MEMORANDUM
TO: Tim Smith, Permit Coordinator, Asheville Office
U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
FROM: Ron Linville, Regional Coordinator
Habitat Conservation Program
DATE: April 2, 2003
SUBJECT: Review of an application by Doe Ridge Properties, Cabin Cove Subdivision,
Tributaries of Doe Fork and Howard Creek, Watauga County
The applicant is requesting a letter of concurrence from the North Carolina Wildlife
Resources Commission (NCWRC) to obtain a 404 permit from the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers. The NCWRC has reviewed information provided by the applicant, and field
biologists on our staff are familiar with habitat values of the project area. These comments are
provided in accordance with provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (33 U.S.C. 466 et. seq.)
and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d).
The applicant proposes to create a large lot development. Impacts are proposed for four
perennial stream crossings. Widths of the impacted streams vary from 6.5 feet to 10 feet. Total
impacts will be 225 linear feet of stream. Good wild trout populations are present. Both brook
and rainbow trout populations are found in the area. Five proposed Aa+ channels are proposed
for 385 linear feet of stream restoration.
Due to the size of stream widths, we prefer that the crossings be made using spanning
structures or bridges. However, based on the information provided by the applicant and our
knowledge of the range of trout in the project area, we do not believe this project will cause
significant effects to waters supporting trout providing the following conditions are implemented:
I . Instream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are
prohibited during the trout spawning seasons of October 15 through April 15 to
protect the egg and fry stages of trout.
2. Stringent erosion control measures should be installed where soil is disturbed and
maintained until project completion. Temporary or permanent herbaceous
vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within 5 days of ground disturbing
activities within the twenty-five (25) foot trout buffer to provide long-term
erosion control

April 2, 2003
3. Culverts 48" or larger should be buried approximately P into the streambed.
Culverts less than 48 inches in diameter should be buried to a depth equal to or
greater than 20% their size to allow for aquatic life passage. These
measurements must be based on natural thalweg depths. If bedrock is
encountered, the crossings should use bridging structures instead of using
explosives in order to maintain channel dimension. Where practicable, the
installation should be accomplished in a manner that prevents damming or drop
outlets on either end of the pipe in order to maintain aquatic life passage. The
upstream and downstream stream dimensions should not be modified.
4. Remaining jurisdictional waters and wetlands must be preserved in conservation
easements. We do not recommend breaking up conservation easements with
individual lot lines. Preservation as common area is preferred.
5. Native species should be used for streambank stabilization and shade.
6. If concrete will be used, work must be accomplished so that wet concrete does
not contact stream water. This will lessen the chance of altering the stream's
water chemistry and causing a fish kill. 1
7. Riprap use should be minimized. Riprap must not interfere with aquatic life
movement during seasonal low flow conditions.
8. The applicant should contact the Division of Water Quality at 336/771-4600 to
determine if a 401 Certification is needed for multiple crossings and the stream
restoration activities.
9. All stream restoration activities must use state-of--the-art bioengineering
techniques. A plan view should be provided to resource and regulatory agencies
for review and comment prior to work beginning.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project. If you have any
questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 336/769-9453.

Size of watershed draining to pond: Expected pond surface area:
VII. Impact Justification (Avoidance and Minimization)
Specifically describe measures taken to avoid the proposed impacts. It may be useful to provide
information related to site constraints such as topography, building ordinances, accessibility, and
financial viability of the project. The applicant may attach drawings of alternative, lower-impact
site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desired site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
To minimize impacts existing railroad grades were used to construct the new subdivision road.
Existing pipe length was extended to the new road width rather than creating all new piped
crossings Streams 1-4 are Qiped whereas stream 5 is proposed to be spanned by a bridge (25
)to further minimize impacts. No additional stream crossings are proposed beyond
foot minimum
that of the existing railroad grade Cabin Cove is also a proposed large lot subdivision.

VIII. Mitigation
DWQ - In accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .0500, mitigation may be required by the NC
Division of Water Quality for projects involving greater than or equal to one acre of impacts to
freshwater wetlands or greater than or equal to 150 linear feet of total impacts to perennial
streams.
USACE - In accordance with the Final Notice of Issuance and Modification of Nationwide
Permits, published in the Federal Register on March 9, 2000, mitigation will be required when
necessary to ensure that adverse effects to the aquatic 'environment are minimal. Factors
including size and type of proposed impact and function' and relative value of the impacted
aquatic resource will be considered in determining acceptability of appropriate and practicable
mitigation as proposed. Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include,
but are not limited to: reducing the size of the project; establishing and maintaining wetland
and/or upland vegetated buffers to protect open waters such as streams; and replacing losses of
aquatic resource functions and values by creating, restoring, enhancing, or preserving similar
functions and values, preferable in the same watershed.
If mitigation is required for this project, a copy of the mitigation plan must be attached in order
for USACE or DWQ to consider the application complete for processing. Any application
lacking a required mitigation plan or NCWRP concurrence shall be placed on hold as
incomplete. An applicant may also choose to review the current guidelines for stream restoration
in DWQ's Draft Technical Guide for Stream Work in North Carolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmszide.htm].
1. Provide a brief description of the proposed mitigation 'plan. The description should provide
as much information as possible, including, but not limited to: site location (attach directions
and/or map, if offsite), affected stream and river basin, type and amount (acreage/linear feet)
of mitigation proposed (restoration, enhancement, creation, or preservation), a plan view,
preservation mechanism (e.g., deed restrictions, conservation easement, etc.), and a
description of the current site conditions and proposed method of construction. Please attach
a separate sheet if more space is needed.
Stream Restoration/Enhancement is proposed for all impacted stream reaches based on
analysis of stability. Natural Channel Design and restoration is proposed in areas that appear
unstable and where construction can result in improved stability. Enhancement is proposed m
areas that remain moderately stable (riparian planting bank stabilization structures). see
attached narrative)
Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration
Program (NCWRP) with the NCWRP's written agreement. Check the box indicating that
Page 8 of 11
you would like to pay into the NCWRP. Please note that payment into the NCWRP must be
reviewed and approved before it can be used to satisfy mitigation requirements. Applicants
will be notified early in the review process by the 401/Wetlands Unit if payment into the
NCWRP is available as an option. For additional information regarding the application
process for the NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at t,ttp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/w!M/index.htm. If
use of the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide
the following information:
Amount of stream mitigation requested (linear feet): 0
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): 0
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres): 0

Project: Cabin Cove Subdivision Stream Restoration
Location: Watauga Co., NC
General:
Cabin Cove Subdivision is a large tract residential community development. Within the
development are proposed single-family residential homes. The proposed stream restoration
project is associated with five crossings (4 piped) of the subdivision road. The project is intended
to provide mitigation for existing impacts on this project.
Existing Rail-Road (RR) grade (pre-1940's) extends through the project site. Pipe lengths were
approximated from this previously existing RR grade. A county standard road was built within
the past 2 years through the project over this RR grade and existing piped crossings were
upgraded and lengthened resulting in piped and rip-rap impacts (see table & PCN report). These
newly existing pipes were determined to be undersized and are proposed to be either replaced or
additional pipes added (see project description).
Stream restoration is proposed to mitigate for the piped and rip-rap impacts noted above. Rip-rap
and washed stone will be removed and replaced with drop-pool structures to ensure stability. Any
detrimental obstructions to flow will also be removed (ie: stumps, boulder jumble, etc...).
Disturbed riparian areas will be restored with the planting of native vegetation to further stabilize
banks.
Five proposed Aa+ channels will be restored with a total linear footage of approximately 385
feet. The design is based on reference reach data collected from both on site (Stream 2 Cabin
Cove, upstream of impact area) and Sunalei Preserve (see Reference Reach Parameter
Spreadsheet). The reference reach streams used in the Cabin Cove design were selected based on
similarities in stream type, slope, and desired characteristics. The objective of the proposed
stream restoration is to provide stability, restore natural channel bedform characteristics, and re-
establish a vegetated buffer on all unstable stream corridors throughout the project site.
Existing Condition:
For permitting purposes the streams on the project site were numbered 1-5. The first piped
crossing after entering the subdivision entrance gate is Stream 1. Stream 2 is the next piped
crossing, and so on.
Stream 1 is an Aa+ with an average slope 34%. From the 48" piped discharge, approximately 35'
of the channel is littered with rip-rap and lacks channel definition, and profile stability.. The
lower, less steep portion of the channel is littered with washed debris including boulders and
stumps, buffer vegetation in this lower area has also been significantly disturbed. Approximately
115' of the channel and/or buffer is disturbed.
The next piped crossing, Stream 2, exists as a disturbed Aa+ with an average slope of 43%. The
existing pipe is 24" in diameter. From the pipe discharge, rip-rap litters the channel
approximately 20'. Boulders, stumps and other non-beneficial woody debris litter the channel
until it reaches the tree line. The channel lacks definition and profile stability until it reaches the
undisturbed tree line.
Stream 3 is an Aa+ channel with an average slope of 26%. The existing pipe is 24" in diameter.
From the pipe downstream, approximately 15' the channel has profile stability problems created
from washed out rip-rap and woody debris. Below this area the channel continues in a natural and
undisturbed state. Riparian buffer vegetation has been disturbed for approximately 90 below the
pipe.
Stream 4 exists as an Aa+ channel with an average slope of 54%. The existing pipe is 18" in
diameter. Rip-rap and shot rock litter the channel for approximately 25' below the pipe. The
channel appears to have been disturbed below the rip-rap for another 40 or 50 feet. Riparian
vegetation has been disturbed for approximately 85 feet.
The current road crossing over Stream 5 consists of a shelf of rip-rap and washed gravel over
bedrock. This area has been maintained in this barely passable state for years. No impact has
occurred at this location beyond the maintenance of the previously existing road bed. The rip-rap
and gravel area extends for approximately 25 feet below the bedrock.
Project Description:
All piped crossings are to be upgraded to meet county subdivision road standards. To mitigate
previous impacts to channels and riparian areas, stream restoration is proposed on streams 1-5
and will entail replacing unstable bed materials (rip-rap, boulder jumble, stumps, etc...) with
drop-pool structures to ensure profile stability. Also, all riparian areas will be restored with native
vegetation to ensure bank stability.
The proposed restoration was designed in accordance with reference reach data mentioned above.
To compensate for the flashy nature of these Aa+ streams the proposed channels will be slightly
oversized with increased depth and width to allow for high flows without bank failure. All
channels are to be restored as Aa+ drop-pool channels with large boulder grade control (step-pool
structures, see typical channel restoration plan). Cross-vane structures will be installed above all
new piped crossings to control grade and prevent headcutting upstream of the crossings. Riparian
zones will be restored on the upstream end of all crossings. The channels dimension, pattern, and
profile were designed in accordance with reference reach dimensionless ratios and also within
Rosgen's classification parameters. Below is a table describing existing and proposed conditions:

Proposed restoration on Stream 1 begins directly below the pipe extending approximately 115'
downstream. Washed out rip-rap will be replaced with step-pool and drop-pool structures (see
detail) creating a pool-pool spacing in accordance with reference reach parameters. Detrimental
obstructions to flow (boulders, stumps, etc...) will also be removed from the channel during
construction. The existing 48"x 60' pipe will be replaced by a 60" x 60' pipe in accordance with
local regulation.
Restoration begins on Stream 2 directly below the pipe, extending approximately 64'
downstream. The rip-rap, washed-out boulders, and non-beneficial woody debris will be
removed and replaced with step-pool structures to re-establish an appropriate channel bedform
sequence. The existing 24" x 40' pipe will remain as a base flow pipe with the addition of two
36" x 40' pipes to meet county standards (see typical channel restoration detail).
Stream 3 restoration begins below the road extending approximately 30'. Rip-rap will be
replaced with step-pool structures (see typical channel restoration detail) to ensure profile
stability. Restoration of the channel will then continue downstream beyond the disturbance with
the removal of non-beneficial woody debris and extensive riparian planting. The existing 24" x
40' pipe will remain as a base flow pipe with the addition of two 30" x 40' pipes in accordance
with local regulation.
Proposed restoration for Stream 4 extends from road approximately 85' downstream, to the
existing-undisturbed tree line. Rip-rap will be replaced with step-pool grade control (see typical
channel restoration detail) to establish correct pool-pool spacing in accordance with reference
reach parameters. A defined channel will replace the split, undefined existing channel. Excessive
obstructions to flow will be removed. The existing 18" x 60' pipe will remain as a base flow pipe
with the addition of two 30" x 60' pipes to meet county standards.
Stream 5 restoration extends from the existing road down-slope approximately 25'. Rip-rap and
washed stone will be removed and replaced with step-pool structures as necessary to ensure
profile stability. The proposed road will be shifted downstream and will cross the creek with a
proposed bridge no impacts anticipated at this location.
Bank Stabilization:
Throughout the Cabin Cove project many bank stabilizing measures will be implemented.
Following construction all disturbed/constructed areas will immediately be seeded with a
temporary rye/millet mix. Planting will continue with a natural seed mix, live stakes, and bare
root/container grown trees in all riparian areas (see typical planting plan). Disturbed/seeded
areas will be will be covered in erosion control fabric (where needed) to withstand erosion in high
slope areas. Sod mats will be used, when available, to promote rapid bank stability. Step-
pool/drop-pool structures will be constructed in steep sections and cross vanes in flatter sections
to stabilize the profile and take stress of the banks (see typical channel restoration details).
