This Certification shall expire on the same day as the expiration date of the corresponding Corps of Engineers
Permit.
This Water Quality Certification neither grants nor affirms any property right, license, or privilege in any lands
or waters, or any right of use in any waters. This Water Quality Certification does not authorize any person to
interfere with the riparian rights, littoral rights, or water use rights of any other person and does not create any
prescriptive right or any right of priority regarding any usage of water. This Water Quality Certification shall not be
interposed as a defense in any action respecting the determination of riparian or littoral rights or other rights to water
use. No consumptive user is deemed by virtue of this Water Quality Certification to possess any prescriptive or other
right of priority with respect to any other consumptive user regardless of the quantity of the withdrawal or the date
on which the withdrawal was initiated or expanded. Upon the presentation of proper credentials, the Division may
inspect the property.
Condition(s) of Certification:
Project Specific Conditions
1. Pipes and culverts used exclusively to maintain equilibrium in wetlands, where aquatic life passage is not a
concern, shall not be buried. These pipes shall be installed at natural ground elevation.
2. Wetland areas impacted by temporary clearing shall be stabilized and reseeded with native wetland seed.
Due to the possibility that compaction and/or other site alterations might prevent the temporary wetland impact
area from re -attaining jurisdictional wetland status; the permittee shall provide an update on the wetland areas
temporarily impacted at Site 2. This update shall be conducted two growing seasons after completion of the
work at Site 2 and shall consist of photographs and a brief report on the progress of the areas in re -attaining
wetland jurisdictional status. Upon submission of this update to the NCDWR, the permittee shall schedule an
agency field meeting with the NCDWR to determine if the wetland areas temporarily impacted by this project
have re -attained jurisdictional wetland status. If the wetland areas temporarily impacted by this project have not
re -attained jurisdictional wetland status, the NCDWR shall determine if compensatory wetland mitigation is to
be required.
4. Design and placement of the culvert and other structures shall be installed in such a manner that the original
stream profiles are not altered (i.e., the depth of the channel must not be reduced by a widening of the
streambed). Existing stream dimensions (including pattern and profile) are to be maintained above and below
locations of each culvert. The structures shall be designed and installed to allow for fish and other wildlife
movement as well as prevent headcutting of the stream. The applicant may be required to provide evidence that
the equilibrium has been maintained if requested in writing by the NCDWR. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
Unless otherwise approved in this certification, placement of culverts and other structures in open waters and
streams shall be placed below the elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts 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 is being maintained if requested in writing by NCDWR. If this
condition is unable to be met due to bedrock or other limiting features encountered during construction, please
contact NCDWR for guidance on how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be
required. [I 5A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
6. If multiple pipes or barrels are required, they shall be designed to mimic natural stream cross section as
closely as possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where appropriate.
Widening the stream channel should be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet or outlet end of
structures typically decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that requires increased
maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]

7. Riprap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel. If placement in the streambed is approved per plans
and permit, the riprap must be keyed -into the streambed in a manner that shall not preclude aquatic life passage.
Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly designed, sized and installed. [15A NCAC
02H.0506(b)(2)]
8. The stream channel shall be excavated no deeper than the natural bed material of the stream, to the maximum
extent practicable. Efforts must be made to minimize impacts to the stream banks, as well as to vegetation
responsible for maintaining the stream bank stability. Any applicable riparian buffer impact for access to stream
channel shall be temporary and be revegetated with native riparian species. [ 15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
9. Turbidity curtains shall be used to isolate all work areas from the stream at Gutter Branch prior to channel
relocation, including pile or casement installation, placement of riprap, excavation or filling. Strict adherence to
the Construction and Maintenance Best Management Practices will be required.
10. Channel relocations shall be completed and stabilized, and approved on site by NCDWR staff, prior to diverting
water into the new channel. Stream banks shall be matted with coir-fiber matting. Vegetation used for bank
stabilization shall be limited to native riparian vegetation and should include establishment of a vegetated buffer
on both sides of the relocated channel to the maximum extent practical. Also, rip -rap may be allowed if it is
necessary to maintain the physical integrity of the stream, but the applicant must provide written justification,
and any calculations used to determine the extent of rip -rap coverage requested. Once the stream has been
turned into the new channel, it may be necessary to relocate stranded fish to the new channel to prevent fish
kills. [15A NCAC 02H .0506(b)(3)]
It. Compensatory mitigation for impacts to .01 acres of riverine wetlands is required. We understand that you have
chosen to perform compensatory mitigation for impacts to wetlands through the North Carolina Division of
Mitigation Services (DMS), and that the DMS has agreed to implement the mitigation for the project. DMS has
indicated in a letter dated February 8, 2024, that they will assume responsibility for satisfying the federal Clean
Water Act compensatory mitigation requirements for the above -referenced project, in accordance with DMS's
Mitigation Banking Instrument signed July 28, 2010.
General Conditions
1. If concrete is used during construction, a dry work area shall be maintained to prevent direct contact between
curing concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured concrete shall not be discharged to
surface waters due to the potential for elevated pH and possible aquatic life and fish kills. [I 5A NCAC
0213.0200]
2. During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in waters of the U.S. or
protected riparian buffers. [ 15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
3. The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream above and below any crossing shall not be modified. Disturbed
floodplains and streams shall be restored to natural geomorphic conditions. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
4. The use of rip -rap above the Normal High -Water Mark shall be minimized. Any rip -rap placed for stream
stabilization shall be placed in stream channels in such a manner that it does not impede aquatic life passage.
[15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
5. The Permittee shall ensure that the final design drawings adhere to the permit and to the permit drawings
submitted for approval. [15A NCAC 02H .0507 (c) and 15A NCAC 02H .0506 (b)(2) and (c)(2)]
6. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area. Approved BMP measures from
the most current version of NCDOT Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags, rock
berms, cofferdams and other diversion structures shall be used to prevent excavation in flowing water. [15A

10. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface waters
is prohibited. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(3)]
11. The permittee and its authorized agents shall conduct its activities in a manner consistent with State water quality
standards (including any requirements resulting from compliance with §303(d) of the Clean Water Act) and any
other appropriate requirements of State and Federal law. If the NCDWR determines that such standards or laws are
not being met (including the failure to sustain a designated or achieved use) or that State or federal law is being
violated, or that further conditions are necessary to assure compliance, the NCDWR may reevaluate and modify this
certification. [15A NCAC 02B.0200]
12. All fill slopes located in jurisdictional wetlands shall be placed at slopes no flatter than 3:1, unless otherwise
authorized by this certification. [I 5A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
13. A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be maintained on the construction site at all times. In addition, the
Water Quality Certification and all subsequent modifications, if any, shall be maintained with the Division Engineer
and the on -site project manager. [15A NCAC 02H .0507(c) and 15A NCAC 02H .0506 (b)(2) and (c)(2)]
14. The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary located within the construction corridor approved by this
authorization, including all non-commercial borrow and waste sites associated with the project, shall be clearly
marked by highly visible fencing prior to any land disturbing activities. Impacts to areas within the fencing are
prohibited unless otherwise authorized by this certification. [15A NCAC 02H.0501 and .0502]
15. The issuance of this certification does not exempt the Permittee from complying with any and all statutes, rules,
regulations, or ordinances that may be imposed by other government agencies (i.e. local, state, and federal) having
jurisdiction, including but not limited to applicable buffer rules, stormwater management rules, soil erosion and
sedimentation control requirements, etc.
16. The Permittee shall report any violations of this certification to the Division of Water Resources within 24 hours of
discovery. [I5ANCAC 02B.0506(b)(2)]
17. Upon completion of the project (including any impacts at associated borrow or waste sites), the NCDOT Division
Engineer shall complete and return the "Certification of Completion Form" to notify the NCDWR when all work
included in the 401 Certification has been completed. [15A NCAC 02H.0507]
18. Native riparian vegetation 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. [I 5A NCAC 02B.0506(b)(2)]
19. There shall be no excavation from, or waste disposal into, jurisdictional wetlands or waters associated with this
permit without appropriate modification. Should waste or borrow sites, or access roads to waste or borrow sites, be
located in wetlands or streams, compensatory mitigation will be required since that is a direct impact from road
construction activities. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(3) and (c)(3)]
20. Erosion control matting that incorporates plastic mesh and/or plastic twine shall not be used along streambanks or
