Total 80
The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated received September 29, 2006.
After reviewing your application, we have decided that these impacts are covered by General Water
Quality Certification Number 3404. This certification corresponds to the Nationwide Permit 14 issued by
the Corps of Engineers. 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.
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.

Mr. Johnson
October 25, 2006
Conditions of Certification:
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 Normal 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 the introduction of other pollutants into the stream.
8. Heavy equipment may be operated within the stream channels however, its usage shall be
minimized.
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. No rock, sand or other materials shall be dredged from the stream channel except where
authorized by this certification.
11. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or
adjacent to surface waters is prohibited.
Mr. Johnson
October 25, 2006
12. The permittee 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.
13. All fill slopes located in jurisdictional wetlands shall be placed at slopes no flatter than 3:1, unless
otherwise authorized by this certification..
14. 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.
15. 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.
16. 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.
17. 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.
18. 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. 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.
Mr. Johnson
October 25, 2006
d. The 'reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the reclamation in
accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
19. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters unless otherwise
approved by this Certification. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands
and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored upon completion
of the project.
20. 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.
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. 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
Brian Wrenn at 919-733-5715.

Mr. Ridings:
>- The North Carolina Department of Transportation, Highway Division 8 is requesting a 401 Water Quality
Certification in association with Nationwide Permit Number 14, for project # 8C.053014 on SR 1504 (Cletus Hall
Rd.) in Lee County. The proposed project will replace two existing crossing pipes as follows:
Site 1- Replace existing 1 lines of 36" x 40' RCP with 1 line of 36"x 60' CMP.
Site 2- Replace existing 2 lines of 36" x 40' RCP with 1 line of 36"x 60' CMP.
The project includes 20'of class B rip-rap installed at each site for armoring and bank stabilization.
These pipes are being replaced in preparation for a scheduled paving project.
The total percentage of impervious surface within the project area will remain at less than 30%.
All erosion control devices will be appropriate to the location and in compliance with the current version of the
NCDOT Best Management Practices Manual.
The project is outside of the Critical Habitat area for the Cape Fear Shiner. There were no other threatened or
endangered species observed within the project area during the required minimum criteria check. There are no
Wetland impacts associated with this project. The project is located on an unnamed tributary of Hughes Creek, a
class WS-IV stream within the Cape Fear River basin.
If dewatering is required at this site, it will be done with the use of movable devices such as sheet metal piles or
concrete barriers. All construction will be done under dry conditions whenever possible. Any detours for this
project will be done off site, using local state roads.
If you require any additional information, please contact me.

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.
Updated 11/1/2005
Page 9 of 12
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
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. eiir. state. nc. u s/ ncwetlands/strm?aide. html.
