APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and Neuse Buffer Rules
Teresa Robin
2916 Dahlgreen Road
Ralegh, NC 27615
Dear Ms. Robin:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to stabilize 80 feet of stream
bank on Perry Creek in Wake County, as you described in your application received by the Division of Water Quality on May
12, 2000. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this action is covered by General Water Quality
Certification Number 3102. This certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 13 when the Corps of
Engineers issues it. This approval is also valid for the Neuse River Buffer Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233). 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 Water shed regulations. This
approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General
Certification. This approval replaces the approval issued to you on December 17, 1999.
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 you may be required to 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 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed
below and in the attached 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. 276 1 1-7447. 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 919-733-9646. ,
Sincerely,
G? >?_?

Below we have outlined the scope of work to be performed at the home of
Ms. Teresa Robin at 2916 Dahlgreen Rd, Raleigh, NC.
• The work is to be done in three stages. 1. The first stage.,.wi,l1 consist of
clearing ,the underbrush that its in plate. We-will' then have to put in a
temporary retaining fence to hold the topsoil in to be placed behindwit.
2. part.2~vvill consist of bringing in the load (s) of topsoil in manually by
wheel barrows. We will have to create a temporary bridge across the
stream to get the topsoil across. The topsoil has to be dropped on the
other side of the stream for proper access to the area.
I The final stage is the actual placement of: I st a mesh nylon or plastic
stabilizer over the topsoil to help protect the topsoil from washing out during
heavy rains. & Second the placement of the Rip-Rap (Rocks) on top of the
fabric. Once again the Rip Rap has to be dropped on the other side of the
stream and hand carried across.

Responses
? Fill dirt will be used and will only be placed on the side of the stream closest to the
house. There is an access area behind the stream where the fill dirt will be dropped
off. The fill dirt will then be moved from the drop off point via a temporary bridge to
the side of the stream closest to the house. The temporary bridge will consist of 2X8
treated boards. The boards will be placed across the stream simply to provide a
means to get the fill dirt from the drop off point to the side of the stream closest to
the house where the erosion has occurred.
? No fill dirt will be placed in the stream and no actions will be taken to disturb or
modify the side of the stream farthest from the house.
Y The fill dirt will be stabilized by using an excelsior matting.
y The length of the channel to which the work is being performed is 80 ft.
Please see pictures on the following page, which show the erosion, which has
occurred. The enclosed pictures also points out where the fill dirt will be dropped off
and shows the area behind the stream.

The following pictures show the erosion that has occurred. This is on the side of the
stream closest to the house where fill dirt will be placed and secured with excelsior
matting. Rip rap will be placed on top of the matting.

The following picture shows the area behind the stream, a trail, where fill dirt will be
dropped ofd Once again this is only a drop off point and the fill dirt will be moved from
the area behind the stream to the side of the stream closet to the house.

Re: Tardy Projects
List of Recommendations
Teresa Robin, DWO No. 000622
After reviewing the project, I think that additional information is required. I recommend issuing a letter
requesting additional information on the following items:
? Why does "topsoil" have to be placed on the "opposite side of the stream" to stabilize the stream
channel? Topsoil is highly erodable. Other fill materials may be better.
? Will there be fill in the stream itself?
? Is the fill (rip rap and soil) being placed on the side of the stream closest to the house? Review of the
permit suggestd fill on the opposite of the stream form the house. This would potentially exacerbate
erosion issues near the house.
? How will the temporary bridge be constructed? Will its construction require placement of fill into the
stream?
? How will the "topsoil" after placement be stabilized? Believe fabric is proposed. Perhaps, fabric and
vegetative means would be better.
? What is the length of channel to which work is being performed?
? Need a set of site plans that display the stream channel, Neuse Buffers, and areas of the proposed
bridge and placement of fill (soil and rip rap).

CERTIFIED MAIL-RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
Ms. Teresa Robin
2916 Dohlgreen Road
Raleigh, NC 27615
Dear Ms. Robin:
The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your plans for the discharge of fill material into
stream buffers located at your home at 2916 Dahlgreen Road in Wake County for streambank stabilization
as described in your application dated May 10, 2000 (revised May 12, 2000). 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, unless modifications of the proposal are made as
described below, we will have to move toward denial of your 401 Certification as required by 15A NCAC
2H .0507(e) and will place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information.
we are requesting (by copy of this letter) that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers place your project on
administrative hold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position that states your project must be
constructed as planned and that you have no practicable alternative to placing fill in these waters and/or
wetlands. Specifically can you provide a better explanation of where and why the impacts are planned? In
particular a site plan showing where topsoil is to be removed and placed as well as the bridge is needed.
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.
Please respond within three weeks of the date of this letter by sending a copy of this information to
me and to the Mr. Steve Mitchell, Raleigh Regional Office at [phone]. If we do not hear from you
in three 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 919-733-9646 if you have any questions.
