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 ofthe 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 ofthe 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 ofthe 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

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 ifthe
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, providingjustification(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 ofDA 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 ofCary 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.
Sincerely,

Cary, Wake County, North Carolina m ~ @ ~ OW~ @
FEB 1 4 2005
Dear Ms. Karoly and Mr. Tugwell:
DENR - WATEH QUALITY
. .. i\ 'ETW IDS AND STOR//'WA TER BRAI'CH
On behalf ofK. Hovnaman Homes, Inc., we hereby request authonzahon to use ·
Nationwide Permit 14 to cover impacts to jurisdictional wetlands and streams for the
Louis Stephens Drive highway connection. We also request 401 Certification and buffer
compliance from the NC-DWQ. A Pre-construction Notification Form is attached.
The proposed stream crossing and roadway connection are located south of Morrisville
Parkway at its intersection with Louis Stephens Drive (see attached USGS site vicinity
map).
The proposed impacts consist of 256-linear feet of perenniaUimportant stream
channel, 0.484 acres of wetland, and 16,695 s.f. of riparian buffer (Zl: 10,713, Z2:
5,982). An additional O.04-acre of temporary wetland impact is proposed for the
construction of a diversion ditch to redirect water so that the work can be conducted in
the 'dry'. Following construction of the stream crossing, the temporarily impacted areas
will be returned to preconstruction contours and reseeded.
Although this roadway is being constructed in the vicinity of a previously permitted_
subdivision (Heritage Pines), the proposed roadway will serve as a thoroughfare/collector
road for traffic in the surrounding area and not just within the subdivision. Therefore we
believe this should be considered a separate project from the adjacent subdivision.
Moreover, this segment of roadway will connect two existing portions of the road at the
northern and southern property lines.

Because impacts are greater than 150 linear feet and greater 0.1 acres the applicant
proposes payment to" the NC-EEP to satisfy mitigation requirements. We have attached
our mitigation request to EEP for your review. Because the wetland is low quality (i.e.
mainly herbaceous species such as Juncus) we propose payment at a 1: 1 ratio for wetland
impacts and a 2: 1 ratio for stream impacts. The applicant also proposes payment to the
NC-EEP for buffer mitigation.
The proposed buffer impacts associated with the utility line construction are not
perpendicular; however the impacts are necessary because the proposed utility line must
tie into an existing utility easement that is situated within the riparian buffer. Although
the impacts are not perpendicular, we do not believe mitigation should be required
because there has not been a change of use (Le. the existing buffer is a grassed utility
casemcnt and will rcmain as such).
Please contact S&EC at (919) 846-5900 if you have any questions, require additional
information, or would like to schedule a site visit.

VII. Impact Justification <Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe mcasures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, acccssibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the dcsired site plan was developcd. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followcd during construction to reduce impacts.
The proposed impacts are necessary to complcte the final section of roadway for a planned
thoroughfare (Louis Stcphens Drive) for the Town of Cary. S&EC delincated the wetland areas
in the vicinity of the roadway alignment in January. 2005. The project consists of temporary and
permanent impacts resulting from road construction. Temporary wetland impacts are need cd to
construct a divcrsion ditch to redirect water from the stream while installing the culvert and
constructing the stream crossing. Following construction of the stream crossing. the temporarily
impacted arcas will be returned to preconstruction contours and reseeded.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to pcrennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to cnsure that advcrse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in detern1ining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable includc,
but are not limitcd to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegctated buffers to protcct open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and valucs by crcating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
Page 5 of8
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attachcd in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complcte for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall bc placed on hold as
incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration
in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strm gide. htm I.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach dircctions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, cnhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
prescrvation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposcd method of construction. Pleasc attach
a separate shect if more space is ncedcd.
The project area is located between two existing sections of Louis Stephcns Drive in Cary.
NC (Carpenter area). The stream affectcd by this impact is a UT of Crabtree Creek and
carrics a surface freshwater classification of C:NSW. An application has been sent to NC-
EEP for mitigation requcst. We will provide a copy of the acceptance letter once approval is
granted. The wetland area that will be impacted during this projcct is a beavcr impoundment
consisting mainly of Juncus sp. and hcrbaceous emcrgent wetland vegetation. Beaver activity
has deforested the area within the wetland and eliminated the forest canopy. Duc to the
lower-quality of this wetland area. we are rcquesting 1:1 mitigation for wetland impacts.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at
(919) 733-5208 to determine availability and to rcquest written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h20.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, pI case check the appropriate box on page three and provide the
following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 512
Amount ofbuffcr mitigation requested (square feet): 41.112
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0.5
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public (fcderal/state) funds or the use of public
(federal/state) land?
Yes 0 No ~
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Page 6 of8
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEP AlSEP A document is required, call the SEP A
coordinator at (919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Y cs D No D
If yes, has the document review bccn finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, plcase attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes D No D
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and \Vatershed Buffers (required by D\VQ)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. Thc applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed hcrein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Rcgional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers idcntified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please idcntify )?
Yes ~ No D If you answercd "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying thc buffer
multipliers.

Total 16,695 41,112
*
Zone I extends out 30 fect pcrpendieuiar from near bank of channel; Zonc 2 extends an
additional 20 feet from thc edgc of Zonc I.
If buffer mitigation is rcquired, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (Lc., Donation
of Property, Conscrvation Eascment, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Paymcnt into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0260.
We propose payment to the Riparian Buffer Rcstoration Fund to cover the cost of riparian buffcr
mitigation. Please be aware that buffer impacts associated with the utility line construction are
not perpendicular: however the impacts are only nccessary bccause the proposed utility line must
tie into an existing utility easement that is situatcd within the riparian buffer. Because the
cxisting use is a grassed scwcr casement wc do not believe mitigation should be rcquircd for the
utility line impacts.
Page 7 of8
XI. Stormwater (rcquired by D'VQ)
Describe impervious acrcage (both existing and propos cd) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in ordcr to protect surface waters and wctlands
downstrcam from the property,
The site currently has two existing level sprcadcrs constructed by the Town of Cary at the end of
their construction zone (see attached map). This project proposes the construction of an
additional level sprcader as shown on the attached drawings. We have provided the Icvel
spreader calculations as an attachmcnt.
XII. Sewagc Disposal (required by DWQ)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatmcnt methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater gencrated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
N/A
XIII. Violations (requircd by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes D No ~
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Y cs D No ~
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangcred and
Threatened Specics, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
None
