B. Setzer, P.E. Division Engineer FEB 2 4 2005 N C Department of Transportation 253 Webster Road ??WATER QUALITY Sylva, North Carolina 28779 ORMWATERBRAto Dear Mr. Setzer: You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact 80 linear feet of Lyday Creek (installation of 80 linear feet of rip rap for stream bank stabilization under bridge and temporary impacts of 70 linear feet for removal of the existing bridge end bents) in order to construct a new bridge on NCSR 1504 in Transylvania County. The project must be constructed in accordance with the application dated January 20, 2005 (received January 25, 2005), including the environmental commitments made in the application letter. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Nos. 3399 and 3366, corresponding to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Nationwide Permit Numbers 13 and 31. In addition, you must 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 DWQ in writing 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 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 be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below. 1. 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.

February 21, 2005 Page Two 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 Quality has released the project. 4. Adequate sedimentation and erosion control measures must be maintained on the project site to minimize sediment transport to downstream aquatic resources. Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 15 days of ground disturbing activities to provide long-term erosion control. Erosion control matting should be used in conjunction with appropriate seeding on disturbed soils in steep slope and riparian areas. Matting should be secured in place with staples, stakes or, wherever possible, live stakes and native trees. Riparian vegetation must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing season following completion of construction. 5. In-stream construction work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are prohibited during the trout- spawning season of October 15 through April 15, to avoid adverse effects of sedimentation on sensitive egg and fry stages of trout in downstream waters. 6. Stormwater shall 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 diffuse flow. 7. Removal of vegetation at the stream crossing and adjacent to streams should be minimized. Native trees and shrubs (e.g. Rhododendron, dog hobble, willows, alders, sycamores, dogwoods, black walnut and red maple) should be planted along the streambank to reestablish the riparian zone and to provide long-term erosion control in the vicinity of the new bridge. 8. This certification does not allow causeways or temporary work structures to be placed in the stream. 9. Rock should not be placed in the stream channel in a manner that constricts stream flow or that will impede aquatic life movement during low flow conditions. Riprap placed for bank stabilization or inlet or outlet should be limited to the streambank below the high water mark, and vegetation should be used for stabilization above the high water elevation. 10. The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream, above and below the bridge, should not be modified by widening the stream channel or reducing the stream depth. Any over widened areas at the bridge site should be restored and the width/depth ratio typical of reaches upstream and downstream of the site should be maintained through the bridge project. 11. Heavy equipment must be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channel in order to minimize sedimentation and to reduce the likelihood of introducing other pollutants into the stream. 12. 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. 13. Excavation in the stream associated with the new bridge construction and old bridge removal should be conducted in the dry, if possible. Sandbags, cofferdams, flexible pipe or other diversion structures should be used to minimize excavation in flowing water. 14. If concrete is used during bridge installation (e.g., headwalls), 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. 15. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface waters is strictly prohibited. 16. 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 bridge construction. Instream dredging has catastrophic effects on aquatic life, and disturbance of the natural form of the stream channel will likely cause downstream erosion problems, possibly affecting other landowners. 17. This certification does not authorize the discharge of waste rock and dirt into the stream or riparian zone except for permitted areas associated with the bridge construction- Mr. J. J. Setzer, P.E February 21, 2005 Page Three 18. Grading and backfilling should be minimized and tree and shrub growth should be retained where possible to ensure long-term availability of riparian cover for fish and wildlife. Backfill materials should be obtained from upland sites. 19. Discharge of materials into surface waters from demolition of the old bridge should be avoided as much as possible. Any material that reaches surface waters should be removed. 20. All work shall be performed during low flow conditions (below bankfull). 21. Upon completion of the project, the NCDOT shall complete and return the enclosed "Certificate of Completion" form to notify the NCDWQ when all work included in the §401 Certification has been completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form and return it to the Transportation Permitting Unit of the NC Division of Water Quality upon completion of the project. The NCDOT is strongly advised to send in photographs upstream and downstream of each structure to document correct installation. 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. 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 telephone or Mr. Mike Parker of the Asheville Regional Office at 828.296.4500. Sincerely, /-- kZZ____ Alan W. Klimek, P.E.

The bridge was built in 1920 and is rated structurally obsolete. NCDOT would like to let a contract in early Spring 2005 for this bridge replacement project. NCDOT proposes to replace the structure on the same location. The new bridge will be designed to minimize impacts by implementing a longer single span to increase flood plain width under the bridge. The removal of the existing structure shall be performed by sawing and/or non- shattering methods such that debris will not fall into the water. I am attaching a PCN application, site plans with the proposed erosion control and construction limits, photos, as well as, a marked county map and USGS quad map. The Section 106 concurrence letter is also attached due to the age of the existing bridge structure. Bridge No. 195 spans Lyday Creek, which is a tributary to the French Broad River at river mile 187.6. The North Carolina Natural Heritage Database was checked for records of threatened and endangered species. There are no records listed for the Lyday Creek watershed. The Little River, a tributary to the French Broad River 1.3 miles below the project site, supports the federally endangered Appalachian elktoe (Alasmidonta raveneliana). Additionally, the Natural Heritage Database includes a record for the Appalachian elktoe on the main stem French Broad River approximately 2000 feet below the confluence with the Little River. However, this is an Fourteenth Division.Office, 253 Webster Road, Sylva, North Carolina 28779 Telephone. 828 586-2141 . wrWv doh.dot state.nc us Fax - 828 586-4043 Bridge 195 on SR 1504 Page 2 January 20, 2005 error within the Natural Heritage Database and does not represent an actual occurrence of the Appalachian elktoe. Lyday Creek is a relatively small stream and does not provide the appropriate habitat to support the Appalachian elktoe. The bridge will be replaced with another spanning structure and disturbance will be limited to removal of the existing end bents from the streambanks. The new end bents will be constructed further up the streambanks than the existing bents. Sedimentation resulting from the work will be minimal. Non-shattering demolition methods will be used to minimize debris being discharged into Lyday Creek. For these reasons, adverse impacts from this project will be minimal. Therefore, there will be "no effect" to threatened and endangered species. Impacts to Waters of the United States Lyday Creek is considered a perennial stream with a well-defined channel and is shown on the USGS topographic map as a blue line stream. Therefore, we believe that Lyday Creek is under the jurisdictional authority of the US Army Corps of Engineers. In order to construct the project it may be necessary to impact waters of the United States in the French Broad River Basin. Specifically, NCDOT is requesting to place construction machinery adjacent to Lyday Creek (DWQ Class C Tr) in order to remove the old end bents. Listed below is a summary of the proposed impacts.

Jennifer Cathey made site visits to the project areas on June 17 and 18, 2004. These projects have been reviewed for compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act within the permit areas. MA 14007B Bridge No. 194 on SR 1504 over Glade Creek MA14001B Bridge No. 195 on SR 1504 over Lydia Creek, Transylvania County These bridges are located within two miles of each other on SR 1504, Old Hendersonville Road. This two-lane county road runs along the edge of the wide French Broad River plain, and was once the main road linking Hendersonville and Brevard. Numerous houses that were recorded during Deborah Thompson's 1991 architectural survey of Transylvania County line this stretch of road. The bridges were documented, though not Study Listed for the National Register at that time. Both bridges are reinforced concrete slabs with concrete flat panel parapets built in 1920 and 1921. Bridge 195 was the earlier built of the two, and Lichtenstein MAILING ADDRESS: TELEPHONE: 919-715-1500 LOCATION: NC DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION FAX: 919-715-1522 PARKER LINCOLN BUILDING OFFICE OF HUMAN ENVIRONMENT 2728 CAPITAL BOULEVARD, SUITE 168 1583 MAIL SERVICE CENTER WEBSITE: WWW NCDOT.ORG RALEIGH, NC 27604 RALEIGH NC 27699-1583 June 21, 2001 Page 2 Consulting Engineers noted during their 2003 survey that it is one of the earliest bridges of its type. However, the concrete slab and parapet are badly deteriorated and the plaque is missing, rendering it ineligible for the National Register. (Lichtenstein has documented other early and more intact examples of this bridge type.) Bridge 194, a later example of the same bridge type, is not eligible for the National Register. There are no structures eligible for the National Register in the Bridge 194 APE, and it is approximately one-quarter mile distant from the closest property surveyed by Deborah Thompson. Bridge 195 is located approximately one-quarter mile west of the Blythe-Whitmire Farm, which is Study Listed for the National Register. The farm sits atop a ridge on the north side of SR 1504, and is buffered from the project location by the rise in elevation and a post-1950 house lot. Surveyed structures to the west of this bridge are outside of the project's APE. Compliance Agreement: N/A. MA14006B Bridge No. 173 on SR 1556 over Martin Creek, Cherokee County Bridge No. 173, a cored slab bridge on concrete abutments, was built in 1922. It will be replaced with a wider cored slab bridge. This bridge is the same type and approximate age as Bridge No. 172, also on SR 1556. Bridge No. 172 was evaluated by Lichtenstein Consulting Engineers and classified as ineligible for the National Register. Due to its similarity in age, form, and materials to Bridge 172, Bridge No. 173 is here determined as ineligible for the National Register. There are no structures eligible for the National Register in the project APE. Compliance Agreement: N/A. Li IA's f 3 r? v ?VLT7 N .117 S- ? - U i I f Cr) t A,? ? 17r n - iu ?; r- I l "Ag -n e?
