This approval is for the purpose and design described in your application. The plans and specifications
for this project are incorporated by reference as part of this Authorization Certificate. If you change
your project, you must notify the Division and you may be required to submit a new application
package. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Authorization Certificate
and is responsible for complying with all conditions. [15A NCAC 02B.0611(b)(2)]
If you are unable to comply with any of the conditions below, you must notify the DWR Transportation
Permitting Branch within 24 hours (or the next business day if a weekend or holiday) from the time the
permittee becomes aware of the circumstances. This corrected approval replaces the one issued on
June 1, 2023.
The permittee shall report to the DWR Raleigh Regional Office any noncompliance with the conditions of
this Authorization Certificate and/or any violation of state regulated riparian buffer rules [15A NCAC
02B.0714]. Information shall be provided orally within 24 hours (or the next business day if a weekend
or holiday) from the time the applicant became aware of the circumstances.
Conditions of Approval:
1. Mitigation must be provided for the proposed impacts as specified in the table below. The attached
Compensatory Mitigation Responsibility Acceptance Form (Form) shall be completed and provided to
the Division prior to any impacts occurring. If the Mitigation Provider specified on the attached Form for
the proposed impacts changes after issuance of this Certificate, then the Permittee shall request a
revised Compensatory Mitigation Responsibility Acceptance Form from the Division prior to conducting
any impacts.

2. All stormwater runoff shall be directed as sheetflow through stream buffers at non -erosive velocities,
unless otherwise approved by this certification. [15A NCAC 02B.0714]
3. All riparian buffers impacted by the placement of temporary fill or clearing activities shall be restored
to the preconstruction contours and revegetated. Maintained buffers shall be permanently revegetated
with non -woody species by the end of the growing season following completion of construction. For the
purpose of this condition, maintained buffer areas are defined as areas within the transportation
corridor that will be subject to regular Transportation facility maintenance activities including mowing.
The area with non -maintained buffers shall be permanently revegetated with native woody species
before the next growing season following completion of construction. [15A NCAC 02B.0714]
4. Pursuant to 15A NCAC 0213.0714 sediment and erosion control devices shall not be placed in Zone 1 of
any Neuse Buffer without prior approval by the NCDWR. At this time, the NCDWR has approved no
sediment and erosion control devices in Zone 1, outside of the approved project impacts, anywhere on
this project. Moreover, sediment and erosion control devices shall be allowed in Zone 2 of the buffers
provided that Zone 1 is not compromised and that discharge is released as diffuse flow.
5. Native riparian vegetation (i.e, trees and shrubs native to your geographic region) must be
reestablished in the riparian areas within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing
season following completion of construction. [15A NCAC 02B.0714] & [15A NCAC 02B.0506(b)(2)]
