Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Mode:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed
below, to place fill within or otherwise impact 302 linear feet of shoreline for the purpose
of stabilization at the subject property, as described within your application received by
the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on November 28, 2005. After reviewing your
application, we have decided that the impacts are covered by General Water Quality
Certification Number(s) 3492 (GC3492). The Certification (s) allows you to use
Permit(s) NW30 when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). In
addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required federal, state or
local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion
and Sediment Control, Non-discharge, and buffer regulations. Also, this approval to
proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted
in your application shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If
you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new
application. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this
Certification and approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all
conditions. If total fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre of wetland
or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in
15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in
the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:

1. Impacts Approved
The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all of the other specific
and general conditions of this Certification (or Isolated Wetland Permit) are met.
No other impacts are approved including incidental impacts:
Amount Plan Location or Reference
Ap roved (Units
Shoreline 1 302 (linear feet) A
2. Erosion & Sediment Control Practices
Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all
specifications governing the proper design, installation and operation and
maintenance of such Best Management Practices in order to protect surface
waters standards:
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be
designed, installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the most
recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning
and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and
erosion control measures must be such that they equal, or exceed, the
requirements specified in the most recent version of the North Carolina
Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices shall be maintained on
all construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects, including
contractor-owned or leased borrow pits associated with the project.
c. For borrow pit sites, the erosion and sediment control measures must be
designed, installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the most
recent version of the North Carolina Surface Mining Manual.
d. The reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the
reclamation in accordance with the requirements of the Sedimentation
Pollution Control Act.
3. No Waste, Spoil, Solids, or Fill of Any Kind
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.
Steve T. Mode
Page 3 of 5
January 25, 2006
4. No Sediment & Erosion Control Measures w/n Wetlands or Waters
Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters
to the maximum extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control
devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the
natural grade restored within six months of the date that the Division of Land
Resources has released the project.
5. Certificate of Completion
Upon completion of all work approved within the 401 Water Quality Certification
or applicable Buffer Rules, and any subsequent modifications, the applicant is
required to return the attached certificate of completion to the 401/Wetlands Unit,
North Carolina Division of Water Quality, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC,
27699-1650.
6. Riprap Installation
All banks shall be laid back at a 2:1 (length : height) slope and riprap applied at
the water / land interface (at full pool). Riprap shall be placed as a linear
protective measure upon the regarded slopes. Stone used in stabilization shall
be a random size, varying from Class B riprap up to 6 feet in diameter to provide.
additional wildlife habitat. All exposed soils above the Riprap stabilized area
shall be replanted in accordance with the attached Guidelines for Riparian
Buffer Restoration. This authorization shall in no way be construed as allowing
the installation of a bulkhead or seawall.
7. Heavy Equipment
Heavy equipment should be operated from the bank whenever possible. All
mechanized equipment operated near surface waters should be inspected and
maintained regularly to prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels,
lubricants, hydraulic fluids or other toxic materials. Equipment used in stream
channel must be clean, new or low hour equipment.
8. 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 being discharged. 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.

January 25, 2006
9. Catawba Buffer Tree Protection
No trees shall be removed from Zone 1 of the Catawba Buffer unless they are
directly within the construction access corridor. If trees are removed, forested
vegetation shall be re-established within the construction access or other
temporary impact area occurring in the protected buffer zone within the next
growing season following construction of the project.
10. Disturbed banks and a 25-foot vegetated zone, must be restored along the
shoreline to natural riparian conditions with native trees and shrubs (e.g., silky
dogwood, rhododendron, dog hobble, red maple, silky willow, tag alder, black
willow, sycamore) to provide long-term bank stability and stream shading. Note,
silky dogwood, silky willow and black willow can be planted as live stakes
collected during the dormant growing season. Cuttings should be randomly
planted on four (4) foot centers from the waters edge to the top of the bank.
Trees should be planted on ten (10) to twelve (12) foot centers. Stream banks in
these areas should also be seeded with a native annual and perennial seed mix
with a temporary nursery crop of wheat, millet or other grain.
10. 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.
12. Deed Restrictions
Deed Restrictions 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.
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.

reviewed for administrative as well as technical details. If you elect to place this project on hold,
please ask the applicant to provide your requested information to both the Central Office in

procedure as we slowly transition to electronic applications. Please apprise me of any
complications you encounter, whether related to workload, processing times, or lack of a "second
