Dear Ms. Olson:
Reference is made to your letter dated February 21, 2001, in which you requested a refund for the application fee paid for a 401
Water Quality Certification issued to Melvyn and Frankie Stern on July 25, 2000. Please note that the primary purpose of this project, as
described in the permit application received on May 30, 2000, was to repair and protect an existing stone retaining wall separating Cedar
Fork Creek from Mr. and Ms. Stem's property in Orange County. Therefore, stream bank stabilization was a secondary goal in designing
this project. Retention of the retaining wall was integral to the proposed (and subsequently approved) plan. You should note that a
retaining wall is not considered a valid component of natural channel design. However, it was allowed after review and consideration of
the project purpose and site constraints. Had this been a true stream restoration project, removal of the retaining wall would likely have
been required in order to achieve a natural stream pattern and profile.
Condition No. 1 of General Certification 3257, which was issued for this project, states:
"Stream restoration is defined as the process of converting an unstable, altered or degraded stream corridor, including
adjacent riparian zone and floodprone areas to its natural or referenced, stable conditions considering recent and future
watershed conditions. This process also includes restoring the geomorphic dimension, pattern and profile as well as biological
and chemical integrity, including transport of water and sediment produced by the stream's watershed in order to
achieve dynamic equilibrium.
The applicant is required to notify the Division in writing with three copies of a detailed restoration or stream bank
stabilization plan before the impact occurs. If the Division determines that the project does not meet the above definition
of stream restoration, then the Division shall notify the applicant in writing with an explanation within 30 days of receipt of the
notification to require application and payment of the appropriate fee."
The application fee of $475 was required for this project after we determined that this project did not qualify for the definition of
stream restoration. Furthermore, since the proposed work fell outside the scope of traditional stream restoration techniques, this
application was forwarded to the DWQ Raleigh Regional Office for site-specific review of the plan. The application fee partially covered
the cost of processing this application through the DWQ Central and Regional Offices. We have determined that it would be inappropriate
to refund the application fee in accordance with the conditions of General Certification 3257 and Part 1 of Article 21 of Chapter 143 of the
General Statutes, Section 143-215.3D(e), adopted by the General Assembly of North Carolina effective January 1, 1999.
Thank you for your inquiry. If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-9646.

RE: Permit to Melvin Stern and Frankie Price Stern for stream work in Cedar Fork Branch.
Action ID: 200021659
Dear Mr. Dorney;
Enclosed is further information for the proposed stream stabilization project on privately owned land that received
approval 25 July, 2000. Enclosed are plans for the maintenance and repair of the retaining wall and for stream
stabilization. In summary, the stream will be temporarily piped during the repair to the existing retaining wall,
phase 1 (see Stern Retaining Wall Stabilization plan), followed by stream stabilization procedures.
The stream has been evaluated as an unstable Rosgen B4 and will be modified, using a natural channel design, to
return this stretch to a stable configuration (refer to Stern Reach Streambank Stabilization document). There will
not be a change to the stream pattern or profile. Work is expected to begin about the 7th of March.
As you now know, my clients are private landowners trying to protect their residence. Their initial objective for this
project was to stabilize the erosion of the streambanks. The original application to you arrived without a fee because
I had read that this type of work did not require one. You sent a reply (letter enclosed) that a fee of $475.00 was
required for this project, which I then sent to you, because I could not find the reference. Recently I found the
reference (see p3 of Sediments) and request that you reconsider the fee. We would appreciate your consideration of
the possibility to refund this application fee to my clients. Their costs to protect their property will probably exceed
$50,000 and they will be grateful for any reduction of this expense.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Wendy L. Olson RLA, CPESC

water quality
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act
delegates authority to the states to issue a
401 Water Quality Certification for all
projects that require a Federal Permit
(such as a Section 404 Permit). The
"401" is essentially a verification by the
state that a given project will not degrade
Waters of the State or otherwise violate
water quality standards.
Anyone who plans construction
activities that may affect streams or
wetlands should be aware that the N.C.
Division of Water Quality's Wetlands/
401 Certification Unit has revised or is in
the process of revising many Water
Quality General Certifications required
under Section 401 of the Clean Water
Act.
¦ New conditions have been added to all
General Certifications which require
written notification of completion of
projects.
¦ New conditions have been added for
development in the Neuse and Tar-
Pamlico River basins.
¦ New certifications have been issued
for stream restoration, streambank
certifications
stabilization and wetland restoration
that, in general, require only written
notification and compliance with
conditions-no fee or written concur-
rence from DWQ
¦ New conditions have been added, or
have been proposed, to General
Certifications for many Corps of
Engineers' Nationwide Permits and
new and/or revised General Certifica-
tions have been issued or proposed in
response to COE's new and revised
Nationwide Permits.
¦ General Certification for the
Wilmington District's new Regional
General Permit for publicly funded
transportation improvements has also
been issued.

Cedar Fork Branch Streambank Stabilization
Project - Stern Reach
INTRODUCTION AND GOALS
Cedar Fork Branch is located in the headwaters of the Cape Fear River Basin (see Figure
1). The project reach is located immediately downstream of Brookview Drive in the
Town of Chapel Hill. The drainage area is 1.4 square miles. The project stream reach has
experienced recent degradation (lowering of the streambed), which has undermined a
stone wall separating Cedar Fork Branch from the Stern's household. The Stern's are
concerned that further undermining will cause the wall to collapse and jeopardize the
structural stability of their home. The following goals were set for this project:
1. Prevent further degradation of Cedar Fork Branch,
2. Prevent Cedar Fork Branch from undermining the stone retaining wall, and
3. Use natural channel design techniques to maintain the natural aesthetics of the
stream corridor.
EXISTING CONDITION
The project stream reach is 150 feet in length and extends from the bridge at Brookview
Drive to the bedrock knickpoint at the downstream end of the stone retaining wall. An
existing plan view drawing of the project is shown in Figure 2. Scour depths measured
near the wall indicate that the streambed has incised a maximum of 1.6 feet below the
bottom of the wall. Over the past year, the thalweg elevation has incised a maximum of 5
inches (refer to Figure 2). The streambed is underlain by bedrock. It is likely that during
bankfull events and larger the streambed is scouring to the depth of bedrock and re-
depositing on the falling limb of the hydrograph. Bed load transport appears to be active
from the presence of developing bars under the bridge and point bar development
downstream of the knickpoint.
The stream type for the project reach is an unstable Rosgen B4. Evidence of instability is
shown in the range of bankfull width/depth ratios. The typical average ratio found in
stable B4 stream types in North Carolina is 15. The range of w/d ratios found at the Stern
Reach is 7 to 19. Existing versus design dimensions are shown in Appendix 1. A w/d
ratio of 7 does not fit into the range of a B3 stream type (must be greater than 12). The
low ratio is caused by channel incision, which has separated the channel from the
floodplain. This is also an area of scour next to the wall. The channel will now widen and
increase the w/d ratio while building a new floodplain at a lower elevation. This will
place greater stress on the retaining wall and erode the gravel bar/ floodplain on the left
bank until a new floodplain has developed. Since the stream is underlain by bedrock,
significant further incision is unlikely.

BANKFULL VERIFICATION
Bankfull stage is the elevation of the active floodplain. In incised or moderately incised
streams, the bankfull stage is rarely the top of the streambank. Rather, it is often
identified as the back of a depositional bench, a distinct break in slope, or the uppermost
scour line. All three of these bankfull indicators were identified along the Stern Reach of
Cedar Fork Branch. The bankfull indicator was verified by comparing the bankfull cross
sectional areas surveyed at the Stern Reach with urban and rural regional curves
developed by Doll et al and Harman et al, respectively. As expected, the bankfull cross
sectional area for the Stern Reach fell between the two curves as shown in Table 1. This
is because the rural curve represents streams in undeveloped or agricultural watersheds
and the urban curve represents streams in highly impervious watersheds like downtown
Charlotte and Raleigh. Streams that are dominated by residential neighborhoods often fall
between the two lines.

Regional Curves

REFERENCE REACH ANALYSES
A reference reach is a stable stream in the same hydrophysiographic region as the project
site and with the same stream type as the design stream. In this case, the existing stream
type of a B4 will remain a B4 under the proposed design. Morgan Creek was selected as
the reference reach because it is a stable B4c stream type and is located near Chapel Hill
off of Highway 54. The reference reach is upstream of the highway overpass and the US
Geological Survey gage station. Morgan Creek is not as coarse as Cedar Fork and has a
lower slope because of its larger drainage area (substrate grain size and channel slope
decrease with increasing drainage area). Therefore, the Morgan Creek data set was cross
referenced with steeper B stream types found in the Blue Ridge Mountain physiographic
region (Clinton, et al). The ratios calculated from the Morgan Creek data and the Blue
Ridge data matched well; therefore, the Morgan Creek data set was used. The reference
reach data are shown in Appendix 1 on the Design Dimension, Pattern, and Profile Table.
NATURAL CHANNEL DESIGN
The natural channel design is shown in Figure 3 and Appendix 1. The design proposes to
move the channel away from the stone retaining wall by excavating the gravel/cobble bar

and building a bankfull bench next to the wall. The bankfull bench will range in width
from 2 feet to 5 feet. The height of the bench will range 2 to 3 feet from the max depth of
the channel (refer to the cross sections in Appendix 1). Cross vanes will be used to
ensure that the thalweg stays near the center of the channel, protect the streambanks
(wall), and create scour pools in the center of the channel for improved habitat. Details
are shown in Appendix 2. In addition, rock sills will be installed from the end of the cross
vane to the wall. The sills will be buried in the floodplain bench to prevent the channel
from cutting around the structures. A short rock vane will also be installed to help take
stress off the wall and develop a small point bar.
The existing trees on the gravel bar will be removed and installed as root wads (for bank
stability) at the locations shown on Figure 3 and detailed in Appendix 2. To further
stabilize the streambanks, a temporary and permanent vegetation plan will be developed
by Wendy Olsen, LSA.
CONSTRUCTION
The construction access is shown on Figure 3. The contractor will have to cross a curb to
access the site and is responsible for any damage that may occur during construction.
Equipment is not permitted on the driveway. A track hoe with hydraulic thumb is
required to install the rock vanes and root wads. Buck Engineering will layout the new
channel and structures. Extreme care must be taken not to damage the stone wall,
especially when installing the rock sills. The earthwork estimates and material estimates
are shown in Appendix 1 under cut/fill and structure specifications. It is important that
large boulders (5 ft X 4ft X 2ft) be used to build the rock vanes. The topsoil from the bar
will be stockpiled and placed on top of the bankfull bench. Wendy Olsen will provide
planting details.
PREVIOUS WORK
This design is part of a previous design prepared and permitted by Wendy Olsen.

r,

Dear Mr. Dorney; aArATERALfTYEC"
The location of the work is on property owned by my clients, Mel and Frankie Stern. It lies within the
Chapel Hill city limits at the intersection of Brookview Drive and Cedar Fork Creek northwest of Eastwood Lake.
The purpose of the project is to repair and protect an existing stone retaining wall that separates the stream
from their home and driveway and to stabilize the stream banks from further erosion. The wall was constructed by
previous owners in 1974, a few years after the home was built. About 180' of the stream will be affected.
The upstream watershed, about 1000 acres, includes commercial and high density residential along and
near Weaver Dairy Road. Single family residential and relatively steep slopes covers much of the remaining
drainage area. Most of this development has occurred since the mid 80's.
Changes to stream dynamics by development and a new culvert placed under the bridge on Brookview
Drive (rebuilt the summer of 1999) that focuses the force of the stream flow into the wall has accelerated wear on
the wall. The bed of the stream splits around an `island' that begins about 60' from the culvert outflow. Low and
moderate flow is now entirely in the channel adjacent to the wall, although the property owners say they remember
the stream frequently flowing in the far channel until fairly recently. They have owned the property since the mid
90's. Both channels still flow during heavy rains.
Progressive elevations of the stream bed were derived from a 1990 topographical survey that identified the
100 year floodway on the property, from 1994 station measurements and data for a flood study, and from 1999
measurements taken by N.B. White & Associates, Inc. (See Appendix A). These numbers indicate that the channel
bed next to the wall dropped significantly between 1990 and 1994. Since 1994 this deeper channel has widened,
eroding the banks of the island and exposing the footing of the wall. Results of a recent engineering study, done to
evaluate the condition of the wall and the stability of the footings by taking borings and completed in March of
2000, found a 1 foot depth of undercut where .6 foot was measured the previous October. A new crack was also
found in the footing at this location.
The initial recommendation from the study was to reinforce the footing by placing concrete under the wall
to bedrock, about 3'. A second alternative was to place only 18" of concrete under portions of the wall with the
understanding that it could be extended to bedrock at a later date. Temporary diversion of the stream into the far
channel during low flow would be necessary for both these alternatives. The report also recommended placing two
foot diameter boulders along the base of the wall after it is repaired.
The third alternative concurred with my recommendation to reroute the stream into the other channel to
reduce the scour potential. (See Appendix B). I also suggested using A-Jacks, along with stone, for the diversion, at
high impact areas along the wall, and at the other locations where hard armor is needed . Bioengineering methods
using soft armor and revegetation would be used to stabilize the remaining areas. The overall flow area for flood
conditions would not be changed significantly.
My clients prefer this solution and also plan to petition the Town of Chapel Hill for help through their
Drainage Assistance Program to alleviate some of the cost, however I will not submit plans for this action until
hearing your response to this Notification.
All the above mentioned reports are available at your request. I look forward to working with you to
successfully complete this project.

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Dear Mr. and Ms. Stem:

You have our approval, in accordance with the attached condition, to stabilize 180 linear feet of stream
channel on your.property in Orange County, as you described in your application received by the Division of Water
Quality on May 30, 2000. After reviewing your application, we have determined that this fill is covered by
General Water Quality Certification Numbers 3257. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit
Number 13 when it is issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. 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, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this approval will expire when the
accompanying 404 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 you may be required to send us a new application for a new certification. If
the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of the 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). For this approval to
be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and the additional condition listed
below.
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 Domey at 919-733-9646.
Sincerely,
Kerr T. Stevens
