VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
infonnation 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. The proposed highway
widening will be built according to NCDOT standards and specifications. Togoaraghical
constraints include slopes averaging 25% in the expansion area. The intermittent
stream is currently severely incised (3 to 5 feet) and heavily infested with invasive vine
species in the proposed expansion area. Careful consideration was given to minimize
impacts to the lower reasonably stable stream area and other waterbodies. By using
this already impacted maintained utility line area, we are minimizinq disturbance to the
surrounding woodlands.

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 detennining 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 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/ncwctlands/stnn,gide.litini.
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. N/A
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
[phone] to detennine 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.litm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the
following information:

local stonnwater requirement, etc.):
Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area:
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. The proposed highway
widenina will be built accordina to NCDOT standards and specifications. TODOaraphical
constraints include slopes averaging 25% in the expansion area. The intermittent
stream is currently severely incised (3 to 5 feet) and heavily infested with invasive vine
species in the proposed expansion area. Careful consideration was given to minimize
impacts to the lower reasonably stable stream area and other waterbodies. By using
this already impacted maintained utility line area, we are minimizing disturbance to the
surroundinq woodlands.

VIII. Miti ration
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
Pennits, 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.
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
littp:Hii2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwctlands/stnngide.litml.
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 mechanists (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. N/A
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
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional infonnation regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://li2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.litm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the
following infonnation:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):

Re: Preconstruction Notification Application
Apex Highway 55 road widening (S&L Project #: 2604013)
Town of Apex, Wake County, North Carolina
Dear USACE:
Skelly and Loy is submitting a Preconstruction Notification (PCN) Application for the above-
referenced project with request for US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) written approval
of Nationwide (NW) Permit Number 14 under Section 404, Clean Water Act, 33 USC 1344.
This application is being submitted on behalf of the Town of Apex, North Carolina.
The current project will include the installation of one 42-inch culvert and rip-rap dissipater
as part of the highway widening, sidewalk, curb, and gutter installation and culvert extension.
This project will expand the current 2-lane road to allow for current and future traffic and
pedestrian loads. The road widening is located approximately 3,000 feet south of US 64 on
NC-55 (W. Williams Street); between Apex Peakway and Haddon Hall Drive
Nationwide Permit 14 is being requested for one stream impact to an unnamed tributary to
Beaver Creek. One 42-inch Reinforced Concrete Pipe (RCP) will convey the surface water
flow. This pipe will be buried approximately 1 foot to allow for aquatic movement and satisfy
current USACE and DWQ protocols.
The enclosed PCN Application and attached additional documentation listed below should
provide the necessary information required to secure NW Permit 14 under Section 404 for
the impacts described above and on the attached PCN Application.
1. Area Topographic Map.
2. Hwy 55 Road Widening Plan & Profile Sheet.
