Some lezpedeza and dog fennel on sw side of site. �-20-2016 Site visit with Dave Wanucha. Use sombo 1255 for gate entrance. Upper NE half densefy vegetated with !rees, many cottonwood willow and river birch volunteers. Some trees 10 high already 9-20.2016 Lower SW half less vegetated. Upper quarter of lower SW half is better. Lower 3/4 of lower SW half has some bare patches on toppe of ripped ridges. Not clear why such a dramatic difference in upper and lower halves of site. 9-20-2016 Soil should have been augmented with organiu and ridges from ripping not left behind. A number of planted trees in plet in lower SW half are barely hanging on. Has been dry lately. There are wetland p!ants (wool grass) in lower half. 9-20-2016 Most likely the lower half was compacted more, not sure where bridge was prior to restoration of wetland.

The site wa� planted in January 2014 and was designed as w�tland mitigation for impacts ass�ciated with TIP pro;ect I-2304A. The mitigation encc�mpasses approximately 2.74 acres total of riverine botfomland hardwood wetland rEstoration at the Yadkir� River Wetland Mitigation Site �y removing the existing road�ray �ill. The mitic�a�ion efforf involv�d ripping and re-veg�tating th� area that is being restored. The area that was restored is being monitored �vith vegetation pl�ts and photo points for survival of planted seedlings. No hydrofogic monitoring is required for this project; however, vegetation moniioring is required for five years. There were two vegetation monitoring plots established throughout the 2.74 acre site. After the first year of monitorin�, the 2015 vegetation monitoring of the site revealed an average tree density of 680 trees per acre. NCDOT proposes to continue vegetation monitoring at the Yadkin River Wetland Mitigation Site in 2016. . , 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 Project Descreption �he Ya�kifi �iver V'Jetland PJlitigation S�te is located adjacent to the I-85 overpass of the Y�dkin River in Rowan County. The site consists of approximately 2.74 �c!°es of ri��erine wetiand mitigation for wetland impacf� associated with TIP �roject I-2304A. 1.2 Rur�ose In order for a mitigation site to qe considered successful, the site must meet vegetation success criteria. i his repQrt details the ve�etation monitorin� in 20i � at the Yadkin River Wetland Mitigation Site.

NCDOT shall mcnitor the site for a minimum of five years or until the site. is deemed successful. A 320 st�ms per acre survival criterion for planted seedlings will be used to determine success for the first three years., The required survivaf criterion will decrease by 10% each year after the third year of vegetation monitoring (i.e. for an expected 290 stems per acre for year 4 and 260 stems per acre for year 5). . No specific hydrological monitoring is proposed for this mitigation site. The target elevation will be based on the adjacent wetland elevatian and verified during construction. Constructing the site at the adjacent wetland elevation will ensure the hydrology �nd connectivity of the restored areas are similar to the hydrology in the reference areas. � 2.2 �escrip#ior� �f Sp�c�� The following tree species vr�re �lanted in the We#land _Restoration area: Platanus occidentalis, Sycamore Betula ni�ra, R�ver Birch Fraxinus pennsyl�anica,,Green Ash Ulmus americana, American Elm Nyssa �ylvatica, Black Gum C?uercus michauxii, Swamp Chestnut Oak s 2.3 Results of Vegetation Monitoring � � O � � � � � � � W � � A .� � fl. � p ""' � cC �, � �"i � �, GQ .;� �, � � �, � � t� � t� yC � �' °-� 'v� Ov '7 i�., �i" e� � ♦' ♦' � '� ri �"7 � ri F E�-+ A 1 13 15 12 40 40 680 � 14 12 11 1 3 4i 4i 680 Year 1 Average D�nsity 680 (irees/Acre) Site Notes: Other species noted onsite included volunteer river birch, sycamore, cctt�nw��cd, Icspedeza, s��r�e#g:�rr�, rQd maple, woclgrass, Scir�us sp., fQnnel, s,��k�see:.l, �uls� �c�l�r, z�utt��us�, �;r��s�, ,ic.�rc�s ��., �I�ck vviii��rv, ��ick6e��, sma�t�ve�d, a�id various gras�es. 2.4 Concfusions , There were 2 vegetation monitoring plots established throughout the 2.74 acre �ite.

For this approva! to remain valid, you are required to comply wiih all the conditions tisted below. [n addition, you should obtain all other fecferal, state or local permits before proceeding with yo�r 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 , coResponding Corps of Engineers Permit. . • � • _ , � , Condition(s) of Certification: • . - . � . , � . . , a . . . , �.. . . . . . l. All other conditions written into previous Water Quafity Certifications dated March l4, 2004 with modifications issued November 22, 2001, September 27, 2010, and November 4, 2010 for this project still apply except where they are superseded by this certification. 2. Compensatory mitigation for 366 linear feet of impact to streams is required. We understand that you �ave chosen to perform compensatory mitigation for impacts to streams through the North Carolina Ecosystem �nhancement Program (EEP}, and tl�at the EEP has agreed to . . . ....,. . . . r . . . ...�h . . . .. . ... . . ,. .. . implement ihe mitigation for the project. EEP has ind'rcated in a(etter dated Apri130, 2004 that ,, they will assume responsibility for satisfying the federal Clean Water Act compensatory mitigation requiremenis 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,.2U04. � 3. Post-construction Stormwater shall be treated using appropriate best management practices (e.g., vegetated conveyances, constructed wetlands, detention ponds, etc.) prior to discharging to surface waters. - 4. Unless otherwise approved in this certification, glacement of culverts and other strtcctures in open waters and strearns, 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 cuiverts 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 ero'sion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result in dis-equilibrium of wettands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and downstream oPthe above structures. The applicanE is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is.being maintained if requested in writing by NCDWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrocEc or other limiting features encountered during construction, please contact NCDWQ for guidance on how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be required. 5. If muttiple 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. Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in criminal and/or civil penalties. This Certification shall become null and void unless the above conditions are made conditions of the Federal 404 and/or Coastal Area Management Aci Permit.

Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications governing the proper design, installarion and operation and maintenance of such Best Management Pract+ces in order to protect �uaiace waters standazds: 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 anrl Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual. b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the secliment and erosion control measures must be such tha.t they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in • the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manudl. 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 maintaimed in accordance with the most recent version of the 1Vorth Carolina Surface Mining Manual. . � d. . Any reclamation measures and implementation must comply _ with the reclamation �n accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Ac� 2. No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the�.Application. All. construction activities shall be performed so that no violations of sta.te water qualxty standazds, statutes, or rules occur. 3. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be plaeed in wetlands or waters to the maximum extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within 30 days after the project ha.s been released. � 4. Stornawater management shall be constructed in accordance with the hydraulic design plans submitted in the February 20, 2004 application., . 5. The hazardous spill catch basins (I-2304AA Plan Sheet 9) shall be designed and located to afford ready access to ma.intenance and emergency response personnel and equipment. ■ The volume of spill containment storage provided will be approximately 10,000 gallons plus the estimated runoff volume from rainfall intensiry equating to a two-yeaz return period event. � ■ A means will be provided such that the normal free flow of runoff at the basin outlet can be interrupted to cauae containment of hazazdous runoff. This can be accomplished by providing a mechanical control gate or by constructing a minimum control section in the 'outlet channel. The mechanical gate altemative will generally be utilized in azeas where normal operational activities. would allow close scrutiny and control, reducing the potential forproblems with vandalism. � ■ Maintenance plans for constructed basins shall be developed in accordance with Best Management Practices (BMPs) and good engineering practices. Addirional guidance for properly maintaining containment basins can be found at 40 CFR Part 112, § 112.7, et al. (Spill Prevention Control and Countermeasures). � ■ Inspections of the hazardoas spill catch basin and opening/shutting of the gate should be � performed annually at a minimum, and within six (6) months after a spill incident to ensure ir�teg:iiy af t�e catch basin. . � ■: Repairs should occur in a timely manner. , � Gregory J. Thorpe, Ph.D. ' §401 Water Quality Certification No. 3455 � � � I-2304 AA and I-2304 BA � ■ NCDOT should provide annually, a site locarion map of all hazardous spill catch basins and similaz devices to Federal(USEPA, USCG), DENR, State Emergency Response Coordinator, and all applicable county and urban center response groups. ■ Signage indicating ihe presence of a hazardous spill catch basin shall be provided. 6. The outside wetland or water boundary as well as along the construction comdor within these boundaries approved under this authozization shall be clearly marked by orange fabric fencing for the areas that have been approved to infringe within the wetland or water prior to any land disturbing acrivities. . 7. NCDOT and its contractors and/or agents shall not excavate, fill', or perform mechanized land clearing at any time in the construction or maintenance of this project within waters and/or wetlands, except as authorized by this Certification, or any modification to this Certification. There shall be no exca�+ation irom or waste disposal into jurisdictional wetlands or waters associated with this Certification without appropriate modification. If this occurs, compensatory mitigation will be required since .it is a direct impact from road constructiQn activiries. � 8. Excavation of stream crossings should be canducted in the dry unless demonstrated by the applicant or its authorized agent to be unfeasible. Sandbags, cofFerclams, flexible pipe, or other diversion structures should be used to minimize excavation in flowing water. 9. Live or fresh concrete shall not come into contact with waters of the staxe until the concrete has hazdened. . 10. Discharging hyd.�seeding mixturQs and washing out hydros�eders and oth�r equipment in or ad�acen€ to si:rfa�e t�.��ters is �±�ic;1y prol�bited, 11. The removal of vegetation in riparian azeas should be minimized. NCDOT is eneouraged to use existing on-site vegetatiton and materials for stream bank stabilizaxion and to minimize the use of rip rap. Riprap shall not be placed in the stream bottom. .Riparian vegetation, using native Lrees and shrubs, must be re-established within� the construction limits of the project by the end of the � growing season followi.ng completion of construction to reestablish the riparian zone and to provide long-term erosion control. . . 12. Giilverts that are less than 48-inch in diameter should be� buried to a depth equal to or greater than 20% of their size to allow for aquatic life passage. Culverts thaf are 48-inch diameter or larger should be buried at least `12 inches below the stream liottom to allow natural stream bottom material to become established in the culvert following installation and to provide aquatic life passage iluring periods of low flow. If any of the existing pipes are perched, they shall be removed and replaced, and re-installed conectly, unless demonstrated that ttris is topographically unfeasible. � � 13. Heavy equipment should be operated from the bank rather than in the stream channel unless demonstrated by the applicant or its authorized agent to be unfeasible. All mechanized equipment operated neaz surface waters should be inspected and maintained regularly to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids �or other tctxic substances. 14. Summary of Compensatory tYlitigations Compensatory mitigation shall be the same as that approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers, as long as the mitigation required equals a ratio of 1:1 restoration or creation of lost wetland acres as described in 15A NCAC ZH.0506 (h)(6}, and consists of the following: Gregory J.

Ju y, 2004 -r s;� 13„�V•J� The NoRh Carolina Department of Transpo[tation (NCDO'I) will perform on-site mitigation for riverine bottomland hazdwood swamp at the [nterstate 85 (I-85) overpass of the Yadkin River in Rowan County. This miNgarion site occuis within Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) project I-2304AA. NCDOT will remove approximately 2.74 acres of existing bridge causeway fill in order to restore the underlying disturbed wetlands. WETLAND MTTIGATION GRADING The desi� of the wetland mitigation azea shall consist of undercut excavation of existing roadway Sll down to the alluvium soil layer. If the alluvium soil layer is encountered at an elevation above the adjacent existing wetland, excavation shall continue until the elevation matches the existing, adjacent wetland elevation. If the alluvium soil layer is encountered below the adjacent existing wetland elevation, a siity loam, sandy loam or muck shall be used to backfill these areas to match the existing wetland elevation. All eaccavated areas shall be ripped prior to placement of any backfill material and before planting of the site. The NCDOT Ptoject Development and Environmental Analysis, Office of Naturai Environment shall approve the design of the restoration site prior to construction. The Office of Natural Environment shall be contacted to provide construction oversight to ensure that the wetland mitigarion azea is constructed appropriately. VEGETATION PLANTING The restoration site will be planted with the following wetland tree species: sycamore (Ptatanus occidentalis), river birch (Betula nigra), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), American elm (Ulmus americana), black gum (Nyssa sylvaaca), and swamp chestnut oak (Quercus michauxii). The hazdwood tree species utilized shall be 18"-30" in size and shall be bare root seedlings that are at least one gowing season in age. Planting density shall be 680 seedlings per acre, which equates to a plant spacing of 8 feet on-center. MONITORING: Upon successful completion of construction, NCDOT will docume�t the following monitoring activities utilizing an annual report for the site, which will be distributed to the regulatory agc,mcies. �'V 1� ti � � HYDROLOGIC MONITORING While �no specific hydrological monitoring is proposed for this restoration site, elevations of restored areas will be verified during construction to match adjacent wetland elevations. VEGETATION SUCCESS CRTTERIA NCDOT shall monitor the restoration site utilizing two (2) fifty feet by fifty feet (50' x 50') monitoruig plots that will be established upon completion of the site grading and planting. - NCDOT shall monitor the site for a minimum of five years or until the site is deemed successful. A 320 stems per acre survival criterion for planted seedlings will be used to � detennine success for the first three years. The required survival criterion will decrease by 10% each yeaz after the third yeaz of vegetation monitoring (i.e., for an expected 290 stems per acre for year 4, and 260 stems per acre for year 5).

I have been told by our Structure Design Unit that the impact estimates for the permanent bridges is too low. They told me that 0.05 ac should be sufficient for each of the 3 permanent bridges (2 I-85 bridges & 1 US 70/29 bridge). That totals 0.15 ac of permanent surface water impacts & 0.1 ac of permanent wetland impacts (there are no wetlands below the US 70 bridge). We will mitigate £or the additional wetland impacts at the onsite wetland restoration area adjacent to Yadkin River.

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 Prac�c�s in order to protect surface w�ters standards: 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 Seiliment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Marcual. b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the secliment 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 Manudl. 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 Maning Manual. � � d. . A�y reclamation measures and implementation must comply. with th� rec�amarion in accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act 2. No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind sha11 occur in wedands, waters, or riparian areas beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the�.Application. All construcrion activities shall be performed so that no violations of sta.te water qualzty standazds, statutes, or rules occur. 3. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be plaeed in wetlands or waters to tlie maximum extent practieable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within 30 days after the nroject has been released. 4. Stornawater management shall be constructed in accordance with the hydraulic design plans submitted in the February 20, 2004 application. 5. The haaardous spill catch basins (I-2304AA Plan Sheet 9) shall be designed and located to afford ready access to maintenance and emer.gency response personnel and equipment. ■ The volwme of spill containment storage provided will be approximately 10,000 gallons plus the estimated runoff volume from rainfall intensiry equating to a twayeaz return period event. � ■ A means will be provided such that the normal free flow of runoff at the basin outlet can be interrupted to cause containment of hazardous runoff. This can be accomplished by providing a mechanical control gate or by consiructing a minimum c.ontrol section in the outlet channel. The mechanical gate altemative will generally be utilized in areas where normal operational activities.would allow close scrutiny and control, reducing the potential for problems with vandalism. ■ Maintenance plan"s for constructed basins shall be developed in accordance with Best Management Practices (BMPs) and good engineering practices. Additional guidance for properly maintaining containment basins can be found at 40 CFR Part 112, § 122.7, et al. (Spill Prevention Control and Countenmeasures). ■ Inspections of the hazardous spill catch basin and opening/shutting of the gate should be � performed annually at a minimum, and within six (6) months aftar a spill incident to ensure ini.eg:i�cy of the cateh basiga. � . ■. Repairs should occur in a timely manner. , Gregory J. Thorpe, Ph.D. §401 Water Quality Certification No. 3455 I-2304 AA and I-2304 BA ■� NCDOT should provide annually, a site location map of a11 hazardous spill catch basins and similar devices to Federal (i7SEPA, USCG), DFNR, State Emergency Response Coordinator, and all applicable county and urban center respo�se groups. ■ Signage indicating the presence af a hazardous spill catch basin shall be provided. 6. The outside wetland or water boundary as well as along the construction corridor within these boundaries approved under this authozization shall be cleazly marked by orange fabric fencing for the azeas that have been approved to infringe within the wetland or water prior to any land disturbing activities. . � 7. NCDOT and its contractors and/or agents shall not excavate, fill, or perform mechanized land clearing at any time in the construction or maintenance of this pzoject within waters and/or wetlands, except as authorized by this Certification, or any modification to this Certification. � There shall be no exca�ation from or waste disposal into jurisdictional wedands or waters associated with this Certification without appropriate modification. If this occurs, compensatory mitigation will be required since it is a direct impact from road construction activities. � 8. Excavation of stream crossings should be conducted in the dry unless demonstrated by the applicant or its authorized agent to be unfeasible. Sandbags, cofferdams, flexible pipe, or other diversion structures should be used to minimize excavation in flowing water. 9. Live or fresh concrete shall not come into contact with waters of the state until the concrete has hazdened. � . 10. Dsscharging hydroseeding *nixt�ues and �vashing out hydre�seeders and other e�upmenr in �r ad;ace�t te s•E:rf�e ��ie�s is s�i�tly prQ':aibite�. 11. The removal of vegetation in riparian areas should be minimized. NCDOT is encouraged to use existing on-site vegetation and materials for stream bank stabilization and to m;n;mi�� the use of rip rap. Riprap shall not be placed in the stream bottom. .Riparian v�getation, using native trees and shrubs, must be re-established within the construction limits of the project by the end of the � growing season following completion of construction to reestablish the riparian zone and to provide long-term erosion control. . . 12. Culverts that are less than 48-inch in diameter should be� buried to a depth equal to or greater than 20% of their size to allow for aquatic life passage. Culverts that are 48-inch diameter or lazger should be buried at least 12 inches below the stream tiottom to allow natural stream bottom material to become established in the culvert following installation�and to provide aquatic Iife passage during periods of low flow. If any of the existing pipes are perched, they shall be removed and replaced, and re-installed conectly, unless demonstrated that this is topographically unfeasible. 13. Heavy equipment should be operated from the bank rather than in the stream channel unless demonstrated by the applicant or its authorized agent to be unfeasible. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters should be inspected and maintained regularly to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids or other toxic substances. 14. Summary of Compensatory Mitigation,.� Compensatory mitigation shall be the same as that approved by the TlS Army Corps of Engineers, as long as the mitigatiori required equals a ratio of 1:1 restoration or creation of lost wetland acres as described in 15A NCAC 2H.0506 (h)(6), and � consists of the %llowing: ' , , Gregory J.

This mitigation site occurs within Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) project I=2304AA. NCDOT will remove approximately 2.74 • acres of ,.existing bridge causeway fill in order to restore the underlying disturbed wetlands. WETLAND MITIGATION GRADING The design of the wetland mitigation area shall consist of undercut excavation of existing roadway fill down to the alluvium soil layer. If the alluvium soil layer is encountered at an elevation above the adjacent existing wetland, excavation shall continue until the elevation matches the existing, adjacent wetland elevation. If the alluvium soil layer is encountered below the adjacent existing wetland elevation, a silty loam, sandy loam or muck sha11 bz us�d to backfili thes� areas to match the existing wztland elevation. All ex�.vat� a�zas s�a.li be ripped pri�r t� �iac�nent of�xy ba��ill matErial an� before planting of the siie. The NCDOT Project Development and Environmental Analysis, Office of Natural Environment shall approve the design of the restoration site prior to construction. The Office of Natural Environment shall be contacted to provide construction oversight to ensure that the wetland mitigation area is constructed appropriately. VEGETATION PLANTING The restoration site will be planted with the following wetland tree species: sycamore (Platanus oceidentalis), river birch (Betula nigra), green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica), Ameiican elm (Ulmus americana), black gum (Nyssa sylvatica), and swamp chesMut oak (Quercus michauxii). - � � . The hardwood tree species utilized shall be 18"-3Q" in size and shall be bare root seedlings that are at least one growing season in age. Planting density shall be 680 seedlings per acre, which equates to a plant spacing of 8 feet on-center. lVIONITQRINCa: Upon successful completion of construction, NCDOT will document the following monitoring activities.utilizing an annual report for the site, which will l�e distributed to the regulatory agencies. � � EIYDROLOGIC MOI�IITORING While no specific hydrolo�ical monitoring is proposed for this restoration site, elevations of restored areas will be verified during construction to match adjacent wetland elevations. VEGETATION SUCCESS CRITEI2Ia NCDOT shall monitor the restoration site utilizing two (2) fifty feet by fifty feet (50' x 50') monitoririg plots that will be established upon completion of the site grading and planting. NCDOT shall monitor the site for a minimum of five years or until the site is deemed successful. A 320 stems per acre survival criterion for planted seedlings will be used to determine success for the first three yeazs. The required survival criterion will decrease by 10% each yeaz after the third year of vegetation monitoring (i.e., for an expected 290 stems per acre for year 4, and 260 stems per acre for year 5). • . , , .

'Compen`� satory mitigation for impacts to 92Q.�acres of wetlands is required for the impacts associated with sites 1-8 for I-2304AD. Qur records indicate the total amount of wetland mitigation foc I2 04 an is 2.47 acces, with I.51 acres required I-2304 AC and 0.9b acres required for I2304 AD. 2.37 acres are impacts to riverine weilands, and these impacts w,ill be mitigated for on-site. The remaining 0.10 acres are non-riverine. We understand tha yQu have . chosen to pe orm compensatory mitigation for these impacts 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 Apri130, 2004 that they will assume responsibility for satisfying the federal Clean Water Act compensatory mitigation requirements far the above-referenced project, in accordance with the Tri-Party MOA signed on July 22, 2003 and the Dual-Party 1VIOA signed on April 12, 2004 Compensatory mitigation for 930 linear feet of impact to strearns is required. Our records indicate the total amount of stream mitigation for I230aAC and AD is 2940 Einear feet, with 3b6 linear feet required for site 9(I2304 AD), 930 linear feet required for sites 1-8 and IO (I2304 - AD), and i6441inear required for I-2304AC. `Ve 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 April 30, 2004 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 1�IOA signed on Tuly 22, 2003 and the Dua!- Pariy MOA signed on Aprii I2, 2004. Post-construction Stormwater shall be treated using appropriate best management practices {e.g., vegetated conveyances, constructed wetlands, detention ponds, etc.} prior to discharging to surface waters. - • � Uniess otherwise approved in this certification, placement of culverts and other structures in open waters and streams, shall be placed below the eIevation 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 stractures including temporary erosion control measures shail not be conducted in a manner that may resalt 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 NCDWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock or other limiting features encountered during construction; please contact NCDWQ for guidance on how to proceed and to determine whether or not a permit modification will be required. 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 e[evation and/or si[Is wliere appropriate. Widening the stream channel should be avoided. Stream channel widening at the intet or outlet end of structures typically decreases water velocity causing sediment deposition that requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage. Any rip rap in stream beds that has been authorized in this permit modification shall be embedded so that it does not impede aquatic passage. Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in criminal and/or civil penalties. This Certifcation shall become nuIl and void unless the above conditions are made conditions of the Federat 404 and/ar Coastal Area Management Act Permit.
