Dear Mr. Chapin:
RECEIVED

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES
?? . k-. 4
The Department of Transportation is scheduled to grade, drain, base, and pave part of
SR 1351 Castle Ford Road in Watauga County when the necessary permits are obtained.
This project will require replacing a pipe carrying a small stream. The stream is an
unnamed tributary to Grassy Creek. Grassy Creek has the DEM classification, C. Due to
the proposed work, we are requesting a 404 Nationwide Permit.
I am sending a joint application form, typical roadway section, straight line sketch with
the proposed erosion control, notes on pipe installation, and a marked county map.
By copy of this letter, I am requesting Ms. Stephanie Goudreau, Mt. Region Biologist
Coordinator to comment directly to you concerning the 404 Nationwide Permit request.
Also, by copy of this letter, I am requesting a 401 Certification from the Division of
Environmental Management for this project.
We would like to begin construction when the necessary permits are obtained. If
additional information is required, please let me know. Your early review and
consideration will be greatly appreciated.
Yours truly,

Martin L. Bolick
District Engineer

PIPE INSTALLATION
i. Install erosion concrui dcvicas. In srreacns, w.iera
necessary, rock silt screens will be used and installed
prior to pipe replacement or any work being done to
channel.
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.
7. Remove rock silt screens as soon as possible after
vegetation is established. Prior to r.Amoval of rock silt
screens any accumulated silt must be removed.
GENERAL NOTES ON EROSION CONTROT,
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.
Where slope protection treatment is required, Section 868 and
Section 1042 of the 1990 Standard Specifications for Roads
and Structures will be followed. Any material obtained from
the project must be clean before being placed.
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 Temporary Silt Ditches shall be
installed after clearing and before grading.
Temporary Stone Ditch Checks shall be installed as
soon as ditchline is established.
Pipe Outlet and Inlet Protection will be done as
soon as the pipe is installed.
Seeding and other permanent erosion control
measures are to be implemented as soon as
practical.
