This large parcel is irregular in shape and is located on the northeast side of Carmel. This property is significant not only in size but also in that it serves as a gateway to Carmel from both Noblesville and Fishers. More specifically, it is adjacent to and south of 146th Street, both east and west of River Road, north of and adjacent to Prairie View Elementary, and northeast of and adjacent to Cherry Creek Estates and several larger single family tracts that have direct access to Cherry Tree Road. As planned, The Legacy will provide and emphasize traditional neighborhood design concepts, with a subtle transition from the more standard neighborhood concepts that utilize curvilinear street patterns and are of a single use. The plan will incorporate an eclectic mix of office, retail, assisted living, single family attached, multi family, and single family detached components, all on one property. There will be in excess of 45% open space, over 7 miles of trails, woodland preservation, expansive views, an amenity center, and a hierarchal road system that provides for interconnectivity via existing roads and neighborhoods to important county thoroughfares, thus providing multiple paths for that travel. Perhaps most notably, The Legacy will be a multi-generational community that will provide housing options for people at all stages in the cycle of life. The Legacy contemplates 1316 residential dwellings or approximately 2.7 units per acre. Housing types will vary and transition from attached townhomes and apartments adjacent to the office and retail or high traffic areas, to traditional neighborhood areas that are reminiscent of those planned and designed in the 1940's. Neighborhood interaction is encouraged not only in the Legacy's walkability, but also iu its design coucepts that emphasize people rather thau automobiles. Moviug further from the commercial areas, the neighborhood will transitiou to wider more spacious homesites that will provide for the needs of a wide spectrum of residents, from high end empty nesters wanting a maintenance free lifestyle, to families wanting a yard to maintain and enjoy. Regardless of the area within The Legacy in which one chooses to live, an informal lifestyle will be emphasized, one that encourages people in different stages of life to mix and socialize. The Legacy will truly be a neighborhood where one can live, work and play without dependence on the automobile. It will be a place, a neighborhood, a destination, that will be as unique and beautiful as it is functional. ( , ,., LEGEND I i1M; UGACCY ~ ~ .. RETAIL .. OFFICE ..

Re: Legacy The following is the requested Woodland Analysis for the Legacy development property located at the southwest corner of the intersection of 146th Street and River Road in Carmel, Hamilton County, Indiana. Please refer to the aerial photo and the photo documentation (appendix A and B) when reading this report. This report contains lists of all flora and fauna discovered during the inspection (appendix C). The Legacy property is currently agricultural land with several farm buildings located on the eastern edge along River Road as well as several dilapidated barns in the western portion. The land is located in a semi- rural area that is surrounded by new residential developments. The property can be divided in to 4 sections. The tree line located in Section A is located on the far west end of the property and borders several residential properties. Black cherry, white mulberry, and hackberry are the species most prevalent in this section, with young black walnut, sassafras, and honey locust also present. This area would be classified as "young woodland" according to Carmel's Subdivision Control Ordinance ROSa III definitions (7.05.07). Section B is located in the western portion of the property. This area includes scattered groupings of trees that extend from the northern end of the south tree line (Section C) to 146th Street. There are a few large trees scattered through this section with most of the growth still relatively young. This area would be classified as "young woodland" according to Carmel's Subdivision Control Ordinance ROSa III definitions (7.05.07). Section C is located in the southwest portion of the property and borders a residential community. This tree line is very sparse and is comprised of a few scattered hackberry, ash, elm, and white mulberry trees. Section D is located in the center of the property and is surrounded on all sides by agricultural fields. There are many large trees scattered throughout this woodland but the majority of the trees are less than 12" in dbh. There are many mature trees distributed throughout this section, which includes large sugar maple, red oak, shagbark hickory, black walnut, and pignut hickory. This area would be classified as "young woodland" according to Carmel's Subdivision Control Ordinance ROSa III definitions (7.05.07). As always, any trees that are preserved should be properly managed prior to clearing or construction including early fertilization, pruning and crown cleaning to reduce risk and liability. Trees should also be protected during all phases of development and construction to maximize their chances of survival. Please contact us if there are any questions about this work. We appreciate this opportunity to work with you. Thank you, Judson R. Scott President, Vine & Branch Inc. Registered Consulting Arborist #392 American Society of Consulting Arborists Patrick Grecu, Natural Resource Specialist Indiana Accredited Horticulturalist #1418 4721 East 146th Street, Carmel, IN. 46033. 317.846.3778 o Location Legacy Property The property is located on the southwest corner of the intersection of 146th Street and River Road in Carmel, Indiana Assignment and Scope of Work 1. Inspect the property and provide an analysis of the natural resources. 2. Mark these natural resources on an aerial photo. 3. Rate the wooded areas. 4. Note and mark any unusual or exceptional trees or landmarks. 5. Record species of flora and fauna found on site. 6. Photo-document property if requested. Limitations Inspections were conducted May 9,2006. As such, they are limited by the time frame and present field conditions. These are not long-term observations that would be needed to fully represent the full spectrum of plants and animals, which use the land over the course of the year and the changing seasons. Summer and fall blooming plants, as well as migrating animals are some of the categories that are not represented in this report. u Methodology All areas in the scope of work were inspected on foot. Tallies of the tree species were taken by species and size. The property was separated into different areas defined by changes in tree, plant, or land cover characteristics. These areas are plotted on the aerial photo attached as Appendix A. All animals and birds seen, heard, or found evident by sign were noted. Plants seen along the way were also noted. All plants, animals and other life noted during the inspection are listed in the appendices. More complete lists could be obtained through more intensive investigations. Findings This property is currently an agricultural property with several farm buildings located on the eastern edge along River Road as well as several dilapidated barns in the western portion. The vast majority of the property is agricultural fields and pasture lands, with a wooded area located in the center. The property borders 146th Street on the north, River Road on the east, residential developments on the west and southwest, and Prairie Trace Elementary School on the south. The topography on the site is flat with the exception of a small rise that is present in the western portion. The property is located in a semi-rural area that is surrounded by new residential developments. The property can be divided into four major areas: the west tree line (Section A), the scattered groupings of trees in the western portion (Section B), the south tree line (Section C), and the central woodland (Section D). u Vine & Branch, Inc. Judson R. Scott, ReA #392 317.846.1424 East Carmel, LLC./Legacy PJG 2006.5.10 Page 3 of 33 Specific Area Descriptions (see map and photos in Appendix A & B) The following descriptions will list the general description of each area including dominant tree species and any other conditions or flora/fauna not found on the rest of the property. u Section A: West Tree Line This tree line is located on the far west end of the property and borders several residential properties. Black cherry, white mulberry, and hackberry are the species most prevalent in this section, with young black walnut, sassafras, and honey locust also present. This tree line has very thick undergrowth in many places including black raspberry, multiflora rose, amur honeysuckle, and autumn olive. Many of the large trees that are in this area appear to be on the neighboring properties. Many of the trees in this section would be good to preserve because they provide a buffer for the neighboring properties. This area would be classified as "young woodland" according to Carmel's Subdivision Control Ordinance ROSO III definitions (7.05.07). Trees present in this area include: . Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) . Shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) . Hackberry (Celtis occidentalis) . Hawthorn (Crataegus sp.) . Honey locust (Gleditsia triacanthos) . Black walnut (Juglans nigra) . Eastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana) . White mulberry (Morus alba) . Black cherry (Prunus serotina) . Sassafras (Sassafras albidum) u Section B: Scattered GrouDinas of Trees in West Portion of ProDertY This section is located in the western portion of the property. This area includes scattered groupings of trees that extend from the northern end of the south tree line (Section C) to 146th Street. The southernmost grouping includes many black locust, hackberry, and young black walnut; many of these black locust are in poor condition. The ground layer in this section is comprised on pasture grasses, a few woodland forbs, and field weeds. The grouping of trees in the west portion of this section includes Ohio buckeye, black locust, black walnut, hackberry, and black cherry. These trees surround several old farm buildings in disrepair and line the dirt road that runs from 146th Street through this section. There are a few large trees scattered through this section with most of the growth still relatively young. The east grouping of trees in this area is comprised of black cherry, white mulberry, and black locust while the north end of this area that extends to 146th Street includes a few scattered mature black walnuts, but is mostly very young growth. Many of these trees would be good candidates for preservation because they would have value in a residential landscape setting. This area would be classified as "young woodland" according to Carmel's Subdivision Control Ordinance ROSa III definitions (7.05.07). Trees present in this area include: . Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) . Ohio buckeye (Aesculus glabra) . Gray dogwood (Comus racemosa) . Shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) . Hackberry (Celtis occidentalis) . White ash (Fraxinus americana) . Honey locust (Gleditsia triacanthos) . Black walnut (Juglans nigra) . White mulberry (Morus alba) . Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) · Red elm (Ulmus rubra) u Vine & Branch, Inc. Judson R. Scott, RCA #392 317.846.1424 East Carmel, LLC.lLegacy PJG 2006.5.10 Page 4 of 33 u Section C: South Tree Line This section is located in the southwest portion of the property and borders a residential community. This tree line is very sparse and is comprised of a few scattered hackberry, ash, elm, and white mulberry trees. The northern portion of this tree line is adjacent to a woodland on a neighboring property and includes a number of field weeds such as multiflora rose and black raspberry, and a few more scattered trees. This tree line doesn't provide any screening or buffering to neighboring properties. Trees present in this area include: . Hackberry (Celtis occidentalis) . White ash (Fraxinus americana) . White mulberry (Morus alba) . Red elm (Ulmus rubra) . Siberian elm (Ulmus pumila) Section D: Central Woodland This section is located in the center of the property and is surrounded on all sides by agricultural fields. There are many large trees scattered throughout this section but the majority of the trees are less than 12" in dbh. Some of the large trees include: red oak (24"+), black walnut (24"+), sugar maple (28"+), shagbark hickory (24"+), and pignut hickory (24"+). There is very heavy ground layer growth of avens, mayapple, Virginia creeper, and poison ivy and a large number of young sugar maples in the understory. There are a number of trees in this wooded section that would have a high value in a landscape setting. This area would be classified as "young woodland" according to Carmel's Subdivision Control Ordinance ROSO III definitions (7.05.07). u Trees present in this area include: . Sugar maple (Acer saccharum) . Pignut hickory (Carya glabra) . Shagbark hickory (Carya ovata) . Hackberry (Celtis occidentalis) . Hawthorn (Crataegus sp.) . White ash (Fraxinus americana) . Black walnut (Juglans nigra) . Eastern hophornbeam (Ostrya virginiana) . Black cherry (prunus serotina) . Red oak (Quercus rubra) . Black locust (Robinia pseudoacacia) . American elm (Ulmus americana) . Red elm (Ulmus rubra) . Siberian elm (Ulmus pumila) Discussion This vast majority of the land use of this property is for agricultural use. There is a large wooded area in the center of the property and scattered groupings of trees in the western portion. Section A has weedy, weak wooded species such as black cherry and white mulberry for the most part, with other species scattered along the tree line. This area is important to preserve because it does provide a buffer between this development and the neighboring properties. Section B includes scattered groupings of trees with mostly black locust, hackberry, black walnut, white mulberry, and black cherry. There is a lot of young growth in this section especially in the southern and northern portions. This section has many old farm buildings that have collapsed as well as a few abandoned vehicles. There are several mature trees throughout this section that would be good candidates for preservation and would benefit the residents of this community. This section also provides shelter, food, foraging areas, and nesting grounds for the variety of wildlife in the area. Section C is a very sparse tree line that has some thick undergrowth in places but very few trees. U Hackberry and white mulberry account for most of the trees present along this fence line. Vine & Branch, Inc. Judson R. Scott, RCA #392 317.846.1424 East Carmel, LLC./Legacy PJG 2006.5.10 Page 5 of 33 u Section D is a wooded area present in the center of the property and contains the majority of the trees on the site. There are many mature trees distributed throughout this section, which includes large sugar maple, red oak, shagbark hickory, black walnut, and pignut hickory. There is a lot of young sugar maple growth in the understory of this woodland especially in the open areas in the canopy and along the edges where it borders the agricultural fields. This area provides a habitat for wildlife and would be a great woodland to preserve for the community to encourage interaction with nature. Planning for the preservation of these trees would increase the value of the property and the marketability of the site. They are an irreplaceable asset to the community. Any trees that are to be preserved near future home sites should be individually assessed to determine the health and structural integrity of each tree. Proper care will help maximize the long-term health of the tree and to minimize potential risks.

Transportation Engineer III u u u LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA TRAFFIC OPERATIONS ANALYSIS INTRODUCTION This TRAFFIC OPERATIONS ANALYSIS, prepared at the request of Hamilton County and the City of Carmel, on behalf of East Cmmel, LLC, is for a proposed mixed-use development that will be constructed along 146th Street and River Road in Cmmel, Indiana. PURPOSE The purpose of this analysis is to determine what effect traffic generated by the proposed development, when fully occupied, will have on the existing adjacent roadway system. This analysis will identify any roadway deficiencies that may exist today or that may occur when this site is developed. Conclusions will be reached that will determine if the roadway system can accommodate the anticipated traffic volumes or will determine the modifications that will be required to the system if it is determined there will be deficiencies in the system resulting from the increased traffic volumes. Recommendations will be made that will address the conclusions resulting from this analysis. These recommendations will address feasible roadway system improvements which will accommodate the proposed development tranic volumes such that there will be safe ingress and egress, to and from the proposed development, with minimal interference to traffic on the public street system. SCOPE OF WORK The scope of work for this analysis is as follows: First, to obtain peak hour manual traffic volume counts at the intersection of 1461h Street and River Road. Second, to estimate the number of new trips that will be generated by the proposed mixed-use development. Third, to assign the generated traffic volumes to the driveways and/or roadways that will serve to provide access to the proposed development. u u u LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA. TRAFFIC OPERATIONS ANALYSIS Fourth, to distribute the generated traffic volumes from the proposed development onto the public roadway system and intersections that have been identified as the study area. Fifth, to prepare a capacity analysis and level of service analysis for each intersection included in the study area considering each of the following scenarios: . Existing Traffic Volumes - Based on existing roadway conditions and traffic volumes. . Existing + Proposed Development - New traffic volumes that will be generated by the proposed development added to the existing traffic volumes. Finally, to prepare a TRAFFIC OPERATIONS ANALYSIS documenting all data, analyses, conclusions and recommendations to provide for the safe and efficient movement of traffic through the study area. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT The proposed development is to be located along 1461h Street and River Road in Carmel, Indiana. As proposed, the development will consist of retail, general office, and residential land uses. Access to the proposed development will be provided along both 146th Street and along River Road. A roadway connection in the southwest comer of the site will be made to the existing Cherry Tree Boulevard which will then provide access to the site from Hazel Dell Parkway. Figure 1 is an area map showing the location of the proposed development and its associated access points. STUDY AREA The study area has been defined to include the following intersections: . 146th Street & River Road . All proposed access points Figure 1 is an area map showing the location of the study intersections. 2 [\ l/ I : .J \ ""\ .-/ g 8 J. ~ ]: 1i "" ~ I ! ?i -~ '\ ) ----a ~ ~ , N ALL DISTANCES ARE APPROXIMATE LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA 3 '\, LAND USE LEGEND IBLOCKS'1' -,II) t. ." ;' 1 SINGLE FAMILY RESIDEHTlAL lOTS TOWNHOIIES t''', If, .., N. 1 r 0'1 L;"a;;::] IIULn-FAIIILY (APARTIIENTS) ASSISTED UVING FACIUTY OrnCE SUITES NEIGHBORHOOD RETAIL CENTER ACCESS TO DEVELOPMENT CD PROPOSED ACCESS ONE @ PROPOSED ACCESS tWO @ PROPOSED ACCESS THREE @ PROPOSED ACCESS FOUR @ PROPOSED ACCESS f1VE @ PROPOSED ACCESS SIX Q) PROPOSED ACCESS SEVEN @ PROPOSED ACCESS EIGHT @ PROPOSED ACCESS NINE FIGURE 1 AREA MAP @A c!c F Engineering Co., LLC 2006 "ALL Rights Reserved" u u u LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA TRAFFIC OPERA nONS ANALYSIS DESCRIPTION OF THE ABUTTING STREET SYSTEM This proposed development would be served by the public roadway system that includes l461h Street, River Road and Chen)' Tree Boulevard. 1 46TH STREET - is an east/west four lane, divided roadway that travels through Carmel. The posted speed limit along this roadway in the vicinity of the site is 45 mph. RIVER ROAD - is a north/south two lane roadway that travels from l161h Street and past 146111 Street. The posted speed limit along this roadway in the vicinity of the site is 40 mph. CHERRY TREE BOULEVARD - is an east/west two lane roadway that travels from Hazel Dell Parkway through the Cherry Tree Estates subdivision. A roadway connection in the southwest corner of the site will be made to Cherry Tree Boulevard which will then provide access to the site from Hazel Dell Parkway. 146111 Street & River Road - This intersection is controlled with an automatic traffic signal. The northbound and southbound approaches each consist of a left-turn lane, a through lane and a right-turn lane. The eastbound and westbound approaches each consist of a left~turn lane, two through lanes and a right-turn lane. Figure 2 shows the existing intersection schematics. TRAFFIC DATA Peak hour manual turning movement traffic volume counts were made by A&F Engineering Co., LLC at the intersection of 1 461h Street and River Road. The count includes an hourly total of all "through" traffic and all "turning" traffic at the intersection. The count was made during the hours of 6:00 AM to 9:00 AM and 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM in April 2006. Computer printouts of the traffic volume counts are included in the Appendix. PEAK HOUR Based on the existing traffic volumes that were collected for this analysis, the adjacent street peak hours occur from 7: 15 AM to 8: 15 AM and 5: 15 PM to 6: 15 PM. Therefore, the volumes collected during these hours will be used for all analyses contained within this study. 4 146TH STREET ~ ~ l) Q ~ I~ '+ ~ ~ ~ 1467H STREET AND RNER ROAD ~ ~ ~ ~ ! fi o ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ U ? !

Trip Generation' rep0l1 was used to calculate the number of trips that will be generated by the proposed development. This report is a compilation of trip data for vmious land uses as collected by transportation professionals throughout the United States in order to establish the average number of nips generated by various land uses.

Internal trips will occur between the different land uses within the proposed development. Therefore, the internal trip reduction procedures published in the ITE Trip Generation HandbooK were applied to the generated trips ofthe proposed development. Table 2 is a summary of the internal trips associated with the proposed development. I Trip Generation, Institute of Transportation Engineers, Seventh Edition, 2003. 2 Trip Generation Handbook, Institute of Transportation Engineers, 2001. 6 u u u LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA TRAFFIC OPERATIONS ANALYSIS PAss-BY TRIPS Pass-by trips are trips already on the roadway system that are captured by a land use. Retail developments typically generate a significant amount of pass-by trips. Therefore, the pass-by trip equation in Trip Generation Handbook was used to estimate the pass-by trips for the retail portion of the proposed development. Table 2 summarizes the pass-by trips associated with the proposed development.

The volume of traffic that will enter and exit the proposed development must be assigned to the various access points and to the public street system. Using the traffic volume data collected for this analysis, traffic to and from the development has been assigned to the proposed driveways and to the public street system that will be serving the site. 2. To determine the volumes of traffic that will be added to the public roadway system, the generated traffic must be distributed by direction to the public roadways at their intersection with the driveway. For the proposed development, the distribution was based on the existing traffic patterns, the existing external roadway network, the proposed internal roadway network and the assignment of generated traffic. U The assignment and distribution for the separate land uses of the proposed development are shown on figures included in the Appendix. The assignment and distribution of the generated non pass-by and pass-by traffic volumes for the entire development are shown on Figure 3A and Figure 38, respectfully. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT GENERATED TRIPS ADDED TO THE STREET SYSTEM Generated traffic volumes that can be expected from the proposed development have been prepared at each of the study area intersections. The generated traffic volumes for the separate land uses are shown on figures included in the Appendix. The total peak hour generated traffic volumes for the entire development are shown on Figure 4. These data are based on the previously discussed trip generation data, assignment of generated traffic, and distribution of generated traffic.

It is defined by the Level-of-Service (LOS) of the intersection. The LOS is detelmined by a series of calculations commonly called a "capacity analysis", Input data into a capacity analysis include traffic volumes, intersection geometry, number and use of lanes and, in the case of signalized intersections, traffic signal timing. To detennine the level of service at each of the study intersections, a capacity analysis has been made using the recognized computer program based on the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM/. DESCRIPTION OF LEVELS OF SERVICE The following descliptions are for signalized intersections: Level of Service A.. describes operations with a very low delay, less than or equal to 10.0 seconds per vehicle. This occurs when progression is extremely favorable, U and most vehicles arrive during the green phase. Most vehicles do not stop at all. Level of Service B.. describes operations with delay in the range of lO.l to 20.0 seconds per vehicle. This generally occurs with good progression. More vehicles stop than LOS A, causing higher levels of average delay. Level of Service C - describes operation with delay in the range of 20.1 seconds to 35.0 seconds per vehicle. These higher delays may result from failed progression. The number of vehicles stopping is significant at this level, although many still pass through the intersection without stopping. U 3 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), Transportation Research Board, National Research Council, Washington, DC, 2000. 12 u ( . -u u LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA TRAFFIC OPERATIONS ANALYSIS Level of Service D - describes operations with delay in the range of 35.1 to 55.0 seconds per vehicle. At level of service D, the influence of congestion becomes more noticeable. Longer delays may result fi'OlTI some combinations of unfavorable progression. Many vehicles stop, and the propOltion of vehicles not stopping declines. Level of Service E. desclibes operations with delay in the range of 55.1 to 80.0 seconds per vehicle. This is considered to be the limit of acceptable delay. These high delay values'generally indicate poor progression and long cycle lengths. Level of Service F - describes operations with delay in excess of 80.0 seconds per vehicle. This is considered to be unacceptable to most drivers. This condition often occurs with oversaturation, i.e., when arrival flow rates exceed the capacity of the intersection. Poor progression and long cycle lengths may also be major contIibuting causes to such delay levels. The following list shows the delays related to the levels of service for stop sign controlled intersections. Level of Service Control Delay (seconds/vehicle) Less than or equal to 10 Between 10.1 and 15 Between 15.1 and 25 Between 25.1 and 35 Between 35.1 and 50 greater than 50 A B C D E F 13 u () u LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA TRAFFIC OPERA TIONS ANAL YSIS CAPACITY ANALYSES SCENARIOS To evaluate the proposed development's effect on the public street system, the traffic volumes from each of the various parts must be added together to form a series of scenarios that can be analyzed. The analysis of these scenarios determines the adequacy of the existing roadway system. From the analysis, recommendations can be made to improve the public street system so it will accommodate the increased traffic volumes. An analysis has been made for the AM peak hour and PM peak hour for each of the study intersections considering each of the following scenarios: SCENARIO I: Existing Traffic Volumes - Figure 5 is a summary of these traffic volumes at the study intersections for the peak hours. SCENARIO 2: Existing Traffic Volumes + Proposed Development Generated Traffic Volumes - Figure 6 is a summary of these traffic volumes at the study intersections for the peak hours. The requested analyses have been completed and the computer solutions showing the level of service results are included in the Appendix.

These conclusions apply only to the AM peak hour and PM peak hour that were addressed in this analysis. These peak hours are when the largest volumes of traffic will occur. Therefore, if the resulting levels of service are adequate during these time periods, it can generally be assumed that the remaining 22 hours will have levels of service that are better than the peak hours, since the existing street traffic volumes will be less during the other 22 hours. I 46TH STREET AND RIVER ROAD Existing Trajjic (Scenario 1) - A review of the level of service for each of the intersection approaches, with the existing traffic volumes and existing intersection geometries, has shown that this intersection operates at acceptable levels of service during the AM peak hour and PM peak hour. u Existing Traffic + Proposed Development (Scenario 2) - When the traffic volumes from the full development of the proposed site are added to the existing traffic volumes, this intersection will continue to operate at acceptable levels of service during the peak hours with the existing intersection geometries. 146nJ STREET AND PROPOSED ACCESS I Existing Traffic + Proposed Development (Scenario 2) - Based on a preliminary traffic signal warrant analysis, the traffic volumes exiting the access for any hour of the day will most likely be less than the volume requirements for either of the primary traffic signal warrants listed in the Indiana Manual on Uniform Trajfic Control Devices (Indiana MUTCDl. Therefore, a traffic signal will not be warranted at this access when the site is fully developed. When the traffic volumes from the full development of the proposed site are added to the existing traffic volumes, vehicles exiting the proposed access may experience delay during the PM peak hour with a stop sign control and the proposed access conditions. u 4 Indiana Manual on Uniform Tr(iffic Control Devices jar Street and Highways, Indiana Department of Transportation, 2000. 23 u u u. LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA TRAFFIC OPERATIONS ANALYSIS However, peak hour delay is to be expected for vehicles exiting any un-signalized access along 1461h Street due to the amount of existing through traffic along 1461h Street Also, gaps in the traffic stream along 146th Street should be provided by the existing traffic signals at the near-by intersections of 1461h Street and Cherry Tree Road and 1461h Street and River Road. These gaps can be used by vehicles exiting the proposed west access which will minimize the delay experienced. Additional gaps should be provided if a traffic signal is installed at the near-by intersection of 1 46th Street and the proposed access 3. The proposed access conditions include the following: . Stop sign control with the proposed access stopping for 146th Street . The proposed access constructed with two outbound lanes and at least one inbound lane. . . The construction of a 100 foot (minimum) eastbound right-turn lane with a 100 foot taper along 1 46th Street. A 100 foot recovery taper is also proposed at the access. . The construction of a westbound left-turn lane within the existing median along 146th Street. This turn lane should be a minimum of 100 feet for storage with a 100 foot taper which will accommodate the anticipated queue lengths. 146TH STREET AND PROPOSED ACCESS 2 (RIGHT -IN/RIGHT-OUT) Existing Traffic + Proposed Development (Scenario 2) - When the traffic volumes from the full development of the proposed site are added to the existing traffic volumes, all approaches to this intersection will operate at acceptable levels of service during the peak hours with the following proposed access conditions: . The proposed access constructed as a right-in/right-out access. . The construction of a continuous eastbound right-turn lane along 1461h Street that serves access 2, access 3 and access 4. This right-turn lane should start at least 100 feet west of access 2 and extend to access 4. A 100 foot recovery taper is also proposed at access 4. 24 u u u LEGACY CARMEL, INDIANA TRAFFIC OPERATIONS ANALYSIS 146H1 STREET AND PROPOSED ACCESS 3 Existing Traffic + Proposed Development (Scenario 2) - When the traffic volumes from the full development of the proposed site are added to the existing traffic volumes, vehicles exiting the proposed access as well as vehicles turning left into the access may experience delay during the PM peak hour with a stop sign control and the proposed access conditions. However, peak hour delay is to be expected for vehicles turning left into and exiting any un-signalized access along 146lh Street due to the amount of existing through traffic along 146th Street. Also, gaps in the traffic stream along 146lh Street should be provided by the existing traffic signals at the near-by intersections of 146th Street and River Road and I 46th Street and Cherry Tree Road. These gaps can be used by vehicles exiting the proposed access 3 which will minimize the delay experienced. A preliminary traffic signal warrant analysis was performed for this access considering the volume requirements of Criteria I B - Interruption of Continuous Traffic listed in the Indiana MUTeD. Based on the analysis it appears that a traffic signal will be warranted at this intersection when the site is fully developed. Depending on the phasing of development, a traffic signal would not be warranted until the site is fully constructed. If a traffic signal were installed, this intersection would operate at acceptable levels of service during the peak hours with the proposed access conditions: . The proposed access constructed with two outbound lanes and at least one inbound lane. . The construction of a continuous eastbound right-turn lane along 146th Street that serves access 2, access 3 and access 4.

However, a traffic signal will not be warranted until the site is fully constructed, depending on the phasing of development. It is therefore recommended that the traffic volumes at this intersection be continuously monitored as the site is developed over time. In order to ensure that vehicles entering and exiting the access operate safely and efficiently, consideration should be made to the installation of a traffic signal when the traffic volumes meet one of the primary signal warrants listed in the Indiana Manual on Untform Trqffic Control Devices.

Wetland A has a cumulative area of 3.7 acres and is classified as an emergent wetland system. . Wetland A appears to be within the 100 year floodplain and may be considered jurisdictional by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. . Wetland B has a cumulative area of 0.2 acres and is classified as a shrub/scrub wetland system. . Wetland B does not appear to have a hydrological connection to any "waters of the U.S." Pending verification, USACE will most likely consider it isolated, therefore IDEM would be the regulating agency. u Wetland Issues The cumulative wetland area is approximately 3.9 acres. If development activltieS are planned that would result in cumulative impacts greater than 0.100 acre, permitting will be required through the USACE and the IDEM. Nationwide permit applications for certain activities may take up to 2 to 3 months to process. Regional general permit applications for impacts greater than 0.1 acre and less than 1.0 acre typically require 3 to 6 months to process. Individual permit applications for impacts 1.0 acre and above typically require 6 to 12 months to process. IDEM has up to 120 days to review complete permit applications for isolated wetlands. If mitigation is necessary, the minimum mitigation ratio acreage for any isolated wetlands is 1:1, and a maximum ratio of 3:1. Ratios for USACE jurisdictional wetlands are 2:1 for emergent wetlands, 3: 1 for scrub-shrub wetlands, 4: 1 for forested wetlands, and 1: 1 for open water or drainage features. According to the FIRM map portions of the property are within the 100 year and 500 year floodplain respectively. Permitting may be required through the Hamilton County Drainage Board and/or the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. u Williams Creek Consulting, Inc. NAIO-25-001 Page 1 Wetland Delineation Earlham College Property Hamilton County, IN July 2005 u WETLAND DELINEATION 1.0 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this project was to assess the property located west of River Road and south of East 146'h Street, Hamilton County, Indiana, for evidence of wetlands and other jurisdictional waters. The site is more specifically located in the Fishers USGS 7.5 Minute Quadrangle Map in Sections 23 and a portion of the northeast 1/4 of Section 22, Township 18 North, and Range 4 East. The scope of work included delineation of wetland areas and identifying jurisdictional waters using U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) methodology described in the Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual 1987 (1987 Manual). This report is separated into four sections: . Section 1 - Introduction . Section 2 - Definitions . Section 3 - Investigation Results . Section 4 - Conclusions and Recommendations u u Williams Creek Consulting, Inc. NAIO-25-00t Page 2 Wetland Delineation Earlham College Property Hamilton County, IN July 2005 u 2.0 DEFINITIONS 2.1 Jurisdictional Waters U.S. Army Cops qfEngineers Through the Clean Water Act, 1972, Section 404, the USACE maintains authority over "waters of the U.S." as defined in the code of federal regulations (33 CFR 328.3). The limit of jurisdiction described in 33 CFR 328.4 for non-tidal waters is the "ordinary high water mark" if no adjacent wetlands are present. If wetlands are present, the limit of jurisdiction applies to the boundary of the adjacent wetland. Any wetland that has a hydrological connection to a "waters of the U.S." is also included. Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 (33 U .S.c. 403) also serves as a base of federal authority over certain waters. Definitions and permitting requirements for jurisdictional waters under Section 10 can be found in 33 CFR Parts 322 and 329. A permit must be obtained from the Corps before any fill or dredging actIv1tIes are conducted within the boundary of a "waters of the U.S." including federal jurisdictional wetlands. The USACE has three types of permits: nationwide permits, regional general permits for Indiana, and individual permits. Nationwide Permits have been developed for projects that meet a specific criterion that are deemed to have minimal impacts to the aquatic environment. u Regional General Permit for Indiana authorizes activities associated with any construction activities including agriculture and mining activities. Wetland impacts must be less than 1 acre and stream impacts must be less than 300 linear feet to qualify for this type of permit. Section 401 water quality certification must be obtained through the Indiana Department of Environmental Management concurrently. Individual Permits are required for proposed wetland impacts of 1 acre or greater and stream impacts of 300 linear feet or greater. The review process for this type of permit may take up to 1 year due to the higher level of scrutiny by the regulatory agencies. The Louisville District of the USACE recently developed new mitigation guidelines for the federal jurisdictional wetlands and "waters of the U.S." The guidelines require stream and wetland characterizations for all drainage features and wetlands proposed to be impacted. The document required for permitting must contain extensive detail of the proposed impact sites, the proposed mitigation sites, and information regarding the construction and monitoring of the mitigation sites. Impacts to USACE jurisdictional wetlands or other "waters of the U.S." will require in kind mitigation. The Corps and the IDEM prefer the mitigation to be on-site, but may allow off- site mitigation in some cases due to certain constraints of a property. The mitigation ratios for impacts to federal jurisdictional wetlands and other "waters of the U.S." are as follows: u Impact Type Emergent Wedand Scrub-Shrub Wedand Forested Wetland Stream/Drainage Ways Replacement 2:1 3:1 4:1 1:1 Linear feet or restoration activities Williams Creek Consulting, Inc. NAIO-2S-00t Page 3 Wetland Delineation Earlham College Property Hamilton County, IN July 2005 u Indiana Department of Environmental Management IDEM is the state agency that reviews and issues permits regarding isolated wetlands according to IC 13-18. House Enrolled Act No. 1798 (with amendment 1277) was enacted to take the place of the NPDES permitting through the IDEM. The law recognizes three types of wetlands: Class I, Class II, and Class III. Class I isolated wetlands are in areas that have been disturbed by human activity/development, have low species diversity or greater than 50% nonnative species, do not provide critical habitat for the support of significant wildlife or aquatic vegetation, and do not possess significant hydrologic function. Class III isolated wetlands are located in areas that are undisturbed or minimally disturbed by human activity / development, are composed of rare or important ecological types, and support more than minimal wildlife or aquatic habitat and hydrologic function. Class II isolated wetlands are those that do not fit the criteria set for either Class I or Class III isolated wetlands. Exemptions are in place to allow impacts to Class I and Class II wetlands without requiring permitting and mitigation. Exemptions to Class I wetlands may be taken for up to 0.5 acres, exemptions to Class II wetlands may be taken for up to 0.25 acres, and any impacts to a Class III wetland will require an individual permit and mitigation. Only wetlands with the maximum allowable acreage may be used towards to the exemption. Section 401 permit applications will be submitted with any USACE jurisdictional wetlands or "waters of the U.S.". u According to House Enrolled Act No. 1798, impacts to isolated wetlands will require some form of compensatory mitigation. The law specifically states the amount of mitigation that must be created to offset impacts to isolated wetlands. These mitigation ratios do not apply to USACE jurisdictional areas. The mitigation ratios for impacts to state jurisdictional wetlands (isolated) are as follows: Impact Type Class I Class I Class II Replacement Class I Class II or III Class II or III On-Site Ratio 1.5:1 Acres 1:1 Acres Non-forested 1.5:1 Acres Forested 2:1 Acres Non-forested 2:1 Acres Forested 2.5:1 Acres Off-Site Ratio 1.5:1 Acres 1:1 Acres Non-forested 2: 1 Acres Forested 2.5: 1 Acres N on- forested 2.5: 1 Acres Forested 3:1 Acres Class III Class III Indiana Department rfNatural Resources Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) has authority over the floodways of waterways that have a watershed greater than one (1) square mile. If construction activities are proposed in a regulated floodway, then a Construction in a floodway permit would be required. A watershed analysis would be required to determine the actual drainage for any waterways. u Williams Creek Consulting, Inc. NAIO-25-001 Page 4 Wetland Delineation Earlham College Property Hamilton County, IN July 2005 u Hamilton County Drainage Board The Hamilton County Surveyor regulates all subdivision drains, field tiles, or open ditches & creeks Hamilton County. Regulated drains have easements associated with the proximity of structures. The Hamilton County Surveyor's office requires a permit for crossing, outletting or working within the easement of a regulated drain. Coordination with the County Surveyor is critical to maintain deadlines and avoid scheduling conflicts. 2.2 Wetlands Wetlands offer a variety of functions and values that may include, but may not be limited to, groundwater recharge/discharge, flood flow alteration, sediment/toxicant retention, and fish and wildlife habitat. Because of the perceived functions and values of wetlands, the USACE developed the 1987 Manual to identify wetlands. Wetlands are defined in the 1987 Manual as, "Those areas that are inundated or saturated by surface or ground water at a frequency and duration sufficient to support, and that under normal circumstances do support, a prevalence of vegetation typically adapted for life in saturated soil conditions. Wetlands generally include swamps, marshes, bogs, and similar areas.,,1 This document outlines the protocol for identifying wetland areas distinguishable from "upland" areas. Wetland areas are delineated according to three primary criteria: vegetation, soil, and hydrology. An area is determined to qualify as a wetland if it meets the following "general diagnostic environmental characteristics." u 2.2.1 Hydrophytic Vegetation The 1987 Manual defines hydrophytic vegetation as, "... the sum total of macrophytic plant life that occurs in areas where the frequency and duration of inundation or soil saturation produce permanently or periodically saturated soils of sufficient duration to exert a controlling influence on the plant species present..." The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the National Plant List Panel developed the following categories to establish the relative probability of species occurring within the range between upland and wetland: Obligate Wedand Plants (OBL) - Probability of >99% occurrence in wetlands with a 1 % probability of occurrence in upland areas. Facultative Wedand Plants (F ACW) - Probability of 67% - 99% occurrence in wetlands with a 1 % - 33% probability of occurrence in upland areas. Facultative Plants (FAC) - Probability of 34% - 66% occurrence in either wetlands or upland areas. Facultative Upland Plants (F ACU) - Probability of 67% - 99% occurrence in upland areas with a 1 % - 33% probability of occurrence in wetland areas. u I U.S. A17JIY Corps rifEngineers Wetlands Delineation Manual, (1987 Manual). Williams Creek Consulting, Inc. NAIO-25-00t Page 5 Wetland Delineation Earlham College Property Hamilton County, IN July 2005 u Obligate Uplands (UPL) - Probability of >99% occurrence in upland areas with a 1 % probability of occurrence in wetland areas. The hydrophytic vegetation criterion is met if greater than 50% of dominant species are FAC, FACW, or OBL. 2.2.2 Hydrology Areas which are inundated or saturated to the surface for a significant time during the growing season will typically exhibit characteristics of wetland hydrology. This is not always the case, however; careful examination of the site conditions is needed to adequately identify wetland areas. The anaerobic and reducing conditions in inundated or saturated soils influence the plant community and may favor a dominance of hydrophytic species. It should be noted that the 1987 Manual further defines the growing season and methodology for determining evidence of hydrology. There are two types of hydrology indicators: primary and secondary. Primary indicators of hydrology discussed in the 1987 Manual include, but are not limited to, inundation, saturation within the upper 12 inches of soil, water marks, drift lines, sediment deposits, and drainage patterns. Secondary indicators may include, but are not limited to, oxidized root channels, water stained leaves, local soil survey data, F AC- Neutral test, etc. One primary or two secondary indicators are required to meet this criterion. u 2.2.3 Soil "A hydric soil is formed under conditions of saturation, flooding, or ponding long enough during the growing season to develop anaerobic conditions in the upper part. ,,2 All organic soils (except Folists) are considered hydric while mineral soils must be carefully examined to qualify as hydric. There are several indicators, which suggest a soil is hydric. An inspection of the soil profile to a minimum depth of 16 inches below ground surface is required in order to make this determination. The soil data used is the horizon of soil immediately below the A-horizon or at 10 inches below the soil surface. A minimum of two test pits are manually excavated at each data station. One of the pits is excavated in the wetland area and the other in the upland. Hydric soils may be present in the upland position; however, there may be insufficient evidence of hydrology or vegetation for the area to qualify as wetland. u 2 USDA-NRCS, HYDRIC SOIL TECH. NOTE I: Proper use of Hydric Soil Terminology, Williams Creek Consulting, Inc. NAIO-2S-001 Page 6 Wetland Delineation Earlham College Property Hamilton County, IN July 2005 u 3.0 SITE CHARACTERIZATION WCC reviewed readily available historical information and conducted a field reconnaissance to characterize ecological conditions onsite. 3.1 Historical Records Review WCC reviewed available public and supplied information regarding this site to enhance the field investigation. Resources available include USGS Quadrangle maps, National Wetland Inventory (NWI) maps, NRCS soil surveys, and aerial photography. 3.1.1 USGS Topographic Map This resource is generally used to spatially locate the site and provide a graphic display of the site location and general topography of the area. These maps provide insufficient detail for accurate site measurements or for planning purposes; however, general drainage trends can be established. The topography represented on this map shows a moderately sloping terrain towards the 100 years floodplain. A site location map has been included as Figure 1. u 3.1.2 NWI Maps The NWI maps were developed to meet a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) mandate to map the wetland and deepwater habitats of the United States. These maps were developed using high altitude aerial photographs. Indicators noted in the photographs, which exhibited pre-determined wetland characteristics, were identified according to a detailed classification system. In some cases, the NWI information is erroneous and areas are misidentified which emphasizes the need to perform field verification. The NWI maps use the USGS Quadrangle maps as a topographic base. The NWI map retains some of the detail of the Quadrangle map; however, it is used primarily for demonstration of wetland areas identified by the agency. This is not used to positively identify wetlands on a site. The Fishers NWI map is included as Figure 2. This NWI map identifies four (4) wetlands that may be within the area of investigation; three (3) PEMA- palustrine, emergent, temporarily flooded; and two (2) PEMC - palustrine, emergent, seasonally flooded. The maps are only deemed accurate to a scale of 1:24,000 inches. A key to the NWI Map designations is included as Figure 3 for reference purposes. u Williams Creek Consulting, Inc. NAIO-25-001 Page 7 Wetland Delineation Earlham College Property Hamilton County, IN July 2005 u 3.1.3 County Soil Surveys WCC reviewed the information provided in the NRCS Soil Survry 0/ Hamilton County, Indiana that is relevant to the study site. The soil surveys provide a 1 :1320 0n:ft) scale aerial photograph on which distinct soil unit boundaries are identified. The eleven soil units classified on site are Fox clay loam, 8 to 18 percent slopes, severely eroded (FxC3); Fox loam,2 to 6 percent slopes, eroded (FnB2); Hennepin loam, 25 to 50 percent slopes (HeF); Houghton muck (Ho); Miami silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes (NImA); Miami silt loam, 2 to 6 percent slopes, eroded (MmB2); Ockley silt loam 0 to 2 percent slopes (OcA); Ockley silt loam 2 to 6 percent slopes, eroded (OcB2); Palms muck (pa); Sleeth loam (St); and \Vestland silty clay loam (We). Other information contained within the soil survey may be used to further characterize the site. Figure 4 presents a copy of the soil survey sheets for the site. 3.1.4 Aerial Photography Aerial photographs provide a visual overview of the site and can provide information to assist in identifying land use practices, terrain, drainage, vegetated areas, wetlands, habitats, etc. Certain features such as variegated soil patterns for instance, may suggest the presence of wetlands. Figure 5 provides a copy of a spring 2004 photograph. 3.2 Site Investigation A Williams Creek staff scientist conducted a site investigation on April 27, 2005. The study site is approximately 476 acres. The majority of the study site consists of agricultural fields, pasturelands, a farmstead and small woodlots. u Photographs of the site were collected to document current site conditions, and to provide a visual record of wetlands and "waters of the U.S.", if any, present at the time of inspection (Appendix B). Routine Wetland Determination Data Forms (Data Forms) are completed in the field to document representative site conditions. A paired Data Form is prepared for each data station that represents any wetland or upland areas identified while onsite. Copies of the Data Forms are included in Appendix A. Two wetlands were identified during the site investigation for this property. A detailed description of the wetlands is as follows. Additional data points were recorded in other areas within the project boundary. 3.2.1 Wetland A - (3.7 Acres) This wetland community is located in the northeastern portion of the study area and is classified as an emergent wetland. u Wetland Data Points A-1 This sample station was located in the eastern portion of the wetland, and the dominant vegetation present at this station is reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea, FACW+). The dominant plant species present in this community are hydrophytic, which meets the vegetation criterion. Williams Creek Consulting, Inc. NAIO-2S-001 Page 8 Wetland Delineation Earlham College Property Hamilton County, IN July 2005 u The soil profile was inspected by manual excavation of a test pit within the wetland boundary.

The site was inspected on April 27, 2005. u Based on the criteria established by the USACE 1987 manual, one emergent and one shrub/scrub wetlands were located within the study site boundary. The cumulative wetland area is approximately 3.9 acres. Wetland A appears to be within the 100 year floodplain and may be considered jurisdictional by the USACE. Wetland B does not appear to be hydrologically connected to a "waters of the U.S." and may only be jurisdictional by the IDEM. If proposed development will impact any of the aforementioned wetlands, then WCC recommends that this report be sent to the Corps of Engineers and the IDEM for a jurisdictional determination. Any proposed activities for USACE jurisdictional wetlands or "waters of the U.S." over 0.1 of an acre will require a Section 404 and Section 401 Water Quality Certification Permit through the USACE and IDEM. If 0.1 or less impacts are proposed then a notification to the IDEM will be required. Any proposed activities for isolated wetlands or "waters of the state" will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine the Class of the wetland. Permitting and mitigation ratios are dependant on the class of the wetland. According to the FEMA/FIRM map portions of the property are within the 100 year and 500 year floodplain respectively. Permitting may be required through the Hamilton County Drainage Board and/or the Indiana Department of Natural Resources. u Williams Creek Consulting, Inc.
