APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Mr. Stephen A. Moore
Route 1, Box 169C
Marion, NC 28752
Dear Mr. Moore:
r4i?EHNR
August 20, 1997
McDowell County
WQC 401 Project #970702
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in 0.01 acres of
wetlands or waters for the purpose of paving SR 1414 at Marion, as you described in your application dated 4
August 1997. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water
Quality Certification Number 3103. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 14
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 Section401 of the Clean Water
Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-1786.

1996-1997 Residential Paving Project
Dear Mr. Chapin:

k yrg X9.9
I am attaching a straight line diagram with erosion control plan, an application
form fora nationwide permit, and a county map section relative to the paving of SR
1414, Maple Creek Road in McDowell County.
Maple Creek Road is presently 14-16 feet wide. We plan to pave the road 18
feet wide and increase the typical section. The typical section is also attached.
Grading will be light to moderate. The project begins at SR 1413 and continues in
a westerly direction for a distance of 0.63 miles.
We propose to replace/extend two (2) pipes in unnamed tributaries to Maple
Creek at survey stations 7+10 and 14+70.
By copy of this letter, we request Mr. Mark Davis, North Carolina Wildlife
Commission Western Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to you
concerning the nationwide permit request. A request to work within the twenty-five
foot buffer zone will be made to the Department of Environment, Health and
Natural Resources at a later date.
