NCDENR NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES June 15, 2001 Wake County DWQ Project No. 010652 APPROVAL OF 401 Water Quality Certification and ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS and Neuse River Buffer Rules Mr. J.G. Nance, P.E., Division Engineer NCDOT, Division 5 2612 N. Duke Street Durham, North Carolina 27704 Dear Mr. Nance: You have our approval, as described in your application dated April 25, 2001, and in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill material in 0.12 acres of jurisdictional wetlands and 22 linear feet of streams. In addition, you are authorized to impact an additional 104 linear feet of streams for the purpose of dewatering the site during construction. The purpose of the project is to widen and pave SR 2300 (Pulley Town Road) from SR 2301 (Barham Siding Road) to 1100 feet south of SR 2224 (Mitchell Mill Road) in Wake County. The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated April 25, 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 Neuse River buffer rules (15A NCAC 2B .033). 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 2H.0506 (h) (6) and (7). ). This approval shall expire with the corresponding Nationwide Permit expires or as otherwise provided in the General Certification. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below. 1. Stormwater shall be directed to sheetflow at nonerosive velocities through the protected stream buffers. 2. 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 4011Wetlands Unit of the Division of Water Quality upon completion of the project.

EASLEY LYNDO TIPPETT GOVERNOR SECRETARY April 25, 2001 U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Raleigh Regulatory Field Office 6 5 Z o65 6508 Falls of the Neuse Road, Suite 120 Raleigh, NC 27609 Attention: Mr. Eric Alsmeyer NCDOT Coordinator Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 2300 (Pulley Town Road) from SR 2301 (Barham Siding Road) to 1100 feet south of SR 2224 (Mitchell Mill Road) in Wake County. NCDOT Work Order No. 6.402564. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade to SR 2300 (Pulley Town Road) from SR 2301 (Barham Siding Road) to 1100 feet south of SR 2224 (Mitchell Mill Road) in Wake County. Total project length is 1.2 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. SR 2300 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 at two sites in the Neuse River Basin (Figures 1, 2). Both sites involve impacts to a wetland an intermittent stream. Wetland delineations were conducted using the field delineation method outlined in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory, 1987). U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetland Data Forms and a North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Wetland Rating Form are attached to this application. ..? -T-) r "r ..r ET- Division 5, 2612 N. Duke Street, Durham, NC 27704 Phone: (919) 560-6081 Fax: (919) 560-3371 Site 1 (126+24-L- to 128+90-L-) Construction at this site will impact a palustrine emergent wetland (PEM2B) and an unnamed intermittent (very low flow) tributary to Little River (DWQ Index No. 27- 57-(1), Best Usage Classification WS-II NSW) (Figure 3). This stream originates at the wetland located on the west side of Pulley Town Road. The existing structure is a 18- inch concrete pipe that is 30 feet long. The replacement pipe is a 36-inch concrete pipe that is 44 feet long. Permanent impacts at the site include <0.01 acre fill in surface water, 14 linear feet existing channel impacted, and 0.06 acre fill in wetlands. Site 2 (134+33-L- to 136+89-L-) Construction at this site will impact a palustrine emergent wetland (PEM213) and an unnamed intermittent (very low flow) tributary to Cedar Fork (DWQ Index No. 27-57- 3, Best Usage Classification WS-II NSW) (Figure 4). This stream originates at the wetland located on the west side of Pulley Town Road. The existing structure is a 18- inch concrete pipe that is 32 feet long. The replacement pipe is a 36-inch concrete pipe that is 40 feet long. Permanent impacts at the site include <0.01 acre fill in surface water, eight linear feet existing channel impacted, and 0.06 acre fill in wetlands. Waters of the U.S. Mitigation Avoidance: All wetlands and 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 wetlands or near surface waters. The existing bridge over Cedar Fork at Station 142+50-L- will not be replaced. 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 these sites. The unnamed intermittent tributary to Cedar Fork and unnamed intermittent tributary to Little River both have a Best Usage Classification of Class WS-II NSW. Accordingly, NCODT Design Standards for Sensitive Watersheds (HQW Guidelines) will be enforced during the life of the project. This allows for 1,800 cubic feet of storage per acre. Compensatory Mitigation: Construction of the project will result in only minimal impacts to waters of the United States. Impacts have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts, compensatory mitigation for stream impacts will not be provided for this project. Dewatering The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the streams at Site 1 and Site 2, if necessary, 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 3 and Figure 4). 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 streams will be dewatered less than a day. This will result in temporary impacts to the surface waters. Temporary impacts to the streams from this activity will result in the dewatering of <0.01 ac of stream bed and 54 linear feet stream channel at Site 1 and of <0.01 ac of stream bed and 50 linear feet stream channel at Site 2. The sandbags or rip rap covered with filter fabric will be removed after construction. Riparian Buffer Impacts The construction of the project involves a road crossing of two low flow intermittent streams located in the Neuse River Basin. Please note that these streams are not depicted on most recent version of the Soil Survey of Wake County, North Carolina (Figure 2) (USDA-SCS, 1970) or on the most recent version of the Rolesville, North Carolina topographic quadrangle (USGS, 1993) (Figure 1). According to the Rules, riparian buffers adjacent to surface waters that do not appear on either of these maps shall not be subject to the Rule. Protected Species Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed Endangered and Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the ESA. As of February 7, 2001, there are four federally-protected species listed for Wake County. They include bald eagle (Haliaeeuts leucocephalus), red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis), dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon) and Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii). Biological Conclusions of No Effect have been rendered for each species. Summary NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 2300 in Wake County. Permanent impacts at Site 1 include <0.01 acre fill in surface water, 14 linear feet existing channel impacted, and 0.06 acre fill in wetlands. Permanent impacts at Site 2 include <0.01 acre fill in surface water, eight linear feet existing channel impacted, and 0.06 acre fill in wetlands. Temporary impacts to the streams from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of stream bed and 50 linear feet stream channel at Site 1 and of <0.01 ac of stream bed and 54 linear feet stream channel at Site 2. Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) 14 and NWP 33 and DWQ Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) No. 3289 and No. 3114 for construction of this project. The NCDOT will comply with all applicable NWP and WQC conditions. In compliance with Section 143-215.3D(e) of the NCAA we have enclosed a check for $200.00 to act as payment for processing the Section 401 permit application. A pre-construction 4 notification is attached with this request. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact me at (919) 560-6081. Sincerely, Christopher A.

Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) Application Form For Section 404 and/or Section 10 Nationwide, Regional and General Permits, Section 401 General Water Quality Certifications, and Riparian Buffer and Watershed Buffer Rules This form is to be used for projects qualifying for any of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (USACE) Nationwide, Regional or General Permits as required by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, and for the North Carolina Division of Water Quality's (DWQ) associated General 401 Water Quality Certifications. This form is also to be used for any project requiring approval under any Riparian Buffer Rules implemented by the N.C. Division of Water Quality. This form should not be used if you are requesting an Individual 404 Permit or Individual 401 Water Quality Certification. The USACE Individual Permit application form is available online at http //N?ww.saw.usace.army_iiiil!w_etlands/Peritl _app.him. The USACE is the lead regulatory agency. To review the requirements for the use of Nationwide, Regional or General permits, and to determine which permit applies to your project, please go to the USACE website at http //www.saw usace arnl??.mil/wetlawls/re-totir._htnl, or contact one of the field offices listed at the end of this application. The website also lists the responsible project manager for each county in North Carolina and provides additional information regarding the identification and regulation of wetlands and waters of the U. S. The DWQ issues a corresponding Certification (General or Individual), and cannot tell the applicant which 401 Certification will apply until the 404 Permit type has been determined by the USACE. Applicants are encouraged to visit DWQ's 401/Wetlands Unit website at http //lh2g_enr_state.nc.tis/ncwetlands to read about current requirements for the 401 Water Quality Certification Program and to determine whether or not Riparian Buffer Rules are applicable. The applicant is also advised to read the full text of the General Certification (GC) matching the specific 404 Permit requested. In some cases, written approval for some General Certifications is not required, provided that the applicant adheres to all conditions of the GC. Applicants lacking access to the internet should contact DWQ's Central Office in Raleigh at (919) 733-1786. Trout Waters Coordination - Special coordination with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) is also required for projects occurring in any of North Carolina's twenty-five counties that contain trout waters. In such cases, the applicant should contact the appropriate NCWRC regional coordinator (listed by county on the last page of this application). Page 1 of 12 CAMA Coordination - If the project occurs in any of North Carolina's twenty coastal counties (listed on the last page of this application) the applicant should also contact the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM) at (919) 733-2293. DCM will determine whether or not the project involves a designated Area of Environmental Concern, in which case DCM will act as the lead permitting agency. In such cases, DCM will require a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Permit and will coordinate the 404/401 Permits. USACE Permits - Submit one copy of this form, along with supporting narratives, maps, data forms, photos, etc. to the applicable USACE Regulatory Field Office (addresses are listed at the end of this application). Upon receipt of an application, the USACE will determine if the application is complete as soon as possible, not to exceed 30 days. This PCN form is designed for the convenience of the applicant to address information needs for all USACE Nationwide, Regional or General permits, as well as information required for State authorizations, certifications, and coordination. Fully providing the information requested on this form will result in a complete application for any of the USACE Nationwide, Regional or General permits. To review the minimum amount of information that must be provided for a complete PCN for each USACE Nationwide permit, see Condition 13, 65 Fed.Reg. 12893 (March 9, 2000), available at h(tp;//www saw,usac•e.army.mil/wetlands/nwh(i_nalFedR_ewg._hdr. Processing times vary by permit and begin once the application has been determined to be complete. Please contact the appropriate regulatory field office for specific answers to permit processing periods. 401 Water Quality Certification or Buffer Rules - All information is required unless otherwise stated as optional. Incomplete applications will be returned. Submit seven collated copies of all USACE Permit materials to the Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetlands Unit, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650. If written approval is required or specifically requested for a 401 Certification, then a non-refundable application fee is required. In brief, if project impacts include less than one acre of cumulative wetland/water impacts and less than 150 feet cumulative impacts to streams, then a fee of $200 is required. If either of these thresholds is exceeded, then a fee of $475 is required. A check made out to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, with the specific name of the project or applicant identified, should be stapled to the front of the application package. For more information, see the DWQ website at httr)//112o.el ni state,nc,tis/iicwetlantls/tics litiiil. The fee must be attached with the application unless the applicant is a federal agency in which case the check may be issued from a separate office. In such cases, the project must be identifiable on the U.S. Treasury check so that it can be credited to the appropriate project. If written approval is sought solely for Buffer Rules, the application fee does not apply, and the applicant should clearly state (in a cover letter) that only Buffer Rule approval is sought in writing. Wetlands or waters of the U. S. may not be impacted prior to issuance or waiver of a Section 401 Water Quality Certification. Upon receipt of a complete application for a 401 Certification, the Division of Water Quality has 60 days to prepare a written response to the applicant. This may include a 401 Certification, an on-hold letter pending receipt of additional requested information, or denial.

NCDOT Work Order No. 6.402564. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade to SR 2300 (Pulley Town Road) from SR 2301 (Barham Siding Road) to 1100 feet south of SR 2224 (Mitchell Mill Road) in Wake County. Total project length is 1.2 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 -? -n each road, including number of homes, schools, churches, businesses, industries, r T recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of school bus routes, and value as a r thoroughfare. SR 2300 is scheduled to be paved in the 2000-2001 Secondary Roads r71 ? Construction Program. c -_i Impacts to Waters of the United States Construction of the project will necessitate impacts to waters of the United States at two sites in the Neuse River Basin (Figures 1, 2). Both sites involve impacts to a wetland an intermittent stream. Wetland delineations were conducted using the field delineation method outlined in the 1987 Corps of Engineers Wetland Delineation Manual (Environmental Laboratory, 1987). U. S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Wetland Data Forms and a North Carolina Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Wetland Rating Form are attached to this application. Division 5, 2612 N. Duke Street, Durham, NC 27704 Phone: (919) 560-6081 Fax: (919) 560-3371 Site 1 (126+24-L- to 128+90-L-) Construction at this site will impact a palustrine emergent wetland (PEM213) and an unnamed intermittent (very low flow) tributary to Little River (DWQ Index No. 27- 57-(1), Best Usage Classification WS-II NSW) (Figure 3). This stream originates at the wetland located on the west side of Pulley Town Road. The existing structure is a 18- inch concrete pipe that is 30 feet long. The replacement pipe is a 36-inch concrete pipe that is 44 feet long. Permanent impacts at the site include <0.01 acre fill in surface water, 14 linear feet existing channel impacted, and 0.06 acre fill in wetlands. Site 2 (134+33-L- to 136+89-L-) -Construction at this site will impact a palustrine emergent wetland (PEM213) and an unnamed intermittent (very low flow) tributary to Cedar Fork (DWQ Index No. 27-57- 3, Best Usage Classification WS-II NSW) (Figure 4). This stream originates at the wetland located on the west side of Pulley Town Road. The existing structure is a 18- inch concrete pipe that is 32 feet long. The replacement pipe is a 36-inch concrete pipe that is 40 feet long. Permanent impacts at the site include <0.01 acre fill in surface water, eight linear feet existing channel impacted, and 0.06 acre fill in wetlands. Waters of the U.S. Mitigation Avoidance: All wetlands and 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 wetlands or near surface waters. The existing bridge over Cedar Fork at Station 142+50-L- will not be replaced. 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 these sites. The unnamed intermittent tributary to Cedar Fork and unnamed intermittent tributary to Little River both have a Best Usage Classification of Class WS-II NSW. Accordingly, NCODT Design Standards for Sensitive Watersheds (HQW Guidelines) will be enforced during the life of the project. This allows for 1,800 cubic feet of storage per acre. Compensatory Mitigation: Construction of the project will result in only minimal impacts to waters of the United States. Impacts have been avoided and minimized to the maximum extent possible during the design process. Due to minimal impacts, compensatory mitigation for stream impacts will not be provided for this project. Dewatering The NCDOT proposes to temporarily dewater the streams at Site 1 and Site 2, if necessary, 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 3 and Figure 4). 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 streams will be dewatered less than a day. This will result in temporary impacts to the surface waters. Temporary impacts to the streams from this activity will result in the dewatering of <0.01 ac of stream bed and 54 linear feet stream channel at Site 1 and of <0.01 ac of stream bed and 50 linear feet stream channel at Site 2. The sandbags or rip rap covered with filter fabric will be removed after construction. Riparian Buffer Impacts The construction of the project involves a road crossing of two low flow intermittent streams located in the Neuse River Basin. Please note that these streams are not depicted on most recent version of the Soil Survey of Wake County, North Carolina (Figure 2) (USDA-SCS, 1970) or on the most recent version of the Rolesville, North Carolina topographic quadrangle (USGS, 1993) (Figure 1). According to the Rules, riparian buffers adjacent to surface waters that do not appear on either of these maps shall not be subject to the Rule. Protected Species Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed Endangered and Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the ESA. As of February 7, 2001, there are four federally-protected species listed for Wake County. They include bald eagle (Haliaeeuts leucocephalus), red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis), dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterodon) and Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii). Biological Conclusions of No Effect have been rendered for each species. Summary NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 2300 in Wake County. Permanent impacts at Site 1 include <0.01 acre fill in surface water, 14 linear feet existing channel impacted, and 0.06 acre fill in wetlands. Permanent impacts at Site 2 include <0.01 acre fill in surface water, eight linear feet existing channel impacted, and 0.06 acre fill in wetlands. Temporary impacts to the streams from dewatering activity will involve <0.01 ac of stream bed and 50 linear feet stream channel at Site 1 and of <0.01 ac of stream bed and 54 linear feet stream channel at Site 2. Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) 14 and NWP 33 and DWQ Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) No. 3289 and No. 3114 for construction of this project. The NCDOT will comply with all applicable NWP and WQC conditions. In compliance with Section 143-215.3D(e) of the NCAA we have enclosed a check for $200.00 to act as payment for processing the Section 401 permit application.

C? r > :7q Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) Application Form For Section 404 and/or Section 10 Nationwide, Regional and General Permits, Section 401 General Water Quality Certifications, and Riparian Buffer and Watershed Buffer Rules This form is to be used for projects qualifying for any of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (USACE) Nationwide, Regional or General Permits as required by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, and for the North Carolina Division of Water Quality's (DWQ) associated General 401 Water Quality Certifications. This form is also to be used for any project requiring approval under any Riparian Buffer Rules implemented by the N.C. Division of Water Quality. This form should not be used if you are requesting an Individual 404 Permit or Individual 401 Water Quality Certification. The USACE Individual Permit application form is available online at littNvw saw, IS<tce al'tij mil/wctl, l.nds/1'crm_a}?p_htm. The USACE is the lead regulatory agency. To review the requirements for the use of Nationwide, Regional or General permits, and to determine which permit applies to your project, please go to the USACE website at http_//www.saw usac.e.ari.rny mil/wetlands/i_e"t0xir.htn1, or contact one of the field offices listed at the end of this application. The website also lists the responsible project manager for each county in North Carolina and provides additional information regarding the identification and regulation of wetlands and waters of the U. S. The DWQ issues a corresponding Certification (General or Individual), and cannot tell the applicant which 401 Certification will apply until the 404 Permit type has been determined by the USACE. Applicants are encouraged to visit DWQ's 401/Wetlands Unit website at littp./ 2o.enr,statt.nc_us/I1CV ct14 ids to read about current requirements for the 401 Water Quality Certification Program and to determine whether or not Riparian Buffer Rules are applicable. The applicant is also advised to read the full text of the General Certification (GC) matching the specific 404 Permit requested. In some cases, written approval for some General Certifications is not required, provided that the applicant adheres to all conditions of the GC. Applicants lacking access to the internet should contact DWQ's Central Office in Raleigh at (919) 733-1786. Trout Waters Coordination - Special coordination with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) is also required for projects occurring in any of North Carolina's twenty-five counties that contain trout waters. In such cases, the applicant should contact the appropriate NCWRC regional coordinator (listed by county on the last page of this application). Page 1 of 12 CAMA Coordination - If the project occurs in any of North Carolina's twenty coastal counties (listed on the last page of this application) the applicant should also contact the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management (DCM) at (919) 733-2293. DCM will determine whether or not the project involves a designated Area of Environmental Concern, in which case DCM will act as the lead permitting agency. In such cases, DCM will require a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Permit and will coordinate the 404/401 Permits. USACE Permits - Submit one copy of this form, along with supporting narratives, maps, data forms, photos, etc. to the applicable USACE Regulatory Field Office (addresses are listed at the end of this application). Upon receipt of an application, the USACE will determine if the application is complete as soon as possible, not to exceed 30 days. This PCN form is designed for the convenience of the applicant to address information needs for all USACE Nationwide, Regional or General permits, as well as information required for State authorizations, certifications, and coordination. Fully providing the information requested on this form will result in a complete application for any of the USACE Nationwide, Regional or General permits. To review the minimum amount of information that must be provided for a complete PCN for each USACE Nationwide permit, see Condition 13, 65 Fed.Reg. 12893 (March 9, 2000), available at htt,h.//www_ saw. iisace.armv.iiii_I/wetlands/nwp(inall`edReg_hd_I' Processing times vary by permit and begin once the application has been determined to be complete. Please contact the appropriate regulatory field office for specific answers to permit processing periods. 401 Water Quality Certification or Buffer Rules - All information is required unless otherwise stated as optional. Incomplete applications will be returned. Submit seven collated copies of all USACE Permit materials to the Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetlands Unit, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650. If written approval is required or specifically requested for a 401 Certification, then a non-refundable application fee is required. In brief, if project impacts include less than one acre of cumulative wetland/water impacts and less than 150 feet cumulative impacts to streams, then a fee of $200 is required. If either of these thresholds is exceeded, then a fee of $475 is required. A check made out to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, with the specific name of the project or applicant identified, should be stapled to the front of the application package. For more information, see the DWQ website at littp // i o their, state, nC us/ncwetl_ands/fees.ht_i 1. The fee must be attached with the application unless the applicant is a federal agency in which case the check may be issued from a separate office. In such cases, the project must be identifiable on the U.S. Treasury check so that it can be credited to the appropriate project. If written approval is sought solely for Buffer Rules, the application fee does not apply, and the applicant should clearly state (in a cover letter) that only Buffer Rule approval is sought in writing. Wetlands or waters of the U. S. may not be impacted prior to issuance or waiver of a Section 401 Water Quality Certification. Upon receipt of a complete application for a 401 Certification, the Division of Water Quality has 60 days to prepare a written response to the applicant. This may include a 401 Certification, an on-hold letter pending receipt of additional requested information, or denial.

Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. All wetlands and surface waters not affected by project construction will be protected from unnecessary encroachment No staging of equipment will be allowed in or adjacent to waters of the U.S. unless necessary for construction The side slopes at the jurisdictional sites have been steepened to the maximum extent possible Strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced during construction. Also, design standards for sensitive watersheds (HQW guidelines) will be enforced during, construction. Only the smallest amount of fill necessary to complete the project will be placed in waters of the United States. VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. Page 7 of 12 If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at Iitth 8h`2o ciu,statc.iu us/11Cv ?et_1,1Il S!St 1111 "1 Cie. lit fill.
