Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1184, Jack Hollifield Road
Yancey County, NC
Dear Mr. Lund:
I have enclosed a straight-line diagram with erosion control plan, a PCN application for
NWP #14, and a location map relative to the proposed project on SR 1184, Jack 70 -p
rq ; ?r
Hollifield Road, Yancey County, NC. C__) -
Jack Hollifield Road is currently a 12-14 feet wide gravel road. Division of Highways rn-i
plans to pave the road 18,feet wide and increase the typical section. Grading will be light o
to moderate.
We propose to extend seven existing culverts on UT's to Cane River. Total culvert
extensions will be 105 linear feet. Existing channel morphology will be maintained
upstream and downstream of the culverts. The culverts will be placed below existing
streambed elevation. Riparian vegetation will be reestablished along disturbed areas
associated with the culvert extensions. Stormwater will be diverted through grass-lined
ditches or vegetated buffers prior to entering streams.
No significant effect on federally listed species (threatened or endangered) or their
habitats is anticipated.
By copy of this letter, we request Owen Anderson, North Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to the Corps concerning
the permit request.

roads The culvert extensions requested are the minimum necessary to establish an appropriate
typical section for the roadway. Riparian vegetation will be established on disturbed areas
associated with the project construction.
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.
Page 5 of 8
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.
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
htti)://1i2o.crnr.state.nc.ushicwetlands/strmaide.html.
Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.

2. Mitigation may also- be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http:/ili2o.cnr.state.nc.Lls/wn)/index.litiii. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):

Yes ? No X
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No X
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
With regard to hazardous spill basins the road is not classified as an arterial route, therefore
hazardous spill basins are not required.

EROSION CONTROL PLAN SHEET
Silt fences and temporary silt ditches shall be installed after clearing and
before grading.
Temporary stone ditch checks shall be installed as soon as ditch-line is
established.
Pipe outlet and inlet protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed.
Silt basins (Type B) will be constructed to the dimension of nine feet by
three feet by two feet unless otherwise noted on plans. (See SB-9 on
dimension sheet)
Seeding and other permanent erosion control measures are to be
implemented as soon as practical.
Temporary rock silt checks (Type B) will be spaced as required by percent
of grade.
PIPE INSTALLATION NOTES
1) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where necessary, rock silt
screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible,
material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the
project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as
possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping
from the project. Where possible, new grade will be below the existing
streambed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
5) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete
installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as
needed on existing measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.

Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1184, Jack Hollifield Road ° --i
Yancey County, NC
Dear Mr. Lund:
I have enclosed a straight-line diagram with erosion control plan, a PCN application for
NWP #14, and a location map relative to the proposed project on SR 1184, Jack
Hollifield Road, Yancey County, NC.
Jack Hollifield Road is currently a 12-14 feet wide gravel road. Division of Highways
plans to pave the road 18 -feet wide and increase the typical section. Grading will be light
to moderate.
We propose to extend seven existing culverts on UT's to Cane River. Total culvert
extensions will be 105 linear feet. Existing channel morphology will be maintained
upstream and downstream of the culverts. The culverts will be placed below existing
streambed elevation. Riparian vegetation will be reestablished along disturbed areas
associated with the culvert extensions. Stormwater will be diverted through grass-lined
ditches or vegetated buffers prior to entering streams.
No significant effect on federally listed species (threatened or endangered) or their
habitats is anticipated.
By copy of this letter, we request Owen Anderson, North Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to the Corps concerning
the permit request.
Mr. Steve Lund
Page -2 SR 1184, Yancey County
July 2, 2001
By copy of this letter, we are asking Ed Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer, to
comment on the above project. Temporary encroachment into the buffer zone of the
Cane River will be required for the project stations 59+00 to 68+00. The stream is
classified as trout and WS-II. A buffer variance will be required.
By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of the application package to
Cynthia Van der Wiele, NC DENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetland Unit for
review and comment. A $200.00 check is enclosed for application processing. Please
forward comments directly to the Corps with copy to Division 13 Environmental Officer.
Your earliest consideration for this request would be greatly appreciated. If you have any
questions or information needs, please contact me at [phone].

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.
The existing secondary-road must be improved to meet current safety standards for paved
roads The culvert extensions requested are the minimum necessary to establish an appropriate
typical section for the roadway. Riparian vegetation will be established on disturbed areas
associated with the project construction.
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.
Page 5 of 8
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.
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
littp://li2o.enr.state.nc.us/ticwetlands/strmt?ide.htnil.
Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
N/A
2. Mitigation may also-be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us%Nvn),index.htm. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only)
Page 6 of 8
Does the project involve an expenditure of public funds or the use of public (federal/state/local)
land?
Yes X No ?
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?

copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes ? No ?
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (DWQ Only)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify, )?
Yes ? No X If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.

Zone I extends out 3U feet perpendicular from near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an
additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone I.
If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B.0242 or.0260.
Page 7 of 8
XI. Stormwater (DWQ Only)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
The existing compacted gravel roadway acts as an impervious surface. Paving of the roadway
should eliminate sedimentation from fines associated with gravel surface treatment. The
roadway surface will be 2.8 acres of the 8.4 acres of right of way. Stormwater will diverted
through settling basins or crass lined buffers prior to entering the streams.
XII. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Only)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
N/A
XIII. Violations (DWQ Only)

Yes ? No X
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No X
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
With regard to hazardous spill basins the road is not classified as an arterial route, therefore
hazardous spill basins are not required.

EROSION CONTROL. PLAN SHEET
Silt fences and temporary silt ditches shall be installed after clearing and
before grading.
Temporary stone ditch checks shall be installed as soon as ditch-line is
established.
Pipe outlet and inlet protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed.
Silt basins (Type B) will be constructed to the dimension of nine feet by
three feet by two feet unless otherwise noted on plans. (See SB-9 on
dimension sheet)
Seeding and other permanent erosion control measures are to be
implemented as soon as practical.
Temporary rock silt checks (Type B) will be spaced as required by percent
of grade.
PIPE INSTALLATION MOTES
1) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where necessary, rock silt
screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible,
material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the
project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as
possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping
from the project. Where possible, new grade will be below the existing
streambed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
S) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete
installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as
needed on existing measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.

Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1184, Jack Hollifield Road
Yancey County, NC
Dear Mr. Lund:
SECRETARY
I have enclosed a straight-line diagram with erosion control plan, a PCN application for
NWP #14, and a location map relative to the proposed project on SR 1184, Jack
Hollifield Road, Yancey County, NC.
Jack Hollifield Road is currently a 12-14 feet wide gravel road. Division of Highways
plans to pave the road 18-feet wide and increase the typical section. Grading will be light
to moderate.
We propose to extend seven existing culverts on UT's to Cane River. Total culvert
extensions will be 105 linear feet. Existing channel morphology will be maintained
upstream and downstream of the culverts. The culverts will be placed below existing
streambed elevation. Riparian vegetation will be reestablished along disturbed areas
associated with the culvert extensions. Stormwater will be diverted through grass-lined
ditches or vegetated buffers prior to entering streams.
No significant effect on federally listed species (threatened or endangered) or their
habitats is anticipated.
C--) -

By copy of this letter, we request Owen Anderson, North Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to the Corps concerning
the permit request.
Mr. Steve Lund
Page -2 SR 1184, Yancey County
July 2, 2001
By copy of this letter, we are asking Ed Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer, to
comment on the above project. Temporary encroachment into the buffer zone of the
Cane River will be required for the project stations 59+00 to 68+00. The stream is
classified as trout and WS-II. A buffer variance will be required.
By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of the application package to
Cynthia Van der Wiele, NC DENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetland Unit for
review and comment. A 5200.00 check is enclosed for application processing. Please
forward comments directly to the Corps with copy to Division 13 Environmental Officer.
Your earliest consideration for this request would be greatly appreciated. If you have any
questions or information needs, please contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,
Rog D. Bryan

III. Project Information
Attach a vicinity map clearly showing the location of the property with respect to local
landmarks such as towns, rivers, and roads. Also provide a detailed site plan showing property
boundaries and development plans in relation to surrounding properties. Both the vicinity map
and site plan must include a scale and north arrow. The specific footprints of all buildings,
impervious surfaces, or other facilities must be included. If possible, the maps and plans should
include the appropriate USGS Topographic Quad Map and NRCS Soil Survey with the property
boundaries outlined. Plan drawings, or other maps may be included at the applicant's discretion,
so long as the property is clearly defined. For administrative and distribution purposes, the
USACE requires information to be submitted on sheets no larger than 11 by 17-inch format;
however, DWQ may accept paperwork of any size. DWQ prefers full-size construction
drawings rather than a sequential sheet version of the full-size plans. If full-size plans are
reduced to a small scale such that the final version is illegible, the applicant will be informed that
the project has been placed on hold until decipherable maps are provided.

* List each impact separately and identify temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: culverts and associated rip-rap,
dams (separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding), relocation (include linear feet before and after, and net loss/gain),
stabilization activities (cement wall, rip-rap, crib wall, gabions, etc.), excavation, ditching/straightening, etc. If stream relocation is
proposed, plans and profiles showing the linear footprint for both the original and relocated streams must be included.
** Stream names can be found on USGS topographic maps. If a stream has no name, list as UT (unnamed tributary) to the nearest
downstream named stream into which it flows. USGS maps are available_ through the USGS at 1-800-358-9616, or online at
www-.usu,s.i;ov. Several intemet sites also allow direct download and printing of USGS maps (e.g., www.topoxone.com,
www.mapquest.com, etc.).
Cumulative impacts (linear distance in feet) to all streams on site: 105 feet.

* List each impact separately and identity temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: nu, excavation, dredging,
flooding, drainage, bulkheads, etc.
4. Pond Creation
If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be
included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.
Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands
Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of
draw-down valve or spillway, etc.):
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.):
Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area:
VII. 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.
The existine secondarv road must be improved to meet current safety standards for paved
roads The culvert extensions requested are the minimum necessary to establish an appropriate
typical section for the roadway. Riparian vegetation will be established on disturbed areas
associated with the project construction.
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.
Page 5 of 8
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.
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
littp://li2o.etir.state.ne.us/ticwctlands/strmaide.htnit.
Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
N/A
2. Mitigation may also. be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h'_o.cnr.state.nc.us/wag index.htm. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only)
Page 6 of 8
Does the project involve an expenditure of public funds or the use of public (federal/state/local)
land?
Yes X No ?
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No X
If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes ? No ?
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (DWQ Only)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify. )?
Yes ? No X If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.
Zone* Impact
(square feet) Multiplier Required
Mitigation
1 3
2 1.5
Total
* Zone 1 extends out 30 tect perpendicular from near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an
additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.
If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B.0242 or.0260.
Page 7 of 8
XI. Stormwater (DWQ Only)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
The existing compacted gravel roadway acts as an impervious surface. Paving of the roadway
should eliminate sedimentation from fines associated with gavel surface treatment. The
roadway surface will be 2.8 acres of the 8.4 acres of right of way. Stormwater will diverted
through settling basins or grass lined buffers prior to entering the streams.
XII. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Only)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
XIII. Violations (DWQ Only)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No X
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No X
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
With regard to hazardous spill basins the road is not classified as an arterial route, therefore
hazardous spill basins are not required.

EROSION CONTROL PLAN SHEET
Silt fences and temporary silt ditches shall be installed after clearing and
before grading.
Temporary stone ditch checks shall be installed as soon as ditch-line is
established.
Pipe outlet and inlet protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed.
Silt basins (Type B) will be constructed to the dimension of nine feet by
three feet by two feet unless otherwise noted on plans. (See SB-9 on
dimension sheet)
Seeding and other permanent erosion control measures are to be
implemented as soon as practical.
Temporary rock silt checks (Type B) will be spaced as required by percent
of grade.
PIPE INSTALLATION DOTES
1) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where necessary, rock silt
screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible,
material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the
project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as
possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping
from the project. Where possible, new grade will be below the existing
streambed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
5) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete
installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as
needed on existing measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.

Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1184, Jack Hollifield Road
Yancey County, NC
Dear Mr. Lund:
I have enclosed a straight-line diagram with erosion control plan, a PCN application for
NWP #14, and a location map relative to the proposed project on SR 1184, Jack
Hollifield Road, Yancey County, NC.
F
Jack Hollifield Road is currently a 12-14 feet wide gravel road. Division of Highways
plans to pave the road 18 -feet wide and increase the typical section. Grading will be light
to moderate.
We propose to extend seven existing culverts on UT's to Cane River. Total culvert
extensions will be 105 linear feet. Existing channel morphology will be maintained
upstream and downstream of the culverts. The culverts will be placed below existing
streambed elevation. Riparian vegetation will be reestablished along disturbed areas
associated with the culvert extensions. Stormwater will be diverted through grass-lined
ditches or vegetated buffers prior to entering streams.
No significant effect on federally listed species (threatened or endangered) or their
habitats is anticipated.

typical section for the roadway. Riparian vegetation will be established on disturbed areas
associated with the project construction.
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.
Page 5 of 8
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.
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
http://ii2o.etir.state.nc.us/ticwetlancls/strmi!ide.htnil.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.

EROSION CONTROL PLAN SHEET
Silt fences and temporary silt ditches shall be installed after clearing and
before grading.
Temporary stone ditch checks shall be installed as soon as ditch-line is
established.
Pipe outlet and inlet protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed.
Silt basins (Type B) will be constructed to the dimension of nine feet by
three feet by two feet unless otherwise noted on plans. (See SB-9 on
dimension sheet)
Seeding and other permanent erosion control measures are to be
implemented as soon as practical.
Temporary rock silt checks (Type B) will be spaced as required by percent
of grade.
PIPE INSTALLATION NOTES
1) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where necessary, rock silt
screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible,
material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the
project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as
possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping
from the project. Where possible, new grade will be below the existing
streambed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
5) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete
installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as
needed on existing measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.

Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1184, Jack Hollifield Road
Yancey County, NC
Dear Mr. Lund:
I have enclosed a straight-line diagram with erosion control plan, a PCN application for
NWP #14, and a location map relative to the proposed project on SR 1184, Jack
Hollifield Road, Yancey County, NC.
Jack Hollifield Road is currently a 12-14 feet wide gravel road. Division of Highways
plans to pave the road 18 -feet wide and increase the typical section. Grading will be light
to moderate.
We propose to extend seven existing culverts on UT's to Cane River. Total culvert
extensions will be 105 linear feet. Existing channel morphology will be maintained
upstream and downstream of the culverts. The culverts will be placed below existing
streambed elevation. Riparian vegetation will be reestablished along disturbed areas
associated with the culvert extensions. Stormwater will be diverted through grass-lined
ditches or vegetated buffers prior to entering streams.
No significant effect on federally listed species (threatened or endangered) or their
habitats is anticipated.
By copy of this letter, we request Owen Anderson, North Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to the Corps concerning
C7 -?

July 2, 2001
By copy of this letter, we are asking Ed Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer, to
comment on the above project. Temporary encroachment into the buffer zone of the
Cane River will be required for the project stations 59+00 to 68+00. The stream is
classified as trout and WS-II. A buffer variance will be required.
By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of the application package to
Cynthia Van der Wiele, NC DENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetland Unit for
review and comment. A $200.00 check is enclosed for application processing. Please
forward comments directly to the Corps with copy to Division 13 Environmental Officer.
Your earliest consideration for this request would be greatly appreciated. If you have any
questions or information needs, please contact me at [phone].

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.
The existing secondary road must be improved to meet current safety standards for paved
roads The culvert extensions requested are the minimum necessary to establish an appropriate
typical section for the roadway. Riparian vegetation will be established on disturbed areas
associated with the project construction
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.
Page 5 of 8
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.
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
llttp://h2o.enr.state.nc.tts/ncwetlands/strmaide.html.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
2. Mitigation may also-be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at hap:8112o.enr. state. nc.us,-'w )Jndex.hun. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only)

Yes ? No X
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No X
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
With regard to hazardous spill basins the road is not classified as an arterial route, therefore
hazardous spill basins are not required.

EROSION CONTROL PLAN SHEET
Silt fences and temporary silt ditches shall be installed after clearing and
before grading.
Temporary stone ditch checks shall be installed as soon as ditch-line is
established.
Pipe outlet and inlet protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed.
Silt basins (Type B) will be constructed to the dimension of nine feet by
three feet by two feet unless otherwise noted on plans. (See SB-9 on
dimension sheet)
Seeding and other permanent erosion control measures are to be
implemented as soon as practical.
Temporary rock silt checks (Type B) will be spaced as required by percent
of grade.
PIPE INSTALLABON DOTES
1) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where necessary, rock silt
screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible,
material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the
project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as
possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping
from the project. Where possible, new grade will be below the existing
streambed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
5) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete
installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as
needed on existing measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.

Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1184, Jack Hollifield Road
Yancey County, NC
Dear Mr. Lund:
SECRETARY
I have enclosed a straight-line diagram with erosion control plan, a PCN application for
NWP #14, and a location map relative to the proposed project on SR 1184, Jack
Hollifield Road, Yancey County, NC.
Jack Hollifield Road is currently a 12-14 feet wide gravel road. Division of Highways
plans to pave the road 18-feet wide and increase the typical section. Grading will be light
to moderate.
We propose to extend seven existing culverts on UT's to Cane River. Total culvert
extensions will be 105 linear feet. Existing channel morphology will be maintained
upstream and downstream of the culverts. The culverts will be placed below existing
streambed elevation. Riparian vegetation will be reestablished along disturbed areas
associated with the culvert extensions. Stormwater will be diverted through grass-lined
ditches or vegetated buffers prior to entering streams.
No significant effect on federally listed species (threatened or endangered) or their
habitats is anticipated.

By copy of this letter, we request Owen Anderson, North Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to the Corps concerning
the permit request.
Mr. Steve Lund

July 2, 2001
By copy of this letter, we are asking Ed Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer, to
comment on the above project. Temporary encroachment into the buffer zone of the
Cane River will be required for the project stations 59+00 to 68+00. The stream is
classified as trout and WS-II. A buffer variance will be required.
By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of the application package to
Cynthia Van der Wiele, NC DENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetland Unit for
review and comment. A $200.00 check is enclosed for application processing. Please
forward comments directly to the Corps with copy to Division 13 Environmental Officer.
Your earliest consideration for this request would be greatly appreciated. If you have any
questions or information needs, please contact me at [phone].
Sincerely, P A/r

III. Project Information
Attach a vicinity map clearly showing the location of the property with respect to local
landmarks such as towns, rivers, and roads. Also provide a detailed site plan showing property
boundaries and development plans in relation to surrounding properties. Both the vicinity map
and site plan must include a scale and north arrow. The specific footprints of all buildings,
impervious surfaces, or other facilities must be included. If possible, the maps and plans should
include the appropriate USGS Topographic Quad Map and NRCS Soil Survey with the property
boundaries outlined. Plan drawings, or other maps may be included at the applicant's discretion,
so long as the property is clearly defined. For administrative and distribution purposes, the
USACE requires information to be submitted on sheets no larger than 11 by 17-inch format;
however, DWQ may accept paperwork of any size. DWQ prefers full-size construction
drawings rather than a sequential sheet version of the full-size plans. If full-size plans are
reduced to a small scale such that the final version is illegible, the applicant will be informed that
the project has been placed on hold until decipherable maps are provided.

VII. 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.
The existing secondaryroad must be improved to meet current safety standards for paved
roads The culvert extensions requested are the minimum necessary to establish an appropriate
typical section for the roadway. Riparian vegetation will be established on disturbed areas
associated with the roject construction.
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.
Page 5 of 8
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.
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
litti)://112o.enr.state.nc.us/ticwctlatids/strmuide.htnil.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
2. Mitigation may also- be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http:81,2o.enr.state. nc.us:'Nvni index. hmi. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only)

Yes ? No X
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No X
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
With regard to hazardous spill basins the road is not classified as an arterial route, therefore
hazardous spill basins are not required.

EROSION CONTROL PLAN SHEET
Silt fences and temporary silt ditches shall be installed after clearing and
before grading.
Temporary stone ditch checks shall be installed as soon as ditch-line is
established.
Pipe outlet and inlet protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed.
Silt basins (Type B) will be constructed to the dimension of nine feet by
three feet by two feet unless otherwise noted on plans. (See SB-9 on
dimension sheet)
Seeding and other permanent erosion control measures are to be
implemented as soon as practical.
Temporary rock silt checks (Type B) will be spaced as required by percent
of grade.
PIPE INSTALLATION NOTES
1) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where necessary, rock silt
screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible,
material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the
project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as
possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping
from the project. Where possible, new grade will be below the existing
streambed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
5) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete
installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as
needed on existing measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.

Asheville, NC 28801-5006
Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1184, Jack Hollifield Road
Yancey County, NC
Dear Mr. Lund:
I have enclosed a straight-line diagram with erosion control plan, a PCN application for
NWP #14, and a location map relative to the proposed project on SR 1184, Jack
Hollifield Road, Yancey County, NC.
Jack Hollifield Road is currently a 12-14 feet wide gravel road. Division of Highways
plans to pave the road 18'feet wide and increase the typical section. Grading will be light
to moderate.
We propose to extend seven existing culverts on UT's to Cane River. Total culvert
extensions will be 105 linear feet. Existing channel morphology will be maintained
upstream and downstream of the culverts. The culverts will be placed below existing rn
streambed elevation. Riparian vegetation will be reestablished along disturbed areas _::?: rrn
associated with the culvert extensions. Stormwater will be diverted through grass-lined o
ditches or vegetated buffers prior to entering streams.
No significant effect on federally listed species (threatened or endangered) or their
habitats is anticipated.
By copy of this letter, we request Owen Anderson, North Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to the Corps concerning
the permit request.
Mr. Steve Lund
Page -2 SR 1184, Yancey County
July 2, 2001
By copy of this letter, we are asking Ed Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer, to
comment on the above project. Temporary encroachment into the buffer zone of the
Cane River will be required for the project stations 59+00 to 68+00. The stream is
classified as trout and WS-II. A buffer variance will be required.
By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of the application package to
Cynthia Van der Wiele, NC DENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetland Unit for
review and comment. A 5200.00 check is enclosed for application processing. Please

VII. 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.
The existing secondary road must be improved to meet current safety standards for paved
roads The culvert extensions requested are the minimum necessary to establish an appropriate
typical section for the roadway. Ril2arian vegetation will be established on disturbed areas
associated with the project construction.
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.
Page 5 of 8
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.
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
littp://li2o.etir.state.ne.us/newetlands/strmaide.html.
Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
N/A
2. Mitigation may also- be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at hap://h2o.enr.state.ne.usiN%,n)/index.htm. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only)

XI. Stormwater (DWQ Only)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
The existing compacted gravel roadway acts as an impervious surface. Paving of the roadway
should eliminate sedimentation from fines associated with gravel surface treatment. The
roadway surface will be 2.8 acres of the 8.4 acres of right of way. Stormwater will diverted
through settling basins or grass lined buffers prior to entering the streams.
XII. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Only)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
N/A
XIII. Violations (DWQ Only)

Yes ? No X
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No X
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
With regard to hazardous spill basins the road is not classified as an arterial route, therefore
hazardous spill basins are not required.

EROSION CONTROL PLAN SHEET
Silt fences and temporary silt ditches shall be installed after clearing and
before grading.
Temporary stone ditch checks shall be installed as soon as ditch-line is
established.
Pipe outlet and inlet protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed.
Silt basins (Type B) will be constructed to the dimension of nine feet by
three feet by two feet unless otherwise noted on plans. (See SB-9 on
dimension sheet)
Seeding and other permanent erosion control measures are to be
implemented as soon as practical.
Temporary rock silt checks (Type B) will be spaced as required by percent
of grade.
PIPE INSTALLATION NOTES
1) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where necessary, rock silt
screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible,
material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the
project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as
possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping
from the project. Where possible, new grade will be below the existing
streambed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
5) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete
installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as
needed on existing measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.
