This project involves the filling of wetlands of the subject streams in
order to allow the relocation and widening of Hwy. 401 south of Fayetteville
to the Hoke County line. According to the notice, compensation for the loss
of wetland will be made by debiting the North Carolina Department of
Transportation (NCDOT) Company Swamp Mitigation Bank.
This construction will involve the placement of a total of + 43,050 cubic
yards of wetland fill, of which approximately 680 will be placed below the
ordinary high water level of the affected streams. This is broken down as
follows:
Fill Below Total
O. H. W. Fill
Little Rockfish Creek 25 c.y. 7,700 c.y.
Bones Creek 355 c.y. 22,500 c.y.
Hogg Branch 300 c.y. 12,800 c.y.
Standard NCDOT Highway Construction Erosion/Sedimentation Control
measures will be used to control in-stream sedimentation.
It is the recommendation of this office that the appropriate certifica-
tion be issued requiring that the following "standard" condition be met:
1. The in-stream turbidity shall not be increased to more than
50 JTU's as a result of the proposed activity after a
reasonable opportunity for dilution and mixture.

forth.
Condition(s) of Certification:
1. That the activity be conducted in such a manner as
to prevent significant increase in turbidity
outside the area of construction or construction
related discharge (increases such that the
turbidity in the Stream is 50 NTU's or less are not
considered significant).
2. That the wetland losses from the project will be
offset by debitting the Company Swamp Mitigation

Enclosed is the application of the North Carolina Department of
Transportation, Division of Highways, for Department of the Army authorization
and a State Water Quality Certification to place fill material in the waters
and wetlands of Little Rockfish Creek, Bones Creek and Hogg Branch associated
with widening and relocation of U.S. Highway 401 between S.R. 1317 and S.R.
1409, Cumberland County, North Carolina. Your receipt of this letter verifies
your acceptance of a valid request for certification in accordance with
Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations.
We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant to Section
404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that a water quality
certification may be required under the provisions of Section 401 of the same
law. A Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the
certification has been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days after receipt
of a request for certification is a reasonable time for State action.
Therefore, if you have not acted on the request by January 14, 1991, the
District Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Jeffrey Richter, telephone

Dear Sir:
WILLIAM G. MARLEY, JR., P.E.
STATE HIGHWAY ADMINISTRATOR
SUBJECT; Cumberland/Hoke Counties, R-214B, US 401 widening
and relocation from SR 1317 to SR 1409.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation intends to
widen and relocate sections of US 401 from SR 1317 in Hoke
County to SR 1409 in Cumberland County.
Three separate sites of wetland impact will result from
construction activities associated with this project. It is
anticipated that a Individual Permit will be required for the
above mentioned construction activities. Application is
h_reby made for a Department of Army permit as required by
such activity. In accordance with the Memo of Agreement
(HOA), avoidance- of wetland impact was a top priority in the
design of this project. A "do nothing" approach, a delay or
postponement of the project, a public transportation
alternative, and a reduction of the scope of the project were
all -xantined and determined to be non-viable. It was
determined that widening of the existing stretch of US 401
w,:I.Lld adversely impact the. Wildlife Resources Commission fish
hatcher:, Lake Rim, Cumberland County Park and Shaw-Gillis
House; as well as potentially displacing residences and
businesses. To minimize impacts on wetland areas, a revised
_l:igtiment of the new construction location was chosen, and
t!-.is alignment will impact less wetland acreage than will the
An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative Action Employer
design originally set fr)rth 2.n the Supplement to
Environmental Assessment. W? propose that mitigation be
accomplished by debiting the 1ICDOT Company Swamp Mitigation
Bank.
Attached is a permit application and drawings depicting
proposed work. By copy of this letter, we are also
requesting that Section 401 Water Quality Certification be
issued by the N.C. Department of Natural Resources and
Community Development.

DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY

Post Office Box 1890
Wilmington, North Carolina 28402-1890
CESAW-C091-N-026-0087 November 15, 1990
PUBLIC NOTICE
THE NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION, DIVISION OF HIGHWAYS,
Post Office Box 25201, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-5201, has applied for a
Department of the Army (DA) permit TO PLACE FILL MATERIAL IN THE WATERS AND
WETLANDS OF LITTLE ROCKFISH CREEK, BONES CREEK AND HOGG BRANCH ASSOCIATED WITH
WIDENING AND RELOCATION OF U.S. HIGHWAY 401 BETWEEN S.R. 1317 AND S.R. 1409,
Cumberland County, North Carolina.
The following description of the work is taken from data provided by the
applicant and from observations made during an onsite visit by a
representative of the Corps of Engineers. Plans submitted with the
application show that the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT)
proposes to widen and relocate U.S. Highway 401 from S.R. 1317 in Hoke County
to S.R. 1409 in Cumberland County. Three separate wetlands sites are planned
to be crossed. At Little Rockfish Creek approximately 25 cubic yards of fill
material are to be placed in 0.31 acre; at Bones Creek approximately 355 cubic
yards of fill material is to be placed in 1.11 acres of weltands; and at Hogg
Branch approximately 300 cubic yards of fill material is to be placed in 0.91
acre of wetlands. The relocated alignment minimizes impacts to wetlands that
would have occurred if improvements had been made along the existing
alignment. The applicant proposes to compensate for the loss of the 2.33
acres of wetlands by debiting the NCDOT Company Swamp Mitigation Bank. The
purpose of the work is to improve the public highway system. Plans showing
the work are included with this public notice.
The State of North Carolina will review this public notice to determine
the need for the applicant to obtain any required State authorization. No
DA permit will be issued until the coordinated State viewpoint on the proposal
has been received and reviewed by this agency, nor will a DA permit be issued
until the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (DEM) has
determined the applicability of a Water Quality Certificate as required by PL
92-500.
This application is being considered pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean-
Water Act (33 U.S.C,. 1344). Any person may request, in writing within the
comment period specified in the notice, that a public hearing be held to
consider this application. Requests for public hearing shall state, with
particularity, the reasons for holding a public hearing.
The District Engineer has consulted the latest published version of the
National Register of Historic Places for the presence or absence of registered
properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein, and
this worksite is not registered property or property listed as being eligible
for inclusion in the Register. Consultation of the National Register

-2-
constitutes the extent of cultural resource investigations by the District
Engineer, and he is otherwise unaware of the presence of such resources.
Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistorical, or historical
data may be lost or destroyed by work under the requested permit.
The District Engineer, based on available information, is not aware that
the proposed activity will affect species, or their critical habitat,
designated as endangered or threatened pursuant to the Endangered Species Act
of 1973.
The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of
the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity
and its intended use on the public interest. Evaluation of the probable
impacts which the proposed activity may have on the public interest requires a
careful weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each particular
case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. The.
decision whether to authorize a proposal, and if so the conditions under which
it will be allowed to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome of the
general balancing process. That decision should reflect the national concern
for both protection and utilization of important resources. All factors which
may be relevant to the proposal must be considered including the cumulative
effects thereof. Among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general
environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values,
flood hazards and flood plain values (in accordance with Executive Order
11988), land use, navigation, shore erosion and accretion, recreation, water
supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber
production, mineral needs, considerations of property ownership, and, in
general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving the
placement of dredged or fill materials in waters of the United States, a
permit will be denied if the discharge that would be authorized by such permit
would not comply with the Environmental Protection Agencies' 404(b)(1)
guidelines. Subject to the preceding sentence and any other applicable
guidelines or criteria, a permit will be granted unless the District Engineer
determines that it would be contrary to the public interest.
The Corps of Engineers is soliciting comments from the public; Federal,
State and local agencies and officials; Indian Tribes and other interested
parties.in order to consider and evaluate the impacts of this proposed
activity. Any comments received will be considered by the Corps of Engineers
to determine whether to issue, modify, condition or deny a permit for this
proposal. To make this decision, comments are used to assess impacts on
endangered species, historic properties, water quality, general environmental
effects and the other public interest factors listed above. Comments are used
in the preparation of an Environmental Assessment and/or an Environmental
Impact Statement pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act. Comments
are also used to determine the need for a public hearing and to determine the
overall public interest of the proposed activity.
-3-
Generally, the decision whether to issue this DA permit will not be made
until the DEM issues, denies, or waives State certification required by
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The DEM considers whether or not the
proposed activity will comply with Sections 301, 302, 306, and 307 of the
Clean Water Act. The application and this public notice for the DA permit
serves as application to the DEM for certification.
Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be
reviewed at the offices of the Environmental Operations Section, North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Salisbury Street, Archdale
Building, Raleigh, North Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished
to any person requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs.
The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management plans to take
final action in the issuance of the Clean Water Act certification on or after
December 7, 1990.
All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for Clean
Water Act certification should do so in writing delivered to the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Post Office Box 27687, Raleigh,
North Carolina 27611-7687, on or before December 3, 1990, Attention:
Mr. William Mills.
Written comments pertinent to the proposed work, as outlined above, will
be received in this office, Attention: Mr.' Jeffrey Richter, until 4:15 p.m.,
December 17, 1990, or telephone [phone].
