August 6, 1996
Caldwell County
DWQ Project # 960708
You have our approval to excavate 0.03 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of replacing pipe
culverts at SR 1741 in Caldwell County, as you described in your application dated 18 July 1996. After
reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification
Number 3026. This certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 3 when it is issued by the
Corps of Engineers.
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. For this
approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification. In addition, you
should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory
hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a
written petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of
Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and its
conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean
Water Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-1786.
'ncerely,

Asheville, North Carolina 28801-5006
Dear Mr. Chapin,
The N. C. Department of Transportation is proposing to grade,
drain, base, and pave SR 1741, Charlie Little Road, in
Caldwell County. As part of this project we are proposing to
replace several pipes carrying streams, line a bank with rip
rap to prevent further erosion toward the road, and relocate
a ditch carrying a possible wet weather spring. The streams
involved are unnamed tributaries to Upper Little River and
are classified by DEM as WS-IV. Therefore, we are requesting
a 404 Nationwide Permit for this project.
I am sending a joint application form, a straight line sketch
with the proposed erosion control, roadway typical section,
notes on pipe installation, and a marked county map.
By copy of this letter, I am requesting Ms. Stephanie
Goudreau, Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to
you concerning the 404 Nationwide Permit request.
Also, by copy of this letter, I am requesting authorization
to proceed under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act from the
Division of Environmental Management.
We would like to replace this pipe as soon as possible. If
any further information is required, please advise. Your
early review and consideration will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Martin Bolick
District Engineer, NCDOT

PIPE INSTALLATION NOTES_
1.) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where
necessary, rock silt screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much
as possible, material and sediment from entering a stream
.and/or escaping from project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit,
as much as possible, material and sediment from entering
a stream and/or escaping from project. Where possible,
new grade will be below existing stream bed. If needed,
bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
5) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of
pipe. Also complete installation of erosion control
measures and perform maintenance as needed on existing
measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.

GENERAL NOTES OW EROSION CONTROL
i
I
Silt Basin Type B's will be constructed to the dimension of
six feet by three feet by three feet unless otherwise noted
on the plans.
Generally; the order of installation of the erosion control
measures will be as follows:
Temporary Silt Basins shall be installed before
clearing and grubbing begins
Silt Fences and Temporar Silt Ditches shall be
installed as soon as ditchline is established..
Temporary Stone Ditch. Checks shall be installed as
soon as ditchline is established.
Pipe Outlet and Inlet Protection will be done as soon
as pipe is installed.
Seeding and Other Permanent-Erosion Control Measures
are'to be.implemented as soon-as practical.
Temporary Rock Silt Checks (Type B).will be spaced as
required by,percent'of grade as described on page VI-16 in
the Erosion and-Sedimentation Control Guidelines
No. 5.Stone, or equi•Valent,- will be used in conjunction with
Temporary`Rock Silt check Type-B in=location where water is
leaving the projector entering pipe,
