Dear Mr./Ms. Levin:
This letter is in response to the Pre -Construction Notification (PCN) you submitted to
the Wilmington District, Asheville Regulatory Field Office on October 17, 2030, for a
Department of the Army Nationwide permit (NWP) verification. This project has been
assigned the file number SAW-2022-01699 and is known as Old Charlotte Highway.
This file number should be referenced in all correspondence concerning this project.
A review of the information provided indicates that the proposed work would include
the installation of road crossings, fill for a building pad, and similar impacts associated
with residential development resulting in permanent impacts to 172.4 ft of unnamed
tributaries (UTs) to Gashes Creek, 0.029 acre of wetland, and 0.207 acre of open
waters. The project area for this determination includes a 99 acre(s) area which is
illustrated on the enclosed site plans/maps. The project/review area is located along Old
Charlotte Highway, at Latitude 35.555836 and Longitude-82.468381; in Asheville,
Buncombe County, North Carolina.
We have determined that the proposed work is authorized by Nationwide Permit 29
pursuant to authorities under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. § 1344).
The proposed work must be accomplished in strict accordance with the general permit
conditions, any regional conditions, the special conditions listed in this letter, the
application materials, and the enclosed plans by Civil Design Concepts, PA titled Old
Charlotte Impact Bulletin, Figures 5.0 through 5.7, dated October 2023. If the extent of
the project area and/or nature of the authorized impacts to waters are modified, a
revised PCN must be submitted to this office for written approval before work is initiated.
Any violation of permit conditions or deviation from your submitted plans may subject
the permittee to enforcement action.
This verification is valid until March 15, 2026, unless prior to this date the subject
NWP(s) is suspended, revoked, or is modified such that the activity no longer complies
with the terms and conditions of this NWP. If you commence or are under contract to
commence this activity before the date that the relevant NWP is modified or revoked,
you will have 12 months from the date of the modification or revocation of the NWP to
complete the activity under the present terms and conditions of this NWP.
Project Specific Special Conditions:
1. In order to avoid/minimize effects to federally endangered/threatened species,
tree clearing activities must be conducted outside the Northern Long Eared Bat
summer roosting season. All tree clearing activities shall commence between
October 15th and April 1st
Activities subject to Section 404 (as indicated above) may also require an individual
Section 401 Water Quality Certification. You should contact the NC Division of Water
Resources (telephone 919-807-6300) to determine Section 401 requirements.
This NWP verification does not preclude the necessity to obtain any other Federal,
State, or local permits, licenses, and/or certifications, which may be required.
If you have any questions related to this verification or have issues accessing
documents referenced in this letter, please contact Mitchell Anderson, Regulatory
Specialist of the Asheville Regulatory Field Office at 828.271.7980 ext 4231, by mail at
