SUBJECT: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FOR NATIONWIDE 27 PERMIT FOR
WIDENING OF NC 16 IN MECKLENBURG COUNTY, TIP 1 J-2510 BFI
As you are aware, North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) has applied for a
401 Water Quality Certification for the subject project. NCDOT was subsequently informed that
additional information that outlined the bioengineering techniques that would be used for banl;
stabilization was needed in order to issue the Certification.
NCDOT proposes to perform stream restoration of Four Mile Creek. As indicated in the
original application, restoration activities include the removal of accumulated sediment from
approximately 1120 feet of Four Mile Creek, reshaping of the stream banks to a 2:1 slope, and
vegetative plantings on the banks and along the top of the stream banks within the floodplain. In
addition to these activities and what was not mentioned in the original application, coir fiber matting
will be placed along the stream banks. The black willow and silky dogwood plantings will then be
placed through the matting. This bioengineering technique is detailed in the attached drawing.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact Mr. Michael
Wood at [phone], Extension 306.

NCDOT Coordinator
Dear Sir:
SUBJECT: APPLICATION FOR NATIONWIDE 27 PERMIT FOR WIDENING OF
NC 16 IN MECKLENBURG COUNTY. TIP U-2510 BB.
On November 12, 1997, your office issued a General Permit No. 198200031,
Action ID # 199707383, to widen NC 16 in Mecklenburg County. In the original
application, North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) committed to
provide a greenway crossing where NC 16 crossed Four Mile Creek. This was
coordinated with the Mecklenburg County Parks And Recreation Department.
Four Mile Creek is heavily impacted by sedimentation in this area. Water flow is
restricted by the accumulation of over four feet of sediment at the culverts. In order to
construct the greenway and restore the hydraulic opening to accommodate a 50-year
storm, NCDOT proposes to remove the sediment from 4 of the 5 box culverts as well as
the sediment 100 feet up river and 1017 feet down river. The fifth culvert will be tilled to
raise the elevation and paved to accommodate the greenway traffic. However, this
activity is not covered under the existing permits.
It is NCDOT's contention that removing this sediment will restore much of the
lost hydrologic functions of the stream. Additionally, NCDOT will plant black willow
(Salix nigra) and silky dogwood (Corpus amomum) on the channel banks and sweetgum
(Liquidambar styracglua), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), black cherry (Prunus
serotina), and river birch (Benda nigra) on top of the banks along the floodplain
throughout the restoration project.
7
NCDOT is in the process of obtaining a 3-year easement throughout the project
area in order to monitor the success of the stream restoration project. Any failures (i.e..
stream bank collapse, tree mortality) during this period will be rectified. A copy of this
request as well as details of the stream restoration are attached.
The NCDOT hereby requests authorization for the project under a NW 27 for
Wetland and Riparian Restoration and Creation Activities. By copy of this information,
the DWQ is requested to review this project for authorization. If you have any questions
or need any additional information, please contact Mr. Michael Wood at [phone],
extension 306.

NCDOT is?currently constructing the subject project. The crossing of Fourmile
Creek will require-dredging in the stream for approximately 100 feet upstream and 1000
feet downstream. NCDOT has already obtained a temporary drainage easement in this
area. The Army Corps of Engineers has stated that a Nationwide Permit (NWP) 27 for
stream restoration will be required to authorize this activity. The NWP 27 will require a
three year monitoring period following completion of the project to ensure success.
NCDOT will be responsible for remediation of any stream restoration failures during this
time.
Therefore, NCDOT is asking your assistance in obtaining a three-year easement,
beginning from the completion of the stream restoration activities. Tile following
individuals are listed on the planning sheets (sheets 18, 27 and 28) as the landowners

ATTN: Mr. Steve Lund
NCDOT Coordinator
Dear Sir:
SUBJECT: APPLICATION FOR NATIONWIDE 27 PERMIT FOR WIDENING OF
NC 16 IN MECKLENBURG COUNTY. TIP U-2510 BB.
On November 12, 1997, your office issued a General Permit No. 198200031,
Action ID # 199707383, to widen NC 16 in Mecklenburg County. In the original
application, North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) committed to
provide a greenway crossing where NC 16 crossed Four Mile Creek. This was
coordinated with the Mecklenburg County Parks And Recreation Department.
Four Mile Creek is heavily impacted by sedimentation in this area. Water flow is
restricted by the accumulation of over four feet of sediment at the culverts. In order to
construct the greenway and restore the hydraulic opening to accommodate a 50-year
storm, NCDOT proposes to remove the sediment from 4 of the 5 box culverts as well as
the sediment 100 feet up river and 1017 feet down river. The fifth culvert will be tilled to
raise the elevation and paved to accommodate the greenway traffic. However, this
activity is not covered under the existing permits.
It is NCDOT's contention that removing this sediment will restore much of the
lost hydrologic functions of the stream. Additionally, NCDOT will plant black willow
(Salix nigru) and silky dogwood (Corms amomum) on the channel banks and sweetgum
(Liquidumhar styrac{flea), sycamore (Platanus occidentalis), black cherry (Prunes
serotina), and river birch (Benda nigru) on top of the banks along the floodplain
throughout the restoration project.
1)
NCDOT is in the process of obtaining a 3-year easement throughout the project
area in order to monitor the success of the stream restoration project. Any failures (i.e..
stream bank collapse, tree mortality) during this period will be rectified. A copy of this
request as well as details of the stream restoration are attached.
The NCDOT hereby requests authorization for the project under a NW 27 for
Wetland and Riparian Restoration and Creation Activities. By copy of this information,
the DWQ is requested to review this project for authorization. If you have any questions
or need any additional information, please contact Mr. Michael Wood at [phone],
extension 306.

NCDOT is,currently constructing the subject project. The crossing of Fourmile
Creek will require dredging in the stream for approximately 100 feet upstream and 1000
feet downstream. NCDOT has already obtained a temporary drainage easement in this
area. The Army Corps of Engineers has stated that a Nationwide Permit (NWP) 27 for
stream restoration will be required to authorize this activity. The NWP 27 will require a
three year monitoring period following completion of the project to ensure success.
NCDOT will be responsible for remediation of any stream restoration failures during this
time.
Therefore, NCDOT is asking your assistance in obtaining a three-year easement,
beginning from the completion of the stream restoration activities. The following
individuals are listed on the planning sheets (sheets 18, 27 and 28) as the landowners

Recommendation: O Issue OO Issue/Cond O Deny
NCDOT has requested approval to restore approx. 1120 feet of stream bed in coniunctio_n with the
widening of the subject highway. The stream restoration project is necessary due to the
accumulation of instream sediment in the existing highwav's box culverts as well as upstream and
downstream of the culverts. The proposal will involve dredging of the stream to remove the
accumulated sediment as well as vegetative I?gs along the top of the stream banks within the
floodplain. Restoration activities also include reshaping of the stream banks to a :1 slope. The
applicant, however, did not mention any b, ioengineering techniques that are to be used for bank
stabilization. Prior to ap rp oval, applicant should provide details regarfflng specific stream bank
stabilization techniques that are to be used. Pending receipt and approval of the information
guested above, it is recommended that the 401 WO Certification be issued.
