The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
and pave SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102 (Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate
Road) in Granville County. Project length is 0.1 mile. A permit application outlining
impacts associated with this project was submitted to the United States Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) and copied to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
(NCDWQ) on February 12, 2001. John Hennessy (NCDWQ) informed the Division on
March 9, 2001 that the application was incomplete. The project required concurrence
from the NCDWQ and the permit application lacked the appropriate number of permit
application copies and a check for $200.00. An addendum was subsequently forwarded
to the NCDWQ on March 14, 2001.
The NCDWQ informed the Division by letter on April 27, 2001 that the
application was still incomplete and placed the project on HOLD. In order to complete
the application, the Division is attaching appropriate maps and drawings indicating the
location of the proposed impacts.

Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102
(Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road) in Granville County.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102 (Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road)
(Figure 1) in Granville County. SR 1105B is an unpaved roadway that will be upgraded
to a paved roadway. Total project length is 0.10 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. Green 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 Neuse River Basin. The project crosses an unnamed perennial tributary
to Neuse River (Falls Lake below normal pool elevation, DWQ Index No. 27-(5.5)) at
Station 11+62-L-. The existing structure is a 18 inch reinforced concrete pipe that is 36
feet long. The proposed replacement structure is a 24 inch reinforced concrete pipe that

is 60 feet long. Permanent impacts to the stream from construction include <0.01 ac fill
in surface water and 24 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 Neuse 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 1105B in Granville County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Permanent impacts associated with the
pipe replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 24 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Neuse 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 [phone].

Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102
(Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road) in Granville County.
. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR I I05B (Green Road) from SR 1102 (Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road)
(Figure 1) in Granville County. SR 1105B is an unpaved roadway that will be upgraded
to a paved roadway. Total project length is 0.10 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. Green 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 Neuse River Basin. The project crosses an unnamed perennial tributary
to Neuse River (Falls Lake below normal pool elevation, DWQ Index No. 27-(5.5)) at
Station 11+62-L-. The existing structure is a 18 inch reinforced concrete pipe that is 36
feet long. The proposed replacement structure is a 24 inch reinforced concrete pipe that

a
is 60 feet long. Permanent impacts to the stream from construction include <0.01 ac fill
in surface water and 24 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 Neuse 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
h
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 1105B in Granville County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Permanent impacts associated with the
pipe replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 24 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Neuse 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

Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102
(Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road) in Granville County.
Reference: 1. USACE Permit Application (February 12, 2001).
2. Permit Application Addendum forwarded to NCDWQ (March 14,
2001)
3. NCDWQ notice indication HOLD status of project (April 27, 2001)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
and pave SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102 (Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate
Road) in Granville County. Project length is 0.1 mile. A permit application outlining
impacts associated with this project was submitted to the United States Army Corps of
Engineers (USACE) and copied to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
(NCDWQ) on February 12, 2001. John Hennessy (NCDWQ) informed the Division on
March 9, 2001 that the application was incomplete. The project required concurrence
from the NCDWQ and the permit application lacked the appropriate number of permit
application copies and a check for $200.00. An addendum was subsequently forwarded
to the NCDWQ on March 14, 2001.
The NCDWQ informed the Division by letter on April 27, 2001 that the
application was still incomplete and placed the project on HOLD. In order to complete
the application, the Division is attaching appropriate maps and drawings indicating the
location of the proposed impacts.
Green Road (SR 1105) crosses an unnamed perennial tributary to the Neuse River

Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102
(Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road) in Granville County.
Reference: USACE Permit Application (February 12, 2001).
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102 (Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road) in
Granville County. A permit application outlining impacts associated with this project
was submitted to the United States Army Corps of Engineers (LJSACE) 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 (NWT) 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 NWT 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.

Re: Permit Application for improvements to SR 1105 (Green Road) from SR 1102 (Will Suitt Road) to

DWQ No. 010418.
Dear Mr. Nance:
The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your submittal for a 401 Water Quality Certification for the
aforementioned project. Review of your application revealed it lacking necessary information required for
making an informed permit decision. The permit application was deficient in the following areas:
• There were maps or drawings that showed where the proposed impacts would occur on site. The maps
(site drawings) should be of sufficient quality and scale to allow DWQ staff to locate the proposed
impact site in the field.
Therefore, pursuant to 15A NCAC 2h .0507(a)(5), we will have to place the permit application on hold
until we are supplied the necessary information. Furthermore, until the information is received by the NC
Division of Water Quality, we request (by copy of this letter) that the US Army Corps of Engineers place
the permit application on hold.
Hopefully, we can work together to expedite the processing of your permit application. If you have any
questions or require additional information, please contact John Hennessy at 919-733-5694.

Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102
(Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road) in Granville County.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade
SR 1105B (Green Road) from SR 1102 (Will Suitt Road) to SR 1103 (Gate Road)
(Figure 1) in Granville County. SR 1105B is an unpaved roadway that will be upgraded
to a paved roadway. Total project length is 0.10 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. Green 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 Neuse River Basin. The project crosses an unnamed perennial tributary
to Neuse River (Falls Lake below normal pool elevation, DWQ Index No. 27-(5.5)) at
Station 11+62-L-. The existing structure is a 18 inch reinforced concrete pipe that is 36
feet long. The proposed replacement structure is a 24 inch reinforced concrete pipe that
Division 5, 2612 N. Duke Street, Durham, NC 27704

Nf,
R
is 60 feet long. Permanent impacts to the stream from construction incl#de <0.01, ac fillrv t?
in surface water and 24 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 Neuse 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 1105B in Granville County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Permanent impacts associated with the
pipe replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 24 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Neuse 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 [phone].

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 Neuse 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
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 1105B in Granville County.
Temporary impacts to the stream from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of
stream bed and 70 linear feet stream channel. Permanent impacts associated with the
pipe replacement at this project include <0.01 ac fill in surface water and 24 linear feet
existing channel impacted. The project is located in the Neuse 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
