All work shall be performed "IN THE DRY" using a coffer dam to create a dry work area. Trbitidy curtains to be used around work area to prevent turbidity. Repair Existing Seawall (85 LF +/-) using like kind materials. Hand work only. Furnish and install Turbidity Curtains around work area to maintain Water Quality. No disturbance within existing Vegetated Trout Buffer. See attached Sheet C5 for location of work. Page 4 of 13 PCN Form — Version 1.3 December 10, 2008 Version 3e. Describe the overall project in detail, including the type of equipment to be used: 1.0 Remove and Replace approximately 275 +/- linear feet of existing Seawall. New Seawall to be in accordance with Sheet C1 through C5. All work shall be performed "IN THE DRY" using a coffer dam to create a dry work area. Permanent Toe Apron shall not exceed 25 cubic yards meeting the following requirements; (a) The quantity of discharged material and the volume of area excavated do not exceed 25 cubic yards below the plane of the ordinary high water mark or the high tide line; (b) The discharge will not cause the loss of more than 1/10 -acre of waters of the United States; and (c) The discharge is not placed for the purpose of a stream diversion. 2.0 Repair Existing Seawall (85 LF +/-) using like kind materials. Hand work only. No disturbance within existing Vegetated Trout Buffer. Provide Turbidity Curtains around work area to maintian water quality. See attached Sheet C5 for location of work. To comply with Water Quality requirements, the Seawall Replacement work will be performed in the dry. This will be accomplished by installing a temporary coffer dam around the proposed work area, or by scheduling the work during the upcoming lake draw down. Where a coffer dam is used, the work area will be dewatered by pumping. All dewatering discharge shall have a turbidity of not more than 10 NTUs above background or as otherwise specified in DWQ's Turbidity Standards (15A NCAC 02B.0211(3.)(k.)). To satisfy the required turbidity limit, the dewatering pump discharge shall be filtered through a Bag Filtration Unit equal to Model BF -400 from Rain -for -Rent with a 100 to 1 micron nominal rating (P.O.C. at Rain -for -Rent is Jeremy at 704-393-3345). The turbidity level of all discharge shall be monitored with calibrated turbidity meters and the filtration equipment shall be adjusted as necessary to insure compliance with Water Quality Standards. The water around the dredging areas shall likewise be monitored with calibrated turbidity meters and the turbidity curtains shall be adjusted as necessary to insure compliance with Water Quality Standards. Uncured concrete shall not be allowed to come into direct contact with surface waters. This will be accomplished by establishing a "dry work area" as described above. "High Early" cementious material shall be in the stone work to minimize curing time. Water Quality around the work areas shall be monitored with calibrated turbidity meters. The coffer dams and turbidity curtains shall be adjusted as necessary to insure compliance with Water Quality Standards. 4. Jurisdictional Determinations 4a.

The Contractor shall coordinate all work with the Lake Toxaway Operations Manager at the IPM Lake Toxaway Office. 2.0 Contractor shall verify and establish all Elevations prior to beginning work. Contractor shall obtain all required permits prior to beginning work. Contractor shall locate all property boundaries prior to beginning work. Contractor shall locate, flag and protect all underground utilities prior to beginning work. Do not locate any part of the work within any right—of—way, set back, encroachment, easement, trout stream buffer zone (or other buffer zone or set back), unless permitted to do so. Do not allow fresh concrete to contact lake waters. 3.0 No part of the new work shall extend the property line or beyond the shoreline into the waters of Lake Toxaway. 3.1 The New Seawall shall be placed in the same footprint, location and alignment as the existing Seawall. 3.3 A 'DRY WORK AREA" is required for the performance of this work. See Paragraph entitled 'DRY WORK AREA". 4.0 As a result of the engineering design, a number of observations, conclusions and recommendations are provided. It should be noted that the observations, conclusions and recommendations stated herein are based on information available as of this writing. It is conceivable that additional information may be forthcoming which bears on these observations, conclusions and recommendations. The right is reserved, therefore, to review and modify all observations, conclusions, and recommendations at any future point in time should, in fact, additional information become available. The comments, recommendations, and opinions provided below are applicable only to the specific site features evaluated during our inspection. 4.1 All other features of work that may be required, but not shown herein, shall be designed by others. No geotechnical investigation was performed. By accepting this report, you and any others to whom it is distributed, agree to a strict limitation of liability for Terry E. Allen PE, T.E. ALLEN ENGINEERING, P.C., and its employees to an amount not to exceed the fee paid in hand. 5.0 TROUT STREAM BUFFER REQUIREMENTS — No land disturbing activity during periods of construction or improvements to land shall be permitted in proximity to a lake or natural watercourse unless a buffer zone is provided along the margin of the watercourse of sufficient width to confine visible siltation within the twenty—five percent (25%) of the buffer zone nearest the land disturbing activity. Waters that have been classified as trout waters by the Environmental Management Commission shall have on undisturbed buffer zone 25 feet wide or of sufficient width to confine visible siltation within the twenty—five percent (25%) of the buffer zone nearest the land disturbing activity, whichever is greater. Provided, however, that the Sedimentation Control Authority may approve plans which include land disturbing activity along trout waters when the duration of said disturbance would be temporary and the extent of said disturbance would be minimal. All tributaries to trout streams (named and unnamed) take on the trout classification, unless the tributaries have another specified water quality classification. 5.1 The 25 foot trout buffer zone shall be measured from the top of bank. 5.2 The disturbance is temporary and minimal when the disturbance is limited to a maximum of 10% of the buffer zone within the tract such that no more than 100 linear feet of disturbance occurs in every 1000 feet of buffer zone. These disturbances can be approved by the NCDENR Land Quality Regional Office staff on an Erosion Control Plan and no variance is needed. Most of these types of disturbances are for such activities such as bridge construction, culvert installation, and installation of sewer and utility lines perpendicular to the trout stream. 5.3 Longer lengths of the buffer zone may be disturbed with the approval of the NCDENR Division of Land Resources Director. 6.0 TROUT BUFFER WAIVER. If during the course of the work it is determined that more that 10% of the trout buffer may be disturbed, the Contractor shall prepare and submit a Variance request pursuant to 15A NCAC 04B.0125. This variance shall be made to the NCDEQ Division of Land Resources. PRELIMINARY DO NOT © Copyright 2017 Terry Allen PE, T.E. ALLEN ENGINEERING USE FOR PC, Terry E. Allen Engineer.
