APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Mr. Martin Bolick
N.C. Dept. of Transportation
P.O. Box 1460
Boone, NC 28607
Dear Mr. Bolick:
You have our approval to place fill material in 0.01 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of
replacing two pipes at SR 1747 over Rock Creek, as you described in your application dated 4 March
1996. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water
Quality Certification Number 2735. This certification allows you to use General Permit Number 031
when it is issued by the Corps of Engineers.
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 this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification. In
addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your
project.
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 Environmental Management under Section
401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-
1786.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Chapin,
RECEIVED

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCES
4p11
,9S,
The N. C. Department of Transportation is proposing to grade,
drain, base, and pave SR 1747, Fowler Road, in Caldwell
County. As part of this project we are proposing to replace
two pipes carrying streams. The streams involved are unnamed
tributaries to Rock Creek and are classified by DEM as WS-IV.
Therefore, we are requesting a 404 Nationwide Permit for this
project.
I am sending a joint application form, a straight line sketch
with the proposed erosion control, roadway typical section,
notes on pipe installation, and a marked county map.
By copy of this letter, I am requesting Ms. Stephanie
Goudreau, Mountain Region Coordinator, 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.
We would like to perform this work as soon as possible. If
any further information is required, please advise. Your
early review and consideration will be greatly appreciated.
Sincerely,
Martin Bolick
District Engineer, NCDOT

PIPE INSTALLATION NOTES
1) Install erosion control devices. In streams, where
necessary, rock silt screens will be used.
2) Remove material and existing pipe while limiting, as much
as possible, material and sediment from entering a stream
and/or escaping from project.
3) Prepare pipe foundation while again taking care to limit,
as much as possible, material and sediment from entering
a stream and/or escaping from project. Where possible,
new grade will be below existing stream bed. If needed,
bedding material will be clean stone.
4) Place the new pipe and compact backfill.
5) Install slope protection on outlet and inlet ends of
pipe. Also complete installation of erosion control
measures and perform maintenance as needed on existing
measures.
6) Establish permanent vegetation as soon as possible.
