IN REPLY REFER TO
Regulatory Branch
Action ID No. 199702348 and Nationwide Permit No. 26 (Headwaters and Isolated
Waters)
Mr. David Griffin
Stanly County Airport Authority
40659 Airport Road
New London, North Carolina 28127
Dear Mr. Griffin:
Reference your February 5, 1997 application for Department of the Army
(DA) authorization to impact approximately 0.56 acre of headwater stream
channel and wetlands along Little Mountain Creek at the Stanly County airport
located off of SR 1549, north of Palestine, in Stanly County, North Carolina.
The purpose for the project is to facilitate the construction of a parallel
taxiway which will be located adjacent to the eastern edge of the existing
runway.
For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program, the
"December 13, 1996 Federal Register, Final Notice of Issuance, Reissuance, and
Modification of Nationwide Permits (61 CFR 65874)" listed nationwide permits.
Authorization was provided, pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act,
for discharges of dredged or fill material into headwaters and isolated waters
provided that the activity meets all of the following criteria:
a. The discharge does not cause the loss of more than three (3) acres
of waters of the United States nor cause the loss of waters of the
United States for a distance greater than 500 linear feet of a stream bed;
b. For discharges causing the loss of greater than 1/3 acre of waters
of the United States, the permittee notifies the District Engineer in
accordance with the "Notification" general condition;
C. For discharges causing the loss of 1/3 acre or less of waters of the
United States, the permittee must submit a report within thirty (30) days of
completion of the work, containing the following information:
(1) Name, address, and telephone number of the permittee;
(2) Location of work;
(3) Description of the work; and,
(4) Type and acreage (or square feet) of the loss of waters of the
United States (e.g., 1/10 acre of marsh and 50 square feet of a stream)

-2-
d. For discharges in special aquatic sites, including wetlands, the
notification must also include a delineation of affected special aquatic
sites, including wetlands; and
e. The discharge, including all attendant features, both temporary and
permanent, is part of a single and complete project.
Whenever any other nationwide permit is used in conjunction with this
nationwide permit, the total acreage of impacts to waters of the United States
of all nationwide permits combined cannot exceed three (3) acres.
Your work is authorized by this nationwide permit provided it is
accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions and provided
you receive a Section 401 water quality certification from the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality. You should contact Mr. John Dorney, telephone
[phone], regarding water quality certification. This nationwide permit
does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain other required State or
local approval.
This verification will be valid until the nationwide permit expires,
which will occur on December 13, 1998. All activity under the terms and
conditions of this nationwide permit must be completed before the permit
expires. It is incumbent upon you to remain informed of changes to the
nationwide permits, which will be announced by public notice when they occur.
We have evaluated potential impacts of your activity, and we have
determined that your proposal will not likely have an adverse affect on any
endangered species.
When you have completed your work and any required mitigation, please
sign and return the enclosed certification form.
If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Steve Chapin in our
Asheville Regulatory Field office at [phone].
Sincerely,
r? 2 Robert W. Johnson

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Dorney
FROM: Jeanette Poweff f.
THROUGH: Bradley Bennett SUBJECT: Stanly County Airport Taxiway Project
Stanly County
DWQ#970106
The stormwater management plan designed by Talbert & Bright to treat runoff from
the subject facility has been reviewed. Based upon the July 3, 1997 submittal of revised
design calculations and plans, the stormwater management systems should perform as
acceptable water quality control structures to treat runoff from the proposed taxiway
project.
Submitted design revisions specify a dry detention basin, grassed swale and vegetated filter
strip on the south end of the project. This system will treat runoff from station 10+00 to
37+30. The revisions also include upgrading the existing sediment basin on the east side
of the project to perform as an appropriately designed dry detention basin. Revised plans
are attached for your convenience.

DESCRIPTION
901-1.1 This item shall consist of soil preparation, seeding, fertilizing and liming the
areas shown on the plans or as directed by the ENGINEER in accordance
with these specifications.
MATERIALS
901-2.1 SEED. The species and application rates of grass, legume, and cover-crop
seed furnished shall be those stipulated herein. Seed shall conform to the
requirements of Fed. Spec. JJJ-S-181.
Seed shall be furnished separately or in mixtures in standard containers with
the seed name, lot number, net weight, percentages of purity and of
germination and hard seed, and percentage of maximum weed seed content
clearly marked for each kind of seed. The Contractor shall furnish the
Engineer duplicate signed copies of a statement by the vendor certifying that
each lot of seed has been tested by a recognized laboratory for seed testing
within 6 months of date of delivery. This statement shall include: name and
address of laboratory, date of test, lot number for each kind of seed, and the
results of tests as to name, percentages of purity and of germination, and
percentage of weed content for each kind of seed furnished, and, in case of
a mixture, the proportions of each kind of seed.
The seeding mixture shall have a maximum of 2'/2% of weed seed and a
minimum of 90% by weight of pure live seed. The seed mixture shall consist
of a blend of two turf type tall fescues (90% of blend) and two or more
improved Kentucky bluegrass varieties (10% of blend). The seed mixture
shall be applied at the rate of 250 pounds of mixture per acre of seeded
area.
The preferred seeding dates are August 20 to October 31 and February 1 to
April 1. Use of this seeding mixture outside the preferred seeding dates
shall be approved by the ENGINEER. If Contractor cannot seed for
permanent cover, temporary seeding shall be used in accordance with
requirements of Item P-156 of this specification.
T-901-1
".t • 3
901-2.2 LIME. Lime shall be ground limestone containing not less than 85% of total
carbonates, and shall be ground to such fineness that 90% will pass through
a No. 20 mesh sieve and 50% will pass through a No. 100 mesh sieve.
Coarser material will be acceptable, providing the rates of application are
increased to provide not less than the minimum quantities and depth
specified in the special provisions on the basis of the two sieve requirements
above. Dolomitic lime or a high magnesium lime shall contain at least 10%
of magnesium oxide. Lime shall be applied at the rate of'4,000 pounds per
acre. All liming materials shall conform to the requirements of ASTM C 602.
901-2.3 FERTILIZER. Fertilizer shall be standard commercial fertilizers supplied
separately or in mixtures containing the percentages of total nitrogen,
available phosphoric acid, and water-soluble potash. They shall be applied
at the rate and to the depth specified herein, and shall meet the
requirements of Fed. Spec. 0-F-241 and applicable state laws. They shall
be furnished in standard containers with name, weight, and guaranteed
analysis of contents clearly marked thereon. No cyanamide compounds or
hydrated lime shall be permitted in mixed fertilizers.
The fertilizers may be supplied in one of the following forms:
A. A dry, free-flowing fertilizer suitable for application by a common
fertilizer spreader,
B. A finely-ground fertilizer soluble in water, suitable for application by
power sprayers; or
C. A granular or pellet form suitable for application by blower equipment.
Fertilizers shall be 10-10-10 commercial fertilizer and shall be spread at the
rate of 1,000 pounds per acre.
901-2.4 SOIL FOR REPAIRS. The soil for fill and topsoiling of areas to be repaired
shall be at least of equal quality to that which exists in areas adjacent to the
area to be repaired. The soil shall be relatively free from large stones, roots,
stumps, or other materials that will interfere with subsequent sowing of seed,
compacting, and establishing turf, and shall be approved by the ENGINEER
before being placed.
T-901-2
W
CONSTRUCTION METHODS
901-3.1 ADVANCE PREPARATION AND CLEANUP. After grading of areas has
been completed and before applying fertilizer and ground limestone, areas
to be seeded shall be raked or otherwise cleared of stones larger than 2
inches in any diameter, sticks, stumps, and other debris which might
interfere with sowing of seed, growth of grasses, or subsequent maintenance
of grass-covered areas. If any damage by erosion or other causes has
occurred after the completion of grading and before beginning the
application of fertilizer and ground limestone, the Contractor shall repair
such damage. This may include filling gullies, smoothing irregularities, and
repairing other incidental damage.
An area to be seeded shall be considered a satisfactory seedbed without
additional treatment if it has recently been thoroughly loosened and worked
to a depth of not less than 5 inches as a result of grading operations and, if
immediately prior to seeding, the top 3 inches of soil is loose, friable,
reasonably free from large clods, rocks, large roots, or other undesirable
matter, and if shaped to the required grade.
However, when the area to be seeded is sparsely sodded, weedy, barren
and unworked, or packed and hard, any grass and weeds shall first be cut
or otherwise satisfactorily disposed of, and the soil then scarified or
otherwise loosened to a depth not less than 5 inches. Clods shall be broken
and the top 3 inches of soil shall be worked into a satisfactory seedbed by
discing, or by use of cultipackers, rollers, drags, harrows, or other
appropriate means.
901-3.2 DRY APPLICATION METHOD.
A. Liming. Lime shall be applied separately and prior to the application
of any fertilizer or seed and only on seedbeds which have previously
been prepared as described above. The lime shall then be worked
into the top 3 inches of soil after which the seedbed shall again be
properly graded and dressed to a smooth finish.
B. Fertilizing. Following advance preparations and cleanup fertilizer
shall be uniformly spread at the rate which will provide not less than
the minimum quantity stated in paragraph 901-2.3.
T-901-3
C. Seeding. Grass seed shall be sown at the rate specified in
paragraph 901-2.1 immediately after fertilizing, and the fertilizer and
seed shall be raked within the depth range stated in the special
provisions. Seeds of legumes, either alone or in mixtures, shall be
inoculated before mixing or sowing, in accordance with the
instructions of the manufacturer of the inoculant. When seeding is
required at other than the seasons shown on the plans or in the
special provisions, a cover crop shall be sown by the same methods
required for grass and legume seeding.
D. Rolling. After the seed has been properly covered, the seedbed
shall be immediately compacted by means of an approved lawnroller,
weighing 40 to 65 pounds per foot of width for clay soil (or any soil
having a tendency to pack), and weighing 150 to 200 pounds per foot
of width for sandy or light soils.
901-3.3 WET APPLICATION METHOD.
A. General. The Contractor may elect to apply seed and fertilizer (and
lime, if required) by spraying them on the previously prepared
seedbed in the form of an aqueous mixture and by using the methods
and equipment described herein. The rates of application shall be as
specified in the special provisions.
B. Spraying Equipment. The spraying equipment shall have a
container or water tank equipped with a liquid level gauge calibrated
to read in increments not larger than 50 gallons over the entire range
of the tank capacity, mounted so as to be visible to the nozzle
operator. The container or tank shall also be equipped with a
mechanical power-driven agitator capable of keeping all the solids in
the mixture in complete suspension at all times until used.
The unit shall also be equipped with a pressure pump capable of
delivering 100 gallons per minute at a pressure of 100 pounds per
square inch. The pump shall be mounted in a line which will
recirculate the mixture through the tank whenever it is not being
sprayed from the nozzle. All pump passages and pipe lines shall be
capable of providing clearance for 5/8 inch solids. The power unit for
the pump and agitator shall have controls mounted so as to be
accessible to the nozzle operator. There shall be an indicating
T-901-4
4
pressure gauge connected and mounted immediately at the back of
the nozzle.
The nozzle pipe shall be mounted on an elevated supporting stand in
such a manner that it can be rotated through 360 degrees horizontally
and inclined vertically from at least 20 degrees below to at least 60
degrees above the horizontal. There shall be a quick-acting,
three-way control valve connecting the recirculating line to the nozzle
pipe and mounted so that the nozzle operator can control and
regulate the amount of flow of mixture delivered to the nozzle. At
least three different types of nozzles shall be supplied so that
mixtures may be properly sprayed over distance varying from 20 to
100 feet. One shall be a close-range ribbon nozzle, one a
medium-range ribbon nozzle, and one a long-range jet nozzle. For
case of removal and cleaning, all nozzles shall be connected to the
nozzle pipe by means of quick-release couplings.
In order to reach areas inaccessible to the regular equipment, an
extension hose at least 50 feet in length shall be provided to which
the nozzles may be connected.
C. Mixtures. Lime, if required, shall be applied separately, in the
quantity specified, prior to the fertilizing and seeding operations. Not
more than 220 pounds of lime shall be added to and mixed with each
100 gallons of water. Seed and fertilizer shall be mixed together in
the relative proportions specified, but not more than a total of 220
pounds of these combined solids shall be added to and mixed with
each 100 gallons of water.
All water used shall be obtained from fresh water sources and shall
be free from injurious chemicals and other toxic substances harmful
to plant life. Brackish water shall not be used at any time. The
Contractor shall identify to the ENGINEER all sources of water at
least 2 weeks prior to use. The ENGINEER may take samples of the
water at the source or from the tank at any time and have a laboratory
test the samples for chemical and saline content. The Contractor
shall not use any water from any source which is disapproved by the
ENGINEER following such tests.
All mixtures shall be constantly agitated from the time they are mixed
until they are finally applied to the seedbed. All such mixtures shall
T-901-5
a a
be used within 2 hours from the time they were mixed or they shall be
wasted and disposed of at locations acceptable to the ENGINEER.
D. Spraying. Lime, if required, shall be sprayed only upon previously
prepared seedbeds. After the applied lime mixture has dried, the lime
shall be worked into the top 3 inches, after which the seedbed shalt
again be properly graded and dressed to a smooth finish.
Mixtures of seed and fertilizer shall only be sprayed upon previously
prepared seedbeds on which the lime, if required, shall already have
been worked in. The mixtures shall be applied by means of a
high-pressure spray which shall always be directed upward into the
air so that the mixtures will fall to the ground like rain in a uniform
spray. Nozzles or sprays shall never be directed toward the ground
in such a manner as might produce erosion or runoff.
Particular care shall be exercised to insure that the application is
made uniformly and at the prescribed rate and to guard against
misses and overlapped areas. Proper predetermined quantities of
the mixture in accordance with specifications shall be used to cover
specified sections of known area. Checks on the rate and uniformity
of application may be made by observing the degree of wetting of the
ground or by distributing test sheets of paper or pans over the area
at intervals and observing the quantity of material deposited thereon.
On surfaces which are to be mulched as indicated by the plans or
designated by the ENGINEER, seed and fertilizer applied by the
spray method need not be raked into the soil or rolled. However, on
surfaces on which mulch is not to be used, the raking and rolling
operations will be required after the soil has dried.
901-3.4 MAINTENANCE OF SEEDED AREAS. The Contractor shall protect seeded
areas against traffic or other use by warning signs or barricades, as
approved by the ENGINEER. Surfaces gullied or otherwise damaged
following seeding shall be repaired by regrading and reseeding as directed.
The Contractor shall mow, water as directed, and otherwise maintain seeded
areas in a satisfactory condition until final inspection and acceptance of the
work.
After seeded area has been placed and tamped, it shall be carefully and
thoroughly watered during the germination period or as directed by the
T-901-6
• ::-- 0 •
ENGINEER. Additional watering shall also be done as required until final
acceptance. Application of water may be made by the use of hydraulic
seeding equipment, farm type irrigation equipment, or by other acceptable
means.
It will be required that the Contractor establish a good stand of grass of
uniform color and density to the satisfaction of the ENGINEER. If at the time
when the contract has been otherwise completed it is not possible to make
'A.
an adequate determination of the color, density, and uniformity of such stand
of grass, payment for the unaccepted portions of the areas seeded out of
season will be withheld until such time as these requirements have been
met.
METHOD OF MEASUREMENT
901-4.1 The quantity of seeding to be paid for shall be the number of acres
measured on the ground surface, completed and accepted.
BASIS OF PAYMENT
901-5.1 Payment shall be made at the contract unit price per acre or fraction thereof,
which price and payment shall be full compensation for furnishing and
placing all material and for all labor, equipment, tools, watering, and
incidentals necessary to complete the work prescribed in this item.
Payment will be made under:

Mulch material shall be furnished, hauled, and evenly applied on the area
shown on the plans or designated by the ENGINEER. Straw or hay shall
be spread over the surface to a uniform thickness at the rate of 2 to 3
tons per acre to provide a loose depth of not less than 1-1/2 inches nor
more than 3 inches. Other organic material shall be spread at the rate
directed by the ENGINEER. Mulch may be blown on the slopes and the
use of cutters in the equipment for this purpose will be permitted to the
extent that at least 95% of the mulch in place on the slope shall be 6
inches or more in length. When mulches applied by the blowing method
are cut, the loose depth in place shall be not less'than 1 inch nor more
than 2 inches.
908-3.2 SECURING MULCH. The mulch shall be held in place by light discing,
a very thin covering of topsoil, small brush, pins, stakes, wire mesh,
asphalt binder, or other adhesive material approved by the ENGINEER.
Where mulches have been secured by either of the asphalt binder
methods, it will not be permissible to walk on the slopes after the binder
has been applied. The Contractor is warned that in the application of
asphalt binder material he must take every precaution to guard against
damaging or disfiguring structures or property on or adjacent to the
areas worked and that he will be held responsible for any such damage
resulting from his/her operations.
T-908-2
A
If the ' 'peg and string" method is used, the mulch shall be secured by
the use of stakes or wire pins driven into the ground on 5-foot centers
or less. Binder twine shall be strung between adjacent stakes in straight
lines and crisscrossed diagonally over the mulch, after which the stakes
shall be firmly driven nearly flush to the ground to draw the twine down
tight onto the mulch.
908-3.3 CARE AND REPAIR.
A. The Contractor shall care for the mulched areas until final
acceptance of the project. Such care shall consist of providing
protection against traffic or other use by placing warning signs,
as approved by the ENGINEER, and erecting any barricades that
may be shown on the plans before or immediately after mulching
has been completed on the designated areas.
B. The Contractor shall be required to repair or replace any mulching
that is defective or becomes damaged until the project is finally
accepted. When, in the judgment of the ENGINEER, such defects
or damages are the result of poor workmanship or failure to meet
the requirements of the specifications, the cost of the necessary
repairs or replacement shall be borne by the Contractor.
However, once the Contractor has completed the mulching of any
area in accordance with the provisions of the specifications and
to the satisfaction of the ENGINEER, no additional work at his/her
expense will be required, but subsequent repairs and
replacements deemed necessary by the ENGINEER shall be made
by the Contractor and will be paid for as additional or extra work.
C. If the ' 'asphalt spray" method is used, all mulched surfaces shall
be sprayed with asphalt binder material so that the surface has a
uniform appearance. The binder shall be uniformly applied to the
mulch at the rate of approximately 8.0 gallons per 1,000 square
feet, or as directed by the ENGINEER, with a minimum of 6.0
gallons and a maximum of 10 gallons per 1,000 square feet
depending on the type of mulch and the effectiveness of the
binder securing it. Bituminous binder material may be sprayed on
the mulched slope areas from either the top or the bottom of the
slope. An approved spray nozzle shall be used. The nozzle shall
be operated at a distance of not less than 4 feet from the surface
T-908-3
#,W ...W
of the mulch and uniform distribution of the bituminous material
shall be required. A pump or an air compressor of adequate
capacity shall be used to insure uniform distribution of the
bituminous material.
D. If the "asphalt mix" method is used, the mulch shall be applied by
blowing, and the asphalt binder material shall be sprayed into the
mulch as it leaves the blower. The binder shall be uniformly
applied to the mulch at the rate of approximately 8.0 gallons per
1,000 square feet or as directed by the ENGINEER, with a
minimum of 6.0 gallons and a maximum of 10 gallons per 1,000
square feet depending on the type of mulch and the effectiveness
of the binder securing it.
METHOD OF MEASUREMENT
908-4.1 Mulching shall be measured in acres on the basis of the actual surface
area acceptably mulched.
BASIS OF PAYMENT
908-5.1 Payment will be made at the contract unit price per acre for mulching.
The price shall be full compensation for furnishing all materials and for
placing and anchoring the materials, and for all labor, equipment, tools,
and incidentals necessary to complete the item.
Payment will be made under:
Item T-908-5.1.1 Mulching--per acre

Note for Eric Galamb
From: Ron Ferrell on Tue, Apr 15, 1997 6:09 PM
Subject: Albemarle Airport
To: Eric Galamb
I received your fax and I assume your question is in regards to
payment into the fund for the stream impacts. If the only
reason they are doing the stream mitigation is the 401 then we
can accept their $$ after May 6. If the COE is also requiring
the stream mitigation they may or may not accept the payment.
We do not have a MOA at this time, hopefully soon. I will talk
with Budget to find out how the checks should be made out, etc.
There is also the bigger issue of when/if the stream restoration
will take place if they pay into the fund. My preference is
that after we evaluate the needs of the area, a project is
developed to address this and other impacts, which may or may
not include stream restoration. In other words if the needs
assessment indicate a need for improved trout habitat, how could
we best improve the trout habitat, through stream restoration,'
riparian or weland restoration, or combination of above.

Dear Mr. Griffin:
The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your plants for the discharge of fill material into 0.56
acres of waters and/or wetlands located at the existing Stanley County Airport expansion. Based on this
review, we have identified significant uses which would be removed by this project. These uses are
aquatic life in Little Mountain Creek. Furthermore, insufficient evidence is present in our files to
conclude that your project must be built as planned in waters and/or wetlands in accordance with 15A
NCAC 2H .0506. Therefore, we are moving toward denial of your 401 Certification as required by 15A
NCAC 2H .0507(e). Until we receive additional information, we are requesting (by copy of this letter)
that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of Coastal Management place your
project on administrative hold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position that your project must be constructed as
planned and that you have no practicable alternative to placing fill in these waters and/or wetlands. A
revised plan removing the rip rap from the stream substrate and a map with reduced wetland impacts
(0.21 acres to be removed). Any documentation such as maps and narrative that you can supply to
address alternative designs for your project may be helpful in our review of your 401 Certification. Also
this project will require compensatory mitigation as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506(h). Your stream
mitigation proposal is insufficient because the application lacks one At least 125 feet of stream mitigation
(similar size to Little Mountain Creek) will be needed to satisfy DWQ. Two copies of a stormwater plan
will need to be submitted to us. These plans should have provisions for wet detention basins. Please
respond within two weeks of the date of this letter by sending a copy of this information to me and one
-copy to Mr. Samir Bou-Ghazale at the Mooresville Regional Office at 919 North Main Street, Mooresville
NC 28115. If we do not hear from you in two weeks, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue
this project and we will consider the project as withdrawn. I can be reached at 919-733-1786 if you have
any questions.

Dear Mr. Galamb:
After your discussion with Talbert & Bright, Inc. on April 9, 1997, regarding the referenced project, it is
our understanding that three items need to be addressed in order to accept our request for a 401
Certification.
The first item is the removal of rip rap from the Little Mountain Creek Relocation. This has been
removed from the plans, and will be addressed in an Addendum. The second item was to either design a
125 foot stream mitigation plan; or purchase into the Wetland Restoration Program. If a stream
mitigation plan is designed, we will coordinate this effort with your office for your approval. It is our
understanding that if the Stanly County Airport Authority pays $15;625 to the Wetland Restoration
Program, we will not be required to mitigate for this project. The final item is to prepare a stormwater
plan for approval by Mr. Bradley Bennett with the Storniwater Division. As of this date, Talbert & Bright
is currently working with Mr. Bennett on obtaining his approval. The contract for the construction of this
project will not be executed until the stormwater plan is approved.
If you should have any questions, regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact my office. Thank'
you in advance for your cooperation.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
This report presents the findings of the wetland assessment recently performed for the
Stanly County Airport located in New London, North Carolina (Figure 1). The purpose
of this assessment was to identify wetlands in the vicinity of the proposed parallel taxiway
to be constructed along the eastern edge of the existing runway.
The opinions included herein are based on the information obtained during the study and
our professional experience. The report is based on the observations made on the dates
noted and using the procedures described herein. If additional information becomes
available, we request the opportunity to review the information, reassess the potential
environmental concerns and modify our conclusions and recommendations, if
appropriate.
2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION
The parallel taxiway site consists of approximately 60 acres of undeveloped land located
on the eastern side of the existing runway. The surface topography of the area appears
to slope to the northeast toward Little Mountain Creek located on the northern portion of
the site.
The wooded areas of the site consist of primarily hardwood. Dominant plant species at
the site include: Black Willow (Salix nigra), Brookside Alder (Alnus Serrulata), Tree
Groundsel (Baccharis glomerulifora), Wool-Grass (Scirpus cyperinus), Soft Rush (Juncus
effusus), Nodding Beakrush (Rhynchospora inexpansa), Poorland Flatsedge (Cyperus
compressus), and Common Cattail (Typha latifolia).

3.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES
At the request of Talbert & Bright, S&ME, Inc. performed a wetland delineation and
assessment of the subject site. The scope of services included the following:
1. Field delineation and documentation of all areas of waters of the United
States located at the site.
2. Verification of wetland/upland boundaries with the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACOE).

Procedures
SWE Project No. 1354-96-865
February 3, 1997
An on-site reconnaissance of the property was completed on January 13, 1996 by Jim
Stowers and Lanny Lowery of S&ME, Inc. During the site visit, all areas which would be
considered as waters of the United States were identified and the wetland/upland
boundary was marked with individual flags. The areas of jurisdiction were identified using
the currently accepted interim methods of wetland determination described in the 1987
Corps of Engineers Manual for Identifying and Delineating Wetland Areas. These
methods are detailed as follows:
The present methodology for determining the specific location of the
wetland jurisdiction line is presented in the Federal Manual for Identifying
and Delineation Wetlands (Reed, 1988). This methodology was adopted by
the federal agencies including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Soil Conversation Service (SCS) to provide a concurrent
definition of wetlands. The 1987 Corps of Engineers Manual states that
under normal circumstances, an area must demonstrate the presence of
three components to be declared jurisdictional wetlands: 1) hydrophytic
vegetation, 2) hydrology, and 3) hydric soils.
Vegetation: The list on hydrophytic (wetland) plants is very broad and
includes perhaps 90 percent of all species occurring in the coastal plain and
lower Piedmont (National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands:
Reed, 1988). The 1987 manual states that if greater than 51% of the
dominant vegetation within the community is facultative (FAC), facultative
3
Stanly County Airport
Wetland Delineation
SWE Project No. 1354-96-865
February 3, 1997
wet (FACW), or obligate (OBL), the vegetation community is considered
hydrophytic.
Hydrology: Traditionally, wetlands are thought to require standing water or
at least have very moist soil conditions at the surface. The hydrologic
criteria includes evidence of floods such as water lines on trees, drift lines,
buttressed bases on trees, crayfish burrows, etc., but this criteria can also
be met by a high groundwater table. Generally, the determining factor of
minimal hydrologic conditions is met by groundwater and not surface water
with this federal wetland definition.
Hydric Soils: The third requirement for a determination of jurisdiction is
hydric soils. Prolonged standing water obviously implies that the underlying
soils are hydric (wet). High water tables can cause the soils to be hydric
within the requirement for standing water; however, the presence of the
hydric soil component does not necessarily demonstrate the presence of
the hydrology component. Positive indicators of hydrology must be visible
and confirmed before the hydrology component can be confirmed.

5.0 DELINEATION SURVEY RESULTS
Results of the field delineation of wetlands may be seen on the attached topographic
survey of the property with the estimated wetland/upland boundary marked. The majority
of the wetlands identified were limited primarily to the northern side of the existing
terminal. The designated wetland areas consist of: that portion of Little Mountain Creek
located near the northern edge of the site ("waters of the U.S."); and one drainage feature
located to the south of the creek. In addition, a small drainage feature was located to
the south of Runway #4 (Refer to Sheet 1).
The wetland areas identified supported facultative (FAC), facultative-wet (FAMN), and
obligate (OBL) plant species. Hydrology indicators included standing water, water marks,
and water-stained leaves. The soils in the drainage feature located to the south of the
creek were observed to be hydric at a depth of approximately four inches below the
surface.

6.0 CONCLUSIONS
Federal Regulatory Authority
The Corps of Engineers generally issues two types of permits, Nationwide Permits and
Individual Permits. A Nationwide Permit (33 CFR Part 330.6 (13)(26) or NWP 26) allows
the filling or adverse impact of up to one-third acre of headwater (has an average annual
flow of less than 5 cfs) and/or isolated wetlands. A Nationwide Permit may also allow the
filling or adverse impact of between one-third (1 /3) and three (3) acres of these types of
wetlands provided the applicant notify the District Engineer in accordance with 33 CFR
Part 330.6 (C), also termed a "Pre-discharge Notification." This site contains a total
wetland area of 0.73 acres. Approximately 0.56 acre of these wetlands are proposed for
development. As a result, federal wetland permitting for this property will apply.
North Carolina State Regulatory Authority
The State of North Carolina has denied a blanket waiver of water quality certification for
NWP 26 and requires that an individual 401 certification be obtained from the state
Division of Water Quality. Generally, all proposed projects that impact more than 0.33
acres of headwater and/or isolated wetlands, such as this site, require notification prior
to impact.

7.0 SUMMARY
SWE Project No. 1354-96-865
February 3, 1997
A jurisdictional wetland delineation was performed for the Stanly County Airport in New
London, North Carolina on January 13, 1997 in accordance with Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act and USACOE/USEPA regulations.
Wetlands were identified and boundaries delineated according to 1987 USACOE methods.
The wetland area was limited to: that portion of Little Mountain Creek located near the
northern edge of the site ("waters of the U.S."); and one drainage feature located to the
south of the creek. In addition a small drainage feature was located to the south of
Runway #4. Wetlands on the property were estimated to account for a total of 0.73
acres. The remainder of the property was considered non-wetland due to the presence
of non-hydrophytic vegetation and non-hydric soils.

Dear Mr. Griffin:
The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your plans for the discharge of fill material into 0.56
acres of waters and/or wetlands located at the existing Stanley County Airport expansion. Based on this
review, we have identified significant uses which would be removed by this project. These uses are
aquatic life in Little Mountain Creek. Furthermore, insufficient evidence is present in our files to
conclude that your project must be built as planned in waters and/or wetlands in accordance with 15A
NCAC 2H .0506. Therefore, we are moving toward denial of your 401 Certification as required by 15A
NCAC 2H .0507(e). Until we receive additional information, we are requesting (by copy of this letter)
that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of Coastal Management place your
project on administrative hold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position that your project must be constructed as
planned and that you have no practicable alternative to placing fill in these waters and/or wetlands. A
revised plan removing the rip rap from the stream substrate and a map with reduced wetland impacts
(0.21 acres to be removed). Any documentation such as maps and narrative that you can supply to
address alternative designs for your project may be helpful in our review of your 401 Certification. Also
this project will require compensatory mitigation as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506(h). Your stream
mitigation proposal is insufficient because the application lacks one At least 125 feet of stream mitigation
(similar size to Little Mountain Creek) will be needed to satisfy DWQ. Two copies of a stormwater plan
will need to be submitted to us. These plans should have provisions for wet detention basins. Please
respond within two weeks of the date of this letter by sending a copy of this information to me and one
copy to Mr. Samir Bou-Ghazale at the Mooresville Regional Office at 919 North Main Street, Mooresville
NC 28115. If we do not hear from you in two weeks, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue
this project and we will consider the project as withdrawn. I can be reached at 919-733-1786 if you have
any questions.
Sincerely,

Habitat Conservation Program
pate April 2,1997
Subject: 401 Water Quality Certification for Stanly County Airport Authority, Little
Mountain Creek, Yadkin-Pee Dee River, Stanley County, DWQ 970106
Staff biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission have reviewed the
subioct project. Our comments are provided in accordance with certain provisions of the Fish and
Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stet. 401, as amended,, 16 U.S.C. 661-667d) and Section 401(b) of
the Clean Water Act of 1977 (as amended).
We have reviewed the application for certification to $110.056 acres of wetlands and to
culvert u section of Little Mountain Creek for the construction of a runway at the airport.
Specimens of Villosa vaughaniana, the Carolina creekshell, were found in Little Mountain
Creek upstream from the Stanly County Airport by NCWRC biologists in July 1995. 'Ibis
freshwater mussel is a state-listed special concern species that is now found only hi a few locations
in North Caroling. The wetlands on this site are important to protection of aquatic habitat in Little
Mountain Creek.
We have the following recommendations and comments concerning this application:
I . Require that stormwater from the airport impervious surfaces be routed to a wet detention
pond prior to discharge to surface waters. Stormwater from refueling areas should be routed
to oil/water separators prior to discharge.
2. Require mitigation in the Little Mountain Creek subbasin for the culvurtcd stream, section
and the lost wetlands.
3. Where the trees will not interfere with flight operations, a minimum 140-foot forested buffer
should be maintained along Little Mountain Creek. Along the sections that must remain free
or trees, low growing shrubs along the creek bank are recommended to help maintain bank
stability and provide canopy over the stream.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment dining the planning stages for this project. If 1
can be of further assistance, contact me at [phone].

ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to fill in 0.35 acres
of wetlands or waters for the purpose of airport expansion at Stanly County Airport, as you described in your
application dated 10 February and 27 March 1997. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is
covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3108. This certification allows you to use Nationwide
Permit Number 26 when it is issued by the Corps of Engineers.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application except as modified
below. If you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If
total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, 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. To compensate for the cumulative
stream impacts, you are required to purchase stream credits for 125 linear feet by 30 May 1997 as you proposed in
your 9 April 1997 correspondence and confirmed by Mr. Brian Salyers to Mr. Eric Galamb on 18 April 1997.
Furthermore, a stormwater plan will need to be approved by Mr. Bradley Bennett prior to impacting the wetlands or
stream. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project
including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water Supply
Watershed regulations. This approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless
otherwise specified in the General Certification.
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, P.O.
Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. 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.
If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-1786.

Wetland Delineation
1.0 INTRODUCTION
S&ME Project No. 1354-96-865
February 3, 1997
This report presents the findings of the wetland assessment recently performed for the
Stanly County Airport located in New London, North Carolina (Figure 1). The purpose
of this assessment was to identify wetlands in the vicinity of the proposed parallel taxiway
to be constructed along the eastern edge of the existing runway.
The opinions included herein are based on the information obtained during the study and
our professional experience. The report is based on the observations made on the dates
noted and using the procedures described herein. If additional information becomes
available, we request the opportunity to review the information, reassess the potential
environmental concerns and modify our conclusions and recommendations, if
appropriate.
2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION
The parallel taxiway site consists of approximately 60 acres of undeveloped land located
on the eastern side of the existing runway. The surface topography of the area appears
to slope to the northeast toward Little Mountain Creek located on the northern portion of
the site.
The wooded areas of the site consist of primarily hardwood. Dominant plant species at
the site include: Black Willow (Salix nigra), Brookside Alder (Alnus Serrulata), Tree
Groundsel (Baccharis glomerulifora), Wool-Grass (Scirpus cyperinus), Soft Rush (Juncus
effusus), Nodding Beakrush (Rhynchospora inexpansa), Poorland Flatsedge (Cyperus
compressus), and Common Cattail (Typha latifolia).
Stanly County Airport S&ME Project No. 1354-96-865
Wetland Delineation February 3, 1997
3.0 SCOPE OF SERVICES
At the request of Talbert & Bright, S&ME, Inc. performed a wetland delineation and
assessment of the subject site. The scope of services included the following:
1. Field delineation and documentation of all areas of waters of the United
States located at the site.
2. Verification of wetland/upland boundaries with the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers (USACOE).

4.0 WETLAND ASSESSMENT
Procedures
An on-site reconnaissance of the property was completed on January 13, 1996 by Jim
Stowers and Lanny Lowery of S&ME, Inc. During the site visit, all areas which would be
considered as waters of the United States were identified and -the wetland/upland
boundary was marked with individual flags. The areas of jurisdiction were identified using
the currently accepted interim methods of wetland determination described in the 1987
Corps of Engineers Manual for Identifying and Delineating Wetland Areas. These
methods are detailed as follows:
The present methodology for determining the specific. location of the
wetland jurisdiction line is presented in the Federal Manual for Identifying
and Delineation Wetlands (Reed, 1988). This methodology was adopted by
the federal agencies including the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA),
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), and the U.S. Department of
Agriculture, Soil Conversation Service (SCS) to provide a concurrent
definition of wetlands. The 1987 Corps of Engineers Manual states that
under normal circumstances, an area must demonstrate the presence of
three components to be declared jurisdictional wetlands: 1) hydrophytic
vegetation, 2) hydrology, and 3) hydric soils.
Vegetation: The list on hydrophytic (wetland) plants is very broad and
includes perhaps 90 percent of all species occurring in the coastal plain and
lower Piedmont (National List of Plant Species That Occur in Wetlands:
Reed, 1988). The 1987 manual states that if greater than 51% of the
dominant vegetation within the community is facultative (FAC), facultative
3
Stanly County Airport SWE Project No. 1354-96-865
Wetland Delineation February 3, 1997
wet (FACW), or obligate (OBL), the vegetation community is considered
hydrophytic.
Hydrology: Traditionally, wetlands are thought to require standing water or
at least have very moist soil conditions at the surface. The hydrologic
criteria includes evidence of floods such as water lines on trees, drift lines,
buttressed bases on trees, crayfish burrows, etc., but this criteria can also
be met by a high groundwater table. Generally, the determining factor of
minimal hydrologic conditions is met by groundwater and not surface water
with this federal wetland definition.
Hydric Soils: The third requirement for a determination of jurisdiction is
hydric soils. Prolonged standing water obviously implies that the underlying
soils are hydric (wet). High water tables can cause the soils to be hydric
within the requirement for standing water; however, the presence of the
hydric soil component does not necessarily demonstrate the presence of
the hydrology component. Positive indicators of hydrology must be visible
and confirmed before the hydrology component can be confirmed.

5.0 DELINEATION SURVEY RESULTS
Results of the field delineation of wetlands may be seen on the attached topographic
survey of the property with the estimated wetland/upland boundary marked. The majority
of the wetlands identified were limited primarily to the northern side of the existing
terminal. The designated wetland areas consist of: that portion of Little Mountain Creek
located near the northern edge of the site ("waters of the U.S."); and one drainage feature
located to the south of the creek. In addition, a small drainage feature was located to
the south of Runway #4 (Refer to Sheet 1).
The wetland areas identified supported facultative (FAC), facultative-wet (FACW), and
obligate (OBL) plant species. Hydrology indicators included standing water, water marks,
and water-stained leaves. The soils in the drainage feature located to the south of the
creek were observed to be hydric at a depth of approximately four inches below the
surface.

6.0 CONCLUSIONS
Federal Regulatory Authority
The Corps of Engineers generally issues two types of permits, Nationwide Permits and
Individual Permits. A Nationwide Permit (33 CFR Part 330.6 (B)(26) or NWP 26) allows
the filling or adverse impact of up to one-third acre of headwater (has an average annual
flow of less than 5 cfs) and/or isolated wetlands. A Nationwide Permit may also allow the
filling or adverse impact of between one-third (1/3) and three (3) acres of these types of
wetlands provided the applicant notify the District Engineer in accordance with 33 CFR
Part 330.6 (C), also termed a "Pre-discharge Notification." This site contains a total
wetland area of 0.73 acres. Approximately 0.56 acre of these wetlands are proposed for
development. As a result, federal wetland permitting for this property will apply.
North Carolina State Regulatory Authority
The State of North Carolina has denied a blanket waiver of water quality certification for
NWP 26 , and requires that an individual 401 certification be obtained from the state
Division of Water Quality. Generally, all proposed projects that impact more than 0.33
acres of headwater and/or isolated wetlands, such as this site, require notification prior
to impact.

Stanly County Airport SWE Project No. 1354-96-865
Wetland Delineation February 3, 1997
7.0 SUMMARY
A jurisdictional wetland delineation was performed for the Stanly County Airport in New
London, North Carolina on January 13, 1997 in accordance with Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act and USACOE/USEPA regulations.
Wetlands were identified and boundaries delineated according to 1987 USACOE methods.
The wetland area was limited to: that portion of Little Mountain Creek located near the
northern edge of the site ("waters of the U.S."); and one drainage feature located to the
south of the creek. In addition a small drainage feature was located to the south of
Runway #4. Wetlands on the property were estimated to account for a total of 0.73
acres. The remainder of the property was considered non-wetland due to the presence
of non-hydrophytic vegetation and non-hydric soils.
