Dear Mr. Pettyjohn:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact 120
linear feet of Boone Creek in order to stabilize the stream bank to stop roadbed erosion on SR 1163
(Faculty St) in Watauga County. The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application
dated April 14, 2004 (received April 22, 2004).
After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality
Certification No. 3399, corresponding to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit Number
13. 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 Division of Water Quality (Division) and
submit a new application. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this approval
letter and certifications, and is thereby responsible for complying with all the conditions. If total wetland
fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, or if 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 and any additional conditions listed below.
Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications
governing the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best
Management Practices in order to protect surface waters standards:
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed, installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina
Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion control
measures must be such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in the most
recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices
shall be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects,
including contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the project.

c. For borrow pit sites, the erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina
Surface Mining Manual.
d. The reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the reclamation in
accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
2. No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas beyond the
footprint of the impacts depicted in the Preconstruction Notice Application. All construction
activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of sediment and erosion
control Best Management Practices, shall be performed so that no violations of state water quality
standards, statutes, or rules occur.
3. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the maximum
extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is
unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within six months of the date that
the Division of Land Resources has released the project.
4. Stormwater should be directed to vegetated buffer areas, grass lined ditches or other means
appropriate to the site for the purpose of pre-treating stormwater runoff, and must not be routed
directly into streams. Mowing of existing vegetated buffers is strongly discouraged, so that they may
be utilized for stormwater sheet flow.
5. Disturbed floodplains and streams should be restored to natural geomorphic conditions.
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. Any rip-rap used must not
interfere with. aquatic life passage during low flow conditions.
7. If concrete is used, work must be accomplished so the wet concrete does not contact.the stream water.
This will lessen the change of altering the stream's water chemistry and causing a fish kill.
8. Heavy equipment must be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channel in order to
minimize sedimentation and reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into the stream.
9. 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.
10. 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.
11. All work shall be performed during low flow conditions.
12. 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, which 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.

Dear Mr. Thomas:
The purpose of this letter is to notify you of the fact that a 120 foot section of Boone Creek (C, Tr, +), which runs
along SR 1163 (Faculty Street) in Watauga County is eroding the roadbed and creating a hazard (see Site Vicinity
Map and Photos). As a result, the NC Department of Transportation is planning to stabilize the bank of a 120'
section using large stone. Therefore, we are requesting that you respond to the attached Pre-Construction
Notification Form (PCN) and confirm that the proposed activity is permitted under the Nationwide Permitting
system.

This project area was surveyed for the presence of threatened and endangered species on February 18, 2004. No
federally protected species or critical habitat was identified.
The NCDOT Historical Architecture Section has not reviewed this project. If necessary, historic compliance work
will be scheduled and concurrence with State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) will be obtained.
The attached construction plan illustrates that the proposed environmental impacts have been minimized to the
maximum practical extent allowed by roadway safety standards. By implementing the NC-DOT Best Management
Practices (BMP's) during construction, the potential impacts associated with adverse weather will also be
minimized. Furthermore, the completed project will certainly reduce sedimentation currently caused by road
roadbed erosion.
Seven (7) copies of this letter and PCN have been forwarded to Cynthia Van Der Wiele of the NC DENR, Division
of Water Quality for her review, and one (1) copy has been forwarded to Ron Linville of the NC Wildlife Resource
Commission. It is requested that their responses be mailed to our offices concurrently.

VII. 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.
The existing roadbed/steam bank must be stabilized to ensure public safety. By utilizing
the erosion control measures as shown in the attached drawings, adverse impacts to streams in
the area will be minimized.
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.
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/strmaide.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.

2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at httn://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wm/index.htm. If
