Subject Property: LBJ Bridge Replacement
Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Hilliard:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed
below, to place fill within or otherwise impact approximately 265 linear feet of streams
for the purpose of stream stabilization and access repair / replacement at the subject
property, as described within your application received by the N.C. Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) on August 25, 2006. After reviewing your application, we have decided
these impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3495
(GC3495). The Certification (s) allows you to use Nationwide Permit(s) 13 / 27 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 stormwater 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 that you described in your application. If you change
your project beyond this approval, 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
Approved (Units)
Stream Approximately Wayah Creek
265 (linear feet)
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.

September 11, 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. Construction in this creek and disturbance within a 25-foot trout buffer shall be
avoided during the October 15 to April 15 trout spawning period to avoid adverse
effects of sediment on eggs and larvae.
7. Sediment and erosion control measures must be implemented prior to construction
and maintained on the sites to minimize sediment in downstream areas. Seeding for
a temporary cover of wheat, millet, or similar annual grain or permanent herbaceous
cover should occur on all bare soil within five (5) days of ground disturbing activities
to provide long-term erosion control. The projects should be accomplished in stages
instead of leaving large tracts exposed to further storm events. Erosion control
matting should be used in conjunction with appropriate seeding on disturbed soils in
steep slope and riparian areas. Matting should be secured in place with staples,
stakes, or, wherever possible, live stakes of native trees. Straw mulch and tall
fescue should not be used in riparian areas. In addition, because of an anticipated
difficulty in establishing ground cover during the winter, reseeding should be
conducted, as necessary, in the spring-time with a native annual and perennial seed
mix with a temporary nursery crop of wheat, millet or other grain.
8. Only clean, large, angular rock, large woody material, or other natural stream design
materials and techniques should be used for bank stabilization. Rock should not be
placed in the stream channel in a manner that constricts stream flow or that will
impede aquatic life movements during low flow conditions. Filter cloth should be
placed behind large rock that is used for bank stabilization. Properly designed rock
vanes should be constructed wherever appropriate on bank stabilization and
channel realignment stream reaches to improve channel stability and to improve
aquatic habitat. Root wads should be installed low enough in the bank so that a
significant portion (at least one-third) the root wad is inundated during normal flows.
Should large, angular rock, large woody material, or other natural stream design
materials and techniques not be sufficient for long term stability of the stream and
adjacent roadway, and concrete be incorporated into the design, measures which
would prevent surface waters from coming into contact with live concrete.

9. The channel should be restored to a more stable condition. However, under no
circumstances should river rock, sand or other materials be dredged from the
stream channel under authorization of this permit except, if necessary, in the
immediate vicinity of the eroding banks for the explicit purpose of anchoring
stabilizing or flow/grade control structures or for reestablishing the natural and more
stable stream channel dimensions. Stream bed materials are unstable in flowing-
water situations and are unsuitable for bank stabilization. In stream dredging has
catastrophic effects on aquatic life and disturbance of the natural form of the stream
channel can cause downstream erosion problems. The natural dimension, pattern,
and profile of the stream upstream and downstream of the permitted area should not
be modified by widening the stream channel or changing its depth. No backfilling
of stream bed materials is allowed under this authorization.
10. Stabilization measures should only be applied on or near existing erosion sites,
leaving other stable stream bank areas in a natural condition. Grading and
backfilling should be minimized and tree and shrub growth should be retained where
possible to ensure long term availability of stream bank cover for aquatic life and
wildlife. Backfill materials should be obtained from upland sites except in cases
where excess stream bed materials are available. Berms should not be permitted
because they block the floodplain, constrict and accelerate flood flows, and often fail
and sometimes impede drainage during large flood events.
11. Repairs to eroded banks should be conducted in a dry work area. Sandbags or
other clean diversion structures should be used to minimize excavation in flowing
water. Channel realignments should be constructed by excavating the new channel
from downstream to upstream before connecting it to the old channel.
12. 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. Exposure of equipment to
surface waters must be minimized to the maximum extent possible.
13. Disturbed stream banks and a 25-foot vegetated zone (as required under the Trout
Buffer regulations) must be restored along the construction sites 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.
Replanting of vegetation within disturbed areas located within 30 feet of the
streambank associated with any land disturbing activity, repair, replacement and/or
maintenance must be done in a manner consistant with the Guidelines for Riparian
Buffer Restoration immediately following construction. (Please see attached.)
14. If pasture along the stream is to be used for grazing, a fence must be constructed
outside of the riparian zone and the stream to prevent livestock from entering these
areas.

15. Diffuse Flow
All constructed stormwater conveyance outlets shall be directed and maintained
as diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected riparian zones
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.
16. Turbidity Standard
The turbidity standard of 10 NTUs (Nephelometric Turbidity Units) shall not be
exceeded as described in 15 A NCAC 213. .0200. Appropriate sediment and
erosion control practices must be used to meet this standard.
17. No Sediment and Erosion Control Measures in Wetlands
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 or locally delegated program has released the project.
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.
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 1508 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.

Enclosed are seven (7) copies of a revised Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) and a $475
application fee for the construction of a new bridge across Wayah Creek on National Forest
System Road (NFSR) # 90, on the Wayah Ranger District of the Nantahala National Forest, in
Macon County, North Carolina. Our initial PCN submission proposed extensive imbricated rip-
rap placement along the banks of Wayah Creek. The revised design proposes the following;
Stream Rehabilitation Work:
• Slope approximately 185 feet of stream bank back to a 2:1 slope, removing all existing
gabion baskets and deteriorated stone walls.
• Construct two J-Hook type rock vanes in-stream.
Seed all disturbed areas with native grass and mulch with straw.
Place erosion control matting on banks.
Plant banks with trees and shrubs.
Bridge Replacement
• Construct a temporary bridge crossing for use during new bridge construction.
• Construct a permanent bridge at the current bridge site.
• Place rip-rap abutment protection at the new bridge and the existing downstream
pedestrian bridge.
Based on our review of the authorized Nationwide Permits (NWP), Regional General Permits
(RGP) we believe this project is covered under RGP 198200031. As required by General
Condition 3404 and PCN instructions we are requesting Section 401 water quality certification
for this project. Concurrent with this application, the PCN has been submitted to the US Army
Corps of Engineers for Section 404 permit approval.
Please disregard our previous submission for this project.

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. Entire site lies within the
floodplain making it impossible to locate the structure out of the floodplain. Since the site is very flat,
raising the roadway _profile to allow passage of the 100 year flows would require very steep grades 8! +)
due to adjacent structures and would result in high embankments creating a "dam" which itself would be
subject to erosion. Previous storm waters have resulted in the structure failure.
Proposed design will protect the embankments along the abutments (and the adjacent stream) to
minimize or prevent future erosion and resulting embankment failure. The removal of gabions and
deteriorated stone wall will reduce the channelization effect. Sloping the stream embankments in
combination with seeding and shrub plantings will encourage natural stream action. J-hook vane
installation will improve in-stream habitat and protect bridge abutments.

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

IN-STREAM STRUCTURES SPECIFICATIONS
Structure Stone
Description
The work covered by this section consists of furnishing, stockpiling, placing and maintaining approved stone to be
utilized to construct rock and log vanes, root wad structures, the step-pool structures, stream crossings, sediment
and erosion control measures for use in locations as directed by the Designer. The quantity of stone may be
increased, decreased, or eliminated entirely at the direction of the Designer. Such variations in quantity will not be
considered as alterations in the details of construction or a change in the character of the work.
Materials
Stone for Coarse Aggregate, No. 57 Stone, "Rip Rap-Class A", "Rip Rap-Class B", "Boulder-Footer", and "Boulder-
Header" shall consist of blasted stone or other stone approved by the Designer. The stone shall be sound, tough,
dense, resistant to the action of air and water, and suitable in all other respects for the purpose intended.
All stone shall meet the approval of the Designer. While no specific gradation is required, the various sizes of the
stone shall be equally distributed within the required size range. The size of an individual stone particle will be
determined by measuring its long dimension.
Acceptance Criteria for Stone

No more than 5 percent of the material furnished can be less than the minimum size specified, more than 10 percent
of the material can exceed the maximum size specified.
Footer boulders of approximate dimension 48x48x72 inches shall be individually picked for use in the structures.
Header boulders of approximate dimension 48x48x72 inches shall be individually picked for use as the headers in
the structures. Boulders shall be relatively flat on either side in the same dimension, preferably the long dimension.
Consbvctilon
The Contractor shall place stone, in locations shown on the construction plans to the thickness, widths, and lengths
as shown on the construction plans or directed by the Designer. All stone shall be placed neatly and uniformly with an
even surface to form an in-stream structure or a sediment and erosion control device or in accordance with the
construction plans and special provisions, and shall meet the approval of the Designer.
Method of Measurement
The quantity of stone required to construct the structures or sediment and erosion control measures detailed in these
special provisions will be incidental to those bid items. However, field conditions may warrant the need for additional
stone greater than the quantity specified or detailed for each bid item. The quantity of stone that has been incorporated
into the project, as directed or approved by the Designer, which exceeds 110% of the quantity required for each bid
item will be measured by weight. Measured by weight will require the quantity to be weighed in trucks on certified
platform scales. Stone that was previously stockpiled for other bid items will not be measured a second time for this
provision.
Basis of Payment
When field conditions dictate the need for additional quantity greater than 10% of the bid item, the quantity of
stone measured as provided above, will be paid for at the contract unit price per ton for "Misc. Coarse
Aggregate, No. 57 Stone", "Misc. Rip Rap-Class A", "Misc. Rip Rap-Class B", and "Misc. Boulder". Such price
and payment will be full compensation for all work covered by this section, including but not limited to
furnishing, weighing, stockpiling, re-handling, placing, and maintaining the stone and disposal of any materials
not incorporated into the project if directed by the Designer.

Rock J-hook Vane
Description
A Rock J-hook Vane is primarily used for grade control. This structure serves to maintain the integrity of the
upstream riffle while promoting scouring in the downstream pool. The design shape is roughly that of the letter "J"
with the apex located on the upstream side at the foot of the riffle. Footer boulders are placed in the channel bottom
for stability. Header boulders are then placed on top of these footer boulders. Header boulders in the middle of the
channel are at approximately the same depth as the riffle. On one side of the channel, wing boulders are placed at
an angle to the stream bank, gradually inclining in elevation until they are located near the bankfull surface directly
adjacent to the stream bank. On the other side, the structure turns downstream to create the hook of the "J",
matching the slope of the wing until it goes directly toward the bank as a sill. Water flowing downstream is forced
over these boulders towards the middle and opposite side of the channel, effectively turning flow and scouring out a
pool below. Boulders placed at the apex hold back streambed material and prevent it from washing downstream.
The quantity of Rods J-hook Vanes may be increased, decreased, or eliminated entirely at the direction of the
Designer. Such variations in quantity will not be considered as alterations in the details of construction or a
change in the character of the work (See Rods J-hook Vane detail below).
Materials
All materials shall meet the requirements of boukler as outlined in Special Provision "Structure Stone". Back fill
material shall be obtained from the stream channel bed, likely from the constructed pool.
Installation
A trench shall be dug in such a manner that the footer boulders, the hook header boulders and at least V3 of the
wing boulders are buried beneath the bed surface elevation. Refer to the construction plans for exact installation
guide and locations of vane to be installed. An excavator, with a bucket that includes a hydraulic thumb, shall be
used to place boulders under the supervision of Designer. Footer boulders shall be placed first with header
boulders placed on top prior to any back filling of the trench. Boulders shall be selected and positioned such that
they butt tightly together and there are multiple contact points between all boulders (flat smooth surfaces that fit
together). In the center portion of the channel, the header boulder shall be placed such that the top of the header
boulder is at an elevation equal to the bed elevation. The header boulders in the side, or wing, portion shall be
placed in such a manner as they slope up from bed elevation to bankfull or below at a 2 to 7 percent slope or as
shown in detail. Header and footer boulders at both banks shall be tied in securely to the bank in such a way that
eliminates the possibility of water diverting around them. A rock sill shall be utilized to further prevent water from
cutting around the structure. The area between the stream bank and vane on the upstream side of the structure will
be bacldilled with stream bed material.
Structures shall be built to the approval of the Designer. The Designer may adjust the number and placement of
structures in the field.

5. Pond Creation
If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be
included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.
Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands

local stormwater requirement, etc.):
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. Entire site lies within the
floodplain making it impossible to locate the structure out of the floodplain. Since the site is very flat,
raising the roadway profile to allow passage of the 100 year flows would require very steep grades (80/o+)
due to adjacent structures and would result in high embankments creating a "dam" which itself would be
subject to erosion. Previous storm waters have resulted in the structure failure.
Proposed design will protect the embankments along the abutments (and the adjacent stream) to
minimize or prevent future erosion and resulting embankment failure. The removal of gabions and
deteriorated stone wall will reduce the channelization effect. Sloping the stream embankments in
combination with seeding and shrub plantings will encourage natural stream action. J-hook vane
installation will improve in-stream habitat and protect bridge abutments.

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.

IN-STREAM STRUCTURES SPECIFICATIONS
Structure Stone
Description
The work covered by this section consists of fumishing, stockpiling, placing and maintaining approved stone to be
utilized to construct rock and log vanes, root wad structures, the step-pool structures, stream crossings, sediment
and erosion control measures for use in locations as directed by the Designer. The quantity of stone may be
increased, decreased, or eliminated entirely at the direction of the Designer. Such variations in quantity will not be
considered as alterations in the details of construction or a change in the character of the work.
Materials
Stone for Coarse Aggregate, No. 57 Stone, "Rip Rap-Class A", "Rip Rap-Class B", "Boulder-Footer", and "Boulder-
Header" shall consist of blasted stone or other stone approved by the Designer. The stone shall be sound, tough,
dense, resistant to the action of air and water, and suitable in all other respects for the purpose intended.
All stone shall meet the approval of the Designer. While no specific gradation is required, the various sizes of the
stone shall be equally distributed within the required size range. The size of an individual stone particle will be
determined by measuring its long dimension.
Acceptance Criteria for Stone

No more than 5 percent of the material furnished can be less than the minimum size specified, more than 10 percent
of the material can exceed the maximum size specified.
Footer boulders of approximate dimension 48x48x72 inches shall be individually picked for use in the structures.
Header boulders of approximate dimension 48x48x72 inches shall be individually picked for use as the headers in
the structures. Boulders shall be relatively flat on either side in the same dimension, preferably the long dimension.
Construction
The Contractor shall place stone, in locations shown on the construction plans to the thickness, widths, and lengths
as shown on the construction plans or directed by the Designer. All stone shall be placed neatly and uniformly with an
even surface to fort an in-stream structure or a sediment and erosion control device or in accordance with the
construction plans and special provisions, and shall meet the approval of the Designer.
Method of Measurement
The quantity of stone required to construct the structures or sediment and erosion control measures detailed in these
special provisions will be incidental to those bid items. However, field conditions may warrant the need for additional
stone greater than the quantity specified or detailed for each bid item. The quantity of stone that has been incorporated
into the project, as directed or approved by the Designer, which exceeds 110% of the quantity required for each bid
item will be measured by weight. Measured by weight will require the quantity to be weighed in trucks on certified
platform scales. Stone that was previously stockpiled for other bid items will not be measured a second time for this
provision.
Basis of Payment
When field conditions dictate the need for additional quantity greater than 10% of the bid item, the quantity of
stone measured as provided above, will be paid for at the contract unit price per ton for "Misc. Coarse
Aggregate, No. 57 Stone", "Misc. Rip Rap-Class A", "Misc. Rip Rap-Class B", and "Misc. Boulder". Such price
and payment will be full compensation for all work covered by this section, including but not limited to
furnishing, weighing, stockpiling, re-handling, placing, and maintaining the stone and disposal of any materials
not incorporated into the project if directed by the Designer.

Rock J-hook Vane
Description
A Rock J-hook Vane is primarily used for grade control. This structure serves to maintain the integrity of the
upstream riffle while promoting scouring in the downstream pool. The design shape is roughly that of the letter "J"
with the apex located on the upstream side at the foot of the riffle. Footer boulders are placed in the channel bottom
for stability. Header boulders are then placed on top of these footer boulders. Header boulders in the middle of the
channel are at approximately the same depth as the riffle. On one side of the channel, wing boulders are placed at
an angle to the stream bank, gradually inclining in elevation until they are located near the bankfull surface directly
adjacent to the stream bank. On the other side, the structure turns downstream to create the hook of the "J",
matching the slope of the wing until it goes directly toward the bank as a sill. Water flowing downstream is forced
over these boulders towards the middle and opposite side of the channel, effectively turning flow and scouring out a
pool below. Boulders placed at the apex hold back streambed material and prevent it from washing downstream.
The quantity of Rock J-hook Vanes may be increased, decreased, or eliminated entirely at the direction of the
Designer. Such variations in quantity will not be considered as alterations in the details of construction or a
change in the character of the work (See Rock J-hook Vane detail below).
Materials
All materials shall meet the requirements of boulder as outlined in Special Provision "Structure Stone". Back fill
material shall be obtained from the stream channel bed, likely from the constructed pool.
Installation
A trench shall be dug in such a manner that the footer boulders, the hook header boulders and at least 1/3 of the
wing boulders are buried beneath the bed surface elevation. Refer to the construction plans for exact installation
guide and locations of vane to be installed. An excavator, with a bucket that includes a hydraulic thumb, shall be
used to place boulders under the supervision of Designer. Footer boulders shall be placed first with header
boulders placed on top prior to any back filling of the trench. Boulders shall be selected and positioned such that
they butt tightly together and there are multiple contact points between all boulders (flat smooth surfaces that fit
together). In the center portion of the channel, the header boulder shall be placed such that the top of the header
boulder is at an elevation equal to the bed elevation. The header boulders in the side, or wing, portion shall be
placed in such a manner as they slope up from bed elevation to bankfull or below at a 2 to 7 percent slope or as
shown in detail. Header and footer boulders at both banks shall be tied in securely to the bank in such a way that
eliminates the possibility of water diverting around them. A rock sill shall be utilized to further prevent water from
cutting around the structure. The area between the stream bank and vane on the upstream side of the structure will
be backfilled with stream bed material.
Structures shall be built to the approval of the Designer. The Designer may adjust the number and placement of
structures in the field.

Dear Ms. Karoly;
Enclosed are seven (7) copies of a Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) and a $200 application
fee for the construction of a new bridge across Wayah Creek on National Forest System Road
(NFSR) # 90, on the Wayah Ranger District of the Nantahala National Forest, in Macon County,
North Carolina. The purpose of the project is to replace a concrete bridge which was destroyed
by the remnants of Hurricanes Francis, Ivan, and Jeanne in September 2005, with a 52 foot
single span concrete bridge. This project entails the construction of a temporary diversion road,
installation of a temporary bridge, removal of existing deteriorated stone walls and gabion stream
bank protection, construction of two new abutments (on piles) on the existing road alignment,
installation of a pre-cast concrete superstructure, installation of imbricated riprap on both stream
banks, diversion road and temporary bridge removal, and site stabilization.
Based on our review of the authorized Nationwide Permits (NWP) and Regional General Permits
(RGP) we believe this project is covered under RGP 198200031. As required by General
Condition 3404 and PCN instructions we are requesting Section 401 water quality certification
for this project. Concurrent with this application, the PCN has been submitted to the US Army
Corps of Engineers for Section 404 permit approval.
If you have any questions, concerns, and/or require additional information, please contact me or

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. Entire site lies within the
floodplain making it impossible to locate the structure out of the floodnlain. Since the site is very flat
raising the roadway profile to allow passage of the 100 year flows would require very steep grades (8%+)
due to adjacent structures and would result in high embankments creating a "dam" which itself would be
subject to erosion. Previous storm waters have resulted in the structure failure.
Proposed design will protect the embankments along the abutments (and the adjacent stream) to
minimize or prevent future erosion and resulting embankment failure. Stream diversion through
containment (piping) through this section will allow the work to proceed without contamination to
downstream waters. Restored channel dimensions and profile will be determined by evaluating
appropriate, nearby stable or nearly stable reference sections. The temptation to provide a wide shallow
channel will be voided. Temporary and or permanent vegetation will be planted on all bare soil within 15
days or specified amount) of ground disturbing activities. See attached Stream Diversion and
Stabilization Plan.

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/strmgide.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.
N/A
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
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/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):

Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public
(federal/state) land?
Yes ® No ?
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No ? N/A
If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes ? No ? N/A
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )?
Yes ? No ® If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.

If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0260.
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
Impervious acreage will not change. Erosion and sedimentation prevention and control will be
maintained throughout this project primarily through proper water management, construction sequencing,
proper staging and stockpiling material, and the maintenance at all times of suitable channel capacity for
expected flow events No equipment fuels lubricants or other potential sources of water pollution will
be stored in areas that could be flooded during this project.
XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
TemporaiNportable facilities will be required for the duration of the project.

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
the project has been placed on hold until decipherable maps are provided.

5. Pond Creation
If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be
included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.
Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands
Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of
draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.):
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. Entire site lies within the
floodplain making it impossible to locate the structure out of the floodalain Since the site is very flat
raising the roadway profile to allow passage of the 100 year flows would require very steep grades (8%+)
due to adjacent structures and would result in high embankments creating a "dam" which itself would be
subject to erosion. Previous storm waters have resulted in the structure failure
Proposed design will protect the embankments along the abutments (and the adjacent stream) to
minimize or prevent future erosion and resulting embankment failure Stream diversion through
containment (piping) am through this section will allow the work to proceed without contamination to
downstream waters. Restored channel dimensions and profile will be determined by evaluating
appropriate, nearby stable or nearly stable reference sections The temptation to provide a wide shallow
channel will be voided Temporary and or permanent vegetation will be planted on all bare soil within 15
days (or specified amount) of ground disturbing activities. See attached Stream Diversion and
Stabilization Plan.

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/strm.gide.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.
N/A
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
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the
following information:

wetlands, open water, and stream channels associated with the project. The applicant must also
provide justification for these impacts in Section VII below. All proposed impacts, permanent
and temporary, must be listed herein, and must be clearly identifiable on an accompanying site
plan. All wetlands and waters, and all streams (intermittent and perennial) must be shown on a
delineation map, whether or not impacts are proposed to these systems. Wetland and stream
evaluation and delineation forms should be included as appropriate. Photographs may be
included at the applicant's discretion. If this proposed impact is strictly for wetland or stream
mitigation, list and describe the impact in Section VIII below. If additional space is needed for
listing or description, please attach a separate sheet.
Page 3 of 8
1. Provide a written description of the proposed impacts: Construction of new super and
substructure over Wayah Creek. Removal of debris within stream, removal of deteriorated stone wall and
gabions lining stream and replacing with new engineered imbricated riprap wall on both sides of the creek
for approximately 260'. Some excavation along the eroded/failed stream banks will be done to install the
new riprap and improve flow through reach. Throurh--pipes will be run to divert the stream to allow
construction in the dry and to avoid contamination of waters.
2. Individually list wetland impacts below:

* List each impact separately and identify temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: mechanized clearing, grading, fill,
excavation, flooding, ditching/drainage, etc. For dams, separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding.
** 100-Year floodplains are identified through the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps
(FIRM), or FEMA-approved local floodplain maps. Maps are available through the FEMA Map Service Center at 1-800-358-9616, or
online at http://www.fema.gov.
*** List a wetland type that best describes wetland to be impacted (e.g., freshwater/saltwater marsh, forested wetland, beaver pond,
Carolina Bay, bog, etc.) Indicate if wetland is isolated (determination of isolation to be made by USACE only).

* List each impact separately and identify temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: culverts and associated rip-rap,
dams (separately list impacts due to both structure and flooding), relocation (include linear feet before and after, and net loss/gain),
stabilization activities (cement wall, rip-rap, crib wall, gabions, etc.), excavation, ditching/straightening, etc. If stream relocation is
proposed, plans and profiles showing the linear footprint for both the original and relocated streams must be included.
** Stream names can be found on USGS topographic maps. If a stream has no name, list as UT (unnamed tributary) to the nearest
downstream named stream into which it flows. USGS maps are available through the USGS at 1-800-358-9616, or online at
www.us2s.gov. Several internet sites also allow direct download and printing of USGS maps (e.g., www.topozone.com,
www.mal2quest.com, etc.).

* List each impact separately and identify temporary impacts. Impacts include, but are not limited to: fill, excavation, dredging,
flooding, drainage, bulkheads, etc.
5. Pond Creation
If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be
included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.
Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands
Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of
draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.):
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. Entire site lies within the
floodplain making it impossible to locate the structure out of the floodplain. Since the site is very flat,
raising the roadway profile to allow passage of the 100 year flows would require very steep grades (8%+)
due to adjacent structures and would result in high embankments creating a "darn' 'which itself would be
subject to erosion. Previous storm waters have resulted in the structure failure.
Proposed design will protect the embankments along the abutments (and the adjacent stream) to
minimize or prevent future erosion and resulting embankment failure. Stream diversion through
containment (piping) gh this section will allow the work to proceed without contamination to
downstream waters. Restored channel dimensions and profile will be determined by evaluating
appropriate, nearby stable or nearly stable reference sections. The temptation to provide a wide shallow
channel will be voided. Temporary and or permanent vegetation will be planted on all bare soil within 15
days (or specified amount) of ground disturbing activities. See attached Stream Diversion and
Stabilization Plan.

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/strm,g,ide.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.
N/A
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
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wm/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):
Page 6 of 8
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public
(federal/state) land?
Yes ® No ?
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No ? N/A
If yes, has the document review been fmalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes ? No ? N/A
X .Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify )?
Yes ? No ® If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers. Required
Zone* Impact
(square feet) Multiplier Mitigation
1 3
2 1.5
Total
* Zone 1 extends out 30 feet perpendicular from near bank of channel; Zone 2 extends an
additional 20 feet from the edge of zone 1.
Page 7 of 8
If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or .0260.
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
Impervious acreage will not change. Erosion and sedimentation prevention and control will be
maintained throughout this project primarily through proper water management, construction sequencing,
proper staging, and stockpiling material, and the maintenance at all times of suitable channel capacity for
expected flow events. No equipment, fuels, lubricants, or other potential sources of water pollution will
be stored in areas that could be flooded during this project.
XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
Temporary portable facilities will be required for the duration of the project.
XIII. Violations (required by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H.0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).

5. Pond Creation
If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be
included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.
Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands
Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of
draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.):
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. Entire site lies within the
floodplain making it impossible to locate the structure out of the floodplain. Since the site is very flat,
raising the roadway profile to allow passage of the 100 year flows would require very steep grades (8%+)
due to adjacent structures and would result in high embankments creating a "dam" which itself would be
subject to erosion. Previous storm waters have resulted in the structure failure.
Proposed desig- will protect the embankments along the abutments (and the adjacent stream) to
minimize or prevent future erosion and resulting embankment failure. Stream diversion through
containment (piping) through this section will allow the work to proceed without contamination to
downstream waters. Restored channel dimensions and profile will be determined by evaluating
appropriate, nearby stable or nearly stable reference sections. The temptation to provide a wide shallow
channel will be voided. Temporary and or permanent vegetation will be planted on all bare soil within 15
days (or specified amount) of ground disturbing activities. See attached Stream Diversion and
Stabilization Plan.
Page 5 of 8
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
htt]2://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/strmgide.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.
N/A
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
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of
the NCWRP is proposed, please check the appropriate box on page three and provide the
following information:

5. Pond Creation
If construction of a pond is proposed, associated wetland and stream impacts should be
included above in the wetland and stream impact sections. Also, the proposed pond should
be described here and illustrated on any maps included with this application.
Pond to be created in (check all that apply): ? uplands ? stream ? wetlands
Describe the method of construction (e.g., dam/embankment, excavation, installation of
draw-down valve or spillway, etc.): N/A
Proposed use or purpose of pond (e.g., livestock watering, irrigation, aesthetic, trout pond,
local stormwater requirement, etc.):
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. Entire site lies within the
floodplain making it impossible to locate the structure out of the floodplain. Since the site is very flat,
raising the roadway profile to allow passage of the 100 year flows would require very steep grades (8%+)
due to adjacent structures and would result in high embankments creating a "dam" which itself would be
subject to erosion. Previous storm waters have resulted in the structure failure.
Proposed design will protect the embankments along the abutments (and the adjacent stream) to
minimize or prevent future erosion and resulting embankment failure. Stream diversion through
containment (piping) , through this section will allow the work to proceed without contamination to
downstream waters. Restored channel dimensions and profile will be determined by evaluating
appropriate, nearby stable or nearly stable reference sections. The temptation to provide a wide shallow
channel will be voided. Temporary and or permanent vegetation will be planted on all bare soil within 15
days (or specified amount) of ground disturbing activities. See attached Stream Diversion and
Stabilization Plan.

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/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.
N/A
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
[phone] to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior
to submittal of a PCN. For additional information regarding the application process for the
NCWRP, check the NCWRP website at http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/wM/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):
Page 6 of 8
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet):
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Non-riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres):
Amount of Coastal wetland mitigation requested (acres):
IX. Environmental Documentation (required by DWQ)
Does the project involve an expenditure of public (federal/state) funds or the use of public
(federal/state) land?
Yes ® No ?
If yes, does the project require preparation of an environmental document pursuant to the
requirements of the National or North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (NEPA/SEPA)?
Note: If you are not sure whether a NEPA/SEPA document is required, call the SEPA
coordinator at [phone] to review current thresholds for environmental documentation.
Yes ? No ? N/A
If yes, has the document review been finalized by the State Clearinghouse? If so, please attach a
copy of the NEPA or SEPA final approval letter.
Yes ? No ? N/A
X. Proposed Impacts on Riparian and Watershed Buffers (required by DWQ)
It is the applicant's (or agent's) responsibility to determine, delineate and map all impacts to
required state and local buffers associated with the project. The applicant must also provide
justification for these impacts in Section VII above. All proposed impacts must be listed herein,
and must be clearly identifiable on the accompanying site plan. All buffers must be shown on a
map, whether or not impacts are proposed to the buffers. Correspondence from the DWQ
Regional Office may be included as appropriate. Photographs may also be included at the
applicant's discretion.
Will the project impact protected riparian buffers identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233
(Neuse), 15A NCAC 2B .0259 (Tar-Pamlico), 15A NCAC 2B .0250 (Randleman Rules and
Water Supply Buffer Requirements), or other (please identify, )?
Yes ? No ® If you answered "yes", provide the following information:
Identify the square feet and acreage of impact to each zone of the riparian buffers. If buffer
mitigation is required calculate the required amount of mitigation by applying the buffer
multipliers.
Zone* (sqImpact uare feet) Multiplier Required
1 3
2 1.5
Total
Lone 1 extends out 3U teet perpendicular from near bank of channel; "Lone 2 extends an
additional 20 feet from the edge of Zone 1.
Page 7 of 8
If buffer mitigation is required, please discuss what type of mitigation is proposed (i.e., Donation
of Property, Conservation Easement, Riparian Buffer Restoration / Enhancement, Preservation or
Payment into the Riparian Buffer Restoration Fund). Please attach all appropriate information as
identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0242 or.0260.
XI. Stormwater (required by DWQ)
Describe impervious acreage (both existing and proposed) versus total acreage on the site.
Discuss stormwater controls proposed in order to protect surface waters and wetlands
downstream from the property.
Impervious acreage will not change. Erosion and sedimentation prevention and control will be
maintained throughout this project primarily through proper water management, construction sequencing,
proper staging and stockpiling material, and the maintenance at all times of suitable channel capacity for
expected flow events. No equipment, fuels, lubricants, or other potential sources of water pollution will
be stored in areas that could be flooded during this project.
XII. Sewage Disposal (required by DWQ)
Clearly detail the ultimate treatment methods and disposition (non-discharge or discharge) of
wastewater generated from the proposed project, or available capacity of the subject facility.
Temporary portable facilities will be required for the duration of the project.
XIII. Violations (required by DWQ)
Is this site in violation of DWQ Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 2H.0500) or any Buffer Rules?
Yes ? No
Is this an after-the-fact permit application?
Yes ? No
XIV. Other Circumstances (Optional):
It is the applicant's responsibility to submit the application sufficiently in advance of desired
construction dates to allow processing time for these permits. However, an applicant may
choose to list constraints associated with construction or sequencing that may impose limits on
work schedules (e.g., draw-down schedules for lakes, dates associated with Endangered and
Threatened Species, accessibility problems, or other issues outside of the applicant's control).
