APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Mr. Don Conner, P.E.
Highway Division 1
P.O. Box 850
Edenton, NC 27932
Dear Mr. Conner:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
material in 0.022 acres of wetlands and 24 linear feet of streams for the purpose of improving SR 1351 in
Bertie County. The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated September 28,
2000 (received October 2, 2000). After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered
by General Water Quality Certification Number 3289. This certification corresponds to the Nationwide
Permit Number 14 issued by the Corps of Engineers. In addition, you should acquire any other federal, state
or local permits before you proceed with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion
Control, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. This approval will expire with the
accompanying 404 permit, unless otherwise specified in the Water Quality Certification.
This approval is valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified
below). Should your project change, you must notify the DWQ and submit a new application. If the
property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter, and is thereby
responsible for complying with all the conditions. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future)
exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or in the future) exceed 150 linear feet; compensatory
mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H.0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to
remain valid, you must adhere to the conditions listed in the attached certification.
1.) Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of
Completion Form" to notify DWQ when all work included in the 401 Certification has been completed.
The responsible party shall complete the attached form and return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the
Division of Water Quality upon completion of the 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 that 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.

The State of North Carolina certifies that the specified category of activity will not violate applicable
portions of Sections 301, 302, 303, 306 and 307 of the Public Laws 92-500 and 95-217 if conducted in
accordance with the conditions hereinafter set forth.
Conditions of Certification:
1. Proposed fill or substantial modification of wetlands or waters (including streams) under this General
Certification requires application to and prior written concurrence from the Division of Water Quality;
2. In accordance with North Carolina General Statute Section 143-215.3D(e), any application for a 401
Water Quality Certification must include the appropriate fee. If a project also requires a CAMA Permit,
one payment to both agencies shall be submitted and will be the higher of the two fees;
3. In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H.0506 (h) compensatory mitigation may be required for impacts to
streams and/or wetlands. In addition, buffer mitigation may be required for any project with Buffer
Rules in effect at the time of application. A determination of buffer, wetland and stream mitigation
requirements shall be made for any Certification for this Nationwide Permit. The most current design
and monitoring protocols from DWQ shall be followed and written plans submitted for DWQ approval
as required in those protocols;
4. For any project involving a stream re-alignment, a stream relocation plan must be included with the 401
application for written DWQ approval. Relocated stream designs should include the same dimensions,
patterns and profiles as the existing channel, to the maximum extent practical. The new channel should
be constructed in the dry and water shall not be turned into the new channel until the banks are
stabilized. Vegetation used for bank stabilization shall be limited to native woody species, and should
include establishment of a 30 foot wide wooded and an adjacent 20 foot wide vegetated buffer on both
sides of the relocated channel to the maximum extent practical. A transitional phase incorporating coir

shall be limited to "uses" identified within and constructed in accordance with 15A NCAC 2B .0233,
15A NCAC 2B .0259 and .0250. All new development shall be located, designed, constructed, and
maintained to have minimal disturbance to protect water quality to the maximum extent practicable
through the use of best management practices. Activities listed as "exempt" from these rules do not need
to apply for written concurrence under this Certification;
6. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands must be placed below the
elevation of the streambed to allow low flow passage of water and aquatic life unless it can be shown to
DWQ that providing passage would be impractical. Design and placement of culverts and other
structures including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may
result in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or stream beds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream
of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium shall be
maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. Additionally, when roadways, causeways or other fill
projects are constructed across FEMA-designated floodways or wetlands, openings such as culverts or
bridges must be provided to maintain the natural hydrology of the system as well as prevent constriction
of the floodway that may result in destabilization of streams or wetlands;
7. If this Certification is used to access building sites, all lots owned by the applicant must be buildable
without additional fill beyond that allowed under other General Certifications. Deed restrictions must be
placed on the remaining wetlands and streams on these lots to restrict future wetland and stream fill.

SUBJECT: Request for Section 404 Authorization for Anticipated Impacts to Waters
and Wetlands Resulting from Improvements to SR 1351 in Bertie County
The Department of Transportation plans to improve SR 1351 in Bertie County
from a soil road to a wider paved surface and pipe replacement to improve safety. The
pipe connecting an intermittent stream that drains into Flat Swamp Creek will need to be
extended from 24 feet to 48 feet. Upgrading this road will include two 9 to 10 foot travel
lanes, 4-8 foot shoulders and no ditches. The work will be contained within a limited
right of way, up to 50 feet wide. The planned work is necessary to bring the existing
facilities up to current design standards.
To accomplish the proposed improvements, a small amount of wetlands (0.022
acres) will be filled during the upgrade of the roadway. Since wetland continuums occur
along the boundaries of sections of the project, essentially up to the existing toe of fills, it
is not possible to avoid impacting these wetlands. The anticipated impacts to wetlands
will be minimized by utilizing 2:1 fill slopes in these areas, a 50 rather than 60-foot right-
of-way, and no ditches.
You will find included with the prior construction notification:
• A map indicating the location of the work:
• Plans of the proposed work on 8.5 x 11 inch paper:
• Brief description of the affected wetlands:
The wetland impacts associated with paving SR 1351 in Bertie County (0.022
acres) are narrow strips of a mixed-deciduous bottomland forest (PF01106)
associated with Flat Swamp Creek. Forest is comprised of bald cypress,
blackgum, tupelo, red maple, sweet gum.

14. STATE REASONS WHY IT IS BELIEVED THAT THIS ACTIVITY MUST BE CARRIED
OUT IN WETLANDS. (INCLUDE ANY MEASURES TAKEN TO MINIMIZE WETLAND
IMPACTS): Wetland delineation line is right to toe of the road,
since road narrows at the wetland, wetland is unavoidable in
widening project. We have minimized by using a 50 foot right of
way vs. the usual 60 foot right of way. Pipe must be extended due
to existing pipe angle.

SUBJECT: Request for Section 404 Authorization for Anticipated Impacts to Waters
and Wetlands Resulting from Improvements to SR 1351 in Bertie County
The Department of Transportation plans to improve SR 1351 in Bertie County Mme. ,
from a soil road to a wider paved surface and pipe replacement to improve safety. The C-
pipe connecting an intermittent stream that drains into Flat Swamp Creek will need to be m z
extended from 24 feet to 48 feet. Upgrading this road will include two 9 to 10 foot travel p --?
lanes, 4-8 foot shoulders and no ditches. The work will be contained within a limited
right of way, up to 50 feet wide. The planned work is necessary to bring the existing
facilities up to current design standards.
To accomplish the proposed improvements, a small amount of wetlands (0.022
acres) will be filled during the upgrade of the roadway. Since wetland continuums occur
along the boundaries of sections of the project, essentially up to the existing toe of fills, it
is not possible to avoid impacting these wetlands. The anticipated impacts to wetlands
will be minimized by utilizing 2:1 fill slopes in these areas, a 50 rather than 60-foot right-
of-way, and no ditches.
You will find included with the prior construction notification:
• A map indicating the location of the work:
• Plans of the proposed work on 8.5 x 11 inch paper:
• Brief description of the affected wetlands:
The wetland impacts associated with paving SR 1351 in Bertie County (0.022
acres) are narrow strips of a mixed-deciduous bottomland forest (PF01106)
associated with Flat Swamp Creek. Forest is comprised of bald cypress,
blackgum, tupelo, red maple, sweet gum.
• Names and addresses of adjoining property owners
P.O. Box 850, Edenton, NC 27932 - Phone: [phone] Fax: [phone]
The NC DOT requests that this work be authorized under the provisions of
Nationwide Permit No. 14. By copy of this letter, the NC DOT also requests that the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality issue the appropriate water quality
certification. A check for $200.00 is attached to cover the permit fees.
Please call me if you require additional information.

14. STATE REASONS WHY IT IS BELIEVED THAT THIS ACTIVITY MUST BE CARRIED
OUT IN WETLANDS. (INCLUDE ANY MEASURES TAKEN TO MINIMIZE WETLAND
IMPACTS): Wetland delineation line is right to toe of the road,
since road narrows at the wetland, wetland is unavoidable in
widening project. We have minimized by using a 50 foot right of
way vs. the usual 60 foot right of way. Pipe must be extended due
to existing pipe angle.
