IN REPLY REFER TO
Regulatory Branch
SUBJECT: Nationwide Permit No. 14
City of Havelock
Attention: Mr. Ralph Kennedy, City Manager
Post Office Drawer 368
Havelock, North Carolina 28532
Dear Mr. Kennedy:
Thank you for your inquiry of March 3, 1987, regarding your
plans to develop an approximate 50-acre parcel of property located
on the south side of Highway 101 just east of the Roger Bell
Elementary School in Havelock, Craven County, North Carolina.
During your onsite meeting with Mr. Lee Pelej of the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency and Mr. David Baker of my staff,
it was determined that your 60-foot ROW entrance driveway would
involve the discharge of fill material into a tributary of
Clubfoot Creek as well as its adjacent wooded wetlands. The
remaining acreage,,.__dominated by a young loblolly pine stand, is
not subject to our Section 404, Clean Water Act, regulatory
jurisdiction.
For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory
Program, Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330,
published in the Federal Register on November 13, 1986, lists
nationwide permits. A "minor road crossing fill" is defined as a
crossing that involves the discharge of less than 200 cubic yards
of fill material below the plane of ordinary high water.
Authorization was provided for minor road crossing fills including
all attendant features, both temporary and permanent, that are
part of a single and complete project for crossing of a non-tidal
waterbody, provided that the crossing is culverted, bridged or
otherwise designed to prevent the restriction of, and to withstand
expected high flows and provided further that discharges into any
wetlands adjacent to the waterbody do not extend beyond 100 feet
on either side of the ordinary high water mark of that waterbody.
.

-2-
For this nationwide permit to be valid, you must comply with
the following conditions:
a. Any discharge of dredged or fill material will not occur
in the proximity of a public water supply.
b. The activity will not jeopardize a threatened or
endangered species as identified under the Endangered Species Act,
or destroy or adversely modify the cultural habitat of such
species.
c. The activity will not significantly disrupt the movement
of those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody.
d. Any discharge of dredged or fill material will consist of
suitable material free from toxic pollutants.
e. Any structure or fill will be properly maintained.
f. If the activity may adversely affect historic properties
which the National Park Service has listed on, or determined
eligible for listing on, the National Register of Historic Places,
or if significant historic properties are encountered before or
during work, the permittee will notify the District Engineer.
g. An individual State water quality certification must be
obtained or waived. Conditions of certification will be
considered to be special conditions of the Federal nationwide
permit.
h. The following management practices will be followed to the
maximum practical extent:
(1) Discharges of dredged or fill material into waters of
the United States will be avoided or minimized through the use of
other practical alternatives.
(2) Discharges in spawning areas during spawning seasons
will be avoided.
(3) Discharges will not restrict or impede the movement
of aquatic species indigenous to the waters or the passage of
normal or expected high flows or cause the relocation of the
waters .

-3-
(4) If the discharge creates an impoundment of water,
adverse impacts on the aquatic system caused by the accelerated
passage of water and/or the restriction of its flow will be
minimized.
(5) Discharge in wetland areas will be avoided.
(6) Heavy equipment working in wetlands will be placed on
mats.
(7) Discharges into breeding areas for migratory
waterfowl will be avoided.
(8) All temporary fills will be removed in their
entirety.
The District Engineer has determined that the individual and
cumulative adverse effects of your work on the environment will be
minimal. Your work is authorized by nationwide permit provided it
is accomplished in strict accordance with the preceding
conditions. Please be aware that this authorization does not
relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any required State or
local approval.
If you have--:questions, please contact David Baker, Regulatory
Branch, telephone [phone].

nationwide permits. A "minor road crossing fill" is defined as a
crossing that involves the discharge of less than 200 cubic yards
of fill material below the plane of ordinary high water.
Authorization was provided for minor road crossing fills including
all attendant features, both temporary and permanent, that are
part of a single and complete project for crossing of a non-tidal
waterbody, provided that the crossing is culverted, bridged or
otherwise designed to prevent the restriction of, and to withstand
expected high flows and provided further that discharges into any
wetlands adjacent to the waterbody do not extend beyond 100 feet
on either side of the ordinary high water mark of that waterbody.

For this nationwide permit to be valid, you must comply with
the following conditions:
a. Any discharge of dredged or fill material will not occur
in the proximity of a public water supply.
b. The activity will not jeopardize a threatened or
endangered species as identified under the Endangered Species Act,
or destroy or adversely modify the cultural habitat of such
species.
c. The activity will not significantly disrupt the movement
of those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody.
d. Any discharge of dredged or fill material will consist of
suitable material free from toxic pollutants.
e. Any structure or fill will be properly maintained.
f. If the activity may adversely affect historic properties
which the National Park Service has listed on, or determined
eligible for listing on, the National Register of Historic Places,
or if significant historic properties are encountered before or
during work, the permittee will notify the District Engineer.
g. An individual State water quality certification must be
obtained or waived. Conditions of certification will be
considered to be special conditions of the Federal nationwide
permit.
h. The following management practices will be followed to the
maximum practical extent:
(1) Discharges of dredged or fill material into waters of
the United States will be avoided or minimized through the use of
other practical alternatives.
(2) Discharges in spawning areas during spawning seasons
will be avoided.
(3) Discharges will not restrict or impede the movement
of aquatic species indigenous to the waters or the passage of
normal or expected high flows or cause the relocation of the
waters .

(4) If the discharge creates an impoundment of water,
adverse impacts on the aquatic system caused by the accelerated
passage of water and/or the restriction of its flow will be
minimized.
(5) Discharge in wetland areas will be avoided.
(6) Heavy equipment working in wetlands will be placed on
mats.
(7) Discharges into breeding areas for migratory
waterfowl will be avoided.
(8) All temporary fills will be removed in their
entirety.
The District Engineer has determined that the individual and
cumulative adverse effects of your work on the environment will be
minimal. Your work is authorized by nationwide permit provided it
is accomplished in strict accordance with the preceding
conditions. Please be aware that this authorization does not
relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any required State or
local approval.
