The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your submittal for a 401 Water Quality Certification for the
aforementioned project. Review of your application revealed it lacking necessary information. required for making
an informed permit decision. The permit application was deficient in the following areas:
• The application dated July 23, 2002 does not include any site plans. Please provide additional information that
shows the proposed road design superimposed with any impacted wetlands and/or streams. In addition, the site
plan(s) should be drawn to scale, have an appropriate north arrow, a legend, and all other information that
would enable a DWQ employee the ability to use the plans during a compliance inspection site visit.
Therefore, pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H.0507(a)(5), we will have to place the permit application on hold until we are
supplied the necessary information. Furthermore, until the information is received by the NC Division of Water
Quality, we request (by copy of this letter) that the US Army Corps of Engineers place the permit application on
hold.
Hopefully, we can work together to expedite the processing of your permit application. If you have any questions or
require additional information, please-contact John. Hennessy. at-919-733-5694.

SUBJECT: Grade, drain, base and pave at SR 1208 (Pierce Rd), Onslow County
Dear Mr. Timpy:
Please find enclosed a PCN application from the North Carolina Department of Transportation
for a Nationwide/General Permit from the Army Corp of Engineers for the secondary road
improvement project on SR 1208 (Pierce Rd.) in Onslow County, which is 0.6 miles in length.
The scope of the project will be to grade, drain, base and pave the site to current NCDOT
secondary road standards of 20 ft of pavement and 6 ft of earthen shoulders to improve roadway
safety. To bring this project up to NCDOT standards the existing roadbed will need to be
widened by 12 ft. To minimize impacts to wetlands the ROW has been reduced to 50 ft and road
alignment has been adjusted entirely to the east (right side) to lessen wetland impacts. An
existing 18" RCP pipe that serves as an equalizer pipe for wetlands at Site I will need to be
extended 10 ft (from 40 ft to 50 ft) to accommodate for the widening. A field inspection and GIS
survey has been conducted by this office for this project and a finding of "no effect" for T & E
species, habitat and historical structures has been determined. A site visit was conducted on July
22 with you to verify the wetland lines. Total impacts for this proposed project will consist of
0.08 acres of wetlands associated with Nine Mile Swamp, which are classified as C Sw by the
Division of Water Quality.
By copy of this letter and application, the North Carolina Department of Transportation
(NCDOT) also requests authorization by the North Carolina Division of Water Quality
(NCDWQ) for the corresponding Section 401 Water Quality Certification.

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 9 of 12
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
bttp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmiaide.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). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.ua/wrp/index.htm. If use of

X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ)
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 M No ® 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 feet 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.
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
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.
Strict enforcement of Sedimentation and Erosion control BMP's will be enforced during -
construction to protect wetlands and waters of US
XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ)
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
XUL Violations (required by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 211.0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No 0
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No
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).
None
