as depicted on Attachments 1 & 2 (see attached). The discharge (Q10), existing or proposed outlet device and pipe size are provided. (The engineer had to make certain assumptions regarding the flows for outlets in Phase 1.) The existing devices and discharge methods are provided as well as any proposed devices. Level Spreaders and/or scour holes will be provided for Outlets: E, F, O, P, Q, R, T, U and Y. Pocket Wetland will be provided for Outlet: H. Engineered Plunge Pool (or similar velocity dissipater) will be provided for Outlet: I. (This is the discharge from the adjacent school site. A lot of water comes through this outlet. There is not adequate room to construct a constructed wetland on the upstream end and any similar device constructed on the downstream end would require additional disturbance to the vegetated riparian areas and possibly stream. Dissipation of outlet velocities and energy from this outlet is a priority of Heritage Pines, LLC. The project engineer believes that this site may be suitable for an engineered plunge pool similar to work performed by Estes Design, Inc. (http://www.estesdesign.com/news.htm & http://www.estesdesign&Qm!Welcome%20to%20Estes%20Design%20Inc files/Research/Uncensored %20JAWRA%20Paper.pdf ). The project engineer will contact Mr. Chris Estes to discuss this potential option. Wet Detention Basin followed by Level SpreaderNegetated Filter will be provided for Outlet: S. (As requested by the DWQ, the applicant proposes to provide a wet detention basin that will discharge to a level spreader and vegetated filter for the majority of Phase 5 and a portion of Phase 4. The project engineer determined that it would be possible to treat a portion of Phase 4 to offset the portion of Phase 5 (including Outlet Y which drains Muir Brook Place and the lots north of Louis Stephens Drive) that Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC January 13, 2006 Individual Permit - Additional Information Page 4 of 5 could not be treated (beyond the use of a level spreader to provide diffuse flow).) See Attachment 3 for design details. Diffuse flow was determined to be achieved for existing Outlets: J, L, M and N. Louis Stephens Drive stormwater management for Outlets W and X will be provided within the Individual Permit submitted by the Town of Cary for the construction of Louis Stephens Drive. It is anticipated that level spreaders will be used to achieve diffuse flow. Outlets G and RR are culverts under the roads (Crystal Brook Lane and Heritage Pines Drive) used to bypass stream flows and do not receive additional stormwater runoff. Outlets A, B, C and D currently discharge directly to the larger, non-buffered pond (Sheet 3) located on the property. Outlet V is located within the existing Louis Stephens Road right of way and bypasses offsite stormwater and a small portion of Louis Stephens Road runoff. The outlet discharges to a non- buffered, non jurisdictional drainage way. Nitrogen Offset Payments will be provided to the N.C. Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) for those outlets where diffuse flow or treatment cannot be achieved as described in the Water Quality Improvement Report (Attachment 3). It should be noted that Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to make this payment for the nitrogen loading associated with Outlet I, even though the majority of the stormwater comes from the adjacent school that was constructed at the same time as the early Phases of Heritage Pines and was not required to provide DWQ stormwater treatment. Outlet KK drains to yard inlets that connect to Outlet K, which is included within the nitrogen offset payments. Total EEP Nitrogen Offset Payment / Bu down $27 733.20 4. Preservation/Avoidance, Deed Notifications and Restrictive Covenents: As stated within the application, Heritage Pines, LLC proposes to avoid additional impacts to all retained wetlands, streams, ponds and buffers located on the property. Also, Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed (as stated within Item 1 above) to avoid impacts to wetlands on Lots 69, 70 and 71 (rendering Lots 70 and 71 as not buildable). It should also be noted that the stream drainage northwest of Rockport Ridge Way while originally determined to be subject to the Neuse River Buffers during the site evaluations performed in November 1997, is not subject to the current version of the Neuse River Buffer rules because the stream is not shown on either the USGS topographic quadrangle map or Wake County Soil Survey. However, Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to retain buffers and provide diffuse flow of stormwater (Outlets L, M and N) or offset nitrogen treatment (Outlet K) as described within Item 3 above for all stormwater outlets discharging to this drainage. Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to add an additional Article / Restrictive Covenant to the Declaration of Covenants for Heritage Pines that will ensure the preservation of all retained wetlands, streams, ponds and buffers located within the Common Areas of the development. A copy of draft language of this document is attached for your review and approval (see Attachment 5). Heritage Pines, LLC has agreed to add the attached Deed Notification (seet Attachment 6) to any lots that have not been currently sold and that contain retained wetlands or buffers. (All streams and ponds are located within the common areas; most wetlands and buffers are located outside of lots. Lot 69 is an example of a lot that has not been sold that contains a small amount of wetlands.) Heritage Pines Subdivision, Cary, NC Individual Permit - Additional Information January 13, 2006 Page 5 of 5 5. Off-Site Alternatives: It is difficult to evaluate current off-site alternatives for this development in that the current impacts proposed by the new management of Heritage Pines, LLC (K. Hovnanian Homes) are associated with the completion of the development plan as approved in 1999. Site selection occurred in and around 1998 by the previous management of Heritage Pines, LLC (Washington Homes and US Homes). In its origination, Heritage Pines LLC was a joint venture between Washington Homes and US Homes. Subsequent to the formation of this joint venture, each of the participants was acquired by competing national homebuilders. Washington Homes was acquired by K. Hovnanian, while US Homes was acquired by Lennar. Along with these acquisitions came changes in project management teams. K. Hovnanian Homes (the current project manager) believe that they have done everything in their power since coming to the Raleigh/Durham market to work closely with the local, state and governmental municipalities to ensure that all ordinances are met. Site Selection Factors 1. Location a. Cary Address: seated in the heart of Cary, this location is ideal for residents residing in the area b. Proximity to commercial uses: shopping centers of all kinds are located within a very short distance c. Proximity to other residential areas: there were other similar residential areas near by to this project which instilled confidence in the project 2. Utilities: all major utilities were accessible to this site 3. Land position: The site topography was in good standing in terms of not needing to design for extraordinary cuts or fills. It was relatively flat with relatively few tributary drainages. Other properties of equivalent size within the Cary area have similar stream densities and topographic drainages. As such, one can assume that comparable impacts to jurisdictional waters would be required. CONCLUSION It is our understanding that this additional information will provide you all of the information required for you to continue the review of our permit application.

It is south of Morrisville Road. The property drains to Crabtree Creek in the Neuse River basin. The project area is 96.747 acres. Discussion about retrofit measures The Division of Water Quality has proposed that we provide stormwater treatment to Phase 5 of the project in accordance with the "Stormwater Best Management Practices" dated April 1999. Most of the Phase 5 infrastructure is already in place but no houses have been built at this time. Adjacent Phase 4 has houses built or being built on all lots. In Phase 4 DWQ has requested that we do the best we can to provide level spreaders at outlets. Storm drain pipes draining a large portion of Phase 4 and some of Louis Stephens Drive passes along the edge of Lot 181 which is in the edge of the Phase 5 area and has been identified as a possible location for a wet pond. A portion of Phase 5 lies on the far side of Louis Stephens Drive and cannot be drained back to the proposed pond. We are proposing to treat the portion of Phase 4 stormwater that drains through Lot 181 in lieu of treating the portion of Phase 5 that is on the other side of Louis Stephens Drive. The area of Phase 4 that we would be treating is 7.00 acres while the area of Phase .5 that we would not be treating is 6.65 acres. This would result in a slight increase in the area being treated while avoiding extreme costs in treating the Phase 5 area on the other side of Louis Stephens Drive. Retention Pond Calculations Proposed Pond # 3 There is proposed to be one retention pond on this project located at the intersection of Heritage Pines Drive and Franklin Hills Point. This is in the area that was originally shown to be Lots 181 and 182. Drainage Area (Pond # 3) Total drainage area = 443,673 s. f. = 10.19 ac. Impervious area = 177,021 s. f.

K. Nitrogen Removal Calculations The nitrogen removal calculations will be calculated by outlet. This will be done for those outlets where level spreaders or scour pools are not used. 4 The two primary factors governing nitrogen production are the area of runoff and the type of surface. The factors used in this analysis are as follows: Permanently protected undisturbed open space 0.60 lbs./ac./yr. Permanently protected managed open space 1.20 Ibs/ac./yr. Impervious area 21.20 lbs./ac./yr. Outlet "I" Most of the drainage to this outlet is from the Green Hope High School property. this was diverted during the school construction from flowing to the stream at the back of the school property to a location that drained across the Heritage Pines property causing major flooding issues. This was diverted again a few years back by a pipe on the school property to the pipe system that has its outlet at 'T" The remaining portion of the flow in this system is generated on the Heritage Pines Subdivision. We will analyze these two areas separately for nitrogen calculations, then sum them together. This area will be split for analysis as shown below: Total Area Impervious Area From school property 625,957 200,306 From Heritage Pines 114,483 39,108 Total to Outlet "I" 740,440 239,414 From school property Total area = 625,957 s. f. = 14.37 ac.

This Public Notice and all attached plans are also available on the Wilmington District Web Site at www.saw.usace.anny.mil/wetlands Applicant: AGENT (if applicable): Authority Heritage Pines, LLC Attn: Mr. Mark Miller 3500 Regency Parkway Cary, NC 27511 k ?c?Ron11 p MAY 1 2 2005 Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc. DENR-WATER QUAUTY Attn: Mr. Bob Zarzecki WEUMMOST MTERBWO 11010 Raven Ridge Road Raleigh, North Carolina 27614 The Corps will evaluate this application and a decide whether to issue, conditionally issue, or deny the proposed work pursuant to the applicable procedures of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Location The project, Heritage Pines Residential Subdivision, is approximately 100 acres in size and is located to the east of Carpenter Upchurch Road (SR 1617), approximately 0.75 mile south of Morrisville-Carpenter Road (SR 3014), in Cary, Wake County, North Carolina. Coordinates (in decimal degrees) for the site are 35.8092 ° North, 78.`8668-°- West. The site contains several unnamed tributaries of Crabtree Creek, and adjacent wetlands, in the Neuse River Basin (8-Digit Cataloging Unit 03020201). Existing Site Conditions The project site, which is located in a suburban area west of Raleigh, has been under development for several years. Currently, all portions of the property have either been developed as single-family residential units, or they are under development. Phases 1 T through 3 have already been constructed, phase 4 is nearing completion, and phase 5 is partially complete. The site contains several tributaries to Crabtree Creek, along with adjacent wetlands and hvo amenity ponds that were formerly farm ponds. Prior to development, the site was abandoned agricultural fields and forestland. Applicant's Stated Purpose As stated by the applicant, the purpose of the project is to provide an active adult country club residential community, marketed to adults 55 years of age and older. The community provides a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts, and paved walking trails and sidewalks. Additional housing for the growing Cary area. The development contains single-family residences with lots ranging from 0.15 to 0.2 acres. Project Description The permit request for this project is an after-the-fact application. The majority of impacts associated with this permit application have already been completed. This public notice does not imply, on the part of the Corps of Engineers or other agencies, either a favorable or unfavorable opinion of the work performed. This notice is issued to solicit comments regarding the factors on which a final decision will be based. The applicant has agreed to place the project on hold, pending the resolution of the permit application. Further enforcement action, including possible legal action, has been suspended pending the outcome of this consideration. The project is a residential development that will include construction of single-family units, a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts, and walking trails. In all, there are 5 phases of the subdivision. Continued development of the site will require extensive clearing, grading, excavation, and fill necessary for the construction of homes, lots, roads, stormwater facilities, and infrastructure. Heavy equipment, including graders, pan scrapers, excavators, bull dozers, etc. will be used for the construction of the project. Proposed impacts to stream channels resulting from the placement of fill material, culverts, and/or riprap totals 337 linear feet (0.072 acre) of perennial stream channel, including 40 linear feet of temporary impact. Proposed impacts to wetlands resulting from the placement of fill material for roads, building pads, pond dams, and utility lines totals 2.407 acres of wetland, including 0.192 acre of temporary impact. Proposed impacts to open waters resulting from modification of the existing farms ponds totals 1.858 acres. The total impact to all waters of the U.S. is 4.337 acres. Plans included with this notice that show the overall proposed site layout as well as the details for impacted waters. The applicant proposes mitigation for impacts to stream channels and wetlands associated with the project at a 1:1 ratio by providing payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program for the restoration of 297 linear feet of stream channel, 1.705 acre of riparian wetlands, and 0.702 acre of non-riparian wetlands. No mitigation for impacts to open waters has been proposed. 2 Other Required Authorizations This notice and all applicable application materials are being forwarded to the appropriate State agencies for review. The Corps will generally not make a final permit decision until the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500). The receipt of the application and this public notice in the NCDWQ Central Office in Raleigh serves as application to the NCDWQ for certification. A waiver will be deemed to occur if the NCDWQ fails to act on this request for certification within sixty days of the date of the receipt of this notice in the NCDWQ Central Office. Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be reviewed at the NCDWQ Central Office, 401 Oversight and Express Permits Unit, 2321 Crabtree Boulevard, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604-2260.

HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION BLOCK SHEETS BLOCK 18 - Nature of Activity The project involves the development of the Heritage Pines residential subdivision located on Carpenter-Upchurch Road in Cary, NC. As described further in Block 23, Phases 1 through 3 of the community have already been constructed, Phase 4 is near completion and Phase 5 is partially completed. Approval has been received for Phase 1 from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; Action ID 199920303 / 199920557 / 199920558). The N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has approved impacts for the entire development (DWQ Project No. 99-0016). However, the approval from the USACE has not been given for Phase 2 through 5. The applicant is requesting approval for the entire development due to modifications made to the as built plans originally submitted for Phase 1 and the other phases. Please see Block 23 for additional information. The activities within Waters of the U.S. that have already occurred and/or otherwise requested within this application include the discharge of fill into wetlands, streams and other waters for the development of roads, utilities, recreational amenities (including the clubhouse, tennis courts, ponds, etc.) and residential lots. The only activities that have not yet occurred are the filling of wetlands for the development of Lots 70 and 71 (see Sheet 6A of the attached Impact Maps). These activities and the dimension of the structures are illustrated in the attached Impact Maps. The materials used included earthen fill to construct the base for the roads and residential lots. The roads have been constructed to local and N.C. Department of Transportation (DOT) standards. The roads have been paved and use curb and gutter to manage stormwater runoff. Paving materials include asphalt and concrete. Curb and gutter materials include concrete, metal drop inlets, reinforced concrete pipe and corrugated metal pipe. The stream and wetland crossing for Heritage Pines Drive was constructed using twin pre-cast concrete arch culverts (see Site Photos). The wetland crossing for Crystal Brook Lane used a single corrugated metal pipe (see Site Photos). The residential lots include both stick built single-family dwellings and townhome structures on concrete slabs with concrete driveways and walks. The materials used for the clubhouse and pool include a stick built clubhouse with an asphalt, curb and gutter parking lot and in ground concrete swimming pool. Other materials used in the tennis courts and walking trails include asphalt and treated timber retaining walls. Some slopes along the pond and adjacent to these structures have been stabilized with rock (rip-rap). See Site Photos for photographs of the clubhouse and tennis court adjacent to the main pond. Stormwater conveyances are constructed of reinforced concrete pipe, corrugated metal pipe and metal drop inlets. The typical stormwater outlet structure includes a concrete flared end, rock dissipater and possible sediment basin (see Site Photos for examples). HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION BLOCK SHEETS BLOCK 19 - Project Purpose Project Purpose: As stated on their website (see http://www.heritagepinesnc.com/ ), Heritage Pines is a unique active adult country club community marketed to adults 55 years of age or older. Independent residential communities, such as Heritage Pines, are for seniors desiring a leisurely, hassle-free lifestyle. This community provides a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts and paved walking trails and sidewalks. Residences range from approximately 1,500 sf to 2,900 sf and use low maintenance materials. The yards are also low maintenance in that they are a manageable size (single-family lot sizes range between approximately 0.15 and 0.2 acres) and landscaping services are available. This all provides for a close-knit community were the residents are able to easily walk to their neighbors and enjoy a safe, healthy and active lifestyle. The project purpose is to complete the development of such a community at the site. Project Need: Active adult living communities, such as Heritage Pines, are in great demand by seniors within Cary, Wake County and North Carolina. Resources for Seniors, Inc. (see http://www.resourcesforseniors.com/retcom.pdf ) lists only two active adult living communities within their retirement community list (updated April 2004) for Wake County. They include Troon at Kildaire and Heritage Pines. The U.S. Administration on Aging report A Profile of Older Americans: 2002 (see http://assets.aa!p.org/rgcenter/general/Trofile 2002.pdf ) states; that by 2030 the older population (persons 65 years or older) will more than double to more than 70 million people nation wide; North Carolina ranked within the top 20 states for percent increase in population 65+ from 1990 to 2000. Heritage Pines provides the type of community needed by this increasing older population. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION BLOCK SHEETS BLOCK 20 - Reasons for Discharge An interconnected street, sidewalk and walking path community design is essential in creating an active adult living community such as Heritage Pines. The need to cross over streams and buffers with roads is many times inevitable in developing such a design. However, Heritage Pines was designed to limit the number of stream and buffer crossings with roads to only two crossings. The main crossing (Heritage Pines Drive) was required to connect the western portion of the community (Phase 1, 2 & 3) to the eastern portion of the community (Phases 4 & 5). The stream bisects the property from North to South and as such there is no alternative than to cross it to connect the western and eastern portions of the property. Heritage Pines Drive also acts as a connection between Carpenter-Upchurch Road and Louis Stephens Drive. This allows for at least two points of access to the site from two separate road systems. This is essential for alleviating traffic congestion on a single road and provides for multiple points of ingress or egress in case of an emergency. This is especially important in a senior community such as Heritage Pines. The other road crossing (Crystal Brook Lane) of a stream occurred below the main pond. Without this crossing Knotts Valley Lane would have only had a single connect to Heritage Pines Drive (above the main pond). This crossing provides a second point of ingress or egress for the residents of Knotts Valley Lane. The design of this crossing was such that it attempted to minimize impacts to wetlands by crossing a section of the drainage that was primarily stream channel rather than stream channel and wetlands. The other road crossings of wetlands and waters located within the development were required to provided access to the entire property and an interconnected street and sidewalk system within the community as described above. The discharges to open waters associated with the two ponds located within the development were required to provide buildable areas for the clubhouse, tennis courts, walking paths, and residential homes. Discharges were also required for modifications made to the dam and outlet structures. Discharges to wetlands and channels to construct buildable areas for residential lots occurred and are proposed at the site. Maximizing the number of homes within the community while still avoided as much as practicable impacts to the major stream, wetland and buffer drainages on the site was important to supply the needed homes for Wake County's older population as described in Block 19 - Proposed Project Purpose.

Existing Conditions: The project involves the development of the Heritage Pines residential subdivision located on Carpenter-Upchurch Road in Cary, NC. Phases 1 through 3 of the community have already been constructed, homes and properties have been sold, residents are living in the homes, and a homeowners association has been formed (Heritage Pines Community Association, Inc.). Phase 4 is near completion and the majority of the lots that have impacted jurisdictional waters have homes constructed on them and residents within them. Phase 5 is partially completed, rough grading and utility infrastructure has been completed. However, the roads and sidewalks have not yet been paved. The applicant has decided to put all work on hold within the area of Lots 175 to 195 southwest of Louis Stephens Drive until future notice. The applicant does intend to complete work within the remainder of Phase 5 including Louis Stephens Drive and the lots northeast of Louis Stephens Drive (all located outside of areas that previously contained jurisdictional waters). Dredged or Fill Material Already Discharged: The activities within Waters of the U.S. that have already occurred include the discharge of fill into wetlands, streams and other waters for the development of roads, utilities, recreational amenities (including the clubhouse, tennis courts, ponds, etc.) and residential lots. The only activities that have not yet occurred are the filling of wetlands for the development of Lots 70 and 71 (see Sheet 6A of the attached Impact Maps). These activities and the dimension of the structures are illustrated in the attached Impact Maps. Details on the areas of impact can be found in the tables provided in Blocks 21 & 22.

On 7/9/97, Todd Tugwell of the USACE ' conducted an on site review and approval of the delineation. The delineation map may have been signed by the USACE. However, S&EC does not have a copy of the signed delineation map in our files. This delineation map was used in all previous applications ' and was also used in this after-the-fact application. S&EC Letter re: DWQ Buffer Determination (see attached) - The attached letter describes the Neuse River Buffer determinations performed by Mr. Danny Smith of the DWQ on November 5, 1997. S&EC does not have a copy of a DWQ on-site determination report for Mr. Smith's determinations. Please note that this letter does not address the two ponds or the channel located within the existing Phase 5 area and east of the main stream. Based on other DWQ correspondences provided within this application (including the final approval), it seems clear that these areas were determined to be exempt from the Neuse River Buffer. There is a pond shown in the southeast corner of the property on the USGS topographic map. We do not have confirmation that this pond was ever exempted by the DWQ. However, based on DWQ correspondence and approvals, it seems clear that that this pond was determined to be exempt from the Neuse Buffer Rule. Also, the wetland delineation does not indicate a pond in this location and if you examine the aerial photograph of the Wake County Soil Survey you will also see that this was a field and obviously a USGS mapping error. PCN Submitted by Applicant (Not S&EC) - S&EC did not submit the original application for this development. The DWQ was unable to locate the file at the time that this application was prepared and as such we cannot provide copies of the application or additional information that may exist within the file. Based on additional correspondences provided within this application, it appears that the original application was submitted to the DWQ on December 20, 1999 by Mr. Steve Prusik of SiteScapes Design Group, Inc. on behalf of the owner at the time, Mr. Michael Edwards. S&EC has HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PRIOR PROJECT HISTORY obtained a paper copy of the original impact map that was submitted along with the December 20, 1999 application. We do not have a digital or 8'/z x I 1 copy of this map and as such it was not submitted along with this application. However, a copy has been given to the DWQ and additional copies can be provided at your request. DWQ On Hold Letter (see attached) - The DWQ requested additional information from the applicant and Mr. Prusik in a letter dated February 22, 1999. USACE Approval (see attached) - The USACE approved the December 1998 application in a letter to the applicant dated February 25, 1999. This approval was only for Phase I of the development. This letter was mistakenly sent to my attention, most likely because of our initial involvement with the project. The authorized agent title above the attention line was "blacked-out" on the copy within our file. Although we do not have confirmation of this in the file, I assume that this mistake was corrected and that the letter was sent to the Mr. Prusik based on Mr. Prusik's letter to DWQ dated July 8, 1999. SiteScapes Letter to DWQ re: Project Summary (see attached) - Mr. Prusik sent a letter dated July 8, 1999 to DWQ summarizing the project and a site meeting with Mr. John Dorney of DWQ on July 6, 1999. This letter states that a revised master plan was prepared and delivered to DWQ on February 26`h, 1999 by Hugh J. Gilleece & Associates (the project engineer) indicating wetland and buffer impacts for the entire site. Notice of Violation from DWQ Raleigh Regional Office (see attached) - A notice of violation letter was issued to Mr. Edwards on July 21, 1999 from the DWQ Raleigh Regional Office. SiteScapes Letter to DWQ re: Restoration Plan (see attached) - Mr. Prusik sent a letter dated August 4, 1999 to DWQ describing a proposed restoration of wetlands between Lots 1 through 8 and references a plan submitted by Hugh J. Gilleece & Associates on August 2, 1999. S&EC does not have a copy of this plan and was unable to obtain a copy from the DWQ. This letter also states the owners to be Heritage Pines, LLC and the developer to be Mr. Mike Matheny. This is important to note because even though Heritage Pines LLC is still the current owner of the unsold portions of Heritage Pines, the developer has since changed to K. Hovnanian Homes. The current developer, K. Hovnanian Homes, has stated to us that they were not involved in these initial discussions with the agencies. DWQ Approval (see attached) & 6/23/1999 Final Site Plan (not attached) - The DWQ approved the use of GC 3101, 3103 and 3108 for the entire development (not just Phase 1) in a letter to the developer, Mr. Mike Methany, dated August 8, 1999. This letter was copied to the USACE, Division of Land Resources, Gilleece & Associates (the engineer) and Steve Prusik (the consultant). This letter also acted as the Authorization Certificate for impacts to the Neuse River Buffers. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PRIOR PROJECT HISTORY ' The letter lists five (5) items. Item 3 stated that wetlands shown as area 11, 7 and 8 shall not be impacted. The item did not require a revised impact map to be generated for approval. Area 11 (now impact area W9-Sheet6) has since been impacted and the ' applicant is proposing to continue work on the lots and mitigate for the loss of wetlands. It appears that areas 7 and 8 (and including 9; we believe that DWQ mistakenly either left out 9 or included 8 instead of 9) have not bee impacted. The applicant is requesting to ' impact this area (now impact area W 10-Sheet6A) within this new application. Item 4 required the 0.22 (acre) wetland area between lots 8 & 10 shall be restored as ' described in the August 11, 1999 letter from Site Scapes Design Group, Inc. S&EC does not have a copy of an A2 ust l lch letter from SiteScapes. We assume that this is referring to the August 4 letter, but we do not have confirmation of this. As stated ' above, we do not have a copy of the August 4`t' plans submitted by Hugh J. Gilleece and associates. We evaluated this area in 2005 and it does not appear that this area has been restored (see site photos attached). Restoration of this area does not seem practicable ' given the adjacent homes. The applicant is now proposing to mitigate for the lost wetlands within this area. ' It should be noted that the DWQ did not require a stonmwater management plan as a condition of the approval. Although the as built design of the development is different from what was originally approved, the general percent of built upon area and major stormwater discharge devices and locations have not changed from those originally ' proposed. As such, the new applicant is not proposing any additional stormwater management for the development. It should also be noted that no stream, wetland or buffer mitigation was required as a condition of the original approval. The applicant is proposing mitigation for the loss of wetlands and perennial streams because these areas were never approved by the USAGE. However, the applicant requests that buffer mitigation not be required given that it was not previously required. It's also interesting to note that the area of buffer impact as well as the length of stream impact was not listed in the original approval letter. We do not have a digital or 8 '/z x 11 copy of the approved 6/7/1999 final site plan / impact map and as such did not include a copy within this application. However, we have ' previously provided DWQ with a copy and can provide additional copies upon request. S&EC Letter to USACE re: Avoidance of Additional Impacts (see attached) - On ' behalf of the current developer we have submitted the attached March 18, 2005 letter to the USACE notifying them of the developers intention not to continue work within portions of Phase 5 of the development that previously contained jurisdictional waters. The developer has since gone one step further and has decided to put all work on hold within the area of Lots 175 to 195 southwest of Louis Stephens Drive until future notice. The applicant does intend to complete work within the remainder of Phase 5 including HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PRIOR PROJECT HISTORY Louis Stephens Drive and the lots northeast of Louis Stephens Drive (all located outside ' of areas that previously contained jurisdictional waters). USACE Letter re: violation (see attached) - The current developer was notified in ' writing by the USACE in a letter dated March 28, 2005 of the previous developer's failure to obtain USACE approval for Phase 2 through 5 of the development prior to discharging fill material into jurisdictional waters. r-- ¦?a.... i Q" i$ $ i i?im FF bb m?. pQR4 E? v'Q'E E.E.

I biologist), Danny Smith (N.C. Division of Water Quality) and myself visited the site known as the Edward's Trad located is Cary, NC for the purpose of dderminiu8 the cadent of jurisdiction under the Neum River Basin Nutrient Sensitive Waters M411880110ent Strategy. Mr. Smith determined that the Neese River Basin riparian buff's rules would apply to the following locations (see attached map): (1) The channel section bcW= wetland flags 149 and 163 located vrid" the drainage ' beneath the smaller of the two ponds. (2) The channel from wetland flag 350 east. ¦ (3) The channel north from 12 foot south of wetland flag 506. A 30-foot undisturbed forested buffer must be placed on all sides ft o the eaaWbnc of the ' oustift channels within these regulated areas In addition, a 20-foot bra should be placed Soil & Environmental Consultants.) inc. 244 West Millbrouk Road w.Raleigh, North Cardina 27609 ¦ (919) 846-5900 ¦ Fax (919) 846-9467 I Soil/Site Evaluation ¦ Mapping and Physical Analysis A Wetlands Mapping and Mitigation ¦ Environmental On-Site Waste'llreatment Systems, Evaluation and Design i on all sides from the outer edge of the 30-foot undishabed buffer. This 20-foot buffer may ' coesist of ground cover composed of trees or grass. Roads, bridges, stacmvrakr mwgament facilities, ponds, and utilities M be allowed to impact these buffers where no pracxical shm atiive resists. Mr. Martin brought up concerns with regards to the unofficial jurisdidiorad determination made by the Corps on 7aly 9th of this year. His concerns are a follows: I (1) The pond (0.82 aces in size) {vested new the northwest portion of the property sbould not be oonssdered jurisdictional doe to the fad "it was created for egricol ural use, no channel or wetland exists above it, no channel exists below it, and no direct connection exists between, it and ' the wedand below. (2) The "chancel area" (277 sq. R in sin) located on the southeast end of the larger pond (3.27 seas in size) Amid not be considered jurisdictional due to the fact that it was aoatod in high-ground and has not significantly naturalized. I A letter has boat sent to the US Army Corps of Engineers requesting thdt they review their original dderimatiou with regards to these srem We are currently awaiting their reply. There a no ' guarantee that they will Change their call, but it cam't hurt to ask However, they will not do co until we receive an agent authorization form signed by the current owner. The Corps requires this form for final delineation app mval (i.e., "sign-of ' of the wotland ddineation neap). Plesao have this attached f form signed and mumd to res.

Thank you for your time in the field on July 6, 1989 reviewing the wetland and Neuae River buffer constraints for Heritage Pines. This letter is being written on behalf d the owners of the property. There were corcerns that were raised that need to be addressed and the owner has every intention of resolving these concerns in an appropriate manner. Our original wetland application was mailed to the Corps and the State on December 20, 1998. On January 7, 1M I received a letter from your office stating that the application fee was not Included as part of our application. A check for $200.00 was issued and delivered to your office January 12, 1999. A second letter was sent to our dice on February 22, indicating anal the application was once again incomplete because the entire project was not shown and two woos conaem regarding an additional pond on site. A revised master pan was prepared and delivered to your office on February 28'",1999 by Hugh J. Cileece do Associates Indicating wetland and buffer impacts for the entire alts. On March 3rd.1999 ova were notified of the approval d the Army Carps 404 pwmiL During a meeting it your dfioes on May 11, 1999 there were concerns raised as to the aocumuk0m total d Impacts for the entire site. it was our understanding at the conclusion d this meeting that by rerrtaAng a secondary Neuse River buffer crossing along the south nr portion or the property, and by reducing the total impacts to the entire site to urlder one acre that this would satiny the concerns d the State. Again, the Master Plan was revised to remove this crossing, re-afign a northern toad around the Nei River buffers, and reduce the total irnpec is to less than on@ acre. Additionally, at this time, it was our understanding that the State did not have any concerns regarding Phase I d the project. No disturbances had occurred adjacent to the small cul-de-sac in the soullnvest corner of the property before this meeWg. During the week of June 21'x, Hugh J. Gffieece and Associates requested approval by the State to install the sewer connection to the a4stIN on site sewer. The state agreed and notified the Town of Cary, which in tun gave approval to install the sewer. 104 Woodwinds Industrial CL Suite C - Cary, NC 27511.

Hovnanian Homes of North Carolina, Inc., we are providing you notice of the owner's intent to stop additional work on a portion of the subdivision until the Individual Permit is approved by your office. The owner intends to stop work on all proposed residential lots within Phase 5 that are located in areas that previously contained jurisdictional wetlands or waters. The attached drawing shows the approved wetland delineation overlaid on the proposed Phase 5 lot layout. No additional work (except possible erosion and sediment control measures required to stabilize the site) will occur in the location of lots 176, 177, 180, 181, 182, 183, 184, 185 and 186. Also, no additional work will occur on the section of the proposed street that fronts lots 181 to 185. Work will continue on the remainder of Phase 5 in locations that did not previously contain wetlands or waters. We are currently working on the draft application for the Individual Permit and expect to have it ready for your review soon. It is the owner's intention to ensure full compliance with wetland regulations. Please call me if you would like to discuss.

Hovnanian Homes of North Carolina, Inc.. 3500 Regency Parkway, Suite F Cary, North Carolina 27511 Dear Mr. Miller: ;939 `?. 60Py t[i •??f 11 Ott 'f? '() ; v APR - 12005 U' ' Please reference your permit application of February 14, 2005, for Department of the Army (DA) permit authorization for impacts associated with the extension of Louis Stephens Drive within Heritage Pines Subdivision, located east of Carpenter Upchurch Road, and south of Morrisville ' Parkway, in Cary, Wake County, North Carolina. The site is adjacent to an unnamed tributary of Crabtree Creek in the Neuse River Basin. Your application requested authorization for impacts to 256 linear feet of perennial stream channel and 0.484 acres of wetland. ' On February 22, 2005, Mr. Todd Tugwell with the Raleigh Regulatory Field Office attended a meeting on the site with Mr. Todd Preuninger with Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc. to review the proposed work. Prior to the meeting, Mr. Tugwell determined that nationwide permit authorization had previously been provided to the former developer of the subdivision, Mr. J. Michael Edwards, for impacts totaling 0.913 acre of waters of the U.S. associated with Phase 1 of ' the subdivision. During the meeting, Mr. Tugwell discovered that you have already constructed several additional phases of the development, or are currently in progress. Based on maps obtained from Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc., it appears that the construction of roads, lot fill, and sewer lines required for the additional phases of the development have resulted in the loss of 0.956 ' acre of waters of the U.S. and approximately 180 linear feet of perennial stream channel, and temporary impacts to 0.1 acre of wetlands. These activities, conducted in waters of the United States without authorization by a DA permit, are a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1311). We also received a letter dated March 18, 2005, submitted on your behalf by Mr. Bob ' Zarzecki with Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc., which states that it is your intention to cease all on-going work in areas containing waters of the U.S. within unfinished portions of Phase 5 of the development. The letter stated that Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc. is currently preparing ' an after-the-fact individual permit application for the unauthorized activities. Please note that our acceptance of an after-the-fact permit application does not imply, by the Corps of Engineers or other agencies, either a favorable or an unfavorable opinion of the work performed. Please note that ' CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED -2- while you pursue after-the-fact permit authorization for impacts associated with the development, we will suspend further enforcement actions pending the outcome of your permit request. Also, please be aware that your individual DA permit application will be evaluated in accordance with procedures established in a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the DA and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), signed on February 6, 1990. The MOA clarifies the type and level of mitigation necessary to comply with the Clean Water Act Section 404(b)(1) Guidelines. This MOA provides for first, avoiding impacts to waters and wetlands through the selection of the least damaging, practical alternative; second, taking appropriate and practical steps to minimize impacts on waters and wetlands; and finally, compensating for any remaining unavoidable impacts to the extent appropriate and practical. To comply with this MOA, you are required to provide the following information in support of your after-the-fact permit application: a. Permits for work within wetlands or other special aquatic sites are available only if the proposed work is the least environmentally damaging, practicable alternative. Your application must contain information regarding any other alternatives, both on and off site, to the work for which you have applied, and demonstrate that your selected plan is the least damaging to aquatic resources. b. It is necessary for you to have taken all appropriate and practical steps to minimize losses to waters of the U.S. Documentation submitted in support of your permit application must indicate all that you have done; especially regarding the modification of plans and proposed construction techniques, to minimize adverse impacts (i.e., to reduce the discharge of fill material into waters of the United States as much as practicable). Your response should address alternate site designs, which may result in reduced impacts to the aquatic environment. c. The MOA requires that appropriate and practical mitigation (e.g., restoration, enhancement, and/or preservation of wetlands and stream channels) will be required for all unavoidable adverse impacts remaining after all appropriate and practical minimization has been employed. Please note that mitigation may be required for all direct and indirect impacts that result in a degradation of the aquatic resources on site. Please submit your completed after-the-fact permit application to the Raleigh Regulatory Field Office no later than April 27, 2005. If additional time is required for restoration of the site or to prepare your permit application, you should contact my staff with a request for an extension of time, providing justification(s) for the delay. Please be reminded that no further work within wetlands or waters can occur on your property until this matter is resolved. Such work, without authorization by a DA permit, will be considered a willful and intentional violation of the Clean Water Act, and may result in referral of this matter to the U.S. Attorneys Office for appropriate action. -3- With regard to the proposed construction of Louis Stephens Drive, we have determined that the proposed road is a separate thoroughfare. Therefore, we consider it as a separate project for the purposes of DA permit requirements. Since the road's construction will benefit the surrounding community and the Town of Cary will take over maintenance following its construction, it is necessary, that the Town of Cary apply for these impacts separately. Accordingly, the Town of Cary can submit an application for the road before we resolve the violation at the subdivision. We are forwarding a copy of this letter to the Town of Cary so that they may take appropriate action in this matter. Please contact Mr. Tugwell, at telephone (919) 876-8441, Extension 26, if you have any questions or comments. I Sincerely, I U -" S.

HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION MITIGATION PLAN The applicant does not believe that on site mitigation is practicable beyond avoidance to any additional wetlands, streams and buffers. As such, the applicant proposes to make a payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund administered by the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). The applicant has not yet formally requested the acceptance for this payment from NCEEP. This request will be submitted as soon as the agencies have verified that the impacts listed within this application are correct, have provided guidance on the feasibility of these impacts being approved, have agreed upon the appropriate mitigation ratios, the applicant is both willing and able to make such payment, and NCEEP accepts the requested payment. If in the case that the applicant is neither willing nor able to make this payment once determined by the agencies or NCEEP is not willing to accept the payment, then the applicant will propose an alternative mitigation plan. At this time the applicant proposes to mitigate through payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund for all permanent perennial stream impacts (297 feet), riparian (within 200 feet of a stream determined by DWQ to be subject to the Neuse River Buffer Rules) wetland impacts (1.705 acres), and non-riparian (greater than 200 feet of a stream determined by DWQ to be subject to the Neuse River Buffer Rules) wetland impacts (0.702 acres). At this time the applicant is proposing a 1:1 mitigation ratio for these impacts. No mitigation for impacts to Neuse River Buffers is currently proposed given that it was not required by the DWQ as a condition of there August 8, 1999 approval. However if buffer mitigation is determined to be required, then the applicant proposes payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund. No mitigation for impacts to open waters and other waters (excluding perennial streams and wetlands) is proposed. Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 297 Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): 58,064** Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 1.705 Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0.702 ** No buffer mitigation is currently proposed at this time as discussed above. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES In a document provided by the U.S. Corps of Engineers titled "Wetlands & Corps Wetland Regulations" and dated August 13, 2001, the Corps of Engineers lists 21 specific factors that will be reviewed related to Public Interest. These factors are similar to the "Evaluation Factors" listed on Page 8 of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Regulatory Program, Application Information document dated May 1985. These items are as follows: Conservation Water Quality Wetlands Flood Hazard Floodplain Value Land Use Recreation Safety Aesthetics Historic Properties Water Supply Navigation Energy Needs Mineral Needs Economics Fish & Wildlife Values Shore Erosion and Accretion Food & Fiber Production Environmental Concerns Property Ownership Needs and Welfare of the People Responses to each of the 21 Public Interest Issues are presented below. Conservation: No additional impacts are proposed to the remaining wetlands, streams and riparian buffers on the site beyond those that have already occurred or those proposed within this new application. Water Quality: The construction will meet all of the local, State and Federal design requirements with regards to protection of water quality. The two ponds on the property, while not designed to NCDENR stormwater requirements, are expected to provide some treatment (TSS, etc.) of stormwater runoff that enters them. Many of the other stormwater conveyances discharge to devises that provide some form of diffuse flow or dispersed flow prior through riparian areas prior to entering the streams. The surface waters on site are classified by the DWQ as "C, NSW". The development will comply with all DWQ water quality standards for class "C, NSW" waters. Wetlands: No additional impacts are proposed to the remaining wetlands on the site beyond those that have already occurred or those proposed within this new application. Wetland functions will therefore be retained within these areas. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES Flood Hazard: The site is located outside of any flood hazard areas as designated on the latest Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) issued to Wake County and incorporated communities in June 2004 (see http://www.ncfloodmaps.com/NewsArchives/wake prelims.htm ), therefore flooding is not of concern. The culverts below Heritage Pines Drive have been reviewed and approved by the local municipality to ensure the proper passage of any high water events. Floodplain Value: The site is located outside the 100-year floodplain, therefore there are no impacts to any existing FEMA designated floodplain areas. Other than the fill installed for Heritage Pines Drive, the remainder of the wetlands and riparian area on either side of the mainstream channel were not and will not be impacted. Floodplain functions will be retained within these areas. Land Use: The proposed development owned by Heritage Pines, LLC is being or has already been developed as a residential community. The surrounding properties are primarily residential and institutional (Wake County Schools). Recreation: No public or private recreational facilities will be affected by the development and operation of the facility. Heritage Pines offers many recreational activities (including swimming, tennis, walking trails, etc.) within the community. It's vicinity to the neighboring school provides easy access to the recreational facilities offered at the school. Safety: All entrances to the development along state roads are already installed and meet the standards of the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT). In addition to the NCDOT constraints imposed for the sake of safety, there are also constraints on the construction process by state law and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Aesthetics: The applicant does not believe that Heritage Pines will negatively the affect aesthetics of the surrounding properties and many people may feel that this well landscaped community enhances the aesthetics of the area. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES Historic Properties: The State Historic Preservation Office, North Carolina Listings in the National Register of Historic Places by County document provided on their web site (see http://www.hpo.dcr.state.nc.us/nrlist.htm) does not list any historic places within the property boundaries. The Carpenter Historic District is located about 0.8 miles north of the property and the Green Level Historic District is located about 2 miles west of the property. The applicant does not believe that either of these Historic Districts will be directly impacted by the development and may actually be enhanced in that people moving to the area may wish to promote the restoration and revitalization of these historic districts. The State Historic Preservation Office has not been contacted as of the date of this application. The applicant welcomes their review and comments. Water Supply: The site is not in a water supply watershed. The Town of Cary provides water to the development. The applicant does not believe that development of the site and the resulting water needs will not adversely affect any existing off-site water supplies. Navigation: The wetlands proposed to receive fill materials are not located in navigable waters. No impacts to navigation are anticipated as a result of site development. Energy Needs: Electrical energy for the development will be supplied by the local network as operated by Progress Energy. The development will not generate any of its own power and will not have energy needs in excess of normal residential development. Mineral Needs: Neither supply nor demand for mineral resources will be negatively affected by the development of this site. Economics: Heritage Pines provides an economical active adult living community for retirees living on fixed incomes. It is expected that these the new retirees and residents moving to the area will promote the local businesses and economy. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES Fish & Wildlife Values: The following species have been federally listed as Threatened or Endangered for Wake County: Common Name Scientific Name Status I Bald Eagle Halieetus leucocephalus Threatened Red-cockaded woodpecker Picoides borealis Endangered Dwarf Wedgemussel Alasmidonta heterodon Endangered Michaux's Sumac Rhus michauxii Endangered Utilizing the N.C. Natural Heritage Program (NHP) database of all recorded protected species occurrences, S&EC found that there were no occurrences of a protected species with the project limits and no occurrences of the federally protected species listed above within a three mile radius of the project limits. No direct or secondary adverse impacts to federally listed species or exemplary natural communities are expected from the construction of the proposed subdivision. The two ponds located on the property and retained stream, wetland and riparian corridors are anticipated to provide habitat and wildlife corridors both within and through the community. Shore Erosion & Accretion: This public interest issue is not applicable to this application as the subdivision will not affect shore erosion or accretion. Food & Fiber Production: The Heritage Pines subdivision will produce neither food nor fiber as part of the facility operations. Environmental Concerns: Noise No adverse impacts to noise levels in the area are anticipated from the development of this site. It is anticipated that the older population and retirees that reside in the community (many of which do not work and spend much of their time within the community) will encourage noise levels from construction activities and post - construction activities to be maintained at an acceptable level. 3 I HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES I Prevention of Contamination All construction activities and resulting infrastructure will be in compliance with I applicable environmental laws. No facilities are planned that have a significant risk for production or release of environmental contaminants. Erosion and Sedimentation Construction at the site will be performed under an approved Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan to minimize sedimentation and erosion in the construction areas. Stormwater during construction will be managed using sedimentation basins and other control devises that will reduce the sediment load in runoff and will attenuate peak flow rates to prevent downstream erosion. Air Quality No adverse impacts to local air quality are anticipated as a result of this development. Property Ownership: Phase 5 of Heritage Pines is currently owned by Heritage Pines, LLC. Many of the properties within Phases 1 through 4 have been sold and currently have multiple different property owners. Adjacent property owners to Heritage Pines are listed in Block 24. Needs and Welfare of the People: Providing adult housing in an area where older populations are expected to increase addresses the needs and welfare of the people. r4l;j 'Ecstem .?._...... _ PROGRAM May 18, 2005 Bob Zarzecki Soil & Environmental Consultants, PA 11010 Raven Ridge Road Raleigh, NC 27614 Project: Heritage Pines County: Wake The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NC EEP) is willing to accept payment for impacts associated with the above referenced project. Please note that this decision does not assure that the payment will be approved by the permit issuing agencies as mitigation for project impacts. It is the responsibility of the applicant to contact these agencies to determine if payment to the NC EEP will be approved. This acceptance is valid for six months from the date of this letter. If we have not received a copy of the issued 404 Permit/401 Certification within this time frame, this acceptance will expire. It is the applicant's responsibility to send copies of the 404/401/CAMA permits to NC EEP. Once NC EEP receives a copy of the 404 Permit and/or the 401 Certification an invoice will be issued and payment must be made. Based on the information supplied by you the impacts that may require compensatory mitigation are summarized in the following table.

Keep in mind that the public comment period will end on June 9, assuming the public notice goes out today (which I hope it does). Agency comments are often submitted (faxed) toward the end of the comment period. Also 1:1 mitigation is low for impacts of this nature, both for streams and wetlands. Given that the wetlands were forested and.at least moderate in quality, it is appropriate that 2:1 mitigation be provided. The same applies to the stream channel impacts, which should be calculated using the stream mitigation guidelines available on our website. Mitigation will be require under today's standards, and because the application is requesting authorization for all impacts including those in phase 1, I believe 2:1 ratios are appropriate for all impacts to streams and wetlands. Unfortunately, it is likely that we will get negative comments from several agencies due to the proposed mitigation. As for the impacts to open waters, no mitigation was proposed - in this case I feel we can live with that given that mitigation for open water impacts would likely result in additional impacts to streams/wetlands. The application does not discuss any alternatives, either on or off site. 1 of 4 5/16/2005 9:40 AM imap://debbie.edwards%40dwq.denr.ncmail.net@cros.ncmail.net:143/... We need some narrative describing why there are not alternative site designs that could reduce impacts, as well as a discussion of why alternative sites in the area would not be practicable alternatives. The fact that the development has already been constructed is not justification. Please reference our letter of March 28, 2005, where we discuss the sequencing requirements established by the 1990 EPA Memorandum. Regarding alternatives, you should specifically address why it is not possible to avoid remaining wetlands on Lots 70 and 71, and also explain why wetlands in lots 181-186 cannot be reestablished. If it is your position that these impacts are required for the applicant to make the site economically viable, I recommend that you provide an economic analysis to demonstrate this. Can just one or two of the lots be undeveloped, perhaps 183 and 184 for instance? I recommend that you contact EEP ASAP to see if they have/are willing to accept the mitigation requirement. If not, we need to have an alternative mitigation plan submitted, and it will likely require that we send the application back out on public notice if this is the case. Also, just for clarification, in your application, you noted that the original USACE permit was mistakenly sent to S&EC, but the original application does list S&EC as the agent. We can discuss these issues in more detail at the meeting. 6508 Falls of the Neuse Road, Suite 120 Raleigh, NC 27615 work: (919) 876-8441 ext 26 fax: (919) 876-5823 www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands/index.html Thanks, Todd J.

Cary, NC 27511 919481-9506 (office) 919-630-9200 (mobile) 919462-8646 {far) Re: Edward's Tract Cary, Wake County, NC Dear Mr. Matheny, On November 5, 1997, Kevin Martin (S&EC, Inc. president), Steve Roberts (S&EC, Inc. biologist), Danny Smith (N.C. Division of Water Quality) and myself visited the site known as the Edward's Tract located in Cary, NC for the purpose of determining the extent of jurisdiction under the Neuse Rive Basin Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy. Mr. Smith determined that the Neuse River Basin riparian buffer rules would apply to the following locations (see attached map): (1) The channel section between wetland flags 148 and 163 located within the drainage beneath the smaller of the two ponds. (2) The channel from wetland flag 350 east. (3) The channel north from 12 feet south of wetland flag 506. A 30-foot undisturbed forested buffer must be placed on all sides from the centerline of the existing channels within these regulated areas. In addition, a 20-foot buffer should be placed Soil/Site Evaluation ¦ Mapping and Physical Analysis ¦ Wetlands Mapping and Mitigation ¦ Environmental Aud On-Site Waste Treatment Systems, Evaluation and Design on all sides from the outer edge of the 30-foot undisturbed buffer. This 20-foot buffer may consist of ground cover composed of trees or grass. Roads, bridges, stormwater management facilities, ponds, and utilities an be allowed to impact these buffers where no practical alternative exists. Mr. Martin brought up concerns with regards to the unofficial jurisdictional determination made by the Corps on July 9th of this year. His concerns are as follows: (1) The pond (0.82 acres in size) located near the northwest portion of the property should not be considered jurisdictional due to the fact that it was created for agricultural use, no channel or wetland exists above it, no channel exists below it, and no direct connection exists between it and the wetland below. (2) The "channel area" (277 sq. & in size) located on the southeast end of the larger pond (3.27 acres in size) should not be considered jurisdictional due to the fact that it was created in high-ground and has not significantly naturalized. A letter has been sent to the US May Corps of Engineers requesting that they review their original determination with regards to these areas. We are currently awaiting their reply. There is no guarantee that they will change their call, but it can't hurt to ask. However, they will not do so until we receive an agent authorization fora signed by the current owner. Tho Caps requires this form for final delineation approval (i.e., "sign-off 'of the wetland delineation map). Please have this attached form signed and returned to us. If you have any questions, comments or need further explanation please feel free to call. Sincerely, - Zarzecki Biologist ,. a 411 7 .auw t 7'F ary/ 1, ,S a4p ii, i t ? 1 fF lrx ?? + ?:. N/F JAMES M.

CF: Town of Cary t Land Planning - Site Design July 8, 1999 NC Division of Water Quality Attn: Mr. John Domey 4401 Reedy Creek Road Raleigh, NC 27607 RE: Heritage Pines Retirement Community Dear Mr. Domey: Thank you for your time in the field on July 6, 1999 reviewing the wetland and Neuse River buffer constraints for Heritage Pines. This letter is being written on behalf of the owners of the Property. There were Concerns that were raised that need to be addressed and the owner has every intention of resolving these concerns in an appropriate manner. Our original wetland application was mailed to the Corps and the State on December 20, 1998. On January 7, 19991 received a letter from your office stating that the application fee was not included as part of our application. A check for $200.00 was issued and delivered to your office January 12, 1999. A second letter was sent to our office on February 22, 1999 indicating that the application was once again incanplete because the entire project was not shown and there was concern regarding an additional pond on site. A revised master plan was prepared and delivered to your office on February 26 ,1999 by Hugh J. Gilleece & Associates indicating wetland and buffer impacts for the entire site. On March 3`°, 1999 we were notified of the approval of the Amry Corps 404 pemtiik During a meeting at your offices on May 11, 1999 there were concerns raised as to the accurnulative total of impacts for the entire she. It was our understanding at the conclusion of this meeting that by removing a secondary Neuse River buffer crossing along the southern portion of the property, and by reducing the total ifnpacts to the entire site to under one acre that this would satisfy the concerns of the State. Again, the Master Plan was revised to remove this crossing, re-align a northern road around the Neuse River buffers. and reduce the total impacts to Jess than one acre. Additionally, at this time, it was our understanding that the State did not have any concerns regarding Phase 1 of the project. No disturbances had occurred adjacent to the small cure-sac in the southwest corner of the property before this meeting. During the week of June 21'x, Hugh J. Gilleece and Associates requested approval by the State to install the sewer connection to the existing on site sewer. The State agreed and notified the Town of Cary, which in turn gave approval to install the sewer. 104 Woodwinds Industrial Ct. Suite C - Cary, NC 27511 .

Pete Colwell of the Central office Wetland/401 Unit investigated impacts to the stream side (riparian) vegetative buffer along an unnamed tributary to Crabtree Creek. This project is referred to by this Office as DWQ 99-0016. Mr., Colwell observed impacts to the Neuse Riparian Zone from the installation of a sever line that removed tht forested vegetations along one side of the stream feature. Staff also observed water and wetland impacta prior to the issuance of a, 401 Water Quality Certification. M specifically, a sever line was installed within zone One of the protected buffer and that protective buffer was essentially removed- The Neuse Buffer Rule requires that non.-electric utility lines which propose to impact this zone in a pop-garpendicular pathway to meet the following }}criterion: 1) Obtain a s3eterranation of 'no practical alternarives- to the proposed use pursuant to Item 8 of this paragraph; 2) Obtain approval for a mitigation proposal pursuant to 15A NCAAC 2B .0242. The impacts to the riparian vegetation referenced above is a violation of the Reuse River Basin: Nutrient Sensitive Waters Management Strategy; protection and Maintenance of Existing Riparian Areas, Administrative Code T1SA:02B.0233. Any activity that would result it water quality standard violations or that disrupt the structural or functional integrity of the riparian area are prohibited.

Hovnanian Homes of North Carolina, Inc., we are providing you notice of the owner's intent to stop additional work on a portion of the subdivision until the Individual Permit is approved by your office. The owner intends to stop work on all proposed residential lots within Phase 5 that are located in areas that previously contained jurisdictional wetlands or waters. The attached drawing shows the approved wetland delineation overlaid on the proposed Phase 5 lot layout. No additional work (except possible erosion and sediment control measures required to stabilize the site) will occur in the location of lots 176, 177, 180, 181, 182, 183, 184, 185 and 186. Also, no additional work will occur on the section of the proposed street that fronts lots 181 to 185. Work will continue on the remainder of Phase 5 in locations that did not previously contain wetlands or waters. We are currently working on the draft application for the Individual Permit and expect to have it ready for your review soon. It is the owner's intention to ensure full compliance with wetland regulations. Please call me if you would like to discuss.

Regulatory Division Action ID. 200520456 DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY WILMINGTON DISTRICT, CORPS OF ENGINEERS PO BOX 1890 WILMINGTON NC 28402-1890 March 28, 2005 Mr. Mark Miller K. Hovnanian Homes of North Carolina, Inc. 3500 Regency Parkway, Suite F Cary, North Carolina 27511 Dear Mr. Miller: ,dfa ?)139 vva 4 ply Please reference your permit application of February 14, 2005, for Department of the Army (DA) permit authorization for impacts associated with the extension of Louis Stephens Drive within Heritage Pines Subdivision, located east of Carpenter Upchurch Road, and south of Morrisville Parkway, in Cary, Wake County, North Carolina. The site is adjacent to an unnamed tributary of Crabtree Creek in the Neuse River Basin. Your application requested authorization for impacts to 256 linear feet of perennial stream channel and 0.484 acres of wetland. On February 22, 2005, Mr. Todd Tugwell with the Raleigh Regulatory Field Office attended a meeting on the site with Mr. Todd Preuninger with Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc. to review the proposed work. Prior to the meeting, Mr. Tugwell determined that nationwide permit authorization had previously 'ded to the former developer of the subdivision, Mr. J. Michael Edwards, for impacts totali g 0.913 re of waters of the U.S. associated with Phase 1 of the subdivision. During the meeting, T wvell discovered that you have already constructed several additional phases of the development, or are currently in progress. Based on maps obtained from Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc., it appears that the construction of roads, lot fill, and sewer lines required for the additional phases of the development have resulted in the loss of 0.956 acre of waters of the U.S. and approximately 180 linear feet of perennial stream channel, and temporary impacts to 0.1 acre of wetlands. These activities, conducted in waters of the United States without authorization by a DA permit, are a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1311). We also received a letter dated March 18, 2005, submitted on your behalf by Mr. Bob Zarzecki with Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc., which states that it is your intention to cease all on-going work in areas containing waters of the U.S. within unfinished portions of Phase 5 of the development. The letter stated that Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc. is currently preparing an after-the-fact individual permit application for the unauthorized activities. Please note that our acceptance of an after-the-fact permit application does not imply, by the Corps of Engineers or other agencies, either a favorable or an unfavorable opinion of the work performed. Please note that CERTIFIED !MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED -2- while you pursue after-the-fact permit authorization for impacts associated with the development, we will suspend further enforcement actions pending the outcome of your permit request. Also, please be aware that your individual DA permit application will be evaluated in accordance with procedures established in a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the DA and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), signed on February 6, 1990. The MOA clarifies the type and level of mitigation necessary to comply with the Clean Water Act Section 404(b)(1) Guidelines. This MOA provides for first, avoiding impacts to waters and wetlands through the selection of the least damaging, practical alternative; second, taking appropriate and practical steps to minimize impacts on waters and wetlands; and finally, compensating for any remaining unavoidable impacts to the extent appropriate and practical. To comply with this MOA, you are required to provide the following information in support of your after-the-fact permit application: a. Permits for work within wetlands or other special aquatic sites are available only if the proposed work is the least environmentally damaging, practicable alternative. Your application must contain information regarding any other alternatives, both on and off site, to the work for which you have applied, and demonstrate that your selected plan is the least damaging to aquatic resources. b. It is necessary for you to have taken all appropriate and practical steps to minimize losses to waters of the U.S. Documentation submitted in support of your permit application must indicate all that you have done; especially regarding the modification of plans and proposed construction techniques, to minimize adverse impacts (i.e., to reduce the discharge of fill material into waters of the United States as much as practicable). Your response should address alternate site designs, which may result in reduced impacts to the aquatic environment. c. The MOA requires that appropriate and practical mitigation (e.g., restoration, enhancement, and/or preservation of wetlands and stream channels) will be required for all unavoidable adverse impacts remaining after all appropriate and practical minimization has been employed. Please note that mitigation may be required for all direct and indirect impacts that result in a degradation of the aquatic resources on site. Please submit your completed after-the-fact permit application to the Raleigh Regulatory Field Office no later than April 27, 2005. If additional time is required for restoration of the site or to prepare your permit application, you should contact my staff with a request for an extension of time, providing justification(s) for the delay. Please be reminded that no further work within wetlands or waters can occur on your property until this matter is resolved. Such work, without authorization by a DA permit, will be considered a willful and intentional violation of the Clean Water Act, and may result in referral of this matter to the U.S. Attorneys Office for appropriate action. -3- With regard to the proposed construction of Louis Stephens Drive, we have determined that the proposed road is a separate thoroughfare. Therefore, we consider it as a separate project for the purposes of DA permit requirements. Since the road's construction will benefit the surrounding community and the Town of Cary will take over maintenance following its construction, it is necessary that the Town of Cary apply for these impacts separately. Accordingly, the Town of Cary can submit an application for the road before we resolve the violation at the subdivision. We are forwarding a copy of this letter to the Town of Cary so that they may take appropriate action in this matter. Please contact Mr. Tug-well, at telephone (919) 876-8441, Extension 26, if you have any questions or comments. Sincerely, 1 S.

Hamilton, Executive Director MEMORANDUM TO: Mr. Todd Tugwell, Raleigh Regulatory Field Office U.S.Army Corps of Engineers FROM: Shan L. Bryant, Pied ont Region Coordinator JUN 2005 1 Habitat Conservation Program I)ENI - sa ?a? DATE: 10 June 2005 WgLOMMD SUBJECT: Public Notice for Heritage Pines, LLC for Construction of Heritage Pines Subdivision (After-the-Fact), Wake County, North Carolina. Action ID No. 200520456 Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the subject document and we are familiar with the habitat values of the area. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (as amended), Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended, 16 U.S.C. 661-667d), and North Carolina General Statutes (G.S. 113-131 et seq.). The project includes a single-family residential development with a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts and walking trails. The applicant indicates that Phases 1-3 have been constructed, Phase 4 is nearing completion and Phase 5 is partially complete. The majority of the impacts associated with this permit application have been completed.. Proposed impacts to stream channels resulting from placement of fill material, culverts, and/or riprap totals 337 linear feet (0.072 acre) of perennial stream channel, including 40 linear feet of temporary impact. Proposed impacts to wetlands resulting from the placement of fill material for roads, building pads, pond dams, and utility lines totals 2.407 acres for wetlands including 0.192 acre of temporary impact. Proposed impacts to open waters resulting from modifications to the existing farm ponds total 1.858 acres. The applicant proposes 1:1 mitigation for impacts to stream channels and wetlands associated with the project by providing payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) for the restoration of 297 linear feet of stream channel, 1.705 acre of riparian wetlands and 0.702 acre of non-riparian wetland. No mitigation for impact to open waters has been proposed. Unnamed tributaries to Crabtree Creek in the Neuse River basin flow through the site. There are records for the federal species of concern and state endangered Atlantic pigtoe (Fusconaia masoni), state threatened creeper (Strophitus undulatus), and state special concern notched rainbow (Villosa constricta) in Crabtree Creek. Mailing Address: Division of Inland Fisheries - 1721 Mail Service Center - Raleigh, NC 27699-1721 Telephone: (919) 733-3633 - Fax: (919) 715-7643 Page 2 10 June 2005 Heritage Pines Subdivision Action ID No. 200520456 We hesitate to concur with the piping of stream channels due to the potential for long-term and cumulative impacts. Stream piping and placing fill in aquatic resources can result in significant negative impacts to downstream areas and eliminate fish and wildlife habitat. Stream piping reduces the infiltration of stormwater and associated pollutants, as well as the dissipation of stream energy. Piping a stream and placing it underground removes both aquatic and terrestrial habitat. Piping a stream channel and filling the wetlands will alter the hydrology of the existing channel and eliminate beneficial functions. Likewise we hesitate to concur with the filling of wetlands due to their wildlife habitat value and the well- known beneficial functions that they provide for flood control and water quality protection. Changes in land use from a primarily forested area to an urban landscape may exacerbate channel degradation and sediment impacts to stream ecosystems due to increased stormwater runoff. Multiple studies have shown that stream degradation occurs at 10% impervious (Schueler 1994; Arnold and Gibbons 1996; Doll et al. 2000; Mallin et al. 2000; May and Horner 2000; Stewart et al. 2000; Paul and Meyer 2001). We are particularly concerned about the amount of lot fill that has occurred for construction of this project. Generally, the NCWRC discourages filling of wetlands or productive aquatic habitat for the purpose of creating high ground for development. Opportunities to avoid or minimize impacts to stream channels and wetlands associated with development projects are typically addressed through the permit process. Since the stream and wetland impacts have already occurred, avoidance or minimization of stream and wetland impacts associated with this project has been precluded. It is unclear from the public notice whether avoidance or minimization of impacts to streams and wetlands is possible in Phase 5 since is it not yet completed. Additionally, it is unclear whether the applicant plans to preserve remaining undisturbed stream channels, riparian buffers, or wetlands within the development. It is our understanding that compensatory mitigation for wetlands is 2:1 for restoration, 3:1 for creation, 4:1 for enhancement and 10:1 for preservation (in combination with appropriate restoration, creation and enhancement). The Stream Mitigation Guidelines (April 2003) shows compensatory mitigation ratios (Table 1, p. 5) for poor-fair, good and excellent quality streams. It is unclear whether the streams impacted by this project would be classified as poor-fair, good, or excellent. Since impacts have occurred and restoration of impacted areas is not likely (i.e., lot fill for houses which are now occupied), we are concerned that the proposed 1:1 mitigation as payment into the NCEEP may not be adequate. At this time, we do not feel we can adequately review the permit. In order to complete our review, we kindly request the following information: • Avoidance or minimization of impacts to streams and wetlands in Phase 5 • Proposed preservation of remaining undisturbed stream channels (linear feet), riparian buffers (linear feet distance and width) and wetlands (acres) within the development • Type of wetlands that have been or will be impacted • Type of open water impacts that have or will occur • Stream quality determination, if known, for impacted stream channels Should it be determined that an adequate mitigation plan is provided and the permit is issued, we recommend the following conditions be incorporated into the permit to fiuther minimize impacts to fish and wildlife resources. To minimize additional stream impacts, while retaining some measure of wildlife habitat, we recommend that a 100-foot undisturbed, native, forested buffer along perennial streams, and a 50- foot buffer along intermittent streams and wetlands. Maintaining undisturbed, forested buffers along these areas will minimize impacts to fish and wildlife resources, water quality, and aquatic habitat both within and downstream of the project area. In addition, wide riparian buffers are Page 3 10 June 2005 Heritage Pines Subdivision Action ID No. 200520456 helpful in maintaining stability of stream banks and for treatment of pollutants associated with stormwater runoff. Whereas, a grassed buffer, particularly fescue, is a vegetated buffer but will not provide the necessary and highly valuable functions as discussed for forested buffers. 2. We recommend that all remaining wetlands and streams on the site should be protected from additional impacts by placing them in a permanent conservation easement to prohibit filling, draining, flooding, and excavation. 3. Use bridges for all permanent roadway crossings of streams and associated wetlands to eliminate the need to fill and culvert, where practicable. If culverts must be used, the culvert should be designed to allow passage of aquatic organisms. Generally, this means that the culvert or pipe invert is buried at least one foot below the natural streambed. If multiple cells are required, the second and/or third cells should be placed so that their bottoms are at stream bankfull stage. This will allow sufficient water depth in the culvert or pipe during normal flows to accommodate movements of aquatic organisms. If culverts are long and sufficient slope exists, baffle systems are recommended to trap gravel and provide resting areas for fish and other aquatic organisms. If multiple pipes or cells are used, at least one pipe or box should be designed to remain dry during normal flows to allow for wildlife passage. In addition, culverts or pipes should be situated so that no channel realignment or widening is required Widening of the stream channel at the inlet or outlet of structures usually causes a decrease in water velocity causing sediment deposition that will require future maintenance. Finally, riprap should not be placed on the streambed. 4. To adequately protect streams, it is suggested that impervious surface is limited to less than 10%. Suggested examples to accomplish the <10% impervious goal are using conventional designs at a level of <10% imperviousness or using conservation clusters with higher densities, with dedicated open space and other stormwater control measures to mimic the hydrograph consistent with an impervious coverage of less than Me. 5. Locate sewers and other utilities as far away from creeks as functionally possible and minimize stream crossings. It is preferable that sewers be located outside the riparian buffers. 6. A buffer of native trees and shrubs should remain or be planted around the pond(s) to provide avian and terrestrial habitat and to reduce exposure of the water surface to sunlight. These should provide habitat benefits that could offset those functions lost by development, partially restore aquatic habitats, reduce exposure of the water surface to sunlight thereby minimizing thermal pollution, and provide essential summer and winter habitats. 7. We recommend that landscaping consist of non-invasive native species and LID technology. Using native species instead of ornamentals should provide benefits by reducing the need for fertilizers, herbicides, and pesticides. Additionally, native species should require less water. Using LID technology in landscaping will not only help maintain the predevelopment hydrologic regime, but also enhance the aesthetic and habitat value of the site. 8. Specialized efforts and techniques are implemented to reduce sediment runoff from construction activities. Excessive silt and sediment loads can have numerous detrimental effects on aquatic resources including destruction of spawning habitat, suffocation of eggs, and clogging of gills of aquatic species.

Specific plans and location information are described below and shown on the attached plans. This Public Notice and all attached plans are also available on the Wilmington District Web Site at www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands Applicant: AGENT (if applicable): Authority Heritage Pines, LLC Attn: Mr. Mark Miller 3500 Regency Parkway Cary, NC 27511 2 rnp r? 9 ko L;?' 0 W Rq- P JUN 1 = 2005 Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc. DENR -WATER QUALITY Attn: Mr. Bob Zarzecki IVOW DS AND STORMWATER BUXH 11010 Raven Ridge Road Raleigh, North Carolina 27614 The Corps will evaluate this application and a decide whether to issue, conditionally issue, or deny the proposed work pursuant to the applicable procedures of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act. Location The project, Heritage Pines Residential Subdivision, is approximately 100 acres in size and is located to the east of Carpenter Upchurch Road (SR 1617), approximately 0.75 mile south of Morrisville-Carpenter Road (SR 3014), in Cary, Wake County, North Carolina. Coordinates (in decimal degrees) for the site are 35.8092 ° North, 78.`8668 West. The site contains several unnamed tributaries of Crabtree Creek, and adjacent wetlands, in the Neuse River Basin (8-Digit Cataloging Unit 03020201). Existing Site Conditions The project site, which is located in a suburban area west of Raleigh, has been under development for several years. Currently, all portions of the property have either been developed as single-family residential units, or they are under development. Phases 1 through 3 have already been constructed, phase 4 is nearing completion, and phase 5 is partially complete. The site contains several tributaries to Crabtree Creek, along with adjacent wetlands and two amenity ponds that were formerly farm ponds. Prior to development, the site was abandoned agricultural fields and forestland. Applicant's Stated Purpose As stated by the applicant, the purpose of the project is to provide an active adult country club residential community, marketed to adults 55 years of age and older. The community provides a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts, and paved walking trails and sidewalks. Additional housing for the growing Cary area. The development contains single-family residences with lots ranging from 0.15 to 0.2 acres. Project Description The permit request for this project is an after-the-fact application. The majority of impacts associated with this permit application have already been completed. This public notice does not imply, on the part of the Corps of Engineers or other agencies, either a favorable or unfavorable opinion of the work performed. This notice is issued to solicit comments regarding the factors on which a final decision will be based. The applicant has agreed to place the project on hold, pending the resolution of the permit application. Further enforcement action, including possible legal action, has been suspended pending the outcome of this consideration. The project is a residential development that will include construction of single-family units, a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts, and walking trails. In all, there are 5 phases of the subdivision. Continued development of the site will require extensive clearing, grading, excavation, and fill necessary for the construction of homes, lots, roads, stormwater facilities, and infrastructure. Heavy equipment, including graders, pan scrapers, excavators, bull dozers, etc. will be used for the construction of the project. Proposed impacts to stream channels resulting from the placement of fill material, culverts, and/or riprap totals 337 linear feet (0.072 acre) of perennial stream channel, including 40 linear feet of temporary impact. Proposed impacts to wetlands resulting from the placement of fill material for roads, building pads, pond dams, and utility lines totals 2.407 acres of wetland, including 0.192 acre of temporary impact. Proposed impacts to open waters resulting from modification of the existing farms ponds totals 1.858 acres. The total impact to all waters of the U.S. is 4.337 acres. Plans included with this notice that show the overall proposed site layout as well as the details for impacted waters. The applicant proposes mitigation for impacts to stream channels and wetlands associated iMth the project at a 1:1 ratio by providing payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program for the restoration of 297 linear feet of stream channel, 1.705 acre of riparian wetlands, and 0.702 acre of non-riparian wetlands. No mitigation for impacts to open waters has been proposed. 2 Other Required Authorizations This notice and all applicable application materials are being forwarded to the appropriate State agencies for review. The Corps will generally not make a final permit decision until the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act (PL 92-500). The receipt of the application and this public notice in the NCDWQ Central Office in Raleigh serves as application to the NCDWQ for certification.

HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION BLOCK SHEETS BLOCK 18 - Nature of Activity The project involves the development of the Heritage Pines residential subdivision located on Carpenter-Upchurch Road in Cary, NC. As described further in Block 23, Phases 1 through 3 of the community have already been constructed, Phase 4 is near completion and Phase 5 is partially completed. Approval has been received for Phase 1 from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE; Action ID 199920303 / 199920557 / 199920558). The N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has approved impacts for the entire development (DWQ Project No. 99-0016). However, the approval from the USACE has not been given for Phase 2 through 5. The applicant is requesting approval for the entire development due to modifications made to the as built plans originally submitted for Phase 1 and the other phases. Please see Block 23 for additional information. The activities within Waters of the U.S. that have already occurred and/or otherwise requested within this application include the discharge of fill into wetlands, streams and other waters for the development of roads, utilities, recreational amenities (including the clubhouse, tennis courts, ponds, etc.) and residential lots. The only activities that have not yet occurred are the filling of wetlands for the development of Lots 70 and 71 (see Sheet 6A of the attached Impact Maps). These activities and the dimension of the structures are illustrated in the attached Impact Maps. The materials used included earthen fill to construct the base for the roads and residential lots. The roads have been constructed to local and N.C. Department of Transportation (DOT) standards. The roads have been paved and use curb and gutter to manage stormwater runoff. Paving materials include asphalt and concrete. Curb and gutter materials include concrete, metal drop inlets, reinforced concrete pipe and corrugated metal pipe. The stream and wetland crossing for Heritage Pines Drive was constructed using twin pre-cast concrete arch culverts (see Site Photos). The wetland crossing for Crystal Brook Lane used a single corrugated metal pipe (see Site Photos). The residential lots include both stick built single-family dwellings and townhome structures on concrete slabs with concrete driveways and walks. The materials used for the clubhouse and pool include a stick built clubhouse with an asphalt, curb and gutter parking lot and in ground concrete swimming pool. Other materials used in the tennis courts and walking trails include asphalt and treated timber retaining walls. Some slopes along the pond and adjacent to these structures have been stabilized with rock (rip-rap). See Site Photos for photographs of the clubhouse and tennis court adjacent to the main pond. Stormwater conveyances are constructed of reinforced concrete pipe, corrugated metal pipe and metal drop inlets. The typical stormwater outlet structure includes a concrete flared end, rock dissipater and possible sediment basin (see Site Photos for examples). HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION BLOCK SHEETS BLOCK 19 - Project Purpose Project Purpose: As stated on their website (see http://www.heritaizepinesnc.com/ ), Heritage Pines is a unique active adult country club community marketed to adults 55 years of age or older. Independent residential communities, such as Heritage Pines, are for seniors desiring a leisurely, hassle-free lifestyle. This community provides a clubhouse, swimming pool, tennis courts and paved walking trails and sidewalks. Residences range from approximately 1,500 sf to 2,900 sf and use low maintenance materials. The yards are also low maintenance in that they are a manageable size (single-family lot sizes range between approximately 0.15 and 0.2 acres) and landscaping services are available. This ' all provides for a close-knit community were the residents are able to easily walk to their neighbors and enjoy a safe, healthy and active lifestyle. The project purpose is to complete the development of such a community at the site. Project Need: Active adult living communities, such as Heritage Pines, are in great demand by seniors within Cary, Wake County and North Carolina. Resources for Seniors, Inc. (see ' http://www.resourcesforseniors.com/retcom.pdf ) lists only two active adult living communities within their retirement community list (updated April 2004) for Wake County. They include Troon at Kildaire and Heritage Pines. The U.S. Administration on Aging report A Profile of Older Americans: 2002 (see http://assets.aarp.orp-/rgcenter/ eg_neral/profile 2002.pdf ) states; that by 2030 the older population (persons 65 years or older) will more than double to more than 70 million ' people nation wide; North Carolina ranked within the top 20 states for percent increase in population 65+ from 1990 to 2000. Heritage Pines provides the type of community needed by this increasing older population. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION BLOCK SHEETS BLOCK 20 - Reasons for Discharge An interconnected street, sidewalk and walking path community design is essential in creating an active adult living community such as Heritage Pines. The need to cross over streams and buffers with roads is many times inevitable in developing such a design. However, Heritage Pines was designed to limit the number of stream and buffer crossings with roads to only two crossings. The main crossing (Heritage Pines Drive) was required to connect the western portion of the community (Phase 1, 2 & 3) to the eastern portion of the community (Phases 4 & 5). The stream bisects the property from North to South and as such there is no alternative than to cross it to connect the western and eastern portions of the property. Heritage Pines Drive also acts as a connection between Carpenter-Upchurch Road and Louis Stephens Drive. This allows for at least two points of access to the site from two separate road systems. This is essential for alleviating traffic congestion on a single road and provides for multiple points of ingress or egress in case of an emergency. This is especially important in a senior community such as Heritage Pines. The other road crossing (Crystal Brook Lane) of a stream occurred below the main pond. Without this crossing Knotts Valley Lane would have only had a single connect to Heritage Pines Drive (above the main pond). This crossing provides a second point of ingress or egress for the residents of Knotts Valley Lane. The design of this crossing was such that it attempted to minimize impacts to wetlands by crossing a section of the drainage that was primarily stream channel rather than stream channel and wetlands. The other road crossings of wetlands and waters located within the development were required to provided access to the entire property and an interconnected street and sidewalk system within the community as described above. The discharges to open waters associated with the two ponds located within the development were required to provide buildable areas for the clubhouse, tennis courts, walking paths, and residential homes. Discharges were also required for modifications made to the dam and outlet structures. Discharges to wetlands and channels to construct buildable areas for residential lots occurred and are proposed at the site. Maximizing the number of homes within the community while still avoided as much as practicable impacts to the major stream, wetland and buffer drainages on the site was important to supply the needed homes for Wake County's older population as described in Block 19 - Proposed Project Purpose.

These approvals have not been included within this application, but can be provided upon request. N.C. Division of Water Quality Compliance: The N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has approved impacts for the entire development (DWQ Project No. 99-0016). The approval was given after an extensive review by the DWQ between when the initial application was submitted in December 1998 until August 1999. A detailed description of the DWQ review as well as additional information regarding the USACE review is provided in the attached Prior Project History section of this application (see attached) including a timeline and supportive materials. Due to as built design changes and failure to obtain the USACE approval for Phases 2 through 5, the new developer is requesting approval of a water quality certification from the DWQ as part of this application.

On 7/9/97, Todd Tugwell of the USACE conducted an on site review and approval of the delineation. The delineation map may have been signed by the USACE. However, S&EC does not have a copy of the signed delineation map in our files. This delineation map was used in all previous applications and was also used in this after-the-fact application. S&EC Letter re: DWQ Buffer Determination (see attached) - The attached letter describes the Neuse River Buffer determinations performed by Mr. Danny Smith of the DWQ on November 5, 1997. S&EC does not have a copy of a DWQ on-site determination report for Mr. Smith's determinations. Please note that this letter does not address the two ponds or the channel located within the existing Phase 5 area and east of the main stream. Based on other DWQ correspondences provided within this application (including the final approval), it seems clear that these areas were determined to be exempt from the Neuse River Buffer. There is a pond shown in the southeast corner of the property on the USGS topographic map. We do not have confirmation that this pond was ever exempted by the DWQ. However, based on DWQ correspondence and approvals, it seems clear that that this pond was determined to be exempt from the Neuse Buffer Rule. Also, the wetland delineation does not indicate a pond in this location and if you examine the aerial photograph of the Wake County Soil Survey you will also see that this was a field and obviously a USGS mapping error. PCN Submitted by Applicant (Not S&EC) - S&EC did not submit the original ' application for this development. The DWQ was unable to locate the file at the time that this application was prepared and as such we cannot provide copies of the application or additional information that may exist within the file. Based on additional ' correspondences provided within this application, it appears that the original application was submitted to the DWQ on December 20, 1999 by Mr. Steve Prusik of SiteScapes Design Group, Inc. on behalf of the owner at the time, Mr. Michael Edwards. S&EC has HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PRIOR PROJECT HISTORY obtained a paper copy of the original impact map that was submitted along with the December 20, 1999 application. We do not have a digital or 8 %2 x 11 copy of this map and as such it was not submitted along with this application. However, a copy has been given to the DWQ and additional copies can be provided at your request. DWQ On Hold Letter (see attached) - The DWQ requested additional information from the applicant and Mr. Prusik in a letter dated February 22, 1999. USACE Approval (see attached) - The USACE approved the December 1998 application in a letter to the applicant dated February 25, 1999. This approval was only for Phase 1 of the development. This letter was mistakenly sent to my attention, most likely because of our initial involvement with the project. The authorized agent title above the attention line was "blacked-out" on the copy within our file. Although we do not have confirmation of this in the file, I assume that this mistake was corrected and that the letter was sent to the Mr. Prusik based on Mr. Prusik's letter to DWQ dated July 8, 1999. SiteScapes Letter to DWQ re: Project Summary (see attached) - Mr. Prusik sent a letter dated July 8, 1999 to DWQ summarizing the project and a site meeting with Mr. John Dorney of DWQ on July 6, 1999. This letter states that a revised master plan was prepared and delivered to DWQ on February 26 h, 1999 by Hugh J. Gilleece & Associates (the project engineer) indicating wetland and buffer impacts for the entire site. Notice of Violation from DWQ Raleigh Regional Office (see attached) - A notice of violation letter was issued to Mr. Edwards on July 21, 1999 from the DWQ Raleigh Regional Office. SiteScapes Letter to DWQ re: Restoration Plan (see attached) - Mr. Prusik sent a letter dated August 4, 1999 to DWQ describing a proposed restoration of wetlands between Lots 1 through 8 and references a plan submitted by Hugh J. Gilleece & Associates on August 2, 1999. S&EC does not have a copy of this plan and was unable to obtain a copy from the DWQ. This letter also states the owners to be Heritage Pines, LLC and the developer to be Mr. Mike Matheny. This is important to note because even though Heritage Pines LLC is still the current owner of the unsold portions of Heritage Pines, the developer has since changed to K. Hovnanian Homes. The current developer, K. Hovnanian Homes, has stated to us that they were not involved in these initial discussions with the agencies. DWQ Approval (see attached) & 6/23/1999 Final Site Plan (not attached) - The DWQ approved the use of GC 3101, 3103 and 3108 for the entire development (not just Phase 1) in a letter to the developer, Mr. Mike Methany, dated August 8, 1999. This letter was copied to the USACE, Division of Land Resources, Gilleece & Associates (the engineer) and Steve Prusik (the consultant). This letter also acted as the Authorization Certificate for impacts to the Neuse River Buffers. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PRIOR PROJECT HISTORY The letter lists five (5) items. Item 3 stated that wetlands shown as area 11, 7 and 8 shall not be impacted. The item did not require a revised impact map to be generated for approval. Area 11 (now impact area W9-Sheet6) has since been impacted and the applicant is proposing to continue work on the lots and mitigate for the loss of wetlands. It appears that areas 7 and 8 (and including 9; we believe that DWQ mistakenly either left out 9 or included 8 instead of 9) have not bee impacted. The applicant is requesting to impact this area (now impact area W 10-Sheet6A) within this new application. Item 4 required the 0.22 (acre) wetland area between lots 8 & 10 shall be restored as described in the August 11, 1999 letter from Site Scapes Design Group, Inc. S&EC does not have a copy of an Arst l la' letter from SiteScapes. We assume that this is referring to the August 4 letter, but we do not have confirmation of this. As stated above, we do not have a copy of the August 4c' plans submitted by Hugh J. Gilleece and associates. We evaluated this area in 2005 and it does not appear that this area has been restored (see site photos attached). Restoration of this area does not seem practicable given the adjacent homes. The applicant is now proposing to mitigate for the lost wetlands within this area. It should be noted that the DWQ did not require a stormwater management plan as a condition of the approval. Although the as built design of the development is different from what was originally approved, the general percent of built upon area and major stormwater discharge devices and locations have not changed from those originally proposed. As such, the new applicant is not proposing any additional stormwater management for the development. It should also be noted that no stream, wetland or buffer mitigation was required as a condition of the original approval. The applicant is proposing mitigation for the loss of wetlands and perennial streams because these areas were never approved by the USACE. However, the applicant requests that buffer mitigation not be required given that it was not previously required. It's also interesting to note that the area of buffer impact as well as the length of stream impact was not listed in the original approval letter. We do not have a digital or 8 %z x 11 copy of the approved 6/7/1999 final site plan / impact map and as such did not include a copy within this application. However, we have previously provided DWQ with a copy and can provide additional copies upon request. S&EC Letter to USACE re: Avoidance of Additional Impacts (see attached) - On behalf of the current developer we have submitted the attached March 18, 2005 letter to the USACE notifying them of the developers intention not to continue work within portions of Phase 5 of the development that previously contained jurisdictional waters. The developer has since gone one step further and has decided to put all work on hold within the area of Lots 175 to 195 southwest of Louis Stephens Drive until future notice. The applicant does intend to complete work within the remainder of Phase 5 including HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PRIOR PROJECT HISTORY Louis Stephens Drive and the lots northeast of Louis Stephens Drive (all located outside of areas that previously contained jurisdictional waters). USACE Letter re: violation (see attached) - The current developer was notified in writing by the USACE in a letter dated March 28, 2005 of the previous developer's failure to obtain USACE approval for Phase 2 through 5 of the development prior to discharging fill material into jurisdictional waters.

Hovnanian Homes of North Carolina, Inc., we are providing you notice of the owner's intent to stop additional work on a portion of the subdivision until the Individual Permit is approved by your office. The owner intends to stop work on all proposed residential lots within Phase 5 that are located in areas that previously contained jurisdictional wetlands or waters. The attached drawing shows the approved wetland delineation overlaid on the proposed Phase 5 lot layout. No additional work (except possible erosion and sediment control measures required to stabilize the site) will occur in the location of lots 176, 177, 180, 181, 182, 183, 184, 185 and 186. Also, no additional work will occur on the section of the proposed street that fronts lots 181 to 185. Work will continue on the remainder of Phase 5 in locations that did not previously contain wetlands or waters. We are currently working on the draft application for the Individual Permit and expect to have it ready for your review soon. It is the owner's intention to ensure full compliance with wetland regulations. Please call me if you would like to discuss.

I Regulatory Division Action ID. 200520456 DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY WILMINGTON DISTRICT, CORPS OF ENGINEERS PO BOX 1890 WILMINGTON NC 284024890 March 28, 2005 4?- .1939 VVA ?V PR - u 501 V Mr. Mark Miller K. Hovnanian Homes of North Carolina, Inc.. 3500 Regency Parkway, Suite F Cary, North Carolina 27511 Dear Mr. Miller: ' Please reference your permit application of February 14, 2005, for Department of the Army (DA) permit authorization for impacts associated with the extension of Louis Stephens Drive within Heritage Pines Subdivision, located east of Carpenter Upchurch Road, and south of Morrisville ' Parkway, in Cary, Wake County, North Carolina. The site is adjacent to an unnamed tributary of Crabtree Creek in the Neuse River Basin. Your application requested authorization for impacts to 256 linear feet of perennial stream channel and 0.484 acres of wetland. On February 22, 2005, Mr. Todd Tugwell with the Raleigh Regulatory Field Office attended a meeting on the site with Mr. Todd Preuninger with Soil & Environmental Consultants, ' Inc. to review the proposed work. Prior to the meeting, Mr. Tugwell determined that nationwide permit authorization had previously been provided to the former developer of the subdivision, Mr. J. Michael Edwards, for impacts totaling 0.913 acre of waters of the U.S. associated with Phase 1 of ' the subdivision. During the meeting, Mr. Tugwell discovered that you have already constructed several additional phases of the development, or are currently in progress. Based on maps obtained from Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc., it appears that the construction of roads, lot fill, and sewer lines required for the additional phases of the development have resulted in the loss of 0.956 ' acre of waters of the U.S. and approximately 180 linear feet of perennial stream channel, and temporary impacts to 0.1 acre of wetlands. These activities, conducted in waters of the United States without authorization by a DA permit, are a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act ' (33 U.S.C. 1311). We also received a letter dated March 18, 2005, submitted on your behalf by Mr. Bob ' Zarzecki with Soil & Environmental Consultants, Inc., which states that it is your intention to cease all on-going work in areas containing waters of the U.S. within unfinished portions of Phase 5 of the development. The letter stated that Soil &. Environmental Consultants, Inc. is currently preparing an after-the-fact individual permit application for the unauthorized activities. Please note that our acceptance of an after-the-fact permit application does not imply, by the Corps of Engineers or other agencies, either a favorable or an unfavorable opinion of the work performed. Please note that CERTIFIED MAIL ' RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED -2- while you pursue after-the-fact permit authorization for impacts associated with the development, we will suspend further enforcement actions pending the outcome of your permit request. Also, please be aware that your individual DA permit application will be evaluated in accordance with procedures established in a Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) between the DA and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), signed on February 6, 1990. The MOA clarifies the type and level of mitigation necessary to comply with the Clean Water Act Section 404(b)(1) Guidelines.. This MOA provides for first, avoiding impacts to waters and wetlands through the selection of the least damaging, practical alternative; second, taking appropriate and practical steps to minimize impacts on waters and wetlands; and finally, compensating for any remaining unavoidable impacts to the extent appropriate and practical. To comply with this MOA, you are required to provide the following information in support of your after-the-fact permit application: a. Permits for work within wetlands or other special aquatic sites are available only if the proposed work is the least environmentally damaging, practicable alternative. Your application must contain information regarding any other alternatives, both on and off site, to the work for which you have applied, and demonstrate that your selected plan is the least damaging to aquatic resources. b. It is necessary for you to have taken all appropriate and practical steps to minimize losses to waters of the U.S. Documentation submitted in support of your permit application must indicate. all that you have done; especially regarding the modification of plans and proposed construction techniques, to minimize adverse impacts (i.e., to reduce the discharge of fill material into waters of the United States as much as practicable). Your response should address alternate site designs, which may result in reduced- impacts to the aquatic environment. e. The MOA requires that appropriate and practical mitigation (e.g., restoration, enhancement, and/or preservation of wetlands and stream channels). will be required for all unavoidable adverse impacts remaining after all appropriate and practical minimization has been employed. Please note that mitigation may be required for all direct and indirect impacts that result in a degradation of the aquatic resources on site. Please submit your completed after-the-fact permit application to the Raleigh Regulatory Field Office no later than April 27, 2005. If additional time is required for restoration of the site or to prepare your permit application, you should contact my staff with a request for an extension of time, providing justification(s) for the delay. Please be reminded that no further work within wetlands or waters can occur on your property until this matter is resolved. Such work, without authorization by a DA permit, will be considered a willful and intentional violation of the Clean Water Act, and may result in referral of this matter to the U.S. Attorneys Office for appropriate action. -3- . With regard to the proposed constrUCtion:of Louis-Stephens Drive; we have determined that the proposed road is a separate thoroughfare . Therefore, ma *consider it as a separate project for the purposes ofDA permit requirements.: Since the road's construction will benefit the surrounding community and the 'Down of Cary will take over maintenance following its construction, it is necessary that the Town of Cary apply for these impacts separately. Accordingly, the Town of Cary can submit a applicationfor:the road before we resolve the violation at the subdivision.. We are forwarding a copy of this.letter to the Town of Cary so' that they may take appropriate action in this matter. Please contact Mr. Tugwell, at telephone (919) .876-844i, Extension 26, if you have any questions or comments. Sincerely, S. Kenneth Jolly.

HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION MITIGATION PLAN The applicant does not believe that on site mitigation is practicable beyond avoidance to any additional wetlands, streams and buffers. As such, the applicant proposes to make a payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund administered by the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). The applicant has not yet formally requested the acceptance for this payment from NCEEP. This request will be submitted as soon as the agencies have verified that the impacts listed within this application are correct, have provided guidance on the feasibility of these impacts being approved, have agreed upon the appropriate mitigation ratios, the applicant is both willing and able to make such payment, and NCEEP accepts the requested payment. If in the case that the applicant is neither willing nor able to make this payment once determined by the agencies or NCEEP is not willing to accept the payment, then the applicant will propose an alternative mitigation plan. At this time the applicant proposes to mitigate through payment into the Wetlands Restoration Fund for all permanent perennial stream impacts (297 feet), riparian (within 200 feet of a stream determined by DWQ to be subject to the Neuse River Buffer Rules) wetland impacts (1.705 acres), and non-riparian (greater than 200 feet of a stream determined by DWQ to be subject to the Neuse River Buffer Rules) wetland impacts (0.702 acres). At this time the applicant is proposing a 1:1 mitigation ratio for these impacts. No mitigation for impacts to Neuse River Buffers is currently proposed given that it was not required by the DWQ as a condition of there August 8, 1999 approval. However if buffer mitigation is determined to be required, then the applicant proposes payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund. No mitigation for impacts to open waters and other waters (excluding perennial streams and wetlands) is proposed. Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 297 Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): 58,064** Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 1.705 Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0.702 ** No buffer mitigation is currently proposed at this time as discussed above. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES In a document provided by the U.S. Corps of Engineers titled "Wetlands & Corps Wetland Regulations" and dated August 13, 2001, the Corps of Engineers lists 21 specific factors that will be reviewed related to Public Interest. These factors are similar to the "Evaluation Factors" listed on Page 8 of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Regulatory Program, Application Information document dated May 1985. These items are as follows: Conservation Water Quality Wetlands Flood Hazard Floodplain Value Land Use Recreation Safety Aesthetics Historic Properties Water Supply Navigation Energy Needs Mineral Needs Economics Fish & Wildlife Values Shore Erosion and Accretion Food & Fiber Production Environmental Concerns Property Ownership Needs and Welfare of the People Responses to each of the 21 Public Interest Issues are presented below. Conservation: No additional impacts are proposed to the remaining wetlands, streams and riparian buffers on the site beyond those that have already occurred or those proposed within this new application. Water Quality: The construction will meet all of the local, State and Federal design requirements with regards to protection of water quality. The two ponds on the property, while not designed to NCDENR stormwater requirements, are expected to provide some treatment (TSS, etc.) of stormwater runoff that enters them. Many of the other stormwater conveyances discharge to devises that provide some form of diffuse flow or dispersed flow prior through riparian areas prior to entering the streams. The surface waters on site are classified by the DWQ as "C, NSW". The development will comply with all DWQ water quality standards for class "C, NSW" waters. Wetlands: No additional impacts are proposed to the remaining wetlands on the site beyond those that have already occurred or those proposed within this new application. Wetland functions will therefore be retained within these areas. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES Flood Hazard: The site is located outside of any flood hazard areas as designated on the latest Flood Insurance Rate Maps (FIRM) issued to Wake County and incorporated communities in June 2004 (see hgp://www.ncfloodmaps.com/NewsArchives/wake prelims.htm ), therefore flooding is not of concern. The culverts below Heritage Pines Drive have been reviewed and approved by the local municipality to ensure the proper passage of any high water events. Floodplain Value: The site is located outside the 100-year floodplain, therefore there are no impacts to any existing FEMA designated floodplain areas. Other than the fill installed for Heritage Pines Drive, the remainder of the wetlands and riparian area on either side of the mainstream channel were not and will not be impacted. Floodplain functions will be retained within these areas. Land Use: The proposed development owned by Heritage Pines, LLC is being or has already been developed as a residential community. The surrounding properties are primarily residential and institutional (Wake County Schools). Recreation: No public or private recreational facilities will be affected by the development and operation of the facility. Heritage Pines offers many recreational activities (including swimming, tennis, walking trails, etc.) within the community. It's vicinity to the neighboring school provides easy access to the recreational facilities offered at the school. Safety: All entrances to the development along state roads are already installed and meet the standards of the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT). In addition to the NCDOT constraints imposed for the sake of safety, there are also constraints on the construction process by state law and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. Aesthetics: The applicant does not believe that Heritage Pines will negatively the affect aesthetics of the surrounding properties and many people may feel that this well landscaped community enhances the aesthetics of the area. HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES Historic Properties: The State Historic Preservation Office, North Carolina Listings in the National Register of Historic Places by County document provided on their web site (see http://www.hpo.dcr.state.nc.us/nrlist.htm) does not list any historic places within the property boundaries. The Carpenter Historic District is located about 0.8 miles north of the property and the Green Level Historic District is located about 2 miles west of the property. The applicant does not believe that either of these Historic Districts will be directly impacted by the development and may actually be enhanced in that people moving to the area may wish to promote the restoration and revitalization of these historic districts. The State Historic Preservation Office has not been contacted as of the date of this application. The applicant welcomes their review and comments. Water Supply: The site is not in a water supply watershed. The Town of Cary provides water to the development. The applicant does not believe that development of the site and the resulting water needs will not adversely affect any existing off-site water supplies. Navigation: The wetlands proposed to receive fill materials are not located in navigable waters. No impacts to navigation are anticipated as a result of site development. Energy Needs: Electrical energy for the development will be supplied by the local network as operated by Progress Energy. The development will not generate any of its own power and will not have energy needs in excess of normal residential development. Mineral Needs: Neither supply nor demand for mineral resources will be negatively affected by the development of this site. Economics: Heritage Pines provides an economical active adult living community for retirees living on fixed incomes. It is expected that these the new retirees and residents moving to the area will promote the local businesses and economy. 2 HERITAGE PINES SUBDIVISION PUBLIC INTEREST ISSUES Fish & Wildlife Values: The following species have been federally listed as Threatened or Endangered for Wake County: Common Name Scientific Name Status Bald Eagle Halieetus leucocephalus Threatened Red-cockaded woodpecker Picoides borealis Endangered Dwarf Wedgemussel Alasmidonta heterodon Endangered Michaux's Sumac Rhus michauxii Endangered Utilizing the N.C. Natural Heritage Program (NHP) database of all recorded protected species occurrences, S&EC found that there were no occurrences of a protected species with the project limits and no occurrences of the federally protected species listed above within a three mile radius of the project limits. No direct or secondary adverse impacts to federally listed species or exemplary natural communities are expected from the construction of the proposed subdivision. The two ponds located on the property and retained stream, wetland and riparian corridors are anticipated to provide habitat and wildlife corridors both within and through the community. Shore Erosion & Accretion: This public interest issue is not applicable to this application as the subdivision will not affect shore erosion or accretion. Food & Fiber Production: The Heritage Pines subdivision will produce neither food nor fiber as part of the facility operations. Environmental Concerns: Noise No adverse impacts to noise levels in the area are anticipated from the development of this site. It is anticipated that the older population and retirees that reside in the community (many of which do not work and spend much of their time within the community) will encourage noise levels from construction activities and post- construction activities to be maintained at an acceptable level. 3 Complete items 1, 2, and 3.
