Dear Mrs. Davenport:
On several occasions Mr. Steve Mitchell from the Raleigh Regional Office of the North
Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) (and on one occasion) Mr. Eric Fleck and Mr.
Todd St. John from NCDWQ's Central Office conducted site visits at your project near N.C.
s Highway 98 in Wake Forest.
As a result of these visits it has been determined that you have placed fill material in
Waters or Wetlands of the State. These activities are violations of Section 301 and Section 401 of
the Clean Water Act and require prior authorization by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
(USACOE) and NCDWQ. In order to bring your project into compliance you will be required to
complete the enclosed application for a 401 Water Quality Certification. If you cannot show that
you had no practicable alternative to the placement of stream in culvert at the Warmoven Road
crossing you will be required to remove the culvert and conduct stream restoration. In addition,
this road crossing has also removed the riparian buffer. Your 401 Water Quality Certification
application must detail why these unauthorized buffer impacts have occurred and why you had no
practicable alternative for this road crossing. Failure to adequately address these problems may
result in the assessment of Civil Penalties of up to $10,000 per day per violation by the North
Carolina Division of Water Quality. In addition, further enforcement actions may also be pursued
against you by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and or the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (USEPA).
Please respond to this Notice of Violation within 14 days upon your receipt detailing
what measures you plan to implement to bring your project into compliance with the Clean Water

Re: Detailed Wetland/Neuse Basin Buffer Report:
Crenshaw Hall Project
Dear Ms. Davenport and Mr. Gould:
PRELIMINARY WETLAND/NEUSE BASIN BUFFER REPORT
On June 18, 1998 the property was traversed and the soils, vegetation and hydrology were
evaluated according to procedures described in the "1987 US Army Corps of Engineers
Manual for Identifying and Delineating Wetlands" and the April 1998 version of the Neuse
Basin Rules.
Based on these guidelines, we have determined that the tract contains both jurisdictional
wetland and "Waters of the US" which are regulated by the USACE and the NC DEHNR-
Division of Water Quality. We also identified stream channels within and adjacent to the
project area which meet the current Neuse Basin Rule criteria for buffered channels (see
Preliminary Wetland Man).
There are four significant issues concerning this project. The first is that the tract contains
jurisdictional wetlands that were field estimated to total approximately 1/3 acre. Impacts
within these areas will count toward the 1/3 and 3 acre thresholds discussed in the
Permitting Synopsis.
The second issue is that the tract contains approximately 4800 linear feet of jurisdictional
channel. Note that the Corps' policy regarding channels involves the recognition of two
types of impact, minor and major. Basically, minor impacts occur within intermittent
channels and major impacts occur within perennial channels that have a greater value in
terms of stormwater retention, sediment removal, aquatic life, etc. The significance of this
separation is that minor impacts count toward the 1/3 and 3 acre thresholds discussed
Soil/Site Evaluation N Mapping and Physical Analysis ¦ Wetlands Mapping and Mitigatioclre ¦ Environmental Audits
rpt
On-Site Waste 'T'reatment Systems, Evaluation and Desip-n tw
r
herein, and the major impacts count toward the 150 and 500 linear feet thresholds. This
change in policy is somewhat favorable since the maximum amount of channel impact
under the Nationwide Permit Program has been 500 linear feet. Impacts to channels
greater that 500 feet have required an "individual permit" which involves a more rigorous
process.
For this project, channels (A), (B), and (C) will almost certainly be considered major
impact areas and channel (D) will almost certainly be considered a minor impact area.
Note that this determination can only be substantiated by a USACE staff member.
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) administers an entirely separate set of regulations
regarding channel impacts, and they may have to be notified if permits for more than 150
linear feet are requested. Typically, storm water ponds are required by DWQ for
commercial projects with more than 150 linear feet of impact, regardless of whether the
impacts are to perennial or intermittent channels. Additionally, mitigation may be
required, if DWQ determines that the channels contain "significant aquatic life" during a
site meeting.
For this project, channels (A), (B) and (C) probably contain significant aquatic life, and
channel (D) almost certainly does not. In order to substantiate this determination, we
would have to sample the channels for aquatic life according to procedures approved by
DWQ, or have one of their staff members visit the site. If necessary, requirements for
mitigation administered by DWQ can be fulfilled through payment of $125.00/ linear foot
to the Wetland Restoration Fund, after an effort to "minimize" impact has been approved.
The third issue is that the project is located in the Neuse River Basin and is therefore
subject to the Neuse Basin Rules (NBR's) which went into effect on July 22, 1997.
According to these new rules, existing vegetative buffers must be maintained around all
lakes/ponds and on each side of perennial/intermittent channels within the Neuse River
Basin. More specifically, this zone is made up of three sections that extend a total of 50
feet from the outer edge of all channels, ponds and lakes surrounded by "forest
vegetation". The inner section is 10 feet wide and it must remain undisturbed (i.e. no
timber can be removed unless it threatens the channel or a structure). The second section
is 20 feet wide, and must contain "forest vegetation" (i.e. only trees with diameters greater
than 12 inches can be removed). The outer section measures 20 feet, and although it too
must contain forest vegetation all construction related activities are prohibited within all
three sections. Possible exceptions to this rule include road crossings, utility crossings and
water dependent structures (i.e. docks, boat ramps etc). Furthermore, sheet flow must be
encouraged within all three sections, and adjacent drainage ditches must be constructed so
that storm water does not form channels through the buffer zone.
Note that DWQ defines an intermittent channel as one that flows for more than 48 hours
after a 10 year or 24 hour storm event. This definition is extremely vague, but based on
the results of several recent site visits with DWQ, we have determined that channels (A)
(B) and (C) will almost certainly have to be buffered. Channel (D) is somewhat
questionable. In other words, the upper limits of the buffer within channel (D) should be
linear feet for channels, may be subjected to the "minimization process" and mitigation.
Mitigation is a complex process that involves planning and monitoring. Under the current
regulations, mitigation typically results from impacts to channels. Channel mitigation is
intended to replace lost significant aquatic function and value. Therefore, this type of
mitigation usually requires that meanders be created within constructed channels.
Furthermore, side-slopes and beds must be re-vegetated, and rip-rap is discouraged.
Mitigation requirements administered by DWQ may also be fulfilled through payment of
$125/linear foot to the Wetland Restoration Fund.
The probability of obtaining permits, permitting requirements and mitigation issues must
be addressed on a case by case basis after the wetland survey has been evaluated with
regard to the site plan.
Please call if you have any questions.
Sincerely,

Re: Crenshaw Hall Plantation Subdivision
N.C. Highway 98
Wake Forest, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Dorney:
9808 113
This letter is to request an exemption for a public street crossing of a Neuse River
Basin stream. The proposed roadway, Warmoven Street, will connect to the proposed
Hampton Road just south of its intersection with N.C. Hwy. 98. The proposed
crossing is at the request and direction of the Town of Wake Forest to allow access to
the adjacent property to the east. This internal connection will prevent the need for
residents and their children to venture out onto N.C. Hwy. 98 to access the adjacent
grocery store and other commercial properties under construction. The entire length
of the subject property and the adjacent property to the east is separated by this
stream that flows to the south. In addition, the Hampton Road and Warmoven Street
roadways were required from a traffic flow and capacity standpoint for this area of the
Town of Wake Forest both by the Town and NCDOT. The location of the proposed
crossing will be the least intrusive location between the two properties.
We are enclosing copies of plans and exhibits that illustrate the proposed crossing and
the traffic issue.

Dear Mr. Domey:
I am writing to follow up on our September and October meetings with regard to the
Warmoven Road crossing and utility impacts at Crenshaw Hall Plantation in Wake Forest, NC.
In October, we sent an exhibit showing the areas and extent of impacts to you. We also gave
you, at our September meeting, a set of construction plans for the subdivision. You were
going to evaluate the plans for conformance with the Neuse Buffer rules. We need to know if
the plans have been reviewed. Your staff was to look particularly at the outlet conditions of
storm drain outfalls and the creek forking required by the Town of Wake Forest.
It is our understanding that no permits are needed to complete the work as scheduled. If this
is not the case, please let us as soon as possible and we will forward any needed information.

Dear Mr. Tugwell:
I am writing to follow up on our site visit of October 20, 1998 with you, Roe
O'Donnell, Chip Russell, and Eric Keravouri of the Town of Wake Forest; Eric Fleek,
Steve Mitchell and Todd St. James of DWQ; and myself. You had asked that we
supply some additional information about the extent of the channel impacts. We have
attached a copy of a plan sheet delineating the channel impacts. We have impacted
approximately 1 1 ,250 SF or 0.26 acres of channel in the newly constructed
Warmoven Street crossing. This includes riprap aprons, both upstream and
downstream which have not yet been installed.
Two other areas of impact, which I meant to discuss with you on site, are two sanitary
sewer crossings and some temporary riprap installed for erosion control purposes.
Steve Mitchell of the Raleigh Regional Office of DWQ has looked at these areas and
is aware of the impacts. We will impact approximately 1,050 SF of channel with two
proposed sanitary sewer crossings. 750 SF of impact are within an easement outside
the property. This property is owned by Calvin Ray and is not a portion of this project,
but we have included the 750 SF towards the total impact for the project. One
additional area of impact has already occurred. At the southwest corner of the site,
we were required by Wake County erosion control to install riprap directly in the
channel for erosion control purposes. This temporary stream impact is approximately
1 700 SF. The riprap will be removed once the site is stabilized and the creek banks
restored. The total impact for the project, including the temporary riprap, the two
utility crossings, and the road crossing is 0.32 acres or 14,000 SF.

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Dorney
FRO : Eric Flee
RE: Crenshaw Hall--Warmoven Road Crossings
John, after reviewing the plans and coordinating wiih Steve (he was the original
investigator) the following comments are offered:
1) The stream crossing indicated as #1 in highlight is not subject to NBR.
2) The stream crossing indicated as #2 in highlight is Subject to NBR. Unfortunately,
this impact has already occurred. Culvert has been placed in the stream and the buffer
is gone. Interestingly, this crossing Steve Mitchell originally identified as subject and
instructed applicant not to impact-they did it anyway.
Recommendation: Y) require removal of culvert from #2 above. If they claim that the
project cannot be completed without the crossing they can ask for a variance-which staff
will likely not support since they were told not to do the impact but did so anyway. No
401/NBR has been issued. Additionally, (as per Steve Mitchell; 12-8-98) there are some
instream sediment and erosion control devices still installed and apparently there are now
more than 150' of stream impacts on site-requiring a 401 for both NBR and streams. 2)
Require removal and restoration of areas subject to NBR where instream sediment and
erosion control devices are installed. 3) Require an amended application for the 150'+
stream impacts. Mitigation may be required if these?impacts have occurred on the stream
denoted in highlight as #2 above as fish were obse ed.
If there are any questions regarding this matter plea a let ine know.

Dear Mr. Rice:
Re: Crenshaw Hall Plantation
Wake County
DWQ # 980813
Thank you for your August 20, 1998 letter concerning a stream crossing for
Warmoven Street near Hampton Road and NC 98. The enclosed application form must
be completed and seven copies sent to the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) (with a copy
also sent to the US Army Corps of Engineers) to begin our processing.
This application must also address the stream and wetland fill that has previously
occurred on the property. We have no record of any 401 Certifications issued for this
area and therefore have concerns about the legality of the previous fill.
Therefore we need to know:
(1) The original extent of the streams and wetlands on the site,
(2) When the stream and wetland fills occurred,
(3) The length of impact for streams and the area of any wetland fill,
(4) What stormwater management is planned for the developed site and
(5) The location of sediment and erosion control measures.
These issues must be addressed in your submittal for the road crossing.
Please call me at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions.

Subject: Crenshaw Hall Warmoven Rd Crossings And NBR
In your inbox you will see a memo and the important data regarding this issue. The file (6" thick) is in the
on hold file (Wake Co.). The green highlight #1 is stormwater and not subject. #2 in green highlight is
subject and is already impacted-despite Steve telling them that it was subject and not to impact it. I
definitely think we should try and make them remove the culvert. Failing that, an after-the-fact variance-
heavily conditioned (maybe coupled with a fine since Mitchell told them specifically not to impact this
area) may suffice. Steve, please feel free to give us your recommendations also.

FROM: Eric Flee'
RE: Crenshaw Hall-Warmoven Road Crossings
1 F?W'A •
NC ENR
NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF
ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
John, after reviewing the plans and coordinating with Steve (he was the original
investigator) the following comments are offered:
1) The stream crossing indicated as #1 in highlight is not subject to NBR.
2) The stream crossing indicated as #2 in highlight is subject to NBR. Unfortunately,
this impact has already occurred. Culvert has been placed in the stream and the buffer
is gone. Interestingly, this crossing Steve Mitchell originally identified as subject and
instructed applicant not to impact-they did it anyway.
Recommendation: 1) require removal of culvert from #2 above. If they claim that the
project cannot be completed without the crossing they can ask for a variance-which staff
will likely not support since they were told not to do the impact but did so anyway. No
401/NBR has been issued. Additionally, (as per Steve Mitchell; 12-8-98) there are some
instream sediment and erosion control devices still installed and apparently there are now
more than 150' of stream impacts on site-requiring a 401 for both NBR and streams. 2)
Require removal and restoration of areas subject to NBR where instream sediment and
erosion control devices are installed. 3) Require an amended application for the 150'+
stream impacts. Mitigation may be required if these impacts have occurred on the stream
denoted in highlight as #2 above as fish were observed.
If there are any questions regarding this matter please let me know.

Re: Crenshaw Hall Plantation Subdivision
N.C. Highway 98
Wake Forest, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Dorney:
This letter is to request an exemption for a public street crossing of a Neuse River
Basin stream. The proposed roadway, Warmoven Street, will connect to the proposed
Hampton Road just south of its intersection with N.C. Hwy. 98. The proposed
crossing is at the request and direction of the Town of Wake Forest to allow access to
the adjacent property to the east. This internal connection will prevent the need for
residents and their children to venture out onto N.C. Hwy. 98 to access the adjacent
grocery store and other commercial properties under construction. The entire length
of the subject property and the adjacent property to the east is separated by this
stream that flows to the south. In addition, the Hampton Road and Warmoven Street
roadways were required from a traffic flow and capacity standpoint for this area of the
Town of Wake Forest both by the Town and NCDOT. The location of the proposed
crossing will be the least intrusive location between the two properties.
We are enclosing copies of plans and exhibits that illustrate the proposed crossing and
the traffic issue.

Not knowing which one is considered Warmoven..... the one that
Todd went into the sediment basin on is the one in violation of
NBR. The crossing towards Hwy 98 was over a stormwater channel
that is now free flowing because of the ditching. In addition,
there is a sediment basin instream on the main chanel that Rice
was told not to do, but says the Town told him he had to do so.

As far as Crenshaw.... the last thing we did was to require that they
remove the culvert or ask for a variance. I will not support a
variance since I told them that stream was subject to protection and
not to impact it. They still have erosion and sediment control in
stream and the impacts are greater than 150 feet. The have no 401

Dear Mr. Rice:
Re: Crenshaw Hall Plantation
Wake County
DWQ # 980813
Thank you for your August 20, 1998 letter concerning a stream crossing for
Warmoven Street near Hampton Road and NC 98. The enclosed application form must
be completed and seven copies sent to the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) (with a copy
also sent to the US Army Corps of Engineers) to begin our processing.
This application must also address the stream and wetland fill that has previously
occurred on the property. We have no record of any 401 Certifications issued for this
area and therefore have concerns about the legality of the previous fill.
Therefore we need to know:
(1) The original extent of the streams and wetlands on the site,
(2) When the stream and wetland fills occurred,
(3) The length of impact for streams and the area of any wetland fill,
(4) What stormwater management is planned for the developed site and
(5) The location of sediment and erosion control measures.
These issues must be addressed in your submittal for the road crossing.
Please call me at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions.

Re: Detailed Wetland/Neuse Basin Buffer Report:
Crenshaw Hall Project
Dear Ms. Davenport and Mr. Gould:
PRELIMINARY WETLAND/NEUSE BASIN BUFFER REPORT
On June 18, 1998 the property was traversed and the soils, vegetation and hydrology were
evaluated according to procedures described in the "1987 US Army Corps of Engineers
Manual for Identifying and Delineating Wetlands" and the April 1998 version of the Neuse
Basin Rules.
Based on these guidelines, we have determined that the tract contains both jurisdictional
wetland and "Waters of the US" which are regulated by the USACE and the NC DEHNR-
Division of Water Quality. We also identified stream channels within and adjacent to the
project area which meet the current Neuse Basin Rule criteria for buffered channels (see
Preliminary Wetland Map).
There are four significant issues concerning this project. The first is that the tract contains
jurisdictional wetlands that were field estimated to total approximately 1/3 acre. Impacts
within these areas will count toward the 1/3 and 3 acre thresholds discussed in the
Permitting Synopsis.
The second issue is that the tract contains approximately 4800 linear feet of jurisdictional
channel. Note that the Corps' policy regarding channels involves the recognition of two
types of impact, minor and major. Basically, minor impacts occur within intermittent
channels and major impacts occur within perennial channels that have a greater value in
terms of stormwater retention, sediment removal, aquatic life, etc. The significance of this
separation is that minor impacts count toward the 1/3 and 3 acre thresholds discussed
vironmental Audits
Soil/Site Evaluation ¦ Mapping and Physical Analysis ¦ Wetlands Mapping and Mitigatiox, ¦?? fpt
CtWP,
On-Site Waste Treatment Systems, Evaluation and Design
herein, and the major impacts count toward the 150 and 500 linear feet thresholds. This
change in policy is somewhat favorable since the maximum amount of channel impact
under the Nationwide Permit Program has been 500 linear feet. Impacts to channels
greater that 500 feet have required an "individual permit" which involves a more rigorous
process.
For this project, channels (A), (B), and (C) will almost certainly be considered major
impact areas and channel (D) will almost certainly be considered a minor impact area.
Note that this determination can only be substantiated by a USACE staff member.
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) administers an entirely separate set of regulations
regarding channel impacts, and they may have to be notified if permits for more than 150
linear feet are requested. Typically, storm water ponds are required by DWQ for
commercial projects with more than 150 linear feet of impact, regardless of whether the
impacts are to perennial or intermittent channels. Additionally, mitigation may be
required, if DWQ determines that the channels contain "significant aquatic life" during a
site meeting.
For this project, channels (A), (B) and (C) probably contain significant aquatic life, and
channel (D) almost certainly does not. In order to substantiate this determination, we
would have to sample the channels for aquatic life according to procedures approved by
DWQ, or have one of their staff members visit the site. If necessary, requirements for
mitigation administered by DWQ can be fulfilled through payment of $125.00/ linear foot
to the Wetland Restoration Fund, after an effort to "minimize" impact has been approved.
The third issue is that the project is located in the Neuse River Basin and is therefore
subject to the Neuse Basin Rules (NBR's) which went into effect on July 22, 1997.
According to these new rules, existing vegetative buffers must be maintained around all
lakes/ponds and on each side of perennial/intermittent channels within the Neuse River
Basin. More specifically, this zone is made up of three sections that extend a total of 50
feet from the outer edge of all channels, ponds and lakes surrounded by "forest
vegetation". The inner section is 10 feet wide and it must remain undisturbed (i.e. no
timber can be removed unless it threatens the channel or a structure). The second section
is 20 feet wide, and must contain "forest vegetation" (i.e. only trees with diameters greater
than 12 inches can be removed). The outer section measures 20 feet, and although it too
must contain forest vegetation all construction related activities are prohibited within all
three sections. Possible exceptions to this rule include road crossings, utility crossings and
water dependent structures (i.e. docks, boat ramps etc). Furthermore, sheet flow must be
encouraged within all three sections, and adjacent drainage ditches must be constructed so
that storm water does not form channels through the buffer zone.
Note that DWQ defines an intermittent channel as one that flows for more than 48 hours
after a 10 year or 24 hour storm event. This definition is extremely vague, but based on
the results of several recent site visits with DWQ, we have determined that channels (A)
(B) and (C) will almost certainly have to be buffered. Channel (D) is somewhat
questionable. In other words, the upper limits of the buffer within channel (D) should be
detwetUrpt
measured from point 91. However, certain indicators used by DWQ for this determination
are present up to point #2 (see Preliminary Wetland Map).
Also note that projects that involve timber harvests conducted after the effective date of the
NBR's, may be forced to re-vegetate within the buffer and fines of up to $10,000/day can
be imposed while compliance issues are settled.
The fourth issue is that we observed a sediment and erosion control measure located within
channel (B), which almost certainly meets the current NBR criteria for buffered channels.
It is our understanding that this sediment and erosion control measure is a NBR violation.
Therefore, if this measure was required as part of your sediment and erosion control plan,
we suggest that you retain all relevant documentation.
To proceed with the wetland evaluation process, the following sequence is recommended:
a detailed wetland/channel evaluation; a wetlands/channel survey; an impact evaluation
(site plan vs. wetland/channel); and then a permit application, if necessary.
Permitting Syopsis
S&EC has not reviewed a final site plan nor a wetland survey for this property and cannot
accurately assess the permitting needs. However, applications for Nationwide Permits can
be submitted if the project is designed to impact less than 500 linear feet of channel and
less than 3 acres of wetland. Projects that exceed these impact thresholds require an
Individual Permit which involves a more rigorous analysis to determine whether or not the
proposed impact is the "least environmentally damaging practical alternative". The
individual permit process should be avoided since it typically involves compensatory
mitimation.
Wetland impact permits are issued on a per-project basis as determined by the Corps. In
other words, impacts on parcels that have been sub-divided from larger tracts are
sometimes considered to be cumulative to existing impacts for the original tract. If this is
the case, then thresholds discussed herein may not apply, and any proposed impact to
wetland/channel must be considered with regard to existing permits.
Prior construction notification is not required by the Corps or DWQ for projects that: are
above headwaters, involve the use of only one permit, have less than 150 linear feet of
channel impact and have less than 1/3 acre of wetland impact. Impacts below headwaters
require pre-construction notification to the Corps and DWQ, regardless of the impact area.
Headwaters are defined as a stream with an average flow of 5 ft3/second, or a drainage area
of 3,500 acres.
Impacts resulting from commercial development that require notification to DWQ typically
require a storm water pond.
Projects that involve impacts to wetlands in excess of the 1/3 acre for wetlands, and 150
detwetU rpt
linear feet for channels, may be subjected to the "minimization process" and mitigation.
Mitigation is a complex process that involves planning and monitoring. Under the current
regulations, mitigation typically results from impacts to channels. Channel mitigation is
intended to replace lost significant aquatic function and value. Therefore, this type of
mitigation usually requires that meanders be created within constructed channels.
Furthermore, side-slopes and beds must be re-vegetated, and rip-rap is discouraged.
Mitigation requirements administered by DWQ may also be fulfilled through payment of
$125/linear foot to the Wetland Restoration Fund.
The probability of obtaining permits, permitting requirements and mitigation issues must
be addressed on a case by case basis after the wetland survey has been evaluated with
regard to the site plan.
Please call if you have any questions.
