Dear Mr. Bennett:
Subject: Proposed Fill in Wetlands or Waters
Road improvement, SR 1913
Wilkes County
DEM Project_# 93085, COE # 199301295
Upon review of your request for Water Quality Certification to place fill
material in 0.03 acres of wetlands or waters which are tributary to Grassy Fork
Creek for emergency road repair located at SR 1913 in Wilkes County, we have
determined that the proposed fill can be covered by General Water Quality
Certification No. 2745 issued January 21, 1992. A copy of the General
Certification is attached. This Certification may be used in qualifying for
coverage under Corps of Engineers' Nationwide Permit No. 3. This replaces the
previous certification (issued 25 February 1993) which was for Nationwide Permit
No. 14.
If you have any questions, please contact John Dorney at 919/733-1786.

Reference is made to your letter of February 1, 1993, regarding your plans
to discharge dredged/fill material into the waters/wetlands of unnamed
tributaries of Grassy Fork Creek, associated with the replacement of two
existing pipe culverts with the paving upgrade of S.R. 1913 (Minning Ridge
Road), Benham, Wilkes County, North Carolina. Reference is also made to
Mr. Joe Mickey's letter of February 4, 1993, in which the North Carolina
Wildlife Resources Commission expressed no objections to the planned road
improvements provided that:
a. No heavy equipment is operated in the live streams in order to
minimize sedimentation and prevent introduction of other pollutants.
b. Erosion control measures should be implemented where soil is disturbed
and maintained until project completion.
For the purposes of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program,
Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in the
Federal Register on November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits (NWP).
Authorization, pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899
and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was provided for the repair,
rehabilitation, or replacement of any previously authorized, currently
serviceable structure or fill; or of any currently serviceable structure or
fill constructed prior to the requirement for authorization, provided that the
structure or fill is not to be put to uses differing from those uses specified
or contemplated for it in the original permit or the most recently authorized
modification.
Dear Mr. Bennett:
-2-
Special conditions of this permit state that before discharging dredged or
fill material into waters of the United States occurring within the twenty-five
mountain counties of North Carolina that contain trout waters, the applicant
will obtain a letter of approval from the North Carolina Wildlife Resource
Commission. Review of the information you have provided, and the comments
submitted by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission, reveals that
your proposed work of the replacement of two existing culverts for the purpose
of upgrading to meet current safety standards, is authorized by NWP provided
it is accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions and the
recommendations set forth by the Wildlife Resources Commission. This
NWP does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any required State or
local approval. You should contact Mr. John Dorney, North Carolina Division
of Environmental Management, [phone], to obtain the necessary Section
401, Water Quality Certification prior to starting work.
This verification will be valid for 2 years from the date of this letter
unless the NWP authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. Also, this
verification will remain valid for the 2 years if, during that period, the NWP
authorization is reissued without modification or the activity complies with
any subsequent modification of the NWP authorization. If during the 2 years,
the NWP authorization expires or is suspended or revoked, or is modified, such
that the activity would no longer comply with the terms and conditions of the
NWP, activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are
under contract to commence in reliance upon the NWP will remain authorized
provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the date of the NWP's
expiration, modification or revocation, unless discretionary authority has
been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify, suspend, or revoke the
authorization.
Thank you for your time and cooperation. If you have any questions,
please contact Mr. John Thomas, Raleigh Regulatory Field office, telephone
[phone].
Sincerely,
G. Wayne Wright

Dear John:
The Department of Transportation is scheduled to grade, drain, base,
and pave primarily along the existing roadway of SR 1913 (Minning
Ridge Rd.), in Wilkes County during the 1993-1994 fiscal year. Due
to the proximity of said stream there are 2 existing cross line
drainage structures that will need replacing, or upgrading, in which
we are requesting a 404 Nationwide permit no. 14.
Attached is a straight line sketch with proposed erosion
control, stream, stream embankment, pipe crossings, construction
limits, and marked county map.
By copy of this letter I am asking Mr. Joe Mickey, Jr., of the North
Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission District Fisheries Biologist
to comment directly to you concerning the 404 Nationwide Permit
request.
Also by copy of this letter, I am requesting authorization to proceed
under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act from the Division of
Environmental Management.
