The project shall be constructed in accordance with your application dated and received August 8, 2017.
After reviewing your application, we have decided that these impacts are covered by General Wate'r Quality
Certification Number 4088. This certification corresponds to Nationwide Permits 14 issued by the Corps
of Engineers. You should acquire any other federal, state or local permits before you proceed with your
project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge and Water Supply
Watershed regulations. This approval will expire with the accompanying 404 permit.
This approval is valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified
below). Should your project change, you must notify the NCDWR 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 total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future)
exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or in the future) exceed 300 linear feet, compensatory
mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to
remain valid, you must adhere to the conditions listed in the attached certification(s) and any additional
conditions listed below.
Condition(s) of Certificataon
Project Specific Conditions:
1. A turbidity curtain will be installed in the stream if driving or drilling activities occur within the
stream channel, on the stream bank, or within 5 feet of the top of bank. This condition can be
waived with prior approval from the NCDWR. [15A NCAC 02H .0506(b)(3)]
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 downstream of the above structures. The applicant is required to provide
evidence that the equilibrium is being maintained if requested in writing by the NCDWR. If this
condition is unable to be met due to bedrock or other limiting features encountered during
construction, please contact the NCDWR far guidance on how to proceed and to determine if a
permit modification will be required. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]

Condition(s) of Certificataon
Project Specific Conditions:
1. A turbidity curtain will be installed in the stream if driving or drilling activities occur within the
stream channel, on the stream bank, or within 5 feet of the top of bank. This condition can be
waived with prior approval from the NCDWR. [15A NCAC 02H .0506(b)(3)]
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

condition is unable to be met due to bedrock or other limiting features encountered during
construction, please contact the NCDWR far guidance on how to proceed and to determine if a
permit modification will be required. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
3. 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)]
4. Riprap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner that
precludes aquatic life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly designed,
sized and installed. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
5. For the 61 linear feet of streams being impacted due to site dewatering activities, the site shall be
graded to its preconstruction contours and revegetated with appropriate native species. [15A NCAC
02H.0506(b)(2)]
6. As a condition of this 401 Water Quality Certification, the bridge demolition and construction must
be accomplished in strict compliance with the most recent version of NCDOT's Best Management
Practices for Construction and Maintenance Activities. [15A NCAC 02H .0507(d)(2) and 15A
NCAC'02H .0506(b)(5)]
7. No drill slurry or water that has been in contact with uncured concrete shall be allowed to enter
� surface waters. This water shall be captured, treated, and disposed of properly. [15A NCAC 02H
.0506(b)(3)]
8. All riparian buffers impacted by the placement of temporary fill or clearing activities shall be
restored to the preconstruction contours and revegetated. Maintained buffers shall be permanently
revegetated with non-woody species by the end of the growing season following completion of
construction. For this condition, maintained buffer areas are defined as areas within the
txansportation corridor that will be subject to regular NCDOT maintenance activities including
mowing. The area with non-maintained buffers shall be permanently revegetated with native woody
species before the next growing season following completion of construction. (15A NCAC 2B.0267)
9. Pursuant to 15A NCAC 2B.0267 sediment and erosion control devices shall not be placed in Zone
1 of any Jordan Buffer without prior approval by the NCDWR. At this time, the NCDWR has
approved no sediment and erosion control devices in Zone 1, outside of the approved project
impacts, anywhere on this project. Moreover, sediment and erosion control devices shall be allowed
in Zone 2 of the buffers if Zone 1 is not compromised and that discharge is released as diffuse flow.
10. 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)]
11. All stormwater runoff shall be directed as sheetflow through stream buffers at non-erosive velocities,
unless otherwise approved by this certification. (15A NCAC 2B.0267)
12. Any modifications to this 401 Water Quality Certification that propose additional stream impacts or
increased impervious surface requiring additional stormwater management may be subject the
Jordan Water Supply Nutrient Strategy (15A NCACO2B .0267). The NCDOT shall coordinate with
the NCDWR prior to submitting a modification request to determine the applicability of the Jordan
Water Supply Nutrient Strategy.
3. 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

Jordan Water Supply Nutrient Strategy (15A NCACO2B .0267). The NCDOT shall coordinate with
the NCDWR prior to submitting a modification request to determine the applicability of the Jordan
Water Supply Nutrient Strategy.
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 dischar.ged to surface waters due to the potential for elevated pH and possible
aquatic life and fish kills. [15A NCAC 02B.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 the 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 NCAC 02H.0506(b)(3) and (c)(3)]
7. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channel to minimize
sedimentation and reduce the introduction of other pollutants into the stream. [15A NCAC
02H.0506(b)(3)]
8. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and maintained
to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids, or other toxic
materials. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(3)]
9. No rock, sand or other materials shall be dredged from the stream channel except where authorized
by this certification. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(3)]
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 Staxe
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 shail be placed at slopes no flatter than 3:1, unless
otherwise authorized by this certification. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(2)]
13. A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be maintained on the construction site always. In
addition, the Water Quality Certifcation 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 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 certifcation does not exempt the Permittee from complying with 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. [15A NCAC 02B.0506(b)(2)]
17. Upon completion of the project (including any impacts at associated borrow or waste sites), the
NCDOT Division Engineer (or appointee) shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of
Completion Form" to notify the NCDWR when all work included in the 401 Certification has been
completed. [15ANCAC 02H.0502(fl]
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. [15A NCAC
02B.0267(10)] �
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 and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications governing
the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best Management Practices
to protect surface waters standards [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(3) and (c)(3]):
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed, installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina
Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion control
measures must be such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in the most recent
version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices shall be
maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects, including
contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the project.
c. For borrow pit sites, the erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed,
operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina
Surface Mining Manual.
d. The reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the reclamation in
accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
21. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters unless otherwise
approved by this Certification. [15A NCAC 02H.0506(b)(3) and (c)(3)]
