B. Setzer, P.E. Division Engineer N C Department of Transportation 253 Webster Road Sylva, North Carolina 28779 Dear Mr. Setzer: You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact 330 linear feet of three (3) unnamed tributaries to Turnbreeches Creek (40 linear feet of new pipe, temporary dewatering and 290 linear feet of stream relocation), in order to make improvements to NCSR 1703 (Hog Rock Road) in Henderson County. The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated August 18, 2005 (received August 22, 2005), including the environmental comments made in the application letter. Ater reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Nos. 3404 and 3366, corresponding to the U.S. Army Cozps of Engineers Nationwide Permit Numbers i4 aitd 33. In addition, you must 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 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 if 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 rnust follow the conditions listed in the attached certif cation and any additional conditions listed below. 1. Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications governing the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best Management Practices in order to protect surface waters standards: a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed, installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual. b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion control measures must be such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices shall be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects, including contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the project. c. For borrow pit sites, the erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina Surface Mining Manual.

Klimek, P.E. Director Division of Water Quality Michael F. Easley, Governor William G. Koss Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Mr. J. B. Setzer, P.E. August 25, 2005 Page Two d. Any reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the reclamation in accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act. 2. No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the Preconstruction Notice Application. All construction activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of sediment and erosion control Best Management Practices, shall be performed so that no violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur. 3. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the maximum extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within six months of the date that the Division of Land Quality has released the project. 4. In-stream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot buffer zone are prohibited during the trout-spawning season of January 1 through April 15 to protect the egg and fry stages of trout from off-site sedimentation during construction of the roadway. 5. Adequate sediment and erosion control measures should be implemented prior to any ground disturbing activities to minimize impacts to downstream aquatic resources. Seeding for a temporary cover of wheat, millet or similar annual grain or a permanent herbaceous vegetation cover should be planted on all bare soil within 15 days of ground disturbing activities to provide long-term erosion control. Erosion control mating should be used in conjunction with appropriate seeding on disturbed soils in steep slope and riparian areas. Matting should be secured in place with stables or wherever possible, live stakes of native trees. Straw mulch and tall fescue should not be used in riparian areas. Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing season following completion of construction. 6. The new channel design should resemble the reference reach streams in width, depth and gradient. The stream relocation must be conducted in a dry work area and stabilized prior to diverting water into the new channel. Vegetation used for bank stabilization should be native woody species and should include establishment of a vegetated buffer along the relocated channel, to the maximum extent practicable. A transitional phase incorporating coir fiber matting and seedling establishment is allowable. Also, riprap may be allowed if it is necessary to maintain the physical integrity of the stream, but the applicant must provide justification and any calculations used to determine the extent of the riprap coverage requested. 7. If the Division of Water Quality determines that the stream relocation or associated riparian area has become unstable, the stream shall be repaired or stabilized using only natural channel design techniques, if possible. Vegetation in the riparian area shall be maintained and/or replaced, according to the approved plans. Riprap or other structures may only be used if required by the Division of Land Resources or a Delegated Local Program. All repair designs must be submitted to and receive written approval from the Division of Water Quality before the repair work is performed. 8. Culverts that are less than 48-inch in diameter should be buried to a depth equal to or greater than 20% of their size to allow for aquatic life passage. Culverts that are 48-inch diameter or larger should be buried at least 12 inches below the stream bottom to allow natural stream bottom material to become established in the culvert following installation and to provide aquatic life passage during periods of low flow. This may require increasing the size of the culvert to meet flow conveyance requirements. If any of the existing pipes are perched, they shall be removed and replaced, and re-installed correctly, unless demonstrated that this is topographically unfeasible. 9. Rock check dams at culvert outlets should be removed at the project completion to avoid impeding the movement of aquatic life. 10. The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream, above and below the culverts, should not be modified by widening the stream channel or reducing the stream depth. Disturbed floodplains and streams should be restored to natural geomorphic conditions. 11. Stormwater shall be directed to vegetated buffer areas, grass lined ditches or other means appropriate to the site for the purpose of pre-treating stormwater runoff, and must not be routed directly into streams. Mowing of existing vegetated buffers is strongly discouraged, so that they may be utilized for stormwater diffuse flow. 12. Removal of vegetation at the stream crossing and adjacent to streams should be minimized. Native trees and shrubs (e.g. Rhododendron, dog hobble, willows, alders, sycamores, dogwoods, black walnut and red maple) should be planted along the streambank to reestablish the riparian zone and to provide long-term erosion control in the vicinity of the road crossing and along the streams within dedicated rights of way. 13. Any riprap placed for bank stabilization should be limited to the streambank below the high water mark, and vegetation should be used for stabilization above the high water elevation. Riprap should not be place in stream channels in such a manner that it impedes aquatic life passage. i Mr. J. B. Setter, P.E. August 25, 2005 Page Three 14. Heavy equipment must be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channel in order to minimize sedimentation and to reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into the stream. 15. 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. 16. Excavation of the stream crossings and relocations should be conducted in the dry, if possible. Sandbags, cofferdams, flexible pipe or other diversion structures should be used to minimize excavation in flowing water. 17. If concrete is used during culvert construction (e.g., headwalls), a dry work area should be maintained to prevent direct contact between curing concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured concrete should not be discharged to surface waters due to the potential for fish kills. 18. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface waters is strictly prohibited. 19. 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. In-stream dredging has catastrophic effects on aquatic life, and disturbance of the natural form of the stream channel will likely cause downstream erosion problems, possibly affecting other landowners. 20. This certification does not authorize the discharge of waste rock and dirt into the stream or riparian zone except for permitted areas associated with the culvert extensions. 21. All work shall be performed during low flow conditions (below bankfull). 22. 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 Transportation Permitting Unit of the NC Division of Water Quality upon completion of the project. The NCDOT is strongly advised to send in photographs upstream and downstream of each structure to document correct installation. 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, which 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 Mr. Mike Parker of the Asheville Regional Office at 828.296.4500. Sincerely, Alan W.

EASLEY GOVERNOR August 18, 2005 Ms. Angie Pennock, NCDOT Regulatory Project Manager U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 151 Patton Avenue, Room 208 Asheville, NC 28801-2714 Subject: Nationwide 14 & 33 Permit Application SR 1703 -Hog Rock Road Henderson County LYNDO TIPPETT SECRETARY State Project No. 140.045115 (DWQ Major Permit Fec $475) Dear Ms. Pennock: The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is proposing to widen, grade, drain, and pave SR 1703, Hog Rock Road, in Henderson County. This proposal entails widening and paving the existing gravel road to a standard 18-foot roadway. The work is necessary to improve safety and reduce maintenance cost. Funds have been allocated for this project, and NCDOT would like to perform this work during the 2005-06 paving season. An onsite investigation was conducted on April 15, 2005, with representatives of NCDOT, the US Army Corps of Engineers, and the NC Division of Water Quality to assess impacts and make jurisdictional calls concerning the roadside seeps. I am sending astraight-line diagram with the proposed erosion control and construction limits along this project. In addition, I am sending a typical section of the road, cross sections, drawings for pipe culvert replacements, the proposed channel change, as well as a marked county map and USGS quad map. Natural channel design techniques (pattern, dimension, and profile) will be used when relocating the stream. Please find the design enlcosed. The stream relocation will be constructed in a dry work area and will be seeded with native vegetation and stabilized with coir fiber matting before water is diverted. ~'Ve propose to install the new culverts slightly below the existing streambed elevations where bedrock is not encountered to minimize impacts to aquatic habitats and allow the existing stream gradients to remain as unchanged as physically possible. The North Carolina Natural Heritage Database was checked for records of threatened and endangered species. There are no records for threatened or endangered species for the unnamed tributary of Turnbreeches Creek. Additionally, there are no records for the entire Turnbreeches Creek watershed. The unnamed tributary is small (2-3 feet wide). The impacts from the culvert extensions and channel relocations will be minimal. For these reasons, there will be "no effect" on threatened or endangered species. Impacts to historic or cultural resources are not anticipated. If the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and the Office of State Archaeology determines that further investigations are required, NCDOT will conduct the appropriate site investigations and obtain compliance from SHPO prior to project construction. The best management practices will be used to minimize and control sedimentation and erosion on this project. The construction foreman will review all erosion control measures daily to ensure sedimentation and erosion is being effectively controlled. If the planned devices are not functioning as intended, they will be immediately replaced with better devices. The rock silt screens and other erosion control devices will be in place prior to pipe culvert construction and will remain in place until the project is stabilized. Impacts to Waters of the United States In order to construct the project in accordance with our current secondary road standards, it will be necessary to impact waters of the United States in the Broad River Basin. Specifically, NCDOT is requesting to extend/replace five metal culverts in unnamed tributaries to Turnbreeches Creek (DWQ Class: C, Tr) and relocate a small roadside stream. All of the unnamed tributaries have well defined channels, which lack vegetation and have substrates composed of cobble, gravel, and sand/silt. Therefore, we believe the unnamed tributaries are under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers. These small streams have unstable channels due to recent storm damage and are undermining the road. Listed below is a summary of the proposed impacts.

Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ^ uplands ^ stream ^ wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, imgation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): N/A Size of watershed draining to pond: N/A Expected pond surface area: N/A VII. Lnpact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) 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 Page 5 of 9 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. Water will be diverted durinu both the channel relocation, and the pipe replacement process to minimize sedimentation The pipes will be placed below the stream bottoms to minimize fragmentation of aquatic habitat Bottomless pies were studied for this project, but their application is not possible in this case. 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 Beater 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 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/strm~ide.html. 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 Pagc G of 9 Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer multipliers. - - - Zone* uarpe ~ Multiplier Mi~uah'on 1 3 2 1.5 Total • Zonc 1 extends out 3U feet perpendicular from near bank of channel; Lone "l extends an additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.

Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ) Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federaUstate) funds or the use of public (federaUstate) land? Yes ® No ^ If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)? Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA coordinator at (919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation. Yes ^ No If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ^ No ^ IX. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ) It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide justification for these impacts in Section VII above. Alt proposed impacts must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the applicant's discretion. Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify N/A )? Yes ^ No ®If you answered "yes", provide the following information: Page 7 of 9 It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).

These areas will require stage seeding and mulching. • Begin grading of roadway ditches. Place erosion control measures along roadway ditches as grading progresses and conditions allow. • Seed and mulch all disturbed areas as soon as any phase of grading is completed. (Note there are 15 working.days/30 calendar days to complete seeding and mulching. A working day is defined as a day exclusive of Saturday or Sunday during which weather conditions or soil conditions permit land-disturbing activity.) • Clean out and/or rework all temporary erosion control measures after any significant rainfall event (or as otherwise needed). These measures should be maintained until a permanent vegetative.cover is established. Wet Pipe Installation Schedule • Install erosion control devices. • Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the project. • Prepare pipe foundation while taking care to limit material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the project. Where possible new grade should be below the existing streambed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone (especially in Trout and HQW waters). • Place new pipe and compact fill. • Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as needed on existing measures. • Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.

Site 4 Cross Pipe Outlet Station 22+45 HOG ROCK ROAD (SR 1703) HENDERSON COUNTY STREAM RELOCATION AUGUST 12, 2005 TABLE OF CONTENTS Stream Relocation Plan 2 Location mks 8 Summary Table 13 Soil properties 1~ UT Turnbreeches Creek Plan view 19 Profile existing and proposed 2D Proposed cross section 22 Cross vane detail 23 Stream Habitat Evaluation 24 Stability Evaluation UT Rocky Fork (reference reach) Plan View 28 Profiles 29 Cross sections 33 Pebble counts 36 Stream Habitat Evaluation 42 Stream classification form 46 The proposed location of the stream will place it adjacent to the forested hillside on the southwest side of the road. Existing and proposed slopes on the side opposite the road are in the range of 1:1. A 9 foot width is available within the right of way beside the road. Biological Community Types Assessments were made for comparison of the vegetative community types for the reference reach and the riparian area immediately upstream of the existing stream to be relocated. Habitat is poor in the existing stream to be relocated and the stream is intermittent or subsurface above the existing road. Benthic macroinvertertebrates were not assessed, however, habitat will be closely matched to the reference reach. The reference reach habitat includes cobbles and extensive leaf mats in the stream bed. Morphological Stream Classification The Rosgen stream classification system was used to classify the stream to be relocated and the reference reach. Road maintenance impacts and a preponderance of road materials in the stream bed renders speculative many of the stability assessments and channel measurements, but a reconnaissance of Turnbreeches Creek and the area immediately upstream of the segment to be relocated supported the soil type and the similarity with the reference reach. A table of morphological characteristics and supporting data is provided in the following pages. Although no cross section was established on the stream to be relocated due to road maintenance influences, a classification of G4 would apply at the time of inspection. The potential stream type is Boa. Stability Enhancements The stability of the existing stream was evaluated using Near Bank Stress and Bank Erosion Hazard Index, from Wildland Hydrology publications. A Pfankuch Channel Stability form was also completed for comparison, from "Stream Reach Inventory and Channel Stability Evaluation", US Department of Agriculture Forest Service/ Northern Region. These procedures indicate that total erosion can be reduced by an order of magnitude. Most of the sediment supply on the existing stream is from road materials. Aside from establishing a stable channel, pavement of the roadway and constructing a shoulder will reduce the amount of sediment that reaches the channel. The lateral stability prediction for the reference reach included factors indicating moderate instability. These were primarily tight meanders due to site constraints and the steep side slopes that originate immediately at the bankfull width. These can be reduced or eliminated in the proposed stream relocation by establishing stable meanders and by constructing a bankfull bench adjacent to steep side slopes as illustrated in the cross section drawing. Rosgen recommends a bankfull bench on the outside of bends of at least 10% to 15% of the bankfull width. The cross section drawing uses 1.5 feet, which is 37.5% of the bankfull width. The vertical stability prediction for the reference reach indicated stability with a slight tendency for degradation, however, this tendency was also due to bank height ratio, which will be rectified in the proposed stream relocation. Approved Kentucky Bluegrass Cultivars: Adelphi Baron Bristol Challenger Columbia Fylking Glade Kenblue Merit Plush Ram I Rugby Sydsport Touchdown Vantage Fertilizer shall be 10-20-20 analysis. Upon written approval of the Engineer, a different analysis of fertilizer may be used provided the 1-2-2 ratio is maintained and the rate of application adjusted to provide the same amount of plant food as a 10-20-20 analysis. Temporary Seeding: Fertilizer shall be the same analysis as specified for "Seeding and Mulching" and applied at the rate of 400 pounds (450kg) and seeded at the rate of 50 pounds per acre (SSkg per hectare). German Millet or Browntop Millet shall be used in summer months and rye grain during the remainder of the year. The Engineer will determine the exact dates for using each kind of seed. Fertilizer Top dressing: Fertilizer used for top dressing shall be 16-8-8 grade and shall be applied at the rate of 500 pounds per acre (560 kg per hectare). Upon written approval of the Engineer, a different analysis of fertilizer may be used provided the 2-1-1 ratio is maintained and the rate of application adjusted to provide the same amount of plant food as 16-8-8 analysis. Supplemental Seeding: The kinds of seed and proportions shall be the same as specified for "Seeding and Mulching", and the rate of application may vary from 25# to 75# per acre (28kg to 85kg per hectare). The actual rate per acre (hectare) will be determined by the Engineer prior to the time of top dressing and the Contractor will be notified in writing of the rate per acre (hectare), total quantity needed, and areas on which to apply the supplemental seed. Minimum tillage equipment, consisting of a sod seeder shall be used for incorporating seed into the soil as to prevent disturbance of existing vegetation. A clod buster (ball and chain) may be used where degree of slope prevents the use of a sod seeder. Mowing: The minimum mowing height shall be 6 inches (150 mm). Native Grass Seeding and Mulching shall be performed in accordance with Section 1660 of the Standard Specifications and vegetative cover sufficient to restrain erosion shall be installed immediately following grade establishment. Stream Bank Reforestation Materials: Stream bank reforestation will be planted in areas designated on the plans and as directed by the Engineer. See the stream bank reforestation detail sheet. Type I Stream bank Reforestation shall be live stakes, planted along both stream banks. Coir fiber mat shall be installed on the stream banks where live staking is to be planted as shown on the stream bank reforestation detail sheet and in locations as directed by the Engineer. Work includes providing all materials, excavating and backfilling, and placing and securing coin fiber mat. Provide matting to meet the following requirements: 100 % coconut fiber (coir) twine woven into a high strength matrix. Thickness - 0.30 in. minimum. (7.6 mm) approximately 15 degrees following installation. Any stakes that are split or damaged during installation shall be removed and replaced. Type II Stream Bank Reforestation shall be bare root seedlings. The seedlings shall be planted as soon as practical following permanent seeding and mulching. The seedlings shall be planted from top of bank out, along both sides of stream, as designated on the plans. Seedlings shall be 12-18 inches (300-460mm) tall. Root dip: The roots of reforestation seedlings shall be coated with a slurry of water, and either a fine clay ("kaolin") or a superabsorbent that is made to be used as a bare root dip. The type, mixture ratio, method of application, and the time of application shall be submitted to the Engineer for approval. With the approval of the Engineer, seedlings maybe coated before delivery to the job or at the time of planting, but at no time shall the roots of the seedlings be allowed to dry out. The roots shall be moistened immediately prior to planting. Seasonal Limitations: Stream bank reforestation shall be planted from November 15 through March 15. Potential Problems One of the primary constraints associated with this project is the lack of available width for flood plain and buffer requirements. A flood plain is proposed between the proposed stream location and the roadway to minimize impacts to the stream from the roadway. The left bank of the proposed stream will be adjacent to the existing or proposed slope of the hillside. Where this slope is to be disturbed, stability will have to be assured by placing erosion control matting on all slopes 2:1 or greater. Coir fiber matting will be used below the bankfull water level. !~:~ f' .~ ~~ ~~~- '--J ~v~l f./ i,~.~ ~, itQ~w ~ ~` 1'.\' ~~/ \•l r ~3~~ ~ ~1 r +rl '~ rf r: f~. 1T ,`~ ~ ~ ~Z ";.11~:.:.J~//~ i ~J~~'>..~ ` L .~ ~"i ~X ~~~ ~~~i,~\ v V ~.JI (~ (\~ {'t .. _ ~~) ~t .: i ~~ -' t--~~~~~~ / ~'~ 4~Lfi~_b~.j4~ `~ '•v~e .~ pit, _ 1 '1 `~ ( \~ ~S~~ ~1 r ~'/~~/~ ~ '7' ~~~ ~\.. y nit de ~, + • , ~ • ~ ___.~~ -., ~., . ~:., .~..:_;1 r ., .,~ ` ~ ~ ~(~ l 1~ - /~ .

Ross Jr., Secretary North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Alan W. Klimek, Y.E. Director Division of Water Quality Subject: Permit Application for Proposed Stream Relocation DWO Project No. 050741 NCSR 1703 Polk County Dear Mr. Setzer: The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your submittal fora 401 Water Quality Certification for the subject project. Review of your application revealed it was lacking necessary information required for making an informed permit decision. The permit application was deficient in the following areas: • A stream mitigation/relocation plan was not submitted with the permit application. Please provide a stream relocation plan for this project. Therefore, pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0507(a)(5), we will have to place the permit application on hold until we receive the requested information. Furthermore, until the NC Division of Water Quality receives the information, we request (by copy of this letter) that the US Army Corps of Engineers place the permit application on hold. If you have any question or require additional information, please contact Mike Parker at 828-296-4500. Sincerely, Alan W.

EASLEY GOVERNOR Apri127, 2005 Ms. Angie Pennock, NCDOT Regulatory Project Manager U.S. Army Corps of Engineers 151 Patton Avenue, Room 208 Asheville, NC 28801-2714 LYNDO TIPPETT SECRETARY Subject: Nationwide 14 & 33 Permit Application SR 1703 -Hog Rock Road Henderson County State Project No.14C.045115 (DWQ Major Permit Fee $475) Dear Ms. Pennock: The North Cazolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is proposing to widen, grade, drain, and pave SR 1703, Hog Rock Road, in Henderson County. This proposal entails widening and paving the existing gravel road to a standard 18-foot roadway. The work is necessary to improve safety and reduce maintenance cost. Funds have been allocated for this project, and NCDOT would like to perform this work during the 2005-06 paving season. An onsite investigation was conducted on April 15, 2005, with representatives of NCDOT, the US Army Corps of Engineers, and the NC Division of Water Quality to assess impacts and make jurisdictional calls concerning the roadside seeps. I am sending astraight-line diagram with the proposed erosion control and construction limits along this project. In addition, I am sending a typical section of the road, cross sections, drawings for pipe culvert replacements, the proposed channel change, as well as a marked county map and USGS quad map. Natural channel design techniques (pattern, dimension, and profile) will be used when relocating the stream. The stream relocation will be constructed in a dry work azea and will be seeded with native vegetation and stabilized with coir fiber matting before water is diverted. We propose to install the new culverts slightly below the existing streambed . elevations where bedrock is not encountered to minimize impacts to aquatic habitats and allow the existing stream gradients to remain as unchanged as physically possible. The North Carolina Natural Heritage Database was checked for records of threatened and endangered species. There are no records for threatened or endangered species for the unnamed r,,,,~ --;,!~ i ~'^ C E !'`l L= D tributary of Turnbreeches Creek. Additionally, there are no records for the entire Turnbreeches Creek watershed. The unnamed tributary is small (2-3 feet wide). The impacts from the culvert extensions and channel relocations will be minimal. For these reasons, .there will be "no effect" on threatened or endangered species. Impacts to historic or cultural resources are not anticipated. If the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and the OiIice of State Archaeology determines that further investigations are required, NCDOT will conduct the appropriate site investigations and obtain compliance from SHPO prior to project construction. The best management practices will be used to minimize and control sedimentation and erosion on this project. The construction foreman will review all erosion control measures daily to ensure sedimentation and erosion is being effectively controlled. If the planned devices are not functioning as intended, they will be immediately replaced with better devices. The rock silt screens and other erosion control devices will be in place prior to pipe culvert construction and will remain in place until the project is stabilized. Impacts to Waters of the United States In order to construct the project in accordance with our current secondary road standazds, it will be necessary to impact waters of the United States in the Broad River Basin. Specifically, NCDOT is requesting to extend/replace five metal culverts in unnamed tributaries to Turnbreeches Creek (DWQ Class: C, Tr) and relocate a small roadside stream. All of the unnamed tributaries have well defined channels, which lack vegetation and have substrates composed of cobble, gravel, and sand/silt. Therefore, we believe the unnamed tributaries are under the jurisdiction of the US Army Corps of Engineers. These small streams have unstable channels due to recent storm damage and are undermining the road. Listed below is a summary of 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. Water will be diverted during both the channel relocation and the pipe replacement process to minimize sedimentation The pipes will be placed below the stream bottoms to minimize fragmentation of aquatic habitat Bottomless pipes were studied for this protect, but their a lication is not ossible in this case. 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 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/strmaide.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 Page 6 of 9 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 Ecosystem Enhancement Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at (919) 715-0476 to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior to submittal of a PCN.

These areas will require stage seeding and mulching. • Begin grading of roadway ditches. Place erosion control measures along roadway ditches as grading progresses and conditions allow. • Seed and mulch all disturbed areas as soon as any phase of grading is completed. (Note there are 15 working days/30 calendar days to complete seeding and mulching. A working day is defined as a day exclusive of Saturday or Sunday during which weather conditions or soil conditions permit land-disturbing activity.) • Clean out and/or rework all temporary erosion control measures after any significant rainfall event (or as otherwise needed). These measures should be maintained until a permanent vegetative.cover is established. Wet Pipe Installation Schedule • Install erosion control devices. • Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible, material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the project. • Prepare pipe foundation while taking care to limit material and sediment from entering the stream and/or escaping from the project. Where possible new grade should be below the existing streambetl. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone (especially in Trout and HQW waters). • .Place new pipe and compact fill. • Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as needed on existing measures. • Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible. m 17 f6 N O _ 7 C C ~ ~ C ~ ~ ~ E ~, ~ ~ ~ ~ a ~ v ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ .$ o ~ m _ ~_ C ~ ~ '- ~ ~ ~ m _~ ~ r ~ .D ~v r ~ o ~ m c 3 3 d ~ m 3 c °~ o °~ ~ c '$ N ~ .0,. ~ ~ O y $$ a ~ a ~ ~ « rJ o ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ b E mJZ z Q~ 11 y COC..~ N ~ ~ N v N ~ ~ ~ ~ ~mm t~ y ~ ~ W y = 4 = L ~ a B x 4u ` ' 3 ~ ~ N ~ ~~'°o ~ U ~~Q ~~ c ~gv~g~~a aiUOn.~v~ia ~yqj.
