Dear Mr. Gilmore:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
material in 100 linear of streams for the purpose of improving SR 1257 in Bertie County. The project shall
add two new culvert pipes in addition to the existing pipe. The project should be constructed in accordance
with your application dated September 25, 2000 (received September 26, 2000). After reviewing your
application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3289.
This certification corresponds to the Nationwide Permit Number 14 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 wetland tills for this 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 2H.0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to
remain valid, you must adhere to the conditions listed in the attached certification.
1.) Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of
Completion Form" to notify DWQ when all work included in the 401 Certification has been completed.
The responsible party shall complete the attached form and return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the
Division of Water Quality upon completion of the 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 that 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.

maintained to have minimal disturbance to protect water quality to the maximum extent practicable
through the use of best management practices. Activities listed as."exempt" from these rules do not need
to apply for written concurrence under this Certification;
6. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands must be placed below the
elevation of the streambed to allow low flow passage of water and aquatic life unless it can be shown to
DWQ that providing passage would be impractical. Design and placement of culverts and other
structures including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may
result in dis-equilibrium of wetlands or stream beds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream
of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium shall be
maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. Additionally, when roadways, causeways or other fill
projects are constructed across FEMA-designated floodways or wetlands, openings such as culverts or
bridges must be provided to maintain the natural hydrology of the system as well as prevent constriction
of the floodway that may result in destabilization of streams or wetlands;
7. If this Certification is used to access building sites, all lots owned by the applicant must be buildable
without additional fill beyond that allowed under other General Certifications. Deed restrictions must be
placed on the remaining wetlands and streams on these lots to restrict future wetland and stream fill.

SUBJECT: Request for Section 404 Authorization for Anticipated Impacts to Waters
Resulting from Pipe Additions to SR 1257 in Bertie County
The Department of Transportation proposes to place two additional pipes under
SR 1257 (Bertie County) for better drainage. These pipes will be the same size and length
of the present pipe, b e` o do urposes -and will
increase the vi 1 o s orn 6 eet'across to 25 feet." No wetlands are present on
this site due to too high of elevation, steepness in slope, and an existing bulkhead.
Since Bertie County is a coastal county, Steve Trowell from North Carolina
Division of Coastal Management, was notified and he did not claim jurisdiction.
Therefore USACE and NC DWQ will have jurisdiction for this'intermittent tributary of
Chiska creek.
The NC DOT requests that this work be authorized under the provisions of
Nationwide Permit No. 14. By copy of this letter, the NC DOT also requests that the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality issue the appropriate water quality
certification. A check for $200.00 is attached to cover the permit fees.
You will find included with the prior construction notification:
• A map indicating the location of the work
• 2 Plans of the proposed work on 8.5 x 11 inch paper:
• Names and addresses of adjoining property owners

PAYMENT
RECEIVED
SUBJECT: Request for Section 404 Authorization for Anticipated Impacts to Waters
Resulting from Pipe Additions to SR 1257 in Bertie County
The Department of Transportation proposes to place two additional pipes under
SR 1257 (Bertie County) for better drainage. These pipes will be the same size and length
of the present pipe, buried a foot below the substrate for migration purposes, and will
increase the width of the stream from 6 feet across to 25 feet. No wetlands are present on
this site due to too high of elevation, steepness in slope, and an existing bulkhead.
Since Bertie County is a coastal county, Steve Trowell from North Carolina
Division of Coastal Management, was notified and he did not claim jurisdiction.
Therefore USACE and NC DWQ will have jurisdiction for this intermittent tributary of
Chiska creek.
The NC DOT requests that this work be authorized under the provisions of
Nationwide Permit No. 14. By copy of this letter, the NC DOT also requests that the
North Carolina Division of Water Quality issue the appropriate water quality
certification. A check for $200.00 is attached to cover the permit fees.
You will find included with the prior construction notification:
• A map indicating the location of the work
• 2 Plans of the proposed work on 8.5 x 11 inch paper:
• Names and addresses of adjoining property owners
P.O. Box 850, Edenton, NC 27932 - Phone: [phone] Fax: [phone]

Work will begin as soon as the permits are issued. Please call me if you require
additional information.
