SUBJECT: Proposed Secondary Road Construction
SR 1375, McIntosh Road
Transylvania County
State Project No. 6.002250 (DWQ Minor Permit Fee $200)
Dear Mr. Hendricks,
Attached are erosion control plans, an application form for a Nationwide Permit, and a county
map section locating SR 1375, McIntosh Road, in Transylvania County. SR 1375 is a gravel road
that we propose to clear, grub, grade, replace/extend pipes, and pave for a distance of 1.00 miles.
Grading will be moderate to heavy.
We are requesting permission to replace and extend pipes in live streams as noted on plans and
the attached pipe schedule. Pipes will be replaced using our standard method of pipe installation
described in the erosion control plans. NCDOT " Best Management Practices for Protection of
Surface Waters" and proper phasing of erosion control items will be used to minimize and
control sedimentation and erosion.
Also by copy of this letter, authorization to proceed under section 401 of the Clean Water Act is
being requested from Mr. John Dorney, Division of Water Quality.
By copy of this letter, we are asking Mr. Owen Anderson, N. C. Wildlife Resources Commission,
to comment to the Corps of Engineers concerning the Nationwide Permit request. Upon review
of the Corps of Engineers we are requesting that Mr. Anderson forward a copy to us (NCDOT)
as well.
By copy of this letter, we are also asking Mr. Ed Ingle, Area Roadside Environmental Engineer
(NCDOT), to comment directly to us on the above project.

See attachments
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
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/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.
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 hllp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wm/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): N/A
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): N/A
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A

A temporary silt fence is commonly used at the toe of a fill section to prevent off-
site sedimentation. It is made of permeable filter fabric buried at the bottom,
stretched and supported by steel posts. The silt fence reduces the water flow while
retaining the sediment. They may also be used to divert water now to protected
outlets. Silt fences need to be checked after each significant rainfall to ensure there
effectiveness. They must be maintained on a regular basis. Silt fences shall not be
installed across streams, ditches, or waterways.
AREAS O USE:
• At toe of fill sections where sediment runoff can be stored and contained
inside the project limits.
DESIGN CRITERIA:
Material With Wire Without Wire
Fabric Type 3 Class A Type 3 Class B
Steel posts length 5 ft 5 ft.
Post spacing 10 ft. 6 ft. maximum

A sift basin type-B is a temporary basin built to collect sediment flo?virng through a
drainage way. The silt basin is built at the base of the ditch Nvith its IenQth being at
least 2 times the width of the basin. The type-]B silt basin is generally built in
conjunction with temporary rock silt checks and other devices that control or slo%v
down water flow. This device must be monitored closely and clwried out on a
regular basis until grass is established along the ditch line and sedimentation is no
longer a problem.
A- EAS O: USE:
In conjunction with temporary rock'silt checks and other devices used in
Lirainagc ditches.

DIGLISH STAHDARD DRAY/I1113 FOR
PIPE INLET SEDIMENT TRAP TYPE 'A' °'i r,
ROCK SILT SCREEN:
2'
A rock silt screen is a low-level dam structure to be used in streams below culvert
sites. Rock silt screens shall be used to trap sediment transported by running water
and shall be placed in the stream below the construction site within the right-of-
way or easement boundary. The rock silt screen utilizes class B stone lined with 45
or #57 stone to produce a ripple-effect in the stream to settle Che larger sediment
particles transported in the stream from the consLrucdon site. The trapped sediment
shall be cleaned out before the device is removed from the stream.
AREAS OF USE:
In live streams below construction sites where co.nstrucdon occurs in or
adjacent to the stream.
In live streams below a culvert constmcdon site.
Where it can be cleaned before it is removed from stream.
DESIGN CRITERIA:
Structural stone - class B stone
Sediment control stone - ` 5 or T'757 stone
Dam height - 1.5 ft. minimum and 3 ft. maximum ( shall not be higher than
1 ft. above normal flow of steam)

4. All culverts required for this project shall be installed in such a manner that the original stream
profiles are not altered (i.e. the depth of the channel must rot he reduced by a widening of the
streambed). Existing stream dimensions are to be mair:eained above and below locations of
culvert extensions. Culverts shall be installed below the `r;arlbed to.allow for fish and other
wildlife movement.
5. All work shall be performed during low flow conditions.
6. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and
maintained to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or
other toxic materials.
7. The presence of equipment in the channels must be minimized. Under no circumstances shall
rock, sand or other materials be dredged from the wetted stream channel under authorization of
this permit, except in the immediate vicinity of the culverts.
8. Existing vegetated buffers shall not be mowed in order to utilize it for storm water sheet flow.
9. Use of rip-rap for bank stabilization is to be minimized; rather, native vegetation is to be planted
when practical. If necessary, rip-rap must be limited to the stream bank below the high water
mark, and vegetation must be used for stabilization above high water.
10. Rock silt screens at culvert outlets shall be removed at project completion.
Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed
"Certificate of Completion" form to notify NCDWQ when all work included in the §401
Certification has been completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form
and return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the NC Division of Water Quality upon
completion of the project.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory
hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing,
send a written petition that conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the
Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This
certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean
Water Act. If you have any questions, please telephone Ms. Cynthia Van Der Wiele at 919-733-9646

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Mr. E.A. Green, P.E., District Engineer
NCDOT Division 14, District 1
4142 Haywood Road
Horseshoe, NC 28742
Dear Mr. Green:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact
90 linear feet of Fork Creek and its tributaries in order to upgrade SR 1375 (McIntosh Road) in
Transylvania County. The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated
February 15, 2002 (received February 18, 2002). After reviewing your application, we have decided
that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 3289 corresponding to the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit Number 14. In addition, you should acquire any other
federal, state or local permits before you proceed with your project including (but not limited to)
Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. This
approval will expire with the accompanying §404 permit unless otherwise specified in the Water
Quality Certification.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application except as
modified below. If you change your project, you must notify us in writing, and you may be required
to send us 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 conditions. If total
wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, or if stream impacts exceed 150
linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H.0506 (h) (6)
and (7). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached
certification and any additional conditions listed below.
1. NCDOT shall use Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters (NCDOT
March 1997) and 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 shall
be planted on all bare soil within 10 days of ground-disturbing activities to provide long term
erosion control.
2. In-stream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are prohibited during the
trout spawning season of October IS through April 15, or other conditions as determined by the
North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, to protect the egg and fry stages of trout from
sedimentation during construction.
3. Stormwater shall be directed to buffer areas or retention basins and not routed directly to streams.
