4a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this application:*
The general land -use in the vicinity of the project is characterized as opened forested area, residential and commercial developments. To the East of the project is a Mesic Mixed Forest
and a new multi use development is being proposed (Centerpoint). On the West of the project is the Eastport residential subdivision. North and South of the project is mostly commercial
development.

4f. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
0.067
4g. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams on the property:
525 (Intermittent)
4h. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:*
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is proposing a Northwest quadrant connection between US 74 (Eastwood Road) and SR 1409 (Military Cutoff Road). The
south end of this proposed connection will create a new signalized intersection along Eastwood Road located approximately 800 feet west of Military Cutoff Road, whereas the north end
ties into the existing intersection of Military Cutoff Road at Drysdale Drive (and is thus tentatively named Drysdale Drive E)tension). Removing left turns from the main intersection
improves the efficiency of the intersection.
4i. Describe the overall project in detail, including indirect impacts and the type of equipment to be used:*
The proposed project will construct a 4 lane variable width median roadway on new location. The project will also include a multiuse path and sidewalk. A stormwater pond for the
Eastport subdivision will have to be relocated. The pond will be owned and managed by the City of Wilmington. The project will impact a small depression wetland and 525 linear feet of
an intermittent UT to Bradley Creek. However only 372 linear feet are considered loss of Waters of the US. Included in the proposed permanent impacts are 91 linear feet of channel
improvements to correct vertical stream banks and to remove sediment prohibiting positive flow. The project also includes 62 linear feet of stream relocation which is required to
accommodate a planned development (CenterPoint) that is proposed adjacent to the project.
Standard road building equipment such as trucks, bulldozers and excavators will be used to construct the project.

3j. Comments:
Only 372 If. of stream is permanent loss of waters of the U.S. that requires mitigation. Channel improvements involves correcting vertical banks and
removing sediment to restore positive flow. The channel relocation will be constructed to the existing stream dimensions but with flatter and more
stable slopes. This reach of stream has been modified by excavation and currently unstable.
E. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
1a. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing the project:
Slopes throughout the project are being proposed at 3:1 to minimize impacts. Stream impacts have been minimized to the maximum extent practicable
and open channels have been utilized as much as possible given the constraints on this project requirements and the adjacent proposed
development.
1 b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques:
All utilities relocation will be installed within the e>asting roadway fill section. Appropriate BMP's will be used throughout the project to prevent offsite
sediment and turbidity.
2. Compensatory Mitigation for Impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State
2a. Does the project require Compensatory Mitigation for impacts to Waters of the U.S. or Waters of the State?
