APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Meyer:
CNL Realty and Development Corporation has our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to
place permanent fill in 125 linear feet of stream and in 0.059 acre of wetlands in order to upgrade and
lengthen seven existing road crossings and to construct one new road crossing, and to place permanent fill in
0.007 acre of wetlands in order to increase the buildable area of one lot. These impacts are to occur on the
proposed residential subdivision located at the Broyhill Property on Holloway Mountain Road near Blowing
Rock in Watauga County, as described in your application received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
on June 26, 2006. After reviewing your application, we have determined that this fill is covered by General
Water Quality Certification Numbers 3402 and 3494, which can be viewed on our web site at
hqp://www.ncwaterguality.org/wetlands.html. These Certifications allow you to use Nationwide Permit
Numbers 39 and 3 respectively when they are issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. In addition, you
should secure any other applicable federal, state or local permits before you proceed with your project,
including (but not limited to) those required by Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge, and Water
Supply Watershed regulations. Also, this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 permits expire
unless otherwise specified in the General Certifications.
This approval is valid only for the purpose and design that you have described in your application. If you
change your project, you must notify us in writing, and you maybe required to send us anew application for a
new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of the Certifications and
approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total wetland fill for this
project (now or in the future) exceeds one acre, or total fill to perennial streams equals or exceeds 150 linear
feet, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). For this approval
to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certifications, as well as the additional
conditions listed below:
1. The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all other specific and general conditions of these
Certifications are met. No other impacts, including incidental impacts, are approved:

2. Instream work and land disturbance within a 25-foot wide buffer zone on either side of the streams are
prohibited during the trout spawning season of October 15`h through April 15th in order to protect the
egg and fry stages of trout.
I Appropriate sediment and erosion control measures which equal or exceed those outlined in the most
recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual or the
North Carolina Surface Mining Manual (available from the Division of Land Resources at NCDENR
regional offices or the central office), whichever is more appropriate, shall be designed, installed and
maintained properly to assure compliance at all times with the North Carolina water quality standards
that are applicable to Class C waters as described in 15A NCAC 02B.0211 Fresh Surface Water Quality
Standards For Class C Waters and with the North Carolina water quality standards that are applicable to
Outstanding Resource Waters as described in 15A NCAC 02B .0225 Outstanding Resource Waters.
Such measures must equal or exceed the requirements specified in the most recent version of the North
Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. These measures must be maintained on all
construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) sites, including contractor owned and leased
borrow pits, which are associated with this project.
4. 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 measures in wetlands or waters is
unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within six months of the date that the
project is completed or, if applicable, within six months of the date that the project is released by the
North Carolina Division of Land Resources.
5. No waste, spoils, 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.
6. Where riprap is required for energy dissipation and scour protection, it shall be limited to the minimum
dimensions specified by appropriate engineering calculations. Riprap may only be used below the
Mr. Mark Meyer
Page 3, DWQ# 06-1047

normal high water level. The original grade and elevation of the stream's cross-section must be
maintained. Riprap placed in the stream bottom must be inserted'into the bottom matrix to a depth
sufficient to provide the thickness of riprap required for scour protection. The elevation of the stream
bottom must not be increased by the placement of riprap. Placement of riprap must not result in
destabilization of the streambed or banks upstream or downstream of any crossing.
7. All construction activities associated with this project shall minimize built-upon surface area, direct
stormwater runoff away from surface waters, and incorporate best management practices to minimize
water quality impacts. If concrete is used with any fill material, it shall not be allowed to come in
contact with surface waters until it has cured. If any stormwater must be collected for discharge into a
stream channel, it shall not enter the stream as .a point source, but shall be slowed and discharged as
sheet flow prior to entering the riparian buffer on either side of the stream.
8. Upon finishing the project, the Applicant shall fill out and return the enclosed "Certificate of
Completion" to notify NCDWQ when all work included in the §401 Certification has been completed.
This certificate should be returned to the Wetlands/401 Certification Unit of the NC Division of Water
Quality at the address listed on the form. Along with the Certificate of Completion, please send
photographs upstream and downstream of each culvert site to document correct installation.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, 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.

SUBJECT: Review of an application for Broyhill Property (CNL Realty & Development Corp.),
Boone Fork and Cold Prong (Class C-Trout, ORW), DWQ NO. 20061045, 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 project is to develop a large tract of land for a subdivision (20% imperviousness). Permanent impacts
of 125 linear feet are proposed for nine (9) road crossings. Wetland impacts will be 0.066 acres.
Rainbow and brown trout are known for these waters. Rainbow and Brown trout are present in area
streams and waters.
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 direct effects to waters supporting trout if
properly accomplished. Therefore, we do not object to the project providing the following non-prioritized
conditions are followed:
L 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. Sediment and erosion control measures shall adhere to the design standards for sensitive
watersheds (15A NCAC 413.0124).
3. Bridges are recommended for all permanent roadway crossings of streams, floodplains and
associated wetlands to eliminate the need to fill and culvert active floodplains. Bridges should be
the standard practice where significant natural resources like trout, listed species, or site

limitations like bedrock exist. Floodplain capacities and floodplain functions must be maintained
with bridges and culverts. If culverts must be used instead of bridges, culverts should be
designed and installed/retrofitted to allow passage of aquatic organisms. Culverts 48" or larger
must be buried at least a foot (12") below the streambed. Culverts less than 48 inches diameter
must be buried to a depth equal to or greater than twenty (20) percent their size to provide aquatic
life passage. These measurements must be based on natural thalweg depths. Culverts should be
situated so that no channel realignment or widening occurs. Widening of the stream channel at
the inlet or outlet of structures usually causes a decrease in water depth and velocity resulting in
increased sedimentation and diminished aquatic life passage. Where multiple barrels are used,
the base flow barrel must be installed as indicated above while additional barrels should be placed
so that their bottoms are located on the active bank full elevation. These bankful barrels must be
connected to active floodplain benches to provide natural dimensions for the base flow channel
with sufficient water depth during low or normal flows to accommodate movement of aquatic
species. Natural stream channel dimensions must be maintained or provided/restored. Flat
concrete aprons between wing-walls must not be used. Riprap must not be placed in the
streambed or in a manner to impeded aquatic life movement during low flow or drought
conditions. If culverts are long and/or sufficient slopes exist, alternating baffles should be
provided in a manner that conforms to channel bends upstream and downstream, mimics natural
meanders, prevents upstream scour and downstream deposition, moves typical bed load materials,
and provides resting areas and passage for aquatic species.
4. If any concrete will be used, work must be accomplished so that wet concrete does not contact
stream water.
5. Any future or additional impacts should be acknowledged and tallied towards mitigation
requirements as appropriate pursuant to Clean Water Act requirements.
6. All remaining jurisdictional waters and wetlands should be permanently preserved as undisturbed
forested buffer common areas by conservation easements. For waters not supporting listed
species, we recommend 50' intermittent and 100' perennial buffers.
7. Although not indicated as an impact, ponds associated with the project should be offline. Any
permitted inline ponds/lakes should include provision of a cold water withdrawal with minimum
flow release of the 7Q10, preferably greater. It is our understanding that Boone Fork Creek is
currently diverted around the large dam on the site. NCWRC supports maintaining this dam
bypass for aquatic life and trout passage.
8. Any inline ponds should be designed and constructed with coldwater releases (see
http•//wANw ncwildlife or,g-/pal 1 CommInf6Contacts/p.Rl ld4 Lpdfl. Re-aerated discharges
should be provided below dam structures.
9. If a golf course is anticipated for the site, the course should be planned and permitted
concurrently as-our comments and recommendations-will vary substantially. -
10. All impacts from stream crossings, dams and inundation activities should be documented and
thoroughly evaluated.
11. If appropriate, pursuant to federal law, an inventory of listed species should be provided for
federally endangered and threatened species known for the general area. If any are determined to
be present, additional fish and wildlife consultations should occur.
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.

RE: Broyhill Property
Nationwide Permits 3 and 39 Application a
Watauga County, North Carolina
Steve/Daryl:
The purpose of this letter is to request written authorization for stream impacts under
Nationwide Permits 3 and 39 for the project known as the Broyhill Property in Watauga
County, North Carolina. The project proposes permanent impacts associated with nine
road crossings with a total of 125 linear feet of new stream impacts and 0.066 acres of
new wetland impacts.
The attached USGS topographical maps show the location of the project. Impacts are
shown on the attached site plan map. The proposed impacts are for road crossings to
access a proposed residential development and one lot fill area. The property has been
considered for a golf course in the past but the development group that will be
proceeding with the project have no plans for a golf course. There are potential stream
and wetland restoration and enhancement opportunities on site. We are currently
initializing contact with the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program to discuss
these potential opportunities further.
The land planners will be developing a stringent stormwater management plan to meet
local county requirements since Boone Fork and Cold Prong are classified as ORW
waters. The site will contain less than 20% impervious surface and is being developed
in such a way to keep the majority of the built upon areas further away from Boone
Fork than legally required. The lake that was permitted back in late 2005 under a

Nationwide Permit 3 is the central amenity of the project and therefore water quality is
of absolute importance.
A Corps stream channel data form for the main stream on site is included within this
application. for your reference. The North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NC DWQ)
classifies Boone Fork and Cold Prong as class °C", "Tr", "ORW" waters. A copy of this

III. Project Information
Attach a vicinity map clearly showing the location of the property with respect to local
landmarks such as towns, rivers, and roads. Also provide a detailed site plan showing property
boundaries and development plans in relation to surrounding properties. Both the vicinity map
and site plan must include a scale and north arrow. The specific footprints of all buildings,
impervious surfaces, or other facilities must be included. If possible, the maps and plans should
include the appropriate USGS Topographic Quad Map and NRCS Soil Survey with the property
boundaries outlined. Plan drawings, or other maps may be included at the applicant's discretion,
so long as the property is clearly defined. For administrative and distribution purposes, the
USACE requires information to be submitted on sheets no larger than 11 by 17-inch format;
however, DWQ may accept paperwork of any size. DWQ prefers full-size construction
drawings rather than a sequential sheet version of the full-size plans. If full-size plans are
reduced to a small scale such that the final version is illegible, the applicant will be informed that

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. Stream crossings are needed
to access the proposed development. Impacts have been minimized by utilizing existing road
crossings at every road crossing but one..
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 January 15, 2002, 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 NCEEP 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.ne.us/ncwetlands/strmaide.html.
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 is proposed. As stated in the cover letter we have initiated talks with NC
EEP about doing restoration/enhancement work. We have a tentative site meeting set up for
the second week in July.

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points to
each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics
identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a characteristic cannot
be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section. Where
there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may
be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach. The total score assigned
to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality.

Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points to
each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics
identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a characteristic cannot
be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section. Where
there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may
be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach. The total score assigned
to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality.

The purpose of this letter is to request written authorization for stream impacts under
Nationwide Permits 3 and 39 for the project known as the Broyhill Property in Watauga
County, North Carolina. The project proposes permanent impacts associated with nine
road crossings with a total of 125 linear feet of new stream impacts and 0.066 acres of
new wetland impacts.
The attached USGS topographical maps show the location of the project. Impacts are
shown on the attached site plan map. The proposed impacts are for road crossings to
access a proposed residential development and one lot fill area. The property has been
considered for a golf course in the past but the development group that will be
proceeding with the project have no plans for a golf course. There are potential stream
and wetland restoration and enhancement opportunities on site. We are currently
initializing contact with the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program to discuss
these potential opportunities further.
The land planners will be developing a stringent stormwater management plan to meet
local county requirements since Boone Fork and Cold Prong are classified as ORW
waters. The site will contain less than 20% impervious surface and is being developed
in such a way to keep the majority of the built upon areas further away from Boone
Fork than legally required. The lake that was permitted back in late 2005 under a

Nationwide Permit 3 is the central amenity of the project and therefore water quality is
of absolute importance.
A Corps stream channel data form for the main stream on site is included within this
application. for your reference. The North Carolina Division of Water Quality (NC DWQ)
classifies Boone Fork and Cold Prong as class "'C" ' "Tr", "ORW" waters. A copy of this

Updated 11/1/2005
Page 9 of 13
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. Stream crossings are needed
to access the proposed development. Impacts have been minimized by utilizing existing road
crossings at every road crossing but one..
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 January 15, 2002, 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 NCEEP 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
httl2://l12o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.htmI..
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 is proposed. As stated in the cover letter we have initiated talks with NC
EEP about doing restoration/enhancement work. We have a tentative site meeting set up for
the second week in July.

16. Site conditions at time of visit: Rainy, cool
17. Identify any special waterway classifications known: C; Tr; ORW
18. Is there a pond or lake located upstream of the evaluation point? No If yes, estimate the water surface area:
19. Does channel appear on USGS quad map? Yes
20. Does channel appear on USDA Soil Survey? .
21. Estimated watershed land use: 60% Forested, , 40% Pasture
22. Bankfull width: 23. Bank height (from bed to top of bank):
24. Channel slope down center of stream: Gentle (24%)
25. Channel sinuosity: Occasional Bends
Instructions for completion of worksheet (located on page 2): Begin by determining the most appropriate ecoregion based on
location, terrain, vegetation, stream classification, etc. Every characteristic must be scored using the same ecoregion. Assign points to
each characteristic within the range shown for the ecoregion. Page 3 provides a brief description of how to review the characteristics
identified in the worksheet. Scores should reflect an overall assessment of the stream reach under evaluation. If a characteristic cannot
be evaluated due to site or weather conditions, enter 0 in the scoring box and provide an explanation in the comment section. Where
there are obvious changes in the character of a stream under review (e.g., the stream flows from a pasture into a forest), the stream may
be divided into smaller reaches that display more continuity, and a separate form used to evaluate each reach. The total score assigned
to a stream reach must range between 0 and 100, with a score of 100 representing a stream of the highest quality.
