Guilford County, North Carolina
Corblu Project No. 02- 041901 — Line 22 Exposure
Dear Mr. Brown:
On behalf of our client, Colonial Pipeline Company (CPC), Corblu Ecology Group, LLC ( Corblu)
respectfully requests authorization for the above referenced project pursuant to the use of
Nationwide Permit (NWP) No. 18 for Minor Discharges associated with the required
maintenance /pipeline protection of three existing and serviceable CPC pipelines (Lines 22, 23,
and 24). The proposed actions consist of streambed stabilization to cover exposed pipelines,
pipeline maintenance, and protection within CPC's maintained right -of -way (ROW). The
proposed activities will require temporary disturbance to Hickory Creek, a perennial stream
located in Guilford County (35.99166 °N, 79.84962 °W), North Carolina (Figure 1).
Background
CPC is committed to operating their pipelines and support facilities in a manner that protects the
safety of the public, the environment, and its workforce. The proposed pipeline maintenance is
required to restore pipeline protection and integrity. The ROW contains three CPC pipelines
that transport refined petroleum, Line 22 (16 -inch diameter), and Lines 23 and 24 (8 -inch
diameter). Recent heavy rain events have caused lateral migration of the streambed, and the
associated downgrading has exposed Line 23 within the stream channel; thus, the require
Pee- Construction Notification — NWP 18
Hickory Creek - Exposed Line
V,

Corblu Project No 02- 041901
pipeline protection has been lost. As required by the U S. Department of Transportation
(USDOT), the pipeline regulatory authority, CPC must inspect, repair, and add pipeline
protection for the exposed pipeline at this location.
Proposed Activity in Waters of'the U.S.
The maintenance activity will require temporary disturbance to approximately 75 linear feet of
Hickory Creek to stabilize the streambed and banks to protect the existing pipelines at the
project location
To ensure the integrity of the Line 23 at this location, CPC' will initially inspect ,the line for any
damage. This will require CPC to excavate a small pit at the maintenance location, which will
'allow CPC personnel to inspect the 'integrity of the subject pipeline segment To minimize
sedimentation to Hickory Creek during inspection and subsequent maintenance activities,
dam(s) constructed of sand bags, steel plates; or water - inflatable plastic dams will be
temporarily placed upstream of the maintenance .area The stream flow will be pumped around
the maintenance area and discharged immediately downstream via an energy dissipater to
prevent stream scour, The pump will be sufficiently sized to accommodate the stream flow
(Appendix A)
As an alternative method to using a pump, CPC may use a steel pipe flume to convey the
stream flow through the reach of stream to be disturbed. The flume will, be used to maintain
flow to the downstream side of the disturbed area, and the excavation will be carried out under
the flume (Appendix B) Both techniques allow the maintenance to take place without contact to
flowing water (i e, "in the dry"), thus reducing downstream sedimentation
Following the pipeline inspection and potential repairs, the stream banks reshaped to,'increase
stability and prepare the `bank for the proposed matting system. The pipeline will be protected
using pre - casted articulated grout revetment mats placed within CPC existing ROW, over Lines
'22, 23, and 24 (Appendix G) Specifically„ the articulated grout mats and rip -rap will be placed,
within 75 linear feet of the stream channel ,and, bank The quantity of "fill material" below the,
plane of the ordinary high water mark will not exceed 24 cubic,yards

CPC's Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Plan
Colonial, Pipeline Company
Soil Erosion and Sediment Control Plan
For
PikWine Msintenanat-ActIvitles
®ldective
Disturbed areas are to be restored as close as practical to their original eontoursand
conditions,so that once vegetation is reestablished, erosion wfihbe redueed,to the same
or lower level that existed prior to,distarbanc&
Description
Tbis'section dunes the soil erosion and sediment control measures that Colonial
Pipeline Company wM h% lement during and aeber on and of the pipeline
are complete. The objectives of this plan are to gismal,gaidelines for
controDiag Tiro on end sedimentation andto specify cifiria. fix ensitive or pardixilarly
suable sot areas. Tie pion incorporates measures to control erosion and
sedimentation including miaimizmg cover removal, limiting the time of exposure,
lin iting the flow of water onto the disturbed right-of -way, and ffite=g or settling out
sediment fom water flowing from the.rigGt -of -way.
The primary objective of the,soil erosion,and sediment control.pIan;is,to reduce the area
and duration of soildisturbance and,reestablish;permanent vegetation sasoon,atier
conshuction,as possible, thereby m;ri, —*�+T long -term erosion and sedimentation.
Some erosion is inevitable during construction; however, the plan includes measures to
,reduce erosion to the minimum practical.
Colonial Pipeline Company plin "to rednoe sold erosion and provide sediment control
during the repair of the pipeline at the project site by incorporating the following
measures:
• Water pumped fromthe construction area as part of the dewatering operation
from the e=avation wiillibe 5ltered'through silt,fiit!ration bass and discharged to
a well- vegetated area.
• All work wM be eonfined'witliin the existing right -of -way: BU&edhaybalwand sih
*nce wM befinsWW around the worb*e�and maintained until vegetadw is esW)H shed.
Proper cantob wA be added iinewsawy daring construction.
• All'ternos and conditions within Nationwide Permit 3 willbe followed.
• Erosion control measures will be installed prior to oonducting any sod disturbing
activities associated with the pipeline, maintenance activity:
• Clearing,of vegetation will be kept to an absolute minimum and confined to the
existing pipeline easement area. The easement area is 50 feet in width and devoid
of large trees The right of way is vegetated with undergrowth, grasses and other
short vegetation.
• Vegetation wig be,reestablished within disturbed area and along stream banks
as soon, as possiiblempon completion of work. Disturbed areas will be seeded
with a wetland seed mixture
• All erosion and sediment control measures will be inspected every two weeks,at a
minimum and after every sigaificart ,xainfall event,of o.5 inclr,or more until
disturbed areas have been stabilized. Identified damages to control measures
must be repaired immediately.
Refiase and Waisbe Disposal
CQloniaYs r epreseMdve will not aIlow the Contractor to discard a w litter, including
Paper, bottles, cans, rem,sacks, w ding rod stubs, fuel, cranhcaseArainm& casting
materials, equipment, and junk pipe in the ditch or along t1wright -*f -way. All refuse
must be, collected and disposed in accordance with oomp®ay spedons. Personnel
wM be instnuted °regarding the correctWocedure for waste disposal.
Maintenance/Laspeadon Prooedures
The following inspection and maintenancepractices wffbe.implemented to.maintain
erosion and sediment controls:
L AD control measures wID be inspected every twoweelm at a,minimum and Mowin
arty storm event of 0.5 inch orgreater.
2. All control measures will,be maintainedin good worhug order. If a repair is
necessary, it W be initiated within 24 hours of the report.
g. Built-up sediment will be,removed from silt. fences when it has reached one - third the
height -of the fence.
4. Silt fences will be inspected for depth of sediment, tears, seeure attachment of the
fabric to the ton rm,
e posts, and 8placement of the posts in the V=cL
5. Temporary and,permanent seeding and planting will be inspected for bare spots,
washouts,andnheatthy growth.
6. Colonial Pipeline Company will select individuals to be responsible for inspections,
maintenance and repair activities,, and completion of the inspecttan and
'maintenance report. Personnel selected for,inspection and maintenance
responsibilities will receive training from Colonial Pipeline Company or its
representative. Personnel must be trained in all practices 'necessary for maintaining
the erosion +an&sediment controis,nsed on-site.

A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO'TNWs
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resourcesis a TNW, complete
Section III.A.1 and Section III.D.1. only;, if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2
and Section III.D.1.; otherwise, see Section III.B below

B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non - navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent,
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year -round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is'also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year -round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic, resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetlandthatis adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts,and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as,a matter of law.
If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a,wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the
waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus, evaluation must
considerlhe tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is
the tributary,, or its•adjacent wetlands, or both. If the.JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for,any onsite wetlands; and Section III.113 for all wetlands,adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below.

Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions,being .performed
C. SIGNIFICANT PLEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus,analysis will,assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any, wetlands, adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect,the chemical, physical, and biological'integrity
of a'TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary,, in, combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has,more than ,a speculativeror,insubstantial ,effect on theFchemical, physical „and /or,biological integrity of,a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate,to determine significant nexus based solely on any'specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between theifeatures documented and the,effects on the TNW, as1dentified in the,Rapanos Guidance and
+discussed,in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors,to`consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any),`have the- capacity•to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW9
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and,lifecycle support,funchons for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young -for species that are present in the TNW9
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs9
40 Does the tnbutary,zm combination with its,adjacent wetlands (if any), havc�other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW9
Note: -the above list,of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below:
1. Significant nexus,findings for non -RPW that has no adjacent wetlands,and flows directly�or indirectly into TNWs. Explain
findings of,presence`ovabsence of significant nexus below,,based on the.tnbutary itself, then go to Section III D

3d Explain the'purpose of,the�proposed project
Pipelines present on the project site are either exposed or no longer have protective cover as required by the U S Department
of Transportation
3e Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of egwpment,to be used:
The maintenance ,activity will require temporary disturbance to approximately 75 linear feet of Hickory Creek to stabilize 'th
treambed and banks to protect the existing pipelines at the prolect'location
To, ensure the, integrity of the Line 23 at this location, CPC will initially inspect the line forany damage This will require CPC to
excavate a small pit at the maintenance location, which will allow CPC personnel to inspect the integrity of the subject pipeline
segment To minimize sedimentation to Hickoy Creek during inspection and subsequent maintenance activities, dam(s)
constructed of sand bags, steel plates, or water - inflatable plastic dams will be temporarily installed upstream of the maintenance
area The stream flow will be pumped around the maintenance area and discharged immediately downstream via an energ
dissipater to prevent stream scour The pump will be sufficiently sized to accommodate the,stream flow (Appendix A)
s an alternative method to using a pump, CPC may use a steel pipe flume to convey the stream flow through the reach o
tream to be disturbed The flume will be used to maintain ,flow to the downstream side of the disturbed area, and the
excavation will be ,earned out under the flume (Appendix B) Both techniques allow the maintenance to take place without
contact to flowing,water (i e , "in the dry'), thus reducing downstream sedimentation
Following the pipeline inspection and potential repairs, the stream banks reshaped to increase stability of the proposed matting
system The pipeline Will be protected using pre- casted articulated grout revetment mats placed within CPC existing ROW, over
Lines 22, 23, and 24 (Appendix C) Specifically, the articulated grout mats and np -rap will be placed within 75 linear feet of the
stream channel and bank. The quantity of "fill material" below the plane of the ordinary high water mark will not exceed 24 cube
yards
During the maintenance and subsequent, stabilization CPC's Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan will be implemented
to protect the stream from sedimentation {Appendix D). There will be minimal disturbance to jurisdictional waters located
outside)of CPC's ROW

D. Impact Justification and Mitigation
1. Avoidance and Minimization
,la Specifically describe measures'taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project
The,proposed pipeline maintenance, activities have been design to avoid and minimize impacts`to jurisdictional water to the
maximum extenfipracticable The stream disturbances do not exceed' any of'the USACE; Wilmington District, Nationwide permit
Regional Conditions requiring mitigation [refer to USACE, Wilmington District Regional Condition 3 (2) below] Nevertheless, the
proposed stream channel and bank stabdizations completed,to maintain and protect the existing pipelines will result.in improved
water quality by reducing future,sod'and bank erosion, Which will offset the disturbances associated with the require, pipeline
maintenance To ensure that the existing plant community is reestablished follow the proposed activity, CPC'will segregate the
topsoil containing seeds and rhizomes from the rest of the excavated soil Upon completion of the maintenance activity, the
excavated area will be backfilled, and the topsoil will be retumed`to the -top ofAthe excavated area
1b Specifically describe measures taken to.avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques
Equipment used during the, proposed project will be operated from the stream banks to avoid and unnecessary impacts to the
stream channel caused by machinery
