July 1, 2010 Mr. Ian McMillan NC Division of Water Quality 2321 Crabtree Blvd.,54c 2S0 Raleigh, North Carolina 27602 Re: U-4916 Beckford Drive Widening Nationwide Permit # 14 Application Submittal Vance County, North Carolina Dear Mr. McMillan: IV, JUL,-'S 2010 kttp S10tt1N? 100536 On behalf of the City of Henderson, Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. is submitting the enclosed joint 404/401 Preconstruction Notification Application for authorization to construct the above referenced project under Nationwide Permit Number 14 and General 401 Water Quality Certification Number 3820. The following information is included as part of this application submittal: • Project Summary Sheet • Pre-Construction Notification Form • Agent Authorization Form • NCDWQ check for $240 permit application fee • Project Vicinity/USGS Topographic Map (Figure 1) • Aerial Photograph (Figure 2) • Soils Map (Figure 3) • Project Plans (Figures 4-8) • SHPO/Office of Archaeology Scoping Response Letters • Stormwater Management Plan • Stream Delineation Survey • Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination request • NCDWQ Stream Classification Forms • USACE Stream Quality Assessment Forms • 11 x 17 Roadway Plans (I, 4, 5, and 6) Beckford Drive is currently a two-lane roadway through the project corridor with three-lane curb and gutter roadway sections at each terminus. This project proposes to widen Beckford Drive to three lanes (two travel lanes and a two-way left-turn lane) with curb and gutter, storm drainage, and sidewalks on both sides. The project widens Beckford Drive to a uniform three-lane road between Harrison Street and North Park Drive and will alleviate traffic congestion. E_" Kimley-Hom and Associates, Inc. Through a municipal agreement the City of Henderson is administering the construction of Beckford Drive Widening. The project is funded by the City and federal funds administered by NCDOT. As part of the roadway widening, an existing 72-inch pipe at a tributary to Nutbush Creek will be re with a 9'x 6' reinforced concrete box culvert (buried I foot), resulting in 59 linear feet of perennial stream impact (including outlet protection). In addition, a 24" reinforced concrete pipe at a second tributary to Nutbush Creek will be extended resulting in 21 linear feet of jurisdictional (non-mitigatable) streamimpact. The project is located within the Roanoke River basin, therefore no regulated riparian buffer impacts occur. Due to the proposed project resulting in less than 150 linear feet of stream impact, no mitigation for this project is anticipated. NCDOT's Division Environmental Department (Chris Murray) and Hydraulics Unit (Randy Boyd) reviewed and provided comments on the plans. We revised the plan to address their comments and they have approved the attached plan. The stream delineation survey was prepared by a licensed surveyor and reviewed in the field by KHA. Field verification of the jurisdictional features within the project corridor was conducted on April 6, 2010 by the USACE (Eric Alsmeyer) and DWQ (Rob Ridings).

Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts in designing project. All practical measures have been taken to avoid and minimize impacts to the streams. Topographic constraints have limited the locations for some impacts. Beckford Drive is being widened symmetrically about the existing road to help stay within the existing 80' right-of-way. 1b. Specifically describe measures taken to avoid or minimize the proposed impacts through construction techniques. The project is utilizing the existing pavement section and widening symetrically. The side slopes are at a maximum 2:1 to minimize stream impacts. Erosion control measures will be installed during construction to help reduce the impact of sediment laden water washing into receiving waters. Measures will include skimmer basins, a stilling basin, check dams, rock inlet protection, temporary ditch liners, and silt fencing. 2.

Flood Zone Designation (Corps Requirement) 8a. Will this project occur in a FEMA-designated 100-year floodplain? N Yes ? No 8b. If yes, explain how project meets FEMA requirements: Due to replacing the existing 72" CMP with a 9'x 6' RCBC (buried ' 1 ) the 100 year water surface elevations lowered a maximum of 0.42'. The model also had to be updated to include an 83" x 57" elliptical CMP immediately upstream of the Beckford Drive crossing at a private driveway. Due to these changes a Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) will be required for FEMA approval. 8c. What source(s) did you use to make the floodplain determination? Flood Insurance Study (FIS) number 37181CV000A and on Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) number 3720196400J (effective date April 16, 2007). Effective model provided by NC Floodplain Mapping.

CRSHPO Comments: STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN TIP No. U-4916 (Beckford Drive) Vance County 05/13/2010 Hydraulics Project Manager: Dan Robinson, P.E. (Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.), Marshall Clawson, P.E. (NCDOT Hydraulics Unit) ROADWAY DESCRIP'T'ION The project U-4916 consists of widening Beckford Drive (SR 1165) in Vance County to three lanes with curb and gutter, storm drainage and sidewalks on both sides from Harrison Street to North Park Drive. The total project length is 0.6 miles. The project will include constructing a new 136 feet long 9' x 6' Reinforced Concrete Box Culvert (RCBC, buried I') to replace the existing 72" CMP over Nutbush Creek. It will also include extending an existing 24" RCP at an Unnamed Tributary to Nutbush Creek. The project creates impacts to Nutbush Creek and an Unnamed Tributary to Nutbush Creek, which are located in the Roanoke River Basin. The project drainage systems consist of catch basins/grated inlets with associated pipe system, grassed swales, preformed scour holes, and rip rap outlet protection at a pipe outlets. Jurisdictional Streams: Nutbush Creek Unnamed Tributary to Nutbush Creek ENVIRONMENTAL DESCRIPTION The project is located within the Roanoke River Basin in Vance County, which is not a CAMA county. Nutbush Creek is classified as Class C. There are no wetlands that will be impacted with this project. BEST MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND MAJOR STRUCTURES The primary goal of Best Management Practices (BMPs) is to prevent degradation of the state's surface waters by the location, construction and operation of the highway system. The BMPs are activities, practices and procedures taken to prevent or reduce stormwater pollution. The BMP measures used on this project to reduce stormwater impacts include: • Preformed scour holes at the drainage system outlets (Sta. 27+24 RT, 28+26 RT and 29+74 RT) • Rip rap outlet protection at pipe outlets. • Grassed swales. • Retaining existing 24" CMP Riser Barrel Structure at Sta. 13+65 LT. This structure is serving as a detention basin for offsite drainage. ATTACHMENT PRELIMINARY JURISDICTIONAL DETERMINATION FORM BACKGROUND INFORMATION A.

Office (Desk) Determination. Date: ® Field Determination. Date(s): April 6, 2010 1 1. The Corps of Engineers believes that there may be jurisdictional waters of the United States on the subject site, and the permit applicant or other affected party who requested this preliminary JD is hereby advised of his or her option to request and obtain an approved jurisdictional determination (JD) for that site. Nevertheless, the permit applicant or other person who requested this preliminary JD has declined to exercise the option to obtain an approved JD in this instance and at this time. 2. In any circumstance where a permit applicant obtains an individual permit, or a Nationwide General Permit (NWP) or other general permit verification requiring "pre-construction notification" (PCN), or requests verification for a non-reporting NWP or other general permit, and the permit applicant has not requested an approved JD for the activity, the permit applicant is hereby made aware of the following: (1) the permit applicant has elected to seek a permit authorization based on a preliminary JD, which does not make an official determination of jurisdictional waters; (2) that the applicant has the option to request an approved JD before accepting the terms and conditions of the permit authorization, and that basing a permit authorization on an approved JD could possibly result in less compensatory mitigation being required or different special conditions; (3) that the applicant has the right to request an individual permit rather than accepting the terms and conditions of the NWP or other general permit authorization; (4) that the applicant can accept a permit authorization and thereby agree to comply with all the terms and conditions of that permit, including whatever mitigation requirements the Corps has determined to be necessary; (5) that undertaking any activity in reliance upon the subject permit authorization without requesting an approved JD constitutes the applicant's acceptance of the use of the preliminary JD, but that either form of JD will be processed as soon as is practicable; (6) accepting a permit authorization (e.g., signing a proffered individual permit) or undertaking any activity in reliance on any form of Corps permit authorization based on a preliminary JD constitutes agreement that all wetlands and other water bodies on the site affected in any way by that activity are jurisdictional waters of the United States, and precludes any challenge to such jurisdiction in any administrative or judicial compliance or enforcement action, or in any administrative appeal or in any Federal court; and (7) whether the applicant elects to use either an approved JD or a preliminary JD, that JD will be processed as soon as is practicable. Further, an approved JD, a proffered individual permit (and all terms and conditions contained therein), or individual permit denial can be administratively appealed pursuant to 33 C.F.R. Part 331, and that in any administrative appeal, jurisdictional issues can be raised (see 33 C.F.R. 331.5(a)(2)). If, during that administrative appeal, it becomes necessary to make an official determination whether CWA jurisdiction exists over a site, or to provide an official delineation of jurisdictional waters on the site, the Corps will provide an approved JD to accomplish that result, as soon as is practicable. 2 This preliminary JD finds that there "maybe"waters of the United States on the subject project site, and identifies all aquatic features on the site that could be affected by the proposed activity, based on the following information: SUPPORTING DATA.

Assign points to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality. / Total Score (from reverse): Comments: Evaluator's Signature Vate v This channel evaluatio orm is intended to be used only as a guide to assist landowners a d nvironmental professionals in gathering the data required by the United States Army Corps of Engineers to make a preliminary assessment of stream quality.

Channel sinuosity: -Straight ?Occasional bends -Frequent meander -Very sinuous -Braided channel Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points to each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a characteristic cannot be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section. Where there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach. The total score assigned to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality. Evaluator's Signature Date This channel evaluatio m is intended to be used only as a guide to assist landowners an a ironmental professionals in gathering the data required by the United States Army Corps of Engineers to make a preliminary assessment of stream quality. The total score resulting from the completion of this form is subject to USACE approval and does not imply a particular mitigation ratio or requirement. Form subject to change - version 06/03.
