We appreciate your attention to this matter. We are addressing your comments.
The upstream reach of this channel is relatively stable, and provides the reference for longitudinal profile and cross sectional area.
Bankfull width at the riffle section is approximately 4 feet, with a Bfull depth of 0.3 feet, for a width/depth ration of approximately 13.
Within the proposed repaired reach, the channel slope is approximately 4% (1.5 feet of drop over approximately 38 feet of run).
Using the upper reach as a reference condition, a Bc type channel will be restored, with a limited floodplain area. The proposed
structures will be utilized to ensure stability.
Upon completion of the channel work, vegetation will be restored. Vegetation is currently maintained grass, and will be restored to the
same condition.
All reasonable efforts will be made to "work in the dry" by utilizing passive bypass techniques (upstream diversion and gravity pipe
around).
No non -biodegradable materials will be used in the bank stabilization portion of this project.
I hope this meets your RAI needs. If you have any questions or comments, or need any additional information, please let me know.
I am in the field in Orange County for the next week, with limited email access. If you need anything, calling me on my cell phone is the
best option.
Thanks

Mike and Jan,
The Division of Water Resources (DWR) has performed a review of a 401 Water Quality Certification
application dated July 1, 2016 and received by DWR on August 16, 2016 for the above referenced
project. The DWR has determined that your application is incomplete and cannot be processed. The
application is on -hold until the following information is received:

1. Provide the proposed longitudinal profile and channel cross-section dimensions. Provide
justification for the proposed channel dimensions based on reference reach information or
stable dimensions upstream and downstream of the proposed re -alignment.
2. Provide a planting plan or explanation of how the stream will be stabilized with
vegetation/matting.
3. Explain how Condition number 7 of the GC "work in the dry" will be met.
4. Natural fiber matting is recommended for streambank stabilization over plastic matting that can
entrap small animals. [15A NCAC 02H .0506(b)(2)] Please ensure that no plastic matting is
used for the project.
Pursuant to Title 15A NCAC 02H .0502, the applicant shall furnish all of the above requested
information for the proper consideration of the application. If all of the requested information is not
received within 45 calendar days of receipt of this email, the DWR will be unable to approve the
application and it will be returned. The return of this project will necessitate reapplication to the DWR
for approval, including a complete application package and the appropriate fee.
Contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
