Dear Mr. Rape:
Works Director

s�
Reference your application of April 24, 1997, for Department of the Army
(DA) authorization to install 8 -inch D.I.P sanitary sewer lines as part of the
"Water and Sewer Improvements Project ", near Lake Fisher, in Kannapolis,
Cabarrus County, North Carolina. The project will require 4 stream crossings
including Cold Water Creek and unnamed tributaries to Cold Water Creek.
Approximately 0.05 acres of stream channel will be impacted by the project.
For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program, the
"December 13, 1996 Federal Register, Final Notice of Issuance, Reissuance, and
Modification of Nationwide Permits (61 FR 65874)" listed nationwide permits.
Authorization, pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was provided
for the discharge of dredged or fill material associated with excavation,
backfill or bedding for utility lines, including outfall and intake
structures, provided there is no change in preconstruction contours. This
nationwide permit does not authorize access roads, temporary or permanent, or
foundations associated with overhead utility lines.
Your work is authorized by this nationwide permit provided it is
accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions and provided
you receive a Section 401 water quality certification from the North Carolina
Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources (NCDEHNR). You should
contact Mr. John Dorney, telephone [phone], regarding water quality
certification. This nationwide permit does not relieve you of the
responsibility to obtain other required State or local approval.
This verification will be valid for 2 years from the date of this letter
unless the nationwide authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. It is
incumbent upon you to remain informed of changes to the nationwide permits,
which will be announced by public notice when they occur. If you commence, or
are under contract to commence, this activity before the date the nationwide
permit is modified or revoked, you will have twelve months from the date of
the modification or revocation to complete the activity under the present
terms and conditions of this nationwide permit.

We have evaluated potential impacts of your activity and we have
determined that your proposal will not affect any endangered species.
When you have completed your work and any required mitigation, please
sign and return the enclosed certification form.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Steve Chapin, Asheville
Field Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone [phone].

Robert W. Johnson

You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in 0.05 acres of
wetlands or waters for the purpose of installing utility lines at City of Kannapolis (Contract XXHI), as you
described in your application dated 28 April 1997. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this
fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3101. This Certification allows you to use
Nationwide Permit Number 12 when it is issued by the Corps of Engineers.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you
change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If total
wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required
as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local
permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control,
Coastal Stormwater, Non - Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this approval will expire
when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification.
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, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611 -7447. This certification and its conditions
are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.

Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Domey at 919- 733 -1786.
