  • Environmental Consequences
    General Planning Consultant Services Environmental Effects Report – BeltLine Corridor Northeast Zone 4.0 ENVIRONMENTAL CONSEQUENCES 4.1 Wetlands/Waters of the U.S. and State Jurisdictional waters of the U.S. are defined by 33 CFR Part 328.3 (b) and are protected by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344), which is administered and enforced by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). This EER assessment used USGS topography maps, NWI maps, and county soil survey maps to identify jurisdictional waters of the U.S. that the proposed action would affect. Subsequent field investigations allowed for refinements to the assessments of jurisdictional waters. Wetland locations were determined using the 1987 USACE Wetlands Delineation Manual. The USACE manual’s multi-parameter approach requires positive evidence of three criteria: hydrophytic vegetation; hydric soils; and wetland hydrology. Jurisdictional wetlands exhibit evidence of all three of the above wetland parameters. Jurisdictional intermittent or perennial streams exhibit a definite channel and wrested vegetation, and show evidence of water flow at times other than major storm events. Ephemeral streams exhibit wrested vegetation and evidence of flow only during and immediately after storm events. In addition, ephemeral streams do not have hydric soils or base flow as in intermittent and perennial streams. Ephemeral streams are non- jurisdictional if they do not provide a significant nexus between two separate Waters of the U.S. Within the study area are eight perennial streams, three intermittent streams, two wetlands and one ephemeral stream. Figure 4-1, Figure 4-2, and Figure 4-3 identify the locations of wetlands, Waters of the U.S.

    Case Study Models for a Regenerative Economy: Built Environment Impacts in the Southeast Historic Fourth Ward Park, Atlanta, Georgia (2012-Present) Prepared by Bailey Shea, Program Coordinator for Policy Overview1,2 Funding Sources: Atlanta Beltline, Inc.; City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management; Historic Fourth Ward Park Conservancy; Trust for Public Land; Woodruff Foundation Project cost: $18 million (Budgeted at $23 million) Building size: 17.5 acres, including 2-acre reservoir Features: Clear Creek Basin (100-year flood capacity reservoir); Historic Fourth Ward Skatepark; playground and splash pad; Atlanta Beltline connectivity; Fully ADA compliant Historic Fourth Ward Park, specifically its crowning jewel, Clear Creek Basin, has dramatically reduced flooding in the area, which was once a brownfield filled with abandoned warehouses and Clear Creek Basin at the Historic Fourth Ward Park in Atlanta parking lots. Built Environment Impact The City of Atlanta Department of Watershed Management initially proposed a grey infrastructure solution to the runoff and flooding problems that would cost $40 million, but this park—as recommended by a coalition of community members—was budgeted at $23 million and came in under budget at approximately $18 million. The community-envisioned park, with its innovative green infrastructure centered design, saved the City over $20 million and added nature and a neighborhood amenity to the community by forgoing a traditional “hardscaping” or “grey infrastructure” solution of a new pipe system. Green infrastructure uses natural landscaping elements to allow nature to do much of the work to reduce flooding, filter out pollutants and reduce capacity needs of municipal stormwater infrastructure. When stormwater flows are treated, absorbed and/or completely managed by green infrastructure, this may be referred to as a form of passive stormwater management, and the safe, low-impact return of water to urban ecosystems is an example of regenerative design in action.
