Dear Mr. Lassiter:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, for the following impacts
to 404 jurisdictional wetlands and Neuse Riparian Buffers for the purpose of replacing a pipe on an unnamed
tributary of the Trent River as necessary for the paving and widening of SR 1324 in Jones County.
Impacts Approved:
The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all of the other specific and general conditions are
met. No other impacts are approved including incidental impacts:
Wetland Impact
Site Number Type of Impact Area of Impact
Area 1 Fill 32 ft2
Area 2 Fill 48 ft
Area 3 Fill 5 ft
Area 4 Fill 5
Total: 90 ft 0.002 Acres
Stream / Buffer Impact Type of Impact Area of Impact
Stream Site 1 Pipe replacement/extension 10 ft.
Stream Site 1 Excavation 82 ff'
Riparian Buffer Zone 1 90
Riparian Buffer Zone 2 0
The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated received July 22, 2005. After reviewing
your application, we have decided that these impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification Number
3404. This certification corresponds to the Nationwide Permit 14 issued by the Corps of Engineers. This approval
is also valid for the Neuse River Buffer Rules 15A NCAC 2B .0233. 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 NCLV 1 suaii compici.c auu ietuiu we enclvacu =.u= .....:=..u .,_
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 40I/Wetlands Unit of the Division of
Water Quality upon completion of the project.
2.) All stormwater runoff shall be directed to sheetflow through stream buffers at nonerosive velocities, unless
approved otherwise by this certification.
3.) During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in waters of the U.S., or
protected riparian buffers.
4.) Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing
season following completion of construction.
5.) The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream above and below the crossing should not be modified by
widening the stream channel or reducing the depth of the stream. Disturbed floodplains and streams should be
restored to natural geomorphic conditions.
6.) Any riprap used must not interfere with thalweg performance and aquatic life passage during low flow
conditions.
7.) 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.
8.) Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface
waters is prohibited.
9.) The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary located within the construction corridor approved by this
authorization shall be clearly marked by highly visible fencing prior to any land disturbing activities. Impacts
to areas within the fencing are prohibited unless otherwise authorized by this certification.
10.) There shall be no excavation from or waste disposal into jurisdictional wetlands or waters associated with this
permit without appropriate modification of this permit. Should waste or borrow sites be located in wetlands or
stream, compensatory mitigation will be required since it is a direct impact from road construction activities.
11.) Pursuant to NCACI5A 2B.0233(6), sediment and erosion control devices shall not be placed in Zone 1 of any
Neuse Buffer without prior approval by the NCDWQ. At this time, the NCDWQ has approved no sediment and
erosion control devices in Zone 1, outside of the approved project impacts, anywhere on this project. Moreover,
sediment and erosion control devices shall be allowed in Zone 2 of the buffers provided that Zone 1 is not
compromised and that discharge is released as diffuse flow.
12.) 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.
13.) No live or fresh concrete shall come into contact with waters of the state until the concrete has hardened

14.) The presence of equipment in the channels must be minimized. Under no circumstances must 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.
15.) All work shall be performed during normal or low flow conditions.
16) All fill slopes located-in jurisdictional wetlands shall be placed at slopes no riatter than 3: i.
17.) A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be posted on the construction site at all times. In addition, the
Water Quality Certification and all subsequent modifications, if any, shall be maintained with the Division
Engineer and the on-site project manager.
18.) All protected riparian buffers impacted by the placement of temporary fill or clearing activities shall be restored
to the preconstruction contours and revegetated with native woody species upon completion of the project
construction. A post-construction as-built with the restoration activities included shall be submitted to the
DWQ no later than 60 days after the project is closed out by the Department of Transportation.
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,
Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. 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 contact Garcy Ward at 252-948-3922.
Sincerely,
Alan

Dear Sir,
Description of Project: Division Two is planning to replace an existing 45"x72"x42'
Corrugated Aluminum Pipe,Arch with a 96"x52' Corrugated Aluminum Pipe on SR 1324,
Wooten Road, in Jones County. The project is located in the Neuse River Basin. It will be
placed in an existing pipe location. The proposed pipe is 10' longer than the existing pipe.
NCDOT has avoided and minimized the impacts to jurisdictional resources to the greatest
extent possible as described in the NWP 14 permit application. The remaining impacts to
jurisdictional resources will be compensated by mitigation provided by the EEP Program.
The Wetland impacts total 90 square feet(0.002 acres) of riverine bottomland hardwood forests.
We propose to provide compensatory mitigation for the wetland impacts by using the EEP for
the 0.002 acres of 404 Riverine-Wetland impacts. This mitigation is required by NCDOT to
satisfy permit requirements for 404 Wetland Impacts.
If you have any questions or need additional information, please call Jay Johnson at 252-830-
3490. Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.
Sincerely:

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/sti-mgide.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.
