Director Division of Water Quality January 30, 2006 DWQ Project # 04-1916 Burke County Mr. Malone McNeely Western Piedmont Community College 1001 Burkemont Avenue Morganton, NC.28655 Subject Property: Hunting Creek Project APPROVAL OF STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PLAN Dear Mr. McNeely: On December 16, 2005, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received the revised storm water management plan prepared by your engineer, Mr. Lee Kizer, of Western Piedmont Community College. This Plan has been reviewed and satisfies the storm water management conditions of the 401 Water Quality Certification issued on January 3, 2095. The structural storm water practices as approved by DWQ as well as drainage patterns must be maintained in perpetuity. No changes to the structural storm water practices shall be made without written authorization from the Division of Water Quality. Storm water easements shall be recorded for a distance of at least 10 feet on each side of all storm water conveyances on all lots containing these structures including future access for maintenance. The storm water easements shall allow for the ability to maintain the structures, perform corrective actions as described above and shall provide protection of the structures from potential alternations by future property owners. This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have any questions, please telephone Mr. Samuel A. Aghimien at 919-733-3574.

Response According to the original site plan for the Continuing Education Center, the project site consists of approximately 3.0 acres (incorrectly reported as 2.5 acres in my transmittal to you on November 28). With a total project area of 197 acres, this represents 1.5 percent of impervious surface. Request Please provide a copy of the Sedimentation and Erosion Control Plan approval for the project.

Response According to our architect who was the lead designer for the project, no PCN was submitted for the project since the location of the project did not involve any wetlands, buffer areas or other criteria that would have required the filing of a PCN. Apparently there is still confusion as to what we are requesting in our permit application. In attempt to further clarify the request, I will once again provide a basic project description: WPCC has a main campus and an East Campus (built in 2003) that is separated by Hunting Creek in Burke County. A map that shows the location of the two campuses is included as Exhibit B. The College wishes to install two eight-foot diameter culverts in Hunting Creek at the location shown on Exhibit B. The purpose of the culverts is to provide access for maintenance vehicles that must travel between the two campus locations. The area that is to be impacted by the construction of the culverts consists of less than 0.1 acres. The plans and specifications for the culverts, including a cross section and profile that shows the design provides for the passage of aquatic life have been sent to you previously. No other development, construction or any other land disturbing activity is involved with this project. We are simply requesting permission to install two culverts. Again, I trust the above responses and enclosed drawings provide the necessary information required to obtain the permit to install the culverts. If however, you should need additional information or have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Regards, W.

Request Please provide cross section details showing the provisions for aquatic life passage. Response The cross section of the proposed culverts and a longitudinal profile are shown on drawing #2 enclosed. The installation of the culverts will restore the stream channel to it's previous condition and allow for lower velocities along the reach and a clay/silt bottom that is consistent with the natural conditions that exist in Hunting Creek. Request Please provide detail for the storm water management practices as required by GC 3402. Response The proposed culvert will access the WPCC East Campus, which consists of 189 +- acres of undeveloped farm land and a 3.73 acre tract that contains our new Continuing Education Center. A storm water management detail and sedimentation and erosion control plan for the Continuing Education Center was submitted to NCDENR and approved in 2003 as part of the construction drawings submittal for the project. A copy of the storm water management detail is included for your review (drawing #5). 1001 Burkemont Avenue * Morganton.

Response The 3.73 acre tract that contains the Continuing Education Center has approximately 2.5 acres of impervious surface. Assuming a 1" rainfall and a runoff coefficient of 0.9, approximately 0.1875 acre*feet of runoff would be expected, an increase of 0.125 acre*ft over the pre-construction open grass surface. All of the runoff is diverted to a single rip- rap lined outlet as shown on drawing #5, and then to level overland flow, eventually to a 1.3 acre pond as shown on drawing #6. Due to the configuration of the stormwater system, the location of the pond, and the large area below the pond, there will be absolutely no adverse impact on Hunting Creek or any of it's tributaries as a result of the installation of the culverts. Request Please indicate all stormwater outlets on the site plan Response All stormwater outlets are shown on drawing #5 and #6. I trust the above responses and enclosed drawings provide the necessary information required to obtain the permit to install the culverts.

Diffuse Flow All constructed stormwater conveyance outlets shall be directed and maintained as diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected stream buffers such that it will not re-concentrate before discharging into a stream. If this is not possible, it may be necessary to provide stormwater facilities that are considered to remove nitrogen. This may require additional approval from this Office. 7. Written Stormwater Management Plan Written stormwater management plans must be implemented and the stormwater management facilities shall be constructed and operational before any permanent building is occupied at the subject site. The structural stormwater practices as well as drainage patterns must be maintained in perpetuity. No changes to the structural stormwater practices shall be made without written authorization from the Division of Water Quality. 8. Turbidity Standard The turbidity standard of 50 NTUs (Nephelometric Turbidity Units) shall not be exceeded as described in 15 A NCAC 2B. .0200. Appropriate sediment and erosion control practices must be used to meet this standard. 9. No Impacts Beyond those in Application 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 Pre- construction Notification. All construction activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of sediment and erosion control Best Management Practices, shall be performed so that no violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur. Western Piedmont Community College Page 4 of 5 January 3,,2005: 10. Deed Notifications Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all retained jurisdictional wetlands, waters and protective buffers in order to assure compliance for future wetland, water and buffer impact. These mechanisms shall be put in place prior to impacting any wetlands, waters and/or buffers approved for impact under this Certification Approval and Authorization Certificate. A sample deed notification can be downloaded from the 401/Wetlands Unit web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. The text of the sample deed notification may be modified as appropriate to suit to this project. 11. Culvert Installation Culverts required for this project shall be installed in such a manner that the original stream profiles are not altered. Existing stream dimensions (including the cross section dimensions, pattern, and longitudinal profile) must be maintained above and below locations of each culvert. Culverts shall be designed and installed to allow for aquatic life movement as well as to prevent head cutting of the streams. If any of the existing pipes are or become perched, the appropriate stream grade shall be re-established or, if the pipes installed in a perched manner, the pipes shall be removed and re-installed correctly. Culvert(s) shall not be installed in such a manner that will cause aggradation or erosion of the stream up or down stream of the culvert(s). Existing stream dimensions (including the cross section dimensions, pattern and longitudinal profile) shall be maintained above and below locations of each culvert. Therefore, you must provide plans with adequate details that indicate that the current stability of the stream will be maintained or enhanced. You must receive written approval from this Office for the above plans before the culvert(s) is installed. Culvert(s) must be installed according to approved plans. The establishment of native, woody vegetation and other soft stream bank stabilization techniques must be used where practicable instead of rip rap or other bank hardening methods. If rip-rap is necessary, it shall not be placed in the stream bed, unless specifically approved by the Division of Water Quality. Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in criminal and/or civil penalties. The authorization to proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application and as authorized by this Certification, shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit. Western Piedmont Community College Page 5 of 5 January 3, 2005: If you do not accept any of the conditions of this Certification (associated with the approved wetland or stream impacts), you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition, which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing. This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act.

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. Page 9 of 12 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 bttp://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/stnnizide.htnil . 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. No mitigation required. 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Carolina Wetlands Restoration Program (NCWRP). Please note it is the applicant's responsibility to contact the NCWRP at (919) 733-5208 to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior to submittal of a PCN.
