Re: Upper Piedmont Regional Landfill, Person County, North Carolina
Dear John:
Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification (DEM Project #951128) was granted to Upper
Piedmont Environmental, Inc. on November 20, 1995 to fill approximately 0.70 acre of wetland or
waters associated with proposed development of the Upper Piedmont Regional Landfill in Person
County. This facility consists of 479 acres located approximately 10 miles east of Roxboro near the
Person County/Granville County line (Figures 1 and 2). Conditions associated with the issued 401
Certification indicated that deed restrictions must be placed on remaining wetlands and streams
(permanent and intermittent) on the property to prevent future fill.
A meeting was held on December 18, 1996 with members of the landfill planning team and DEM
officials, including yourself and Mr. Pete Caldwell, to discuss 401 conditions and mitigation measures.
During the meeting, a decision was made that conservation easements would be placed on selected
stream segments and associated buffers (average buffer widths: 50' to 100') along southern and
eastern portions of the tract. We understand that such measures would function as satisfactory
mitigation for expected wetland/surface water impacts associated with this project. Platted stream
segments targeted for placement under conservation easements are shown on the attached survey
drawings.
This agreement was contingent upon allowing access to interior reaches of the property, which will
involve crossing the dedicated easements. A road crossing of a minor intermittent tributary (0.0099
acre impact) and two wetland crossings for a force main (0.011 acre) will satisfy this access need.
Detailed locations for these amenities are shown on Figures 3 through 6. Total additional impact to
wetlands/surface waters resulting from these actions is 0.021 acre.
A modified PDN application with supplemental support information is hereby submitted for your
review and approval. This application requests permission to impact a total of 0.721 acre of
headwater/surface water wetlands under Nationwide Permit (NWP) #26 (33 CFR 330 Appendix B).
This acreage calculation includes 0.70 acre of impact per our initial request, in addition to the 0.021
acre encroachment resulting from conservation easement crossings.

Mr. John Dorney
Upper Piedmont Regional Landfill
Page 2
Seven (7) copies of the modified PDN application are included with this request. Since impacts will
be less than one (1) acre, notification to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (AEC) is deemed
unnecessary. However, by copy of this letter and application package, we are requesting NWP #26
review and concurrence from the AEC Wilmington District.
Due to the extended nature of this application process and the fact that our client wishes to proceed
with this project immediately, we ask that you review this modification request at your earliest
convenience. If I can provide additional information to assist in your review, please feel free to
contact me.
Sincerely,

DATE.: November 21, 995
SUBJECT: 401 Water Quality Certification for Upper Piedmont Environmental,
Person County, Carolina, Cub Cek, Tar River Basin, 951128
Staff biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission have
reviewed the subject application for 401 Water Quality Certification with respect to
anticipated project impacts on aquatic habitats. Our comments are provided in
accordance with certain provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat.
401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 at seq.), and section 401(b) of the Clean Water Act of
1977 (as amended), and North Carolina Otmeral Statutes (O.S. 113-131 at sN.).
The project involves the construction of a landfill near the intersection of NC 158
and SR 1724 that will destroy 0.70 acres of valuable wetlands. There are a total of 9.10
acres of wetlands on the project site, which is in the Cub Creek drainage of the Tar River
Basin.
The wetlands on this site are of spat ial si ific:ance. btx:auso they help maintain
water quality and downstream habitats for several federal and state listed species, Thu
species found downstream in the Tar River below the confluence of Cub Crmk include:
the dwarf wedge mussel (Ak+smWnta helervdon), federally and stuto cndangcxcd; the
scquawfoot (Staph1w undulaw), a state listed threatenud spocivs; the notched rainbow
07116sa cnnstrlcla) and the t:astan cruukahell (Villoaw delumbis), both significantly rare.
Although no data is available, some of these species are likely to extend up Cub Crock.
We arc also very concerned about toxic leachate from the landfill reaching
downstream habitat. Several of these mussels are very sensitive to pollutants that are

likely to be found in landfill letwhate. There was no information provided on how
leachate would be treated
To help protect downstream water quality and the above listed spo ies, we request
that the following conditions be incorporated into the permit:
1. Destroyed wetland anaa should be mitigated by creating wetland areas adjacent to
existing wetlands and channels at a ratio of 2:1 (created:destroyed).
2. To protect the high quality water and habitat downstream a 300-foot forested
bufer should be maintained or established between disposal areas and perennial
streams

3. .
Deed restrictions should be placed on the property to prevent further wetland
destruction by current or future owners.
4. To prevent remaining wetlands from being destroyed by sediment overloads and
excessive runoff, a 100-foot forested buffer should be maintained between
wetland areas and soil disturbing activities.
5. All stormwater from the site should be routed through wet detention ponds prior
to discharge. Adequate water should be routed to the remaining wetlands to
maintain hydrology.
6. Lcachate from the landfill should be contained and not be discharged to surface
waters.

Re: Upper Piedmont Regional Landfill, Person County, North Carolina
Dear John:
KIT
Upper Piedmont Environmental, Inc. proposes development of a solid waste facility for Person
County to be located at a currently undeveloped site approximately 10 miles east of Roxboro near
the Person County/Granville County line (Figure 1). The site consists of 479 acres at the intersection
of NC 158 and SR 1724 (Figure 2).
Environmental Services, Inc. (ESI) has been retained to assist with environmental planning for the
project. The tract was investigated in March and April, 1995. Studies were conducted to determine
potential presence of protected species, wetlands, and cultural resources.
ESI requested listings of federal protected species from the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service for Person
County prior to initiation of project studies. In addition, N.C. Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP)
files were reviewed for known presence of natural heritage elements. No federal Threatened or
Endangered species are listed for Person County. In addition, no identified sightings are on file with
NCNHP, and no additional information is available for the site (see attached NCNHP correspondence
dated May 22, 1995).
This project has been coordinated with the N.C. Division of Archives and History, State Historic
Preservation Office (SHPO). SHPO files were researched during initial planning, followed by a Phase
I investigation of the property. Eight (8) archaeological sites were identified, but none were
considered eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Recent correspondence from SHPO
(attached correspondence dated September 20, 1995) concurred with this determination.
Wetlands and surface water areas subject to jurisdictional consideration under Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act (33 CAR 320 et seq.) have been identified and delineated. Wetlands are restricted
to three (3) small pockets located at the origin of minor streams on the subject property (0.28 acre).
Remaining jurisdictional areas are confined to surface waters within small linear drainage channels
(2.16 acres), and a series of small farm impoundments sporadically located along drainageways (6.66
acres). Wetlands were confirmed by Mr. Eric Alsmeyer, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) on
May 2, 1995 (see attached wetland map signed June 7, 1995).
ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC.
Mr. John Dorney
October 19, 1995
Page 2
Every effort has been made to avoid encroachment into jurisdictional areas whenever possible.
Careful site planning has been undertaken to position landfill disposal cells on high ground sites. An
erosion and sediment control plan has been prepared and submitted to the N.C. Division of Solid
Waste Management. Buffers will be enforced between all construction areas and identified
jurisdictional sites. Surface water and groundwater will receive regular monitoring in an effort in to
insure protection of area water quality. Because of these avoidance and minimization efforts,
encroachment has been limited to 0.70 acre of wetlands/surface waters on the subject property (see
Figure 3).
Given the extent of anticipated impacts (less than 1 acre) and the nature of these jurisdictional areas
(i.e. headwater wetlands/surface waters and impoundments), we believe that encroachment can be
authorized under Nationwide Permit #26 (CFR 330 Appendix B). Since impacts will be less than one
(1) acre, COE notification is deemed unnecessary. However, by copy of this letter, we are requesting
NWP #26 review and concurrence from the Wilmington COE District.
In support of NWP #26 issuance, 401 Water Quality Certification is required from the N.C. Division
of Environmental Management (DEM). We understand that DEM has review authority over NWP
#26 activities where impacts exceed 0.33 acre. Therefore, we are providing a completed Pre-
discharge Notification (PDN) application along with appropriate support information. Seven (7)
copies are included with this request.
If I can provide additional information to assist in your review of this project, please feel free to
contact me at your convenience.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Hodges:
Division of Archives and History
William S. Price, Jr.. Director
We have reviewed the archaeological survey report by Greg C. Smith and Keith H.
Ashley of Environmental Services, Inc., and offer our comments.
For purposes of compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation
Act, the following properties were determined not eligible for listing in the National
Register of Historic Places:
31 PR73 The small size of the site and the eroded nature of the soils
precludes any significant contribution to our understanding of
history or prehistory.
31 PR74 The small size of the site and the lack of diagnostic artifacts
precludes any significant contribution to our understanding of
history or prehistory.
31 PR75 The small size of the site and paucity of artifacts precludes any
significant contribution to our understanding of history or
prehistory.
31 PR76 The lack of diagnostic artifacts makes it unlikely that the site
would contribute significantly to our understanding of history or
prehistory.
31 PR77 The low artifact density and eroded nature of the site makes it
unlikely that the site would contribute significantly to our
understanding of history or prehistory.
31 PR78 The paucity of artifacts and the lack of integrity makes it unlikely
that the site would contribute significantly to our understanding
of history or prehistory.

Re: Upper Piedmont Regional Landfill, Person County, North Carolina
Dear John:
°15IIzg

Upper Piedmont Environmental, Inc. proposes development of a solid waste facility for Person
County to be located at a currently undeveloped site approximately 10 miles east of Roxboro near
the Person County/Granville County line (Figure 1). The site consists of 479 acres at the intersection
of NC 158 and SR 1724 (Figure 2).
Environmental Services, Inc. (ESI) has been retained to assist with environmental planning for the
project. The tract was investigated in March and April, 1995. Studies were conducted to determine
potential presence of protected species, wetlands, and cultural resources.
ESI requested listings of federal protected species from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service for Person
County prior to initiation of project studies. In addition, N.C. Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP)
files were reviewed for known presence of natural heritage elements. No federal Threatened or
Endangered species are listed for Person County. In addition, no identified sightings are on file with
NCNHP, and no additional information is available for the site (see attached NCNHP correspondence
dated May 22, 1995).
This project has been coordinated with the N.C. Division of Archives and History, State Historic
Preservation Office (SHPO). SHPO files were researched during initial planning, followed by a Phase
I investigation of the property. Eight (8) archaeological sites were identified, but none were
considered eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. Recent correspondence from SHPO
(attached correspondence dated September 20, 1995) concurred with this determination.
Wetlands and surface water areas subject to jurisdictional consideration under Section 404 of the
Clean Water Act (33 CAR 320 et seg.) have been identified and delineated. Wetlands are restricted
to three (3) small pockets located at the origin of minor streams on the subject property (0.28 acre).
Remaining jurisdictional areas are confined to surface waters within small linear drainage channels
(2.16 acres), and a series of small farm impoundments sporadically located along drainageways (6.66
acres). Wetlands were confirmed by Mr. Eric Alsmeyer, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) on
May 2, 1995 (see attached wetland map signed June 7, 1995).
ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES, INC.
Mr. John Dorney
October 19, 1995
Page 2
Every effort has been made to avoid encroachment into jurisdictional areas whenever possible.
Careful site planning has been undertaken to position landfill disposal cells on high ground sites. An
erosion and sediment control plan has been prepared and submitted to the N.C. Division of Solid
Waste Management. Buffers will be enforced between all construction areas and identified
jurisdictional sites. Surface water and groundwater will receive regular monitoring in an effort in to
insure protection of area water quality. Because of these avoidance and minimization efforts,
encroachment has been limited to 0.70 acre of wetlands/surface waters on the subject property (see
Figure 3).
Given the extent of anticipated impacts (less than I acre) and the nature of these jurisdictional areas
(i.e. headwater wetlands/surface waters and impoundments), we believe that encroachment can be
authorized under Nationwide Permit #26 (CFR 330 Appendix B). Since impacts will be less than one
(1) acre, COE notification is deemed unnecessary. However, by copy of this letter, we are requesting
NWP #26 review and concurrence from the Wilmington COE District.
In support of NWP #26 issuance, 401 Water Quality Certification is required from the N.C. Division
of Environmental Management (DEM). We understand that DEM has review authority over NWP
#26 activities where impacts exceed 0.33 acre. Therefore, we are providing a completed Pre-
discharge Notification (PDN) application along with appropriate support information. Seven (7)
copies are included with this request.
If I can provide additional information to assist in your review of this project, please feel free to
contact me at your convenience.

Re: Archaeological survey 'report. for Person County
Landfill, ER 96-7305
Dear Mr. Hodges:
Division of Archives and History
William S. Price, Jr.. Director
We have reviewed the archaeological survey report by Greg C. Smith and Keith H.
Ashley of Environmental Services, Inc., and offer our comments.
For purposes of compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation
Act, the following properties were determined not eligible for listing in the National
Register of Historic Places:
31 PR73 The small size of the site and the eroded nature of the soils
precludes any significant contribution to our understanding of
history or prehistory.
31 PR74 The small size of the site and the lack of diagnostic artifacts
precludes any significant contribution to our understanding of
history or prehistory.
31 PR75 The small size of the site and paucity of artifacts precludes any
significant contribution to our understanding of history or
prehistory.
31 PR76 The lack of diagnostic artifacts makes it unlikely that the site
would contribute significantly to our understanding of history or
prehistory.
31 PR77 The low artifact density and eroded nature of the site makes it
unlikely that the site would contribute significantly to our
understanding of history or prehistory.
31 PR78 The paucity of artifacts and the lack of integrity makes it unlikely
that the site would contribute significantly to our understanding
of history or prehistory.

31 PR79 The low artifact density makes it unlikely that the site would
contribute significantly to our understanding of history or

31 PR80 The paucity of artifacts and the eroded nature of the soils
precludes any significant contribution to our understanding of
history or prehistory.
The report meets our office's guidelines and those of the Secretary of the Interior.
The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic
Preservation Act and the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation's Regulations
for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR Part 800.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions
