Subject: Proposed improvements to NC 109 in Davidson and Forsyth Counties, Federal Aid number STP-109 (I).
State Project No. 34468.1.4, TIP R-2568C.
Dear Dr. Thorpe:
This letter is in reference to the application dated April 19, 201 I for the proposed improvements to NC 109 in
Davidson and Forsyth Counties. The project is being planned in accordance with the 404/NEPA Merger agreement.
The purpose of the permit application is to solicit public input on the proposed reasonable and feasible alternatives.
At [his time, the selection of a preferred alternative has not occurred. Pursuant [0 15A NCAC 2H .0507 (a), [his
application is not considered complete and does not qualify as the formal application fora 401 Water Quality
Certification. Therefore, our 60-day time limit has not been activated. We look forward to participating in future
team meetings on this project.
If you have any questions, please contact Amy Euliss at [phone].
Sin erely, ~~.
