Subject: Revised PreconstructionNotifieation Application for Celebrity Dairy Irrigation
Pond, Chatham County. DWQ #06-0771, USACE Action ID #200620797.
Deaz Mr. MacMillan:
For the sake of clarification, I have included the sequence of events that have occurred to date on
the proposed project. We have had some significant delays due to surveying and resurveying the
locations of the proposed dam and jurisdictional limits.
On May 3, 2006, a Preconstruction Notification for a Nationwide Permit # 40, Agricultural
Activities and the corresponding Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Water Quality Certification
(WQC) # 3364, was submitted to the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) and to the
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) for review. At that time a $275 fee was paid to DWQ for review
of the permit application. On May 8, 2006, an additional $200 was paid to elevate the application
for a Major Permit.
On May 25, 2006, DWQ authorized project under WQC #3364 as DWQ Project # 06-0771 with
848 feet of impacts to an intermittent stream. However, only 149 lineaz feet of fill or discharge in
the stream channel by the construction of the dam was proposed at the time, with the remaining 699
lineaz feet being inundated by the pond, but not filled or impacted.
On May 31, 2006, Mr. Todd Tugwell, (t1SACE Regulatory Field Officer) conducted an on-site
stream assessment and the stream call was re-evaluated and the proposed dam was shifted
approximately 150 feet upstream. This dam was shifted in order to effectively minimize and avoid
impacts to the jurisdictional stream in question. Since the drainage area for the pond is estimated to
be only 200 acres, it is not feasible to move the proposed pond any further upstream, above the
junction of two tributaries, and still be able to fill the pond. Mr. Tugwell advised us at that time to
change the application to request a NWP #39, for Residential, Commercial and Institutional
Activities instead ;,f N~TP #40 for Agricultural Activities. (Shortly thereafter, Mr. Tugwell then
left the USACE for another job.) I have included a revised map with the new dam location shown
and documentation of the stream re-evaluation.
On January 18, 2007, Ms. Cyndi Karoly of DWQ agreed to reissue the 401 Water Quality
Certification for the NWP #39 instead of the original NWP #40. (See attached email.)
We therefore request a WQC #3402 to correspond to the NWP #39 issued by the USACE.

~n Mazch 14, 2007, Mr. Monte Matthews of the Raleigh office of the USACE issued a NWP 39
authorization for Residential, Commercial and Institutional Developments for the subject project,
and the expiration date of the verification was Mazch 18, 2007, due to reissuance of the NWP
program. Since a significant amount of resources had already been invested at that time, the actual
expiration date is one yeaz later, effectively March 18, 2008.
On March 21, 2007, DWQ representative, Ms. Lauren Cobb also visited the site to conduct a
stream determination.
On March 22, 2007, I received documentation of that stream determination from DWQ
representative, hls. Lauren Cobb. According to Ms. Cobb's determination and flag locations,
construction of the proposed dam will result in 149 lineaz feet of fill to a perennial stream, and will
cause the inundation of 490 lineaz feet of perennial stream channel and approximately 1230 Linear
~t of intermittent stream channel. (See attached letter and map.)
Enclosed is the revised Preconstruction Notification (PCN) application package with the attendant
maps and documentation required to re-initiate review of the subject property for issuance of DWQ
Water Quality Certification #3402. The proposed Celebrity Dairy dam project will fill 149 feet of
perennial stream channel for the purpose of constructing the dam, and will inundate approximately
13001ineaz feet of perennial stream channel for an agricultural irrigation pond. We have included
seven paper copies for your review.
Celebrity Dairy Farm and Inn is located in Chatham County, west of Pittsboro, approximately two
miles north of US 64 on SR 1504 (Mt. Vernon-Hickory Church Road). The proposed 14.9 foot tall
dam is located on an unnamed tributary to Dry Creek, which drains to the Haw River in the Cape
Feaz River Basin. The project consists of the construction of an earthen dam and pond on a site that
has current land use of dairy pastures, natural pine and hardwood regeneration, and recently planted
loblolly pine seedlings. The proposed delineations have determined that no wetlands aze logat d a
of approximately 200 acres. Wetlan
within the impact limits of the proposed project.
The dam is needed to water livestock for the-d?~_ry opea'ation, and to irrigate crops. Current wells
for the existing Bed and Breakfast operation and existing dairy operation aze not sufficient for crop
irrigation and livestock needs, or fire protection for the Inn.
Please review the enclosed revised application and contact us if you have any questions or need any
additional information. You may contact Ms Robin Maycock at [phone] or Ms. Ann
Fleming Pfann at (919} 742-5176. We look forward to your response.

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 lineaz feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but aze not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.

Dear Cyndi:
I have a question for you on DWQ Project # 06-0771, Celebrity Dairy Pond.
I applied for a NW 40 /GC 3364 on May 19, 2006, for Agricultural Activities, for a
pond for ag use. I paid $275.
On May 25, DWQ issued a 401, without site review.
On May 31, Todd Tugwell visited the site and stated that Z should have applied for a
NW 39/GC 3362 - for a pond, and that for a NW 39 with less than 150 if of impact, no
wetland impacts and no buffers, DWQ should not have charged a fee, and should have
recieved a courtesy copy only. We adjusted the location of the proposed dam to
minimize and avoid important stream impacts about 150 feet upstream.
I would like to reapply for a NW 39 and GC 3362, but I do not feel that my client
should have to pay a fee again. Granted mistakes were made, but I would hope that
there is a way to work this out. The only changes in the application are due to
minimization 6 avoidance... Please let me know what you think as soon as you can.
Hope the holidays were good for you and yours!

Subject: Revised Precanstruction Notification Application for Celebrity Dairy Irrigation
Pond, Chatham County. DWQ #06-0 7 7 i, i3SACE Action ID #20"x620797.
Dear Mr. Matthews:
,~
r
~. ji/11
As a result of on site review and discussion with I~fir:'Todd Tugwell, USACE~Regulatory Field
OfEcer, on May 31, 2006, I have revised the subject Preconstruction Notification application to
request a Nationwide Permit #39, for Residential, Commercial and Institutional Developments, and
the corresponding Division of Water Quality Certification #3362. According to on-site discussion
with Mr. Tugwell, I have re-evaluated the subject stream and impact area, and have shifted the
proposed location of the dam for the proposed pond approximately 1 SO feet upstream This will
effectively minimize and avoid impacts to the jurisdictional stream in question, where Mr. Tugwell
made an importance call, based on aquatic crayfish and several small fish. I have included a
revised map with the new dam location shown and documentation of the stream re-evaluation.
Unfortunately, the perennial to intermittent transition point was not identified far enough upstream
in October 2005, and when small fish and aquatic crawfish were observed on May 31, 2006, we
both agreed that the stream idernification call needed to be revised Also, the original application
requested a Nationwide 40 for Agricultural Activities, which apparently was incorrect. So, this
letter constitutes a re-application for NWP #39 for the subject site.
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) approved the original water quality certification request on
May 25, 2006 as DWQ Project # 06-0771 with 848 feet of impacts to an intermittent stream
However, only 149 linear feet of fill or discharge in the stream channel by the construction of the
dam was proposed at the time, with the remaining 699 linear feet being inundated by the pond, but
not filled or impacted. It is our understanding that under NWP # 40, courtesy notification only is
required by DWQ if the jurisdictional impacts are less than 150 linear feet. Under the current
proposal, under NWP 39, permanent impacts to up to 3001ineaffeet are allowed without written
concurrence being required from DWQ. Consequently, no fee should have been required under the
previous application or under the current proposal. Ms. Cyndi Karoly of DWQ has agreed to
reissue the 401 Water Quality Certification for the Nationwide Permit #39 instead of the original
NWP 40.

Enclosed is the subject Preoonshuction Notification (PCN) application with.the attendant maps and
documentationrequired to re-initiate review of the subject property for issuance of Nationwide
Permit 39, Residential, Commercial and Institutional Developrr-ents, and the corresponding DWQ
Water Quality Certification #3362. The Celebrity Dairy Dam. Project wdl fill i48 feet of
intermittent stream for. the purpose of construdmg the dam, and will inundate approxnmately 700
linear feet of intermittent stream channel for as agricultural irrigation pond We have included two
paper copies for your review. Two courtesy copies have been sent to the Division of Water Quality
401 Certification Unit for review under WQC# 3362. ~ ~ ,
Project Des ion:
Celebrity Dairy Farm and lsm is located in Chatham County, west of Pittsboro, approximately two
miles north of US 64 on SR 1504 (Mt. Vernon-Hickory Church Road). The proposed 14.9 foot tall
dam is located on an unnamed tributary to Dry Creek, which drains to the Haw River in the Cape
Fear River Basin. 1'he project consists of the construction of an earthen dam and pond on a site that
has current land use of dairy pastures, natural pine and hardwood regeneration, and recently planted
loblolly pine seedlings. The proposed pond wdl be approximately 6.(r4 acres, with a drainage area
of approximately 200 acres. Wetland delineations, have determir}ed that no wetlands are located
within the impact limits of the proposed project.
'~rSr
Proposed Project Environmental Impacts: ~'' f
Under North Carolina statutes, certain activities are deemed permitted if thgq. eorriply with the most
current versions of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act. Therefore only the footprint of the
dam, including the outfall structures, constitutes the impacts to waters of the U. S. For this project,
those impacts equa1148 feet (or 0.014 acres) to an intermittent stream No other pern~anent
impacts are proposed for this project.
Impact Justification:
The dam is needed to water livestock for the dairy operation, and to irrigate crops. Current wells
for the existing Bed and Breakfast operation and existing dairy operation are not sufficient for crop
irrigation and livestock needs, or fire protection for the Inn.
Please review the enclosed revised application and contact us if you have any questions or need any
additional information. You may contact Ms Robin Maycock Little at [phone] or Ms. Ann
Fleming Pfann at [phone]. We look forward to your response.
Sincerely,

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC~ 2H .0500, mitigation may be .required by .the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 1 SO linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and ,Modification of IW'ationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2002, mitigation wdl be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource wdl be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and vaiues by creating, restoring, e~mcing; o~-~g-sear
functions and values, preferable in the same vYatershed ~„
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigatioq~pian must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the apphc''`ation complete for pif~cessing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCEEP concurrence shall be placed on hold as incomplete.
An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration in DWQ's
Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http: //h2o. enr.state.nc. us/ncwetlands/strm~~ide.html.
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not lunited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if mare space is needed.

Dear IVIr. Tugwell:
Enclosed is the subject preeonstruction Notification (PCN) application with the atbendart maps and
documentation required to initiate t+aview of the subject property far issuance of Nationwide Permit 40,
Agricultural Activities, and the corresponding DWQ Water Quality Certifi~tion #3364. The Celebrity

Project Descri 'on: - -mss
Celebrity Dairy Farm is located in Chatham County, west of Pittsboro, approanmabely two miles north of US
64 on SR 1504 (Mt. Vaaon-Hickory. (:hunch Road). The proposed 149 foot tal~d5m is locatiod on an
unnamed tn'butary to Dry Creek, which drains to the Haw River in the Cape Fear River Basin. The project
consists of the construction of as earthen dam and pond on a site that has current land use of dairy pastia+es,
natural pine and hardwood regeneration, and recently plantod loblolly pine seedlings. The proposed pond
will be approximately 6.64 aces, with a drainage area of approximately 200 acres. Wetland delineations
have determined that no wetlands are located within the impact limits of the proposed project.
Proposed Project Environmental Impacts:
Under North Carolina s~tutes, certain activities are deemed permitted if they comply with the most current
versions of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act. Therefore only the footprint of the dam, including the
outfall structures, constitutes the impacts to waters of the U. S. For this project, those impacts equa1148
feet (or 0.014 acres) to an intermittent stream. No other impacts are proposed for this project.
Impact Justification:
The dam is needed to water livestock for the dairy operation, and to irrigate crops. Current wells for the
existing Bed and Breakfast operation and existing dairy operation are not sufficient for crop irrigation and
livestock needs, or fire protection for the Inn.
Please review the enclosed application and provide a response as quickty as possible. If you have any
questions or need any additional information, do not hesitate to contact Ms. Fleming Pfann at (919) 742

Sediment and Erosion Control:
2. Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications governing
the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best Management Practices in
order to protect surface waters standards:
.,
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed, installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina
Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion control
measures must be such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in the most
recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices
shall be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects,
including contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the project.
c. Sufficient materials required for stabilization and/or repair of erosion control measures and
stormwater routing and treatment shall be on site at all'times.
s~~~
No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall oeGur in wetlands, waters, fir riparian azeas beyond the
footprint of the impacts depicted in the 404/401 Permit Application. All construction activities,
including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of sediment ahd erosion control Best
Management Practices, shall be performed so that no violations of state water quality standards,
statutes, or rules occur;
4. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the maximum extent
practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is
unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within six months of the date that the
Division of Land Resources has released the project;
5. Protective Fencing -The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary and along the construction corridor
within these boundaries approved under this authorization shall be clearly mazked with orange wazning
fencing (or similaz high visibility material) for the areas that have been approved to infringe within the
buffer, wetland or~vate~priorraany l~nd~isturbi b~ctiv~ties to ensure compliance wit,". 15 NCAC 2H,
Section .0500;
Deed Notifications -Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all retained
jurisdictional wetlands, waters and protective buffers in order to assure compliance for future
wetland, water and buffer impact. These mechanisms shall be put in place prior to impacting any
wetlands, waters and/or buffers approved for impact under this Certification Approval and
Authorization Certificate. A sample deed notification can be downloaded from the 401/Wetlands Unit
web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. The text of the sample deed notification may be
modified as appropriate to suit to this project;
7. Construction Stormwater Permit NCGO10000
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 (NCGO10000) 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: //h2o, enr.state. nc. us/sulForms Documents. htm. ;
8. Culvert Installation
Culverts~-equired for this projeet shall be installed ~n~uch manner tb~ profiles are
not altered. Existing stream dimensions (including the cross section dimehsions, pattern, and
longitudinal profile) must be maintained above and below locations of each culvert. Culverts shall be
designed and installed to allow for aquatic life movement as well as to prevent head cutting of the
streams. If any of the existing pipes are or become perched, the appropriate stream grade shall be re-
established or, if the pipes installed in a perched manner, the pipes shall be removed and re-installed
correctly.
Culvert(s) shall not be installed in such a manner that will cause aggradation or erosion of the stream up
or down stream of the culvert(s). Existing stream dimensions (inciuding me cross section~lin,ensions,
pattern and longitudinal profile) shall be maintained above and below locations of each culvert.
.,
Placement of culverts and other structures in waters, streams, and wetl~lis must be placed below the
elevation of the streambed by one foot for all cul't~'rts with a diameter greater than 48 inches, and 20
percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48 inches, to allow low flow
passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other structures including
temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result in dis-
equilibrium of wetlands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream of the above
structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium shall be maintained if
requested in writing by DWQ.
The establishment of native, woody vegetation and other soft stream bank stabilization techniques must
be used where practicable instead of rip rap or other bank hardening methods. If rip-rap is necessary, it
shall not be placed in the stream bed, unless specifically approved by the Division of Water Quality.
Installation of culverts in wetlands must ensure continuity of water movement and be designed to
adequately accommodate high water or flood conditions.
Upon completion of the project, the Applicant shall complete and return the enclosed "Certificate of
Completion" form to notify NCDWQ when all work included in the §401 Certification has been
completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form and return it to the 401/Wetlands
Unit of the NC Division of Water Quality upon completion of the project. Please send photographs
upstream and downstream of each culvert site to document correct installation along with the
Certificate of Completion form.
