Reference the Department of the Army permit issued to the North Carolina Department
of Transportation (NCDOT) on March 24, 2014, to authorize the discharge of fill material into
waters of the United States, for construction of TIP No. U-0071; East End Connector; from US
147 between Ellis Road and Briggs Avenue, to NC 98 at US 70, in Durham County, North
Carolina. Also, please reference your April 1, 2015 letter, requesting modification of the permit
for a net increase of permanent riprap impacts to streams of 127 linear feet, and a net decrease of
temporary impacts to streams of 65 linear feet. These changes in impacts result from revising the
permit impact drawings to accurately reflect the contract construction drawings, at Permit Sites
7, 17, and 23. Additional mitigation is not proposed because the permanent riprap impacts will
not cause a loss of stream.
We have reviewed the requested modification, and determined that it is appropriate and
reasonable, and that no public notice is required for this modification. Therefore, the permit is
hereby modified to authorize net iiicrease of permanent riprap impacts to streams of 127 linear
feet, and a net decrease of temporary impacts to streams of 65 linear feet, as shown on the
enclosed Permit Drawings, Sheets 20, 21, 36, 37, 60, 61, 74, 75, 90 and 91, of 91, revised March
16, 2015.
All conditions of the permit, including the expiration date of December 31, 2019, and the
mitigation requirements, remain applicable.
