Division Engineer NCDOT, Division 5 2612 N. Duke Street Durham, NC 27704 Dear Mr. Nance: You have our approval, in accordance with the conditions listed below, for the following impacts for the purpose of three pipe replacements on SR 2333 (Glory Road) in Wake County. Impact Stream Impacts - Concurrent Stream Wetland Impacts - Riparian Buffer Impacts Locations Permanent Fill Impacts - Temporary Permanent Fill (Square Feet) (Linear Feet) Dewatering- Acres) (Linear Feet) Site 1 36 36 N/A 2,091 (1,297 Zone 1 + 794 Zone 2) Site 2 N/A NIA .04 4,702 (3,385 Zone 1 + 1,317 Zone 2) Site 3 N/A N/A .02 3,473 (2,128 Zone 1 + 1,345 Zone 2) The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated received May 16, 2005. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the stream impacts and riparian buffer impacts described are covered by General Water Quality Certification Numbers 3404 and 3366. This certification corresponds to the Nationwide Permit 14 and the Nationwide Permit 33 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 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.

Director Division of Water Quality An Fmtal 0nnnrhmily/Gffirmatiua Ar4inn Fmnlnvnr _ r n0/ Ramtrlarl/10 Pnet r:nn-mar Panar 2.) All stormwater runoff shall be directed to §heetflow 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.) 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. 12.) Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands must be placed below the elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches, and 20 percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48 inches, to allow low flow passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other structures including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or stream beds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium shall be maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. 13.) If the above condition (#12) is unable to be met, due to bedrock or other limiting features, encountered during construction, please discontinue activities and contact the NCDWQ for directions on hove to proceed. 14.) For projects impacting waters classified by the NC Environmental Management Commission as Trout (Tr), High Quality Waters (HQW), or Water Supply I or II (WSI, WSII) stormwater shall be directed to vegetated buffer areas, grass-lined ditches or other means appropriate to the site for the purpose of pre-treating storm water runoff, and must not be routed directly into streams. Mowing of existing vegetated buffers is strongly discouraged, so that they may be utilized for storm water sheet flow. 15.) No live or fresh concrete shall come into contact with waters of the state until the concrete has hardened 16.) 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. 17.) All work shall be performed during low or normal flow conditions. 18.) All fill slopes located in jurisdictional wetlands shall be placed at slopes no flatter than 3:1. 19.) 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. 20.) For 36 linear feet of stream at Site 1 being impacted due to site dewatering activities, the site shall be graded to its preconstruction contours and revegetated with native vegetation. 21.) We understand that you have chosen to perform compensatory mitigation for impacts to streams and wetlands through the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). The payment to EEP, and the stream and wetland mitigation shall be implemented in accordance with all the Memorandum's of Agreement signed between the North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources and the NC Department of Transportation that govern the practice and function of the EEP. 22.) All 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;pepartment 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.

EASLEY LYNDO TIPPETT GOVERNOR SECRETARY May 12, 2005 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Raleigh Regulatory Field Office 6508 Falls of the Neuse Road, Suite 120 PAYMENT Raleigh, NC 27609 RECEIVED Attention: Mr. Eric Alsmeyer NCDOT Coordinator Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 2333 (Glory Road) from SR 2331 (Jack Mitchell Road) to NC 96 (Zebulon Road) in Wake County. WBS element 5C.092071. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade and pave SR 2333 (Glory Road) from SR 2331 (Jack Mitchell Road) to NC 96 (Zebulon Road) in Wake County. (Figures 1-5). Total project length is 0.99 miles. Transportation and highway laws of North Carolina (G.S. 136-44.6, 136-44.7, 136443A, 136-44.8, and 136-44.9) require the NCDOT to develop annual work programs for construction and maintenance of secondary roads. These general statutes specifically set forth requirements for annual construction and paving of existing unpaved roads. Paving of these roads is performed in priority order as established by the NCDOT for each unpaved road within a given county. This number is based on characteristics of each road, including number of homes, schools, churches, businesses, industries, recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of school bus routes, and value as a thoroughfare. SR 2333 is scheduled to be paved as part of the Secondary Roads Construction Program. Impacts to Waters of the United States Site 1 (STA 25 + 51) - Waters of US Construction at this site will impact an unnamed perennial tributary to the Little River 27-57-(1), Best Usage Classification WS-II HQW NSW; HUC 03020201] (Figure 3) in the Neuse River Basin. The existing structure conveying the creek is 30-inch corrugated metal pipe that is 40 feet long (see Photographs 1 and 2). This pipe will be replaced with an 81" x 59" corrugated metal pipe arch that is 60 feet long with headwall. Permanent impacts at the site associated with the longer pipe include a total of 20 linear feet of existing fill in surface water in addition to 16 ft of rip rap along the stream banks. The Division 5, 2612 N. Duke Street, Durham, NC 27704 Phone: (919) 560-6081 Fax: (919) 560-3371 2: work zone will be temporarily dewatered for approximately 5 days. This will involve the temporary placement of sandbags upstream and downstream of construction. Once the stream has been dewatered, the replacement pipe will be installed. To maintain water flow during construction, water upstream of construction will be temporarily pumped out and conveyed around downstream of the construction. Temporary concurrent impacts to the stream from this activity will result in dewatering 36 linear feet of stream. The sandbags used for dewatering will be removed after construction. Site 2 (STA 28 + 78) - Waters of US Construction at this site will impact an emergent linear wetland supported by an ephemeral channel (Figure 4). This wetland is positioned along the roadside ditch then continues across SR 2333 at an 18-inch reinforced concrete pipe (rcp) that is 36 feet long (see Photographs 3 and 4). The existing pipe at this site will be replaced with a 36" rcp that is 60 feet long with a headwall. Permanent impacts at the site associated with the longer pipe, grading, reworking of ditches, and used of rip rap within the 60 ft right-of- way will include a total of 1,757ft2 (0.04 ac of fill) in wetlands (see Appendix One for USACE Wetland Delineation forms/DWQ rating sheets). No surface water impacts are proposed at this site. Site 3 (STA 56 + 39) - Waters of US Construction at this site will impact an emergent linear wetland supported by an ephemeral channel (Figure 5). This wetland is positioned along the roadside ditch then continues across SR 2333 at a 24-inch reinforced concrete pipe (rcp) that is 33 feet long (see Photographs 5 and 6). The existing pipe at this site will be replaced with a 36" rcp that is 60 feet long with a headwall. Permanent impacts at the site associated with the longer pipe, grading, reworking of ditches, and used of rip rap within the 60 ft right-of- way will include a total of 742ft2 (0.02 ac of fill) in wetlands (see Appendix One for USACE Wetland Delineation forms/DWQ rating sheets). No surface water impacts are proposed at this site. Riparian Buffer Impacts Site I (STA 25 + 51) - Buffers The construction at this site involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject to the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rule. The unnamed perennial tributary to the Little River at Site 1 is depicted on the most recent version of the Zebulon (1968/1981) topographic quadrangle (Figure 1) as well as on the Soil Survey of Wake County (USDA-SCS 1970) (Figure 2). Erosion and sediment control devices along the project are comprised of temporary rock silt checks, temporary silt basins, and temporary silt fence. The NCDOT proposes to install temporary erosion and sediment control devices in Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the riparian buffer. The temporary structures will be removed once the vegetation has been established and then seeded with a seed mixture of fescue and bahia grass. Please note that the placement of these structures are within the 60 right-of-way width and their associated impacts are included within the site total of 1,279ft2 in Zone 1 and 794ft2 in Zone 2 (totaling 36 linear feet of riparian buffer impacts). Based on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, this crossing is EXEMPT. 3 Site 2 (STA 28 + 78) - Buffers The construction at this site involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject to the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rule. The unnamed perennial tributary to the Little River at Site 2 is not depicted on the most recent version of the Zebulon (1968/1981) topographic quadrangle (Figure 1) but does appear on the Soil Survey of Wake County (USDA-SCS 1970) (Figure 2). Erosion and sediment control devices along the project are comprised of temporary rock silt checks, temporary silt basins, and temporary silt fence. The NCDOT proposes to install temporary erosion and sediment control devices in Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the riparian buffer. The temporary structures will be removed once the vegetation has been established and then seeded with a seed mixture of fescue and bahia grass. Please note that the placement of these structures are within the 60 right-of-way width and their associated impacts are included within the site total of 3,385 ft2 in Zone 1 and 1,317 ft' in Zone 2. Based on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, this crossing is EXEMPT. Site 3 (STA 56 + 39) - Buffers The construction at this site involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject to the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rule. The unnamed perennial tributary to the Little River at Site 3 is not depicted on the most recent version of the Zebulon (1968/1981) topographic quadrangle (Figure 1) but does appear on the Soil Survey of Wake County (USDA-SCS 1970) (Figure 2). Erosion and sediment control devices along the project are comprised of temporary rock silt checks, temporary silt basins, and temporary silt fence. The NCDOT proposes to install temporary erosion and sediment control devices in Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the riparian buffer. The temporary structures will be removed once the vegetation has been established and then seeded with a seed mixture of fescue and bahia grass. Please note that the placement of these structures are within the 60 right-of-way width and their associated impacts are included within the site total of 2,128 ft2 in Zone 1 and 1,345 ft'- in Zone 2. Based on the impacts to the riparian buffer at this site, this crossing is EXEMPT. Waters of the U.S./Riparian Buffer Mitigation Avoidance: All wetlands and surface waters not affected by the project will be protected from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or storage of construction supplies will be allowed in wetlands or near surface waters. Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at jurisdictional sites. Strict enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best Management Practices for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced during project construction. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces and the Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts to these sites. Compensatory Miti ag tion: Unavoidable impacts to 20 linear feet of stream (surface water fill) associated with this project will be mitigated (at a 2:1 ratio) by providing 40 linear feet of warm water stream restoration equivalent, in the Neuse River Basin (Hydrologic Cataloging Unit 03020201). Unavoidable impacts to 0.06 acre of non- riverine wetlands associated with this project will be mitigated (at a 1:1 ratio) by providing 0.06 acre of non-riverine wetland restoration equivalent, in the Neuse River Basin (Hydrologic Cataloging Unit 03020101). All compensatory mitigation 4 requirements will be assimilated on a quarterly basis and provided to the Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP) for their acceptance with a copy provided to the USACE for verification and accounting purposes. Protected Species Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed Endangered, and Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the ESA. As of January 29, 2003, there are four federally protected species listed for Wake County. They include bald eagle (Haliaeetus leucocephalus), red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides borealis), dwarf wedgemussel (Alasmidonta heterdon), and Michaux's sumac (Rhus michauxii). Glory Road is not adjacent to open water suitable to provide foraging habitat for the bald eagle. The open areas surrounding these sites do not offer suitable forging or nesting habitat for red-cockaded woodpecker. These UTs to the Little River are small streams and do not provide suitable habitat for mussel fauna. The roadway shoulders along Glory Road are heavily maintained, eliminating the possibility for Michaux's sumac to exist in this area. Additionally, a review of the Natural Heritage Program database (last updated April 2005) revealed no occurrences of protected species within the project area. Therefore, based on lack of suitable habitat observed during the 02/07/05 site visit and the NHP database review, biological conclusions of No Effect have been rendered for each species. Historical Compliance This project has been screened by all pertinent parties to ensure historic compliance. Summary NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 2333 (Glory Road) in Wake County. Permanent impacts, including surface water fill and fill in wetlands, are proposed to Waters of the United States. Unavoidable impacts to 20 linear feet of stream associated with this project will be mitigated (at a 2:1 ratio) by providing 40 linear feet of warm water stream restoration equivalent in the Neuse River Basin (Hydrologic Cataloging Unit 03020201). Unavoidable impacts to 0.06 acre of non-riverine wetlands associated with this project will be mitigated (at a 1:1 ratio) by providing 0.06 acre of non-riverine wetland restoration equivalent, in the Neuse River Basin (Hydrologic Cataloging Unit 03020101). Additionally, impacts to the riparian buffers within the Neuse River Basin are proposed at Sites 1, 2, and 3. Based on the impacts at each site these crossings are EXEMPT. Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army Section 404 Nationwide Permit (NWP) 14, NWP 33, and NCDENR-DWQ Section 401 Water Quality Certification (WQC) No. 3404 and WQC No. 3366 for above-described activities. An automated payment procedure has been implemented between the NCDOT and NCDWQ. This procedure will enable the Division to apply for the 401 WQC without submitting a check for this permit application. This new procedure will provide payment to the NCDWQ by charging the permit application fee of $200.00 directly to the appropriate NCDOT WBS element 5C.092071. A pre-construction notification is Y attached with this request. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Ms. Heather Montague at (919)560-6081. Sincerely, Jon G.

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 January 15, 2002, 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 NCEEP 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. NCDOT proposes to meet mitigation requirements by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP) Compensatory mitigation requirements will be assimilated on a quarterly basis and provided to the EEP for their acceptance with a copy provided to the USACE for verification and accounting purposes. 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP).
