NCDOT Division 11
P.O. Box 250
North Wilkesboro, NC 28659
Dear Mr. Slaughter:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact
0.077 acres of wetlands and 250 linear feet of an unnamed tributaries to Little River in order to improve
SR 1140 (Todd Road) in Alleghany County. The project must be constructed in accordance with your
application dated July 8, 2002 (received July 12, 2002). After reviewing your application, we have
decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 3375, corresponding to the
U.S: Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit Number 14. In addition, you must acquire any other
federal, state or local permits before you proceed with your project including (but not limited to)
Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. This approval
will expire with the accompanying 404 permit unless otherwise specified in the Water Quality
Certification.
This approval is valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified
below). Should your project change, you must notify the DWQ in writing and submit a new application.
If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter, and is
thereby responsible for complying with all the conditions. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in
the future) exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or in the future) exceed 150 linear feet,
compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H.0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this
approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional
conditions listed below.
1. Little River and its unnamed tributaries are classified as High Quality Waters (HQW). In order to
minimize impacts to downstream aquatic resources, NCDOT shall use "Sedimentation and Erosion
Control Guidelines for Sensitive Watersheds" (15A NCAC 4B .0124 (a) -.(d) found at
http://ncruies.state.nc.us/ncadministrativ /titlel5aenviron-/Chapter04sedime-/default.htm).
Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation shall be planted on all bare soil within 10 days of
ground-disturbing activities to provide long term erosion control. In addition, storm water runoff
shall be directed to buffer areas or retention basins and not routed directly to streams unless applicant
demonstrates this is impracticable or unfeasible.
2. NCDOT shall implement Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters (NCDOT
March 1997).
3. Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of
the growing season following completion of construction.
4. NCDOT is encouraged to use existing on-site vegetation and materials for stream bank stabilization
and to minimize the use of rip rap.

5. If any of the existing pipes are perched and do not allow for passage of aquatic life, they shall be
removed and reinstalled correctly during this project.
6. The dimension, pattern, and profile of the stream and floodplain above and below each structure shall
not be modified by widening the stream channel or reducing the depth of the stream.
7. All work shall be performed during low flow conditions.
8. Heavy equipment must be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channel in order to
minimize sedimentation and reduce the. likelihood of introducing other pollutants into the stream.
9. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and maintained
to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic
materials.
10. Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certificate of
Completion" form (Condition Number 16 of WQC #3375) to notify NCDWQ when all work included
in the §401 Certification has been completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form
and return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the NC Division of Water Quality upon completion of the
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, 6714 Mail'Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This certification and its
conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.

Subject: Nationwide Permit #14
SR 1140 (Todd Road) FILE COPY
Alleghany County, North Carolina
Project Number: 6.702312 (DWQ Permit'Fee: $475)
Dear Mrs. Manuele:
The NC Department of Transportation is scheduled to grade, drain, base and pave SR 1140 in
Alleghany County. The existing 16 foot wide gravel road will be widened to 18 feet and paved.
Total project length is approximately 1 mile. Impervious surface area will increase by 0.24 acres
or 4%. This project will require the replacement of one (1) bridge (no detour) and four (4) wet
cross lines as shown below:
1) Replace existing Bridge #97 at station 13+40 with a new bridge (high ground to high
ground, 20 feet of riprap).
2) Delete existing 30'x 18" RCP at station 40+80. Add an 80'x 24" CMP on new
alignment.
3) Delete existing 24'x 18" CMP at station 45+90. Add a 70'x 24" CMP on new
alignment.
4) Delete existing 26'x 18" CMP at station 53+50. Add a 70'x 24" CMP on new
alignment.
5) Replace existing 30'x 24" CMP at station 60+35 with an 80'x 36" CMP.
Miscellaneous rip-rap impacts will total 60 linear ft. or less. New streambed impacts = 2501n. ft.
Due to our inability to acquire additional right-of-way along the existing roadway from stations
33+50 - 49+00, we are proposing to shift the alignment of the road approximately 40 feet to the

south through this area. Two small wetlands will be impacted as a result of this alignment shift.
The anticipated construction impacts will equal 0.077 acres of wetland fill (See attachments).
Due to the close proximity of an unnamed tributary to the Little River, gabion baskets will be
installed for slope stabilization from stations 10+36 - 12+36. The roadway width will remain at
16' through this area so that the gabions can be placed above the normal high water mark (no
permitted impact).
Construction of this project will require impacts to waters of the United States in the New River
Basin. The bridge at station 13+40 and each of the above noted wet cross lines carry different
unnamed tributaries to the Little River (Class: C, HQW). The Division 11 Environmental Officer
reviewed this project for the presence of threatened and endangered species on June 24, 2002.
The subject project will have no effect on any federally listed endangered plant or animal species.
Historic compliance work will be scheduled and concurrence with the State Historic Preservation
Office will be obtained if required.
Since this is an existing roadway, the modifications proposed in this application should not
remove or degrade existing water quality uses. Any widening of the existing roadway will be
directed away from any adjacent creek whenever possible with minimum fill placed in any buffer
area. Pipe sizes used will be the minimum necessary to create a safe roadway. By utilizing the
erosion control measures outlined in the attachments to this application, downstream water
quality standards will be protected. All appropriate BMPs will be used during construction.
Attached is a Preconstruction Notification Form, plan sheets with proposed erosion control
measures, Routine Wetland Determination Data Forms, a Wetland Rating Worksheet, a marked
county map, a marked topography map and photographs.
By copy of this letter, it is requested that Mr. Ron Linville, Mountain Region Coordinator, with
the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission comment directly to you concerning the 404
Nationwide Permit application with a copy sent to me.
By copy of this letter, I am forwarding seven (7) copies of this application package to Cynthia
Van Der Wiele, NCDENR, Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetlands Unit, for her review. It is
requested that any comments related to the 401 certification be forwarded directly to me with a
copy sent to the US Army Corps of Engineers.
We would like to begin construction as soon as possible. If further information is required, please
let me know. Your early review and consideration will be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Heath Slaughter

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
The existing roadway must be widened to achieve an acceptable section width, thus increasing
public safety. The existing pipes must be replaced for the same reason. By utilizing,
the erosion control measures as shown in the attached drawings adverse impacts to streams in
the area will be minimized Since this is an existing roadway, the stream impacts cannot be
avoided However, the replacement pipe lengths will be the minimum needed to construct the
,widened roadway. The rioted wetland impacts were unavoidable due to our inability to acquire
right-of--way on the other side of the road All appropriate BMPs will be used during_
construction.

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as
incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration
in DWQ's Draft Xechnical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.

This project appears to have avoidable impacts. It is not clear to me
why the individual pipe sections must expand from an average of 27 ft to
an average of 75 feet. The road section is stated to expand from 16
feet gravel to 18 feet paved. There will be an unpaved shoulder on each
side, however, it appears that the amount of CMP is excessive. It is
also not clear in the application as to the design speed for this rural
road so it is difficult to determine the relationship of the proper road
section. The stated purpose of this road project is to increase public
safety. If improving public safety on this road is indeed an issue, the
applicant should provide evidence that public safety is poor under the
existing conditions. This project appears to facilitate new development
in this area by "improving" a streetscape. The road upgrade itself will
consume 4% more impervious surface than before. It is likely to
facilitate additional growth that may have avoidable secondary and
cumulative impacts.
