4a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application:*
The property comprises an the existing Duke Energy Buies Creek substation and existing Harris Plant - Erwin 230kV transmission lines. A portion of the property is currently
undeveloped. ESI completed a wetland and waters of the US delineation in early 2019. Land use in the vicinity is primarily rural with some agriculture and single-family homes nearby.

4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
1.1
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
0
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
The Harris Plant - Erwin 230kV transmission line has no sectionaliang point between Erwin and the Angier tap. The Buies Creek substation is located between these two points.
Outages within this section of transmission line result in large customer outage events. As a result, Duke Energy needs to install a switch at the Buies Creek tap, which would result in
lower customer outage events as well as making maintenance on the transmission line easier. To install the switch a potentially jurisdictional ditch needs to be crossed by installing a
culvert. Duke Energy has attempted to minimize the impacts to WOTUS by accessing the switch location through company owned property as opposed to Leslie Campbell Rd (Hwy NC -
27) which would result in an impact both to a wetland and the potentially jurisdictional ditch.
41. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*
Duke Energy needs to install a new switch mechanism as described in Section 4h. To accomplish this they will need to cross a potentially jurisdictional ditch/wetland swale with an
access road. This will involve placing a reinforced concrete pipe in the ditch bottom to maintain hydrologic connectivity. The crossing will impact approximately SF of potentially
jurisdictional ditch. Typical construction equipment will be used including dump trucks, excavators, graders, etc.
4j. Please upload project drawings for the proposed project.

Jurisdictional ditch scored <19 but appears to be an old channelized intermittent stream as seen in the soil survey. Ditch is thickly vegetated but
conveys water to downstream wetland.
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization

1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Duke has designed the project so that it will avoid potential impacts to larger wetland areas that were delineated by ESI during our initial assessment.
The current alignment for the access road crosses a ditch/wetland swale and impacts have been minimized as much as possible given the
requirements for the crossing itself.
1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
If wetlands need to be crossed as part of the construction activities then Duke will use matting to prevent ground disturbance. All required BMPs will be
employed for the duration of the construction. An approved Erosion Control Plan will be in place prior to any land disturbance.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State
2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
C Yes r No
2b. If this project DOES NOT require Compensatory Mitigation, explain why:
The amount of impact proposed for the access road crossing does not trigger the compensatory mitigation threshold under MNP 12.
F. Stormwater Management and Diffuse Flow Plan (required by DWR)
1. Diffuse Flow Plan
1a. Does the project include or is it adjacent to protected riparian buffers identified within one of the NC Riparian Buffer Protection Rules?
r Yes r No
If no, explain why:
The project is located in the Cape Fear basin and no regulated riparian buffer apply to the study area.
2. Stormwater Management Plan
2a. Is this a NCDOT project subject to compliance with NCDOTs Individual NPDES permit NCS000250?*
C Yes O No
2b. Does this project meet the requirements for low density projects as defined in 15A NCAC 02H .1003(2)?
O Yes C No
Comments:
Harnett County is a Phase II county and an ESC plan and a storm water plan are required to be submitted and approved prior to any land disturbance.
G. Supplementary Information
1. Environmental Documentation
1a. Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state/local) funds or the use of public (federal/state) land?*
r Yes r No
2. Violations (DWR Requirement)
2a. Is the site in violation of DWR Water Quality Certification Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500), Isolated Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .1300), or DWR Surface Water or Wetland Standards or
Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B.0200)?*
r Yes r No
3. Cumulative Impacts (DWR Requirement)
3a. Will this project result in additional development, which could impact nearby downstream water quality? *
C Yes C No
3b. If you answered "no," provide a short narrative description.
The installation of the proposed switch will only serve to prevent excessive power outages to customers served by the Buies Creek substation.
