Dear Mr. Howell:
Subject: Proposed Fill in Wetlands or Waters
Paddington Station Development
Wake County
DEM Project # 92746
Upon review of your request for Water Quality Certification
to place fill material in 0.52 acres of wetlands or waters in a
tributary of Marsh Creek for commercial development located at
New Hope Church in Wake County, we have determined that the
proposed fill can be covered by General Water Quality
Certification No. 2671 issued January 21, 1992. A copy of the
General Certification is attached. This Certification may be
used in qualifying for coverage under Corps of Engineers'
Nationwide Permit No. 26. An additional condition is that a
permanent stormwater pond must be built to control stormwater
runoff from the property. DEM must approve this plan in writing
before construction.
If you have any questions, please contact John Dorney at
919/733-1786.
Sincerely,

Subject: Paddington Station
comments: site 1) -see wetland rating worksheet- Mixed hardwood bottom.
Predominant overstory canopy is sweetgum (L_ iquidambar styraciflua), red maple (Acer
rubrum), Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda). The wetland located at this site are low value.
The predominant wetland habitat is associated with the stream bank of an unnamed
tributary of Marsh Creek.
The rating worksheet for the only vegetated wetland, scored very low for water
storage and pollutant removal. This small site is upstream from from an old dam that
has long since been breached.
Although small, the most interesting wetland type was a small seepage that
likely provides habitat for several species of invertebrates and amphibians (site not
rated).
It "i portant to understand that the tract of land being developed is a total of 37
acres an .5 acres of that is jurisdictional wetlands. After reviewing the preliminary
grading plap? it is unclear to me how this facility plans to handle water from rain
events. I recommend that a permit condition should included storm water
management requirements. I do not feel that this small tributary could appropriately,
handle run off from the proposed building and parking lot.

Dear Mr. Dorney : gup
ION
The purpose.of_this letter is to request a Section 4201, Water
Quality Certification for'the project to be known as the
Paddington Station. The -property is located west of' Seaboard
Railroad, east of the end of Forest Ridge, south of Craftsman
Drive and north of New Hope Church Road `in Raleigh as`shown
on the enclosed plans. The only jurisdictional areas`on 'site'
are adjacent'to an unnamed tributary of Marsh Creek along the
northern property line. The only vegetated wetland area `i's
upstream of an old pond dam that has long since been
breached The area may have 'not been a wetland prior to dam
construction since areas downstream contain only a,channel
with no adjacent wetlands.
The wetland delineation is shown oft the attached map. These
delineations-were 'reviewed by Mr. Eric Alsmeyer'of the US
Army Corps of Engineers. Even though it is 'not required, we
are notifying the Corps of this project. Impacts are,-,,,,
necessary-due to the parking requirements for the proposed
shopping center. Dan Simmons of McKim and Creed has informed
me that the current design contains the minimum` parking
required by the city of Raleigh;
'
Fill in the Waters of the US on-site will be required-to
utilize the property for a commercial development. It will
be necessary to, fill .52 acres (see map) of jurisdictional
Waters of the US above headwaters-;for-placement of the -
proposed facilities.
Data forms completed on-site which describe soils, vegetation
and hydrology are included.
