requirements pertaining to the application to excavate for the purpose of a
���. 5 �► 7 Q.CLP_�i�_•
In addition, Uwe have read and agree to comply with Duke's current Shoreline
Management Guidelines (SMG), much of which is repeated hearin, and understand that
written authorization must be obtained from Duke Energy Lake Services prior to
beginning any activity within the FERC project boundary or on Duke Energy land. The
excavation will be completed as described in the approved application and within
eighteen (18) months from the date of written approval by Lake Services, unless
specifically noted otherwise in the application or unless Uwe obtain approval for a single,
time extension (maximum of one year) in writing from Duke Energy Lake Services. Uwe
understand that if the SMG or other applicable rules change during any extension period,
I/we will be expected to comply with the new requirements to the maximum extent
practicable. 1/we also recognize that failure to complete the excavation within this build-
out period will require the filing of a new application within the then -current SMG and
that the new application must include any applicable fees and security deposits.
www. duke -energy. con r

Uwe attest to be the owner(s) or lease holder(s) of the land immediately adjoining the
project boundary or Duke -owned peripheral strip where the excavation activity is to take
place, or if not the owner or lease holder, Uwe have included proof of title to the property
and written authorization from the owner(s) or lease holder(s) to carry out the proposal
within the project boundary adjacent to their land.
I/we attest to be the owner(s) or lease holder(s) of the land that will be used for
equipment staging and disposal of excavated material or if not the owner or lease holder,
I/we have included proof of title to the property and written authorization from the
owner(s) or lease holder(s) to carry out the work on their land.
Uwe understand that all excavation work must be done directly in front of my/our
property and within the third of the cove nearest my/our property or within any middle
third of the cove that Duke Energy owns, or Uwe have written authorization from the
owner(s) or lease holder(s) to carry out the proposal within the project boundary adjacent
to/on their land. Uwe also understand that access channels must run perpendicular to the
shoreline while within the third of the cove area that is nearest my/our property.
Uwe understand that for proposed excavations , Uwe must notify the appropriate local,
state and federal agencies in advance of the activity by sending them a completed copy of
Duke's Excavation Permit Application Form and other required information. Uwe
understand that written authorization and/or other permits may be required by some of
these agencies and such required authorizations must be obtained before Uwe submit the
final application to Duke Energy Lake Services.
I/we understand that except for maintenance excavations, any excavation exceeding 2000
cubic yards of material removed or any excavation or shoreline stabilization work needed
to support an application that requires Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC)
review does itself require specific review and approval by the FERC before Duke Energy
can issue any approvals.
I/we agree that unless specifically approved otherwise in the application, explosives will
not be used as part of this excavation activity.
I/we understand that every reasonable effort must be made to minimize any adverse
impact on fish, wildlife and other natural resources.
I/we understand that applicants in South Carolina proposing excavations that are not
covered under the General Permit, or are greater than 150 cubic yards, must receive prior
written authorization from the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental
Control (SCDHEC) or the US Army Corps of Engineers (as applicable) before
submitting the completed application to Lake Services.

EXCAVATION APPLICATION Effective Date: 11/15/98
Gpal/LAKEMGMT/Package Information/NC C -W Dredge/Excagre9. 15.06.doc

I/we agree that excavation activities in North Carolina and South Carolina will not occur
during the months of March, April, May and June because of the potential impacts to fish
spawning areas.
I/we understand that trees and vegetation growing within or adjoining the lake play an
important role in its overall environmental condition, and the ecological benefit the
vegetation has on fish and wildlife habitat directly supports a sound and healthy lake
environment. 1/we also understand that unauthorized removal of shoreline vegetation (e.g.
button bushes, willows, cattails, etc.) and/or disturbance of the shoreline buffer may
result in suspension or denial of lake use permitting requests, forfeiture of security
deposits and require re-establishment of vegetation at my/our expense, particularly if the
disturbance is found to be in violation of state or local ordinances or impacts FERC
project buffers.
I/we agree that all excavated material will be placed in upland areas, landward of the
project boundary, and confined to prevent erosion and sedimentation back into the lake or
nearby streams.
I/we agree to adequately stabilize all excavated material and all disturbed shoreline to
prevent erosion and runoff into the lake.
I/we understand that the double handling of excavated material will not be allowed;
therefore, all excavated material must be placed above the project boundary in one
handling.
I/we have designed the hydraulic excavation process (if any will be used) so that return
water re-enters the lake in the same general vicinity and cove as the excavation, to the
maximum extent practicable.
1/we agree that the proposed excavation will not be for the purpose of creating additional
shoreline, will not alter the project boundary or the full pond contour, and will not impact
threatened or endangered species, historic properties, or environmentally -important areas,
unless special public entity provisions were made in the application.
I/we recognize that it is my/our responsibility to clearly locate in the field and label on
my/our work area drawings any areas that require specific protection or avoidance during
this excavation work. Examples of these protection/avoidance areas include but are not
limited to, any Environmental Areas, Natural Areas or Impact Minimization Zones as
identified by Duke; jurisdictional wetlands; historic properties; rare or threatened species;
and buried gas, water, sewer, electric or communications lines. I/we agree to provide
nay/our contractor with a copy of these work area drawings showing these areas to stress
the necessary protection measures.
I/we agree that if any archaeological resources (e.g. pottery shards, Indian artifacts, etc.)
are discovered during the excavation, work shall be halted immediately. I/we will then
notify Duke Energy Lake Services and the State Historic Preservation Office to
Duke Energy Page 3 Rev: 915/06
EXCAVATION APPLICATION Effmice Dale: 11/15/98
Gpal/LAKEMGMT/Package Informawn/NC C -W Dredge/Excagre9.15.06.doc

determine what measures, if any, I/we must pursue to protect or salvage the
archaeological resources.
I/we agree that any excavation from within the project boundary will not exceed the
volume as outlined in the application and will remove and disturb only what is absolutely
necessary to achieve the project's stated purpose.
I/we agree to be fully responsible for the permitted lake use and 1/we understand that this
responsibility is considered to transfer automatically along with ownership and leases of
the adjoining tract.
I/we understand that Lake Services representatives may issue Stop Work Directives for
any violations of the SMG and that other consequences may result from such violations,
including but not limited to suspension or cancellation of approved permits, increases in
fees, modification or removal of non -complying structures and restoration of disturbed
areas at my/our own expense or loss of any consideration for future lake use permits.
I/we agree to immediately comply with any Stop Work Directives, to fully cooperate with
Duke Energy Lake Services and other agencies as necessary and to perform the necessary
remedial actions within the specified time frame.
1/we agree to develop any required mitigation plans and to complete any required
