Caldwell County Schools, Playground Expansion
Colletsville Elementary School
Broyhill Walking Park (Charles Davis)
Caldwell County
I visited the site of the proposed stream relocation for the playground
expansion at Colletsville Elementary School on June 13, 1991. As
explained to me by Mr. Earl Bradshaw of Caldwell County Schools, the
relocation involves about 200 feet of an unnamed tributary to the
John's River. The relocation will involve no clearing, as it is in a
grassed area and the stream bank is not wooded. The only wetland
involved is the stream itself, which I considered a low priority for
protection based on the site visit. The construction should be carried
out in such a manner to minimize sedimentation into the John's River
approximately 300 feet downstream. Disturbed areas should be
stabilized as soon as possible.
Based on the description of the work proposed to the Broyhill Walking
Park, no site visit was made and no comments are made on the Nationwide
Permit for this project.
If you have any questions on either of these projects, please let me
know.

Dear Mr. Bradshaw:
Thank you for the inquiry of March 27, 1991, regarding your plans to
relocate approximately 200 linear feet of an unnamed, headwaters tributary to
the Johns River at Collettsville Elementary School to expand playground
facilities in Collettsville, Caldwell County, North Carolina.
For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program, Title 33;
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330, published in the Federal Register
on November 13, 1986, lists nationwide permits. Authorization was provided
for discharges of dredged or fill material into non-tidal rivers, streams, and
their lakes and impoundments., including adjacent wetlands, that are located
above the headwaters and other non-tidal waters of the United States,
including adjacent wetlands, that are not a part of a surface tributary system
to interstate waters or navigable waters of the United States. This general
authorization is valid only for work that causes the loss or substantial
adverse modification of less than 1 acre of wetlands.
Your work is authorized by nationwide permit provided it is accomplished
in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions. Please be aware that this
authorization does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any
required State or local approval.
This verification will be valid until the nationwide permit is modified,
reissued, or revoked. All the nationwide permits are scheduled to be
modified, reissued, or revoked prior to January 13, 1992. It is incumbent
upon you to remain informed of changes to the nationwide permits. We will
issue a public notice announcing the changes when they occur. Futhermore, if
you commence or are under contract to commence this activity before the date
the nationwide' permit is modified or revoked, you will have 12 months from the
date of the modification or revocation to complete the activity under the
present terms and conditions of this nationwide permit.
