North Carolina Department of Transportation
P.O. Box 25201
Raleigh, NC, 27611-5201
Dear Mr. Gilmore:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to
place fill material in 0.19 acres of wetlands and 908 linear feet of streams for the purpose of
constructing improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 1361. The project should be
constructed in accordance with your application dated 25 May 1999 (received 21 June 1999).
After reviewing your application, we have decided your application is covered by General
Water Quality Certification Numbers 3108 and 3103. These certifications correspond to the
Nationwide Permit Numbers 26 and 14, respectively issued by the Corps of Engineers. In
addition, you should acquire any other federal, state or local permits before you proceed with
your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge and
Water Supply Watershed regulations. This approval will expire with the accompanying 404
permit unless otherwise specified in the Water Quality Certification.
This approval is valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless
modified below). Should your project change, you must notify the DWQ and submit a new
application. 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 the conditions. If total wetl9nd
fills for the project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or
in the future) exceed 150 linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in
15A NCAC 211.0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to remain valid, you must adhere to all
the conditions listed in the attached certification.
Compensatory mitigation shall be done for 872 linear feet of stream impact. We understand that
you have chosen to perform mitigation through an in lieu payment to the North Carolina
Wetland Restoration Program (NCWRP), and that the WRP has agreed to implement mitigation
for the project. In accordance with 15A NCAC 2R.0500, the contribution will satisfy our
compensatory mitigation requirements under 15A NCAC 211.0506(h). Until the Wetland
Restoration Program receives and clears your check (made payable to DENR - Wetland
Restoration Program), wetland or stream fill shall not occur. Mr. Ron Ferrell should be
contacted at 919-733-5083 ext. 358 if you have any questions concerning the Wetland
Restoration Program. The payment to NCWRP shall be sent within two months of issuance of
the 404 permit.

On June 21, 1999, your application (dated May 25, 1999) for a 401 Water Quality Certification for the
project listed above was received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality. The Division will begin to review
the project for eventual decision. However, please be aware that beginning January 1, 1999 that the N.C.
General Assembly passed legislation requiring payment of a fee of $ 475.00 for this project. The 401
Certification cannot be issued until this fee is paid. Presently, the Department of Transportation and
Environment and Natural Resources are developing a process so these fees will not have to be paid
separately for each project. We anticipate that this agreement will be finalized soon. However until this
agreement is completed we will not be able to complete our action on your request. Until that time, your
application will remain on hold as incomplete. In addition, the NCDWQ requests that you please submit
additional 6 copies of your permit application.
If you have any questions or require any additional information, please contact John Hennessy at 919-733-

SUBJECT: Henderson County, Improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 1361,
TIP No. R-2214B, State Project No. 8.1951101, Federal Aid Project
No. STP-25(3)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to widen existing
US 25 to five lanes to improve traffic flow and improve safety. The project begins at the
intersection of US 25 and SR 1361 in the township of Fletcher in Henderson County and
ends at the intersection of US 25 and US 25A/NC 280 south of Asheville in Buncombe
County. Impacts associated with this project were evaluated in an Environmental
Assessment dated March 29, 1996 and a Finding of No Significant Impact dated
March 18, 1997.
US 25 will be widened on existing alignment to a five-lane, 66.0 foot curb and
gutter section. This width includes 14.0 foot outside lanes to accommodate bicycle
traffic, 11.0 foot inside through lanes and a 12.0 foot inside turning lane. The bridge over
I-26 will be restriped to accommodate six lanes. Two left-turn lanes will replace the
existing single left-turn lane shared by each direction. The widening will be
asymmetrical as described on page 9 of the referenced Environmental Assessment.
Enclosed please find a project site map, and a pre-construction notification form.
This project will impact approximately 0.14 acre of jurisdictional wetlands and
approximately 741.0 linear feet of jurisdictional surface waters. It is anticipated that
construction of this project will be authorized under a Department of the Army
Nationwide Permit No. 14. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting a 401 General

Dear Sir:

SUBJECT: Henderson County. Improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 136!.
TIP No. R-2214B, State Project No. 8.195110 1, Federal Aid Project
No. STP-25(3)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to widen existing
US 25 to five lanes to improve traffic flow and improve safety. The project begins at the
intersection of US 25 and SR 1361 in the township of Fletcher in Henderson County and
ends at the intersection of US 25 and US 25A/NC 280 south of Asheville in Buncombe
County. Impacts associated with this project were evaluated in an Environmental
Assessment dated March 29, 1996 and a Finding of No Significant Impact dated
March 18, 1997.
. US 25 will be widened on existing alignment to a five-lane, 66.0 foot curb and
gutter section. This width includes 14.0 foot outside lanes to accommodate bicycle
traffic, 11.0 foot inside through lanes and a 12.0 foot inside turning lane. The bridge over
I-26 will be restriped to accommodate six lanes. Two left-turn lanes will replace the
existing single left-turn lane shared by each direction. The widening will be
asymmetrical as described on page 9 of the referenced Environmental Assessment.
Enclosed please find a project site map, and a pre-construction notification form.
This project will impact approximately 0.14 acre of jurisdictional wetlands and
approximately 741.0 linear feet of jurisdictional surface waters. It is anticipated that
construction of this project will be authorized under a Department of the Army
Nationwide Permit No. 14. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting a 401 General

Dear Sir:
E. NoRRis TOLSON
SECRETARY
SUBJECT: Henderson County, Improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 136
TIP No. R-2214B, State Project No. 8.195110 1, Federal Aid Proiect
No. STP-25(3)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to widen existing
US 25 to five lanes to improve traffic flow and improve safety. The project begins at the
intersection of US 25 and SR 1361 in the township of Fletcher in Henderson County and
ends at the intersection of US 25 and US 25A/NC 280 south of Asheville in Buncombe
County. Impacts associated with this project were evaluated in an Environmental
Assessment dated March 29, 1996 and a Finding of No Significant Impact dated
March 18, 1997.
US 25 will be widened on existing alignment to a five-lane, 66.0 foot curb and
gutter section. This width includes 14.0 foot outside lanes to accommodate bicycle
traffic, 11.0 foot inside through lanes and a 12.0 foot inside turning lane. The bridge over
I-26 will be restriped to accommodate six lanes. Two left-turn lanes will replace the
existing single left-turn lane shared by each direction. The widening will be
asymmetrical as described on page 9 of the referenced Environmental Assessment.
Enclosed please find a project site map, and a pre-construction notification form.
This project will impact approximately 0.14 acre of jurisdictional wetlands and
approximately 741.0 linear feet of jurisdictional surface waters. It is anticipated that
construction of this project will be authorized under a Department of the Army
Nationwide Permit No. 14. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting a 401 General

2
Water Quality Certification # 3103 (for NWP 14) from the NC Division of Water
Quality. If you have any questions or need any additional information, please contact
Mr. Lindsey Riddick at [phone] extension 315.

Dear S:,
SUBJECT: Henderson County, Improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 1361,
TIP No. R-2214B, State Proiect No. 8.1951101, Federal Aid Proiec? .
No. STP-25(=
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to widen existing US 25 to
five lanes to improve traffic flow and improve safety. The project begins at the
intersection of US 25 and SR 1361 in the township of Fletcher in Henderson County and
ends at the intersection of US 25 and US 25A/NC 280 south of Asheville in Buncombe
County. Impacts associated with this project were evaluated in an Environmental
Assessment dated March 29, 1996 and a Finding of No Significant Impact dated
March 18, 1997.
US 25 will be widened on existing alignment to a five-lane, 66.0 foot curb and gutter
section. This width includes 14.0 foot outside lanes to accommodate bicycle traffic,
11.0 foot inside through lanes and a 12.0 foot inside turning lane. The bridge over I-26
will be. restriped to accommodate six lanes. Two left-turn lanes will replace the existing
single left-turn lane shared by each direction. The widening will be asymmetrical as
described on page 9 of the referenced Environmental Assessment.
The USACE has expressed concern about the amount of tail ditching at permit sites 6 and
7 from the original permit application, dated August 20, 1998. In an October 27, 1998
memorandum, the USACE requested that the tail ditching be reduced at sites 6 and 7.
Site 6 involves the piping of approximately 386 linear feet of perennial stream channel, as
well as 98.4 linear feet of tail ditching. The total length of tail ditching was reduced from
141.0 linear feet to 98.4 linear feet. As requested, tail ditching at site 7 was reduced from

2
the originally proposed 551.0 linear feet to 150.0 linear feet. Plan sheets depicting the
described revisions ark included for your review. A revised table showing impacts to
waters oft :iiitedRStates is shown as Table 1.

Dear S11"
SUBJECT: Henderson County. Improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 1361,
TIP No. R-2214B, State Project No. 8.1951101, Federal Aid Protect
No. STP-25(3)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to widen existing US 25 to
five lanes to improve traffic flow and improve safety. The project begins at the
intersection of US 25 and SR 1361 in the township of Fletcher in Henderson County and
ends at the intersection of US 25 and US 25A/NC 280 south of Asheville in Buncombe
County. Impacts associated with this project were evaluated in an Environmental
Assessment dated March 29, 1996 and a Finding of No Significant Impact dated
March 18, 1997.
US 25 will be widened on existing alignment to a five-lane, 66.0 foot curb and gutter
section. This width includes 14.0 foot outside lanes to accommodate bicycle traffic,
11.0 foot inside through lanes and a 12.0 foot inside turning lane. The bridge over 1-26
will be restriped to accommodate six lanes. Two left-turn lanes will replace the existing
single left-turn lane shared by each direction. The widening will be asymmetrical as
described on page 9 of the referenced Environmental Assessment.
The USACE has expressed concern about the amount of tail ditching at permit sites 6 and
7 from the original permit application, dated August 20, 1998. In an October 27, 1998
memorandum, the USACE requested that the tail ditching be reduced at sites S and 7.
Site 6 involves the piping of approximately 386 linear feet of perennial stream channel. as
well as 98.4 linear feet of tail ditching. The total length of tail ditching was reduced from
141.0 linear feet to 98.4 linear feet. As requested, tail ditching at site 7 was reduced from

A 'W s
the originally proposed 551.0 linear feet to 150.0 linear feet. Plan sheets depicting the
described revisions are included for your review. A revised table showing impacts to
waters of the United States is shown as Table 1.

The NCDOT proposes to mitigate for impacts to 872.4 linear feet of stream
impact at sites 1, 2, 6, and 7 through the North Carolina Wetland Restoration Program. 1
is anticipated that construction of this project will be authorized under Department of the
Army Nationwide Permit Nos. 14 and 26. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting a
401 General Water Quality Certification from the NC Division of Water Quality. If you
have any questions or need any additional information, please contact Mr. Lindsey
Riddick at [phone] extension 315.

SUBJECT:- Henderson County, Improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 136:..
TIP No. R-2214B, State Project No. 8.1951101, Federal Aid Project
No. STP-25(3)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to widen existing US 25 to
five lanes to improve traffic flow and improve safety. The project begins at the
intersection of US 25 and SR 1361 in the township of Fletcher in Henderson County and
ends at the intersection of US 25 and US 25A/NC 280 south of Asheville in Buncombe
County. Impacts associated with this project were evaluated in an Environmental
Assessment dated March 29, 1996 and a Finding of No Significant Impact dated
March 18, 1997.
US 25 will be widened on existing alignment to a five-lane, 66.0 foot curb and gutter
section. This width includes 14.0 foot outside lanes to accommodate bicycle traffic,
11.0 foot inside through lanes and a 12.0 foot inside turning lane. The bridge over I-26
will be restriped to accommodate six lanes. Two left-turn lanes will replace the existing
single left-turn lane shared by each direction. The widening will be asymmetrical as
described on page 9 of the referenced Environmental Assessment.
The USACE has expressed concern about the amount of tail ditching at permit sites 6 and
7 from the original permit application, dated August 20, 1998. In an October 27, 1998
memorandum, the USACE requested that the tail ditching be reduced at sites 6 and 7.
Site 6 involves the piping of approximately 386 linear feet of perennial stream channel. as
well as 98.4 linear feet of tail ditching. The total length of tail ditching was reduced from
141.0 linear feet to 98.4 linear feet. As requested, tail ditching at site 7 was reduced -from

SUBJECT: Henderson County, Improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 1361,
TIP No. R-2214B, State Project No. 8.1951101, Federal Aid Project
No. STP-25(3)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to widen existing US 25 to
five lanes to improve traffic flow and improve safety. The project begins at the
intersection of US 25 and SR 1361 in the township of Fletcher in Henderson County and
ends at the intersection of US 25 and US 25A/NC 280 south of Asheville in Buncombe
County. Impacts associated with this project were evaluated in an Environmental
Assessment dated March 29, 1996 and a Finding of No Significant Impact dated
March 18; 1997.
US 25 will be widened on existing alignment to a five-lane, 66.0 foot curb and gutter
section. This width includes 14.0 foot outside lanes to accommodate bicycle traffic,
l L' 'toot inside through lanes and a 12.0 foot inside turning lane. The bridge over I-26
will be restriped to accommodate six lanes. Two left-turn lanes will replace the existing
single left=turn lane shared by each direction. The widening will be asymmetrical as
described on palp 9 .of the referenced Environmental Assessment.
The USACE has expressed concern about the amount of tail ditching at permit sites 6 and
7 from the original permit application, dated August 20, 1998. In an October 27, 1998
memorandum, the USACE requested that the tail ditching be reduced at sites 6 and 7.
Site 6 involves the piping of approximately 386 linear feet of perennial stream channel ' as
well as 98.4 linear feet of tail ditching. The total length of tail ditching was reduced from
141.0 linear feet to 98.4 linear feet. As requested, tail ditching at site 7 was reduced from

the originally proposed 551.0 linear feet to 150.0 linear feet. Plan sheets depicting the
described revisions are included for your review. A revised table showing impacts to
waters of the United States is shown as Table 1.

The NCDO-1 proposes to mitigate for impacts to 872.4 linear feet of stream
impact at sites`-1, 2, 6, and 7 through the North Carolina Wetland Restoration Program. It
is anticipated that construction of this project will be authorized under Department of the
Army Nationwide Permit Nos. 14 and 26. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting a
401 General Water Quality Certification from the NC Division of Water Quality. if you

Asheville, North Carolina 28801-50(''
ATTN: Mr. Steve Lund
NCDOT Coordinator
Bear Si_:
SUBJECT: Henderson County, Improvements to US 25 from SR 1528 to SR 1361.
TIP No. R-2214B, State Proiect No. 8.195 Federal Aid Proie:;:
No. STP-25(3)
The North Carolina Department of Transportation proposes to widen existing US 25 to
five lanes to improve traffic flow and improve safety. The project begins at the
intersection of US 25 and SR 1361 in the township of Fletcher in Henderson County and
F ends at the intersection of US 25 and US 25A/NC 280 south of Asheville in Buncombe
.County. Impacts associated with this project were evaluated in an Environmental
Assessment dated March 29, 1996 and a Finding of No Significant Impact dated
March 19, 1997.
US 25 .will, be widened on existing alignment to a five-lane, 66.0 foot curb and gutter
section. This width includes 14.0 foot outside lanes to accommodate bicycle traffic,
11.0 foot inside through lanes and a 12.0 foot inside turning lane. The bridge over I-26
will be restriped to accommodate six lanes. Two left-turn lanes will replace the existing
single left-turnlane shared by each direction. The widening will be asymmetrical as
described on page 9 of the referenced Environmental Assessment.
The1, has expressed concern about the amount of tail ditching at permit sites 6 and
7 from the original permit application, dated August 20, 1998. In an October 27, 1998
,.the USACE'requested that the tail ditching be reduced at sites 6 and 7.
memorandum
Site 6 involves the piping of approximately 386 linear feet of perennial stream channel as
well as 98.4 linear feet of tail ditching. The total length of tail ditching was reduced from
141.0 linear feet to 98.4 linear feet. As requested, tail ditching at site 7 was reduced from
0

2
the originally proposed 551.0 linear feet to 150.0 linear feet. Plan sheets depicting the
described revisions are included for your review. A revised table showing impacts to
waters of the United States is shown as Table 1.

The NCDOT proposes to mitigate for impacts to 872.4 linear feet of stream
impact at sites 1, 2, 6, and 7 through the North Carolina Wetland Restoration Program. It
is anticipated that construction of this project will be authorized under Department of the
Anny Nationwide Permit Nos. 14 and 26. By copy of this letter, we are also requesting a
401 General Water Quality Certification from the NC Division of Water Quality. If you
have any questions or need any additional information, please contact Mr. Lindsey
Riddickat (919).733-7844 extension 315.
