Cherri,
Since this is a change to the project resulting from the 404 review process, we can just re -issue the approval
letter with the corrected open water impact. I'm not going to open a new version unless you need me to. I'll
add this information to LF.
Thanks,
Jennifer

Andrew -
Please see updated PCN and worksheet to reflect the maintenance impacts associated with this project. The
maintenance sites are ones that were previously stabilized by USACE, however they need additional rip rap
added as they have failed in some locations. We do not anticipate having to add much stone to these sites, and
it would be difficult to calculate the exact volume as we are simply plugging holes where the rip rap has failed.
Please note I have calculated the additional open water impacts and it reflects .7 acres of open water impacts,
instead of the .55. The buffer impacts will remain the same as maintenance sites were previously disturbed,
however because of the additional impacts to water quality I will submit the changes to DWR.
Cheri - Do you need any additional information from me to reflect changes to the water quality certification
that was issued to us?
Attached are some pictures from Parkers Creek and Poplar Point that were taken in 2009. These sites have only
gotten worse. Please let me know if you need anything else.
Thank You.

3. Project Description
3a. Describe the existing conditions on the site and the general land use in the vicinity of the project at the time of this
application:
The land is used for recreational purposes and is managed by The State of North Carolina. Specifically the areas that are
involved for this project are used for camping. The shoreline is eroding and is in danger of absorbing campsites and
infrastructure.
3b. List the total estimated acreage of all existing wetlands on the property:
220 acres per NWI GIS Mapping.
3c. List the total estimated linear feet of all existing streams (intermittent and perennial) on the property:
35,300 linear feet per USGS GIS Stream Mapping
3d. Explain the purpose of the proposed project:
The purpose of the proposed project is to stabilize the banks of Jordan Lake where erosion is putting campsites and park
infrastructure in jeopardy.
3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used:
The proposed project will stabilize lake shoreline at selected sites in the Parkers Creek and Poplar Point areas of Jordan
Lake State Park. Stabilization will be achieved through some grading with heavy equipment and installation of rip -rap.
Work will be completed by park staff with the goal of protecting the shoreline and minimizing impacts below the high water
mark of the lake. Equipment to be used include backhoe, dump truck, bobcat, potentially a crane and hand tools. Grading
will be completed with the purpose of allowing for a place where rip rap will be stationed and not wash away.
