Mr. William D. Gilmore, P.E., Manager
Planning and Environmental Branch
North Carolina Department of Transportation
1548 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina, 27699-1548
Dear Mr. Gilmore:
You have our approval, as described in your application dated February 12, 2001, your addendum submittal
dated March 14, 2001, and in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
material in 23 linear feet of streams for the purpose of improving SR 1248 (Joe Ward Road) in Franklin
County. The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated January 21, 2001.
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. This approval is also valid for the Tar-Pamlico River buffer rules (15A NCAC 2B
.0259). 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 when the accompanying 404 permit expires unless
otherwise specified in the General 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 211.0506 (h) (6) and (7). ). This approval shall
expire with the corresponding Nationwide-Per flit expires or as otherwise provided in -the General

Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR
1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon Road) in Franklin County.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon
Road) (Figure 1) in Franklin County. SR 1248A is an unpaved roadway that will be
upgraded to a paved roadway. Total project length is 1.34 miles.
Transportation and highway laws of North Carolina (G. S. 136-44.6,136-44.7,
136-44.7A, 136-44.8, and 136-44.9) require the NCDOT to develop annual work
programs for construction and maintenance of secondary roads. These general statutes
specifically set forth requirements for annual construction and paving of existing unpaved
roads. Paving of these roads is performed in priority order as established by the NCDOT
for each unpaved road within a given county. This number is based on characteristics of
each road, including number of homes, schools, churches, businesses, industries,
recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of school bus routes, and value as a
thoroughfare. Joe Ward Road Road is scheduled to be paved in the 2000-2001
Secondary Roads Construction Program.
Impacts to Waters of the United States
Construction of the project will necessitate impacts to waters of the United States
(Figure 2) in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. The project crosses an unnamed perennial
tributary to Tooles Creek (DWQ Index No. 28-21-3) at Station 21+90. The existing
structure is a 48 inch corrugated metal pipe that is 37 feet long. The proposed
replacement structure is a 72 inch corrugated aluminum pipe that is 60 feet long.

... .
Impacts to the stream from construction include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23
linear feet existing channel impacted.
Waters of the U.S. Mitigation
Avoidance: All wetlands or surface waters not affected by the project will be
protected from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or
storage of construction supplies will be allowed in or near wetlands or surface waters.
Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at
jurisdictional sites. Strict Enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best
Management Practices for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced
during project construction. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces
and the Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts to waters of the
U.S. at these sites.
Compensatory Mitigation: Construction of the project will result in only minimal
impacts to waters of the U.S. Impacts have been minimized to the maximum extent
possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts, compensatory mitigation for
impacts to waters of the U.S. will not be provided for this project.
Riparian Buffer Impacts
The construction of the project involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject
to the Tar-Pamlico Riparian Buffer Rule. Construction impacts at the jurisdictional
crossing are less than 40 linear feet of riparian buffer. Based on the impacts to the
riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Rule.
Dewatering
The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the stream during the construction
of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of sandbags or Class B or
Class 2 rip rap covered with filter fabric in the stream channel approximately 10 feet
upstream of the proposed pipe inlet (Figure 2). To maintain water flow during
construction, water upstream of this impervious structure will be temporarily pumped out
and conveyed downstream of the construction activity where it will be allowed to filter
through vegetation before flowing into the stream. The stream will be dewatered less
than a day. This will result in temporary impacts to these surface waters.
Temporary impacts to the stream from this activity will result in the dewatering of <0.01
ac of stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. The sandbags or rip rap covered with
filter fabric will be removed after construction.
Permit Issues
The construction of the project is authorized under a Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 14, linear transportation crossings. Notification for the use of this NWP to
the USACE is not required for this project, as the discharge associated with the project is
less than 0.10 acre and there are no impacts to special aquatic sites (including wetlands).
Accordingly, notification to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) for
Section 401 Water Quality Certificate (WQC) No. 3289 is not required for this project.
NCDOT will comply with all conditions associated with this NWP and WQC.
The purpose of this letter is to request authorization under a Section 404 NWP 33
to dewater the stream during project construction. The 401 WQC No. 3114 (which
corresponds to NWP 33) does not require written concurrence from the NCDWQ as
NCDOT intends to comply with conditions. for the WQC.
Summary
NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 1248A in Franklin County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Impacts associated with the pipe
replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. Based
on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Riparian
Buffer Rule. The NCDOT asks that the dewatering of the stream be authorized under a
Section 404 NWP 33. The NCDOT will adhere to all applicable Section 404 NWPs and
Section 401 WQCs conditions. If you have any questions or need additional information,
please contact me at (919) 560-6081.

Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR
1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon Road) in Franklin County.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon
Road) (Figure 1) in Franklin County. SR 1248A is an unpaved roadway that will be
upgraded to a paved roadway. Total project length is 1.34 miles.
Transportation and highway laws of North Carolina (G. S. 136-44.6, 136-44.7,
136-44.7A, 136-44.8, and 136-44.9) require the NCDOT to develop annual work
programs for construction and maintenance of secondary roads. These general statutes
specifically set forth requirements for annual construction and paving of existing unpaved
roads. Paving of these roads is performed in priority order as established by the NCDOT
for each unpaved road within a given county. This number is based on characteristics of
each road, including number of homes, schools, churches, businesses, industries,
recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of school bus routes, and value as a
thoroughfare. Joe Ward Road Road is scheduled to be paved in the 2000-2001
Secondary Roads Construction Program.
Impacts to Waters of the United States
Construction of the project will necessitate impacts to waters of the United States
(Figure 2) in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. The project crosses an unnamed perennial
tributary to Tooles Creek (DWQ Index No. 28-21-3) at Station 21+90. The existing
structure is a 48 inch corrugated metal pipe that is 37 feet long. The proposed
replacement structure is a 72 inch corrugated aluminum pipe that is 60 feet long.

k
Impacts to the stream from construction include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23
linear feet existing channel impacted.
Waters of the U.S. Mitigation
Avoidance: All wetlands or surface waters not affected by the project will be
protected from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or
storage of construction supplies will be allowed in or near wetlands or surface waters.
Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at
jurisdictional sites. Strict Enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best
Management Practices for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced
during project construction. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces
and the Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts to waters of the
U.S. at these sites.
Compensatory Mitigation: Construction of the project will result in only minimal
impacts to waters of the U.S. Impacts have been minimized to the maximum extent
possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts, compensatory mitigation for
impacts to waters of the U.S. will not be provided for this project.
Riparian Buffer Impacts
The construction of the project involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject
to the Tar-Pamlico Riparian Buffer Rule. Construction impacts at the jurisdictional
crossing are less than 40 linear feet of riparian buffer. Based on the impacts to the
riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Rule.
Dewatering
The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the stream during the construction
of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of sandbags or Class B or
Class .2 rip rap covered with filter fabric in the stream channel approximately 10 feet
upstream of the proposed pipe inlet (Figure 2). To maintain water flow during
construction, water upstream of this impervious structure will be temporarily pumped out
and conveyed downstream of the construction activity where it will be allowed to filter
through vegetation before flowing into the stream. The stream will be dewatered less
than a day. This will result in temporary impacts to these surface waters.
Temporary impacts to the stream from this activity will result in the dewatering of <0.01
ac of stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. The sandbags or rip rap covered with
filter fabric will be removed after construction.
Permit Issues
The construction of the project is authorized under a Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 14, linear transportation crossings. Notification for the use of this NWP to
the USACE is not required for this project, as the discharge associated with the project is
less than 0.10 acre and there are no impacts to special aquatic sites (including wetlands).
Accordingly, notification to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) for
Section 401 Water Quality Certificate (WQC) No. 3289 is not required for this project.
NCDOT will comply with all conditions associated with this NWP and WQC.
The purpose of this letter is to request authorization under a Section 404 NWP 33
to dewater the stream during project construction. The 401 WQC No. 3114 (which
corresponds to NWP 33) does not require written concurrence from the NCDWQ as
NCDOT intends to comply with conditions for the WQC.
Summary
NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 1248A in Franklin County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Impacts associated with the pipe
replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. Based
on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Riparian
Buffer Rule. The NCDOT asks that the dewatering of the stream be authorized under a
Section 404 NWP 33. The NCDOT will adhere to all applicable Section 404 NWPs and
Section 401 WQCs conditions. If you have any questions or need additional information,
please contact me at (919) 560-6081.

Reference: USACE Permit Application (February 12, 2001). p ---q
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon
Road) in Franklin County. A permit application outlining impacts associated with this
project was submitted to the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) on
February 12, 2001. This application was copied to the North Carolina Division of Water
Quality (NCDWQ).
The construction of the project is authorized under a Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 14, linear transportation crossings. Notification for the use of this NWP to
the USACE is not required for this project, as the discharge associated with the project is
less than 0.10 acre and there are no impacts to special aquatic sites (including wetlands).
The application stated that notification to the NCDWQ for Section 401 Water Quality
Certificate (WQC) No. 3289 (which corresponds with NWP 14) is not required for this
project. However, based on a conversation with NCDWQ Environmental Specialist John
Hennessy on March 9, 2001, it has been subsequently determined that application and
concurrence must be granted from the NCDWQ. The permit application also requested
authorization under a Section 404 NWP 33 to dewater the stream during project
construction. The 401 WQC No. 3114 (which corresponds to NWP 33) does not require
written concurrence from the NCDWQ as NCDOT intends to comply with general
conditions for this certification.

Impacts to the stream from construction include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23
linear feet existing channel impacted.
Waters of the U.S. Mitigation
Avoidance: All wetlands or surface waters not affected by the project will be
protected from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or
storage of construction supplies will be allowed in or near wetlands or surface waters.
Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at
jurisdictional sites. Strict Enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best

impacts to waters of the U.S. Impacts have been minimized to the maximum extent
possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts, compensatory mitigation for
impacts to waters of the U.S. will not be provided for this project.
Riparian Buffer Impacts
The construction of the project involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject
to the Tar=Pamlico Riparian Buffer Rule. Construction impacts at the jurisdictional
crossing are less than 40 linear feet of riparian buffer. Based on the impacts to the
riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Rule.
Dewatering
The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the stream during the construction
of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of sandbags or Class B or
Class 2 rip rap covered with filter fabric in the stream channel approximately 10 feet
upstream of the proposed pipe inlet (Figure 2). To maintain water flow during
construction, water upstream of this impervious structure will be temporarily pumped out
and conveyed downstream of the construction activity where it will be allowed to filter
through vegetation before flowing into the stream. The stream will be dewatered less
than a day. This will result in temporary impacts to these surface waters.
Temporary impacts to the stream from this activity will result in the dewatering of <0.01
ac of stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. The sandbags or rip rap covered with
filter fabric will be removed after construction.
Permit Issues
The construction of the project is authorized under a Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 14, linear transportation crossings. Notification for the use of this NWP to
3
the USACE is not required for this project, as the discharge associated with the project is
less than 0.10 acre and there are no impacts to special aquatic sites (including wetlands).
Accordingly, notification to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) for
Section 401 Water Quality Certificate (WQC) No. 3289 is not required for this project.
NCDOT will comply with all conditions associated with this NWP and WQC.
The purpose of this letter is to request authorization under a Section 404 NWP 33
to dewater the stream during project construction. The 401 WQC No. 3114 (which
corresponds to NWP 33) does not require written concurrence from the NCDWQ as
NCDOT intends to comply with conditions for the WQC.
Summary
NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 1248A in Franklin County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Impacts associated with the pipe
replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. Based
on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Riparian
Buffer Rule. The NCDOT asks that the dewatering of the stream be authorized under a
Section 404 NWP 33. The NCDOT will adhere to all applicable Section 404 NWPs and
Section 401 WQCs conditions. If you have any questions or need additional information,

Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR
1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon Road) in Franklin County
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon
Road) (Figure 1) in Franklin County. SR 1248A is an unpaved roadway that will be
upgraded to a paved roadway. Total project length is 1.34 miles.
Transportation and highway laws of North Carolina (G.S. 136-44.6,13644.7,
136-44.7A, 136-44.8, and 136-44.9) require the NCDOT to develop annual work
programs for construction and maintenance of secondary roads. These general statutes
specifically set forth requirements for annual construction and paving of existing unpaved
roads. Paving of these roads is performed in priority order as established by the NCDOT
for each unpaved road within a given county. This number is based on characteristics of
each road, including number of homes, schools, churches, businesses, industries,
recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of school bus routes, and value as a
thoroughfare. Joe Ward Road Road is scheduled to be paved in the 2000-2001
Secondary Roads Construction Program.
Impacts to Waters of the United States
Construction of the project will necessitate impacts to waters of the United States
(Figure 2) in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. The project crosses an unnamed perennial
tributary to Tooles Creek (DWQ Index No. 28-21-3) at Station 21+90. The existing
structure is a 48 inch corrugated metal pipe that is 37 feet long. The proposed
replacement structure is a 72 inch corrugated aluminum pipe that is 60 feet long.

Impacts to the stream from construction include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23
linear feet existing channel impacted.
Waters of the U.S., Mitigation
Avoidance: All wetlands or surface waters not affected by the project will be
protected from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or
storage of construction supplies will be allowed in or near wetlands or surface waters.
Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at
jurisdictional sites. Strict Enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best
Management Practices for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced
during project construction. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces
and the Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts to waters of the
U.S. at these sites.
Compensatory Mitigation: Construction of the project will result in only minimal
impacts to waters of the U.S. Impacts have been minimized to the maximum extent
possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts, compensatory mitigation for
impacts to waters of the U.S. will not be provided for this project.
Riparian Buffer Impacts
The construction of the project involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject
to the Tar=Pamlico Riparian Buffer Rule. Construction impacts at the jurisdictional
crossing are less than 40 linear feet of riparian buffer. Based on the impacts to the
riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Rule.
Dewatering
The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the stream during the construction
of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of sandbags or Class B or
Class 2 rip rap covered with filter fabric in the stream channel approximately 10 feet
upstream of the proposed pipe inlet (Figure 2). To maintain water flow during
construction, water upstream of this impervious structure will be temporarily pumped out
and conveyed downstream of the construction activity where it will be allowed to filter
through vegetation before flowing into the stream. The stream will be dewatered less
than a day. This will result in temporary impacts to these surface waters.
Temporary impacts to the stream from this activity will result in the dewatering of <0.01
ac of stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. The sandbags or rip rap covered with
filter fabric will be removed after construction.
Permit Issues
The construction of the project is authorized under a Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 14, linear transportation crossings. Notification for the use of this NWP to
the USACE is not required for this project, as the discharge associated with the project is
less than 0.10 acre and there are no impacts to special aquatic sites (including wetlands).
Accordingly, notification to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) for
Section 401 Water Quality Certificate (WQC) No. 3289 is not required for this project.
NCDOT will comply with all conditions associated with this NWP and WQC.
The purpose of this letter is to request authorization under a Section 404 NWP 33
to dewater the stream during project construction. The 401 WQC No. 3114 (which
corresponds to NWP 33) does not require written concurrence from the NCDWQ as
NCDOT intends to comply with conditions for the WQC.
Summary
NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 1248A in Franklin County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Impacts associated with the pipe
replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. Based
on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Riparian
Buffer Rule. The NCDOT asks that the dewatering of the stream be authorized under a
Section 404 NWP 33. The NCDOT will adhere to all applicable Section 404 NWPs and
Section 401 WQCs conditions. If you have any questions or need additional information,
please contact me at (919) 560-6081.

Attention: Mr. Eric Alsmeyer
NCDOT Coordinator
Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR
1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon Road) in Franklin County.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) from SR 1248A (Joe Ward Road) to SR 1249 (Weldon
Road) (Figure 1) in Franklin County.. SR 1248A is an unpaved roadway that will be
upgraded to a paved roadway. Total project length is 1.34 miles.
Transportation and highway laws of North Carolina (G. S. 136-44.6, 136-44.7,
136-44.7A, 136-44.8, and 136-44.9) require the NCDOT to develop annual work
programs for construction and maintenance of secondary roads. These general statutes
specifically set forth requirements for annual construction and paving of existing unpaved
roads. Paving of these roads is performed in priority order as established by the NCDOT
for each unpaved road within a given county. This number is based on characteristics of
each road, including number of homes, schools, churches, businesses, industries,
recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of school bus routes, and value as a
thoroughfare. Joe Ward Road Road is scheduled to be paved in the 2000-2001
Secondary Roads Construction Program.
Impacts to Waters of the United States
Construction of the project will necessitate impacts to waters of the United States
(Figure 2) in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. The project crosses an unnamed perennial
tributary to Tooles Creek (DWQ Index No. 28-21-3) at Station 21+90. The existing
structure is a 48 inch corrugated metal pipe that is 37 feet long. The proposed
replacement structure is a 72 inch corrugated aluminum pipe that is 60 feet long.
Division 5, 2612 N. Duke Street, Durham, NC 27704
Phone: (919) 560-6081 Fax: (919) 560-3371
Impacts to the stream from construction include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23
linear feet existing channel impacted.
Waters of the U.S. Mitigation
Avoidance: All wetlands or surface waters not affected by the project will be
protected from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or
storage of construction supplies will be allowed in or near wetlands or surface waters.
Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at
jurisdictional sites. Strict Enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best
Management Practices for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced
during project construction. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces
and the Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts to waters of the
U.S. at these sites.
Compensatory Mitigation: Construction of the project will result in only minimal
impacts to waters of the U.S. Impacts have been minimized to the maximum extent
possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts, compensatory mitigation for
impacts to waters of the U.S. will not be provided for this project.
Riparian Buffer Impacts
The construction of the project involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject
to the Tar=Pamlico Riparian Buffer Rule. Construction impacts at the jurisdictional
crossing are less than 40 linear feet of riparian buffer. Based on the impacts to the
riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Rule.
Dewatering
The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the stream during the construction
of the project. This will involve the temporary placement of sandbags or Class B or
Class 2 rip rap covered with filter fabric in the stream channel approximately 10 feet
upstream of the proposed pipe inlet (Figure 2). To maintain water flow during
construction, water upstream of this impervious structure will be temporarily pumped out
and conveyed downstream of the construction activity where it will be allowed to filter
through vegetation before flowing into the stream. The stream will be dewatered less
than a day. This will result in temporary impacts to these surface waters.
Temporary impacts to the stream from this activity will result in the dewatering of <0.01
ac of stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. The sandbags or rip rap covered with
filter fabric will be removed after construction.
Permit Issues
The construction of the project is authorized under a Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWT) 14, linear transportation crossings. Notification for the use of this NWP to
3
the USACE is not required for this project, as the discharge associated with the project is
less than 0.10 acre and there are no impacts to special aquatic sites (including wetlands).
Accordingly, notification to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NCDWQ) for
Section 401 Water Quality Certificate (WQC) No. 3289 is not required for this project.
NCDOT will comply with all conditions associated with this NWP and WQC.
The purpose of this letter is to request authorization under a Section 404 NWP 33
to dewater the stream during project construction. The 401 WQC No. 3114 (which
corresponds to NWP 33) does not require written concurrence from the NCDWQ as
NCDOT intends to comply with conditions for the WQC.
Summary
NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 1248A in Franklin County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Impacts associated with the pipe
replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 23 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Tar-Pamlico River Basin. Based
on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, the crossing is exempt from the Riparian
Buffer Rule. The NCDOT asks that the dewatering of the stream be authorized under a
Section 404 NWP 33. The NCDOT will adhere to all applicable Section 404 NWPs and
Section 401 WQCs conditions. If you have any questions or need additional information,
please contact me at (919) 560-6081.
