After reviewing your application, we have determined that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Numbers 3374 and 3402, which can be viewed on our web site at http:/ih2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. These Certifications allow you to use Nationwide Permit Numbers 12 and 39 respectively when they are issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. In addition, you should secure any other applicable federal, state or local permits before you proceed with your project, including (but not limited to) those required by Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge, and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also, this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 permits expire unless otherwise specified in the General Certifications. This approval is valid only for the purpose and design that you have described in your application. If you change your project, you must notify us in writing, and you may be required to send us a new application for a new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of these Certifications and approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total wetland fill for this project (now or in the future) exceeds one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached Certifications, as well as the additional conditions listed below: 1. The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all other specific and general conditions of this Certification are met. No other impacts, including incidental impacts, are approved: Amount Approved Plan Location or Reference Streams 148 linear feet Two unnamed tributaries to Oak Hollow Lake located near Barrow Road, High Point, Guilford County.

Appropriate sediment and erosion control measures which equal or exceed those outlined in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual or the North Carolina Surface Mining Manual (available from the Division of Land Resources at NCDENR regional offices or the central office), whichever is more appropriate, shall be designed, installed and maintained properly to assure compliance at all times with the North Carolina water quality standards that are applicable to Class WS-IV waters as described in 15A NCAC 02B .0216 Fresh Surface Water Quality Standards For Class WS-IV Waters. Such measures must equal or exceed the requirements specified in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. These measures must be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) sites, including contractor owned and leased borrow pits, which are associated with this project. 3. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the maximum extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control measures in wetlands or waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within six months of the date that the project is completed or, if applicable, within six months of the date that the project is released by the North Carolina Division of Land Resources. 4. No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the Pre-Construction Notification. All construction activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of sediment and erosion control "Best Management Practices" shall be performed so that no violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur. 5. The culvert required for this project shall be installed in such a manner that the original stream profile is not altered (i.e. the depth of the channel must not be reduced by a widening of the streambed). Existing stream dimensions (including the pattern and profile) are to be maintained above and below the location of the culvert. The culvert shall be designed and installed to prevent head cutting of the stream. If the culvert becomes perched, the appropriate stream grade shall be re-established or, if the culvert is installed in a perched manner, the culvert shall be removed and re-installed correctly. The Applicant must submit a plan and receive written approval from this Office to address any head cutting that will occur as a result of this project (e.g., use of cross vanes downstream of the culvert). 6. Where riprap is required for energy dissipation and scour protection, it shall be limited to the minimum dimensions specified by appropriate engineering calculations. Riprap may only be used below the normal high water level. The original grade and elevation of the stream's cross-section must be maintained. Riprap placed in the stream bottom must be inserted into the bottom matrix to a depth sufficient to provide the thickness of riprap required for scour protection. The elevation of the stream bottom must not be increased by the placement of riprap. Placement of riprap must not result in destabilization of the streambed or banks upstream or downstream. 7. Energy dissipation and sheet flow must be provided for all discharges of stormwater before such discharges reach stream channels or wetlands. 8. The proposed project must comply with the local water supply and stormwater management ordinances of Guilford County and the City of High Point as approved by the N. C. Environmental Management Commission. Mr. Jeffrey Guemier Page 3, August 5, 2005 9. All construction activities associated with this project shall minimize built-upon surface area, direct stormwater runoff away from surface waters, and incorporate best management practices to minimize water quality impacts. If concrete is used with any fill material, it shall not be allowed to come in contact with surface waters until it has cured. If any stormwater must be collected for discharge into a stream channel, it shall not enter the stream as a point source, but shall be slowed and discharged as sheet flow prior to entering the riparian buffer on either side of the stream. 10. Upon completion of the project, the Applicant shall complete and return the enclosed "Certificate of Completion" form to notify NCDWQ when all work included in the §401 Certification has been finished. This certificate should be sent to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the NC Division of Water Quality at the address listed on the form. Along with the Certificate of Completion form, please send photographs upstream and downstream of the culvert site and utility line crossing to document correct installation. If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing. This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act.

The applicant is Jeff Guernier with Parker & Orleans Homebuilders. A signed agent authorization accompanies the enclosed preconstruction authorization. As proposed, Walnut Creek will result in the construction of 200 single-family homes. The subject property, approximately 74-acres in size, is located west of Barrow Road across the street from SW Guilford High School. The approximate property boundaries are shown on the attached USGS Topo Quad vicinity map. Surface waters on the property flow to Oak Hollow Lake in the Randleman Lake watershed/Cape Fear river basin. The applicant proposes permanent impacts of 148 linear feet of stream channel for construction of the project. Of the proposed stream impacts, 133 linear feet are proposed to a perennial stream for a road crossing. The additional 15 linear feet of stream impact is requested for temporary impacts for sewer construction. Both uses are exempt under the Randleman Lake watershed buffer rules. Andrea Wade (USACE) has reviewed stream and wetland features on the property. Approximately 0.04 acres of wetlands (1174sf and 548sf) were previously impacted. Those impact acreages were below notification thresholds. No other impacts are proposed for the project. The project will follow local stormwater requirements. The enclosed site plan has been approved by the City of High Point. Enclosed with the completed PCN are proposed impervious calculations from the project engineer. Attached please find: 1) A completed Pre-construction Notification 2) signed Agent Authorization Form, 3) USGS topo quad vicinity map, 4) Guilford County Soil Survey map, 5) Construction plans, 6) Engineer's impervious calculations, 7) Wetland data forms, and 8) 401 processing fee.

Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, 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 desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. S&EC has met with Andrea Wade of the USACE regarding impacts. Impacts to perennial streams are less than 1501f and perpendicular. Previous impacts to wetlands (.04 acres). Proposed stream impacts for sewer construction (temporary) will follow NW 12 general certifications. 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 perennial 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 ensure that adverse 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 determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. Page 9 of 12 If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be 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/ncwetiands/strmgide.html. 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 directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. Proposed permanent impacts to perennial streams will be 1331£ Fifteen if of temporary impact to perennial stream for sewer crossing. Previous wetland impacts of 0.04 acres. Applicant contends avoidance of perennial stream and Water Supply/Randleman buffers serve as mitigation for proposed impacts. USACE rep Andrea Wade has visited site and reviewed stream/wetland features. 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 request 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://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the following information: Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 0 Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): 0 Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0 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 (federal/state) funds or the use of public (federal/state) land? Yes ? 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)?

The applicant is Jeff Guernier with Parker & Orleans Homebuilders. A signed agent authorization accompanies the enclosed preconstruction authorization. As proposed, Walnut Creek will result in the construction of 200 single-family homes. The subject property, approximately 74-acres in size, is located west of Barrow Road across the street from SW Guilford High School. The approximate property boundaries are shown on the attached USGS Topo Quad vicinity map. Surface waters on the property flow to Oak Hollow Lake in the Randleman Lake watershed/Cape Fear river basin. The applicant proposes permanent impacts of 148 linear feet of stream channel for construction of the project. Of the proposed stream impacts, 133 linear feet are proposed to a perennial stream for a road crossing. The additional 15 linear feet of stream impact is requested for temporary impacts for sewer construction. Both uses are exempt under the Randleman Lake watershed buffer rules. Andrea Wade (USAGE) has reviewed stream and wetland features on the property. Approximately 0.04 acres of wetlands (1174sf and 548sf) were previously impacted. Those impact acreages were below notification thresholds. No other impacts are proposed for the project. The project will follow local stormwater requirements. The enclosed site plan has been approved by the City of High Point. Enclosed with the completed PCN are proposed impervious calculations from the project engineer. Attached please find: 1) A completed Pre-construction Notification 2) signed Agent Authorization Form, 3) USGS topo quad vicinity map, 4) Guilford County Soil Survey map, 5) Construction plans, 6) Engineer's impervious calculations, 7) Wetland data forms, and 8) 401 processing fee.

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 desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. S&EC has met with Andrea Wade of the USACE regarding impacts. Impacts to perennial streams are less than 1501f and perpendicular. Previous impacts to wetlands (.04 acres). Proposed stream impacts for sewer construction (temporary) will follow NW 12 general certifications. 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 perennial 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 ensure that adverse 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 determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. Page 9 of 12 If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be 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:/ih2o.enr.state.ne.us/ncwetiands/stnn.ide.htm1. 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 directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. Proposed permanent impacts to perennial streams will be 1331£ Fifteen if of temporary impact to perennial stream for sewer crossing. Previous wetland impacts of 0.04 acres. Applicant contends avoidance of perennial stream and Water Supply/Randleman buffers serve as mitigation for proposed impacts. USACE rep Andrea Wade has visited site and reviewed stream/wetland features. 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 request written approval of mitigation prior to submittal of a PCN.
