The project area includes approximately 55 acres, assigned Tax Map 55 -A -201, and located at 39.1682 N and 78.1197 W. It encompasses (west to east) gently sloping grassed uplands into a mix hardwood and softwood forest on the eastern portion of the property. The project area is hereafter referred to as the Site. On November 20 and 21, 2005 Mr. David Martin of F &R perfonned a wetland delineation on the Site in accordance with methods set forth in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetlands Delineation Manual. F &R identified two jurisdictional wetlands; one a low lying wetland swale that enters on the Site's southwestem boundary, exiting shortly thereafter at a property boundary. The second wetland showed surface water movement flowing northeast along the western portion of the Site. This feature apparently is fed by a culvert from an adjacent improvement's storm water detention basin. An isolated circular ditch was observed to be holding water on the top of a hill within the Site's eastern portion. This feature is not considered a part of a natural system, therefore not a jurisdictional Water of the U.S. The Site's features are illustrated on Drawing No.2 in the Attachments.

The USGS Map depicts two intermittent channels; one along the western portion of the Site and one along the eastern portion. F &R observed the western feature to be a jurisdictional wetland with surface flow. The eastern channel was not observed during the site reconnaissance. The man trade ditch within the Site's eastem portion was depicted on the USGS Map. F &R reviewed the National Wetlands Inventory (NWT) Map at http /www.nwi.fws.gov /index.html. The Site's western wetland features are depicted as an intermittent stream in the NWI Map. The man made ditch within the Site's eastern portion was depicted on the NWI Map. F &R reviewed the Frederick County Soil Survey for hydric soils or water features located on the Site. The survey maps the Site into approximately two soil series. Clearbrook Charmer) Series soils associated with the Site's uplands are moderately deep, somewhat poorly drained soils comprising areas that are used for pasture and hay, as well as areas used for cultivated crops and as woodland. The slopes range from 2 -7 percent. The Site's western feature is shown as an intermittent channel within the Weikert-Berks Series. This soil is characteristic shallow, strongly sloping, well drained soils in the valley and on the mountains within Frederick County. The slopes range from 7 -15 percent. The soil survey depicts an internittent channel along the eastern portion of the Site within the Weikert-Berks Series. This channel was not observed during the site reconnaissance. The methodology used for conducting the wetland delineation was in general accordance with the 1987 COE Wetlands Delineation Manual, along with the COE clarification memorandum (dated March 6, 1992). The routine wetland determination, as described in Section D Subsection 3, was employed. F &R walked the Site boundary and made several transects through the property. November 23, 2005 F &R Project No. G62 -393E SITE OBSERVATIONS LIMITATIONS Wetland Delineation Paramount Development— 55 Acres Frederick County, Virginia 3 881 Observations of soil, plants and hydrology were made throughout the project area as necessary to provide the delineation of apparently jurisdictional wetlands. F &R established two Observation Points on the project Site to confirm the location of the wetland boundaries and three Channel Observation Points to define other "Waters of the United States At the Observation Points, a determination of the three criteria for wetlands (hydrophytic vegetation, wetland hydrology and hydric soils) was completed (see Routine Determination Field Data Sheet in Attachments). F &R also noted the presence or absence of an "ordinary high water mark" as a criterion to define "Waters of the United States During the site reconnaissance, F &R identified two jurisdictional wetlands; one a low lying wetland swale that enters on the Site's southwestem boundary, exiting shortly thereafter at a property boundary. The second wetland showed surface water movement flowing northeast along the western portion of the Site. This feature apparently is fed by a culvert from an adjacent improvement's storm water detention basin. An isolated circular ditch was observed to be holding water on the top of a hill within the Site's eastern portion. This feature is not considered a part of a natural system therefore not a jurisdictional Water of the U.S. This Wetland Delineation has been prepared for the exclusive use of Paramount Development and their authorized agents on this specific project. This report has been performed using generally accepted environmental practices and wetland identification and delineation guidelines established by the 1987 USACE Wetlands Delineation Manual.

Norfolk District CORPS OF ENGINEERS FIELD APPROVED JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION Date: January 25, 2006 Applicant: Paramount Development Project Name: Paramount Development Project Number: 05 -B0126 Agent: Froehling Robertson Inc. Project Location: Frederick County This serves as a field approved jurisdictional determination that waters of the United States (including wetlands) are present on this property. Our basis for this determination is the application of the Corps' 1987 Wetland Delineation Manual and the positive indicators of wetland hydrology, hydric soils, and hydrophytic vegetation. The wetland is a waters of the United States and is part of a tributary system to interstate waters (33 CFR 328.3(a)). These waters meet the Corps' definition of waters of the United States and are part of a tributary system to interstate waters (33 CFR 328.3(a)) and have an ordinary high water mark (or high tide line). _x We agree with the wetland delineation as flagged and as described in the letter, report and plans dated November 23, 2005. We agree with the wetland delineation as flagged with the following modifications (a revised map is required): There are jurisdictional waters or wetlands on your property, which are contiguous with We recommend that you have a wetland delineation performed. There are no jurisdictional waters or wetlands on the subject property. All waters /wetlands on the property are isolated and will not require a Depattment of the Army permit. However, a permit may be required from the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality. Any discharge of dredged and/or fill material associated with mechanical land clearing, stumping or grading (such as with an excavator, bulldozer, or root rake), or any filling in jurisdictional areas will require a Department of the Army permit prior to such work occurring. An administrative appeals form is enclosed. This jurisdictional determination is valid for a period of five years from the date of this letter, unless new information warrants revision of the delineation before the expiration date. If you have any questions, please contact the project manager listed below. A condition of this jurisdictional determination is that you maintain the locations of the wetland delineation flags as they are now situated on the site. Once a plan of development is formulated it would be in your best interest to have the actual wetland boundary located by survey and superimposed on any future proposed plan to determine whether jurisdictional wetland would be impacted by the proposed development, and to determine whether a Department of the Army permit would be required.
