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 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 total wetland fills for this project (now or in
the future) exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or in the future) exceed 150 linear feet,
compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H.0506 (h) (6) and (7). 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 implement 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) 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. Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of
the growing season following completion of construction.
3. NCDOT is encouraged to use existing on-site vegetation and materials for stream bank stabilization
and to minimize the use of rip rap.
4. The dimension, pattern, and profile of the stream and floodplain above and below the structure shall .
not be modified by widening the stream channel or reducing the depth of the stream.
5. All work shall be performed during low flow conditions.
6. Heavy equipment must be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channel in order to
minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into the stream.

Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1146 (Holiness Church Road)
Wilkes County, North Carolina
Project Number: 6.762541 (DWQ Permit Fee: $200)
Dear Mrs. Manuele:
The NC Department of Transportation is scheduled to grade, drain, base and pave SR 1146 in
Wilkes County. Total project length is approximately 0.66 miles. Impervious surface area will
not be increased. This project will require the replacement of one (1) wet cross line as shown
below:
1) Replace existing 20'x 24" CMP at station 29+28 with a 40'x 36" CMP.
Miscellaneous rip-rap impacts will total 10 linear ft. or less. New stream impacts = 30 linear feet.
Construction of this project will necessitate impacts to waters of the United States in the Yadkin
River Basin. The above noted wet cross line carries an unnamed tributary to W. Kerr Scott
Reservoir (Class: WS-IV, B, Trout). The Division 11 Environmental Officer reviewed this
project for the presence of threatened and endangered species on May 31, 2002. This project will
have no effect on any federally listed endangered plant or animal species. Historic compliance
work will be scheduled and concurrence with the State Historic Preservation Office will be
obtained if required.
The project impacts are minor in nature and should not remove or degrade existing water quality
uses. Pipe sizes used will be the minimum necessary to create a safe roadway. By utilizing the
erosion control measures outlined in the attachments to this application, downstream water
quality standards will be protected. All appropriate BMPs will be used during construction.

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.
By utilizing the erosion control measures as shown in the attached drawings, adverse impacts to
streams in the area will be minimized Since this is an existing roadway the stream impacts
cannot be avoided However, the replacement pipe length will be the minimum needed to safely
construct the paved roadway All appropriate BMWs will be used during construction.
Page 7 of 12
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
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.

These comments are provided in accordance with the provisions of the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and the North Carolina
Environmental Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 through 113A-10; NCAC 25). The NCDOT
proposes to replace an existing 20' x 24" CUT at Station 29+28 with 40' x 36" CMP.
Riprap impacts will impact 10 linear feet of stream. Total impacts will be 30 linear feet.
Based on our review of the submitted application and our knowledge of the area, we will
not object to project as proposed. Culverts less than 48 inches in diameter should be
buried to a depth equal to or greater than 20% their size. These measurements must be
based on natural thalweg depths. Riprap should be minimized and installed in a manner
so as not to interfere with aquatic life passage during low flow conditions.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project during the early
planning stages. If you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact me
