Subject: 404 and 401 Permit Application Revision/Modification
Action ID No. 2006-32917-345
DW roject No. 060987
SR 1836 -Pot Shoals and Camp Creek Roads -Henderson County
State Project No. 140.045131 (DWQ Minor Permit Fee $200.00)
Dear Mr. Baker:
The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) proposes to widen,
grade, drain and pave SR 1836 in Henderson County. The original permit applications
dated June 19, 2006 included twenty-two permitted sites with pipe extensions totaling
302 linear feet. Due to a grade change at Site #10, Station 61 +70, the original length
was inadequate. NCDOT proposes to install an additional 20 linear feet of 24-inch
CMP to gain enough length to stabilize the fill slope.
I have enclosed a revised PCN application (impact table), topographical map and
cross-sectional drawing for the culvert installation (Site 10). The new culvert will remain
perched, as is the existing culvert.
Impacts to Waters of the United States
In order to construct the project in accordance with our current secondary road
standards, it will be necessary to impact waters of the United States in the Broad River
Basin. Specifically, NCDOT is requesting to add 20 linear feet of culvert in an unnamed
tributary to Green River (DWQ Class: B, Tr). Listed below is a revised summary of the
proposed impacts.

Permits Requested
Also by copy of this letter, I am requesting authorization to proceed under
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act from the Division of Water Quality. In addition, I
am asking Mr. McHenry and Mr. Ed Ingle, Roadside Environmental Field Operations
Engineer, to comment directly to me concerning this permit request.

Your earliest consideration for this request would be greatly appreciated. If you
have any questions or need additional information, please contact Mrs. Lori Jones or
me at [phone].

* List each impact separately and identify temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: culverts and associated rip-rap,
dams (separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding), relocation (include linear feet before and after, and net loss/gain),
stabilization activities (cement wall, rip-rap, crib wall, gabions, etc.), excavation, ditching/straightening, etc. If stream relocation is
proposed, plans and profiles showing the linear footprint for both the original and relocated streams must be included.
** Stream names can be found on USGS topographic maps. If a stream has no name, list as UT (unnamed tributary) to the nearest
downstream named stream into which it flows. USGS maps are available through the USGS at 1-800-358-9616, or online at
www.us~s.QOV. Several Internet sites also allow direct download and printing of USGS maps (e.g., www.topozone.a>m,
www.m~guest.com, etc.).
Cumulative impacts (linear distance in feet) to all streams on site: 322 Linear Feet
