Subject: Remediation of Former Fayetteville Manufactured Gas Plant
Dear Ms. Moore and Mr. Dorney:
Previously, in a letter and PCN dated February 26, 2002, Carolina Power & Light Company
(CP&L) applied for authorization from the Corps and DWQ to remediate the above site.
Authorization was granted by the Corps under Nationwide Permit No. 38 on April 1, 2002
(Action ID: 200200608) and by the DWQ under General Certification 3116 on March 8,
2002 (DWQ# 02-0305).
In our initial application, we noted that we did not anticipate excavating the creek bottom, but
that such excavation might be required. Both the Corps and DWQ approved such excavation
(up to 145 linear feet of stream) in the above authorizations.
In subsequent discussions with the Division of Waste Management, we have been asked to
proceed with excavating approximately 80 linear feet of the stream bottom. We anticipate
excavating the bottom to the clay layer, which equates to removal of from 0 to 1.5 feet
(averaging approximately 1.0 foot) of the bottom. Because of the short distance and shallow
depth to be excavated, we believe that allowing the stream to naturally "repopulate" the
bottom with upstream substrate material will be more effective and less environmentally
disturbing than for us to attempt to replace the removed material.
We are seeking your concurrence with that course of action.
Please contact Mr. Buzz Bryson at 919-362-3551 if we can provide additional information.
Very truly yours,
Benjamin C. White, Manager

Subject: Remediation of Former Fayetteville Manufactured Gas Plant
Dear Ms. Moore and Mr. Dorney:
February 26, 2002
FEB 2 8 2002
Carolina Power & Light Company (CP&L) and North Carolina Natural Gas Company
(NCNG) are in the process of remediating a former manufactured gas plant (MGP) site in
Fayetteville (enclosed Figure 1) in cooperation with the NCDENR's Division of Waste
Management. The remediation will involve removal of contaminated soil at the site, and
restoration of the area to pre-construction contours with unimpacted soil, and
revegetation with native species.
We are seeking concurrence from the Corps of Engineers and the Division of Water
Quality to conduct the remediation project under Nationwide Permit No. 38 and the
associated water quality certificate.
As shown on the enclosed Figure 2, we currently plan to remediate six areas at the site,
including the two larger areas (Areas 1 and 2) on either side of Cross Creek. A prior
determination has shown there are no wetlands on the site; however, Cross Creek itself is
jurisdictional. Though not currently envisioned in the Remedial Action Plan, the
remediation may potentially require that we strip the riparian vegetation and some soil
from up to 140-145 feet of the creek (the area of the creek between Zones 1 and 6 on the
south bank, and Zone 2 on the north bank). We do not anticipate removing material from
the stream bottom at this time. However, on-going examination of the material during
the remediation process may result in expansion of the area requiring excavation.
Should the remediation require removal of the soil to elevations near the stream bank, we
anticipate placing silt fence, turbidity curtain, heavy-duty erosion control mat, or similar
appropriate structures temporarily along the streambank to prevent sediment from
entering the stream. Otherwise, erosion will be controlled with more conventional means
as described in the erosion and sedimentation control plan (filed separately with the
Division of Land Resources).
P.O. Box 1551
Raleigh, NC 27602
Following completion of work, CP&L will utilize bio-logs to temporarily stabilize the
streambank. Native vegetation, including a mixture of woody and herbaceous species,
will be replanted on the streambank as described in the erosion and sedimentation control
plan specifications.
We anticipate the project will start around April 15, 2002, and be completed by
approximately August 30, 2002.
Please contact Mr. Buzz Bryson at 919-362-3551 if we can provide additional
information.

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 form 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://www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands/Perm. app.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 http://www.saNv.usace.arrny.mil/wetlands/regtour.htm, 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://h2o.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 [phone].
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).
Page 1 of 13
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 [phone]. 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 (LAMA) Permit and will coordinate
the 404/401 Permits.
USACE 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 permits, 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 htip://www.saw.usace.anny.mil/wetlands/nwpfinalFedReLg.pdf.
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 USACE
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 http://h2o.ehnr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/fees.html. 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
Page 7 of 13
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.
Site remediation plan was developed in cooperation with NCDENR's Division of Waste
Management under an Administrative Order on Consent (AOC). The remediation requires
removal of contaminated soil. Though not envisioned in the Remedial Action Plan, site
conditions during the remediation may require the excavation of soils on the stream bank. Upon
completion, the site will be restored to pre-construction contours, and impacted stream banks (if
any) will be revegetated with native plants. All impacts will be temporary, and there will be no
loss of waters or wetlands. Work will be conducted under a NCDENR-approved erosion and
sedimentation control plan, and various measures (e. g. silt fence, sediment traps, heavy-duty
erosion control matting, temporary seeding) will be taken to prevent soil from entering streams.
VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .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
hLtp://li2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/stn-ngide.html.

XI. Stormwater (DWQ Only)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
Impervious acreage will not be increased on the site. Instead, approximately 0.30 acres of asphalt
currently on the site will be removed as a result of the Remedial Action. Standard erosion control
devices will be employed to protect surface waters such as silt fences, silt curtain, sediment traps
and stabilized construction entrances. These erosion control measures will be implemented in
accordance with an erosion and sedimentation control plan approved by NCDENR - Division of
Land Resources prior to initiation of the Remedial Action.
XII. Sewage Disposal (DWQ Only)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
N/A
XIII. Violations (DWQ Only)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H .0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
