PO Box 1150
Fayetteville, NC 28302
Dear Mr. Gibson:
This is a modification to the 401 Water Quality Certification issued on January 6; 2003. This certification.
supercedes the certification issued on January 6, 2003. You have our approval, in accordance with the attached
conditions and those listed below, to place fill material in 0.09 acres of wetlands and 16 linear feet of streams for the
purpose of replacing existing culverts on SR 2283 in Robeson County. The project shall be constructed in
accordance with your application dated July 16, 2002. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this
fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3375. This certification corresponds to the
Nationwide Permit 14 issued by the Corps of Engineers. 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 valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified below).
Should your project change, you must notify the DWQ 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 remain valid, you must adhere to the
conditions listed in the attached certification.
1.) Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of
Completion Form" to notify DWQ 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 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, P.O. Box 27447,

Dear Mr. Hennessy:

JUN 16 2003
GTION
I would like to reopen the discussion pertaining to your Water Quality Condition (2) in regards to
the proposed improvements to SR 2283 in Robeson County. The Water Quality Condition
required NCDOT to install monitoring gauges upstream of the proposed road crossing to monitor
if the culvert installation drew down on the upstream jurisdictional wetlands. At this time, the
Condition is not valid in my opinion. A finding by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers,
Wilmington District, determined that a permit was not required by Mr. George McFayden, the
downstream property owner, to remove the beaver dam that was impounding the stream.
The following supplemental information is contained within this submittal:
COE Finding of Exemption for Mr. George McFayden
Upstream Photos (06/12/02, 02/28/03 & 06/09/03)
Upstream exposed area Photos (06/12/02, 02/28/03 &06/09/03)
Downstream Photos (06/12/02, 02/28/03 & 06/09/03)
Revised Cross-Section Plan demonstrating Water Surface Elevations
Upon being notified of the work conducted by Mr. McFayden, I went down to SR 2283 for a
field view of the area and found that the water surface elevations receded substantially due to the
beaver dam removal. The field view took place on February 28, 2003, one day after the area
received a substantial rainfall events (02/26/03 -0.710 inch and 02/27/03 -1.010 inch). Water
surface elevations dropped 1.61 foot (98.81 to 97.2), based upon surveyed data 10/21/02.
P. O. Box 1150, Fayetteville, NC 28302-1150 - Telephone [phone] - Fax [phone]
Suppkinental monitoring of the area was conducted on June 9, 2003. On that date, the water
surface elevations upstream and downstream were 96.9, a further drop of 1.91 foot from the
10/21/02 survey. Being that the water surface elevations continue to match, there is definite data
illustrating that the culverts will act in equilibrium.
At this time, I do not believe that any purpose would be served by monitoring this situation and I
request that the Water Quality Condition 2 be removed from the Water Quality Certification.
If you should have any questions or comments regarding this notification, please feel free to
contact me.

Dear Mr. Gibson:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill. material in
0.09 acres of wetlands and 16 linear feet of streams for the purpose of replacing existing culverts on SR 2283 in
Robeson County. The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated July 16, 2002. After
reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number
3375. This certification corresponds to the Nationwide Permit 14 issued by the Corps of Engineers. 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 valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified below).
Should your project change, you must notify the DWQ 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 remain valid, you must adhere to the
conditions listed in the attached certification.
1.) Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of
Completion Form" to notify DWQ 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 Division of
Water Quality upon completion of the project.
2.) NCDOT shall place monitoring gauges in the jurisdictional wetlands located immediately upstream of the new
culverts being installed. If the hydroperiod in the monitored wetlands shows that the soils are not saturated
within the top twelve inches for a minimum of 12.5 percent of the growing season, then the wetlands will be
considered drained. The additional lost wetlands shall be reported to the NC Division of Water Quality
(NCDWQ). Depending on the total area of wetlands drained, compensatory mitigation may be required by the
NCDWQ. Prior to incurring any impacts for the project, NCDOT is required to submit a proposed plan for the
gauge installation and monitoring to, and receive written approval from, the NCDWQ.

Re: Permit Application for proposed improvements to SR 2283 in Robeson County
DWQ No. 021147.
Dear Mr. Gibson:
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 project proposes the replacement of a 36-inch and an 18-inch culvert with 3 60-inch culverts. Please
provide topographic cross-sections for the impact site to verify that the new culverts will not drain the upstream
wetlands.
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.
Sincerely,
P.E.

Dear Mr. Hennessy:
WETLANDS GROUP
WATER. OUA ;T'r qcr? i,n .,
Enclosed, please find seven copies of the topographic survey that was completed in reply to your
review letter dated October 14, 2002.
The topographic survey revealed that the existing 36-inch RCP was installed with its outlet end
elevated above its inlet. On the day of the survey, maintenance crews were just leaving the area
when I arrived to meet the survey crew. Maintenance was once again at the culvert to clean out
beaver debris at the inlet end of the culvert. The previous night there was a rainfall event that
dropped one half inch, more or less. With that small event, the road overtopped.
The slope of Mill Branch was established to be 0.4% across the survey area. The proposed 50LF-
60 inch CMP's were set at the 93.80 elevation based upon the survey data. This allows for the
one-foot of burial and 1.5 foot of cover over top of the culverts.
The Water Surface Elevation was examined at the up and downstream end of the culvert. The
elevation of 98.8 1, both upstream and downstream, revealed that the existing culvert is in a
tailwater condition. In the tailwater condition, the installation of the 3-50LF 60 inch CMP's will
not have an affect upon the Water Surface Elevation upstream of the culvert. The project will not
have a draining effect upon the upstream wetland area.
The design of the proposed culverts had taken into account the appropriate drainage area and the
history of flooding. The proposed culverts will convey expected low flow events while still
allowing Mill Branch to overtop during the less frequent storm events. The flooding of the
roadway will not inconvenience area residents. There are detour options available.
P. O. Box 1150. Fayetteville, NC 28302-1150 -Telephone [phone] -Fax [phone]
The survey did not take into account the 18 inch RCP that is depicted upon the plans. The effect
of the 18-inch RCP is negligible. The culvert was installed in a perched condition, matching the
top of the 36-inch RCP. The culvert was somebody's poor remedy for the lack of flow capacity
of the 36 inch RCP.
In conclusion, the installation of the 3-50LF 60 inch CMP's will not drain the upstream wetlands
associated with Mill Branch. The topographic survey clearly demonstrates that the existing
culvert is in a tailwater condition. NCDOT does not propose the dredging of Mill Branch to
reduce the tailwater condition.

Road Crossing Culvert Replacement SR2283-Robeson County
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to improve SR 2283 from
dirt road status to paved road. In the course of improving the roadway, an existing culvert
crossing must be replaced along SR 2283 in Robeson County. The existing culverts are beyond
repair and will be replaced. Wetland impacts are proposed as the result of this project, which are
necessary to maintain SR 2283 to current safety standards. The existing conditions at the culvert
crossing necessitate the increase of the culvert footprint by 18 linear feet.
The existing culvert crossing along SR 2283 consists of two separate pipes; a 32LF-36" RCP and
a 32LF-18" RCP. To ensure hydraulic efficiency of the crossing, triple 60" CMP's will be
installed at a length of 50 linear feet. Currently, the existing culverts are in an outlet control
situation. There is minimal fill overtop of the pipes which limits the available capacity of the
pipes. The triple 60" CMP's will add hydraulic opening at the crossing, though hydrology moves
along a very low gradient.
RESOURCE STATUS
Maintenance that has an estimated width of 40 feet.
A Wetland Delineation / Natural Resource Inventory was conducted within the Right-of-Way of
SR 2283 in Robeson County, North Carolina. The proposed work will not extend outside the
extent of the Right-of-Way, which is 60 feet in width. Jurisdictional wetlands were identified
within the Right-of-Way. A berm of ditch clean-out material extends out to the Limit of

P. O. Box 1150. Fayetteville, NC 28302-1150 -Telephone [phone]- Fax [phone]
SR 2283 crosses Mill Branch, which is a tributary to Ashpole Swamp. Ashpole Swamp is
tributary to the Lumber River. Approximately 2 miles downstream of the project, Ashpole
Swamp discharges into the Lumber River within South Carolina.
The wetlands along SR 2283 were divided into 4 quadrants (Wet-1, Wet-2, Wet-3 and Wet-4).
There was consistency when viewing Wet-1 and Wet-2 together, and, Wet-3 and Wet-4 together.
This was due to the wetland conditions along both sides of SR 2283. Wet-1 and Wet-2 were on
the north side of SR 2283 (undisturbed wetland area) and Wet-3 and Wet-4 were along the south
side (area disturbed by utility line installation).
Red maple and sweetgum along the edge dominated wetland areas WET-1 and WET-2. As
mentioned, there is a berm that runs along the ditch line of the roadway. Basically, the identified
wetland is located at the toe of slope. Meggett soils were mapped at the crossing. Meggett is a
mapped hydric soil that is nearly level and is poorly drained along stream terraces. Soil pits were
excavated along the toe of slope and were analyzed to determine if the soil was hydric. The hue,
value and chroma was 10YR 4/1 with mottles 10YR 5/6. Soil texture was sandy clay. The soil
was saturated along the edge, and, it was inundated moving away from the roadway. Thus, the
verification of wetland hydrology, even during a severe drought, was not very difficult.
Additional hydrology indicators consisted of water marks, wetland drainage patterns, and water
stained leaves. Wetland delineation flags were hung along the upland / wetland boundary to be
located by an actual field survey.
Wetland areas WET-3 and WET-4 are on the south side of SR 2283. These wetland areas were
disturbed by utility installation. Heavy equipment ruts were observed under the powerlines. With
the limited height of vegetation in the area, the wetland area is cleared from time to time by the
utilities. In this open area, species such as red maple and sweetgum saplings were observed along
with emergent species such as goldenrods, soft rush and poison ivy. Meggett soil was also
mapped on the south side of SR 2283. Once again the soils hue, value and chroma was l OYR 4/1
with mottles. Though I did have to search for an area that was truly undisturbed. Wetland
hydrology was verified by observing saturated soil conditions and viewing wetland hydrology
indicators outside of SR 2283's Right-of-Way. Wetland Delineation flags were hung along the
upland / wetland boundary to be located by an actual field survey.
The installation of the culvert pipes will not erect local residents in regards to the road closure.
With access point at both ends of SR 2283, there will be no on-site detour.
In general, there will be minor impacts proposed as the result of the replacement of the crossing
along SR 2283 in Robeson County. A Nationwide Permit #14 is required for the project due to
the placement of the culvert crossing and wetland impacts (0.09 acre).
Endangered Species: Plants and animals with Federal classification of Endangered (E) or
Threatened (T) are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the Endangered
Species Act of 1973, as amended. As of February 26, 2001, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
lists six federally protected species for Robeson County.
Federallytected Species for Robeson County

REGULATORY APPROVALS
Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army Nationwide Permit 14 and NCDENR
DWQ 401 Water Quality Certification 3376 as required by the above-described activities.
Wetland impacts for the most part were avoided and minimized. Side ditches were eliminated
allowing runoff to sheetflow into the wetland areas (silt fence shall be installed along the toe of
slope until such time that all disturbed area is stabilized). Stabilized shoulders were also reduced
in width (6 ft) to reduce wetland impacts. Minimal impacts shall occur to jurisdictional wetland
areas (0.09 acre), and as such, wetland mitigation is not required.
If you should have any questions, or, need additional information please contact James J. Rerko,
PWS at [phone].

Page 2 of 8
10. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: In
bringing SR 2283 up to current safety standards, i.e. 20 foot paving w/6 foot stabilized
shoulders and 3:1 side slopes, NCDOT must impact a 0.09 acre wetland area. Impacts
were minimized as much as possible. 3:1 side slopes required due to the sandy material
found in the area and the inability to stabilize such material. Dump trucks will haul in
clean fill material. While front end loaders will place the material. Eventually a motor
grader will finish grade the project.
11. Explain the purpose of the proposed work: By Statute, NCDOT is required to pave all
unpaved Secondary Roads. To ensure that the roadway meets current safety standards,
the road will be paved to a width of 20 feet, 6 foot grass shoulders will be installed on
each side and 3:1 side slopes will be provided.

Way available to relocate outside of the wetlands.
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
Page 5 of 8
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.
