Planning Branch c
In keeping with your request, this office has circulated to interested
state review agencies U. S. Army Corps of Engineers Public Notice .... 0428
dated August 10, 1989 which describes a project proposed by the Town of Red
Springs. The project, involving the placement of fill material in wetlands
for construction of a 300 foot long, flood control dike, is located on Little
Raft Swamp in Red Springs, off of Shannon Road.
During the course of the state review, the N. C. Wildlife Resources
Commission submitted an objection to the project proposal. A copy of the
Commission memorandum is enclosed for your edification. While the state view
point position frequently supports the position of the N. C. Wildlife
Resources Commission, in this case the viewpoint defers to the Corps. It is
unlikely that the houses will be moved so some relief is apparently necessary.
We withdraw this position if, of course, flooding is rare and short lived.
For your information, the Division of Land Resources reports that a
sedimentation plan will be required if more than one acre is disturbed.
Otherwise, erosion control measures must be installed to prevent offsite
sedimentation. Contact Joe Glass at the Department's Fayetteville office.
Also, for the record, the Division of Environmental Management issued
Water Quality Certification No. 2373 for the proposal on September 25, 1989.

CESAW-0089-N-078-0428 August 10, 1989
PUBLIC NOTICE
THE TOWN OF RED SPRINGS, 217 South Main Street, Red Springs, North
Carolina 28377, has applied for a Department of the Army permit TO PLACE FILL
MATERIAL IN WETLANDS ADJACENT LITTLE RAFT SWAMP ASSOCIATED WITH CONSTRUCTION
OF AN EARTHEN BERM/DIKE, FOR FLOOD CONTROL, RED SPRINGS, Robeson County, North
Carolina.
The following description of the work is taken from data provided by the
applicant and from observations made during an onsite visit by a
representative of the Corps of Engineers. Plans submitted with the
application show the proposed construction of a 300-foot-long, 10-foot-wide,
3-foot-high berm/dike. Approximately 340 cubic yards of material is to be
excavated to form the berm. About 3,000 square feet (0.07 acre) of wetlands,
vegetated by cattails, three square, eleocharis and willows, would be impacted
by the work. The purpose of the work is to provide protection from high
water, flooding, for two residences. Plans showing the work are included with
this public notice.
The State of North Carolina will review this public notice to determine
the need for the applicant to obtain any required State authorization. No
Department of the Army permit will be issued until the coordinated State
viewpoint on the proposal has been received and reviewed by this agency, nor
will a Department of the Army permit be issued until the North Carolina
Division of Environmental Management has determined the applicability of a
Water Quality Certificate as required by PL 92-500.
This application is being considered pursuant to Section 404(b) of the
Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). Any person may request, in writing within
the comment period specified in the notice, that a public hearing be held to
consider this application. Requests for public hearing shall state, with
particularity, the reasons for holding a public hearing.
The District Engineer has consulted the latest published version of the
National Register of Historic Places for the presence or absence of registered
properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein, and
this worksite is not registered property or property listed as being eligible
for inclusion in the Register. Consultation of the National Register
1%
-2-
constitutes the extent of cultural resource investigations by the District
Engineer, and he is otherwise unaware of the presence of such resources.
Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistorical, or historical
data may be lost or destroyed by work under the requested permit.
The District Engineer, based on available information, is not aware that
the proposed activity will affect species, or their critical habitat,
designated as endangered or threatened pursuant to the Endangered Species Act
of 1973.
The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of
the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity
and its intended use on the public interest. Evaluation of the probable
impacts which the proposed activity may have on the public interest requires a
careful weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each particular
case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. The
decision whether to authorize a proposal, and if so the conditions under which
it will be allowed to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome of the.
general balancing process. That decision should reflect the national concern
for both protection and utilization of important resources. All factors which
may be relevant to the proposal must be considered including the cumulative
effects thereof. Among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general
environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values,
flood hazards and flood plain values (in accordance with Executive Order
11988), land use, navigation, shore erosion and accretion, recreation, water
supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber
production, mineral needs, considerations of property ownership, and, in
general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving the
placement of dredged or fill materials in waters of the United States, a
permit will be denied if the discharge that would be authorized by such permit
would not comply with the Environmental Protection Agencies- 404(b)(1)
guidelines. Subject to the preceding sentence and any other applicable
guidelines or criteria, a permit will be granted unless the District Engineer
determines that it would be contrary to the public interest.
Generally, the decision whether to issue this Department of the Army
permit will not be made until the North Carolina Division of Environmental
Management (DEM) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The DEM considers whether or not the
proposed activity will comply with Sections 301, 302, 306, and 307 of the
Clean Water Act. The application and this public notice for the Department of
the Army permit serves as application to the DEM for certification.
Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be
reviewed at the offices of the Environmental Operations Section, North
#I,
-3-
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Salisbury Street, Archdale
Building, Raleigh, North Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished
to any person requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs.
The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management plans to take
final action in the issuance of the Clean Water Act certification on or after
September 1, 1989.
All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for Clean
Water Act certification should do so in writing delivered to the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Post Office Box 27687, Raleigh,
North Carolina 27611-7687, on or before August 28, 1989, Attention:
Mr. William Mills.
Written comments pertinent to the proposed work, as outlined above, will
be received in this office, Attention: Mr. Hugh Heine, until 4:15 p.m.,
September 11, 1989, or telephone [phone].

Dear Mr. Mills:
Enclosed is the application of the Town of Red Springs for a Department of
the Army permit and a State Water Quality Certification to place fill material
in wetlands adjacent Little Raft Swamp associated with construction of an
earthen berm/dike, Red Springs, Robeson County, North Carolina. Your receipt
of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request for certification
in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations.
We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant to Section
404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined.that a water quality
certification may be required under the provisions of Section 401 of the same
law. A Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the
certification has been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days after receipt
of a request for certification is a reasonable time for State action.
Therefore, if you have not acted on the request by October 10, 1989, the
District Engineer will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Hugh Heine, telephone (919)
251-4725.
Sincerely,
*Chtars W. H lis
