Permit No, 39) and for the Neuse, Tar-Pamlico and Randleman Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B
.0233 and .0259 and .0250). This Certification replaces Water Quality Certification Number
3108 issued on February 11, 1997. This WQC is rescinded when the Corps of Engineers
re-authorizes Nationwide Permits 39, 41, 42, 43 or 44 or when deemed appropriate by the
Director of DWQ.
The State of North Carolina certifies that the specified category of activity will not violate
applicable portions of Sections 301, 302, 303, 306 and 307 of the Public Laws 92-500 and
95-217 if conducted in accordance with the conditions hereinafter set forth.
Conditions of Certification,
1, Proposed fill or substantial modification of greater than one-third acre (0.33 acre, 0.135
hectare) of wetlands or waters for a project requires written concurrence from the bivisi'
of Water Quality. If impacts fall below this threshold and the stream impact threshold
described in Condition 4, written concurrence is not required unless the applicant believes
a; co
77
,?q .) Ni?'u?'ua r
that any condition of this certification cannot be met. In such cases, an application and
written concurrence from DWQ is required;
2. Proposed fill or substantial modification of equal to or less than one-third acre (0.33 acrk
0.135 hectare) of wetlands for a project does not require written concurrence from the
Division of Water quality as long as the project is in compliance with all conditions of thi.,
General Certification except Condition No. 16;
3. Proposed fill or substantial modification of any amount of wetlands classified in accordanu
with 15A NCAC 26 .0101(e)(7) as Unique Wetlands (UWL) shall require written concurrent
from the Division of Water Quality;
4. Proposed fill, flooding or substantial modification of greater than or equal to 150 linear
feet (457 meters) cumulative impact on all streams for a project requires written
concurrence from the DWQ. Stabilization practices (i.e. rip-rep), excavation, removal of
bank-to-bank vegetation, and any other work that alters the natural dimension, pattern,
or profile shall be included in the reported impacts along with the placement of culverts
and other structures in wetlands or streams;
5 Proposed fill or substantial modification of less than 150 linear feet (45.7 m) cumulative
impact on all streams on a project does not require written concurrence from the Division
of Woter Quality as long as the project is in compliance with all conditions of this Genera
Certification except Condition No. 16. However, Condition No. 6 is applicable to all strear
in basins with riparian area protection rules;
b. Impacts to any stream length in the Neuse, Tar-Pamlico and Randleman River Basins
requires written concurrence from DWQ in accordance with 15A NCAC 2$.0233, NCAC 21
.0259 and .0250 and 15A NCAC 2H .0500. New development activities located in the
protected 50-foot wide riparian areas (whether jurisdictional wetlands or not) within the
Neuse and Tar-Pamlico River Basins shall be limited to "uses" identified within and
constructed in accordance with 15A NCAC 2B .0233, 15A NCAC 28 .0259 and .0250. All
new development shall be located, designed, constructed, and maintained to have minimal
disturbance to protect water quality to the maximum extent practicable through the use c
best management practices. Activities listed as "exempt" from these rules do not need to
apply for written concurrence under this Certification;
7. In order to protect and preserve water quality in the immediate watersheds which drain
directly to 303(d) listed waters, as well as watersheds that are classified as nutrient
sensitive waters (NSW), water supply waters (WS), trout waters (Tr), high quality waters
(HQW). and outstanding resource waters (011W), the Division shall require that extended
detention wetlands (designed according to latest version of the NC DENR Stormwater Bes-
Management Practices Manual) be constructed as part of the stormwater management piar
when a site-specific stormwater management plan is required. Methods such as dry
detention basins followed by level spreaders that sheet flow through forested filter strips
and that meet the design standards specified in the latest version of the NC DENR
Stormwater Best Management Practices Manual may also be used, if appropriate. Approva
of stormwater management plans by the Division of Water Quality's other existing state
stormwater programs including appropriate local programs are sufficient to satisfy this
condition. This condition applies unless more stringent requirements are in effect from
other state water quality programs;

wetland and stream mitigation requirements shall be made by DWQ for any Certification
involving written concurrence. The most current design and monitoring protocols from DWC
shall be followed and written plans submitted for DWQ's approval as required in those
protocols;
11. For any project involving a stream re-alignment, a stream relocation plan must be includec
with the 401 application. This plan must be approved by DWQ prior to issuance of the 40
Certification, Relocated stream designs should include similar dimensions, patterns and
profiles as the existing channel. The new channel shall be constructed in the dry and ware
shall not be turned into the new channel until the banks are stabilized, Vegetation used fc
bank stabilization shall be limited to native species, and should include establishment of a
50 foot wide wooded buffer on both sides of the relocated channel to the extent practicc
12. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands must be
placed below the elevation of the streambed to allow low flow passage of water and aquas
life unless it can be shown to DWQ that providing passage would be impractical, Design ar
placement of culverts and other structures including temporary erosion control measures
shall not be conducted in a manner that may result in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or strea
beds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream of the above structures. The
applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium shall be maintained if
requested in writing by DWQ. Additionally, when roadways, causeways or other fill
projects are constructed across FEMA•designated floodways or wetlands, openings such a!
culverts or bridges must be provided to maintain the natural hydrology of the system as
well as prevent constriction of the floodway that may result in destabilization of streams
or wetlands:
13. Stormwater management measures and structures shall be implemented for ail project site
in order to prevent degradation of downstream water quality or uses, including protection
of downstream stream bed and bank stability. Additional site- specific Stormwater
management requirements may be added to this Certification at DWQ's discretion on a
case by case basis for projects that have impervious cover of greater than 30 percent.
Site-specific stormwater management shall be designed to remove 85% TSS according to
the latest version of OWQ's Stormwater Best Management Practices manual. Alternative
designs may be requested by the applicant and will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis b
the Division of Water Quality. Approval of stormwater management plans by the Division .
Water Quality's other existing state stormwater programs including appropriate local
programs are sufficient to satisfy this Condition. This condition applies unless more
stringent requirements are in effect from other state water quality programs;

design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best Management Practices in
order to assure compliance with the appropriate turbidity water quality standard;
15, All sediment and erosion control measures placed in wetlands and waters shall be removed
and the natural grade restored within two months after the Division of Land Resources ha
released the project;
16. Additional site-specific conditions may be added to projects with greater than one- third
acre (0.33 ac, 0.135 hectare) impact to wetlands or waters or 150 linear feet (45.7
meters) of streams which are proposed under this Certification;
17. Measures shall be taken to prevent live or fresh concrete from coming into contact with
waters of the state until the concrete has hardened;
18. If an environmental document is required, this Certification is not valid until a Finding of

Dear Mr. St. John:

:=P.a'
Enclosed for your final approval are drawings SW-1, SW-2 and SW-3 for this project. We have
added a forebay near the southeast end of the building to serve as a stilling basin for the runoff
from the roof and routed the roof drainage system to it as you requested. Dr. J. Carter has
prepared an "Operations and Maintenance Agreement for the Storm Management Pond" for the
Owner as you requested. It is my understanding that with these changes we have met all your
requirements.
Please let me know if there are questions.

Re: Proposed Classroom Building

Dear Mr. St. John:
This is to confirm the meeting that Herman Kight, Dr. Jay Carter and 1 had with you on January 19th
regarding this project. According to my notes we discussed the following items:
The surface drainage northeast of the building may continue to drain into catch basins. The grass area
between the building and the wetlands may drain into the wetlands. You are not concerned about the
walks. We will not be allowed to drain the roof into the existing storm sewer. You recommend that a
forebay be provided to distribute the water from the roof drains into the wetlands. This will require
adding a 1:40 scale drawing of the forebay to our drawings. The area of the forebay will probably be less
than 1200 sq. ft. We agreed to meet next week to discuss the forebay in more detail. You will let me
know when you are available.
Thank you for your assistance.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Tugwell:
Enclosed is a Pre-Construction Notification for Johnston Community College (JCC) in
Smithfield, Johnston County, North Carolina. The college proposes to construct a new
classroom on approximately 1.04 acres, which will require filling 0.47"bf a 3.46 acre isolated
wetland onsite. C_') -A?
rn ?
The wetland to be impacted is a Pine Flatwoods vegetative community. It has an m z
overstory primarily of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) with some sweetgum (Liquidambar
styraciflua) and a midstory of water oak (Quercus nigra) and red maple (Ater rubrum). The
understory is comprised of titi (Cyrilla racemiflora), sweetbay (Magnolia virginiana), black gum
(Nyssa biflora), sweet pepperbush (Clethra alnifolia), cane (Arundinaria tecta) and highbush
blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum).
We propose to mitigate for wetland impacts associated with the project by restoring
approximately 1.0 acre of wetlands on Howell Woods, a tract owned by JCC in Johnston County
that is under conservation easement. These wetlands will be restored in accordance to the
NCWRP management plan already in effect for the property.

RE: Johnston Community College
Dear Dr. Carter:
Thank you for your November 30, 1999, faxed letter to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
(Service) regarding the scheduling of a meeting to discuss closure of the law enforcement case,
and to evaluate a proposal to construct a new building in red-cockaded woodpecker (RCW)
habitat at Johnston Community College (JCC) in Smithfield, North Carolina.
As Candace Martino, Service biologist, discussed with you on November 29, 1999, the Service
has concerns regarding the proposed building in RCW habitat, and requests that a biological
assessment which includes a new RCW forage habitat analysis be submitted. Although we can
meet prior to this work, it would be more productive for the Service to make recommendations
regarding this proposed building, and any other future construction plans proposed for the
campus, after the forage habitat analysis is conducted, the project impacts evaluated for RCW
foraging habitat loss, and a determination made relative to meeting the RCW Private Lands
Guidelines. Furthermore, it appears that this new proposal may also have some bearing on the
closure of the law enforcement case; therefore, we request that this information be taken into
account before setting a final meeting date. We look forward to your response and cooperation
in this matter.
Sincerel ,

Size and Location of Property (waterbody, Highway name/number, town, etc.): The property is
located southwest of Highway 70 Business and northwest of US I-95, in Smithfield, Johnston County,
North Carolina. The site is a jurisdictional isolated wetland in the Neuse River Basin; connection to
interstate commerce established through the use of the site by Red Cockaded Woodpecker (federally
protected species).
Indicate Which of the Following Apply:
There are waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, on the above described property which we strongly suggest
should be delineated and surveyed. The surveyed wetland lines must be verified by our staff before the Corps will
make a final jurisdictional determination on your property.
Because of the size of your property and our present workload, our identification and delineation of your wetlands
cannot be accomplished in a timely manner. You may wish to obtain a consultant to obtain a more timely
delineation of the wetlands. Once the consultant has flagged a wetland line on the property, Corps staff will
review it, and, if it is accurate, we strongly recommend that you have the line surveyed for final approval by the
Corps. The Corps will not make a final jurisdictional determination on your property without an approved survey.
X The waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, on your lot have been delineated, and the limits of the Corps
jurisdiction have been explained to you. Unless there is a change in the law or our published regulations, this
determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described property which are subject to
the.permit requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law
or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the
date of this notification.
X This project is located in the Neuse River or Tar-Pamlico River basin. You should contact the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality at [phone] to determine additional requirements specific to this river basin.
Placement of dredged or fill material in wetlands on this property without a Department of the
Army Permit is in most cases a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1311). A
permit is not required for work on the property restricted entirely to existing high ground. If you
have any questions regarding the Corps of Engineers regulatory program, please contact
Todd Tugwell at telephone number. (919) 876 - 8441 extension 26

Dear Mr. Kight:
Subject:
NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF
ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
Project Name: JCC West Campus
COE #: 200020908
County: Johnston
The purpose of this letter is to notify you that the North Carolina Wetlands
Restoration Program (NCWRP) will accept payment for non-riparian wetland
impacts associated with the subject project in accordance with the Memorandum of
Understanding between the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural
Resources and the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dated November 4, 1998. Based
on information supplied by Dr. J. H. Carter, III in a letter dated September 27, 2000,
an application requesting authorization to impact 0.47 acres of non-riparian wetlands
has been submitted for the subject project. The NCWRP will provide mitigation as
specified in the 401 Water Quality Certification and/or Section 404 permit (up to one
acre of non-riparian wetlands restoration) for impacts associated with the subject
project in Cataloging Unit 03020201 of the Neuse River basin.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact
Crystal Braswell at [phone].

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Dorney
Division of Water Quality
FROM Bennett Wynne //~
Habitat Conservation Program
DATE: November 9, 2000
SUBJECT: 401 Water Quality Certification for Johnston Community College building
construction, Smithfield, Johnston County, North Carolina. DWQ No.
unknown.
The Wildlife Resources Commission has reviewed the project for impacts to
wildlife and fishery resources. We regret that time constraints did not allow a site visit.
Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.), Section 401 of the
Clean Water Act (as amended), and North Carolina General Statutes (G. S. 113 -13 1 et
seq.).
The applicant is seeking authorization to fill 0.47 acre of pine flat` wetlands for
construction of a classroom. Vegetation includes loblolly pine.. sweet gum, water oak, red
maple, titi, sweet bay, cane, and blueberry. Such wetlands typically provide good habitat
for raccoon, opossum, gray fox, and various songbirds and amphibians In addition to
having wildlife habim value, such wetlands store and ireat stwinwatei runoff firom
adjacent uplands and developed areas, thus protecting downstream surface water quality.
It is our understanding the proposed wetland impacts would be mitigated by
restoring approximately 1.0 acre of wetlands at Howell Woods, a tract along the Neuse
River in Johnston County owned by the college. Our primary concern is a question raised
by the US Fish & Wildlife Service in their 12-7-99 letter regarding the possible occurrence
of listed red cockaded woodpecker (RCW) habitat at the impact site. We support the
Service's request that a biological assessment, including RCW forage habitat analysis, be
submitted. If RCW habitat is found to occur at the site, it should be reflected in avoidance
and mitigation measures taken by the applicant.
'T'hank you for the opportunity to comment. If you need to discuss these
comments or need additional assistance, please call me at [phone].
