Dear Mr. Simon:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in 50 feet of
streams for the purpose of replacing Bridge No, 062 on SR1103, as you described in your application
dated February 9, 2001. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by
General Water Quality Certification Number 3289. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit
Number 14 when the Corps of Engineers issues it. 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 send us 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 conditions. 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. This approval shall expire when
the corresponding Nationwide Permit expires or as otherwise provided in the General 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.

Dear Mr. Lund:
The North Carolina Department of Transportation, Division of Highways, proposes the following
project for your issuance of a Section 404 Permit. We believe this project can be accomplished
under NWP #14, Linear Transportation Crossings.
COUNTY: Catawba
LOCATION: Bridge #062, SR 1103
STREAM: Unnamed tributary to Jacob Fork River
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Replace existing 50' long x 24' wide timber bridge with a single
line 142" x 91" CMPA, 50 ` long. Class "WS-III" waters are involved. No wetlands or High
Quality Waters are involved. Less than 1/4 acre will be affected. The installment of the CMP will
impact 50 linear feet of the stream.
I have conducted a survey for the threatened species listed for Catawba County- the dwarf-
flowered heartleaf (Hexastylis nanifora)- in the project area on February 6, 2001. None were
observed. It was determined that no heartleaf species or suitable habitat was located in the
proposed project area. No significant effect on this species is anticipated.
By copy of this letter, we are asking Edward L. Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer to
comment on the above project. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting a concurrence letter
from the Wildlife Resources Commission, US Fish & Wildlife Service, and State Historic
Preservation Office.
PAYMENT
RECEIVED
By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of the application package to John Dorney,
NCDENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetland Unit for review. A $200.00 check is enclosed
for application processing.
A site location map and a sketch of planned activities are attached. An erosion and sedimentation
control program will be implemented during the project construction, and every effort will be made
to complete the work in a timely manner.
Your earliest consideration for this request would be greatly appreciated. Our personnel are
available to assist with your evaluation of this project, if necessary. Should you have any questions,
please call me at 704-480-5400.
Sincerely,
Trish Simon
