Division of Water Quality
The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated received February 21, 2006. After
reviewing your application, we have decided that these impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification
Number 3404 and 3366. This certification corresponds to the Nationwide Permit 14 and Nationwide Permit 33
issued by the Corps of Engineers. This approval is also valid for the Neuse Riparian Buffer Rules (15A NCAC
213.0233). 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 federal permit.
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 fills 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 as well as those listed below.
1. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands shall be placed below the elevation of
the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches, and 20 percent of the culvert
diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48 inches, to allow low flow passage of water and aquatic life.
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 streambeds or banks, adjacent to or
upstream and down stream of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the
equilibrium is being maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to
bedrock or other limiting features encountered during construction, please contact the NC DWQ for guidance on
how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be required.
2. If concrete is used during construction, a dry work area should be maintained to prevent direct contact between
curing concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured concrete should not be discharged to
surface waters due to the potential for elevated pH and possible aquatic life and fish kills.
3. During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in waters of the U.S., or
protected riparian buffers.
4. The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream above and below the crossing should not be modified.
Disturbed floodplains and streams should be restored to natural geomorphic conditions.
5. The use of rip-rap above the high water mark shall be minimized. Any rip-rap placed for stream stabilization
shall be placed in stream channels in such a manner that it does not impede aquatic life passage.
6. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area. Approved BMP measures from
the most current version of NCDOT Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags, rock berms,
cofferdams and other diversion structures shall be used to prevent excavation in flowing water.
7. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channel in order to minimize
sedimentation and reduce introduction of other pollutants into the stream.
8. 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.

9. No rock, sand or other materials shall be dredged from the stream channel except where authorized by this
certification.
10. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface
waters is prohibited.
11. NCDOT and its authorized agents shall conduct its activities in a manner consistent with State water quality
standards (including any requirements resulting from compliance with §303(d) of the Clean Water Act) and any
other appropriate requirements of State and Federal law. If DWQ determines that such standards or laws are not
being met (including the failure to sustain a designated or achieved use) or that State or federal law is being violated,
or that further conditions are necessary to assure compliance, DWQ may reevaluate and modify this certification.
12. All fill slopes located in jurisdictional wetlands shall be placed at slopes no flatter than 3:1, unless otherwise
authorized by this certification..
13. A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be posted on the construction site at all times. In addition, the
Water Quality Certification and all subsequent modifications, if any, shall be maintained with the Division Engineer
and the on-site project manager.
14. The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary located within the construction corridor approved by this
authorization shall be clearly marked by highly visible fencing prior to any land disturbing activities. Impacts to
areas within the fencing are prohibited unless otherwise authorized by this certification.
15. Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT Division Engineer shall complete and return the enclosed
"Certification of Completion Form" to notify DWQ when all work included in the 401 Certification has been
completed.
16. Native riparian vegetation (ex. list trees and shrubs native to your geographic region) must be reestablished
within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing season following completion of construction.
17. There shall be no excavation from, or waste disposal into, jurisdictional wetlands or waters associated with this
permit without appropriate modification. Should waste or borrow sites be located in wetlands or streams,
compensatory mitigation will be required since that is a direct impact from road construction activities.
18. 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.

19. Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetlands shall be placed below the elevation
of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches, and 20 percent of the culvert
diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48 inches, to allow low flow passage of water and aquatic life.
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 streambeds or banks, adjacent to or
upstream and down stream of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the
equilibrium is being maintained if requested in writing by DWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to
bedrock or other limiting features encountered during construction, please contact the NC DWQ for guidance on
how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be required.
20. If multiple pipes or barrels are required, they should be designed to mimic natural stream cross section as
closely as possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where appropriate. Widening the
stream channel should be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet or outlet end of structures typically
decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life
passage.
21. Riprap should not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner that precludes
aquatic life passage. Bioengineeri4 boulders or structures should be properly designed, sized and installed.
22. For the 38 linear feet of streams being impacted due to site dewatering activities, the site shall be graded to its
preconstruction contours and revegetated with appropriate native species.
23. All stormwater runoff shall be directed as sheetflow through stream buffers at nonerosive velocities, unless
otherwise approved by this certification.
24. All riparian buffers impacted by the placement of temporary fill or clearing activities shall be restored to the
preconstruction contours and revegetated. Maintained buffers shall be permanently revegetated with non-woody
species by the end of the growing season following completion of construction. For the purpose of this condition,
maintained buffer areas are defined as areas within the transportation corridor that will be subject to regular DOT
maintenance activities including mowing. The area with non-maintained buffers shall be permanently revegetated,
with native woody species before the next growing season following completion of construction.
25. Pursuant to NCACI5A 2B .0233(6), sediment and erosion control devices shall not be placed in Zone 1 of any
Neuse Buffer without prior approval by the NCDWQ. At this time, the NCDWQ has approved no sediment and
erosion control devices in Zone 1, outside of the approved project impacts, anywhere on this project. Moreover,
sediment and erosion control devices shall be allowed in Zone 2 of the buffers provided that Zone I is not
compromised and that discharge is released as diffuse flow.
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. If you have any questions, please contact Rob Ridings at 919-733-9817.

6508 Falls of the Neuse Road, Suite 120
Raleiuh. NC 27609
Attention: Mr. Eric Alsmeyer, NCDOT Coordinator
Subject: Secondary road improvements to SR 1624 (Amed Tilley Road) from
SR 1622 to SR 1004 in Durham County. WBS element 5C.032050.
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to upgrade and
pave SR 1624 (Amed Tilley Road) from SR 1622 to SR 1004 in Durham County (Figures
1-5). Total project length is 0.75 miles. Transportation and highway laws of North
Carolina (G.S. 136-44.6, 136-44.7, 136-44.7A, 136-44.8, and 136-44.9) require the
NCDOT to develop annual work programs for construction and maintenance of
secondary roads. These general statutes specifically set forth requirements for annual
construction and paving of existing unpaved roads. Paving of these roads is perfonned in
priority order as established by the NCDOT for each unpaved road within a given county.
This number is based on characteristics of each road, including number of homes,
schools, churches, businesses, industries, recreational facilities, traffic counts, presence of
school bus routes, and value as a thoroughfare. SR 1624 is scheduled to be paved as part
of the Secondary Roads Construction Program.
Impacts to Waters of the United States
Site 1 - Waters of US
Fill in wetlands is anticipated at this site (Figure 3). Upgrading this roadway and the
associated right-of=way clearing will result in 134 ft'` (0.003 ac) of fill in a drainage way
wetland along the ditch line to the north of the roadway (Photograph 3). (See Appendix One
for USACE Wetland Delineation forms/DWQ rating sheets). Please note that no stream
exists at this site. Therefore, no surface water impacts or riparian buffer impacts are proposed
at Site L

03020201 1 (Figure 4) in the Neuse River Basin. The existing structure that conveys the
creek is a 36-inch concrete pipe that is 42 feet long (see Photographs 1 and 2). The pipe
will be replaced with a 72-inch rcp that is 60 feet long pipe with head walls. Permanent
impacts at the site associated with the longer pipe include a total of 13 linear feet of
existing channel impacted plus 20 feet of rip rap armoring surrounding the ends of the
new pipe. The work zone will be temporarily dewatered for approximately one week.
This will involve the temporary placement of impervious dikes in the creek upstream and
downstream of construction. Once the stream has been dewatered, the replacement pipe
will be installed and the head walls will be constructed. To maintain water flow during
construction, water upstream of construction will be temporarily pumped out and
conveyed around downstream of the construction. Temporary concurrent impacts to the
stream from this activity will result in dewatering 38 linear feet of stream. The materials
used for dewatering will be removed after construction. Fill in wetlands is also anticipated
at this site. Upgrading this roadway and the associated pipe replacement with rip rap
armoring will result in 363 ft-' (0.008 ac) of fill in a fringe wetland along this stream. (See
Appendix One for USACE Wetland Delineation forms/DWQ rating sheets). Please note that
the stream within the project site originates from the out fall pipe from a pond off of the
right-of-way to the north of the roadway. No impacts to this pond are proposed with this
project. The stream then flows into an area flooded by beaver activity. This flooding is
causing water to back up at the outlet of the cross line pipe. In efforts to obtain positive
flow, debris will be removed from the portion of the stream within the project limits. No
additional stream or wetland impacts are proposed with this clean-out activity.
Site 3 - Waters of US
Fill in wetlands is anticipated at this site (Figure 5). Upgrading this roadway and the
associated right-of=way clearing will result in 945 ft` (0.022 ac) of fill in a drainage way
wetland along the ditch line to the north and the south of the roadway (Photograph 4). (See
Appendix One for USACE Wetland Delineation forms/DWQ rating sheets). Please note that
no stream exists at this site. Therefore, no surface water impacts or riparian buffer impacts
are proposed at Site 3.
Riparian Buffer Impacts
Site 1 - Buffers
At this site, there is an intermittent stream depicted on the Soil Survey of Durham County
(USDA-SCS, 1971) (Figure 2). Field reviews reveal that there is actually no stream at
Site 1. Therefore, no riparian buffer impacts are proposed. There is however a drainage
way wetland at this site. Wetland impacts for Site 1 are detailed above.
Site 2 - Buffers
The construction at this site involves a road crossing of a stream that is subject to the
Neuse Riparian Buffer Rule. The unnamed intermittent tributary to the Neuse River at
Site 2 is depicted on the most recent version of the Lake Michie (1977/1990) topographic
quadrangle (Figure 1) as well as on the Soil Survey of Durham County (USDA-SCS,
1971) (Figure 2). The NCDOT proposes to install temporary erosion and sediment
control devices in Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the riparian buffer. Specifically, the NCDOT
will place of temporary rock silt check dam (Type B) and temporary silt fence in Zone 1,
with temporary silt basin (Type B) and temporary silt fence in Zone 2. The temporary
3
structures will be removed once the vegetation has been established and then seeded.
Please note that the placement of these structures are within the 60 right-of-wav
width and their associated impacts are included within the project total of 1,910 ft
in Zone I and 718 ft` in Zone 2 (totalinp, 38 linear feet of riparian buffer impacts
outside the Existinp, Transportation Facility). Based on the impacts to the riparian
butter at this site, this crossing is EXEMPT.
Site 3 - Buffers
At this site, there is an intermittent stream depicted on the Soil Survey of Durham County
(USDA-SCS, 1971) (Figure 2). Field reviews reveal that there is actually no stream at
Site 3. Therefore, no riparian buffer impacts are proposed. There is however a drainage
way wetland at this site. Wetland impacts for Site 3 are detailed above.
Waters of the U.S./Riparian Buffer Mitigation
Avoidance: All wetlands and surface waters not affected by the project will be protected
from unnecessary encroachment. No staging of construction equipment or storage of
construction supplies will be allowed in wetlands or near surface waters.
Minimization: The side slopes have been steepened to the extent possible at jurisdictional
sites. Strict enforcement of sedimentation and erosion control Best Management Practices
for the protection of wetlands and surface waters will be enforced during project
construction. Continued coordination will occur with maintenance forces and the
Environmental Officer during construction to minimize impacts to these sites.
Compensatory Mitigation: All compensatory mitigation requirements will be left to the
discretion of the regulatory review agencies.
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 ESA. As of February 9, 2006, there are three federally protected species
listed for Durham County. They include bald eagle (Haliaeetirs leucocephalus), smooth
coneflower (Echinacea laevigata), and Michaux's sumac (Rhos michauxii). Although
Site 2 is adjacent to a pond, it is not suitable of supporting foraging habitat for the bald
eagle. The roadway shoulders along Amed Tilley Road are regularly maintained from the
gravel to the woods line, eliminating the possibility for smooth coneflower or Michaux's
sumac to exist in this area. Additionally, a review of the Natural Heritage Program
database (last updated January 2006) revealed no occurrences of protected species within
the project area. Therefore, based on lack of suitable habitat observed during the 07/21/04
site visit and the NHP database review, biological conclusions of No Effect have been
rendered for each of these species.
Historical Compliance
This project has been screened by all pertinent parties to ensure historic compliance [see
Appendix Two for concurrence letters from the State Historic Preservation Office
(SHPO) and the Durham Historic Preservation Commission].

Summary
NCDOT proposes to upgrade and pave SR 1624 (Amed Tilley Road) in Durham County.
Impacts are proposed to Waters of the United States are proposed: 18 feet of surface
water till, 20 ft of rip rap armoring for bank stabilization, 38 ft of concurrent temporary
dewatering, and 0.033 ac of till in wetlands. Additionally impacts to the riparian buffers
within the Neuse River Basin are proposed at Site 2. Based on the impacts to 38 linear
feet of riparian butter at this site, this crossing is EXEMPT.
Application is hereby made for a Department of the Army Section 404 Nationwide
Permit (NWP) 14, NWP 33, and NCDENR-DWQ Section 401 Water Quality
Certification (WQC) No. 3404 and WQC No. 3366 for above-described activities. An
automated payment procedure has been implemented between the NCDOT and
NCDWQ. This procedure will enable the Division to apply for the 401 WQC without
submitting a check for this permit application. This procedure will provide payment to
the NCDWQ by charging the permit application fee of $200.00 directly to the appropriate
NCDOT WBS element 5C.032050. A pre-construction notification is attached with this
request. If you have any questions or need additional information, please contact Ms.
Heather Montague at [phone].

construction. Strict enforcement of Best Management Practices for the protection of wetlands
and surface waters will be enforced during construction. Only the smallest amount of till
necessary to complete the project will be placed in waters of the United States or riparian
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 January 15, 2002, 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
Page 5 of 8
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 NCEEP 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.

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.
All compensatory mitigation requirements will be left to the discretion of the regulatory
review agencies.
2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program (NCEEP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCEEP at
[phone] to determine availability, and written approval from the NCEEP indicating
