Description of projects area and activity: This verification authorizes the discharge of fill associated with Runway 5/23 on the
outlying airfield to modernize and meet current training needs. Wetland impacts will occur off the northeastern end of the
runway to establish proper shoulder area side slopes from the elevated runway area. Additional impacts will occur to remove
and reinstall the portions of the drainage system for the project. A total of 0.436 acres of wetlands are proposed to be impacted
by the proposed construction (0.011 of temporary impacts and 0.425 permanent impacts).
Applicable Law(s): Section 404 (Clean Water Act, 33 USC 1344)

SEE ATTACHED NWP GENERAL, REGIONAL, AND/OR SPECIAL CONDITIONS
Your work is authorized by the above referenced permit provided it is accomplished in strict accordance with the attached
Conditions, your application signed and dated 9/23/2022, and the enclosed plans WL1-19 of 19 dated 9/26/2021. Any violation

expires or is suspended, revoked, or is modified, such that the activity would no longer comply with the terms and conditions of the
nationwide permit, activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under contract to commence in reliance upon
the nationwide and/or regional general permit, will remain authorized provided the activity is completed within twelve months of the
date of the nationwide and/or regional general permit’s expiration, modification or revocation, unless discretionary authority has been
exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify, suspend or revoke the authorization.

Activities subject to Section 404 (as indicated above) may also require an individual Section 401 Water Quality Certification. You

SPECIAL CONDITIONS
Camp Davis Runway
1. Work Limits: All work authorized by this permit shall be performed in strict compliance with the
referenced permit plans, which are a part of this permit. The Permittee shall ensure that the
construction design plans for this project do not deviate from the permit plans attached to this
authorization. Any modification to the attached permit plans must be approved by the U.S. Army
Corps of Engineers (Corps) prior to any active construction in waters or wetlands.
2. Construction Drawings: The permittee will ensure that the construction design plans/construction
drawings for this project do not deviate from the authorized permit plans. Any deviation in the
construction plans will be brought to the attention of the Corps of Engineers, Wilmington Regulatory
Field Office prior to any construction in waters or wetlands.

3. Unauthorized Dredge and/or Fill: Except as authorized by this permit or any Corps-approved
modification to this permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized land-clearing activities shall take place at
any time in the construction or maintenance of this project, within waters or wetlands. This permit
does not authorize temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material within waters
or wetlands outside the permitted area. This prohibition applies to all borrow and fill activities
connected with this project.

4. Permit Distribution: The Permittee shall require its contractors and/or agents to comply with the
terms and conditions of this permit in the construction and maintenance of this project, and shall
provide each of its contractors and/or agents associated with the construction or maintenance of this
project with a copy of this permit. A copy of this permit, including all conditions and drawings shall be
available at the project site during construction and maintenance of this project.

5. Reporting Violations: Violation of these permit conditions or violation of Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act shall be reported to the Corps in writing and by
telephone at: 910-251-4611 within 24 hours of the Permittee’s discovery of the violation.

6. Maintain Flows and Circulation Patterns of Waters: Except as specified in the plans attached to
this permit, no excavation, fill or mechanized land-clearing activities shall take place at any time in the
construction or maintenance of this project, in such a manner as to impair normal flows and
circulation patterns within waters or wetlands or to reduce the reach of waters and/or wetlands.
7. Sediment and Erosion Control:

1) During the clearing phase of the project, heavy equipment shall not be operated in surface
waters or stream channels. Temporary stream crossings will be used to access the opposite sides of
stream channels. All temporary diversion channels and stream crossings will be constructed of non-
erodible materials. Grubbing of riparian vegetation will not occur until immediately before construction
begins on a given segment of stream channel.

2) No fill or excavation impacts for the purposes of sedimentation and erosion control shall
occur within jurisdictional waters, including wetlands, unless the impacts are included on the plan
drawings and specifically authorized by this permit. This includes, but is not limited to, sediment
control fences and other barriers intended to catch sediment losses.
SAW-2021-01633
3) The Permittee shall remove all sediment and erosion control measures placed in waters
and/or wetlands, and shall restore natural grades on those areas, prior to project completion.
4) The Permittee shall use appropriate sediment and erosion control practices which equal or
exceed those outlined in the most recent version of the “North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control
Planning and Design Manual” to ensure compliance with the appropriate turbidity water quality
standard. Erosion and sediment control practices shall be in full compliance with all specifications
governing the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best Management
Practices in order to ensure compliance with the appropriate turbidity water quality standards. This
shall include, but is not limited to, the immediate installation of silt fencing or similar appropriate
devices around all areas subject to soil disturbance or the movement of earthen fill, and the
immediate stabilization of all disturbed areas. Additionally, the project shall remain in full compliance
with all aspects of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 (North Carolina General Statutes
Chapter 113A Article 4). Adequate sedimentation and erosion control measures shall be implemented
prior to any ground disturbing activities to minimize impacts to downstream aquatic resources. These
measures shall be inspected and maintained regularly, especially following rainfall events. All fill
material shall be adequately stabilized at the earliest practicable date to prevent sediment from
entering into adjacent waters or wetlands.
8.Aquatic Life Movement:No activity may substantially disrupt the necessary life cycle movements
of those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody, including those species that normally
migrate through the area. All discharges of dredged or fill material within waters of the United States
shall be designed and constructed to maintain low flows to sustain the movement of aquatic species.
9. Mitigation was satisfied on 10/22/2021 through the execution of the mitigation transfer form.
