You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to permanently
impact 0.01 acres of wetlands. Stream impacts include 46 linear feet of permanent impacts and 20 linear
feet of temporary impacts to an unnamed tributary to Beaver Creek in order to upgrade SR 3607 (Chuck
Road) in Guilford County. The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated
May 24, 2002 (received May 24, 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 should 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 only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application except as
modified below. If you change your project, you must notify us, in writing, and send us 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 conditions. If total wetland fills for this project
(now or in the future) exceed one acre, or if stream impacts 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. NCDOT shall use Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters (NCDOT March
1997) and Sedimentation. and Erosion Control Guidelines for Sensitive Watersheds (15A NCAC 4B

ATTN: Mrs. Jean Manuele
NCDOT Coordinator
Dear Mrs. Manuele:
SUBJECT: Guilford County, Upgrade of Chuck Road (SR 3607) from an unpaved secondary
road to a paved secondary road.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade Chuck Road (SR
3607) from an unpaved to a paved secondary road to reduce future maintenance needs and increase
traffic safety. Total project length is 0.33 miles. This activity will result in the impacts to waters of
the United States including a stream and a wetland. The activity is occurring in the Cape Fear River
Basin.
Stream impacts will result from the replacement and extension of crossline pipes to facilitate travel
lane and shoulder widening during the upgrade. The activity will involve the replacement of two (2)
lines of 44' long 18" Reinforced Concrete pipes. As indicated on the site plans, the existing pipe
located at Station 13+55 (the western pipe) serves as a stream conveyance pipe; whereas the existing
pipe located at Station 13+60 (the eastern pipe) serves as a floodwater conveyance pipe. The
replacement pipes will be placed in the same location as the existing pipes. The stream conveyance
pipe is being sized smaller than the flood conveyance pipe to prevent widening of the upstream
channel into the wetland altering the wetland hydrology. The table below indicates the proposed
pipe lengths and sizes for the stream and floodplain conveyance pipes along with anticipated impacts.

Cumulative Impacts 36 en , 20 tm , 10
RCP = reinforced concrete pipe; CMP = Corrugated metal pipe; CMPA = Corrugated metal pipe arch.
en = enclosure; tmp = temporary, rp = rip rap energy dissipaters placed above ordinary high water.
Permanent impacts will result from stream enclosure and placement of rip rap energy dissipaters
above the ordinary high water mark on each side of the newly installed stream conveyance pipe
(energy dissipaters will be included within the confines of the temporary work area). Temporary
impacts will result from the placement of ABC aggregate or a less intrusive dewatering device within
the stream during the dewatering operation. Dewatering devices will be placed on both side of the
stream water conveyance pipe as it is being replaced.
The road being upgraded is not a dead end; therefore, a temporary travel lane will not be constructed
as an on-site detour during dewatering of perennial streams. Within 15 working days of the of the
pipe replacement activity all dewatering structures and rock silt screens will be entirely removed and
natural stream contours will be restored and seeded.
Wetland impacts will result from the placement of fill material in the wetland to facilitate travel lane
and shoulder widening during the upgrade. Individual wetland impacts are as follows:

See the attached data sheets and Natural Resource Review Evaluation Sheet for additional
information on the wetland being impacted.
PHONE 336-334-3192 FAX 336.334-3637
Stream mitigation is not anticipated, as the impacts to any individual stream do not exceed 150 feet
Wetland mitigation is not anticipated, as wetland impacts do not exceed 0.10 acres and do not occur
in a unique natural wetland. The project is located in a High Quality Water. The project will not
impact an Essential Fisheries Habitat. No Threatened or Endangered species were observed during
field surveys conducted by Len Smith for species known to occur in Guilford County (See the
attached Endangered Species Review Sheet for further information). Historic compliance work to be.
scheduled and concurrence with the Historic Preservation Office will be obtained if required.
Secondary impacts will be minimised by strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the
protection of surface waters and wetlands, restrictions against the staging of equipment in or
adjacent to waters of the US, and coordination with the Division Environmental Officer.
The NCDOT anticipates that the proposed filling activities will be authorized under Nationwide
Permit 14 and the dewatering operations will be authorized under NWP 33. This application is
intended as a request for formal written authorization from the USACE to place fill in the wetland at
Station 13+55 under NWP 14; and dewater the stream at Station 13+55 under NWP 33. This
application is also intended as request for written authorization from the NC Division of Water
Quality for filling activities under General Water Quality Certificate # 3375 (NWP 14). Enclosed
please find the Pre-construction Notification Form and supporting documentation for the above
referenced project. Construction is anticipated to begin
as soon as practicable following authorization and take 4 weeks to complete.
If you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact Lane Hall at (336) 334-
3161 or Len Smith at (336) 256-2063. Your time and effort are appreciated.

staging of equipment in or adjacent to waters of the US and coordination with the Division
Environmental Officer.
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.
Page 5 of 8
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 Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.iic.us/ncwetlands/strnigide.litnil.
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.
A finding of insignificant impact is anticipated. Cumulative impacts are less than 150 feet.
The maximum amount of impact to a single stream is 26 linear feet. No Outstanding
Resource Waters federally protected species or their habitats or essential fishery habitats
occur in the project area The project is located in a High Quality Water.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at litIp://li2o.enr.stite,nc.us/w!p/itidex.litin. If

1. Review Erosion Control Plans and Standards. Identify all
release points (outlets of crossline pipes, tail ditches,
roadway ditches; fill slopes, etc.)
2. Install all measures a release points prior to clearing 6
grubbing. See Erosion Control standards for proper
installation.
3. Begin grading operations - install all other measures as
grading progresses and monitor their effectiveness.' If
any measures need to be changed, consult Highway
Maintenance Engineer. Show changes on Erosion Control
Plans.
4. Locate all borrow pits and waste areas with their erosion
control measures on Erosion Control Plans 'or attach a
separate sheet showing same.
5. Before moving to next job site, review all measures. for
effectiveness; make any adjustments, clean-outs, or-
repair; call Roadside Environmental Department for
installation of a ditch liner and seeding and mulching
of all disturbed areas.
6. Continue to check and maintain all measures after each
- significant rainfall until all disturbed areas become
stabilized
7. Fill in all silt basins and silt ditches; remove all silt
fences and slope drains; redistribute all stone from silt
checks, sediment dams, and silt screens. Seed and mulch
disturbed areas.

Construction Sequence and Erosion Control Plan for Replacement of
Pipe with Pipe Using a Pump Around - Guilford County, SR 3607
(Chuck Road)
Work to begin as soon as practicable following authorization.
Construction is anticipated to take 4 weeks.
1. Install a rock silt dam downstream of the work area to prevent incidental sediment
loss.
2. Install ABC aggregate or a less intrusive dewatering device to allow dewatering of
the work area.
3. Install pumps to divert flow around the work area.
4. Remove one existing line of 44' long 18" RC pipe.
5. Excavate to sufficient depth to allow 20% burial of the pipe, place base stone, and
single line of 60' long 24" CM pipe.
6. Backfill the new line of pipe and place rip rap only as needed.
7. Starting from the downstream end, remove the dewatering structure and restore the
natural stream contours.
8. Notify landscape department for final seeding.
9. Silt fences to be placed as site conditions require.
10. A 10' X 15' dirt bag will be used to remove excess water in the hole where the new
pipe is being replaced.
11. Site conditions and weather may alter these plans.
12. A method less intrusive than a pump around system may be utilized if site conditions
allow.
