Total 28
The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated January 13, 2006 (received
January 20, 2006) and the additional information letter dated February 21, 2006 (received February 24,
2006). After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water
Quality Certification Number 3404. This certification corresponds to Nationwide Permit 14 issued by. the
Corps of Engineers. 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 valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified
below). Should your project change, you must notify the DWQ 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 remain valid, you must adhere to the conditions listed below and in the attached certification.

March 17, 2006
1. Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT Division Engineer shall complete and return the
enclosed "Certification of Completion Form" to notify DWQ when all work included in the 401
Certification has been completed.
2. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area. Approved BMP
measures from the most current version of NCDOT Construction and Maintenance Activities
manual such as sandbags, rock berms, cofferdams and other diversion structures shall be used to
prevent excavation in flowing water.
3. Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications
governing the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best
Management Practices in order to protect surface waters standards:
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed, installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North
Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion control
measures,must be such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in the most
recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices
shall be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects,
including contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the project.
c. For borrow pit sites, the erosion and sediment control measures must be designed,
installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the
North Carolina Surface Mining Manual.
d. The reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the reclamation in
accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
4. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands shall be placed below
the elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches,
and 20 percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48 inches, to allow
low flow passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other structures
including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result
in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream
of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is being
maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock
or other limiting features encountered during construction, please contact the NC DWQ for
guidance on how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be
required.
5. If concrete is used during construction, a dry work area should be maintained to prevent direct
contact between curing concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured
concrete should not be discharged to surface waters due to the potential for elevated pH and
possible aquatic life and fish kills.
ti
6. During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in waters
of the U.S., or protected riparian buffers.

Mr. Johnson
March 17, 2006
7. The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream above and below the crossing should not be
modified. Disturbed floodplains and streams should be restored to natural geomorphic
conditions.
8. Any riprap used must not interfere with thalweg performance and aquatic life passage during low
flow conditions.
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. No rock, sand or other materials shall be dredged from the stream channel except where
authorized by this certification.
12. All work shall be. performed during low or normal flow conditions.
13. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or
adjacent to surface waters is prohibited.
14. NCDOT and its authorized agents shall conduct its activities in a manner consistent with State
water quality standards (including any requirements resulting from compliance with §303(d) of
the Clean Water Act) and any other appropriate requirements of State and Federal law. If DWQ
determines that such standards or laws are not being met (including the failure to sustain a
designated or achieved use) or that State or federal law is being violated, or that further
conditions are necessary to assure compliance, DWQ may reevaluate and modify this
certification.
15. A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be posted on the construction site at all times. In
addition, the Water Quality Certification and all subsequent modifications, if any, shall be
maintained with the Division Engineer and the on-site project manager.
16. The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary located within the construction corridor approved
by this authorization shall be clearly marked by highly visible fencing prior to any land disturbing
activities. Impacts to areas within the fencing are prohibited unless otherwise authorized by this
certification.
17. There shall be no excavation from, or waste disposal into, jurisdictional wetlands or waters
associated with this permit without appropriate modification. Should waste or borrow sites be
located in wetlands or streams, compensatory mitigation will be required since that is a direct
impact from road construction activities.
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 that conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of
Administrative Hearings, 6714 MSC, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This certification and its conditions are
final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.

NCDOT Highway Div. 8
Subject: 401 Water Quality Certification for SR-1131 Chatham County
DWQ # 20021558
Contained in this package are the modifications you requested in your February 2, 2006 letter for
the re-certification of DWQ # 20021558 on SR-1131 in Chatham County. Included is a modified
plan drawing that shows the location of the existing pipe, and our generic design for a temporary
diversion. Because this pipe is located within an intermittent stream channel, it will be possible for
construction to be done under dry conditions. Any construction at this location will be preformed
under the specifications listed in current version of the NCDOT Best management Practices
Manual for Construction and Maintenance Activities. A diversion will only be installed if
conditions require it. According to USACOE the use of movable devices (concrete barriers or
sheet metal plates) for temporary diversion of stream channels are not considered as fill materials
under sec. 404 of the Clean Water Act. The design we have submitted utilizes these devices and
does not constitute an increase in impacts to the waters of the United States.
To our knowledge there is no work planned to the ditch line or to any other erosion control or,
storm water control devices at this crossing. If any storm water devices are needed for this project
they will be appropriate to the site and installed in accordance with the NCDOT BMP Manual.
We do not anticipate any discharge of storm water from this project that would adversely effect
water quality.
Thank you for your assistance in this matter. If you have any questions or require any additional
information please contact me.

Re: Water Quality Certification for Proposed Improvements to SR 1131 in Chatham County, DWQ No.
20021558
Dear Mr. Johnson:
The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your submittal for a 401 Water Quality Certification for the
aforementioned project. Review of your application revealed it lacking necessary information required
for making an informed permit decision. The permit application was deficient in the following areas:
The drawings provided in your application do not show the existing pipe location at the road
crossing of the UT to Rocky River. Please provide drawings that show the existing pipe
locations, orientations, and dimensions.
It is unclear why there is no stream diversion drawing for the pipe replacement. All pipe
replacements shall be done in a dry work area. Please provide a diversion plan or provide an
explanation for how a dry work area will be maintained during the pipe replacement. If a
diversion is to be used, the temporary impacts for the diversion should be listed in the Stream
Impacts table in the PCN.
Therefore, pursuant to 15A NCAC 2H .0507(a)(5), we will have to place the permit application on hold
until we are supplied the necessary information. Furthermore, until the information is received by the NC
Division of Water Quality, we request (by copy of this letter) that the US Army Corps of Engineers place
the permit application on hold.
Hopefully, we can work together to expedite the processing of your permit application. If you have any
questions or require additional information, please contact Brian Wrenn at 919-733-5715.

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.
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.
-9-
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/strm,izide.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
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 http://h2o.enr.state.ne.ushN-rp/index.htm. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:

required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Meuse), 15A NCAC 213 .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 213 .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )?
Yes ? No N If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.
Zone* (sqImpact uare feet) Multiplier Required Mitigation
1 3
2 1.5
Total
* Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an
additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.
-11-
If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0260.
XI. Stormwater (DWQ Only)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
Neither the current impervious cover nor the new proposed impervious cover (gravel road bed or
asphalt pavement) will exceed 30% of the total site area. Erosion control devices appropriate to
the site will be utilized on this project which may include silt fences, check dams and storm
water retaining basins
XII. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Only)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
XHL Violations (DWQ Only)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Mr. W. F. Rosser, P.E., Division Engineer
NCDOT, Division 8
PO Box 1067
Aberdeen, NC 28315
Dear Mr. Rosser:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill material in 60
linear feet of streams for the purpose of replacing an existing culvert and grading and paving SR 1131 in Chatham
County. The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated September 24, 2002. After
reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number
3375. This certification corresponds to the Nationwide Permit 14 issued by the Corps of Engineers. 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 valid, solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified below).
Should your project change, you must notify the DWQ 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 toxemain valid, you must adhere to the
conditions listed in the attached certification.
1.) Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of
Completion Form" to notify DWQ 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 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 that conforms
to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447,
Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.

Dear Mr. Ridings:
Subject: Chatham County - SR 1131
LYNDO TIPPETT
SECRETARY
In an effort to obtain the permits needed for pipe replacement on SR 1131 in Chatham County,
we are providing the pre construction notification application and the supporting materials.
The project is on an intermittent stream that is outside of the critical habitat area for the Cape Fear
Shiner.
To our knowledge there are No High Quality Waters or Outstanding Water Resources occurring
in the project area. We anticipate that these activities will be authorized under Nationwide Permit
Number 14. Any detours required for this project will be done off site. NCDOT Best
Management Practices will be implemented during all construction projects.
This letter and a copy of the application materials will be submitted to N.C. Division of Water
Quality, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and U.S. Army Corps. of Engineers for approval.
If you have any questions or comments, or need additional information, please contact our office
at [phone]. Thank you for your cooperation in this matter.
Sincerely,
Art C. King

draw down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.):
Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area:
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.
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.
-9-
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 determiniljg 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/stnngide.htm].
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
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 http://h2o.enr.state.nc.u5in? Andex.htm. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet):
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
