Tar River and one 23 KV 4 inch over ea electrical line over Kennedy Creek.- The cable under the Tar River will a j-e e on each side of the channel and a trench will probably be excavated with a clam shell across the width of the channel. rr H IX. Narrative description Carolina Power & Light Company has been ordered by its commission to supply electricit to National Spinning Company in Washington, N.C. To provide this power it is necessary for the company to bring power lines across from the south side of the Tar River. A cable will be brought to the southern river edge by overhead poles along a deserted railroad bed. Once the 4 inch cable reaches the river edge it will be jetted approximately 6 inches deep into the river bottom for a distance of just less than 800 feet. When the cable reaches the 100 foot wide river channel it will be placed in a trench which will be excavated by a clam shell. This section of cable will be placed approximately 6 inches below the river bottom. During excavation the spoils from the trench will be placed beside the trench on the river bottom. The cable will be placed and spoils will be placed back into the trench. Once the.cable reaches the northern side of the channel it will again be jetted into the river bottom approximately 6 inches deep for a distance of approximately 900 feet to the north side of the river. The cable will then again be placed on overhead poles across Kennedy Creek and on to National Spinning Company.' Kennedy Creek is + 343 feet wide at the point where the cable will cross. X. Anticipated impacts The project as proposed should have a minimal environmental impact. Some short term turbidity will exist during project activity especially during the excavation of the trench across the river channel. Submitted by David L.

That this permit does not authorize or approve the construction of particular structures, the authorization or approval of which may require authorization by the Congress or other agencies of the Federal Government. q. That if and when the permittee desires to abandon the activity authorized herein, unless such abandonment is part of a transfer procedure by which the permittee is transferring his interests herein to a third party pursuant to General Condition t hereof, he must restore the area to a.condition satisfactory to the District Engineer. r. That if the recording of this permit is possible under applicable State or local law, the permittee shall take such action as may be necessary to record this permit with the Register of Deeds or other appropriate official charged with the responsibility formaintaining records of title to and interests in real property. s. That there shall be no unreasonable interference with navigation by the existence or use of the activity authorized herein. t. That this permit may not be transferred to a third party without prior written notice to the District Engineer, either by the transferee's written agreement to comply with all terms and conditions of this permit or by the transferee subscribing to this permit in the space provided below and thereby agreeing to comply with all terms and conditions of this, permit. In addition, if the permittee transfers the interests authorized herein by conveyance of realty, the deed shall reference this permit and the terms and conditions specified herein and this permit shall be recorded along with the deed with the Register of Deeds or other appropriate official. II. Special Conditions: (Here list conditions relating specifically to the proposed structure or work authmued by this permit): 1. The proposed cable will be a minimum of 6 feet below the authorized Tar River project (100 feet wide and 12 feet deep at normal water). 2. Cable plowing or jetting is the "least damaging and, therefore, preferred method of installation.Tn those areas where depth or debris prevent their use and excavation by clamshell or dragline is required, all excavated materials should be placed on barges or other suitable conveyance and transported to high ground. Once the cable is in place, the excavated trench should be allowed to backfill naturally. 3. Wetlands disturbed during construction along Tar River and Kennedy Creek should be restored to pre -project elevation and contour. The North Carolina Department of Cultural Resources, Division of Archives and History, has identified the crossing of the Tar River to be in an area of high probability for cultural resources; therefore, work should proceed with caution. Should cultural resources be encountered, work in the area should cease, and Ms. F. Langdon Edmunds, Environmental geview Coordinator with Archives and History, (919-733-4763) should be notified. 3
