Do not click links or open attachments unless you verify. Send all suspicious email as an attachment to Report Spam. Amy — based on the nature of the proposed work and our review of the general conditions associated with GC 4133, the activity will not require pre -construction written approval. However, if the schedule permits, I typically send a "courtesy' PCN to DWR and USACE whenever work is being conducted in a jurisdictional water. I do try and make it clear that it's only being submitted as a courtesy, rather than for written approval.

Hi Joey, I did receive confirmation that a pre -filing meeting request isn't needed if you will not be submitting a PCN for review / written approval. If you need confirmation, you are always welcome to call or email me for clarification regarding 401 certs / permitting.

Yes just let me know if the pre -filing request isn't needed if we'll just be doing a courtesy submittal. I don't want to bog you down with unnecessary stuff.

Joey, If the total temporary impacts to streams will be 500 feet or less and all Conditions of the attached GC will be met, then written authorization is not required for the project activities you described. I will update the file in LF to include these temporary repairs. If a PCN will not be submitted, I may need you to withdraw your request. I'll be in touch with you about that after I receive clarification.

The work they are now proposing is to repair some sections of the pipe that have become exposed in streambeds. What they will do is fabricate a replacement section of pipe and attach it to the existing pipe via elbows that will allow it to be installed beneath the creek at a lower depth. They will then remove the old exposed pipe segment and restore the streambanks. All will be done in the dry, and any impacts will be temporary. I have checked everything out and it does not meet any of the criteria for PCN — but thought I'd better submit this just in case anything changes with the new certification (I don't think so, based on what I've looked at online). Let me know if you want to look at any of the sites in the field and I'll meet you -j Joey Lawler, PWS <image004jpg> S&ME 2016 Ayrsley Town Blvd., Suite 2-A Charlotte, NC 28273 O: 704.523.4726 M: 704.604,6474 www.smeinc.com Linkedln I Twitter I Facebook From: Annino, Amy M <amy.annino@ncdenr.gov> Sent: Wednesday, February 24, 2021 11:04 AM To: Joey Lawler <JLawler@smeinc.com> Subject: DENC M201 Exposure Repairs This message originated outside of S&ME.
