VIFLANDS AND STORMWATER BRANG,i
With this transmittal and attachments, we are submitting for your review, a Pre-
Construction Notification (PCN) for a small project located on Yellow Creek in
Graham County, NC. We request that this work be authorized under Nationwide
Permit 13 for Bank Stabilization activities.
The proposed project will consist of removing two 72 inch corrugated metal pipe
culverts that are in poor condition with eroding stream banks, grading of the stream
banks to a 2:1 slope, installation of non-woven filter fabric and rip rap on the stream
banks, and then installing a steel bridge across the creek.
Enclosed are 7 copies of the following items associated with this PCN:
¦ Engineering Form 4345
¦ Plan & Section - Erosion at Double 72" Culverts
¦ Plan & Section - Stream bank Stabilization at Proposed Bridge
¦ Vicinity Map
¦ Check in the amount of $240
The area to be impacted is approximately 60 linear feet of stream bank which will be
excavated to a 2:1 slope and stabilized with rip rap. No work shall be done to the
stream channel bottom except where the culverts are removed. The existing
culverts are approximately 20 feet in length, and earth/stone backfill between and
beside the culverts will be removed as part of the proposed work.
In accordance with the requirements of a PCN, there is no impact or loss of
wetlands associated with this activity, the project is not within or near a designated
critical habitat, nor will it affect any historic property.
You may contact me at 704/422-5622 if you have any questions regarding this
PCN.
Sincerely,
9691190
