Dear Mr. Moore:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
material in acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of improving SR 1188, as you described in your
application dated 5 September 1996 with a revision dated 19 March 1997. After reviewing your application,
we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3100. 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 except as
modified below. If you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new
application. 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) (6) and (7). For this approval to be
valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed
below. The channel change proposed in your 19 March 1997 letter is not approved. Applicant is reminded
that High Quality Waters. BMPs shall be used for this project. 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, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. This
approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the
General Certification.
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. 276 1 1-7447. This certification and its conditions
are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.

Dear Mr. Moore:
,&611* *
?EHNR
April 2, 1997

The Division of Water Quality has reviewed your plans for the relocation of an unnamed
tributary to Cane Creek in Mitchell County for upgrading SR 1188. Based on this review, we
have identified a significant use which would be removed by this project. This use is aquatic
life habitat. Furthermore, insufficient evidence is present in our files to conclude that your
project must be built as planned in waters and/or wetlands in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H
.0506. Therefore, we are moving toward denial of your 401 Certification as required by 15A
NCAC 2H .0507(e). Until we receive additional information, we are requesting (by copy of
this letter) that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of Coastal
Management place your project on administrative hold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position that your project must be
constructed as planned and that you have no practicable alternative to placing fill in these waters
and/or wetlands. Specifically can you avoid relocation of this stream? Your application shows
the channel change area, but does not include adequate illustration or description of the existing
stream; please provide this documentation with your response. Any documentation such as
maps and narrative that you can supply to address alternative designs for your project may be
helpful in our review of your 401 Certification. Also this project may require compensatory
stream mitigation as described in 15A NCAC 2H.0506(h) depending on the linear feet of
stream lost. Please respond within two weeks of the date of this letter by sending a copy of
this information to me and one copy to Mr. Mike Parker at the Asheville Regional Office at 59
Woodfin Place, Asheville, NC 28801. If we do not hear from you in two weeks, we will
assume that you no longer want to pursue this project and we will consider the project as
withdrawn. I can be reached at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions.

Dear Mr. Baker:
On September 5, 1996 we made application for Department of the Army
authorization to extend/replace five (5) culverts in unnamed tributaries to Cane Creek in
conjunction with the upgrading of SR 1188 Mack Gouge Road in Mitchell County. The
work was authorized on October 1, 1996 Action ID No. 199604362. We request a
revision to this permit to include a channel change from survey station 3+30 to survey
station 5+70 as shown on the attached straight line diagram.
By copy of this letter, I am requesting Stephanie Goudreau, North Carolina Wildlife
Resources Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to you
concerning the revision of this permit.
I am also sending a copy of this letter to the Division of Environmental
Management.

Dear Mr. Moore:
You have our approval to fill in 0.02 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of road improvements
at SR 1188, as you described in your application dated 5 September 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 except as
modified below. 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
and any additional conditions listed below. Sediment and erosion control measures should adhere to the design
standards for sensitive watersheds (T15A:04B.0024).. 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, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations.
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

Dear Mr. Baker:
cia)
m
I am attaching a straight line diagram with erosion
control plan, an application form for a nationwide permit,
and a county map section relative to the paving of SR 1188
Mack Gouge Road, in Mitchell County.
Mack Gouge Road is presently 12 to 14 feet wide. We
propose to pave the road 18 feet wide and increase the
typical section. The proposed typical section is also
attached. Grading will be light to moderate. The project
begins at NC 226 and continues in a northerly direction for a
distance of 0.32 mile.
We propose to extend/replace five pipes with live
streams at survey stations 0+10, 3+59, 5+44, 10+00, and
16+22.
By a copy of this letter, we are asking Stephanie
Goudreau, North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission
Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to you
concerning the nationwide permit request. A request to work
within the twenty-five foot buffer zone will be made to the
Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources at a
later date.
By copy of this letter, we are asking E. L. Ingle,,Area
Roadside Environmental Engineer, to comment on the above
project.

Subject: Nationwide Permit Request Revision
SR 1188, Mack Gouge Road
1996-1997 Residential Paving Project
Dear Mr. Baker:
On September 5, 1996 we made application for Department of the Army
authorization to extend/replace five (5) culverts in unnamed tributaries to Cane Creek in
conjunction with the upgrading of SR 1188 Mack Gouge Road in Mitchell County. The
work was authorized on October 1, 1996 Action ID No. 199604362. We request a
revision to this permit to include a channel change from survey station 3+30 to survey
station 5+70 as shown on the attached straight line diagram.
By copy of this letter, I am requesting Stephanie Goudreau, North Carolina Wildlife
Resources Commission Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to you
concerning the revision of this permit.
I am also sending a copy of this letter to the Division of Environmental
Management.

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
Mr. Stephen A. Moore
N.C. Dept. of Transportation
Route 1, Box 169C
Marion, NC 28752
Dear Mr. Moore:
You have our approval to fill in 0.02 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of road improvements
at SR 1188, as you described in your application dated 5 September 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 except as
modified below. 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
and any additional conditions listed below. Sediment and erosion control measures should adhere to the design
standards for sensitive watersheds (T15A:04B.0024).. 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, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations.
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 Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water
Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-1786.

I am attaching a straight line diagram with erosion
control plan, an application form for a nationwide permit,
and a county map section relative to the paving of SR 1188
Mack Gouge Road, in Mitchell County.
Mack Gouge Road is presently 12 to 14 feet wide. We
propose to pave the road 18 feet wide and increase the
typical section. The proposed typical section is also
attached. Grading will be light to moderate. The project
begins at NC 226 and continues in a northerly direction for a
distance of 0.32 mile.
We propose to extend/replace five pipes with live
streams at survey stations 0+10, 3+59, 5+44, 10+00, and
16+22.
By a copy of this letter, we are asking Stephanie
Goudreau, North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission
Mountain Region Coordinator, to comment directly to you
concerning the nationwide permit request. A request to work
within the twenty-five foot buffer zone will be made to the
Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources at a
later date.
By copy of this letter, we are asking E. L. Ingle,,Area
Roadside Environmental Engineer, to comment on the above
project.
