Dear Mr. Atkins:

May 28, 1997
Alleghany County
WQC 401 Project #970432
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in 0.04 acres of
wetlands or waters for the purpose of conducting maintenance activities at SR 1303, as you described in your
application dated 13 May 1997. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by
General Water Quality Certification Number 3127. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit
Number 3 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.
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.
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.

Re: Grade, Drain, Base, and Pave SR1303 (Peden Road) from SR1302
to SR1304 in Alleghany County, N. C.
Dear Mr. Jolly:
The North Carolina Department of Transportation, District I Maintenance plans
to grade this road primarily along the existing alignment in the 1997 - 1998
Fiscal Year. We will be replacing/extending existing pipes which involve live
streams at Station 18+00, 36+30, 50+00, 60+90, and 63+05. We will also be
extending or replacing various other pipe culverts throughout the project which
do not involve live streams. We will be encroaching upon the 25 trout stream
buffer as follows: 1) Lt of Station 17+00 to 17+85+-. 2) Rt of Station 17+85 to
22+50+-. 3) Rt of Station 46+00 to 47+00. and 4) Lt of Station 53+00 to
54+50. We will place gabion baskets filled with Class B Stone in this area
where necessary to lessen the impact to the stream and to avoid a channel
change. Also, we will narrow the shoulder as necessary to avoid working in the
stream.
We are requesting a 404 Nationwide Permit (#3 Maintenance) from your agency.
I am sending a straight line sketch with the proposed erosion control, stream,
and cross sections of the affected areas. In addition, I am sending a typical
section of the road, general notes on erosion control and a marked map.

Trout Water Buffer Zone of tributaries to an unnamed DEHNR Trout..Stream
and I am asking Ms. Goudreau to comment directly to, me concerning the. Trout
Water Buffer Zone Encroachment.
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 plan to begin construction in fall of `97. If further information is
required, please let me know. Your early review and consideration of this
request will be greatly appreciated.

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 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.
RS
Always SUPER toward ditch line as a
temporary measure in this situation!
