ON Dear Mr. Slaughter: You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact 30 linear feet of unnamed tributaries to Leroy Creek in order to improve SR 1343 (Parallel Road) in Avery County. The project must be constructed in accordance with your application dated May 9, 2003 (received May 13, 2003). After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 3404, 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. NCDOT shall implement Best Management Practices for the Protection of Surface Waters (NCDOT March 1997). Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 5 days of ground-disturbing activities in the twenty-five (25) foot trout buffer to provide long term erosion control. 2. In-stream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are prohibited during the brown and brook trout spawning season of October 15 through April 15, as determined by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, to protect the egg and fry stages of trout from sedimentation during construction. In addition, NCDOT shall be subject to any other conditions determined by NCWRC as necessary to protecting species and habitat. 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 shall provide for aquatic life passage by burying the culverts at the recommended depths except at Sta. 36+70 where the pipe will remain perched due to slope conditions. Flat boulders and rocks should be used to construct the new stair stepped stream channel from the existing stream channel to the hnttnm of the iipw enlvert- to allnw fnr npiintir, life a.ccage Michael F.

All culverts required for this project shall be installed in such a manner that the original stream profiles are not altered (i.e. the depth of the channel must not be reduced by widening of the streambed). Existing stream dimensions (including the pattern and profile) are to be maintained above and below locations of culvert extensions. The culverts shall be designed to prevent headcutting of the streams. 6. Storm water should be directed to vegetated buffer areas, grass lined ditches or retention basins and must not be routed directly into streams. Mowing of existing vegetated buffer areas is strongly discouraged, so that they may be utilized for storm water sheet flow. 7. NCDOT must submit a plan for written DWQ approval to address any headcutting that will occur as a result of this project. 8. Use of riprap for bank stabilization is to be minimized; rather, native vegetation is to be planted when practical. If riprap is necessary, it must be limited to the stream bank above the high water mark. Riprap shall not be placed in the stream bottom. 9. 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. 10. 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. 11. The presence of equipment in the channels must be minimized. Under no circumstances must rock, sand or other materials be dredged from the wetted stream channel under authorization of this permit, except in the immediate vicinity of the culverts. 12. Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certificate of Completion" form 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. NCDOT is strongly advised to send in photographs upstream and downstream of each structure to document correct installation. 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. This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act.

Total project length is approximately 1 mile. The roadway will be widened from 16 feet to 18 feet. Impervious surface area will increase by 0.24 acres. This project will require the replacement of two (2) wet cross lines as shown below: 1) Replace existing 20'x 30" CMP at station 17+30 with a 30'x 36" CMP. 2) Replace existing 90'x 18" CMP and junction box at station 36+70 with a 90'x 36" CMP and new junction box. Miscellaneous riprap impacts will total 20 linear ft. or less. New stream impacts = 30 linear ft. **Due to slope, the pipe at station 36+70 will remain perched. Riprap will be stair stepped from the stream channel back up to the bottom of the new pipe outlet, thus allowing some aquatic life passage. **The existing wet pipe at station 18+75 carrying Leroy Creek will remain. Construction of this project will require impacts to waters of the United States in the Watauga River Basin. The above noted wet cross lines carry different unnamed tributaries to Leroy Creek (Class: C). This project was reviewed for the presence of threatened and endangered species on May 8, 2003. This project will have no effect on any federally listed endangered plant or animal species. The NCDOT Historical Architecture Section has reviewed this project and determined P. O. Box 250, N.

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. 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 safely construct the paved roadway All appropriate BMPs will be used during construction. Page 7 of 12 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 acc9ptability 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.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmszide.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. N/A Page 8 of 12 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 hu:/Wo.enr.stae.nc.IWMM/index.htm.

Where slope protection treatment is required, Section 86$ and Section 1042 of the 1990 Standard Specifications for Roads and Structures will be followed- -Any material obtained from the project must be clean before being placed. Generally, the order of installation of the erosion control measures will be as follows: Temporary Silt Basins shall be installed before clearing and grubbing begins. Silt Fences and Temporary Silt Ditches shall be installed after clearing and before grading. Temporary Stone Ditch Checks shall be installed as soon as ditchline is established. Pipe Outlet and Inlet Protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed. Seeding and other permanent erosion control measures are to be implemented as soon as practical PIPE INSTALLATION 1. Install erosion control devices. In streams, where necessary, rock silt screens will be used and installed prior to pipe replacement or any work being done to channel. 2. Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much as possible, material and sediment from entering a stream and/or escaping from project. 3. Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as possible, material and sediment from entering a stream and/or escaping from project Where possible, new grade will be below existing stream bed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone. 4. Place the new pipe and compact backfdL 5. Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as needed on existing measure. 6. Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible. 7. Remove rock silt screens as soon as possible after vegetation is established. Prior to removal of rock silt screens any accumulated silt must be removed.

Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission are familiar with habitat values in the area. These comments are provided in accordance with the provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and the North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 through 113A-10; NCAC 25). The project will replace and existing 20' x 30" CMP at station 17+30 with a 30' x 36" CUT and replace an existing 90' x 18" CMP and junction box at station 36+70 with a 90' x 36" CMP and junction box. Miscellaneous riprap impacts will total 20 linear feet. New stream impacts will be 30 linear feet. The application indicates that slope conditions will require the pipe at station 36+70 to remain perched although stair stepped riprap may allow for some aquatic life passage. Although not a Designated Public Mountain Trout Water, populations of wild reproducing brook trout are present in the area. Based on the submittal and our knowledge of trout populations in the area, we will not object to the project providing the following conditions are implemented: 1. Instream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are prohibited during the brown and brook trout spawning season of October 15 through April 15 to protect the egg and fry stages of trout from off-site sedimentation during construction. 2. Culverts 48" or larger should be buried l' into the streambed. Culverts less than 48 inches in diameter should be buried to a depth equal to or greater than SR1343, Parallel Road 2 May 14, 2003 20% their size to allow for aquatic life passage. These measurements must be based on natural thalweg depths. To the extent possible, all waters must flow through without freefalling or damming on either end during low flow conditions to maintain aquatic life and/or fish passage. Unless other design and construction options are available, the stair stepping at station 36+70 should be installed with large flat boulders or rocks in a manner that mimics a natural cascading channel for trout and aquatic life passage. 3. Any riprap used must not interfere with aquatic life movement during low flows. 4. The dimension, pattern, and profile of the stream above and below the culverts should not be modified by widening the stream channel or reducing the depth of the stream. Disturbed floodplains and streams should be restored to natural geomorphic conditions. 5. If concrete will be used, work must be accomplished so that wet concrete does not contact stream water. This will lessen the chance of altering the stream's water chemistry and causing a fish kill. 6. Heavy equipment should be operated from the bank rather than in the stream channel in order to minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into the stream. 7. Stringent erosion control measures should be installed where soil is disturbed and maintained until project completion. 8. Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 5 days of ground disturbing activities in the twenty-five (25) foot trout buffer to provide long-term erosion control. We encourage NCDOT to utilize onsite vegetation and materials for streambank stabilization when practicable.

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 Technical 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. Page 8 of 12 2.

Where slope protection treatment is required, Section 868 and Section 1042 of the 1990 Standard Specifications for Roads and Structures will be followed- Any material obtained from the project must be clean before being placed. Generally, the order of installation of the erosion control measures will be as follows: Temporary Silt Basins shall be installed before clearing and grubbing begins. Silt Fences and Temporary Silt Ditches shall be installed after clearing and before grading. Temporary Stone Ditch Checks shall be installed soon as ditchline is established. Pipe Outlet and Inlet protection will be done as soon as the pipe is installed. Seeding -and other permanent erosion control measures are to be implemented as soon as practical PIPE D\ STALLATI ON L Install erosion control devices. In streams, inhere necessary, rock silt screens will be used and installed prior to pipe replacement or any work being done to channel. 2. Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as 'much as possible, material and sediment from entering a stream and/or escaping from project. 3. Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit, as much as possible, material and sediment from entering a stream and/or escaping from project Where possible, new grade will be below existing stream bed. If needed, bedding material will be clean stone. 4. Place the new pipe and compact backfi 1. 5. Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of pipe. Also complete installation of erosion control measures and perform maintenance as needed on existing measure. 6. Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible. 7. Remove rock silt screens as soon as possible after vegetation is established. Prior to removal of rock silt screens any accumulated silt must be removed.
