Box 27687 Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7687 Dear Mr. Dorney; Please find enclosed, for your review, a request for 401 water quality certification for additional activities proposed by Vulcan Materials Company on a 345 acre property which they own in Mecklenburg County, NC. The proposed activities are situated above the headwaters to Caldwell Creek (NC stream index number 13-17-8-5) within the Yadkin-Pee Dee River Basin. This stream has been assigned a water quality classification of `C'. Vulcan Materials has received previous authorization and 401 certification for a stone quarry to be located on this same property. The proposed additional activities include increasing the storage volume of the previously authorized fresh water pond and the creation of two new retention/detention pond areas. These new activities are being proposed to alleviate existing downstream flooding and to provide additional water for stream flow during low water periods. The additional activities have been requested of Vulcan by downstream property owners and are not a part of previously authorized quarry activities located on this same property. The primary purpose result of the ponded areas is to control flooding, improve water quality and to indirectly increase wetland acreage. All existing wetland areas of the site which are to be affected by the additional activities have been delineated and are described in the enclosed documentation. Wetland areas within proposed activity areas consist only of minor intermittent or perennial tributary stream channels located above the headwaters to Caldwell Creek which do not have sidestream wetlands. Due to the nature of the activities and the manner in which they will be performed, it is expected that approximately 4 acres of new wetland area will be created from area which is currently non-wetland. This new wetland acreage will consist of permanently or temporarily flooded forest and littoral fringe. Embankment areas have been situated so as to minimize impacts to existing sidestream wetlands. All jurisdictional areas located on this property have been delineated and have been reviewed by Mr. Steve Lund of the Asheville Regulatory Field Office, USA-COE Wilmington District. The total jurisdictional area which is proposed to be filled under NWP 26 is 0.03 acres for earthen embankments to provide stormwater retention. An additional 0.36 acres of minor tributary stream channel will be impacted by inundation. The total of all jurisdictional areas on the site which will be impacted by the additional activities is approximately 0.39 acres. The total of wetland impacts on the entire tract, including all previously authorized impacts, will be approximately 1.64 acres. Project-wide, a net gain of approximately 2 to 2.5 acres of net wetland gain is expected. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions or if I can be of assistance to you. Thank you for your consideration in this matter. Sincerely, raig R.

OWNER'S SIG U v ?' ? J? _ DATE IAI The proposed activities are a modification to a previously authorized PDN (File no: SAW26-92-17, Vulcan Materials) which authorized the utilization of 1.25 acres of wetland area located above the headwaters to Caldwell Creek in Mecklenburg County, NC. The proposed additional activities consist of the following: 1. Increase storage volume of a previously authorized fresh water supply pond. 2. Create two additional stormwater retention/detention ponds on upper reaches of minor tributaries. The proposed activities will be performed to satisfy the desire of downstream property owners that Vulcan Materials provide additional stormwater retention on-site to alleviate existing downstream flooding following storm events and to increase low-water stream flow by detaining water during periods of excess flow to improve water quality in Caldwell Creek. This flooding or low water flow is not the result of VMC activities, however, Vulcan Materials proposes to voluntarily satisfy these desires by increasing the size of its proposed fresh water storage pond and by the creation of two additional retention areas on minor upstream tributaries to Caldwell Creek. In the process of providing the additional water quality controls, as requested, VMC proposes to perform the activities in a manner which will result in a net wetland gain. 91 Impacts to Wetland Resources All areas which are proposed to be impacted consist of minor intermittent or perennial tributary stream channels which contain no sidestream wetlands. The boundary of all jurisdictional areas within the proposed activity areas have been delineated in the field. A total of 0.39 acres of additional wetland (stream channel) impact is expected as a result of all proposed additional activities. A total of at least 4.0 acres of newly created wetland area is expected to result from the activity for a net gain of wetland for the entire project. A description of each specific activity follows. Increase Storage Volume of Fresh Water SuRWX Pond The previously authorized fresh water supply pond will be increased in size to accommodate additional storage volume. This increase will impact an additional 470 linear feet of stream channel (approximately 10 feet wide) due to permanent inundation. A total of 4700 square feet (0.1 acres) of wetland area will be impacted. This loss will be offset by the permanent or temporary inundation of an additional 2.1 acres of non-wetland. A littoral edge of approximately 10 foot width will be created around the perimeter of the pond which will offset all wetland losses and an additional undetermined acreage of non-wetland will be seasonally inundated which will result in a net wetland gain. Creation of Retention Pond #2 This pond will be created by the impoundment of of a minor perennial tributary to Caldwell Creek. The storage area for this pond will not be cleared but will remain forested. A total of 1150 linear feet of 7.5 foot wide (av.) of stream channel will be permanently or temporarily inundated for a total impact of 8,625 square feet (0.2 acres). This area contains no sidestream wetlands. Approximately 3.3 acres of non-wetland will be permanently inundated and 2.9 acres of non-wetland will be seasonally inundated which is expected to result in a net wetland gain of at least 3 acres of forested wetland. Creation of Retention Pond #3 This pond will be created by the impoundment of a minor intermittent tributary to Caldwell Creek. The storage area for this Creek will be cleared and a littoral edge will be created around the pond perimeter. A total of 825 linear feet of 5 foot wide stream channel will be permanently or seasonally inundated by the creation of this pond. This channel contains no sidestream wetlands. Total impacts to stream channel will be 4125 square feet (0.09 acres). The total permanent pool area of the pond will be 1.5 acres. An additional 1.2 acres of non-wetland will be seasonally inundated. The combination of littoral edge and seasonally inundated upland is expected to result in a .net wetland gain on this pond of over one acre.

Cobey, Jr., Secretary Director October 5, 1990 Craig Wyant Edward Stone and Assoc. 1919 South Boulevard Suite 102, Trolley's End Charlotte, NC 28203 Dear Mr. Wyant: We have only a few rare species records on the three quads you requested information on, and it did not seem worth running a printout. The species are: Hickory: Appalachian Golden-banner (Thermopsis mollis var. mollis), state significantly rare. Midland and Mint Hill: Prairie Birdfood-trefoil (Lotus purshianus var. helleri), state significantly rare; federal candidate, category 2. No currently listed species are known on the two quads, although, as I mentioned on the phone, Schweinitz's sunflower, which is a possibility in the Mecklenburn-Union County area, is state listed and may be federally listed soon.

These areas include the stream channels within proposed pond areas #2 and #3. The sample plot data sheets, site photography, and boundary flag location maps for these areas have been enclosed as a part of this report. Transects were established through each area. and sample plots were conducted to document and photograph the characteristic vegetation, soils, and hydrologic features of representative wetland and non-wetland communities within the area to be impacted.

We have reviewed the revised archaeological report for the above project. The revisions adequately address the concerns expressed in our letters of March 5, 1992 and December 4, 1992. The revised report is, therefore, acceptable. During the course of the survey eleven archaeological sites (31 MK573-581, 616, 617) were located within the project area. None of these sites were deemed eligible for the National Register of Historic Places and further work was not n further recommended. Besites, we eco concur with the artifacts recommendat on fori o identified with these work. The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 19x6 a With Section 06?cod codified atHistoric C R Part 800 Preservation's Regulations for Comp Thank you for your cooperation and consideration.
