Any violations of this condition including turbidity and failed silt fences MUST be reported
to the Wilmington Regional Office immediately at 910.796.7215.
5. Concrete.
If concrete is used during the construction, then all necessary measures shall be taken to prevent
direct contact between uncured or curing concrete and waters of the State. Water that
inadvertently contacts uncured concrete shall be NOT be discharged to surface waters due to the
potential for elevated pH and possible aquatic life /fish kills.
Road Crossings:
6. Culvert Installation
All work in or adjacent to stream waters or wetlands shall be conducted in a dry work area.
Approved BMP measures from the most current version of NCDOT Construction and
Maintenance Activities manual
(hltp://www.ncdot.org/doh/operations/BMP manual/download/BMP Manual.Pdfl such as
sandbags, rock berms, cofferdams and other diversion structures shall be used to prevent
excavation in flowing water or wetlands.
Placement of culverts in streams and wetlands /waters must be placed below the elevation of the
streambed /wetland by one foot for all culverts with a diameter greater than 48 inches, and 20
percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having less than or equal to 48 inches, to allow low
flow passage of water and aquatic life.
Installation of culverts in wetlands must ensure continuity of water movements and be designed
to adequately accommodate high water or flood conditions. Additionally, when roadways,
causeways or other fill projects are constructed across FEMA - designated floodways or wetlands,
openings such as culverts or bridges must be provided to maintain the natural hydrology of the
system as well as prevent constriction of the floodway that may result in the destabilization of
streams or wetlands.
Any rip -rap required for proper culvert instal lation/placement shall be restricted to the area
directly impacted by the approved construction activity. All rip -rap shall be buried or "keyed in"
such that the original wetland/stream is maintained and not de- stabilized.
Appropriately sized sills/baffle will be required in culverts across streams /wetlands to prevent
scouring;
7. Construction Stormwater Permit NCG010000
Upon the approval of an Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan issued by the Division of Land
Resources (DLR) or a DLR delegated local erosion and sedimentation control program, an
NPDES General stormwater permit (NCGO 10000) administered by DWQ is automatically issued
to the project. This General Permit allows stormwater to be discharged during land disturbing
construction activities as stipulated by conditions in the permit. If your project is covered by this
permit [applicable to construction projects that disturb one (1) or more acres], full compliance
with permit conditions including the sedimentation control plan, self - monitoring, record keeping
and reporting requirements are required. A copy of this permit and monitoring report forms may
be found at http: // portal .ncdenr.or,/q/ws/su/npdessw #tab -w along with other information.

8. Temporary Fills /Impacts
All temporary fill and culverts shall be removed and the impacted area returned to the original
grade after construction is complete or within 2 months of the establishment of the crossing or the
completion of the phase of the project the impact occurred, whichever is sooner, and the various
sites shall be stabilized with natural woody vegetation (except for the maintenance areas of
permanent utility crossings) and restored to prevent erosion., If the temporary impacts /crossings
are not completely removed and restored as described above within the specified time above,
additional written approval from this Office must be obtained to modify this condition.
These sites will need to be monitored quarterly for at least two years with photo
documentation and any remediation that may be necessary. The monitoring may be
extended up to another 3 years, if the restoration sites have not adequately recovered.
9. Construction Plans
Any final construction plans for this proiect must include or reference the application and
plans approved by the DWO under this authorization letter and certification.
10. Continuing Compliance:
