The application provides adequate assurance that the discharge of fill material into the waters of the Cape Fear River
Basin in conjunction with the proposed development will not result in a violation of applicable Water Quality
Standards and discharge guidelines. Therefore, the State of North Carolina certifies that this activity will not violate
the applicable portions of Sections 301, 302, 303, 306, 307 of PL 92-500 and PL 95-217 if conducted in accordance
with the application and conditions hereinafter set forth.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you submitted in your application dated received August
30, 2007. Should your project change, you are required to notify the DWQ and submit a new application. If the
property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter, and is thereby
responsible for complying with all the conditions. If any additional wetland impacts, or stream impacts, for this
project (now or in the future) exceed one acre or 150 linear feet, respectively, additional compensatory mitigation may
be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to remain valid, you are required to
comply with all the conditions listed below. In addition, you should obtain all other federal, state or local permits
before proceeding with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion control, Coastal Stormwater,
Non-discharge and Water Supply watershed regulations. This Certification shall expire on the same day as the
expiration date of the corresponding Corps of Engineers Permit.
Conditions of Certification:
1. Compensatory mitigation for impacts to 7,179 linear feet of perennial streams at a replacement ratio of 1:1 is
required. Compensatory mitigation for impacts to jurisdictional streams shall be provided by onsite stream relocations
of 640 linear feet of UT Reedy Branch at Site 3, Section C. The onsite stream relocation shall be constructed in
accordance with the design submitted in your August 30, 2007 application and additional information received
November 1, 2007. Please be reminded that as-builts for the completed streams shall be submitted to the North
Carolina Division of Water Quality 401 Wetlands Unit with the as-builts for the rest of the project. If the parameters
of this condition are not met, then the permittee shall supply additional stream mitigation. All channel relocations will
be constructed in a dry work area, will be completed and stabilized, and must be approved on site by DWQ staff, prior
to diverting water into the new channel. Whenever possible, channel relocations shall be allowed to stabilize for an
entire growing season. All stream relocations shall have a 50-foot wide native, wooded buffer planted on both sides of
the stream unless otherwise authorized by this Certification. A transitional. phase incorporating rolled erosion control
product (RECP) and appropriate temporary ground cover is allowable.
2. The permittee shall visually monitor the vegetative plantings to assess and ensure complete stabilization of the
mitigation stream segments. Riparian area success shall be determined by conducting stem counts to ensure a tree
survival rate of 320 stems/acre. The monitoring shall be conducted annually for a minimum of 3 years after final
planting. Photo documentation shall be utilized to document the success of the riparian vegetation and submitted to
DWQ in a final report within sixty (60) days after completing monitoring. After 3 years the NC Turnpike Authority
shall contact the DWQ to schedule a site visit to "close out" the mitigation site.
3. Compensatory mitigation for the remaining 6,539 linear feet of impact to perennial streams is required. We
understand that you have chosen to perform compensatory mitigation for impacts to streams through the North
Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP), and that the EEP has agreed to implement the mitigation for the
project. EEP has indicated in a letter dated July 18, 2007 that they will assume responsibility for satisfying the federal
Clean Water Act compensatory mitigation requirements for the above-referenced project, in accordance with the Tri-
Party MOA signed on July 22, 2003 and the Dual-Party MOA signed on April 12, 2004.
4. Compensatory mitigation for impacts to 10.81 acres of riparian wetlands and 9.33 acres of non-riparian wetlands is
required. We understand that you have chosen to perform compensatory mitigation for impacts to wetlands through
the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP), and that the EEP has agreed to implement the mitigation
for the project. EEP has indicated in a letter dated July 18, 2007 that they will assume responsibility for satisfying the
federal Clean Water Act compensatory mitigation requirements for the above-referenced project, in accordance with
the Tri-Party MOA signed on July 22, 2003 and the Dual-Parry MOA signed on April 12, 2004

on the progress of this temporarily impacted area in re-attaining wetland jurisdictional status. If the wetland area
temporarily impacted by this project has not re-attained jurisdictional wetland status, NC DWQ shall determine if
compensatory wetland mitigation will be required.
7. A copy of the final construction drawings shall be furnished to NCDWQ Central Office prior to the pre-
construction meeting. The permittee shall provide written verification that the final construction drawings comply
with the permit drawings contained in the application dated August 30, 2007. Any deviations from the approved
drawings are not authorized unless ofr30 days prior to the Quality. the Division of Water
Quality shall be notified
8. The North Carolina Turnpike Authority shall acquire its NPDES permit from DWQ before this highway can be
opened to the public. Written notification shall be made to the Transportation Permitting Unit to comply with this
condition.
9. At locations where ponds will be drained, proper measures will be taken to drain the pond with limited impact to
upstream and downstream channel stability as well as to native aquatic species. Proper measures will be taken to
avoid sediment release and/or sediment accumulation downstream as a result of pond draining. If typical pond
draining techniques will create significant disturbance to native aquatic species, additional;measures such as collection
and relocation may be necessary to prevent a significant fish kill. The permittee shall consult with NC Wildlife
Resources staff to determine if there are any sensitive species, and the most appropriate measures to limit impacts to
these species. The permittee shall observe any natural channel re-establishment, or utilize natural channel
construction techniques, to ensure that the jurisdictional stream channel above and below the drained pond remain
stable, and that no additional impacts occur within the natural stream channel as a result of draining the pond. To
wining
comply with this condition, the permittee shall submit a Pond Drainage Plan to be approved by DWQ prior any ponds on the project.
10. The post-construction removal of any temporary bridge structures must return the project site to its
preconstruction contours and elevations. The impacted areas shall be revegetated with appropriate native species.
11. Strict adherence to the most recent version of NCDOT's Best Management Practices For Bridge Demolition and
Removal approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers is a condition of the 401 Water Quality Certification.
12. Bridge deck drains shall not discharge directly into streams or surface waters. Stormwater shall be directed across
the bridge and pre-treated through site-appropriate means (grassed swales, pre-formed scour holes, vegetated buffers,
etc.) before entering the stream. Please refer to the most current version of Stormwater Best Management Practices.
13. 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.

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 DWQ determines that such standards or laws are not being met
