WATER QUALITY SECTION
Subject: Orange County, Construction of headwall on UT of Booker Creek on Dobbins Drive (SR
1740) in order to decrease future maintenance and improve traffic safety. Project Number 30708
To Whom It May Concern:
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to construct a fifteen foot
headwall (across the stream) with eight foot wingwalls on Dobbins Drive in order to decrease futute
maintenance costs and improve traffic safety. This activity will result in impacts to an Unnamed
Tributary of Booker Creek. The NCDOT anticipates that the headwall construction can be
authorized under Nationwide Permit (NWP) 3 and the dewatering operation can be authorized under
NWP 33. This application is intended as a request for formal written authorization from the USCOE
for NWP 3 and NWP 33. This application is also intended as a courtesy notification to the NC
Division of Water Quality as prescribed under General Water Quality Certificates #3376 and #3366.
FEDERALLY-PROTECTED SPECIES
Plants and animals with federal classifications of Endangered, Threatened, Proposed Endangered
and Proposed Threatened are protected under provisions of Section 7 and Section 9 of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended. According to surveys conducted by the Project
Development and Environmental Analysis branch of the NC Department of Transportation on April
24, 2003, no federally protected species occur in the project area.

Plan will be restored and seeded. Temporary silt screens will be cleaned and
removed following vegetation establishment.
RCP = reinforced concrete pipe; CMP = Corrugated metal pipe; CMPA = Corrugated metal pipe arch; E/C = Erosion
control. *A less intrusive dewatering device may be used in lieu of the one proposed.
MINIMALIZATION INFORMATION
Impacts will be minimized by strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the
protection of surface waters and wetlands, 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.

MITIGATION INFORMATION
Stream mitigation is not anticipated, as the impacts to any individual stream do not exceed 150
linear feet. Total stream impacts from the project are calculated to be 148 linear feet. The project
was purposely designed to impact less than 150 linear feet of streams in order to avoid mitigation
and facilitate expediency in the issuance of permits. Wetland mitigation is not anticipated, as
wetland impacts do not exceed 0.10 acres and there is no occurrence of a unique natural wetland.
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Enclosed please find the Pre-Construction Notification Form and supporting documentation for
the above referenced project. If you have any questions, comments or need additional information
after reviewing this material, please contact Jerry Parker at [phone]. Thank you for your
attention to this matter.
Sincerely,

III. Project Information
Attach a vicinity map clearly showing the location of the property with respect to local
landmarks such as towns, rivers, and roads. Also provide a detailed site plan showing property
boundaries and development plans in relation to surrounding properties. Both the vicinity map
and site plan must include a scale and north arrow. The specific footprints of all buildings,
impervious surfaces, or other facilities must be included. If possible, the maps and plans should
include the appropriate USGS Topographic Quad Map and NRCS Soil Survey with the property
boundaries outlined. Plan drawings, or other maps may be included at the applicant's discretion,
so long as the property is clearly defined. For administrative and distribution purposes, the
USACE requires information to be submitted on sheets no larger than 11 by 17-inch format;
however, DWQ may accept paperwork of any size. DWQ prefers full-size construction
drawings rather than a sequential sheet version of the full-size plans. If full-size plans are
reduced to a small scale such that the final version is illegible, the applicant will be informed that
the project has been placed on hold until decipherable maps are provided.

wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. The applicant must also
provide justification for these impacts in Section VII below. All proposed impacts, permanent
and temporary, must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on an accompanying site
plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) must be shown on a
delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream
