Dear Mr. Moore:
Re: Proposed Paving of SR 1131 (Davis Town Road)
DWQ Project # 980916
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in
0.11 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of paving SR 1131 (Davis Town Road) in
McDowell County, as you described in your application dated 10 September 1998. After
reviewing your application, we have decided that this till is covered by General Water Quality
Certification Number 3103. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 14
when the Corps of Engineers issues it. 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, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this approval
will expire when the accompanying 404 Permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General
Certification.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application
and in follow-up correspondence provided on October 29, 1998 to Ms. Liz Dickson of the DWQ
Asheville Regional Office. This is to include planting of two rows of native shrubs adjacent to
Lytle Creek from Station 0+00 to 12+70. Grading and clearing shall be minimized between
Stations 6+50 and 91+20. If you change your project, you must notify us and you may be
required to send us a new application for a new certification. If the property is sold, the new
owner must be given a copy of this Certification an approval letter and is thereby responsible for
complying with all conditions. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions
listed in the attached Certification.

Dear Mr. Moore:
The Division of Water Quality received your application for a 401 Water Quality
Certification for the paving of SR 1131 (Davis Town Road) in McDowell County on September
16, 1998. Your application was forwarded to Ms. Liz Dickson of the DWQ Asheville Regiona
Office. Ms. Dickson forwarded a series of questions and suggestions to you on October 16,
1998, regarding project design, wetland impacts and erosion control. Please furnish this office a
copy of your response to Ms. Dickson's correspondence. Until the issues noted in the staff report

401 Certification Review
DWQ Project No. 980916
McDowell county
Dear Mr. Moore:
Mr. Mike Parker and I conducted a site visit on October
5, 199e, for a 401 Certification review of the proposed DOT
project to pave Davis Town Church Road, OR 1131. Our
obscrvati.Qne, questions, and recommendations are as follows:
1. Survey Stations 0+00 to 12+70:
Lytle Creek (118-foot live creek") is very close to the
right side of the existing gravel- road.
How will DOT maintain erosion control with the stream
located so close to the road? What will DOT do to
minimize the impacts of the paving project?
our recommendation is to plant shrubs, such as
willows and silky dogwood, on this section to
stabilize the stream bank and prevent erosion,
i 3
2. Survey Station 6+50:
We observed indicator plants for wetlands - tag aldty,
sycamore, and red maple, and a small stream flowing in
from the left side of the road.
Please check this area to see if it is a wetlands.
If so, what is the size of the wetlands to bt affecttd,
and what measures will DOT take to protect the
wetlands?

3. Survey Station 91+20:
PAGE 03
we observed a culvert draining wetlands on both sides
of the road, and a stream (111-foot live creek") flowing
on the left side of the road into Camp Creek.
What is the size of the wetlands to be affected in this
area? The stream on the left side of the road has been
ditched in the past - does DOT plan to reditch it
or to leave it as is?
4. Pre-Conatruction NotifiCati-on Application
For Question 7(a), why was "Yes" marked? An
explanation is requested on the form.
For Question 17, "Yee" was marked- Pleasp respond to
Questions 17(a) and 17(b).

Dear Mr. Chapin:
I am attaching a straight line diagram with erosion control plan, a completed
DEM application form, and a county map section relative to the paving of SR
1131, Davis Town Road in McDowell County.
Davis Town Road is presently 14-16 feet wide. We plan to pave the road 18
feet wide and increase the typical section. The typical section is also attached.
Grading will be moderate to heavy. The project begins at SR 1103 and continues
in a easterly direction to SR 1123, a distance of 1.79 miles.
We propose to extend one (1) culvert a length of twenty-eight feet at survey
stations 91+20.
By copy of this letter, we request Mark S. Davis, North Carolina Wildlife
Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to you
concerning the nationwide permit request.

Dear Mr. Moore:
Mr. Mike Parker and I conducted a site visit on October
5, 1998, for a 401 Certification review of the proposed DOT
project to pave Davis Town Church Road, SR 1131. Our
observations, questions, and recommendations are as follows:
1. Survey Stations 0+00 to 12+70:
Lytle Creek (118-foot live creek") is very close to the
right side of the existing gravel road.
F How will DOT maintain erosion control with the stream
located so close to the road? What will DOT do to
minimize the impacts of the paving project?
r,
p i ? 'r, r 1 I
" y ".CAW Y Our recommendation is to plant shrubs, such as
willows and silky dogwood, on this section to
.«~•,,?- stabilize the stream bank and prevent erosion.
2. Survey Station 6+50:
rY MM? We observed indicator plants for wetlands - tag alder,
_ ruicA3 a sycamore, and red maple, and a small stream flowing in
from the left side of the road.
Please check this area to see if it is a wetlands.
If so, what is the size of the wetlands to be affected,
and what measures will DOT take to protect the
y??J wetlands?

1;3,, i6U.rv4y Station 91+20:
We observed a culvert draining wetlands on both sides
the road, and a stream (111-foot live creek") flowing
on the left side of the road into Camp Creek.
What is the size of the wetlands to be affected in this
area? The stream on the left side of the road has been
ditched in the past - does DOT plan to reditch it
or to leave it as is?
4. Pre-Construction Notification Application:
For Question 7(a), why was "Yes" marked? An
explanation is requested on the form.
For Question 17, "Yes" was marked. Please respond to
Questions 17(a) and 17(b).
We look forward to receiving your responses to these
questions and completing our review. Please call me at
[phone] if you have any comments or questions.
Sincerely,
