Box 1890 ~~~nM~ D Wilmington, NC 28402-1890 p u V RE: Helmsdale at Landfall; response to agency comments ~~N ~; ~:Q06 Wilmington; New Hanover County, NC ~~ u~~~ ~ wA~r~~ nu~H Dear Jennifer: ~~'~ ~ ~ Thank you for your letter dated May 12, 2006 in which you provide comments received during the Public Notice period for the Helmsdale at Landfall Individual Permit application. Comments were received from the North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. In addition, we received comments from the Division of Water Quality and the Division of Coastal Management separately. This letter addresses all agency comments. NC Department of Cultural Resources (State Historic Preservation Office) We recommend that an archaeological survey be conducted within the project area to identify and evaluate potentially significant sites prior to initiation of the subdivision facilities (e.g. roads, utilities). If significant sites are identified, appropriate measures can then be taken to minimize adverse impacts. A site inspection by an Office of State Archaeology archaeologist identified key areas where archaeological testing should be concentrated. We will be pleased to assist you in the development and review of any scopes of work, proposals, or other documents relating to this matter. Mr. Nathan Henry of the Office of State Archaeology has been contacted regarding his comments. The applicant is in the process of obtaining a professional archaeologist to work with Mr. Henry to identify and evaluate potentially significant areas within the site. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service 1. The Service has considered the wetland bridging alternative presented in the PN. The four wetland bridges, built to NCDOT standards, would cost $250, 000 each and the two driveways would cost $125, 000 each, for an overall cost of $1, 250, 000. These costs seem high and the Corps should verify that the cost estimates are for residential roads which would not carry the same heavy vehicles as standard state roads. The residential roads within this tract must conform to the City of Wilmington standards, which are very similar to DOT standards. The design and, therefore, estimate took into consideration the local road requirements. The estimate was received from Contech Construction Products, Inc, a company that specializes in the construction of bridges. 2. If streams and wetlands are crossed without bridging, culverts would be expected to convey water. Culverts should maintain natural water flows and hydraulic regimes without scouring, or impeding fish and wildlife passage. Culverts or pipes should be of sufficient size to allow normal surface water exchange between the wetlands above and below the culvert. The Service recommends that streams and wetlands be crossed by a series of buried, box culverts which extends across the entire wetland area and include a portion of each adjacent upland margin. The applicant has revised the site plan and now proposes crossing the stream by using a bottomless culvert to eliminate stream impacts. Furthermore, the applicant will bridge the entire span of wetlands at crossing #4. This crossing was selected because it is one of the wider crossings and connects to the greatest extent of wetland fingers on the site. Bridging this crossing would reduce wetland impacts by 0.088 acre and maintain a complete connection to a relatively large wetland system. Because of economic considerations the applicant still proposes to utilize culverts at the remaining crossings. However, total impacts have been reduced from 0.295 acre of wetlands and 72 LF of stream to 0.207 acre of wetlands and no stream impacts. 3. The Service has concerns about the wetland compensation plan. While the preservation of 38.25 acres of wetlands is desirable, there should be a discussion of the type(s) of wetland communities, current condition of these wetlands, the nature of the conservation easement, and the easement holder. Wetlands to be preserved should be of high quality. If these areas have been degraded by drainage or vegetation removal, there are opportunities for enhancement. If the areas are undisturbed, the conservation easement should include all the prohibited and restrictive activities given in article II of the Corps' model conservation easement. Wetlands to be preserved on site consist mostly of riparian wetland fingers that drain into a tributary of Howe Creek. The off-site wetland preservation areas contain a mix of freshwater and tidally influenced wetlands that are directly adjacent to Howe Creek. In addition, an area of uplands located on site that contains mature longleaf pine habitat will be preserved (see enclosed photos). The applicant will .preserve these wetlands and uplands using restrictive covenants and will follow the standard Corps language for preservation. The applicant is currently in the process of preparing these covenants. 4. If wetland creation would be combined with preservation, the Service recommends that such creation should occur at a ratio of at least 1. S-to-one and that the creation site have natural 2 hydrology which can be maintained without artificial controls. The plan should describe the target wetland vegetation community and note whether vegetation would be planted or recruited from a nearby area. There should be a statement of the prohibited activities within the created wetlands and the entity responsible for ensuring perpetual conservation of the area. The applicant may wish to consider purchasing wetland restoration credits from an established mitigation bank near the site. Since the Individual Permit application was submitted, we have determined that the original area designated for mitigation would not be suitable for wetland creation. We then evaluated on- site creation options, including the upland area located between the passive common .area (wetlands) and the proposed road in the southeastern part of the tract. However, this area supports a small yet mature longleaf pine habitat (see enclosed pictures). Although no red- cockaded woodpecker cavities were observed, the area appears to be a healthy, functioning upland community. Instead of converting this area into wetlands, which would require eliminating the existing vegetation, the applicant prefers to preserve the area as an upland buffer. Most of the other wetland areas within the site consist of drainage features with significant topographic breaks and performing wetland creation adjacent to these areas would be difficult to do successfully. Therefore, the applicant proposes to buy into the Ecosystem Enhancement Program for the restoration of 0.25 acre of riparian wetlands, preserve all remaining wetlands within the site (8.98 acres) and within two other Landfall tracts (37.61 acres) and preserve 0.176 acre of uplands on site. Division of Water Quality 1. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Based on the economic analysis provided, it appears that it is economically feasible to utilize bridges for the proposed wetland and stream crossings or to minimize the number of lots to 32 versus 48. It also appears that the amount provided as the average sale price per lot is not current. Comparables in the area recently sold for as much as $293, 000. Even if we use $250, 000, the return on your investment for the development and sale of 32 lots at the subject site would be approximately 58%, and the development and sale of 48 lots, if the bridges were constructed based on the proposal provided, would result in a 94% return on investment. This appears to be a fair and reasonable return in the current real estate market. Based on this information, all impacts can be reasonably avoided and a practical alternative does exist on- site. This office strongly recommends that you revise the site plan to avoid some if not all of the proposed impacts. The applicant has revised the site plan and now proposes crossing the stream by using a bottomless culvert to eliminate stream impacts. Furthermore, the applicant will bridge the entire span of wetlands at crossing #4. This crossing was selected because it is one of the wider crossings and connects to the greatest extent of wetland fingers on the site. Bridging this crossing would reduce wetland impacts by 0.088 acre and maintain a complete connection to a relatively large wetland system. Because of economic considerations the applicant still proposes to utilize culverts at the remaining crossings. However, total impacts have been reduced from 0.295 acre of wetlands and 72 LF of stream to 0.207 acre of wetlands and no stream impacts. 3 2. Signature Authority Please note that the applicant must be an official member of the LLC (Smith, Rawl, or Parker). Mr. Moore has signed the agent authorization form as an agent, but he is not the listed registered agent and not a listed member of the LLC. Please have the appropriate person sign Land Management Group, Inc. authorization form or the Individual Permit application form. Enclosed is an agent authorization form signed by Mr. Tim Smith. 3. Jurisdictional Determination Map Please provide a copy of the jurisdictional determination map. Please make sure the wetlands on Lot 25 have been included on the final signed map. Enclosed is the wetland survey for Lot 25. The survey is being sent to Jennifer Frye for her final approval. 4. Plan Details The cross-section details provided do not show the culverts. If you decide to move forward with the project as proposed, despite DWQ's objections, please make sure that surveyed cross- sections depicting the culverts placed below grade (20% or 12 ", whichever is less) to allow for the passage of aquatic life. Attached is a revised cross section that shows a culvert. 5. Mitigation Please provide a more detailed conceptual mitigation and monitoring plan including stream mitigation at a minimum ratio of 1: 1. Please also provide a draft copy of the proposed conservation easement/preservation language. Since the Individual Permit application was submitted, we have determined that the original area designated for mitigation would not be suitable for wetland creation. We then evaluated on- site creation options, including the upland area located between the passive common area (wetlands) and the proposed road in the southeastern part of the tract. However, this area supports a small yet mature longleaf pine habitat (see enclosed pictures). Although no red- cockaded woodpecker cavities were observed, the area appears to be a healthy, functioning upland community. Instead of converting this area into wetlands, which would require eliminating the existing canopy, the applicant prefers to preserve the area as an upland buffer. Most of the other wetland areas within the site consist of drainage features with significant topographic breaks and performing wetland creation adjacent to these areas would be difficult to do successfully. Therefore, the applicant proposes to buy into the Ecosystem Enhancement Program for the restoration of 0.25 acre of riparian wetlands, preserve all remaining wetlands within the site (8.98 acres) and within two other Landfall tracts (37.61 acres) and preserve 0.176 acre of uplands on site. 4 Division of Coastal Management (Consistenc~Review~ ' The consistency submission letter does not document how the proposed project utilized proper site selection and design criteria to minimize adverse impacts; it merely asserts that the impacts have to be allowed to lessen the economic burden to the developer, not to protect the resources at risk. As stated in the Alternatives Analysis, the proposed project v<=ould be an expansion of the existing Landfall Subdivision. According to its regulations, Landfall can only annex those tracts of land that have their sole access from Landfall. Based on these rules, the off-site alternatives evaluated were adjacent, undeveloped tracts without alternate access. Only one other tract meeting these criteria was located. However, the owners of that tract were not interested in selling the property. Two on-site alternatives were also evaluated. The first option was an alternate roadway pattern that would stop before crossing any wetlands. This alternative would develop sixteen fewer lots than the preferred alternative, which would be a loss of approximately $2,786,000 dollars. Because of this financial loss, this site plan is not considered a viable alternative. The second on-site alternative is developing uplands within the entire site by bridging all of the wetland crossings. Four bridges would need to be constructed to NC DOT standards, which would cost approximately $1,000,000 total. In addition, two smaller bridges would be needed for driveway crossings in Lots #10 and #18, which would cost approximately $250,000. Based on comments received from the agencies, the applicant has redesigned the site plan and will utilize a bottomless culvert to cross the stream, thereby eliminating stream impacts. In addition, road crossing #4 will utilize a bridge to eliminate wetland impacts at this crossing. This site plan modification will reduce wetland impacts by 0.088 acre and will avoid all stream impacts. Additionally, the consistency certification submission does not disclose what measures, pursuant to 1 SA NCAC 07M. 0800, have been taken to "control development so as to eliminate harmful runoff which may impact the sounds and rivers of the coastal area and the adoption of best management practices to control runoff from undeveloped lands is necessary to prevent the deterioration of coastal waters ". Potential impacts to wetlands and water quality from erosion and stormwater runoff will be minimized by the development and implementation of a Stormwater Plan and a Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan. This project will be low density and will follow all required low- density stormwater measures. .....there is no affirmative evaluation demonstrating how the proposed project would be consistent with the New Hanover County land-use plan. The site is zoned R-20 and the proposed development is consistent with this zoning. The project has received local subdivision approval and is awaiting City zoning approval. The New Hanover County Land Use Plan classifies a majority of the site as a Watershed Resource Protection Area. The land located along the northwestern property boundary (UT of Howe Creek) is classified as Conservation. 5 Watershed Resource Protection: "This subclass occurs along the tidal creeks and is defined as the area within'/z mile of the 100-year floodplain for those creeks. The impact that the resources is being protected from is pollutant laden stormwater runoff from impervious surfaces within the watershed. The protection strategies for this subclass of resource protection area focus on minimizing new impervious surface, retrofitting protection measures to improve water quality of runoff from existing impervious surfaces and to promote low impact best management practices for development and redevelopment. The proposed development will be low-density and therefore conforms to this land classification. Conservation: "Generally, estuarine areas of environmental concern (AFC's} as defined by the State of North Carolina and adjacent Lands within the 100-year floodplain have been classified as Conservation. Conservation areas should be preserved in their natural state. Exceptions to this standard are limited to water-dependent uses, shared industrial access corridors, and those exceptional development proposals which are sensitively designed so as to effectively preserve the natural functions of the site. In no case, with the exception of the Wilmington National Register Historic District, shall residential density in the Conservation class be permitted to exceed 2.5 units per acre or greater than 25% impervious surface coverage, regardless of the existence of public urban services." No disturbance to wetlands is proposed except far road crossings. No wetlands along the main UT will be disturbed and all remaining wetlands will be preserved in perpetuity through restrictive covenants. Furthermore, the project will conform to the classification's density requirements. Please provide a final mitigation plan, sample deed restriction, and graphic displaying the wetlands to be protected. Since the Individual Fermit application was submitted, we have determined that the original area designated for mitigation would not be suitable for wetland creation. We then evaluated on- site creation options, including the upland area located between the passive common area (wetlands] and the proposed road in the southeastern part of the tract. However, this area supports a small yet mature longleaf pine habitat (see enclosed pictures). Although no red- cockaded woodpecker cavities were observed, the area appears to be a healthy, functioning upland community. Instead of converting this area into wetlands, which would require eliminating the existing canopy, the applicant prefers to preserve the area as an upland buffer. Most of the other wetland areas within the site consist of drainage features with significant topographic breaks and performing wetland creation adjacent to these areas would be difficult to do successfully. Therefore, the applicant proposes to buy into the Ecosystem Enhancement Program for the restoration of 0.25 acre of riparian wetlands, preserve all remaining wetlands within the site (8.98 acres) and within two other Landfall tracts (37.61 acres) and preserve 0.176 acre of uplands on site. 6 Wetlands will be preserved through the subdivision's restrictive covenants and will include the Corp's language regarding preservation. The applicant is currently in the process of preparing these covenants. Based on the proximity of the project site to an unnamed tributary of Howe Creek there is a potential that some project elements may be within an Area of Environmental Concern (AEC) ...... The section of the unnamed tributary of Howe Creek that forms the western boundary of the site is a stream but does not have any tidal flow. Therefore, no estuarine AEC is located within the property. I hope this response adequately addresses agency concerns. Please let me know if you need any additional information.
