DEM Project # 951288

You have our approval to place fill material in 0.01 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose
of replacing/eatending pipe along SR 1549 ( Rutherford Road), as you described in your application
dated 13 December 1995. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered
by General Water Quality Certification Number 2735. This certification allows you to use General
Permit Number 031 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. 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: Nationwide Permit Request
SR 1549 Rutherford Road
1995-1996 Rural Paving Priority
Dear Mr. Chapin:
I am attaching a straight line diagram with erosion
control plan, an application form for a nationwide permit,
and a county map section relative to the paving of SR 1549,
Rutherford Road, in McDowell County.
Rutherford Road is presently 14 to 16 feet wide. We
plan to pave the road 18' wide and increase the typical
section. The proposed typical section is also attached.
Grading will be light to moderate. The.project begins at
US 70 and continues in a westerly direction for 1.13 miles.
We propose to replace/extend one pipe that carries a
live stream at survey stations 15+65.
By a copy of this letter, we am asking Stephanie
Goudreau, North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission
Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to you
concerning the nationwide permit request.
Also, by a copy of this letter, I am sending seven (7)
copies of this application package to the Division of
Environmental Management.

Mr. Steve Chapin
