Box 17300 Fort Worth, Texas 76102-0300 Re: Request for verification of a jurisdictional determination for a +~31.5 acre site on Sandy Lake Road in the City of Coppell, Dallas County, Texas Dear Mr. Hatcher: Halff Associates, Inc. (Halff) has been contracted by the Myers & Crow Company to perform a Section 404 jurisdictional determination and permitting assessment for a +31.5 acre site on Sandy Lake Road in the City of Coppell, Dallas County, Texas. The subject property is located in the far northwest comer of Dallas County, east of State Highway (SH) 121 and north of Sandy Lake Road (formerly Thweat Road), as shown on Figure 1 - Project Vicinity Map and Figure 2 - Project Location Map. The property is being considered for potential future development as a commercial business park. BACKGROUND INFORMATION According to the USGS quadrangle map "Grapevine, Texas" (1981) (Figure 2), the subject property is shown adjacent to and north of Thweat Road (now Sandy Lake Road) east of SH 121. The property is shown primarily as vacant land with three small structures on the southeast comer. The headwaters of a small stream and an on-channel pond are depicted within the property boundary on the USGS map. The stream is shown beginning immediately south of Thweat Road, traversing the southeast comer of the subject property in a southwest to northeast direction, and continuing onto the adjacent property to the east, where the stream terminates at a mined area adjacent to and west of Coppell Road. What is assumed to be the continuation of the same stream (an unnamed tributary of Denton Creek) is shown resuming east of Coppell Road approximately 1,200 feet northeast of the on-site stream terminus at the aforementioned mined area. The USFWS National Wetlands Inventory (NWI) map "Grapevine, Texas" (1992) (Figure 3) shows the same features as the USGS map, but the small stream is not categorized. The on-site pond is depicted as two aquatic habitats, with the southern portion of the pond labeled as a diked/impounded, temporarily flooded, persistent, emergent habitat and the northern portion of the pond labeled as a diked/impounded, pern~.anently flooded, unconsolidated bottom habitat. No other aquatic features are mapped within the subject property on the NWI [nap. The subject property is depicted on Sheet I of the Soil Survey of Dallas County (1980) (Figure 4). The pond shown on the USGS and NWI maps can be seen on the background aerial photograph, but the stream is not mapped and it cannot be seen on the background aerial photograph. The only portion of stream that is mapped on the Soil Survey in the vicinity of the subject property is the unnamed tributary of Denton Creek that begins immediately east of Coppell Road (2,500 linear feet northeast of the subject DALLAS · FORTWORTH · HOUSTON ° McALLEN ° AUSTIN TRANSPORTATION · WATER RESOURCES · LAND DEVELOPMENT ° MUNICIPAL · ENVIRONMENTAL · STRUCTURAL MECHANICAL ° ELECTRICAL · SURVEYING · GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS ARCHITECTURE * LANOSCAPE ARCHITECTURE · PLANNING Halff Associates ENGINEERS · ARCHITECTS · SCIENTISTS PLANNERS · SURVEYORS January 8, 2004 Page 2 of 4 property). The Soil Survey does not map any stream channels between SH 121 and Coppell Road north of Sandy Lake Road. Mapped soils on the subject property include Crockett fine sandy loam, 1 to 3 percent slopes; Mabank fine sandy loam, 0 to I percent slopes; Silawa fine sandy loam, t to 3 percent slopes; Silawa fine sandy loam, 2 to 8 percent slopes, eroded; and Wilson clay loam, 0 to 1 percent slopes. The Crockett soil is a deep, gently sloping, moderately well drained soil located on uplands. The Mabank soil is a deep, nearly level, somewhat poorly drained soil located in slight depressions on uplands. The Silawa soils are deep, gently sloping to sloping, well drained soils located on uplands. The Wilson soil is a deep, nearly level, somewhat poorly drained soil located on uplands. None of these soils exhibit characteristics that are conducive to the formation of hydric soil conditions and none is identified on the Hydric Soils of Texas list (1995). The FEMA Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) for Dallas County and Incorporated Areas, Map Number 48113C0135 J (August 23, 2001) (Figure $), shows the property within Zone X (unshaded), which indicates areas determined to be outside the 500-year floodplain. The on-site stream shown on the USGS and NWl maps is not depicted on the FIRM and, like the Soil Survey, the only portion of stream that is mapped in the vicinity of the subject property is the unnamed tributary of Denton Creek that begins east of Coppell Road (northeast of the subject property). Also like the Soil Survey, the F1RM does not map any streams between SH 121 and Coppell Road north of Thweat (Sandy Lake) Road. The City of Coppell topographic map (approximately 1999) (Figure 6) of the subject property and surrounding area depicts the on-site pond and a short segment of stream channel south of the pond. These features are apparently fed by stormwater from adjacent developments and roadways. No stream is shown north (downstream) of the pond; only topographic gradients are depicted. Two streams are shown on the property adjacent to and west of Coppell Road (a distance of approximately 2,500 linear feet) and although the map extent does not show the properties to the north, it is assumed that the easternmost of these two streams is the unnamed tributary of Denton Creek that is mapped on other resources as beginning immediately east of Coppell Road. There are no streams or apparent hydrologic connections shown between the on-site pond and the unnamed tributary of Denton Creek located on the property adjacent to and west of Coppell Road. Whereas the USGS and NWI maps showed the on-site stream flowing onto the adjacent property to the east and terminating at a nfined area, the City topographic map does not show any channel down-gradient of the on-site pond. The mined area shown on the USGS and NWI maps is the approximate location where the unnamed tributary of Denton Creek begins on the City topographic map. SITE INVESTIGATION Halff environmental staff performed a site investigation of the subject property and surrounding area on December 11, 2003. Field conditions were dry and the majority of the property appeared to be vacant land used as a horse pasture. The majority of the property consisted of upland vegetation (scattered mesquite within a mixture of native and introduced grasses). Wooded areas were limited to fence lines, areas adjacent to the pond, and the easternmost portion of the property. The southeast corner of the property had several small structures associated with a horse corral. I Halff Associates ENGINEERS · ARCHITECTS ° SCIENTISTS PLANNERS ' SURVEYORS January 8, 2004 Page 3 of 4 Using as a guide the resources previously described, the subject property was surveyed for any aquatic features and particular attention was paid to the tributary system. The "headwaters" of the on-site stream originated off-site south of Sandy Lake Road along Royal Lane where a topographic gradient develops into a roadside ditch on the western edge of Royal Lane (see Figure 6 and site photographs in Appendix B). This ditch then flows under Royal Lane south of Sandy Lake Road through two approximately 3' x 5' box culverts and flows eastward along the south side of Sandy Lake Road as a roadside ditch. On the east side of Royal Lane, south of Sandy Lake Road, a small pipe culvert discharges into another roadside ditch that flows north into the roadside ditch south of Sandy Lake Road. The Sandy Lake Road ditch flows eastward for approximately 500 feet, then tums north and flows under Sandy Lake Road onto the subject property. All of the channels just described south of Sandy Lake Road were dry, fully vegetated, and maintained by regular mowing. Upon entering the southern edge of the subject property, the stream flows northeast for approximately 200 feet. This segment of stream has a small definable channel with an ordinary high water mark (ohwm) of approximately 12-18 inches. The stream flows into a small wooded area where it loses any definable channel characteristics. The small wooded area also comprises the southern edge of the on-site pond. The pond is an apparent stock pond and is currently associated with the equine activities located on the southeast comer of the property. The pond is approximately 1.8 acres in size and there was no definable channel observed down-gradient from the pond. Approximately 100 feet northeast of the pond's dam a narrow, shallow channel resumes. This channel has an ohwm of approximately 18 inches and was filled in several locations with debris (primarily tree limbs) (see site photographs in Appendix B). A second narrow, shallow channel flows from the north into the first channel near the eastern property line, which is demarcated by a fence. All of the on-site channels are headwater ephemeral streams and none exhibited prolonged hydrology necessary to maintain channel flow characteristics. On the adjacent property to the east, just on the other side of the fence line, was an approximately 4-foot tall ridge that appeared to be a sanitary sewer line, as there was a manhole adjacent to the channel. Interestingly, the channel becomes much more defined on the adjacent property and previous site investigations conducted on this adjacent property by Halff and others revealed that the stream channel flows northeast across the property and terminates at a large depression. There is no evidence of a channel down-gradient (east) of the depression and the nearest tributary is located along Coppell Road, approximately 1,200 feet to the northeast. Observations from Coppell Road reveal a grouted dp-rap flume on the west side of the road that appears tO be the beginning of the unnamed tributary of Denton Creek shown on the map resources. Up-gradient of the flume was a cattle pasture and no definable channel was observed. There are three approximately 4' x 6' box culverts under Coppell Road and east of the road is a grouted, rip-rap lined trapezoidal channel that flows through a residential area (see site photographs in Appendix B). CONCLUSION Field observations are consistent with the map resources and all available information indicates that the stream system and pond located on the subject property are isolated. There is no hydrologic connection between the on-site aquatic features and the nearest tribntary system, which is approximately 1,200 feet to Halff Associates ENGINEERS-ARCHITECTS-SCIENTISTS PLANNERS.SURVEYORS January 8, 2004 Page 4 of 4 the northeast of where the stream terminates on the adjacent property to the east. Therefore, it is Halff's opinion that the on-site features are non-jurisdictional due to isolation. Halff and the Myers & Crow Company request a verification of this jurisdictional determination. We would be happy to meet with you either at your office or in the field to discuss this issue and clarify any questions you may have. Attached for your review are maps, figures, aerial photography, and color site photographs depicting current site conditions. We look forward to working with you on this project.
