Dear Mr. Hunsinger:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to
permanently impact 39 linear feet of stream, and temporarily impact 10 linear feet of an unnamed
tributary to Troublesome Creek for the purpose of upgrading SR 2405 (Lovings Road) in
Rockingham County. The project must be constructed in accordance with your application dated
December 11, 2001 (received February 12, 2002). After reviewing your application, we have decided
that this project is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3289. This certification
corresponds to Nationwide Permit 14 issued by the Corps of Engineers. In addition, you must acquire
any other federal, state or local permits before you proceed with your project including (but not
limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations.
This approval will expire with the accompanying §404 permit, unless otherwise specified in the
Water Quality Certification. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the
attached 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 in writing, 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 the proposed fill
is in excess. of 150 linear feet of stream length or 1 acre of wetlands, compensatory mitigation will
required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to be valid, you must
follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any.. additional conditions listed below.
1.. NCDOT shall adhere to Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters (March
1997).
2. Sedimentation and Erosion Control Guidelines for Sensitive Watersheds (15A NCAC 4B .0024)
must be implemented prior to any ground-disturbing activities to minimize impacts to
downstream aquatic resources. Temporary or Permanent herbaceous vegetation must be planted
on all bare soil within 10 days of ground-disturbing activities to provide long term erosion
control, ..
3. The culvert required for this project shall be installed in such a manner that the original stream
profile is not altered (i.e. the depth of the channel must not be reduced by a widening of. the
streambed). Existing stream dimensions are to be maintained above and below locations of
culvert extensions. The pipe shall be installed one foot below the stream to allow for fish and

Dear Ms. Van der Wiele
SUBJECT: Rockingham County, Upgrade of Lovings Road (SR 2405) from an unpaved
secondary road to a paved secondary road.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade Lovings Road
(SR 2405) from an unpaved to a paved secondary road to reduce future maintenance needs and
increase traffic safety. This activity will result in impacts to a stream due to the replacement and
extension of a crossline pipe to facilitate travel lane and shoulder widening. Total project length is
0.8 miles. The replacement, which is occurring in a US water within the Cape Fear River Basin, is
as follows:
Site Existing Pipe Proposed Pipe Impacts (ft)
1 32-feet of 24-inch RCP 60-feet of 24-inch RCP 28 (en), 10 (tmp), 10 (rp)
Cumulative Impacts 28 (en), 10 (tmp), 10 (rp)
RCP = reinforced concrete pipe; CMP = Corrugated metal pipe; CMPA = Corrugated metal pipe arch.
en = enclosure; trop = temporary, rp = rip rap energy dissipaters placed above ordinary high water.

Permanent impacts will result from stream enclosure and placement of rip rap energy dissipaters
above the ordinary high water mark. Rip rap energy dissipaters will be placed on each side of the
newly installed pipe (the downstream energy dissipater will be located upstream of the silt screen).
The placement of a rock silt screen downstream from the pipe outlet will result in 10 linear feet of
temporary impact per crossing. Within 15 working days of the of the pipe replacement activity the
rock silt screen will be entirely removed, and natural stream contours will be restored and seeded.
On-site detours will not be provided due to the short duration of the pipe replacement activity.
Required mitigation is not anticipated, as the impacts do not exceed 150 feet. The project
is not located in a High Quality Water. The project will not impact an Essential Fisheries Habitat.
No Threatened or Endangered species were observed during field surveys conducted by Len Smith
for species known to occur in Rockingham County.
Records from the NCDOT Historic Architect indicate that no National Register, Study List, or
Determination of Eligibility properties are located within the project area.
Secondary impacts will be minimized by strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the
protection of surface waters, restrictions against the staging of equipment in or adjacent to waters of
the US, and coordination with the Division Environmental Officer.
The NCDOT anticipates that the pipe replacement activities will be authorized under Nationwide
Permit 14. This letter is a request for authorization under General Water Quality Certification #3289
from the NC Division of Water Quality. Enclosed, please find seven (7) copies a PCN package for
you review. Construction is anticipated to begin as soon as practicable following authorization and
take 1 day to complete.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact
John Hunsinger at [phone] or Len Smith at [phone]. Your time and effort are
appreciated.

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.
Pipe replacement and widening activities are necessarv to increase travel lane and shoulder width
to current construction standards. Impacts will be minimized by strict enforcement of Best
Management Practices for the protection of wetland and surface waters, restrictions against the
staging of equipment in or adjacent to waters of the US, and coordination with the Division
Environmental Officer.
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://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/iicwetlands/strmgide.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.
A finding of insignificant impact is anticipated. Cumulative impacts are less than 150 feet.
The maximum amount of impact to a single stream is 38 linear feet. No Outstanding
Resource Waters, federally protected species or their habitats, or essential fishery habitats
occur in the project area. The project is not located in a High Quality Water.
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 hM2://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wM/index.htni. If

Dear Mr. Mills:
(Please Distribute to Division/District Maintenance Engineers and DEO):
LYNDO TIPPETT
SECRETARY
The NCDOT Ifistoric Architecture Section has received your county commission-approved 2001-2002
Secondary Roads Rural Paving Program. We have map-checked all submitted roads at the NC State
Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) for the following currently designated historic property types:
National Register (NR), Study List (SL), and Determined Eligible (DOE) properties. Based on the map-
check reviews, we are writing (1) to inform you of the current historic compliance status for your SR
Rural Paving Program; (2) to notify you of the SR projects that definitely will require our fieldwork; (3) to
provide you with information that can be included (or attached) in your cover letter for a Pre-Construction
Notification.
If coordination is required, the NCDOT staff architectural historian will notify the Division/District
Maintenance Engineers to start a mitigation effort involving environmental commitment agreeable to all
parties. Documentation will be coordinated by the staff architectural historian with the Division
Environmental Officer.
When additional SR projects are added to a Program, individual updates will be sent to the
Division/District Maintenance Engineers and the DEO. All status updates can be tracked on the Division
Support website. If there are errors or omissions in this letter or on the website, please e-mail your
NCDOT staff architectural historian or call the Division Coordinator, Richard Silverman, 919-733-7844
x298.
Sincerely,
Richard L. Silverman

HISTORIC ARCHITECTURE STATUS REVIEW SHEET
NCDOT Secondary Roads Rural Paving Projects
The county-commission approved 2001-2002 SR Rural Paving Program for Division 7 has been map-
checked at the NC Historic Preservation Office by NCDOT Architectural Historians. The results of this
map-check should be included in your Pre-Construction Notification application (by attachment of this
document with the applicable SR# circled or by inclusion in your own letter).
Historic Properties Present (NR, SL, or DOE)
Status: THE DIVISION WILL NOT PROCEED until compliance work is completed by NCDOT
Historic Architecture and Concurrence has been obtained from the NC State Historic Preservation
Office
Further Information & Scheduling: Contact your assigned Architectural Historian or go to
http•//www dot state nc us/planning(pe/histarchi/divsunport/
Based on a review of USGS county survey quad maps at the SHPO, the following roads have
properties that are currently designated as historic. Please do not proceed with construction until
compliance work is completed by the Historic Architecture Section. We will be in contact with the
Division/District Maintenance Engineers and the Division Environmental Officer to coordinate this
effort. Please note: not all NR, SL, or DOE properties will necessarily require mitigation. We will
work with the Division and District Maintenance Engineers if environmental commitments are
required. At any time, ifyou are not in agreement with the proposed mitigation efforts, please contact
Richard Silverman, Division Coordinator at 919-733-7844 x298.

No Designated Historic Properties Present (NO NR/SL/DOE)
Status for projects with No Federal Permit: PROCEED
Status for projects with a Federal Permit anticipated: PROCEED WITH CONDITIONS
(see below)
Further Information & Scheduling: Contact your assigned Architectural Historian or go to

Based on a review of USGS county survey quad maps at the HPO, the following roads do not have
properties that are currently designated historic. The Division may proceed with construction with the
following conditions: If the Division applies for a Federal Permit, the NC State Historic Preservation
Office (SHPO) may request additional fieldwork, (usually to identify Potentially Eligible properties).
Typically this request is made for counties where historic resource surveys have not been completed
or are out-of-date. If additional historic properties are identified, further coordination, including
environmental commitments, may be required as part of the project. For SR Projects where no
Federal Permit is to be applied for, no further compliance work is anticipated by NCDOT. Those
projects may proceed unconditionally.
