Director > Division of Water Quality O March 24, 2003 Guilford County DWQ Project No. 030254 SR 2856 (Three Loy Road) APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions Mr. J.M. Mills, P.E., Division Engineer NCDOT Division 7 P.O. Box 14996 Greensboro, NC 27415 Dear Mr. Mills: You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to permanently impact 38 linear feet and incur 30 linear feet of temporary impacts to an unnamed tributary to Reedy Creek in order to upgrade SR 2856 (Three Loy Road) in Guilford County. The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated January 7, 2003 (received March 3, 2003). After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Nos. 3366 and 3375 corresponding to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit Numbers 33 and 14. 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 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, in writing, and send us 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 conditions. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, or if stream impacts exceed 150 linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 211.0506 (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. 1. Mowing of existing vegetated buffers is strongly discouraged, so that they may be utilized for storm water sheet flow. 2. All work shall be performed during low flow (below bankfull) conditions. 3. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials. 4. Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing season following completion of construction. 5. The pipe required for this project shall be installed in such a manner that the original stream profile is not altered (i.e. the depth of the channel must not be reduced by a widening of the streambed). Existing stream dimensions (including the pattern and profile) are to be maintained above and below locations of the culvert. The culvert shall be designed and installed to allow for fish and other wildlife movement as well as prevent headcuttin2 of the streams. North Carolina Division of Water Quality, 401 Wetlands Certification Unit, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1650 (Mailing Address) 2321 Crabtree Blvd., Raleigh, NC 27604-2260 (Location) 919-733-1786 (phone), 919-733-6893 (fax), hftp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/ 6. Use of rip-rap for bank stabilization is to be minimized; rather, native vegetation is to be planted when practical. If rip-rap is necessary, it must be limited to the stream bank below the high water mark, and vegetation must be used for stabilization above high water. Rip rap shall not be placed in the stream bottom. 7. The presence of equipment in the channels must be minimized. Under no circumstances must rock, sand or other materials be dredged from the wetted stream channel under authorization of this permit, except in the immediate vicinity of the culverts. 8. Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certificate of Completion" form to notify NCDWQ 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 NC 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, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. 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.

Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization) Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts. Pine replacement activities are necessarv to increase travel lane and shoulder width to current construction standards. Impacts will be minimized by strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the protection of wetland and surface waters, restrictions against the staging of equipment in or adjacent to waters of the US, and coordination (including a pre-construction meeting) with the Division Environmental Officer. VIII. Mitigation DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial streams. Page 5 of 8 USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar functions and values, preferable in the same watershed. If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.html. 1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet) of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view, preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach a separate sheet if more space is needed. A finding of insignificant impact is anticipated; therefore, a mitigation plan is not provided. Cumulative impacts are less than 150 feet. The maximum amount of impact to a single stream is 38' linear feet. No Outstanding Resource Waters, federally protected species or their habitats, or essential fishery habitats occur in the project area. The project is not located in a High Quality Water. 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at (919) 733-5208 to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm.

Construction is anticipated to take 2 weeks. 1. Install a rock silt dam downstream of the work area to prevent incidental sediment loss. 2. Install ABC aggregateor a less intrusive dewatering device to allow dewatering of the work area. 3. Install pumps to divert flow around the work area. 4. Place a temporary extension at one end of the existing pipe to allow a travel lane shift. 5. Place a temporary detour over the temporary extension. 6. Opposite the detour, remove existing RC pipe to at least the centerline of the roadway. 7. Excavate to sufficient depth to allow 20% burial of the pipe, place base stone, and sections of 30' long 24" CM pipe. 8. Backfill the new section of pipe and place rip rap only as needed. 9. Place the temporary detour over the new sections of pipe. 10. Remove remaining sections of pipe. 11. Excavate to sufficient depth to allow 20% burial of the pipe, place base stone, and sections of 30' long 24" CM pipe. 12. Backfill the new section of pipe and place rip rap only as needed. 13. Remove the dewatering device and restore the natural stream contours. 14. Place final roadway in desired location. 15. Notify landscape department for final seeding. 16. Silt fences to be placed as site conditions require. 17. A 10' X 15' dirt bag will be used to remove excess water in the hole where the new pipe is being replaced. 18. Site conditions and weather may alter these plans. 19. A method less intrusive than a pump around system may not be utilized if site conditions allow. r', t ' \r I U - .11 -1) 1 jht (C) 1997, ` lY l r -? t s ' e° CSC P m 4 -owl Ir View Immediately Downstream View Immediately upstream STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION MICHAEL F.
