Subject: Application for Modification to Individual Section 404-Permit-and 401
Certification for the widening of US 321 from SR 1500 (Blackberry Road) to
US 221 at Blowing Rock; Watauga and Caldwell Counties; State Project No.
6.739001T; NCDOT Division 11; TIP No. R-223 7C, WBS Element No.
34402.2.6 Debit $570.00
Reference: - Individual 404 Permit Modification (July 24, 2012) and 401 Water Quality
Certification Modification (July 10, 2012)
- Individual 404 Permit (May 26, 2011) (Action ID: SAW- 2002 - 31262) and 401
Certification (March 9, 2011) (NCDWQ Project No. 20100752)
Dear Mr. Williams:
This Modification request is being submitted due to the need for construction revisions at Site
XII. The previous modification (authorized in 404 Pen-nit Modification dated July 24, 2012 and
401 WQC Modification dated July 10, 2012) involved putting a "dog leg" in the pipe alignment.
This current modification involves an alignment of the 84 -inch pipe that more closely follows the
original alignment and was determined by the contractor to be a better option. The additional
stream and wetland impacts are incurred from the need to construct a bore pit for the installation
of the 84 -inch pipe. This modification application package consists of the cover letter, a revised
EEP acceptance letter, revised Permit Sheets (including a revised Wetland Permit Impact
Summary sheet that includes the modified impacts for Site XII), and the associated roadway plan
sheet.
Jurisdictional Impacts at Site XII
The currently permitted impacts are:
® Permanent stream impacts: 45 If
o Temporary stream impacts: 21 if or <0.01 ac
® Temporary wetland impact: <0.01 ac

0 Permanent wetland impact: 0.02 ac (increase of 0.02 �ac)
0 Temporary wetland impact: 0.00 ac (removal of <0.01 ac)

These impacts and associated mitigation needs were not projected by the NCDOT in the 2014 impact

this project located in New 05050001 and Yadkin 03040101 as required by the 404 and 401 permits that
were issued in 2011 and 2012, as shown in the below table (in mitigation credits):
