Dear Mr. O'Quinn:
You have our approval to place fill material in 7.128 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose
of constructing US 70 Bypass of Smithfield, as you described in your application dated 16 June 1995.
After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill, is covered by General Water Quality
Certification Number 2671. This certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 26 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.
For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification.
Mitigation in areas I and II shall be done as shown on the 13 June 1995 mitigation plan. As-built
plans and mitigation reports shall be submitted to DEM. In addition, you should get any other federal,
state or local permits before you go ahead with your project.
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.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Environmental Management under Section 401

Subject: US 70 Smithfield Bypass
To: Eric Galamb; John Dorney
FYI. I have discussed this project w/ Jean Manuel (or should I
say listened, by the way Eric she says your nascar driver sucks)
and Cyndi Bell. I do not know enough about the project to
complain so I'm going to accept the COE call. Jean is going to
issue permit w/ condition that work can proceed if DEM says it
is OK. Detailed mitigation info, as-built plans, etc. will be
coming later. I told Cyndi it was OK to proceed. I do not know
the status of the 401 but am assuming that it has been issued.
Permit was originally issued in 1988 and permit expired. COE
made them reapply, TIP # R-0084BA. When I receive info on
acres of mitigation and wetlands type I will forward to you.

rD".,?U
0.4 mile east of
of SR 2305 East of
No. 6.319003T and
Reference the Department of the Army permit issued on June 6, 1988 for
the discharge of fill material into 10.65 acres of wetlands to be impacted by
the widening and relocation of US 70-A from west of the Neuse River to east
of Smithfield. The Company Swamp Mitigation Bank was debited 10.65 acres for
this impact. This permit expired on December 31, 1991. Construction was
completed except for the above referenced segment. NCDOT recently began
construction of the US 70 Bypass segment without having renewed the permit.
There was a mistake in our records which indicated the project was authorized
with a nationwide permit and the Nationwide Permit No. 26 conditions were
included in the contract specifications.
On May 23, 1995 Ms. Jean Manuele of the DOA Raleigh Regulatory Field
Office visited the construction site with NCDOT and its contractor. One
wetland site (Site 6 in the 1988 permit) and a small farm pond (Site 7 in the
1988 permit) are located in the project corridor. The wetland site is a
bottomland hardwood located above headwaters (Figure 1). The construction
corridor has been cleared, and fill has been placed on approximately 2.5
acres of wetlands. The entire wetland fill area to be involved at this
location will include 7.128 acres of jurisdictional wetlands. The 1988
permit indicated this site was 3.2 acres and the Company Swamp Mitigation
Bank was debited that amount as mitigation for Site 6. This discrepancy in
acreage assessment is due to changes in wetland delineation methodology which
have occurred since the 1981 EA document was prepared for the US 70 project.
Ms. Manuele informed us that a partial Cease and Desist Order would be placed
on this project to prevent additional unauthorized fill in wetlands. At that
time, all work in wetlands was discontinued. Work in upland portions of the
project has continued.
9'-
June 16, 1995
Page 2
On Friday, May 26, 1995.NCDOT staff showed Ms. Manuele several potential
mitigation sites in the vicinity of this project. A total of 8.38 acres of
wetlands could be restored, enhanced, or created at these locations. Figure
2 illustrates an area adjacent to the existing US 70A near the entrance to
the US 70 Bypass. Mitigation Area I consists of 1.73 acres of forested
bottomlands which have been ditched and drained, as well as a 2.42 acre field
which has been drained and deforested. The forested portion of this tract
can be enhanced by filling the ditches which are draining the site. Without
this measure, the site would eventually become dominated by upland adapted
species. The adjacent field will be restored to wetlands through controlling
the roadside ditch which runs parallel to US 70A. This site will also be
reforested with bottomland hardwood species. The site hydrology and
vegetation will be monitored in accordance with the attached mitigation plan.
This plan is consistent with the plan implemented for the SR 1003/US 70
Interchange project.
Figure 3 illustrates Mitiga ion Areas II, III and IV at the state borrow
ponds on US 70 at the Neuse Riv r. The lower pond already has a 0.24 acre
enhancement mitigation area, a ociated with the SR 1003/US 70 Interchange
project, on the western bank. .We propose reforestation of the entire western
bank area, which will involve an additional 2.33 acres of land. Mitigation
Area III will involve the creation of a 1.1 acre island within the upper
pond. Mitigation Area IV will involve a 0.8 acre wetland created through a
combination of excavation and fill in surface waters at the eastern edge of
the upper pond. Mitigation Areas III and IV will be graded to a level
approximately one foot above the surface level of the upper pond. In the
event that the water level rises at the upper pond, the dam between the two
ponds can be manipulated to reach the desired high water level.
The mitigation site drawings include the locations of proposed
monitoring wells. The sites will be planted and monitored in accordance with
the attached mitigation plan.
Figure 1 illustrates the projected wetland impact area, along with the
extent of fill which has already been placed. It is anticipated that this
work may be authorized under Nationwide Permit No. 26 for Project Above
Headwaters 33 CFR 330.5(3) and a predischarge notification is attached. The
401.Water Quality Certification issued by the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management for the original permit may still be valid; however,
because the site is larger than originally thought, DEM is being provided
with a copy of this notification for their action, as required.

3. Check for proper planting methods.
4. Check for proper plant spacing (6-101, Avg. 8' OC)
5. All disturbed areas adjacent to the mitigation
sites will be stabilized to prevent sedimentation
into the mitigation sites.
6. Construction of the mitigation sites will be
initiated at such time to provide for planting of
seedlings the first suitable planting period
(December 1 through March 15) following
commencement of project construction.
7. No more than 20% of any one species shall be
planted in the initial planting.
B. At completion of planting check for conformity with
plans as well as quality of planting. An "as-built"
report of the mitigation area, including final
elevations, photographs, sample plot locations, well
locations, and problems/resolutions, shall be
submitted to the Wilmington District within 30 days of
the mitigation site construction.
C. At the end of each of three growing seasons:
1. Determine stem count based upon one sample plot
(0.05 acre) per acre.
2. Take photographs.
3. Annual monitoring shall be conducted in the period
August 1 through September 30 of each year until
the vegetative success criteria is met.
4. Annual monitoring reports, including photographs,
sample plot data, well data, and
problems/resolutions, shall be submitted within 30
days of site monitoring.
III. Monitoring for Hydrology
The hydrology parameter for this specific project has
been established as saturation within 12 inches of the
surface, ponded or flooded for at least 26 consecutive
days of the growing season for the first year under
reasonably average climatic conditions. NCDOT will
document compliance through the use of monitoring wells
or visual observation within the mitigation sites. In
the event that the hydrological success criteria is not
met during the first year, well monitoring will continue
in successive years until the success criteria has been
met and documented.
IV. Evaluation and recourse actions:
A. A minimum of 320 stems per acre living. If after
three uears the number of trees per acre is below
320 NCDOT will consult with the COE to determine an
appropriate recourse option.
B. Annual data evaluation, at the end of three growing
seasons:
1. Below acceptable survival rate (recourse options)
a. Replant (supplemental or complete)
b. Minor regrading
c. Reevaluate feasibility
2. Acceptable survival rate - no action

Dear Mr. Smith:
1995
JUN 2 1

SUBJECT: Johnston County - US 70 Smithfield Bypass from 0.4 mile east of
SR 1003 (Buffalo Road) to US 70 0.1 Mile West of SR 2305 East of
Smithfield; T.I.P. No. R-00846Ai State Project no. 6.319003T and
8.1236901
Reference the Department of the Army permit issued on June 6, 1988 for
the discharge of fill material into 10.65 acres of wetlands to be impacted by
the widening and relocation of US 70-A from west of the Neuse River to east
of Smithfield. The Company Swamp Mitigation Bank was debited 10.65 acres for
this impact. This permit expired on December 31, 1991. Construction was
completed except for the above referenced segment. NCDOT recently began
construction of the US 70 Bypass segment without having renewed the permit.
There was a mistake in our records which indicated the project was authorized
with a nationwide permit and the Nationwide Permit No. 26 conditions were
included in the contract specifications.
On May 23, 1995 Ms. Jean Manuele of the DOA Raleigh Regulatory Field
Office visited the construction site with NCDOT and its contractor. One
wetland site (Site 6 in the 1988 permit) and a small farm pond (Site 7 in the
1988 permit) are located in the project corridor. The wetland site is a
bottomland hardwood located above headwaters (Figure 1). The construction
corridor has been cleared, and fill has been placed on approximately 2.5
acres of wetlands. The entire wetland fill area to be involved at this
location will include 7.128 acres of jurisdictional wetlands. The 1988
permit indicated this site was 3.2 acres and the Company Swamp Mitigation
Bank was debited that amount as mitigation for Site 6. This discrepancy in
acreage assessment-is due to changes in wetland delineation methodology which
have occurred since the 1981 EA document was prepared for the US 70 project.
Ms. Manuele informed us that a partial Cease and Desist Order would be placed
on this project to prevent additional unauthorized fill in wetlands. At that
time, all work in wetlands was discontinued. Work in upland portions of the
project has continued.

On Friday, May 26, 1995 MCDOT staff showed Ms. Manuele several potential
mitigation sites in the vicinity of this project. A total of 8.38 acres of
wetlands could be restored, enhanced, or created at these locations- Figure
2 illustrates an area adjacent to the existing US 70A near the entrance to
the US 70 Bypass. Mitigation Area I consists of 1.73 acres of forested
bottomiands which have been ditched and drained, as well as a 2.42 acre field
which has been drained and deforested. The forested portion of this tract
can be enhanced by filling the ditches which are draining the site. Without
this measure, the site would eventually become dominated by upland adapted
species. The adjacent field will be restored to wetlands through controlling
the roadside ditch which runs parallel to US 70A. This site will also be
reforested with bottomland hardwood species. The site hydrology and
vegetation will be monitored in accordance with the attached mitigation plan.
This plan is consistent with the plan implemented for the SR 1003/0S 70
Interchange project.
figure 3 illustrates Mitigation Areas 11, III and IV at the state borrow
ponds on US 70 at the Neuse River. The lower and already has a 0.24 acre
enhancement mitigation area, associated with the SR 1003/US 70 Interchange
project, on the western bank. We propose reforestation of the entire western
bank area, which will involve an additional 2.33 acres of land. Mitigation
Area III will involve the creation of a 1.1 acre island within the upper
pond. Mitigation Area IV will involve a 0.8 acre wetland created through a
combination of excavation and fill in surface waters at the eastern edge of
the upper pond. Mitigation Areas III and IV will be graded to a level .
approximately one foot above the surface level of the upper pond. In the
event that the water level rises at the upper pond, the dam between the two
ponds can be manipulated to reach the desired high water level.
The mitigation site drawings include the locations of proposed
monitoring wells. The sites will be planted and monitored in accordance with
the attached mitigation plan.
Figure 1 illustrates the projected wetland impact area, along with the
extent of fill which has already been placed. It is anticipated that this
work may be authorized under Nationwide Permit No. 26 for Project Above
Headwaters 33 CFR 330.5(3) and a predischarge notification is attached. The
401 Mater Quality Certification issued by the North Carolina Division of
Environmental management for the original permit may still be valid; however,
because the site is larger than originally thought, DEN is being provided
with a copy of this notification for their action, as required.

GUIDELINES FOR WETLAND MONITORING PROGRAM
JUNES 13, 1995
1. Monitoring Timeframe - Mitigation site shall be inspected
at the following time:
A. Prior to planting
S. At completion of planting
C. At the end of the next three growing seasons.
II. Data to be obtained at specific inspection times:
A. Prior to'plantinq
1. Check for proper elevation and grade.
2. Check for proper plant species and for acceptable
.plant quality.
Jualans n ara - Eastern Black Walnut, 12-15"
Fraxinus pennsylvanica - Green Ash, 15-18" uercu
lvrata - Overcup Oak, 12-15"
uereus michauxii - Swamp Chestnut oak, 12-15"
ouercus nhellos - Willow Oak, 15-18"
uerc s nicra - Water Oak, 15-18"
(All barercot seedlings)
Note: Plant species are contingent on availability
at the time of planting.
3o check for proper planting methods.
4. Check for proper plant spacing (6-181, Avg. 81 OC)
5. All disturbed areas adjacent to the mitigation
sites will be stabil i2ed to prevent sedimentation
into the mitigation sites.
6. construction of the mitigation sites will be
initiated at such time to provide for planting of
seedlings the first suitable planting period
(December 1 through March 15) following
commencement of project construction.
7. No more than 20% of any one species shall be
planted in the initial planting.
8. At completion of planting check for conformity with
plans as well as quality of planting. An "as-built"

report of the mitigation area, including final
elevations, photographs, sample plot locations, well
locations, and problems/resolutions, shall be
submitted to the Wilmington District within 30 days of
the mitigation site construction.
C. At the end of each of three growing seasons:
1. Determine stem count based upon one sample plot
(0.05 acre) per acre.
2. Take photographs.
3. Annual monitoring ahall be conducted, in the period
August 1 through September 30 of each year until
the vegetative success criteria is met.
4. Annual monitoring reports, including photographs,
sample plot data, well data, and
problems/resolutions, shall be submitted within 30
days of site monitoring.
III. Monitoring for Hydrology
The hydrology parameter for this specific project has
been established as saturation within 12 inches of the
surface, ponded or flooded for at least 26 consecutive
days of the growing season for the first year under
reasonably average climatic conditions. NCDOT Will
document compliance through the use of monitoring wells
or visual observation within the mitigation sites. In
the event that the hydrological success criteria is not
met during the first year, well monitoring will continue
in successive years until the success criteria has been
met and documented.
TV. Evaluation and recourse actions:
A. A minimum of 320 stems per acre living. If after
three uears the number of trees per acre i.s below
320 NCDOT will consult with the COS to determine an
appropriate recourse option.
B. Annual data evaluation, at the end of three growing
seasons:
1. Below acceptable survival rate (recourse options)
A. Replant (supplemental or complete)
D. Minor regrading
c. Reevaluate Eeastbility
2. Acceptable survival rate - no action
