109 <br /> ATTACHEMENT A <br /> TO BE COMPLETED ONLY IF INVENTORY SITES ARE IDENTIFIED IN I.E. <br /> (ATTACH ADDITIONAL SHEETS IF NECESSARY) <br /> (1) a. Impact on Resource from Proposed Development <br /> • Minor impacts will result from the proposed development due to a road <br /> crossing necessary to provide connectivity between the four proposed <br /> buildings. The crossing has been designed as a perpendicular crossing to <br /> minimize impacts, and is located higher in the watershed where the <br /> stream is smaller to further reduce impact quantities proposed. <br /> Unavoidable impacts to streams, riparian buffers, and floodplains are as <br /> follows: <br /> Streams: 68 linear feet (LF) <br /> Floodplains 0.26 acres (ac.) <br /> Floodway: 2,759 square feet (SF) <br /> Buffer Zone 1: 3,899 square feet (SF) <br /> Buffer Zone 2: 4,838 square feet (SF) <br /> b. Proposed Mitigation <br /> Compensatory mitigation for stream and riparian buffer impacts is not <br /> anticipated to be required by the US Army Corps of Engineers or the NC Division <br /> of Water Resources based on the small quantity of impacts. Perpendicular road <br /> crossings of less than 1/3 d of an acre and less than 150 LF are considered <br /> "allowable" per Neuse River Basin Riparian Buffer Rules. Floodplain impacts will <br /> be minor, and a LOMR has been prepared and submitted to the NC Floodplain <br /> Management Program and is currently under review. <br />
