APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Wyatt:
The City of Greensboro has our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill in 194 linear
feet of perennial stream and 0.074 acre of wetlands in order to install gravity sewer lines for the Summit
Avenue Sanitary Sewer Outfall in Greensboro, Guilford County, as described in your application received by
the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on August 4, 2005. After reviewing your application, we have
determined that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3374, which can be viewed
on our web site at htt2://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit
Number 12 when it is 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 permit expires unless otherwise specified in the
General Certification.
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 the Certifications and approval
letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total wetland fills for this project (now or
in the future) exceed 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:
The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all other specific and general conditions of the
Certification are met. No other impacts, including incidental impacts, are approved:

2. Soft bank stabilization methods, such as the use of erosion control matting and the planting of
appropriate ground cover, shall be utilized to the maximum extent practicable. 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 of any crossing.
3. In those areas where the construction corridor must be installed parallel to and closer than 10 feet to a
stream channel, 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 C waters as described in 15A NCAC 02B .0211 Fresh Surface
Water Quality Standards For Class C 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.
4. Permanent, maintained access corridors shall be restricted to a maximum width of 20 feet, including
manhole locations and vehicle turnaround areas.
5. Where joints must be placed in sewer lines within the foot print of the stream channel at crossings
having topographic and bedrock constraints, the jointed section shall either be completely enclosed in a
steel encasement pipe sealed at both ends, for aerial crossings, or encased in concrete from bank to bank,
for buried crossings. At its discretion, the City of Greensboro may use ductile iron pipe with
mechanically restrained joints in lieu of concrete encasement.
6. If concrete is used with any fill material, it shall not be allowed to come in contact with surface waters
until it has cured.
7. 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
completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form and return it to the 401/Wetlands
Unit of the NC Division of Water Quality upon completion of the project. Along with the Certificate of
Completion form, please send photographs upstream and downstream of each stream-crossing site to
document correct installation.

Comments: As per our discussion regarding revision of the triage and delegation processes,
please review the attached file. Note that you are the first reviewer, so this file will need to be
reviewed for administrative as well as technical details. If you elect to place this project on hold,
please ask the applicant to provide your requested information to both the Central Office in
Raleigh as well as the Asheville Regional Office. As we discussed, this is an experimental, interim
procedure as we slowly transition to electronic applications. Please apprise me of any
complications you encounter, whether related to workload, processing times, or lack of a "second
reviewer" as the triage process in Central had previously provided. Also, if you think of ways to
improve this process, especially so that we can plan for the electronic applications, let me know.
Thanks!

On behalf of the City of Greensboro (COG), enclosed please find revised copies of page
5 of 11 of the PCN form for the Summit Avenue Sewer Project. Per our field visit with
Daryl Lamb on August 24, 2005, revisions have been made to the Stream Impact Table
and Cumulative Impact Table (on page 5) to include potential permanent impacts
associated with the open cut channel method. As indicated in the permit application, the
COG's intention is to bore and jack beneath the subject stream channels, whenever
conditions allow, which would potentially eliminate all channel impacts. If you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to call me at (704) 372-1885, ext. 1068.

Subject: Pre-Construction Notification
Nationwide Permit No. 12
Summit Avenue Sanitary Sewer Outfall
Greensboro, North Carolina
RWA Project No. 2979-300
Dear Mr. Tugwell:
On behalf of the City of Greensboro (COG), Ralph Whitehead Associates, Inc.
(RWA) is submitting the attached Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) form
(Attachment A) with supplemental information, and accompanying figures and
supporting information, to request the issuance of Department of the Army
Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) No. 12 for the installation of a sanitary
sewer outfall. The COG has retained RWA to act as its agent in matters related
to wetlands permitting for this project. Reference Attachment A for an Agent
Certification of Authorization. Figures referenced in the ensuing discussion are
included in Attachment B.
The project involves the installation of a 7,950 linear foot (If), gravity sanitary
sewer outfall. The sewer will begin at Summit Avenue and end near The School
for the Deaf, where it will tie to an existing manhole (Figure 1 and 2). The sewer
corridor is generally 40 feet in width and maintains a 15-foot stream buffer
(excluding actual stream crossings) throughout most of its length along an
unnamed tributary of Reedy Fork Creek. The proposed project corridor is
predominantly wooded, but also contains several clearings and/or pastures. The
proposed 12-inch outfall will extend from Summit Avenue at Station 79+50 to
Station 32+49.22 located near the crossing point of Stream 2. The 12-inch sewer
then becomes a 16-inch sewer. The 16-inch sewer extends from Station
32+49.22 to Station 0+00 located just south of The School of the Deaf, where it .
ties to an existing manhole. Proposed permanent right-of-way (R/W) widths
range from 20 feet. near Summit Avenue to 25 feet at the project terminus. The
sanitary sewer outfall is proposed pursuant to NWP No. 12.
Mr. Todd Tugwell
July 22, 2111
Page 2 of 7
As described below, permanent losses of waters of the U.S. proposed as part of this project
would be de minimus. However, open cutting of the channel may be required for installation of
the sanitary sewer. In addition, a general condition of Section 401 Water Quality Certification
(WQC) 3374 cannot be adhered to. Namely, the construction corridor may be 50 feet wide at 4
crossings (Wetland A, and Streams 1, 2, and 3, described below) due to the possible presence
of shallow rock and steep topography, dictating that additional area may be required for open
cutting and dewatering. This application is also being provided to the N.C. Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) since all conditions of WQC 3374 cannot be met.
Purpose and Need
The purpose of the sanitary sewer installation is to provide sewer service to existing residential
and commercial areas within a recently annexed region of the City of Greensboro. In order to
meet obligations associated with providing sewer service to annexed areas, the COG would
need to commence construction of the outfall by October 2005.
Jurisdictional Waters of the U.S.
Jurisdictional waters of the U.S., including wetlands, were delineated in the project area by
RWA Environmental Scientists Adam H. Karagosian, P.W.S. and Ashley Oliver in May 2005.
Wetlands were delineated using the 1987 "Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual''.
Reference Figure 3 in Attachment B for an Approximate Waters of the U.S. and Wetlands
Boundary Map.
Jurisdictional waters of the U.S. in the project corridor included four stream channels and four
small wetland areas. Mr. Ron Small of the City of Greensboro Stormwater Department
classified all four streams as perennial in December 2004. Reference Attachment D for Stream
Assessment forms completed by RWA.
Stream 1 is an unnamed, perennial tributary of Reedy Fork Creek, located at Station 62+65. In
the project corridor, Stream 1 ranges in width from 3 to 4 feet, measured at the top-of-bank.
Stream 1 has bank heights of .approximately 1 foot (Attachment C, Photograph 1). Stream 1
had flowing water at the time of the May 10, 2005 site visit. Riparian vegetation includes red
maple (Acer rubrum), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), Japanese honeysuckle (Locinera
japonica), jewelweed (Impatiens capensis), poison ivy (Toxicodendron radicans), Virginia
t creeper (Parthenocissus quinquefolia), and spicebush (Lindera benzoin).
Stream 2 is an unnamed, perennial tributary of Reedy Fork Creek, and parallels the entire
length of the proposed sanitary sewer outfall. The outfall has a single crossing of Stream 2 at
1 Station 34+15. In the project corridor, Stream 2 (Photograph 2) has a bankfull width of
approximately 12 to 15 feet, measured at the top-of-bank. Stream 2 has bank heights of
approximately 3 to 4 feet. Stream 2 had flowing water at the time of the May 10, 2005 site visit.
Riparian vegetation includes honey locust (Gleditsia triacanthos), tag alder (Alnus serrulata),
multiflora rose (Rosa multiflora), common buttercup (Ranunculus acris), blackberry (Rubus
betulifolius), muscadine (Vitus rotundifolia), and jewelweed.

L Stream 3 (Photograph 3) is an unnamed, perennial tributary of Reedy Fork Creek, located at
Station 13+30. In the project corridor, Stream 3 ranges in width from 8 to 10 feet, measured at
the top-of-bank, and has bank heights of approximately 2 to 3 feet. Stream 3 had flowing water
at the time of the May 10, 2005 site visit. Riparian vegetation includes tulip poplar (Liriodendron
tulipifera), red maple, arrow arum (Peltandra virginica), greenbriar (Smilax rotundifolia), poison
ivy, and jewelweed.
Stream 4 is an unnamed, perennial tributary of Reedy Fork Creek, located at Station 0+45. In
the project corridor, Stream 4 (Photograph 4) has a bankfull width of approximately 5 to 7 feet,
measured at the top-of-bank. Stream 4 has bank heights of approximately 2 to 4 feet. Stream 4
had flowing water at the time of the May 10, 2005 site visit. Riparian vegetation includes tulip
poplar, red maple, sweetgum, poison ivy, spicebush, and jewelweed.
There are four small wetland areas present in the project area. Reference Attachment D for
Wetland Determination data forms. Wetland A (Photograph 5) is a paulstrine forested wetland
located near Station 40+75 within the project corridor. Dominant vegetation in this wetland
includes ironwood (Carpinus caroliniana), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), Chinese privet
(Ligustrum sinense), red maple, beaksedge (Rhynchospora spp.), variable panic grass
(Dichanthelium commutatum), jewelweed, and poison ivy. This wetland was saturated at the
time of RWA's site visit, and contained several pockets of standing water. Wetland A is
estimated to be approximately 0.018 acre in size.
Wetland B (Photograph 6) is a palustrine emergent wetland located within a forested floodplain.
Dominant vegetation in this wetland includes Nepal microstegium (Eulalia viminea), dog violet
(Viola sororia), and variable panic grass. Wetland B is estimated to be approximately 0.033
acre in size, and is located near Station 28+00.
Wetland C (Photograph 7) is a palustrine forested wetland. The wetland is seep-fed, and
crosses the proposed project corridor near Station 8+00 and proposed Manhole #4. Dominant
vegetation within Wetland A is also representative of this wetland. Wetland C is estimated to be
approximately 0.04 acre in size.
Wetland D (Photograph 8) is a palustrine forested wetland, which surrounds Stream 4 near the
School of the Deaf. Dominant vegetation in this wetland includes red maple, sweetgum, tulip
poplar, jewelweed, poison ivy, Virginia creeper, assorted rushes, and arrow arum. Wetland D is
estimated to be approximately 0.018 acre in size.
The City of Greensboro hereby requests a U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Jurisdictional
Determination for the wetland delineation. Attachment D includes Routine Wetland
Determination Data Forms. Reference Attachment B, Figures 6 through 12, for approximate
locations and boundaries of the waters of the U.S. within the project area.
Impacts to Waters of the U.S.
The proposed project consists of the construction of an approximate 7,950 linear foot sanitary
sewer outfall. The proposed project would result in the loss of approximately 0.028 acre of
wooded wetlands. There will be a temporary impact of 0.017 acre to wooded wetlands and
0.029 acre of temporary impact to emergent wetlands. In addition, no more than 194 linear feet
of jurisdictional stream (Stream 1 = 50 If, Stream 2 = 54 If, Stream 3 = 54 If, Stream 4 = 36 If)

Permanent Impact Totals: 0.028
Temporary Impact Totals: 0.046 and 194 If
Activities on the project site involving impacts to waters of the U.S. will be required to follow the
General Conditions of the Nationwide Permits (Federal Register Vol. 67, No. 10; January 15,
2002), applicable Wilmington District Regional Conditions, and applicable State consistency
conditions.
Minimization/Mitigation
As previously described, impacts associated with the proposed project's NWP No. 12 activities
would be de minimus. There will be no permanent impacts to streams due to construction of the
sanitary sewer outfall. The COG intends to bore beneath the stream for installation of the outfall,
if practicable. In the event that the outfall cannot be bored beneath the stream and an open cut
method is employed, the crossing has been designed to be close to perpendicular to the
channel, and the stream banks would be reestablished to pre-construction contours. Soft bank
stabilization, such as erosion control matting and plantings, will be utilized to stabilize any
impacted stream banks.
The proposed temporary construction corridor width has been limited to 40 feet, where
practicable. The corridor may be 50 feet wide at 4 crossings (Wetland A, and Streams 1, 2 and
3) due to the possible presence of shallow rock, steep topography, and depth of excavation
dictating that additional area may be required for open cutting and dewatering (Note: The
presence of shallow rock is widespread in this portion of Guilford County and the COG's survey
Mr. Todd Tugwell
July 22, 2005
Page 5 of 7
crews have documented observations of rock at numerous locations in the project corridor). At
Streams 1, 2 and 3, the 50 foot construction corridor width will actually result. in temporary
stream impacts of only 40 feet. The impact lengths identified in Table 1 above include sediment
traps and dewatering basins situated at the top-of-bank of these streams These erosion and
sedimentation control features should not result in stream channel impacts. However, additional
stream. impact length is included in this application, as noted in Table 1, in the event that
installation of these features impacts stream banks and riparian buffer area. Reference the
Standard Sedimentation Control and Temporary Creek Crossing Details included in Attachment
B (4 sheets).
As an additional minimization measure, the construction corridor or easement is narrower (15
feet) on the stream-side of the proposed sewer than the opposite side (25'), providing an
additional undisturbed buffer for much of the length of Stream 2. The sewer outfall was offset to
allow clearing limits to be kept 15 feet from the top-of-bank of Stream 2, thereby avoiding
impacts to the stream. The edge of the construction corridor is at least 15 feet from the top-of-
bank, except between stations 43+10.93 and 46+00.93 due to steep topography and limited
space availability. Edge of construction will also be within 15 feet of the-Stream 2 top-of-bank
near Station 0+00.00 and 3+50.00, due to the fact that the proposed sewer must be tied to the
existing manhole at the project terminus. However, at no location will the edge of the
construction easement extend to within 10 feet of the top-of-bank of Stream 2.
Impacts to each stream in the project corridor were minimized by aligning the sewer to cross
these channels at a near-90 degree angle. The proposed easement parallel to Stream 2 in the
central portion of the project area was shifted to the maximum extent practicable. In addition,
the depth of the sewer was reduced through this area in an effort to minimize the width of the
construction corridor. An additional measure to avoid and minimize impacts includes limiting the
construction corridor to 40 feet throughout the entire length of the easement, to the maximum
extent practicable.
Possible sedimentation of the stream downstream of the construction area during and
immediately following the construction phase will be minimized to the maximum extent
practicable by strict implementation of, and compliance with, a State-approved sediment and
erosion control plan. Erosion and sediment control measures will be inspected for compliance
with construction contract documents, as well as following storm events, to identify needed
repair, maintenance, or redesign.
Mitigation efforts for this project included avoidance and minimization of impacts to jurisdictional
waters of the U.S., including wetlands. Additional mitigation measures proposed include using a
wetland seed mix in the cleared wetland areas, and allowing successional scrub-shrub
vegetation to restore those areas of the temporary construction easement situated beyond the
proposed permanent R/W in wooded wetland areas. In addition, wetland areas will be backfilled
with topsoil excavated from these areas during construction, maintaining hydric soil type and a
i seed source in these areas.
Activities on the project site involving impacts to waters of the U.S. will be required to follow the
General Conditions of the Nationwide Permits (Federal Register Vol. 67, No. 10; Tuesday,
January 15, 2002), applicable Wilmington District Regional Conditions, and applicable State
consistency conditions.

r dated Jun 29, 2005, the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office SHPO
In a lette d J ( )
indicated that no historic resources would be affected by the project. Reference Attachment E
for a copy of the SHPO correspondence.
A search of the North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) database provided existing
information concerning the potential occurrence of threatened or endangered species within
Guilford County, North Carolina. This database indicates that the Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus
leucocephalus) is the only federal and/or state threatened or endangered species known to
occur in Guilford County. .
An assessment of potential Bald Eagle habitat (see description below) in the study area was
conducted during the field review on May 10 and 11, 2005. Appropriate habitat for the bald
eagle was not identified.
Bald Eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus) _
The bald eagle is associated with coasts, rivers, and lakes, usually nesting near large bodies of
water where it feeds. Nesting habitat in the southeast usually occurs in large pine or cypress
trees. The bald eagle is listed as a current record for Guilford County. The proposed project is
not expected to impact large bodies of water and no areas resembling the habitat requirements
for this species were observed in the project area.
Considering the lack of potential habitat in the project area, the likelihood that the bald eagle is
present is concluded to be remote.

III. Project Information
Attach a vicinity map clearly showing the location of the property with respect to local
landmarks such as towns, rivers, and roads. Also provide a detailed site plan showing property
boundaries and development plans in relation to surrounding properties. Both the vicinity map
and site plan must include a scale and north arrow. The specific footprints of all buildings,
impervious surfaces, or other facilities must be included. If possible, the maps and plans should
include the appropriate USGS Topographic Quad Map and NRCS Soil Survey with the property
boundaries outlined. Plan drawings, or other maps maybe included at the applicant's discretion,
so long as the property is clearly defined. For administrative and distribution purposes, the
USACE requires information to be submitted on sheets no larger than 11 by 17-inch format;
however, DWQ may accept paperwork of any size. DWQ prefers full-size construction
drawings rather than a sequential sheet version of the full-size plans. If full-size plans are
reduced to a small scale such that the final version is illegible, the applicant will be informed that
the project has been placed on hold until decipherable maps are provided.

the USACE Action ID Number, DWQ Project Number, application date, and date permits and
• certifications were issued or withdrawn. Provide photocopies of previously issued permits,
certifications or other useful information. Describe previously approved wetland, stream and
buffer impacts, along with associated mitigation (where applicable). If this is a NCDOT project,
list and describe permits issued for prior segments of the same T.I.P. project, along with
construction schedules. No previous iurisdictional determinations or permits have been
issued for this project
V. Future Project Plans
Are any future permit requests anticipated for this project? If so, describe the anticipated work,
and provide justification for the exclusion of this work from the current application.
No future project plans are being considered at this time. Appropriate notification will be
provided should future impacts to waters of the U.S. be proposed.
VI. Proposed Impacts to Waters of the United States/Waters of the State
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. Each impact must be
listed separately in the tables below (e.g., culvert installation should be listed separately from
riprap dissipater pads). Be sure to indicate if an impact is temporary. All proposed impacts,
permanent and temporary, must be listed, and must be labeled and clearly identifiable on an
accompanying site plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial)
should be shown on a delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems.
Wetland and stream evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate.
I Page 3 of 11
Photographs may be included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for
wetland or stream mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional
space is needed for listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts:
The proposed project consists of the construction of an approximate 7,950 linear foot
sanitary sewer outfall. The proposed project would result in the loss of approximately
0.028 acre of wooded wetlands. There will be a temporary impact of 0.017 acre to wooded
wetlands and 0.029 acre of temporary impact to emergent wetlands. In addition, no more
than 194 linear feet of jurisdictional stream (Stream 1, 2, 3, and 4) will be temporarily
impacted by the project.
r
The nroaosed temporary construction corridor width has been limited to 40 feet, where
practicable. The corridor may be 50 feet wide at 4 crossings (Wetland A, and Streams 1, 2
and 3) due to the possible presence of shallow rock and steep topography, dictating that
additional area may be required for open cutting and dewatering. At Streams 1, 2 and 3,
the 50 foot corridor width will actually result in temporary stream impacts of only 40 feet.
The impact lengths identified in the Table below include sediment traps and dewatering
basins situated at the top-of-bank of these streams These erosion and sedimentation
control features should not result in stream impacts. However, additional stream impact
length is included in this application, as noted in the stream impact table below, in the
event that installation of these features impacts stream banks and riparian buffer area.
Reference the Standard Sedimentation Control and Temporary Creek Crossing Details
toward the end of Attachment B (4 sheets).
2. Individually list wetland impacts. Types of impacts include, but are not limited to
mechanized clearing, grading, fill, excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams,
separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding.

VII. 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.
Impacts associated with the proposed proiect's NWP No. 12 activities would be de
minimus. There will be no permanent impacts to streams due to construction of the
sanitary sewer line. The COG intends to bore beneath the stream for installation of the
outfall, if practicable. In the event that the outfall cannot be bored beneath the stream
and an open cut method is employed, the crossing has been designed to be close to
perpendicular to the channel, and the stream banks would be reestablished to pre-
construction contours. Soft bank stabilization, such as erosion control matting and
' plantings, will be utilized to stabilize any impacted stream banks.
The proposed temporary construction corridor width has been limited to 40 feet, where
practicable The corridor may be 50 feet wide at 4 crossings (Wetland'A, and Streams 1, 2
and 3) due to the possible presence of shallow rock and steep topography, dictating that
additional area may be required for open cutting and dewatering. At Streams 1, 2 and 3,
the 50 foot corridor width will actually result in temporary stream impacts of only 40 feet.
As an additional minimization measure, the construction corridor is narrower (15 feet) on
the stream-side of the proposed sewer than the opposite side (251), providing an additional
undisturbed buffer for much of the length of Stream 2. The sewer line was offset to allow
clearing limits to be kept 15 feet from the top-of-bank of Stream 2, thereby avoiding
impacts to the stream. The edge of the construction corridor is at least 15 feet from the
top-of-bank, except between stations 43+10.93 and 46+00.93 due to steep topography and
limited space availability. Edge of construction will also be within 15 feet of the Stream 2
top-of-bank near Station 0+00.00 and 3+50.00, due to the fact that the proposed sewer line
must be tied to the existing sewer outfall. However, the edge of the construction easement
will not extend to within 10 feet of the top-of-bank of Stream 2.
Page 6ofII
I Impacts to each stream in the project corridor were minimized by aligning the sewer to
cross these channels at near-90 degree angle. The proposed easement parallel to Stream 2
' in the eastern portion of the project area was shifted to the maximum extent practicable.
In addition, the depth of the sewer was reduced through this area in an-effort to minimize
the width of the construction corridor. An additional measure to avoid and minimize
impacts includes limiting the construction corridor to 40 feet throughout the entire length
of the easement, to the maximum extent practicable.
Possible sedimentation of the stream downstream of the construction area during and
immediately following the construction phase will be minimized to the maximum extent
practicable by strict implementation of, and compliance with, a State-approved sediment
and erosion control plan. Erosion and sediment control measures will be inspected for
compliance with construction contract documents, as well as following storm events, to
identifv needed repair, maintenance, or redesign
J
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 January 15, 2002, 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.
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 NCEEP 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/ncwetlands/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 metho
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
Mitigation efforts for this project included avoidance and minimization of impacts to
iurisdictional waters of the U.S., including wetlands. Additional mitigation measures
proposed include using a wetland seed mix in the cleared wetland areas, and allowing
successional scrub-shrub vegetation to grow on the edges of the permanent easement in
wetland areas. In addition, wetland areas will be backfilled with topsoil excavated from
these areas during construction, maintaining hydric soil type and a seed source in these
' areas. Also, in the event open-cutting of the streams is necessary, soft bank
stabilization, such as erosion control matting and plantings, will be utilized to stabilize
any impacted stream banks.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at
(919) 715-0476 to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points
to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a' brief description of how to review the
characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a
characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the
comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture
into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each
reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the
highest quality.
