DWQ Project No. 010348
SR 1384 (Proffitt Road)
APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Mr. Heath Slaughter, Division Environmental Officer
NCDOT Division 11
P.O. Box 250
North Wilkesboro, NC 28659
Dear Mr. Slaughter:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact 40
linear feet of an unnamed tributary to Meat Camp Creek in order to improve SR 1384 (Proffitt Road) and
place three wet pipes in Watauga County. The project should be constructed in accordance with your
application dated 5 March 2001. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is
covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 3289 corresponding to the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers Nationwide Permit Number 14. 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 be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional
conditions listed below.
1. In-stream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are prohibited during the
trout spawning season of October 15 through April 15, or as otherwise determined by the North
Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, to protect the egg and fry stages of trout from
sedimentation during construction.
2. 'Storm water should be directed to buffer areas or retention basins and should not be routed directly
into streams.
3. Sedimentation and Erosion Control Guidelines for Sensitive Watersheds (15A NCAC 4B .0024) must
be implemented prior to any ground-disturbing activities to minimize impacts to downstream aquatic
resources. Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 5
days of ground-disturbing activities to provide long term erosion control.
4. The culvert required for this project shall be installed in such a manner that the original stream profile
is not altered (i.e. the depth of the channel should not be reduced by a widening of the streambed).
Existing stream dimensions are to be maintained above and below locations of culvert extensions.
5. All work shall be performed during low flow conditions.

Page 2 of 2
6. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters should be regularly inspected and maintained
to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic
materials.
7. The presence of equipment in the channels must be minimized. Under no circumstances should rock,
sand or other materials be dredged from the wetted stream channel under authorization of this permit,
except in the immediate vicinity of the culverts.
8. Mowing of existing vegetated buffers is strongly discouraged, so that they may be utilized for storm
water sheet flow.
9. Use of rip-rap for bank stabilization is to be minimized; rather, native vegetation is to be planted
when practical. If necessary, rip-rap should be limited to the stream bank below the high water mark,
and vegetation should be used for stabilization above high water.
10. Rock silt screens at culvert outlets should be removed at project completion.
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, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C.
27699-6714. 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.
Sincerely,

Re: Permit Application for SR 1384
DWQ No. 010348
Dear Mr. -Slaughter:
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 area:
The proposed stream impacts should be reported in linear feet (rip-rap to rip-rap) for each pipe.
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 Cynthia Van der Wiele at 919-733-5715.
Sincerely,
n . Dorney

Watauga County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Lund:

The NC Department of Transportation is scheduled to grade, drain, base, and pave primarily
along the existing roadway of SR 1384 (Proffitt Road) in Watauga County. This project will
require replacing three (3) wet cross lines as shown below:
1) Replace existing 30'x 24" CMP at station 2+80 with a 40'x 36" CNIP. i D
I
2) Replace existing 30'x 59" CMP at station 10+85 with a 50'x 59" CMP. 2 0
3) Replace existing 40'x 48" CMP at station 13+75 with a 50'x 48" CMP. lp
Please note that a concrete headwall will be installed on the inlet of the new pipe installed at
station 10+85. All wet pipes carry unnamed tributaries to Meat Camp Creek (Class C, Trout +).
Any widening of the existing roadway will be directed away from any adjacent creek whenever
possible with minimum fill placed in the buffer area. The total project length is approximately 1.2
miles. Due to the proposed work, we are requesting a 404 Nationwide Permit #14.
Attached is a Preconstruction Notification Form, plan sheet with proposed erosion control
measures, roadway typical section, a marked county map, a marked topography map and
photographs.
By copy of this letter, it is requested that Mr. Ron Linville, Mountain Region Coordinator, with
the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission comment directly to you concerning the 404
Nationwide Permit application with a copy sent to me.

Subject: Nationwide Permit 914
SR 1384 (Proffitt Road)
Watauga County, North Carolina
Dear Mr. Lund:
a1 2001
The NC Department of Transportation is scheduled to grade, drain, base, and pave primarily
along the existing roadway of SR 1384 (Proffitt Road) in Watauga County. This project will
require replacing three (3) wet cross lines as shown below:
1) Replace existing 30'x 24" CMP at station 2+80 with a 40'x 36" CMP.
2) Replace existing 30'x 59" CNIP at station 10+85 with a 50'x 59" CMP.
3) Replace existing 40'x 48" CMP at station 13+75 with a 50'x 48" CMP.
Please note that a concrete headwall will be installed on the inlet of the new pipe installed at
station 10+85. All wet pipes carry unnamed tributaries to Meat Camp Creek (Class C, Trout +).
Any widening of the existing roadway will be directed away from any adjacent creek whenever
possible with minimum fill placed in the buffer area. The total project length is approximately 1.2
miles. Due to the proposed work, we are requesting a 404 Nationwide Permit 914.
Attached is a Preconstruction Notification Form, plan sheet with proposed erosion control
measures, roadway typical section, a marked county map, a marked topography map and
photographs.
By copy of this letter, it is requested that Mr. Ron Linville, Mountain Region Coordinator, with
the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission comment directly to you concerning the 404
Nationwide Permit application with a copy sent to me.

DATE: March 7, 2001
SUBJECT: North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT), SRI 384, Proffitt
Road, Unnamed Tributaries to Meat Camp Creek, Watauga County
These comments are provided in accordance with the provisions of the Fish and
Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 1.6 U.S.C. 661-667d) and the North
Carolina Environmental Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 through 113A-10; NCAC 25). The
NCDOT proposes to grade, drain, base, and pave the referenced road. Same size pipes
will replace existing pipes at Stations 2+80, 10+85, and 13+75. Meat Camp Creek is
Hatchery Supported Trout waters that supports a significant population of brown trout.
We will not object to the project as proposed by Mr. Heath Slaughter provided
that the following conditions are implemented:
1. Replacement pipes will be•sized and installed approximately one (1) foot below
streambed grade so that no damning or freefalling occurs on either end of the
pipe during low flow conditions. The dimgnsion, pattern, and profile of the
stream above and below the pipes should not be modified by widening the
stream channel or reducing the depth of the stream.
2. If concrete will be used, work must be accomplished so that wet concrete does
not contact stream water. This will lessen the chance of altering the stream's
water chemistry and causing a fish kill.
3. Heavy equipment should be operated from the bank rather than in the stream
channel in order to minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of
introducing other pollutants into the stream.
Mailing Address: Division of Leland Fisheries • 1721 Mail Service Center • Raleigh, NC 27699-1721
Telephone: [phone] ext. 281 • Fax: [phone]
SR1384, Proffitt Road 2 03/07/01
4. Stringent erosion control measures should be installed where soil is disturbed
and maintained until project completion.
5. Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare
soil within 5 days of ground disturbing; activities to provide long-term erosion
control. We encourage NCDOT to utilize onsite vegetation and materials for
streambank stabilization when practicable.
6. Instream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are
prohibited during the trout spawning seasons of October 15 through April 15 to
protect the egg and fry stages of trout from off-site sedimentation during
construction.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project during the
early planning stages. If you have any questions regarding these comments, please
contact me at 336/769-9453.

SUBJECT: John L. Thomas property, Unnamed Tributary to Riddle Fork Creek, a
tributary to Meat Camp Creek, Watauga County
"These comments are provided in accordance with the provisions of the Dish and
Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and the North
Carolina Environmental Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 through 113A-10; NCAC 25). The
applicant proposes to install a road crossing at the referenced site for a farm road. A 35'
buffer is proposed along the rest of the stream. Meat Camp Creek is 1-latchery Supported
Trout waters that supports a significant population of brown trout.
We will not object to the project as proposed provided that the following
conditions are implemented:
1. The 40' culvert will be appropriately sized and installed approximately one (l)
foot below streambed grade so that no damming or frecfalling occurs on either
end of the pipe during low flow conditions. The length of culvert will be
reduced to 30 linear feet, if possible. 'The dimension, pattern, and profile of the
stream above and below the pipes should not be modified by widening the
stream channel or reducing the depth of the stream.
2. If any concrete will be used, work must be accomplished so that wet concrete
does not contact stream water. ]'his will lessen the chance of altering the
