Dear Mr. Dorney:

In 1998, the above referenced project was approved by your office and is now under construction.
At the upper end of the project, we are connecting to the existing sewer interceptor to relieve capacity
problems. This connection requires a creek crossing.
By our original design, this crossing was to be near the BB&T Bank on Creedmoor Road as
shown on the enclosed plans. This was a difficult location on a steep bank, and would have required that
the next phase of the project begin with a deep open cut through a rocky hill (between station 9+00 and
7+00).
We now propose to extend the interceptor further upstream before making the crossing. Due to
the existing development on the east side of the creek (Sheraton Hotel, ECPI and the Cotton Building),
we are extending the line some 1000 feet to a location upstream of these buildings. This will enable us to
make the creek crossing without disrupting normal business operations of the hotel and other businesses.
Environmentally, this alignment should be better because it eliminates the deep open cut on the creek
bank at the BB&T. By extending the tunnel, the open cut will begin at a point well away from the creek.
The extension to the crossing point will be over 50 feet from the waters edge throughout its length.
If additional information is needed, please let us know.

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and Neuse River Buffer Rules
Ms. Donna Jackson
City of Raleigh
PO Box 590
Raleigh, NC 27602
Dear Ms. Jackson:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in waters for the purpose of
constructing a sewer line along Crabtree Creek near Glenwood Avenue, as you described in your application dated April
23, 1998. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality
Certification Number 3101. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 12 when the Corps of
Engineers issues it. This approval is also valid for the Neuse River buffer rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233) only if all of the
conditions of the General Certification are met. 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. Also this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or
CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change your
project, you must notify us and send us 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 conditions. 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 N. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may akk 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 Domey at 919-733-1786.

re: Request for Determination of "No Practical Alternative"
Raleigh/Crabtree Creek Sewer Interceptor
Dear Mr. Dorney:

-., ? ,L 199
On April 23, 1998, we submitted a Pre-Construction Notification Application for the above
referenced project to your office and the Raleigh Office of the Corps of Engineers. The application
included a copy of the Quad Map of the area, a location map of the sewer project and detailed plans of
the creek crossing near Creedmoor Road.
We understand that additional information is required for consideration of "no practical
alternative" for the location of utility lines under the Neuse Buffer Rules. Enclosed is a full set of plans of
the project showing the exalt alignment of the sewer line in relation to Crabtree Creek. The first location
where we are closer than 56'feet from the normal water level of the creek is in the area of the Century
Drive bridge as shown on sheets 2 and 3. The location in this area is complicated by the close proximity
of the existing Handy Hugo's convenience store to the creek just downstream from the Century Drive
bridge. We are tunneling the line in place under Century Drive bridge, adjacent to the Handy Hugo's
building and under Glenwood Avenue to avoid disturbance of these structures. By constructing in this
manner, the only disturbance to the creek bank will be at manholes 7 and 8 where the tunnels terminate.
In order to prevent erosion in these areas, we have called for the use of rip rap to stabilize these areas.
The stream velocity in this area during a 10-year storm is approximately 7.5 feet per second.
On the issue of topography, the line as designed approaching Century Drive and leaving
Glenwood Avenue is greater than 18 feet deep. To get further from the creek, we would have to be on
the south side of the Handy Hugo's building at an even greater depth. We try to keep the line under 20
feet if at all possible, although certain other locations in this project require construction at greater depths
where no alternative exists. Moving to the south of the building also increases the length of the project,
and would still require tunneling. The estimated cost of the tunneling for this project is $1250 per foot.
At this cost, it is imperative that the length of tunnels be minimized if at all possible.
Substrate becomes an issue in this area in that the likelihood of hitting rock increases as you get
further from the creek. Rock has been found at pipe depth in Glenwood Avenue and likely occurs at a
higher elevation to the south, requiring more expensive excavation if the line is relocated.
Mr. John Dorney
May 12, 1998
Page 2
Relocating to the other side of the creek in this area does not solve the problem. First, this would
require a creek crossing at some point because we are connecting to an existing line on the south side of
the creek. Second, there is an existing 36" sewer line on the north side of the creek in this area. We
would have to locate the new line between the existing line and the creek, which would require us to be
less than 50 feet from the creek on the north side. The existing line shows as a dashed line crossing
Century Drive and the existing parking lots in the lower left corner of the plan on sheet 3. The existing
line is exposed under the Glenwood Avenue bridge. Locating a new line on the creek side of the existing
line under the bridge would require the new line to be supported on piers.
For these reasons, we believe the line as proposed in this area is in its best location and request
that it be allowed based on "no practical alternative".
The other location where the line is closer than 50 feet from the normal waters edge is shown on
sheet 7 of the plans. This location is dictated by the Creedmoor Road bridge. In order to avoid
disturbance of the bridge footings, we need to be as far away from them as possible. The chosen location
is midway between the foundation of the northwest end of the bridge and the foundation of the first
midspan pier. The only other alternative would be northwest of the end of the bridge. This location
would require the line to be well over thirty feet deep. Therefore, topography is the primary issue
regarding this location. The line cannot be feasibly constructed thirty feet deep.
Substrate is also an issue because rock has been found by test bore P-10 (see Sheet 7) to be at
elevation 216. Closer to the creek where the line is located, we believe rock will be avoided.
Locating the line on the other side of the creek is again influenced by the location of the existing
line on that side. As shown on sheets 5-7, the existing line is already closer than 50 feet from the creek.
Locating the new line on that side would require us to be closer than 50 feet from the creek for a much
longer distance than the proposed alignment.
Again, for the reasons stated, we request that this location be approved based on the absence of
any practical alternative. If additional information is needed, please let us know.

George FinchBoney and Associates, P.A.

To: Interested Parties
NCDENR
NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF
Director ENVIRONMENT AND NATURAL RESOURCES
May 18, 1998
From: Eric Galamb Z
Subject: Neuse Buffer Rules
Practical Alternatives Analysis for Utility Lines
The Neuse River Riparian Area Rule (15A NCAC 2B .0233) was adopted by the Environmental
Management Commission in June 1997 and became effective on July 22, 1997. The riparian area rule
deems it illegal to remove existing "forest vegetation" in the first 30 feet of land directly adjacent to a
stream or other waterbody (known as Zone 1) except in certain situations. "Forest vegetation" refers to
wooded plant communities and means not only trees, but also shrubs, saplings. vines and herbaceous plants.
Forest vegetation does not include intensively maintained public or private lawns.
• Utilitv lines - construction of new corridors
The right-of-way for new utility lines may be located within Zone 2 (30-50 feet away from the edge of
a stream or other waterbody) provided that no practical alternative exists. These lines are not to be
constructed in Zone 1.
• Utilitv lines - construction of new crossings
New utility line crossings through the riparian area are allowed provided they show that no practical
alternative exists and that they are designed, constructed and maintained to minimize disturbance and
protect water quality.
• Utility lines - maintenance of existing lines
Maintenance and rehabilitation of existing utility lines is allowed and encouraged provided that
disturbance is minimized and water quality is protected. In rehabilitation projects, lines may be
returned to their previous locations even if they are closer than 30 feet to the waterbody.
• Utilitv lines - maintenance of new lines
A corridor for the construction and maintenance of utility lines may be located within Zone 2 provided
that no practical alternative exists. These access corridors should be the minimum width possible (not
exceeding 10 feet except at manhole covers) and 10 foot by 10 foot perpendicular vehicle turnarounds
spaced at a distance of at least 500 feet are allowed.
To assist us in determining if "no practical alternatives exist" for utility line crossings or corridors, the
affected party must submit a Pre-Construction Notification form (see attachment) and a letter addressing the
following issues to the DWQ Wetland/401 Unit:
• Topooraphv: The affected party may demonstrate no practical alternative if topography dictates that he
can avoid exceeding the maximum depth and/or the maximum percent slope of the utility line/crossing
by installing it within the riparian area.
• Substrate: The affected party may demonstrate no practical alternative if he can avoid encountering
bedrock by placing the utility line/crossing within the riparian area. The feasibility of aerial lines and
buried lines must be discussed.

Telephone 919-733-1786 FAX # 733-9959
An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer 50% recycled/ 10% post consumer paper
Opposite Side: The affected party may demonstrate no practical alternative only after this analysis is
completed on both sides of the stream.
Manholes: More manholes may need to be constructed to keep the sewer line from encroaching into
the riparian area.
Forcemains: Discuss the feasibility of using forcemains versus gravity lines.
Issues that do not effect the practical alternatives test include: the date when the utility was designed, the
cost of redesigning the utility line, and ownership of easements needed to comply with the rule.
There may be some individual cases where the affected party may be able to demonstrate that a project has
vested rights to comply with an earlier version of the riparian area rule OR that it should be allowed to
proceed without having to comply with either version of the rule.
Such decisions, involving the legal doctrine of "vested rights," are matters for the courts to decide.
Affected parties may, however, request DWQ to state its position on the question of which rule applies.
The Division will use the following criteria to determine requirements for complying with the riparian area
rule. Even if it appears that the project should comply with an earlier version of the rule (or not follow an}
version of the rule) according to the information below, the affected party should seek written permission
from DWQ to proceed with the project:
(1) Projects that require a 401 Certification/404 Permit
If the project requires a 401 Certification/404 Wetland Permit, then riparian area requirements
will be determined as follows:
• If the 401 Certification/404 Permit was issued before July 22, 1997 and is still valid, then the
project is not required to comply with the riparian area rule.
• If the 401 Certification/404 Permit was issued between July 22, 1997 and January 22. 1998
and is still valid, then the project is required to comply with the temporary rule in effect at
that time.
• If the 401 Certification/404 Permit was issued after January 22, 1998, then the project is
required to comply with the current temporary rule.
(2) Other Projects
If the above does not apply and the affect party believes that he has a "vested right" to develop his
property without complying with the riparian area rule, the affected party may submit
documentation of reasons why he believes a vested right can be established. In general, the legal
doctrine of "vested rights" requires the affected party to establish that he has made expenditures or
incurred contractual obligations, substantial in amount, in reliance on a permit issued by the
Division (or on the buffer rule in effect at the time); that the obligations or expenditures were
incurred in good faith; and that the riparian area rule is actually detrimental to his project.
Although the determination of "vested rights" can only be made by the courts, DWQ will, upon
request, review the documentation submitted and inform the affected party of DWQ's position on
the question.
Affected parties who would like to request a project review should submit the following information to the
DWQ Wetlands/401 Unit:
(1) A letter explaining the affected party's claim for following an earlier version of the rule (or not
following any rule), including a description of the project.
(2) A map showing the project location.
(3) A complete set of profile, and plan sheets. The surrounding topography must be on the sheets.
(4) Documentation of an approved and still valid 401/404 Wetland Permit (if applicable).
OR
Documentation of the signed and still valid timber contract or deed (if applicable).
OR
Documentation of financial expenditures and/or contractual obligations and documentation of the
governmental approvals, if any, on which they were based. (including Sediment/Erosion Control,
Nationwide Permit 26, local building approvals, etc.)
(4) If the request is to follow the July 1997-January 1998 version of the rule (rather than not following
either rule), the affected party should explain how the project will comply with that rule.
This memorandum is meant to provide as much guidance as possible about how the Neuse River Riparian
Area Rule affects utility lines. As DWQ receives more requests for practical alternatives decisions as they
relate to the rule, this list may change.
Please contact me at (919) 733-1786 if you have any questions.
