Dear Mr. Dorney,
Attached is a completed application form for "NATIONWIDE PERMITS
THAT REQUIRE SECTION 401 CERTIFICATION CONCURRENCE" and the
required 8 1/2 by 11 inch attachments illustrating the pond and
stream crossings. A detail has also been included illustrating
the method which will be utilized to cross the streams to
minimize temporary disturbance. The form and attachments are
intended to satisfy requirements for the Nationwide Permit
Section 401 General Certification Concurrence.
Briefly, Piedmont Natural Gas Company intends to install a new
natural gas pipeline beside two existing pipelines in an
existing right-of-way north of Charlotte, North Carolina. The
pipeline will be approximately 27,000 feet long. The disturbed
width of the right-of-way is expected to be approximately 20 -
25 feet. Upon completion, the disturbed areas will be seeded
to match existing conditions. Additionally, all embankments
disturbed at the stream crossings will be stabilized using rip-
rap.
Field work is tentatively scheduled to begin in late June 1992,
and should require approximately six weeks. Accelerated review
of the attachments is requested so that work may begin as
scheduled.

Herb Je s, P.E.

Dear Mr. Killough:
(Utility Line Backfill and

r11AiLR Q?ALIiY SI??! _:. _.-
Reference your application of May 26, 1992, for Department of the Army
authorization to construct subaqueous natural gas pipeline crossings of
McIntyre Branch, Long Creek and Gar Creek within an existing right-of-way
north of Charlotte, burg County, North Carolina.
For the purposes of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program,
Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in the
Federal Register on November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits.
Authorization, pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was provided
for the discharge of material for backfill or bedding for utility lines,
including outfall and intake structures, provided there is no change in
pre-construction contours.
Your work is authorized by this nationwide permit provided it is
accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions. This
nationwide permit does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any
required State or local approval. Please contact Mr. John Dorney, North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, telephone [phone], to
obtain a waiver or water quality certification for the proposed work. This
permit is effective upon receipt of the waiver or certification.
This verification will be valid for 2 years from the date of this letter
unless the nationwide authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. Also,
this verification will remain valid for the 2 years if, during that period,
the nationwide permit authorization is reissued without modification or the
activity complies with any subsequent modification of the nationwide permit
authorization. If during the 2 years, the nationwide permit authorization
expires or is suspended or revoked, or is modified, such that the activity
would no longer comply with the terms and conditions of the nationwide permit,
activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under
contract to commence in reliance upon the nationwide permit will remain
.r01
t "
-2-
authorized provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the date of
the nationwide permit's expiration, modification or revocation, unless
discretionary authority has been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify,
suspend, or revoke the authorization.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Steven Lund, Asheville Field
Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone [phone].
Sincerely,
G. Wayne Wright
