Upon review of your request for 401 Water Quality Certification
to place fill material in 3400 square feet of wetlands or waters which
are tributary to Chocowinity Creek for utility line construction
located at NC 33 in Beaufort County as described in your submittal
dated 3 February 1994, we have determined that the proposed fill can
be covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 2664. A copy of
the General Certification is attached. This Certification may be used
in qualifying for coverage under Corps of Engineers' Nationwide Permit
No. 12.
If this Certification is unacceptable to you, you have the right
to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30)
days following receipt of this Certification. This request must be in
the form of a written petition conforming to Chapter 150B of the North
Carolina General Statutes and filed with the Office of Administrative

MEMO
TO: John Parker
FROM: John Dorne?
RE: DEM comments on Town of Chocowinity utility line
Beaufort County
DEM # 94090
DEM has reviewed the plans for the Town of Chocowinity to
build utility lines across Chocowinity Creek to serve Cypress
Landing subdivision. DEM has no objection to the construction of
the utility lines. You asked whether the Town of Chocowinity and
City of Washington have wastewater treatment capacity available
for use by this development. According to the DEM Washington
Regional Office, there is wastewater capacity for the first phase
of this development in Cypress Landing. However there is not
sufficient capacity for the entire development. If (as you
indicated) this first phase of the development will require
100,000 gallons of capacity, the current Washington treatment
plant can treat this volume.
Please call me at 733-1786 if you have any questions.

8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing to construct wastewater and potable water lines
to serve Cypress Landing residential development.
' TOWN OF CHOCOWINITY
Beaufort County
Environmental setting
The project site is where Chocowinity Creek, a tributary of Chocowinity Bay and the
Pamlico River, crosses NC 33 approximately 1 mile east of the Town of Chocowinity in
Beaufort County. At the site, the creek has a width of approximately 170' and a average depth
of -3' at normal water level. In the center of the creek is an island which is approximately 40'
in width and is vegetated by various types of wetland vegetation such as uncu fe fusus, Hibiscu
VR,, 1So idago 5pp,, etc. On both the east and west sides of the creek, the adjacent lands have
been previously disturbed by road construction. These areas are vegetated by a mixture of
upland grasses.
Project proposal
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide wastewater collection and to provide
potable water to the proposed Cypress Landing Development which is being constructed by
Weyerhaeuser Real Estate on Chocowinity Bay. The development along with its amenities were
previously permitted by the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management in 1989 when
CAMA Major Development Permit No. 181-89 was issued. At that time, the development was
proposing its own land application sewage disposal system and well system for potable water.
Since that time, arrangements have been made with the Town of Chocowinity and the City of
Washington to provide the services. In order to construct the necessary lines, Chocowinity
Creek must be crossed resulting in the application that is being considered. The applicant is now
proposing the following:
(1) The construction of 14,000 linear feet of 6" sanitary sewer force main and a 10"
water main along SR 1123 and NC 33 for connection into existing Town of
Chocowinity lines. At Chocowinity Creek, the lines will be placed within
existing NC Department of Transportation right-a-ways or the north side of NC
33. The lines will be placed approximately 10' apart within a subaqueous trench.
The trench will be f 170' in length ±20' wide and the pipes will be placed a
minimum of -3' below the existing creek bottom. Once the pipes are in place,
the trench will be allowed to backfill naturally. The sides of the creek will be
stabilized with 4" Geogrid along the disturbed area.
Town of Chocowinity

Page 2
Environmental impact
The following environmental impacts will occur:
(1) ±800 sq. ft. of wetland vegetation as described under Environmental setting will
be excavated.
(2) ±2,600 sq. ft. of open water area will be excavated.
(3) Some short term turbidity will occur during the trench excavation and pipe
placement.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
This project consists of the extension of public water and wastewater utilities to service the
proposed Cypress Landing Company Development. Specifically, the extension includes
approximately 14,000 linear feet of a 6-inch sanitary sewer force main and a 10-inch water main.
The proposed route is from the development, northerly along NCSR 1123, NC 33, and Bragaw
Lane in the Town of Chocowinity.
The portion of this project to which this permit application applies is the subaqueous crossing
of these utility pipes under Chocowinity Creek. This crossing will be made in NCDOT ROW,
along the east side of the bridge carrying NC 33 over the creek.
The application information is that associated directly with this utility project, except that
information in Section S Upland Development pertains to the Cypress Landing project itself
which has been permitted previously and separately.

FROM: John Dorney

RE: DEM comments on Town of Chocow=pity utility line
Beaufort County
DEM has reviewed the plans for the Town of Chocowinity to build utility lines across Chocowinity Creek to serve Cypress
Landing subdivision. DEM has no objection to the construction of
the utility lines. You asked whether the Town of Chocowinity and
City of Washington have wastewater treatment capacity available
for use by this development. According to the DEM Washington
Regional Office, there is wastewater capacity for some
development in Cypress Landing. However there is not sufficient
capacity for the entire development. If (as you indicated) this
phase of the development will require 100,000 gallons of
capacity, the current Washington treatment plant can treat this
volume. Fs to 1 t- o- CAP it?yy?oye h 1 e-

8. PROJECT SUMMARY: The applicant is proposing to construct wastewater and potable water lines
to serve Cypress Landing residential development.
TOWN OF CHOCOWINITY
Beaufort County
Environmental setting-
The project site is where Chocowinity Creek, a tributary of Chocowinity Bay and the
Pamlico River, crosses NC 33 approximately 1 mile east of the Town of Chocowinity in
Beaufort County. At the site, the creek has a width of approximately 170' and a average depth
of -3' at normal water level. In the center of the creek is an island which is approximately 40'
in width and is vegetated by various types of wetland vegetation such as Juncus effusus, Hibiscus
Vp., Solidag-o Vp., etc. On both the east and west sides of the creek, the adjacent lands have
been previously disturbed by road construction. These areas are vegetated by a mixture of
upland grasses.
Project proposal
The purpose of the proposed project is to provide wastewater collection and to provide
potable water to the proposed Cypress Landing Development which is being constructed by
Weyerhaeuser Real Estate on Chocowinity Bay. The development along with its amenities were
previously permitted by the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management in 1989 when
CAMA Major Development Permit No. 181-89 was issued. At that time, the development was
proposing its own land application sewage disposal system and well system for potable water.
Since that time, arrangements have been made with the Town of Chocowinity and the City of
Washington to provide the services. In order to construct the necessary lines, Chocowinity
Creek must be crossed resulting in the application that is being considered. The applicant is now
proposing the following:
(1) The construction of 14,000 linear feet of 6" sanitary sewer force main and a 10"
water main along SR 1123 and NC 33 for connection into existing Town of
Chocowinity lines. At Chocowinity Creek, the lines will be placed within
existing NC Department of Transportation right-a-ways or the north side of NC
33. The lines will be placed approximately 10' apart within a subaqueous trench.
The trench will be ± 170' in length ±20' wide and the pipes will be placed a
minimum of -3' below the existing creek bottom. Once the pipes are in place,
the trench will be allowed to backfill naturally. The sides of the creek will be
stabilized with 4" Geogrid along the disturbed area.

Environmental impact
The following environmental impacts will occur:
(1) ±800 sq. ft. of wetland vegetation as described under Environmental setting will
be excavated.
(2) ±2,600 sq. ft. of open water area will be excavated.
(3) Some short term turbidity will occur during the trench excavation and pipe
placement.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
This project consists of the extension of public water and wastewater utilities to service the
proposed Cypress Landing Company Development. Specifically, the extension includes
approximately 14,000 linear feet of a 6-inch sanitary sewer force main and a 10-inch water main.
The proposed route is from the development, northerly along NCSR 1123, NC 33, and Bragaw
Lane in the Town of Chocowinity.
The portion of this project to which this permit application applies is the subaqueous crossing
of these utility pipes under Chocowinity Creek. This crossing will be made in NCDOT ROW,
along the east side of the bridge carrying NC 33 over the creek.
The application information is that associated directly with this utility project, except that
information in Section 5 Upland Development pertains to the Cypress Landing project itself
which has been permitted previously and separately.

PROJECT NARRATIVE
This project consists of the extension of public water and wastewater utilities to service the
proposed Cypress Landing Company Development. Specifically, the extension includes
approximately 14,000 linear feet of a 6-inch sanitary sewer force main and a 10-inch water main.
The proposed route is from the development, northerly along NCSR 1123, NC 33, and Bragaw
Lane in the Town of Chocowinity.
The portion of this project to which this permit application applies is the subaqueous crossing
of these utility pipes under Chocowinity Creek. This crossing will be made in NCDOT ROW,
along the east side of the bridge carrying NC 33 over the creek.
The application information is that associated directly with this utility project, except that
information in Section 5 Upland Development pertains to the Cypress Landing project itself
which has been permitted previously and separately.
