APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
Mr. Martin Bolick
NC DOT
PO Box 1460
Boone, NC 28607
Dear Mr. Martin Bolick:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact 0.01
acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of constructing a culvert in Caldwell County, as you described in
your application dated May 26, 1998. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this impact is
covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3103. This certification allows you to use
Nationwide Permit Number 14 when it is issued by the 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, 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.
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 a new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this
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) (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.
Sediment and erosion control measures shall adhere to the design standards for sensitive watersheds
(T 15A:04B.0024).
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 conforming 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.
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 Domey at 919-733-1786.

Dear Mr. Chapin:

The N. C. Department of Transportation is proposing to replace an existing 18" CMP
crossline pipe with a new 48" CMP on NC 268 approximately 0.30 mile east of SR
1507, in Caldwell County when the necessary permits are obtained. This pipe carries
an unnamed tributary to Yadkin River. Yadkin River has the DEM classification, C Tr.
Due to the proposed work, we are requesting a 404 Nationwide Permit.
I am sending a joint application form, a sketch with proposed erosion control, notes
on pipes installation, general notes on erosion control, and a marked county map.
By copy of this letter, I am requesting Mr. Joe Mickey, Western Piedmont Region
Coordinator, to comment directly to you concerning the 404 Nationwide Permit request.
Also, by copy of this letter, I am requesting a 401 Water Quality Certification from
the Division of Environmental Management for this project.
We would like to perform this work as soon as the necessary permits are obtained.
If addition information is required, please let me know. Your early review and
consideration will be greatly appreciated.
Yours truly,
`4,'- '-- 4

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 the 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 the stream and/or
escaping from project. Where possible, new grade will be below
existing streambed. 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.
GENERAL NOTES ON EROSION CONTROL
Silt Basin Type B's will be constructed to the dimension of six feet by three feet by
three feet unless otherwise noted on the plans.
Generally, the order of installation of the erosion control measures will be as follows:
Temporary Silt Basins shall be installed before clearing and
grubbing begins.
Silt Fences and Temporary Silt Ditches shall be installed as soon
as ditchline is established.
Temporary Stone Ditch Checks shall be installed as soon as soon as
ditchline is established.
Pipe Outlet and Inlet Protection will be done as soon as pipe is installed.
Seeding and Other Permanent Erosion Control Measures are to
be implemented as soon as practical.
Temporary Rock Silt Checks (Type B) will be spaced as required by percent of grade
as Described on page VIA6 in the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Guidelines.
No. 5 Stone, or equivalent, will be used in conjunction with Temporary Rock Silt Check
Type-B in location where water is leaving the project or entering pipe.
Where the plan calls for a rip-rap lined ditch to be installed, temporary silt basins and
rock check dams will be constructed and maintained until the final rip-rap lined ditch
can be constructed.
