APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and Neuse River Buffer Rules with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Davis:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill in 90 linear feet of streams, 0.0579 acre of wetlands and
8,128 square feet of Neuse Buffers in order to construct a road crossing at the Braefield Residential Subdivision in Wake County, as
described in your application received by the Division of Water Quality on January 30, 2002. After reviewing your application, we have
determined that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3289, which can be downloaded from our web site at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands . This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 14 when issued by the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers. 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, 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 in writing 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 as well as the additional conditions
listed below:
1. An additional condition is that stormwater shall be directed to diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected stream
buffers;
2. Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all remaining jurisdictional wetlands and waters or areas within 50 feet of
all streams and ponds. These mechanisms shall be put in place within 30 days of the date of this letter or the issuance of the 404
Permit (whichever is later). A sample deed notification format can be downloaded from the 401/Wetlands Unit web site at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetiands .
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 Quay under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have any
questions, please telephone Steve Mitchell in our Raleigh Regional Office at 919-571-4700 or Cyndi Karoly in the Central Office at 919-
733-9721.

RE: Nationwide Permit 14, 401-Water Quality Certification, and Compliance with the
Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rules
Braefield Residential Subdivision
Wake Crossroads, Wake County, North Carolina
(UTM Coordinates: Zone 17, 24""" E, 3974320m N)
Dear Mr. Dorney and Ms. Jones:
On behalf of Skip Davis, (property owner), we hereby request authorization from the US
Army Corps of Engineers to use Nationwide Permit 14 to cover permanent impacts to a
perennial stream channel and a portion of an adjacent wetland. We also request
confirmation from the NC Division of Water Quality (NC-DWQ) that the project
complies with the 401-Water Quality Certification as well as the Neuse River Riparian
Buffer Rules. A Pre-construction Notification Application (PCN) is attached, which
includes an agent authorization form.
The proposed Braefield Subdivision is located east of Forrestville Road (SR 2049)
approximately 0.6 miles south of the intersection of Highway 401 and Forrestville Road.
The site is in Wake County North Carolina near the community of Wake Crossroads. The
attached USGS site vicinity map (Figure 1) and the Wake County Soil Survey site
vicinity map (Figure 2) show the site locations on those maps. The proposed residential
development land was purchased by Skip Davis from Margie and Richard Heath and was
part of a larger tract that extended further east. The Property Pin # for the project site is
1747.02-69-0482.
The property is bisected by a perennial stream channel that parallels Forrestville Road.
The majority of the property is on the far side of the stream channel from Forrestville
Road and is inaccessible without a road crossing over the stream channel. The impacts to

the stream channel have been minimized to 90 linear feet (including rip-rap dissipater).
The proposed road will also impact 2,520 ft2 (0.0579 acre) of an emergent wetland that
is adjacent to the stream channel. The road crossing will be perpendicular to the channel
and will comply with the general conditions of Nationwide Permit 14.
Neuse Buffers were not confirmed by NC-DWQ staff, however, they are as shown on the
Soil Survey map (attached). The perpendicular stream crossing will impact 8,128 ft2
(0.1866 acre) of riparian buffer. DWQ's current policy requires buffer mitigation if
buffer impacts exceed 1/3 acre or 150 linear feet per tributary. Because impacts to the
stream buffers only total 0.1866 acres, S&EC does not believe buffer mitigation should
be required.
Current DWQ policy requires mitigation if stream impacts to a single tributary exceed
150 linear feet. Current USACE pjay require stream mitigation for any
impact to important channels. Because impacts to the stream channel only total 90 linear
feet (i.e. less than 150') and efforts have been made to minimize impacts to the stream,
S&EC does not believe that stream mitigation should be required. If for some reason
stream mitigation is required, our client proposes payment to the NC Wetlands
Restoration Program.
Please call me or email me at SClarkQSandEC.com if you have any questions or if a site
meeting will be required.

Sean Clark

General Water Quality Certifications, and Riparian Buffer and Watershed Buffer Rules
This form is to be used for projects qualifying for any of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' (USACE)
Nationwide, Regional or General Permits as required by Section 404 of the Clean Water Act and/or
Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act, and for the North Carolina Division of Water Quality's
(DWQ) associated General 401 Water Quality Certifications. This form is also to be used for any
project requiring approval under any Riparian Buffer Rules implemented by the N.C. Division of Water
Quality. This fonn should not be used if you are requesting an Individual 404 Permit or Individual 401
Water Quality Certification. The USACE Individual Permit application form is available online at
http-//w?vw__saw.usace.armv_mil/wetlarid_s/Perm af?p.htm.
The USACE is the lead regulatory agency. To review the requirements for the use of Nationwide,
Regional or General permits, and to determine which permit applies to your project, please go to the
USACE website at httfl://www.saw.usace.arrny.niiI/wetlands/reLtour.litni, or contact one of the field
offices listed at the end of this application. The website also lists the responsible project manager for
each county in North Carolina and provides additional information regarding the identification and
regulation of wetlands and waters of the U.S.
The DWQ issues a corresponding Certification (General or Individual), and cannot tell the applicant
which 401 Certification will apply until the 404 Permit type has been determined by the USACE.
Applicants are encouraged to visit DWQ's 401/Wetlands Unit website at
http://l12o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands to read about current requirements for the 401 Water Quality
Certification Program and to determine whether or not Riparian Buffer Rules are applicable. The
applicant is also advised to read the full text of the General Certification (GC) matching the specific 404
Permit requested. In some cases, written approval for some General Certifications is not required,
provided that the applicant adheres to all conditions of the GC. Applicants lacking access to the internet
should contact DWQ's Central Office in Raleigh at (919) 733-1786.
Trout Waters Coordination - Special coordination with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources
Commission (NCWRC) is also required for projects occurring in any of North Carolina's twenty-five
counties that contain trout waters. In such cases, the applicant should contact the appropriate NCWRC
regional coordinator (listed by county on the last page of this application).
Pale I of 12
CAMA Coordination - If the project occurs in any of North Carolina's twenty coastal counties (listed on
the last page of this application) the applicant should also contact the North Carolina Division of Coastal
Management (DCM) at (919) 733-2293. DCM will determine whether or not the project involves a
designated Area of Environmental Concern, in which case DCM will act as the lead permitting agency.
In such cases, DCM will require a Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) Permit and will coordinate
the 404/401 Permits.
USAGE Permits - Submit one copy of this form, along with supporting narratives, maps, data forms,
photos, etc. to the applicable USACE Regulatory Field Office (addresses are listed at the end of this
application). Upon receipt of an application, the USACE will determine if the application is complete as
soon as possible, not to exceed 30 days. This PCN form is designed for the convenience of the applicant
to address information needs for all USACE Nationwide, Regional or General pennits, as well as
information required for State authorizations, certifications, and coordination. Fully providing the
information requested on this form will result in a complete application for any of the USACE
Nationwide, Regional or General permits. To review the minimum amount of information that must be
provided for a complete PCN for each USACE Nationwide permit, see Condition 13, 65 Fed.Reg. 12893
(March 9, 2000), available at littp://www.saw.usace.arl-ny.mil/wetlands/nwpfinalFedRef,,.pdt.
Processing times vary by permit and begin once the application has been determined to be complete.
Please contact the appropriate regulatory field office for specific answers to permit processing periods.
401 Water Quality Certification or Buffer Rules - All information is required unless otherwise stated
as optional. Incomplete applications will be returned. Submit seven collated copies of all USAGE
Permit materials to the Division of Water Quality, 401/Wetlands Unit, 1650 Mail Service Center,
Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650. If written approval is required or specifically requested for a 401
Certification, then a non-refundable application fee is required. In brief, if project impacts include less
than one acre of cumulative wetland/water impacts and less than 150 feet cumulative impacts to
streams, then a fee of $200 is required. If either of these thresholds is exceeded, then a fee of $475 is
required. A check made out to the North Carolina Division of Water Quality, with the specific name of
the project or applicant identified, should be stapled to the front of the application package. For more
information, see the DWQ website at littp://Ii2o.chnr.state.nc.us/ncwctlands/fees.htm1. The fee must be
attached with the application unless the applicant is a federal agency in which case the check may be
issued from a separate office. In such cases, the project must be identifiable on the U.S. Treasury check
so that it can be credited to the appropriate project. If written approval is sought solely for Buffer Rules,
the application fee does not apply, and the applicant should clearly state (in a cover letter) that only
Buffer Rule approval is sought in writing. Wetlands or waters of the U.S. may not be impacted prior to
issuance or waiver of a Section 401 Water Quality Certification. Upon receipt of a complete application
for a 401 Certification, the Division of Water Quality has 60 days to prepare a written response to the
applicant. This may include a 401 Certification, an on-hold letter pending receipt of additional
requested information, or denial.

VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
As Der conversations with the project enmineer, Mac McIntyre (McIntyre & Assocs), the
property was purchased from Margie and Richard Heath by Skip Davis. In order to access the
property and intersect with Forrestville Road a buffered stream channel will need to be crossed.
The channel is being crossed at a perpendicular angle in order to minimize the disturbance.
Without the road crossing the majority of the property would be inaccessible.

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 211 .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as
incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration
in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http:/,/h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetIancis/stiint-,ide.html.
Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
Because the stream is being crossed perpendicularly and the impacts have been
minimized to only 90 linear feet of stream channel, S&EC does not believe that stream
mitigation should be required.
Page 8 of' 12
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWIZP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401 /Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at htq,_/i_12o__cnr stttcxu .us/wip/index.htrn If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
