You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in 1.33 acres of
wetlands or waters for the purpose of constructing a 16-inch natural gas pipeline near Maiden, as you described
in your application dated 27 May 1997. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is
covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3101. This Certification allows you to use General
Permit Number 049 when it is issued by the Corps of Engineers. In addition, you should get any other
federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment
and Erosion Control, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this
approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the
General Certification. Applicant should be aware that the 0.5 acres of additional impact for the 65 foot wide
corridor could require mitigation if total permanent fill exceeds one acre in the future.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you
change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If total
wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required
as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions
listed in the attached certification.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing.

Line Corporation
Docket No. CP97-193-000
TO THE PARTY ADDRESSED:
The staff of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC
or Commission) has prepared an environmental assessment (EA) on
the natural gas pipeline facilities proposed by Transcontinental
Gas Pipe Line Corporation (Transco) in the above-referenced
docket.
The EA was prepared to satisfy the requirements of the
National Environmental Policy Act. The staff concludes that
approval of the proposed project, with appropriate mitigating
measures, would not constitute a major Federal action
significantly affecting the quality of the human environment.
The EA assesses the potential environmental effects of the
construction and operation of the natural gas expansion
facilities including:
• about 17.77 miles of 16-inch-diameter pipeline loop on
Transco's existing 10-inch-diameter Maiden Delivery Lateral
in Lincoln and Catawba Counties, North Carolina; and
• the expansion of Transco's existing Lowesville Meter
Station, which is located at the interconnection of
Transco's mainline and the Maiden Delivery Lateral.
Transco would transport an additional 38,000 dekatherms of
natural gas per day to Piedmont Natural Gas Company.
The EA has been placed in the public files of the FERC.. A
limited number of copies of the EA are available for distribution
and public inspection at:

A. PROPOSED ACTION
1. Purpose and Need
On January 10, 1997, Transcontinental Gas Transmission
Company (Transco) proposed to construct and operate about
17.77 miles of 16-inch-diameter pipeline loop on its existing
10-inch-diameter Maiden Delivery Lateral in Lincoln and
Catawba Counties, North Carolina. In addition, Transco
proposes to expand its existing Lowesville Meter Station,
located at the interconnection of Transco's mainline and the
Maiden Delivery Lateral in Lincoln County, North Carolina.
Transco currently delivers up to 31,000 dekatherms of
gas per day (dt/d) to Piedmont Natural Gas Company (Piedmont)
through the Maiden Delivery Lateral. As a result of the
proposed facilities, Transco would be able to deliver up to
69,000 dt/d to Piedmont.
Transco states that it is not proposing to alter the
total volumes-authorized for delivery to Piedmont on a firm
basis or to otherwise change in any way, Piedmont's firm
capacity entitlements on Transco's system. Transco indicates
that this expansion would enable a larger portion of
Piedmont's existing authorized transportation quantities to be
delivered to Piedmont through the Maiden Delivery Lateral.
Transco further indicates that this proposal would have no
impact on Transco's peak day deliveries and little or no
impact on Transco's annual deliveries.
On May 28, 1997, the Commission granted a Preliminary
Determination on Nonenvironmental Issues (PD) in this docket.
The PD indicated that authoriz ' n of the proposed facilities
would be in the public convenience and necessity under Section
7(c) of the Natural Gas Act. However, final action on the
certificate would not occur until after the environmental
review is completed and a final order is issued by the
Commission.
2. Proposed Facilities
The Maiden Lateral Looping Project would include:
• about 17.77 miles of 16-inch-diameter pipeline loop
on Transco's existing 10-inch-diameter Maiden
Delivery Lateral in Lincoln and Catawba Counties,
North Carolina; and
• the expansion of Transco's existing Lowesville
Meter Station, which is located at the

The proposed facilities would cost about $13,236,00-Q.-
Figure 1 shows the general location of the Maiden
Lateral Looping Project. See appendix A for detailed maps of
the proposed project.
3. Public Involvement
On February 14, 1997 the Federal Energy Regulatory -
Commission (FERC) issued a Notice of Intent to Prepare an.
Environmental Assessment for the Proposed Maiden Lateral
Looping Project and Request for Comments on Environmental
Issues (NOI). Written comments were requested from the public
on specific concerns about the project or issues.that should
be considered during preparation-of the Environmental
Assessment (EA).
Comments were received from the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency (EPA), U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS),
the Town of Maiden, North Carolina, and two landowners
affected by the proposed project. Both the EPA and the FWS
expressed general concerns about potential impacts on
wetlands, aquatic and terrestrial habitats, cumulative
impacts, alternatives, and proposed mitigation. The EPA also
requested that wel/address Executive Order 12898 on
Environmental Justice. The Town of Maiden expressed concern
regarding turbidity in Maiden Creek. The landowners' concerns
included a request to fix a culvert that was placed on a
property owner's property during the first installation of the
Maiden Delivery Lateral; and the inconvenience that
construction would have to the property owners and the
potential problem of access to their driveway during
construction.
The NOI also notified agencies, landowners, and all
other parties to the proceeding of a site visit, which was
conducted on April 3-4, 1997. In addition to the Commission's
staff, three representatives of Transco, and one
representative from Piedmont attended the site visit. A field
inspection of the proposed project and alternatives was
completed.
1/ Pronouns "we," "us", and "our" refer to the environmental
staff of the office of Pipeline Regulation (OPR).

4. Construction, Operation, and Maintenance Procedures
Transco proposes to complete construction of its
facilities for an in-service date of November 1, 1997.
Transco would design, construct, operate, and maintain
the proposed facilities in accordance with the applicable
safety standards established by the U.S. Department of
Transportation (DOT) (49 Code of Federal Regulations [CFR]
192). The standards imposed are in accordance with the
Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act of 1968, as amended.
Transco would use standard cross-country construction
methods to install the loop pipeline. These methods would
consist of clearing, grading, trenching, stringing of pipe,
pipe bending, welding, pipe coating, lowering in, backfill,
cleanup, and hydrostatic testing. Typical construction right-
of-way drawings for the proposed project are shown in appendix
B.
Transco would minimize construction impact by
implementing most of the measures contained in our "Upland
- Erosion Control, Revegetation, and Maintenance Plan" (Plan).
Transco would minimize impacts to wetlands and waterbodies by
implementing the most of the measures contained in our
"Wetland and Waterbody Construction and Mitigation Procedures"
(Procedures). See appendix C.
Transco would use special construction techniques in
residential areas, such as reducing-the right-of-way width and
construction work space, and by working over its existing
pipeline to reduce impacts to residents during construction.
Transco has proposed site-specific measures for 28 residences
within 50 feet of the proposed loop. Further discussion of
these construction techniques is included in the appropriate
section of this EA.
In areas with steep side-slopes, Transco would use a
side-hill construction technique. These areas would be
restored to original contours, stabilized, and reseeded
following backfill of the trench.
During operation and maintenance of the pipeline, .
Transco would periodically patrol the right-of-way from the
air and on foot. These patrols would include cathodic/leak
detection surveys to test the integrity of the pipeline and
encroachment surveys to identify conditions that may endanger
the pipeline. Transco would periodically mow.or otherwise
5
maintain vegetation on. the permanent right-of-way in
accordance with our Plan and Procedures.
Modifications to the Lowesville Meter Station include
grading, excavation, equipment assembly, and restoration to
the existing meter station site. The proposed modifications
would be in accordance with the applicable DOT safety
standards as set forth in 49 CFR Part 192.
5. Land Requirements for Construction
Construction of the proposed facilities would require a
total of about 152.21 acres of land; however, Transco would
only acquire about 1.91 acres of new permanent right-of-way
since its existing 50-foot-wide right-of-way would accommodate
the majority of the proposed pipeline loop.
The proposed loop would parallel and would be offset 20
feet northerly of Transco's existing pipeline. A construction
corridor, 65 feet in width, 5 feet southerly and 60 feet
northerly of the existing pipeline, would be required for the
installation of the new loop, except where noted in appendix
B. Extra work spaces would be required at waterbody and road
crossings (see appendix D). No new access roads would be
required.
Transco has proposed two pipe storage yard sites for
staging, pipe and equipment storage for the proposed project.
Although Transco has requested two sites, it has indicated
that only one would be required for use during construction.
Transco would select its proposed site and indicate in writing
its prefered site, and file it with the Secretary before
construction.
The Lowesville Meter Station currently sits on a 55-foot
by 75-foot site. Modifications to the meter station would,
require an additional 26-foot by 55-foot expansion of the
meter station site, which would extend the existing fenceline
to the north by about 26 feet on Transco's existing right-of-
way. No new land would be acquired for the meter station
modification.
6. Permits, Approvals, and Regulatory Requirements
Transco is in the process of obtaining applicable
permits, clearances, and approvals for the Maiden Lateral
Looping Project. Table 1 lists the permits, approvals and
regulatory requirements and gives the status of each necessary
for this proposal.

B. ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
1. Geology and Soils
a. Geology
The proposed project lies in the Piedmont Physiographic
province of North Carolina. The province is characterized by
topographic low rounded ridges and ravines underlain by coarse
ground soil derived from the parent crystalline bedrock below.
Relief along the proposed project varies from 80 feet in the
southeast to 90 feet on the northwest end.
The only geologic hazard associated with the proposed
pipeline loop is the potential for soil liquefaction o_f
alluvial deposits along the larger streams during an
earthquake. The project area is located in Seismic Zone 2,
which is defined as moderate damage corresponding to Modified
Mercalli Intensity VII. However, the level of ground shaking
needed for liquefaction would need to be greater than what has
7
occurred in historic time. The potential for liquefaction of
the alluvial deposits during the lifetime of the pipeline is
very low. No karst terrain is present in this region of North
Carolina.
The principal mineral resources in the project area
vicinity are sand, gravel, crushed stone, and iron ore. The
sand and gravel deposits are within the flood plains of the
larger streams that drain the project area. The controlling
factor for development of these sources is local need. Two
active crushed stone quarries are in the general vicinity.
However, the pipeline loop would not cross any active mines.
Therefore, no adverse impacts are expected to mineral
resources.
If consolidated rock cannot be mechanically ripped and
blasting a portion of the trenchline is required, Transco
would need to blast areas within the construction right-of-
way. Blasting would be done by a licensed contractor who
would comply with all Federal, state and local codes governing
the transportation, storage, and handling of explosives.
Transco has identified areas where blasting may be required.
Table 2 lists these potential areas by milepost (MP).

9.85 - 10.00
10.75 - 10.83
11.56 - 11.64
4.77 - 14.83
b. Soils
The soils in the project area consist of gently sloping
to steep, well-drained soils, to gently sloping, gravelly
soils. Primary concerns for these types of soils range from
8
soil erosion.and slope management to clayey suboils,
respectively.. Erosion would be the predominant problem
associated with construction. This condition would occur when
the soils, loosened by grading of the right-of-way and
excavation of the trench, are exposed to the elements.
Compaction and rutting of soils by heavy construction
equipment could be a problem where saturated soils or soils
containing a severe shrink-swell capacity occur.
Transco would minimize impact on soils by using its
Soils Plan, which incorporates both the state of North
Carolina's requirements and provisions of our Plan and
Procedures. We believe this plan is adequate for minimizing
erosion-and sedimentation during construction.
. The predominant soil type at the Lowesville Meter
Station is a very deep, well drained soil which is moderately
permeable and has a low shrink-swell potential in the subsoil.
The soil qualifies as prime farmland. However, the meter
station site has been previously disturbed and the expansion
would impact only 0.03 acre of prime farmland.
2. Water Resources and Wetlands
a. Groundwater
A total of 49 private domestic water supply wells are
located within 150 feet of the proposed loop (see table 3).
In addition,, two of these wells,--located at MPs 8.7 and 8.36,
supply more than one structure and currently have waterlines
across the the existing pipeline right-of-way.
The proposed loop is situated among a series of small
groundwater systems that discharge into perennial streams.
These systems provide the primary source of drinking water
along the proposed loop route. The most prevalent system is
comprised of a coarse-grained soil mantle overlying fractured
bedrock. This system provides an intergranular medium through
which-recharge and discharge of water occurs from the
fractured rock.
The second system is comprised of fractured bedrock
covered by alluvial deposits. This type occurs in the
alluvial valleys associated with Forney and Killiam Creeks.
The alluvial layer is thick in this system and has some
characteristics of an.aquifer. However, this system is not
state or federally recognized as an aquifer. .

*C/L = Centerline
** = Wells are located within 50 feet of potential blast sites.
Activities associated with construction of the proposed
loop could result in a temporary, minor impact on groundwater.
Heavy construction equipment could cause soil compaction along
the right-of-way, resulting in reduced soil infiltration rates
in a limited area and grading and trench blasting could cause
temporary changes in water level and turbidity that may affect
groundwater quality and bedrock supply well systems located
along and near the construction right-of-way. Refueling of
vehicles and storing fuel, oil, and other hazardous materials
could create a potential contamination hazard to groundwater
systems if done improperly.
To mitigate potential impacts on local groundwater
supplies, Transco would implement its Soil Plan, which
incorporates our Procedures. In addition, Transco has filed
11
its Spill Prevention, Containment and Control Plan (SPCC Plan)
for the proposed project. We have reviewed the SPCC Plan and
find it acceptable. In addition, Transco would conduct, with
the well owner's permission, pre- and post-construction
monitoring of well yield and water quality for groundwater
wells within 50 feet of the construction right-of-way that are
within the vicinity of potential blast sites.
.Transco filed a "Residential Well Drinking Water Pre-
and Post-Construction Monitoring Plan" (Well Monitoring Plan).
Transco indicates in its Well Monitoring Plan that it has
adopted a 50-foot monitoring area based on research conducted
by the U.S. Bureau of Mines which has shown that blasting
typically occurs within a radius of only 5 to 55 times the
shot hole radius. Assuming that the shot hole diameter is 4
inches, rock cracking is not expected to extend beyond 10 feet
from the blasting location.
Transco proposes to sample water from each well within
50 feet of the construction corridor where potential blasting
may occur 3 weeks prior to and 6 months after pipeline
construction. If the proposed construction activities
adversely affect local groundwater supplies, Transco would
provide a temporary source of water and repair, replace,
and/or restore the supply well or system to its former
capacity.
We believe that Transco's'Well.Monitoring Plan should be
applied to wells within 150 feet of all wells within the
construction corridor, rather that 50 feet of the construction
corridor where blasting may occur, to adequately protect
domestic wells. We believe rock fracture could occur during
construction activities. Therefore, to further ensure the
protection of domestic wells, we recommend that:
Transco should conduct, with the well owner's
permission, pre- and post-construction monitoring of
well, yield and water quality for all private wells and
springs within 150 feet of the construction right-of-
way, as identified in table 3 of this EA. Within 30
days of placing the facilities in service,-Transco
should file a report with the Secretary discussing
whether any complaints were received concerning well
yield or water quality and how each was resolved.
12
In addition, regarding the two waterlines that cross the
right-of-way at MPs 8.07 and 8.36, Transco would construct up
to the waterlines prior to taking them temporarily out of
service. The waterlines would-be restored to pre-existing
conditions following backfilling of the trenchline. In the
interim, Transco would provide a temporary source of water
acceptable to the landowner.
We believe that with implementation of Transco's SPCC
Plan, Transco's Soil Plan, and our recommended mitigation
measures would reduce impacts on private water supply wells
and groundwater supplies.
No groundwater resources would be affected by the
modification of the meter station.
b. Surface Water
A total of 41 waterbodies would be crossed by the
proposed loop. Of these, 27 are perennial and 14 are
intermittent (see table 4). No surface waterbodies would be
affected by construction at the Lowesville Meter Station. ----
As indicated in section A.l.a, blasting may be required
where bedrock is shallow or above grade (see table 2). In
addition, Transco has identified four waterbodies which may
require blasting during construction activities (see table 4).
Our Procedures require that Transco file with the Secretary of
the Commission (Secretary) a schedule identifying when
trenching or blasting would occur,within.each waterbody
greater than 10 feet wide, or within any coldwater fishery.
The waterbodies to be crossed carry a relatively high
sediment load and are turbid during storm events. Depostional
areas of the main stream channels contain coarse sand.
Scoured areas contain bedrock, boulders, or cobble.
No contaminated sediments were identified within one
mile-of the construction right-of-way-
The Town of Maiden's filtration plant is-_located on
Maiden Creek about 1.4 river miles downstream of the proposed
loop. We received a comment from the Town.of Maiden regarding
the potential impacts that construction could have to Maiden
Creek (MP 15.06), the town's only source of water supply.
Specifically, the Town Manager is concerned that construction
in the creek could cause turbidity and sedimentation which
would have a critical effect to its only source of water
supply. The Town of Maiden has had a problem in the past with
13
a construction project which caused siltation and had a
negative effect on the water supply.

Transco's Soil Plan, which incorporates most of our
Procedures, would include notification procedures such as:
• Providing written notification to authorities
responsible for portable surface water supply intakes
.located within 3 miles downstream of the crossing at
least 1 week before beginning work in the waterbody; and
• Notification to the state authorities within 48 hours
before beginning trenching or blasting within the
waterbody.
In addition, Transco's Soil Plan would include mitigation
measures such as:
• Limiting the clearing of vegetation between extra work
areas and the edge of the waterbody to the certificated
construction right-of-way;
• Locating all extra work areas at least 50 feet away from
the waterbody boundaries, where topographic conditions
permit; _ -
Constructing the crossings as close to perpendicular to
the axis of the waterbody channel as engineering and
routing conditions permits;
• Placing all spoil from minor and intermediate waterbody
crossings in the construction right-of-way at least 10
feet from the water's edge or in approved work space
areas;
• Usage of an equipment bridge for construction equipment
access; and
• Usage of sediment barriers to prevent the flow of spoil
into a waterbody.
In addition, Transco proposes in its Well Monitoring
Plan to monitor potable water supplies on a case-by-case
basis. If the proposed construction activities---adversely
affect local potable water supplies, Transco would provide a
temporary source of water; add supplemental--filtration and
purification chemicals to the existing water supply; and
repair, replace, and/or restore the system to its former
capacity.
15
-Implementation of the above mitigation measures would
minimize construction impacts to Maiden Creek and other
waterbodies crossed by the proposed loop.
Transco proposes to hydrostatic test its new pipeline
loop with water, to be obtained from Wingate Creek (MP 6.92).
All water would be discharged, following completion-of the
test, into dewatering structures as depicted in Transco's Soil
Plan. The dewatering structures would be located at least 100
feet from the edge of the creek and all wetlands. Transco
would implement the hydrostatic test requirements as outlined
in our Procedures. No chemical additives would be used for
hydrostatic testing.
No surface waters would be affected by the meter station
modifications.
C. Wetlands
The proposed pipeline loop would cross 15 wetlands.
Table 5 lists each wetland.and provides wetland type, crossing
length, and the acreage that would be disturbed during
construction. The wetland information was determined by a
field delineation conducted by Transco using the Corps of
Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual. (1987).
Construction would result in disturbance of up to 1.4
acres of wetlands, of which 0:93 acres is forested wetlands.
Most of the impact on wetlands would be temporary, occurring
during construction as a result of clearing, trenching, pipe
installation, and backfilling. .liese activities may have
short-term effects on water qua ity and flow, floodwater
retention, quality of wildlife habitat, and aesthetics.
Generally, the only long-term or permanent impact would be the
loss of trees and large shrubs on the right-of-way.
Transco would use its existing-right-of-way for
construction to minimize impacts to wetlands. The
implementation of Transco's Soil Plan, which incorporates our
Procedures, would ensure.best-management practices while
constructing through wetlands. Transco would minimize short-
and long-term impact on wetlands by using the mitigation
measures in its Soil Plan.
No wetlands would be affected by the meter station
modifications.

Transco has applied for its section 404 Nationwide
Permit from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE) and its
section 401 Water Quality Certification from the NCDEHNR.
Table 1 lists the anticipated approval dates from these
agencies.
In addition, Transco would give the NCDEHNR 30 days
prior notice before construction to comply with its NPDES
permit (Section 402).
3. Vegetation and Wildlife
a. Vegetation
Forest is the primary vegetation affected by Transco's
proposed loop; however, only 0.85 acres of new forest would be
cleared since Transco would use its existing right-of-way to
construct its new loop pipeline. The primary impact on
vegetation would be associated with clearing of vegetation
17
within the construction right-of-way and temporary disturbance
caused by vehi-cular traffic and temporary staging of equipment
in vegetated areas. Where grading would be necessary to
create a level and safe working surface for equipment, stumps
would be excavated.
Long-term impacts on vegetation from construction would
be the permanent conversion of forest to herbaceous and shrub
cover for maintenance of Transco's permanent right-of-way. We
believe this impact would be minimized since Transco would
require only 1.91 acres of new permanent right-of-way.
b. Wildlife
Wildlife species found along Transco's right-of-way are
those common to forested uplands, wetlands, cultivated
agricultural lands, and open land. Construction of the
proposed loop and meter station would result in temporary and
permanent impact on wildlife habitat, as well as minor,
temporary impact on wildlife in the vicinity of the
construction areas. Of all habitats that would be affected by
the proposed project, the clearing of forested area.-along
Transco's right-of-way would be the most significant.
However, we believe that since Transco's proposed loop would
be adjacent to existing, maintained right-of-way and no near
cleared corridors would be created, the incremental impact on
wildlife would be minor.
In a letter to Transco dated August 5, 1996, the North
Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) requested that
Transco plant a portion of the right-of-way with VA-70
lespedeza; Korean lespedeza, ladino clover, and/or partridge
pea to provide food and additional habitat for wildlife.
Transco has indicated that these species would be incorporated
into its seed mix to enhance wildlife benefits.
The letter from NCWRC also included a provision which
requested, "If necessary, right-of-way areas should be mowed
not more than once every 2-3 years. Mowing should be done in
February and March only to--protect small game nesting later in
the year."
Transco spoke to the staff of the NCWRC about this
statement (included in a telephone conversation log which
Transco included in its environmental report). Transco
indicated that it proposes to mow its rights-of-way in ---
conjunction with periodic corrosion and leak survey program,
which is conducted every two years. Transco also indicates
that mowing is done in conjunction with the dry seasons to
18
prevent erosion control problems that frequently occur from
mowing during the rainy season. Transco's conversation log
does not indicate whether the NCWRC concurred with its
maintenance/mowing procedures.
. We believe Transco's Soil Plan does not adequately
address maintenance activities. In addition, the Soil Plan
conflicts with the information that was given to the NCWRC.
Transco's Soil Plan states that Transco may mow its right-of-
way once or twice a year, but mowing may not be necessary.
The information from the letter to the NCWRC indicates that
Transco would mow its right-of-way in conjunction with
periodic corrosion and leak 'survey program, which is conducted
every two years.
Our experience with right-of-way maintenance practices
such as mowing, has indicated that routine vegetation
maintenance performed more frequently than every 3 years can
disturb small game and wildlife. In addition, song birds may
benefit by using the scrub growth for nesting and foraging.
We.recognize the need for Transco to perform its periodic
corrosion and leak surveys. Therefore, we allow a corridor
not exceeding 10 feet in width centered on the pipeline to be
maintained annually in a herbaceous state. In light of this,
we recommend:
• Routine vegetation maintenance clearing should not be
done more frequently than every 3 years. However, to
facilitate periodic corrosion and leak surveys, a
corridor not exceeding 10 feet in width centered on the
pipeline may be maintained annually in a herbaceous
state. In no case should routine vegetation maintenance
clearing occur,between April 15 and August 1 of any
year.
4. Threatened and Endangered Species
Transco, acting as the Commission's non-federal
representative, consulted with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife -
Service (FWS), the NCWRC, and the NCDEHNR to determine listed
species potentially occurring in the project area. Two
federally.listed species, the Michaux's sumac and the-dwarf-
flowered heartleaf, were identified as potentially occurring
in the project area. Transco conducted surveys for these two
federally listed species. In addition, Transco surveyed for
14 additional species, considered to be rare or of special
concern in the state of North Carolina.
19
No federally listed species or species of concern were
located within a 100-foot-wide corridor to either side of the
existing right-of-way or along extra work areas.
In letters dated August 1, 1996 and March 10, 1997, the
FWS, Raleigh, North Carolina Field Office issued letters to
Transco stating that "the Service concurs that this project is
not likely to adversely affect any Federally listed endangered
or threatened species, their formally designated critical
habitat, or species currently proposed for Federal listing
under the Endangered Species. Act, as amended." We concur with
this finding.
5. Cultural Resources
Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act
(NHPA), as amended, requires the Commission to take into
account the effects of its undertakings (including issuance of
certificates) on properties on or eligible for the National
Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and to afford the Advisory
Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP) an opportunity to
comment on the undertaking. Transco, as a non-Federal party,
is assisting us in meeting our obligations under Section 106
and the ACHP's regulations at 36 CFR 800. Construction and
operation of the project could affect historic properties,
i.e., cultural resources listed on or eligible for listing on
the NRHP. These could include prehistoric or historic
archaeological sites, districts, buildings, structures or
objects, and locations with traditional cultural value to
Native Americans. Such properties generally must possess
integrity of location, design, .sting, workmanship, feeling,
and association, and must meet one or more of the criteria set
forth in 36 CFR 60.4.
Transco has completed a cultural resources survey for
the project. Areas surveyed included a 125-foot-wide corridor
for the 17.77-mile-long Maiden Delivery Lateral Loop, the
Lowesville Meter Station expansion, two pipe storage yards,
and numerous extra work spaces. Two prehistoric sites, one
historic site, six historic isolated finds and two prehistoric
isolated finds were located as a result of the survey. None
of these were recommended as eligible for the NRHP. In
letters dated September 21, 1996 and February 5, 1997, the
North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO)
agreed with these recommendations and stated that none of
these sites exhibit "sufficient integrity or potentially
significant archaeological or historic data to be considered
eligible resources...." We agree.
20
Transco provided the SHPO and the FERC with a plan for
dealing with the unanticipated discovery of historic
properties and human remains. In a letter dated-April 24,
1997, the SHPO commented on the plan and recommended certain
amendments. On May 7, 1997, Transco filed a revised plan
addressing the SHPO's comments. We have reviewed the plan and
found it acceptable.
In letters dated June 14, 1996 and October 18, 1996,
Transco requested that the SHPO provide "a list of groups,
including American Indians, who may have knowledge of, or
interest in, cultural resources which may be affected by the
proposed protect." The SHPO has not identified any of these
groups to date. Transco indicated that if any groups are
identified, "they would be contacted and their comments filed
with the Commission for consideration."
6. Land Use
a. Land Use
Construction of the proposed loop would affect a total
of 152.21 acres of land, primarily comprised of existing
right-of-way. Table 6 lists the types of land use affected by
construction. Within the proposed 65-foot-wide construction
corridor, Transco'would typically construct the loop 20 feet
to the north of its existing 10-inch Maiden Delivery Lateral.
This 20-foot offset would allow Transco to construct a
majority of the loop within its existing 50-foot-wide right-
of-way.
In addition to the 65-foot-wide construction corridor,
Transco's proposal would require additional temporary work
spaces at road, railroad, stream, and wetland crossings; at
Transco's Main Line tie-in; and at the loop terminal. In
total, Transco would use about 13.42 acres of temporary work
space, not including the two cleared fields proposed for pipe
staging and equipment storage (each about 8 acres). Appendix
D lists the temporary workspace required by Transco's proposed
project. No new access roads would be constructed.
Following construction, Transco would maintain its
existing 50-foot-wide right-of-way and would only require 1.91
acres of new permanent right-of-way. The new permanent right-
of-way is required for the twelve proposed crossover locations
and areas where the existing right-of way is less than 50 feet
(see table 7). Transco would restore the required temporary
work space and allow these areas to revert to their previous
uses.

land features.
xi Forested land includes: forested uplands and wetlands, planted pines, clear-
or selectively cut areas, scrub-shrub areas; open Field includes: non-
forested land, pasture, open space; Agricultural Land includes: active
cropland, orchards, hay fields; Residential Land includes: subdivisions,
residential yards.
Generally, the only restrictions on the permanent right-
of-way would include prohibiting the growth of trees and the
building of permanent structures. Transco would acquire
easements from affected landowners to use the temporary-and
permanent rights-of-way, and it would.compensate landowners
according to negotiated agreements. Further, Transco's
proposed loop would not cross or affect any natural, scenic,
or recreational areas of public interest.
Transco would limit impact on a low security
correctional facility property at MP 17.68 by installing the
pipeline within Transco's existing right-of-way through the
facility's parking lot.
Transco's proposed modifications to the Lowesville Meter
Station include extending the yard and fence to the northern
edge of the cleared right-of-way by 26 feet (0.03 acres).
Since Transco would construct these modifications on its
existing Maiden Delivery Lateral right-of-way, the
modifications would not require additional right-of-way or
affect existing land uses.

b. Residences
Project construction would affect 30 residences that are
within 50 feet of the construction right-of-way; 17 of these
residences are within 25 feet of the proposed construction
work space. Table 8 identifies the location of 30 residences
within 50 feet of the construction right-of-way. In total,
construction activities would disturb 24.15 acres of
residential land.
Transco's proposed site-specific mitigation measures to
minimize construction related impacts on residences include:
0 reducing the construction work space between MP 12.78-
12.84 and between 15.04-15.09;
• crossing over the existing pipeline to move the proposed
pipeline away from residences between MP,8.10-8.15, MP
11.80-11.86, MP 12.73-12.99, and MP 16.66-16.77; and

• reducing the centerline spacing between MP 15.71-15.85.
In addition, Transco would further minimize impacts to
residents by using a stove-pipe or drag-section construction
technique in certain areas. This involves digging the trench,
installing the pipe, and backfilling in one day so no trench
would remain open overnight. Transco would avoid the removal
of mature trees and landscaping, and would restore all lawn
areas immediately after the trench is backfilled. Transco
would fence the workspace throughout the open trench phase
(see table 8). In addition, all residents would be notified
by Transco verbally before construction. Access for residents
would be kept open at all times. -Transco's mitigation
measures for residences within 25 feet of the proposed
construction corridor are further described in Transco's Soil
Plan, Map Volume 2, Alignment Sheets, pages 69 through 78.
We received a comment in response to the NOI from..
landowners of a small cattle farm near MP 9.0. The landowners
are concerned that Transco's proposed construction could
endanger their cattle and would inconvenience access to their
house, well, and a newly constructed driveway. Transco would
install 200 linear feet of sediment barrier fabric and 200
linear feet of safety fence around construction activities.
In addition, Transco proposes to use either the stove-pipe or
drag-section construction technique at this residence.
Transco would also open cut the private drive immediately
before pipeline installation and repair this crossing
immediately following installation.
A resident near MP 15.0 requested that Transco replace a
10-inch-diameter culvert across a drainage that has undergone
some change in land use with a 24-inch-diameter culvert. The
property owner states that the land use at the northeast and
east side of the culvert has changed from unattended woodlands
to cleared fields and that water often flows over the top
creating washout conditions surrounding the culvert. The
resident also requested that Transco remove debris that was
placed on the owner's property during the original Maiden
Delivery Lateral installation.
At this location, Transco plans to: (1) install a 30-
inch-diameter culvert at this location; and (2)remove debris
from the right-of-way and grade the right-of-way to the proper
condition for seeding.
Construction of the proposed loop across three state
highways, 17 state road crossings, 16 local access roads, and
9 private driveway locations would inconvenience residents by
25
temporary delays and disruption of normal road traffic.
However, these effects would be confined to the daylight hours
during construction, and-would be temporary. To-minimize
these effects, Transco proposes to: (1) bore all state
designated roadways; and (2) open cut dirt, gravel, and
private paved drives immediately before pipeline installation
and repair these crossings immediately following construction.
Transco would construct the road crossings according to the
state and federal regulations governing these rights-of-way.
We conclude that Transco's proposed mitigation measures
would adequately minimize impacts on adjacent residences
Transco's proposed construction methods would also adequately
minimize road access inconveniences and minimize road traffic
disruptions.
The modifications proposed at the Lowesville Meter
Station would not affect land use.
C. Environmental Justice
Executive Order 12898 on Environmental Justice requires
that environmental analyses of proposed Federal actions
address any disproportionately high and adverse human health
or environmental effects on minority and low-income
communities. Federal agencies' responsibilities under this
order also apply equally to Native American programs. In
addition, each Federal agency must ensure that public
documents, notices, and hearings are readily accessible to the
public.
Our mailing distribution list for this EA was initiated
when the NOI of the proposed project was-first issued, and has
been continually updated during this EA process. The mailing
list includes all property, owners without any distinction
based on minority or income status. Section A.3. describes
the public notification and participation process. Section
B.5. describes the effort to contact Native American tribes
that traditionally occupied, or currently occupy, the project
area.
Transco's proposed project would supply natural gas to a
specific customer. The installation of the proposed pipeline
loop along existing cleared right-of-way is generally
preferable to creating entirely new right-of-way because
impact associated with construction is confined to an existing
corridor.
26
We require that an applicant initially identify all
residences within 50 feet of the construction work area. From
this information, we analyze the pipeline route with respect
to: (1) how close the proposed right-of-way is to the
residence; and (2) other engineering constraints that may
affect construction and the safety and welfare of residents.
Special construction procedures, techniques, and/or site-
specific mitigation measures are then identified to minimize
impact to any residences potentially affected by construction,
without any distinction to the income or minority status of
the resident.
We believe that with the implementation of Transco's
proposed mitigation measures, construction of the project
would not result. in a significant impact on urban or
residential areas. In addition, we have not identified any
disproportionately high and adverse human health or
environmental effects on minority and low-income communities
or Native American groups.
7. Safety
The proposed pipeline loop and meter station would be
constructed, tested, operated, and maintained in accordance
with the DOT Minimum Federal Safety Standards in 49 CFR Part
192. The regulations are intended to ensure adequate
protection for the public and to-prevent natural gas facility
accidents and failures. Part 192 specifies material selection
and qualification, minimum design requirements, and protection
from internal, external, and atmospheric corrosion.- In
addition, these standards define area classifications, based
on population density. More stringent safety considerations
are required in more populated areas.
The safety standards specified in Part 192 require each
pipeline operator to:
• develop an emergency plan prepared by the pipeline
company, working with local fire departments and other
agencies to identify personnel to be contacted,
equipment to be mobilized, and procedures to be
performed to respond to a hazardous condition caused by
the pipeline;
• establish and maintain a liason with the appropriate
fire, police, and public officials in order to
coordinate mutual assistance when responding to
emergencies; and
27
• establish a continuing education program to enable
customers, the public, government officials, and those
engaged in excavation activities to recognize a natural
gas pipeline emergency and report it to appropriate
.public officials.
Because the proposed project would comply with these
regulations, we believe that the risk posed by the project
would be negligible, particularly in light of safety factors
required by the DOT minimum Federal safety standards. .
C. ALTERNATIVES
The Commission has three alternative courses of action
in processing a certificate application. It may grant the
application with or without conditions,-postpone action
pending further study, or deny the application. The
Commission will decide among these alternatives, based on
which course of action would best serve the public convenience
and necessity.
Our review of the facilities in this EA address
environmental impact only. Non-environmental aspects of the
project will be addressed by the Commission at such time as it
considers the entirety of the proposal.
1. No Action or Postponed Action
The no action alternative would avoid any short- or
long-term environmental impacts described in this EA.
However, if the project is not certificated or is postponed,
the potential increased system reliability and flexibility for
Piedmont would not be achieved. Transco would not be'able to
expand a larger portion of Piedmont's existing authorized
transportation quantities to be delivered through the Maiden
Delivery Lateral.
2. Route Variations
As stated earlier, the installation of pipeline along
existing cleared right-of-way is generally preferable to
creating entirely new right-of-way because impact associated
with construction is confined to an existing corridor. A.
route variation that would be entirely off of the existing
right-of-way would require an entirely new construction right-
of-way and result in a greater disturbance of land.
28
In addition, Transco has identified those areas where
crossovers were made to minimize disturbance to residences. A
minimal amount of new right-of-way would be required to construct
Transco's new loop pipeline. Further, we believe that all
potential impacts have been adequately mitigated. Therefore, we
did not find it necessary to evaluate any route alternatives
because the proposed project would provide the gas required in
Transco's proposal and would be environmentally preferable to any
other route alternative or system alternative.
The expansion of the meter station by 0.03 acres would occur
on existing right-of-way. Since no significant resource issues
were identified and potential impacts have been adequately
mitigated, we did not evaluate any alternative meter station
sites.
D. STAFF'S CONCLUSION AND RECOHMNDATIONS
The Environmental Review and Compliance Branch I concludes
that approval of this proposal would not constitute a major
Federal action significantly affecting the quality of the human
environment. This finding is based on the above environmental
analysis; Transco's application and supplements filed on February
4, April 30, May 7 and May 27, 1997; and implementation of our
mitigation measures below. We recommend that the Commission
Order contain a finding of no significant impact and include the
mitigation measures listed below as conditions to any certificate
that the Commission may issue. Responses to conditions 4 and 5
will assist us when we conduct field inspections and compliance
monitoring activities.
Staff's Recommended Mitigation
1. Transco shall follow the construction procedures and
mitigation measures described in its application and
supplements (including responses to staff data requests) and
as identified in the environmental assessment (EA), unless
modified by these certificate conditions. Transco must:
a. request any modification to these procedures, measures,
or conditions in a filing with the Secretary of the
Commission (Secretary) ;
b. justify each modification relative to site-specific
conditions;
C. explain how that modification provides an equal or
greater level of environmental protection than the
original measure; and
d. receive approval in writing from the Director of the
29
Office of Pipeline Regulation (OPR) before using that
modification.
2. The Director of OPR has delegation authority to take
whatever steps are necessary to insure the protection of all
environmental resources during construction and operation of
the project. This authority shall allow:
a. the modification of conditions of this Order; and
b. the design and implementation of any additional
measures deemed necessary (including stop work
authority) to assure continued compliance with the
intent of the environmental conditions as well as the
avoidance or mitigation of adverse environmental impact
resulting from project construction and operation.
3. Prior to any construction, Transco shall file an affirmative
statement with the Secretary, certified by a senior company
official,- that all company personnel, environmental
inspectors, and contractor personnel will be informed of the
environmental inspector's authority and have been or will be
trained on the implementation of the environmental
..-mitigation measures appropriate to their.jobs before
becoming involved with construction and restoration
activities.
4. -The authorized facility locations shall be as shown in the
EA, as supplemented by filed alignment sheets, and shall
include all of the staff's recommended facility locations
identified in the EA. As soon as they are available, and
before the start of construction, Transco shall file with
the Secretary revised detailed survey alignment maps/sheets
at a scale not smaller than 1:6,000 with station positions
for the pipeline approved by this Order. All requests for
modifications of environmental conditions of this Order or
site-specific clearances must be written and must reference
locations designated on these alignment maps/sheets.
5. Within 60 days of the acceptance of this certificate and
before construction begins, Transco shall file an initial
Implementation Plan with the Secretary for review and
written approval by the Director of OPR describing how
Transco will implement the mitigation measures required by
this Order. Transco must file revisions to the plan as
schedules change. The plan shall identify:
a. how Transco will incorporate these requirements into
.. the contract bid documents, construction contracts
30
(especially penalty clauses and specifications), and
construction drawings so that the mitigation required
at each site is clear to onsite construction and
inspection personnel;
b. the number of environmental inspectors assigned per
spread, and how the company will ensure that sufficient
personnel are available to implement the environmental
mitigation;
C. company personnel, including environmental inspectors
and contractors, who will receive copies of the
appropriate material;
d. what training and instructions Transco will give to all
personnel involved with construction and restoration
(initial and refresher training as the project
progresses and personnel change),the company personnel
(if known) and specific portion of Transco's
organization having responsibility for compliance;
e. the procedures (including use of contract penalties)
Transco will follow if noncompliance occurs; and
f. for each discrete facility, a Gantt or PERT chart (or
similar project scheduling diagram), and dates for:
i. the mitigation training of onsite personnel;
ii. the start of construction; and
iii. the start and completion of restoration.
6. Transco must receive written authorization from the Director-
of OPR before commencing service from the project. Such
authorization will only be granted following a determination
that rehabilitation and restoration of the right-of-way is
proceeding satisfactory.
7. Within 30 days of placing the certificated facilities in
service, Transco shall file an affirmative statement with
the Secretary, certified by a senior company official:
a. that the facilities have been constructed and installed
in compliance with all applicable conditions, and that
continuing activities will be consistent with all
applicable conditions; or
b. identifying which of the certificate conditions Transco
has complied with or will comply with. This statement
shall also identify any areas along the right-of-way
where compliance measures were not properly
implemented, if not previously identified in filed
status reports, and the reason for noncompliance.

31
8. Transco shall conduct pre- and post-construction monitoring
of yield and water quality for all private wells and springs
within 150 feet of the construction right-of-way, as
identified in table 3 of this EA. Within 30 days of placing
the facilities in service, Transco shall file a report with
the Secretary discussing whether any complaints were
received concerning well yield or water quality and how each
was resolved.
9. Routine vegetation maintenance clearing should not be done
more frequently than every_3 years. However, to facilitate
periodic corrosion and leak surveys, a corridor not
exceeding 10 feet in width centered on the pipeline may be
maintained annually in a herbaceous state. In no case
should routine vegetation maintenance clearing occur between
February 1 and August 1 of any year.

INTRODUCTION
The Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Plan (SESCP) for the proposed project is in two parts,
the SESCP construction drawings and the following SESCP Narrative. The construction
drawings contain all of the information necessary to locate and install the soil erosion and "
sediment control measures. The SESCP Narrative contains background information and
engineering calculations as required by the reviewing agencies to prove the adequacy of the
proposed control measures. A complete list of the construction drawings containing the SESCP,
including the vicinity map, site plan, installation details, specifications, and notes, is included in
the Appendix.
The proposed SESCP has been developed by Transcontinental Gas Pipeline Corporation (TGPL)
in accordance with the latest best management practices for minimizing soil erosion and
controlling sediment pollution during the construction of natural gas pipeline facilities.
Additionally the SESCP and proposed practices are designed in compliance with Federal, state
and local regulations.
The SESCP construction drawings and the SESCP Narrative shall be kept on site during
construction.

PROJECT SCOPE
This project involves the construction of a 17.77 mile, 16" pipeline loop of the existing Maiden Lateral.
The Loop will begin at the Mainline tie-in, M.P. 0.00 in Lincoln county and terminate at Prison Camp
road valve setting at M.P. 17.77 in CATAWBA county. The pipeline will be designed for an MAOP of
800 PSIG. The loop will generally be installed within the existing easement, 20 feet to the north of the
existing 10" lateral (refer to attached project location map). At certain locations the new line will be
installed to the south of the existing line due to other design considerations and or landowner request.
SITE DESCRIPTION
The project will include excavating , installing and testing the new pipe, backfilling the trench,
and restoring the area to pre-construction conditions. A total of 152.26 acres of land will be
disturbed during the construction process along the entire 17.77 miles of right of way (ROW),
(this includes land contained in existing ROW, additional land for construction corridor, and
additional work spaces). The current alignment will impact approximately 84.21 acres of forest
(55.3% of total disturbed area), 18.84 acres of open field (12.4% of total disturbed area), 24.15
acres of residential land (15.86% of total disturbed area), and about 25.04 acres of agricultural
land (16.45% of total disturbed area). All disturbed lands will be restored to their pre-
construction contours and revegetated. . There will be no paved areas or other impervious
surfaces constructed.

DESIGN OF CONTROL MEASURES
SITE CONDmoNs
1. REGIONAL AREA, VEGETATION, AND LAND USAGE
The topography of the proposed ROW is predominantly rolling to hilly. Elevation ranges
from 700 feet to about 1020 feet above sea level. The slopes throughout the disturbed land
varies between 2% - 8%. This topography is typical for the upper piedmont region in North
Carolina. There are a few perennial streams that cross the pipeline, which were identified
using 7 %2 minute quadrangle map and company survey teams. Land use adjacent to the
right of way varies from open pasture land, open and wooded residential to woodlands. But
the majority of land consists of wooded areas.
2. AVERAGE RAINFALL
The total annual precipitation is about 48 inches. Of this, 25 inches, or 52%,-usually falls in
April through September. Between these months the precipitation can vary between a
maximum of 6.41 inches to a low of 1.59. All the Soil Erosion measures where designed for
the 10 year 24 Hour storm contingency.. this region a 10 year storm would precipitate
about 5 inches of rainfall in 24 hours. This design criteria was specified by the North
Carolina Soil Conservation Service. All temporary culvert sizing was done in accordance to
a 2 year 24 hour storm condition.
3. TGPL RIGHT-oF-WAY
The existing TGPL right-of-way is 50 feet wide. TGPL proposes to obtain a total of 65 feet
wide corridor for construction. This 65 foot width will utilize 40 feet of the existing ROW
and proposes to obtain 25 feet of additional width along the entire length of the project. The
Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Measures were designed accordingly. This 65 foot band

was designated as the minimum work corridor for the installation of this pipeline. Extra
work spaces will be obtained as needed and specified on the SE&SCP drawings. These
spaces are needed to give extra room to the contractor due to topographical obstructions and
necessary for various pipeline activities during construction.
• EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL PRACTICES FOR UPLAND AREAS
To prevent erosion in this condition diversion terraces and silt collection pits were used (refer
to Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Plan). Diversion terraces were evenly placed
according to the terrain slope. These diversion terraces will be used to decrease the sheet.
flow velocity across the construction corridor during construction and across the revegetated
right of way after construction. The runoff from the diversion terraces was collected in a silt
pit to allow the larger migrant sediment particles to precipitate. This will reduce the runoff
from the right off way. Trench plugs will be utilized to minimize the runoff in the
uncompacted trench soil. They were evenly spaced on relatively steep slopes. Silt fences
were utilized where aggressive terrain slope would increase erosion.

• EROSION AND SEDEVIENT CONTROL PRACTICES FOR WATERBODIES
MINOR WATERBODIES
All minor waterbody will be crossed using the open-cut technique of construction.
The drainage area for these creeks was measured and the erosion control measures
were designed accordingly. It was found that all minor creeks were sourced by
relatively moderate sized drainage areas. The volume of runoff water from these
areas was calculated and the resulting velocity and shear stress through the creek was
calculated. As a general practice Erosion Control Blanket will be installed 10 ft on
either side of the banks of all minor creeks.
INTERMEDIATE WATERBODIES
Only eight Intermediate size creeks will be crossed with the current alignment.
Each creek was studied for its Hydraulic characteristics separately. The soil
erosion measures were designed depending on the drainage area associated with
the specific creek. The integrity of the bank was a concern at all these creeks. It
was noticed that the soil conditions at these creeks was such that it might be
incapable to support the heavy construction activity involved in the pipeline
installation. In such instances extra work spaces where identified to supply the
contractor with enough room. As a general practice a 10 foot buffer zone, where
no vegetation will be removed on either side of the creek bank, was identified. All
extra work spaces where placed 50 feet away from the creek bank except in cases
where the steep grade of the terrain would render this space useless (for example
Forney creek). The western bank of the creek is quiet steep and any extra space
here too far up the hill would be useless. Construction has identified a definite

need for work space on this bank, and 'so the extra workspace was placed 10 feet
from the bank. In the case of Killian creek, special measures will have to be
followed. The creek bank will have to be stabilized because of the soil conditions.
The west bank at Killian creek is eroding dramatically due to the existing
hydraulic condition. The west bank of the creek poses danger to the existing 10
inch line. Due to this Transco proposes to stabilize the bank in the most effective
and natural way possible so as to maintain the integrity of the 10 inch pipeline.
extra work space was identified all the way up to the creek bank to allow the
contractor to remove existing debris from the stream in order to normalize the flow
throw this section.
EROSION AND SEDMENT CONTROL PRACTICES FOR WETLANDS
When the pipeline crosses a wetland area, the contractor will top soil segregate the
trench soil. Silt fence will be placed on the outer limits of the wetland area to
prevent any right of way runoff to enter the wetland. The pipeline contractor will
be required to install some. form of matting across the wetland, prior to crossing
any wetland.

MAINTENANCE PLAN
During construction, all soil erosion and sediment control measures shall be inspected on a daily basis
and maintained and/or repaired as needed to assure continued performance of their intended function.
After construction is complete, all soil erosion and sedimentation control measures will be checked for
stability and operation following every runoff producing rainfall but in no case less than once every
week. Any needed repairs will be made immediately to maintain all measures as designed.
Sediment will be removed from behind sediment barriers when it accumulates to 6" deep and from
sediment traps when they are approximately 50% full. All temporary soil erosion and sedimentation
control measures shall be disposed of within 30 days after final site stabilization by revegetation is
achieved or after temporary measures are no longer needed. Trapped sediment and other disturbed soil
areas resulting from the disposition or maintenance shall be permanently stabilized to prevent further
erosion and sedimentation loss.
During construction, the company authorized representative will be responsible for implementation of
soil erosion and sedimentation control practices. After construction is complete, responsibility for
maintenance of soil erosion and sedimentation control shall be passed onto the Company's division
office located at:

excessive erosion, and any required corrective action will be implemented in accordance with the soil
erosion and sedimentation control plan, revegetation plan and, if applicable, the Stream and wetland
Construction and Mitigation Plan.
REVEGETATION PLAN
The purpose. of this plan is to provide instructions for planting a vegetative cover to
soil erosion. Vegetation will be used as both a temporary and permanent erosion control practice.
This plan applies to upland areas and wet areas not classified as wetlands only; vegetation
requirements for riparian zones, waterbody banks and wetlands are contained in the "Wetland
and Waterbody Construction and Mitigation" section of the SESCP. -..'
Disturbed areas will be considered permanently stabilized upon the establishment of a uniform
and erosion resistant perennial vegetative cover similar in density to the adjacent undisturbed
areas, based on representative random sampling.
GENERAL
1. Unless an alternative seed mix is specifically requested by the landowner or local land
managing agency, the seed mixes in Table I, and Table II as approved by the local Soil
Conservation authority shall be used.
2. Any soil disturbance that occurs outside of the recommended seeding season or any bare soil
left unstabilized by vegetation shall be mulched and seeded with the temporary seeding mix
in Table I.

2. In-waterbody work shall not commence until authorities responsible for potable water
supplies located within 3 miles are notified at least one week in advance.
3. When appropriate alternate access is available and there is to be more than 1 month
between final cleanup and planting of perennial vegetation, bridges shall be removed.
4. Equipment crossings shall be removed from waterbodies that contain cold water
fisheries or significant warmwater fisheries at the earliest possible time when
appropriate alternate access is available.
STAGING AREAS
1. Where topographic conditions allow, staging areas, additional spoil storage areas, and
other additional work areas for, the waterbody crossing shall be located at least 50 feet
back from the waterbody bank and shall be limited to the minimum size area
practicable for preparation of the waterbody crossing. Where topographic conditions
prohibit the 50 feet buffer, a COMPANY approved site specific plan may allow
additional work areas up to a 10 feet minimum distance from the water's edge.
Vegetation between these additional work areas and the waterbody shall not be
cleared.
2. Construction of access roads, assembly areas, and temporary equipment storage areas
required for waterbody crossing shall be completed prior to any in-waterbody work.
Access roads across a waterbody shall use a construction equipment bridge as shown
in the SESCP. Normal waterbody flow and expected high flow shall not be restricted.

or within any municipal watershed area, unless specifically permitted to do so.
Refueling of all construction equipment shall take place at least 100 feet from any
waterbody, whenever possible. Where conditions require that construction equipment
(e.g., pontoon-mounted backhoes, trench dewatering pumps) be refueled within 100
feet of any waterbody, such refueling shall be performed in accordance with the
project Spill Prevention, Containment, and Countermeasure Plan.
4. No material shall be placed on waterbody banks so as to impair surface water flow
into or out of a wetland area and flow rates shall be maintained at all times.
MINOR WATERBODY CROSSINGS
a) A minor waterbody is defined as having a flow width (water's edge to water's

Dear Mr. Crabtree:
Please reference your April 22, 1997 application for Department of the
Army authorization to install 17.77 miles of 16-inch natural gas line. You
are proposing to expand your Maiden Delivery facilities to provide
transportation of natural gas from Transco's Main Line facilities in
Lincoln County to Piedmont Natural Gas Company's Maiden pipeline tie-in near
Maiden, in Catawba County,' North Carolina. It will be necessary to cross
approximately 25 watercourses along the project corridor. The new line will
be installed within an existing Transco right-of-way which has an existing
10-inch natural gas line. The construction will require permanent clearing of
approximately 0.129 acres of forested wetlands. All other forested and non-
forested wetland impacts (approximately 0.901 acres) will be temporary and
will be restored to pre-construction conditions through natural revegetation.
On January 1, 1994, we renewed general permit No. 198100049, (copy
enclosed) that authorizes the maintenance, repair and installation of aerial
and subaqueous utility lines with attendant structures and the discharge of
excavated or fill materials, within construction/access corridors, associated
with utility line maintenance, repair and installation in navigable waters and
waters of the United States in the State of North Carolina.
Your proposed work is authorized if you can comply with all permit
conditions and the attached special condition. Please read the enclosed
permit to prevent an unintentional violation of Federal law. As this
Department of the Army general permit does not relieve you of the
responsibility to obtain any other required approvals, you should contact
appropriate State and local agencies before beginning work.

Dear Mr. Dorney:
:0,4
o ?
Several weeks ago we discussed that the Corps of Engineering was is in the process of issuing
Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line Corporation (Transco) a Nationwide Permit No. 12 with a
condition that we may operate within a 65' width construction corridor, for our proposed 17.77
Mile 16" Maiden Lateral Line in Lincoln and Cawtaba Counties, North Carolina. As a result of
that conversation, you requested that I provide a narrative explaining why we needed the 65'
versus the 40' Water Quality Condition. The purpose of this package is to serve as such and to
provide notice of Transco's intention to request concurrence by the Water Quality Planning
Division to also operate within a 65' width construction corridor and ask that you issue a General
or Individual Water Quality Certification for this project..
Therefore for your review in issuing this permit the following items are attached:
1) Permit Application
2) Supplemental "A" (Construction Corridor width Justification Narrative and
Drawings)
3) Supplemental "B" (Vicinity Maps)
4) Supplemental "C" (Wetlands and Waterbodies Crossing Tables)
4) Supplemental "D" (Wetland and Waterbody Typical Drawings and Detailed
Drawings)
Transco is planning on beginning construction on July 7, 1997 to insure an in-service date for
this years heating season. Any assistance in meeting this construction schedule would be greatly
appreciated.
If you need any additional information or have any questions, please contact me at the above
address. You can also reach me at 713-215-3457 or Richard Mogensen at 713-215-2192.

SUPPLEMENTAL "A"
16" MAIDEN LATERAL LINE-PROJECT dESCRIPTION AND
CONSTRUCTION CORRIDOR WIDTH JUSTIFICATION
The proposed construction of the 16" Maiden Lateral Line "B" is scheduled to take place during the
summer of 1997. This will consist of the installation of approximately 17.77 miles of 16" diameter,
.250" wall thickness line pipe parallel to the existing 10.750" diameter Maiden Lateral Line "A".
The typical construction corridor has been identified as being 65' in width (for specific details refer
to attached drawings). This width is the minimum width in which a 16" pipeline can safely and
effectively be installed. Attempting to reduce this width may result in increased risk associated with
the construction. The existing 10" pipeline will remain in service during the installation, therefore,
for safety reasons, the majority of the work activities need to be carried out on the 40' side away
from the existing pipeline called the "working side" of the construction corridor. The spoil removed
from the trench in which the new pipeline will be installed, will need to be placed on the 25' side of
the construction corridor, called the "spoil side".
In wetland areas, Transco requires a minimum of 3' of final cover over the pipeline. One to three
inches of concrete will be applied to the pipe before placement in wetland areas, increasing the
diameter of the pipe to 18" to 22". To ensure proper final cover, a pipeline contractor will usually
excavate the trench line about one half a foot deeper than actually needed for proper cover. With
cover requirements and pipeline diameter, the typical trench depth will be about 5' to 51/2' in depth.
The width of the trench at the bottom of the ditch will be about 4. The top of the trench may be as
wide as 14' to 20' depending on the instability of wetland soils and the subsquent trench slope
requirements. The width of the trench reduces the remaining construction space available on both
the spoil and working sides of the construction corridor. Timber mats must be installed in wetland
areas for construction equipment to work off of. These mats are usually about 25' in width as placed
in wetlands. The mats will be placed a safe distance off the edge of the trench line, usually 2 to 3
feet. Attempting to crowd the edge of the ditch with equipment and timber mats may increase the
chances of bank collapse. This is not only a safety issue, but it could actually increase the width
of the disturbance area due to the necessary remedial actions. The topsoil in the trench line in
wetland areas must be segregated unless saturated soils or standing water are present during
construction. Segregated topsoil must be separated from the other soil and from the trench line.
This increases the space needed for spoil storage. With the ditch line in wetlands being potentially
wider than in upland areas, spoil storage space is decreased which makes it extremely difficult
contain excavated soils.
In streams, a similar situation occurs, except the cover requirements increase to 5' and the trench
width at the top of the banks to the streams increases. Streams may have banks as high as 6' to 8'
or higher. With the increased cover requirements and the added height of the banks, the top of the
trench may be increased to widths of 20' to 30'. On the working side of the construction corridor,
an equipment crossing will need to be installed across the stream. Flume pipes will be installed in
the stream from a point outside of the equipment crossing, across the proposed trench line, to a point
safely outside of the bank of the trench line. During the actual excavation, sand bags will be placed
to form a wing wall against the flume pipes to force the flow of the water into the flume pipes and
exit downstream of the trench line, allowing a "dry" trench to be maintained until the pipe can be
installed. For installation of the flume pipes, the equipment crossing, the digging of the trench line
to ensure proper final cover, and to ensure the safe installation of the new pipeline, the minium work
corridor at 65' is required. In some cases, at smaller streams and wetland areas, the construction
corridor can be reduces based on site conditions. In these cases, the construction corridor will be th
absolute minimum necessary to safely install the pipe..
