After reviewing your application, we have determined that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3375, which can be viewed on our web site at http://h2o.onr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 14 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 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. The culvert must be designed, constructed and placed to allow aquatic life passage; 2. You are required to return the attached Certification of Completion form to notify DWQ when all work included in the 401 Certification has been completed. 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, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. 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 Samar Bou-Ghazale in our Mooresville Regional Office at 704-663-1699 or Cyndi Karoly in the Central Office in Raleigh 919-733-9721.

NC DENR-DWQ Attn: Todd St. John 2321 Crabtree Blvd., Ste. 250 Raleigh, NC 27604 Re: DWQ#02-1311 Dear Todd: EIJ j y ?0W L,j IL I'm writing in response to a letter you sent to Mr. Jonathan Marshall with the Cabarrus County Planning Department dated August 26, 2002. In response to item number 1 crossing #2 does not impact a stream As for crossing #I the cross-section drawings prepared by the engineer show the proposed pipes buried more than 1 foot below grade thereby allowing aquatic passage. The crossings will comply with the USACE Nationwide 14 regional conditions as attached. As for locating all streams on the property we have located all `Waters' on the project. The project is linear and affected jurisdictional features have been flagged by S&EC, located by survey and reviewed by Steve Chapin (USACE). The surrounding land use is cultivated farmland. No other impacts are proposed with this project and we do not see justification in extending the delineation. The impact maps provided show adjacent topography for location purposes. We were unable to meet the 3-week response period outlined in your letter in large part because we were not directly sent a copy of the letter. In the future we would appreciate being copied on such correspondence for projects in which we've prepared the permit application.

This NWP cannot be used for private projects located in tidal waters or tidal wetlands. 8. The activities associated with this NWP require a pro-construction notification if they will result in the loss of greater than 150 total linear feet of perennial streambed or intermittent stream that exhibits important aquatic function(s). F. NWP #18 - Minor Discharges 1. This NWP may not be used in conjunction with NWP # 14 to create high ground for road access using NWP #14. 0 B. Prohibitions and Special Conditions for Use of All Nationwide Permits 1. For all Nationwide Permits, discharges into Waters of the United States designated by either the North Carolina Division of Marine Fisheries (NCDMF) or the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) as anadromous fish spawning area are prohibited during the period between February 15 and June 30, without prior written approval from NCDMF or NCWRC (see address in item I,A,6) and the Corps. To obtain information on a moratorium in specific waters and other information due to anadromous fish spawning activities, please contact: NC Division of Marine Fisheries, 3441 Arendell Street, Morehead City, NC 28557. Telephone 252-726- 7021 or 800-682-2632. North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, Habitat Conservation Program Manager, 1721 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1721. Telephone (919) 733-7638. 2. For all Nationwide Permits which allow the use of concrete as a building material, measures will be taken to prevent live or fresh concrete, including bags of uncured concrete, from coming into contact with waters of the state until the concrete has hardened. 3. For all Nationwide Permits that allow for the use of riprap material for bank stabilizatior> filter cloth must be placed underneath the riprap as an additional requirement of its use in North Carolina waters. 4. NWPs may not be used for activities that may result in the loss or degradation of greater than 300 total linear feet of perennial stream or intermittent stream that exhibits important aquatic function(s). [Note: The Corps uses the Intermittent Channel Evaluation Form, located with Permit Information on the Regulatory Program Web Ste to aid in the determination of the intermittent channel stream status.] 5. For all NWPs that involve the construction of culverts, measures will be included in the construction that will promote the safe passage of fish and other aquatic organisms. All culverts in the 20 CAMA coastal counties must be buried to a depth of one foot below the bed of the stream or wetland. For all culvert construction activities, the dimension, pattern, and profile of the stream, (above and below a pipe or culvert), should not be modified by widening the stream channel or by reducing the depth of the stream. Culvert inverts will be buried at least one foot below the bed of the stream for culverts greater than 48 inches in diameter. For culverts 48 inches in diameter or smaller, culverts must be buried below the bed of the stream to a depth equal to or greater than 20 percent of the diameter of the culvert. Bottomless arch culverts will satisfy this condition. A waiver from the depth specifications in this Regional Condition may be requested in writing. The waiver will only be issued if it can be demonstrated that the impacts of complying with this Regional condition would result in more adverse impacts to the aquatic environment.

August 15, 2002 S&EC #5-1070 NC DENR-DWQ Attn: Mr. John Dorney 2321 Crabtree Blvd., Suite 250 Raleigh, NC 27604-2260 The purpose of this letter is to request the use of Nationwide Permit 14 for the proposed Christenbury Parkway near Concord, NC. The proposed Christenbury Parkway is located approximately 1 mile west of Interstate 85 and upon completion will connect Christenbury and Derita roads (35°22'31"N, 80°43'52.72"W). The site is shown on the attached USGS Topo Quad vicinity map. Impacted channels are unnamed tributaries to Rocky River. Proposed impacts to `Waters' will total 3,849 square feet (.09 acres) including 145 linear feet of stream channel from road construction (see attached construction plans). Impacts will involve piping of a 7'-wide stream channel and filling one jurisdictional wetland area (see plans). Connection of Concord Mills Parkway to Christenbury Road as per the Cabarrus County thoroughfare plan is the purpose of the project. The proposed stream crossing will occur perpendicular to the impacted channel. Three 90" pipes are designed for the proposed stream crossing. The impacted wetland is of low quality and cannot be avoided due to its location relative to Concord Mills Road (see plans). One nearby stream and one adjacent wetland have been avoided by the proposed corridor alignment. Because impacts are below thresholds we believe the NC DWQ will not require compensatory mitigation. Included are: (1) a completed Pre-Construction Notification application, (2) signed Agent Authorization Form, (3) USGS Site Vicinity Map, (4) Soil Survey Map (5) Site Plans, (6) Crossing Profile, (7) Wetland data forms, and (8) a check for 401 fees.

Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond, local stormwater requirement, etc.): N/A Size of watershed draining to pond: N/A Expected pond surface area: N/A 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. Proposed impact to occur at perpendicular angle. Impact is minimum necessary for crossing. Proposed road will connect to existing road and existing wetland area cannot be avoided. 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. Page 7 of 12 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/ncwetiands/strmgide.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. Avoidance of other jurisdictional wetlands. Minimum impacts needed to construct road. Pipes will be buried below grade as per USACE regional conditions. Since impacts below thresholds compensator mitigation should not be rNuired by the NC DWQ. 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP) 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 http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wm/index.htm. If use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the following information: Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 0 Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): 0 Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0 Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0 Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0 VIII. Environmental Documentation (DWQ Only) Does the project involve an expenditure of public funds or the use of public (federaUstate/local) land? Yes ® No ? If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)? Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA coordinator at (919) 733-5083 to review current thresholds for environmental documentation. Yes ? No Page 8 of 12 If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter. Yes ? No ? IX. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (DWQ Only) It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the applicant's discretion. Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (Meuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify)? Yes ? No ® If you answered "yes", provide the following information: Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer multipliers. Zone* I ,^^[mpact `\ I Multiplier R'equi*ed I 1 N/A I 3 I N/A 1 2 N/A 1.5 N/A Total I N/A I I N/A * Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1. If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0260. X. 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. Sediment and erosion controls will be in place at the time of construction.
