Dear Mr. Fox:
The Division of Water Quality(DWQ)has reviewed your additional information received November 28, 2011,
for the subject project. Susan Wilson, of the DWQ, also conducted a site inspection on December 6, 2011.
Based on the information submitted and the site visit, it does not appear that additional stabilization is necessary
at the site. Rip-rap fill is already in place and there appears to be minimal, if any, additional erosion along the
shoreline of the property. Therefore,the project application is being returned.
could you wish to perform repairs to the existing rip rap-please contact Lisa Leatherman, Duke Energy-
Lake Services at(828) 369-4513 and Robby Shelton, Jackson County Planning at(828) 631-2256.
The original rip-rap fill was permitted for Robert and Mary Guerin(DWQ Project#05-1698). A copy of that
permit is attached. Please keep this for your records.
Please call Susan Wilson at(828) 296-4665, if you have any questions.

Dear Mr. Pryor:
The Division of Water Quality(DWQ)has reviewed your application for a No Exposure Certification for Exclusion(NE)for
the subject facility. Based on the information provided, several.site visits conducted by Ms. Susan Wilson of the Asheville
Regional Office, and results of upstream and downstream sampling,the NE has been approved. DWQ is also hereby
rescinding your current permit Certificate of Coverage,NCG210021.
Please note that you are obligated to maintain no-exposure conditions at your facility. If conditions change such that your
facility can no longer qualify for a NE,you are obligated to immediately obtain NPDES permit coverage for your
�tormwater discharge. Otherwise,the discharge becomes subject to enforcement as an un-permitted discharge. Your NE
does not expire. In order to help assure that your facility stays in compliance with all of the conditions in the
Certification,you must self-recertify your facility at least annually. Please see the attachment for information on self-
recertification.
Your conditional exclusion from permitting does not affect your facility's legal requirements to obtain environmental permits

Inspection Date: 12/08/2011 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Follow-up
Inspection Summary:
Present during inspection were Tim Knopf,John Peck and Mark Curtis.This was a follow up inspection. Required action
from 4/14/11 inspection had been completed. Location Map had been updated. SDO#5 had increased treatment units
and retention time. Inspector performed onsite pH and Turbidity of SDO#5. pH was 7.2 s.u. and Turbidity was 37 NTU.
TSS was analyzed for SDO#5 by Asheville lab with a result of 7.3 mg/I. SDO#5 is considered WW and to be sampled
quarterly.The washing area and residual wash water from the plant can drain to.SDO#5.
SD03#was previously noted as being a WW outfall but was re-evaluated and is a SW outfall to be sampled
semi-annually.The portion of the plant that drains to SDO#3 is crushing not washing.
The process wastewater basins (recycling)were undergoing maintenance (sediment removal)during inspection.
Qualitative Monitoring Yes No NA NE
Has the facility conducted its Qualitative Monitoring semi,,annually,,?, ■ fl ❑ ❑
Comment: Explained evaluating "erosion at or immediately below outfall'. SDO#5 has
some erosion at outfall.
Analytical Monitoring Yes No NA NE
Has the facility conducted its Analytical monitoring? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑
#Has the facility conducted its Analytical monitoring from Vehicle Maintenance areas? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑
Comment:
Permit and Outfalls Yes No NA NE
#Is a copy of the Permit and the Certificate of Coverage available at the site? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑
#Were all outfalls observed during the inspection? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑
#If the facility has representative outfall status,is it properly documented by the Division? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑
#Has the facility evaluated all illicit(non stormwater)discharges? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑
Comment: SD0#1 is a pond that receives mine dewatering and is considered a
wastewater(WW)discharge outfall
SDO#2 is overland flow and receives runoff from vehicle maintenance and is considered
a stormwater(SW)outfall with vehicle maintenance requirements.
SDO#3 was determined during this inspection to be,a SW discharge instead of
previously thought WW.
SDO#4 is an intermediate point and not a final discharge point so it is not necessary to
sample this location. SD0#1 is the final discharge point for these associated flows.
SDO#5 is overland flows from stock piles and plant area and is considered a WW
discharge because of the residual wash waters. SDO#5 is also the drainage area for
the Asphalt facility(Mid State). Vulcan and Mid State are leaning towards seperating
their discharge. Vulcan is considering a berm or possibly a pipe to isolate their overland
flows from Mid State flows.
Also SDO#5 did have some erosion at the outfall that needed repair.

Overall, the facility appeared to be adequately maintained and properly operated. It is recommended that
grit accumulation in the aeration basins be checked as well as the diffusers as some appeared to not be
providing adequate mixing. It is also recommended that influent samples be collected occasionally in order
to determine loading on the plants. Also, please review your chain-of-custody procedure regarding how
samples are collected and preserved. It is suggested that you discuss this matter with your contract lab.
During the inpsection it was observed that an ammonia nitrogen sample was preserved with Nitric Acid
(HNO3), sample preservation protocol requires preservation with Sulfuric Acid (H2SO4).

Permit: NCG020177 Owner-Facility: Vulcan Construction Materials LP
Inspection Date: 12/08/2011 Inspection Type: Compliance Evaluation Reason for Visit: Routine
Inspection Summary:
Toured quarry and outfalls with Tim Knopf,John Peck, and Ryan Haas. Went through some paperwork and reiterated
importance of data transference and documentation. Cleared up some questions regarding these issues. Discussed
sampling and no flow reporting. I will get back with them on consensus regarding gathering samples within the first 30
minutes vs not sampling at all if they cannot get sample in first 30 minutes.
Vulcan will be requesting Representative Outfall Status(ROS)for Outfall#3 and#4 which during the inspection did not
pose any concerns to receiving waters. Once ROS is granted Qualitative and erosion control inspections will continue for
outfalls 3#and#4 areas to make sure rills/gullies don't form, etc.Analytical and Qualitative Monitoring are required at
Outfalls#1 and#2 which suffice in representing this quarrys discharge to surface waters.
Qualitative Monitoring Yes No NA NE
Has the facility conducted its Qualitative Monitoring semi-annually? ■ 0 ❑
Comment: Informed them to keep an eye on sediment at outfalls, specifically outfall
#2. Qualitative monitoring will continue for all outfalls.
Analytical Monitoring Yes No NA NE
Has the facility conducted its Analytical monitoring? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑
#Has the facility conducted its Analytical monitoring from Vehicle Maintenance areas? 0000
Comment: SDO#2 was discussed with regard to no flow notation in 2010, as well as it
being the outfall that will need to be maintained the most. This outfall could have a
small potential to receive wastewater(WW), but did not appear to be during the
inspection. The wash screenings goes through 2 basins to clean stone stockpiles
without an apparent discharge. So, as long as they can maintain no discharge of the
wash water then SDO#2 is to be analytically monitored as stormwater(SW). SD0#1 is
to be analytically monitored as WW.
Permit and Outfalls Yes No NA NE
#Is a copy of the Permit and the Certificate of Coverage available at the site? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑
#Were all outfalls observed during the inspection? E ❑ ❑ I_l
#If the facility has representative outfall status,is it properly documented by the Division? ❑ ❑ ■ ❑
#Has the facility evaluated all illicit(non stormwater)discharges? ■ ❑ ❑ ❑
Comment: SDO#2 needed some maintenance at the inlet of the discharge pipe. It
also had minor sediment deposited at the outfall.The minor deposit at the outfall did not
go beyond the outfall small area or impact receiving waters. This outfall will require
continuous maintenance since the only treatment unit is a small rock dam.
SDO#2 discharge flowed to a small trib through a nice wetland to the river.
SD0#1 is a pond discharging to a tributary. No impacts to receiving waters were noted
at SDO#1.

Dear Mr. Trew:
Attached is the Fast-Track Application which you submitted for the subject project. The application is
being returned for the following reason(s):
1) Section B 10. indicates 72 feet of 4-inch line is to be included in the project. However, 4-inch
diameter pipe does not meet the 15A NCAC 02T .0305 Design Criteria rules for Sewer
Extension projects.
2) Please clarify the flow requested for the subject project.
• Section B.7. states the volume of flow to be allocated for this sewer extension is zero (0) gallons
per day.
• Section B.8. states that the sewer flow is zero (0) because it is sewer rehabilitation.
• Section B.10. states a flow total of 4,150 gallons per day.
• The enclosed FTSE form request includes a request for zero (0) flow
To complete the review process, the project and application must meet the design criteria noted above
and provide clear flow information. We look forward to receiving a corrected and complete application.

not be predicted to have water quality impacts on the receiving water. These samples
were split and sent to Environmental Testing Solutions, Inc. The chronic Ceriodaphnia

the differing split test results. If it is determined that an additional split test is needed, then

The landfill is located at the headwaters of Woodruff Branch. The headwater tributaries have historically been altered by
instream basins. These tribs are also impacted by a road system. Finally the one tributary originates at the toe of an old
cell. The best option for these impacts is maintenance management. The landfill management has installed a trap above
the one tributary to assist in controlling the sediment load from the office/workshop area. The ditchlines/stormwater
conveyances of the road system in this headwater tributary area have been improved. There is still some rock
stabilization needed along this conveyance system that the management will address. It is important to note that this
area will require high maintenance to avoid further stream impacts. The main goal of the road system and ditchline
maintenance is to keep the sediment load to these basins to a minimal. If the basin load can be kept to a minimum and
the basins establish wetland plants that could be beneficial as well. Inspection of this area weekly and following every
0.05 inch of rain is required and will be an essential management tool. When these inspections reveal repairs are
needed,the repairs should take place within 24 hours or prior to the next rain event.
Monthly analytical data submitted to DWQ from the landfill indicated the occasional elevated suspended solids, COD and
bacteria levels in Woodruff Branch. The most feasible means at this point to avoid elevated parameters in Woodruff
Branch is excellent maintenance as noted above. Facility can go back to semi-annual sampling.
A study was performed by the DWQ Environmental Sciences Branch at the mouth of Woodruff Branch to evaluate this
watersheds benthic community for impacts from the landfill. The results of this study indicate the lower reach of Woodruff
Branch is not impacted by the landfill.
�j
The primary treatment basin still needs the berm created in it to avoid short circuiting the influent flows to the outfall
structure. This berm will cause water to flow around it creating more treatment time. Facility is creating berm as materials
come available. Another improvement made at the facility was rock stabilization at the inlet to the basin area which is
located the toe of active cell. Again this will require constant maintenance and the same inspection and repair regime as
noted above will be necessary in this area.

SUBJECT: Scotty's Mobile Village
Deemed Permitted Wastewater Collection System WQCSD0357
McDowell County
Dear Mr. Scott and Ms. Conley:
On January 5, 2012, Susan Wilson and Kevin Barnett, from the Asheville Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality (DWQ), conducted a site inspection at Scotty's Mobile Village in
McDowell County. The site inspection was prompted by complaint of raw sewage leaving the
Mobile Village.
At the time of inspection, Ms. Wilson and Mr. Barnett noted that repairs had been completed at an
individual wastewater pump station for mobile home#223 within Scotty's Mobile Village. No
raw sewage was apparent in the ditch line below the trailer(and no raw sewage was noted in the
ditch to the unnamed tributary to the Catawba River).
As a result of the site inspection and file review,the DWQ reminds you that under the Deemed
Permitted Wastewater Collection System regulations, you are required to perform the following:
1. Effectively maintain and operate the system at all times to prevent discharge to land or
surface waters, and to prevent any contravention of ground or surface water standards.
2. Develop and actively maintain a map of the sewer system.
3. Develop an operation and maintenance (O&M)plan including pump station inspection
frequency, preventative maintenance schedule, spare parts inventory, and overflow
response.

The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated June 30, 2011 (received July 14, 2011) and
modified application dated November 8, 2011 (received January 12, 2012), including the environmental commitments
made in the application letter. After reviewing your application, we have decided that these impacts are covered by
General Water Quality Certification No. 3820, corresponding to the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Regional General
Permit Numbers 31. In addition,you should acquire any other federal, state or local permits before you proceed with your
project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed
regulations.
This approval is valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified below). Should
your project change,you must notify the DWQ and submit 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 wetland fills for this project(now or in the future)exceed one acre, or if total impacts to streams(now
or in the future) exceed 150 linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506
(h) (6) and (7). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any
additional conditions listed below.
Condition(s)of Certification:
1. There shall be no excavation from, or waste disposal into,jurisdictional wetlands or waters associated with this permit
without appropriate modification. Should waste or borrow sites, or access roads to waste or borrow sites, be located
in wetlands or streams, compensatory mitigation will be required since that is a direct impact from road construction---\
activities. �.
2. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters unless otherwise approved by this
Certification.
3. 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.
4. The permittee shall use /Design Standards in Sensitive Watersheds/ [15A NCAC 413.0124 (a)-(e)] in areas
draining to trout waters. However, due to the size of the project, NCDOT shall not be required to meet 15A
NCAC 4B .0124(a) regarding the maximum amount of uncovered area. Temporary cover (wheat, millet, or
similar annual grain) or permanent herbaceous cover shall be planted on all bare soil within 15 business days
of ground disturbing activities to provide erosion control.
Tall fescue shall not be used in the establishment of temporary or permanent groundcover within riparian
areas. For the establishment of permanent herbaceous cover, erosion control matting shall be used in
conjunction with an appropriate native seed mix on disturbed soils within the riparian area and on disturbed
steep slopes with the following exception. Erosion control matting is not necessary if the area is contained

by perimeter erosion control devices such as silt fence, temporary sediment ditches, basins, etc. Matting
should be secured in place with staples, stakes, or wherever possible, live stakes of native trees. Erosion
control matting placed in riparian areas shall not contain a nylon mesh grid, which can impinge and entrap
small animals. For the establishment of temporary groundcover within riparian areas,hydroseeding along
with wood or cellulose based hydro mulch applied from a fertilizer-and limestone-free tank is allowable at the
appropriate rate in conjunction with the erosion control measures. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and wood
cellulose mulch into surface waters is prohibited. Riparian areas are defined as a distance 25 feet landward
from top of stream bank.
5. For projects impacting waters classified by the NC Environmental Management Commission as Trout Jr),
High Quality Waters (HQW), or Water Supply I or II (WSI, WSII) stormwater shall be directed to vegetated
buffer areas, grass-lined ditches or other means appropriate to the site for the purpose of pretreating storm
water runoff prior to discharging directly into streams. Mowing of existing vegetated buffers is strongly
discouraged.
6. NCDOT will need to adhere to all appropriate in-water work moratoria prescribed by the NC Wildlife
Resources Commission.
7. NCDOT is providing off-site mitigation of 53 linear feet through the North Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement
Program by letter dated December 20,2011.
8. Unless otherwise approved in this certification, placement of culverts and other structures in open waters and
streams shall be placed below the elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter
greater than 48 inches, and 20 percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48
inches, to allow low flow passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other
structures including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result in
dis-equilibrium of wetlands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream of the above
structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is being maintained if requested
in writing by NCDWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock or other limiting features
encountered during construction, please contact NCDWQ for guidance on how to proceed and to determine
whether or not a permit modification will be required.
9. If multiple pipes or barrels are required, they shall be designed to mimic natural stream cross section as closely as
possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where appropriate. Widening the stream
channel should be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet or outlet end of structures typically decreases water
velocity causing sediment deposition that requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage.
10. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area. Approved BMP measures from the
most current version of NCDOT Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags, rock berms,
cofferdams and other diversion structures shall be used to prevent excavation in flowing water.
11. The stream channel shall be excavated no deeper than the natural bed material of the stream, to the maximum extent
practicable. Efforts must be made to minimize impacts to the stream banks, as well as to vegetation responsible for
maintaining stream bank stability. Any applicable riparian buffer impact for access to stream channel shall be
temporary and be revegetated with native riparian species.
12. Strict adherence to the most recent version of NCDOT's Best Management Practices for Bridge Demolition and
Removal approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers is a condition of the 401 Water Quality Certification.
13. The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream, above and below the crossing, shall not be modified. Disturbed
floodplains and streams shall be restored to natural geomorphic conditions.
14. Native riparian vegetation (e.g. rhododendron, dog hobble, willows, alders, sycamores, dogwoods, black walnut and
red maple) must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing season
following completion of construction.
15. The use of rip-rap above the Normal High Water Mark shall be minimized. Any rip-rap placed for stream
stabilization shall be placed in stream channels in such a manner that it does not impede aquatic life passage.

Dr. Gregory Thorpe,Ph.D.

16. Rip-rap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner that precludes aquatic
life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly designed, sized and installed.
17. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channels in order to minimize
sedimentation and reduce the introduction of other pollutants into the stream.
18. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent
contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants,hydraulic fluids,or other toxic materials.
19. The Permittee shall ensure that the final design drawings adhere to the permit and to the permit drawings submitted
for approval.
20. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface waters is
prohibited.
21. If concrete is used during construction, a dry work area shall be maintained to prevent direct contact between curing
concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured concrete shall not be discharged to surface
waters due to the potential for elevated pH and possible aquatic life and fish kills.
22. No rock, sand or other materials shall be dredged from the stream channel except where authorized by this
certification.
23. A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be maintained on the construction site at all times. In addition, the
Water Quality Certification and all subsequent modifications, if any, shall be maintained with the Division Engineer
and the on-site project manager.
24. All fill slopes located in jurisdictional wetlands shall be placed at slopes no flatter than 3:1, unless otherwise
authorized by this certification.
25. During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in waters of the U.S., or
protected riparian buffers.
26. The outside buffer,wetland or water boundary located within the construction corridor approved by this authorizatio
shall be clearly marked by highly visible fencing prior to any land disturbing activities. Impacts to areas within the
fencing are prohibited unless otherwise authorized by this certification.
27. The permittee and its authorized agents shall conduct its activities in a manner consistent with State water quality
standards (including any requirements resulting from compliance with §303(d) of the Clean Water Act)and any other
appropriate requirements of State and Federal law. If NCDWQ determines that such standards or laws are not being
met(including the failure to sustain a designated or achieved use)or that State of Federal law is being violated, or that
further conditions are necessary to assure compliance,NCDWQ may reevaluate and modify this certification.
28. The issuance of this certification does not exempt the Permittee form complying with any and all statutes, rules,
regulations or ordinances that may be imposed by other government agencies (i.e. local, state, and federal) having
jurisdiction, including but not limited to applicable buffer rules, stormwater management rules, soil erosion and
sedimentation control requirements, etc.
29. The Permittee shall report any violations of this certification to the Division of Water Quality within 24-hours of
discovery.
30. Upon completion of the project (including any impacts at associated borrow or waste sites), the NCDOT Division
Engineer shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of Completion Form" to notify NCDWQ when all
work included in the §401 Certification has been completed.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in criminal and/or
civil penalties. This Certification shall become null and void unless the above conditions are made conditions of the
Federal 404 and/or Coastal Area Management Act Permit. This Certification shall expire upon the expiration of the 404
or CAMA permit.

Dear Mr. Lytle:
Your response has been reviewed by this office. Also, a follow up site visit has been performed
to evaluate the statements contained in your response. Further clarification/information are
needed in this matter.
With respect to permitting, no written authorization is required for a strict replacement in the
footprint of the previous installation. That being the case, you are required to comply with the
conditions in the 401 Water Quality Certification(WQC# 3687,please find attached) for
structure maintenance. The lower crossing appears to have been lengthened by 20 linear feet and
the upper 10 foot culvert has been replaced with a 20 foot culvert. A discussion as to why the
extensions were needed should be submitted as part of your response.
There remains an issue with the additional channel excavation above the upper culvert, which
remains unstable and continues to contribute sediment downstream. If the additional lengths of
culvert were not to be used in this location, a discussion as to how the stream will be restored to a
stable pattern, dimension and profile must be submitted to this office for review. Should you
desire to install the additional lengths of culvert, a Pre-Construction Notification(please find
attached) must be submitted to the US Army Corps of Engineers,the NC Wildlife Resources
Commission, and to the Division of Water Quality, along with processing fee, for review.

The project should be constructed in accordance with your application dated December 16, 2011 (received December 22,
2011), including the environmental commitments made in the application letter. After reviewing your application, we
have decided that these impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 3820, corresponding to the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers Regional General Permit Numbers 14. In addition,you should acquire any other federal, state
or local permits before you proceed with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-
Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations.
This approval is valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified below). Should__
our project change,you must notify the DW and submit a new application. If the roe is sold the new owner musj
Y P j g ,Y fY Q pP property rtY
be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter, and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. It—
total wetland fills for this project(now or in the future)exceed one acre,or if total impacts to streams(now
or in the future) exceed 150 linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506
(h) (6) and (7). For this approval to he valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any
additional conditions listed below.
Condition(s)of Certification:
1. There shall be no excavation from, or waste disposal into,jurisdictional wetlands or waters associated with this permit
without appropriate modification. Should waste or borrow sites, or access roads to waste or borrow sites, be located
in wetlands or streams, compensatory mitigation will be required since that is a direct impact from road construction
activities.
2. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters unless otherwise approved by this
Certification.
3. 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.

Mr. J. B. Setzer, P.E.
January 23, 2012
Page Three
b. 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.
c. The reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the reclamation in accordance with the
requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
4. For projects impacting waters classified by the NC Environmental Management Commission as Trout (Tr),
High Quality Waters (HQW), or Water Supply I or II (WSI, WSII) stormwater shall be directed to vegetated
buffer areas, grass-lined ditches or other means appropriate to the site for the purpose of pretreating storm
water runoff prior to discharging directly into streams. Mowing of existing vegetated buffers is strongly
discouraged.
S. NCDOT will need to adhere to all appropriate in-water work moratoria prescribed by the NC Wildlife
Resources Commission.
6. Impacts associated with the utility line construction at Site No. 9 are included in the impacts for the culvert
construction at Site No. 9.
7. NCDOT is providing off-site mitigation of 675 linear feet of streams and 0.03 acres of wetlands through the North
Carolina Ecosystem Enhancement Program by letter dated December 15, 2011.
8. Unless otherwise approved in this certification, placement of culverts and other structures in open waters and
streams shall be placed below the elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter
greater than 48 inches, and 20 percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48
inches, to allow low flow passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other
structures including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result in
dis-equilibrium of wetlands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream of the above
structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is being maintained if requested
in writing by NCDWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock or other limiting features
encountered during construction, please contact NCDWQ for guidance on how to proceed and to determine
whether or not a permit modification will be required.
9. If multiple pipes or barrels are required, they shall be designed to mimic natural stream cross section as closely as
possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where appropriate. Widening the stream
channel should be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet or outlet end of structures typically decreases water
velocity causing sediment deposition that requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage.
10. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area. Approved BMP measures from the
most current version of NCDOT Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags, rock berms,
cofferdams and other diversion structures shall be used to prevent excavation in flowing water.
11. The stream channel shall be excavated no deeper than the natural bed material of the stream, to the maximum extent
practicable. Efforts must be made to minimize impacts to the stream banks, as well as to vegetation responsible for
maintaining stream bank stability. Any applicable riparian buffer impact for access to stream channel shall be
temporary and be revegetated with native riparian species.
12. Strict adherence to the most recent version of NCDOT's Best Management Practices for Bridge Demolition and
Removal approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers is a condition of the 401 Water Quality Certification.
13. The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream, above and below the crossing, shall not be modified. Disturbed
floodplains and streams shall be restored to natural geomorphic conditions.
14. Native riparian vegetation (e.g. rhododendron, dog hobble, willows, alders, sycamores, dogwoods, black walnut and
red maple) must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing season
following completion of construction.
15. The use of rip-rap above the Normal High Water Mark shall be minimized. Any rip-rap placed for stream
stabilization shall be placed in stream channels in such a manner that it does not impede aquatic life passage.
16. Rip-rap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner that precludes aquatic
life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly designed, sized and installed.

Mr. J. B. Setzer,P.E.
January 20,2012
Page Four
17. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channels in order to minimize
sedimentation and reduce the introduction of other pollutants into the stream.
18. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent
contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants,hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials.
19. The Permittee shall ensure that the final design drawings adhere to the permit and to the permit drawings submitted
for approval.
20. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface waters is
prohibited.
21. If concrete is used during construction, a dry work area shall be maintained to prevent direct contact between curing
concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured concrete shall not be discharged to surface
waters due to the potential for elevated pH and possible aquatic life and fish kills.
22. No rock, sand or other materials shall be dredged from the stream channel except where authorized by this
certification.
23. A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be maintained on the construction site at all times. In addition, the
Water Quality Certification and all subsequent modifications, if any, shall be maintained with the Division Engineer
and the on-site project manager.
24. All fill slopes located in jurisdictional wetlands shall be placed at slopes no flatter than 3:1, unless otherwise
authorized by this certification.
25. During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in waters of the U.S., or
protected riparian buffers.
26. The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary located within the construction corridor approved by this authorizatior-
shall be clearly marked by highly visible fencing prior to any !and disturbing activities.- Impacts to areas within thi:,,--)
fencing are prohibited unless otherwise authorized by this certification.
27. The permittee and its authorized agents shall conduct its activities in a manner consistent with State water quality
standards (including any requirements resulting from compliance with §303(d)of the Clean Water Act) and any other
appropriate requirements of State and Federal law. If NCDWQ determines that such standards or laws are not being
met(including the failure to sustain a designated or achieved use)or that State of Federal law is being violated, or that
further conditions are necessary to assure compliance,NCDWQ may reevaluate and modify this certification.
28. The issuance of this certification does not exempt the Permittee form complying with any and all statutes, rules,
regulations or ordinances that may be imposed by other government agencies (i.e. local, state, and federal) having
jurisdiction, including but not limited to applicable buffer rules, stormwater management rules, soil erosion and
sedimentation control requirements,etc.
29. The Permittee shall report any violations of this certification to the Division of Water Quality within 24-hours of
discovery.
30. Upon completion of the project (including any impacts at associated borrow or waste sites), the NCDOT Division
Engineer shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of Completion Form" to notify NCDWQ when all
work included in the §401 Certification has been completed.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in criminal and/or
civil penalties. This Certification shall become null and void unless the above conditions are made conditions of the
Federal 404 and/or Coastal Area Management Act Permit. This Certification shall expire upon the expiration of the 404
or CAMA permit.

Dear Ms. Fox:
This letter is offered in response to the site inspection conducted January 13, 2012 with you, as well as Tyler
Crumbley of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
As stated during the site inspection,the approximately 15 feet of pipe and cistern placed in the stream constitute
fill material, and have not been authorized by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or the Division of Water
Quality. This is in violation of Part 15A of North Carolina Administrative Code 2H .0500. During the site
visit, you agreed to remove the fill (pipe/cistern). Removal of the fill material should comply with the timeline
presented by the Corps in the forthcoming Notification of Unauthorized Activity. After removal,the area
should be stabilized to prevent sediment migration downstream.
We discussed some potential alternatives to withdraw a portion of the water from the receiving stream and to do
this "off-line" of the stream(or to find an alternate source of water for your horses). I also referred you to Mr.
Leslie Smathers [phone], Haywood County Soil and Water, as his office may be able to offer assistance.
Please be aware that the Division of Water Quality has identified the stream through your property as an
"intermittent" stream; the stream identification sheet is attached with this letter. A portion of that streamflow
must always be allowed to continue throughout the stream reach. You may not remove all the stream flow.
Should you not remove the fill material, you may be subject to a civil penalty assessment of up to $25,000.00
per day for each violation. This letter in no way precludes this Office for taking action on this or any other
violation.

Dear Mr. Burnette and Ms. Burnette:
This letter is offered in response to the site inspection conducted January 13, 2012 with you, as well as Tyler
Crumbley of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
As stated during the site inspection,the approximately 120 feet of pipe placed in the stream constitutes fill
f,„->material, and has not been authorized by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers or the Division of Water Quality
'DWQ). This is in violation of Part 15A of North Carolina Administrative Code 2H .0500. During the site
visit, you agreed to remove the fill (pipe). Removal of the fill material should comply with the timeline
presented by the Corps in the forthcoming Notification of Unauthorized Activity.
We also discussed stabilization of the stream upon removal of the pipe. For this small intermittent stream,
DWQ would recommend matting/staking of the banks (jute/coir matting is preferred). Strawing/seeding
underneath matting should provide adequate stabilization during the winter months.
Should you not remove the fill material, you may be subject to a civil penalty assessment of up to $25,000.00
per day for each violation. This letter in no way precludes this Office for taking action on this or any other
violation.
If you have any questions regarding these matters, please contact me at [phone] or

Dear Mr. Moore:
This letter transmits an assessment of civil penalty in the amount of$6,137.00 ($6,000.00 civil

The violation that occurred is summarized in Attachment A to this letter.
Based upon the above facts, I conclude as a matter of law that the City of Brevard violated the

$137.00 ENFORCEMENT COST
$6,137.00 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into
account the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-
282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State,to the public health, or
to private property resulting from the violation;
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over -
which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and j
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further
enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s). Please submit payment to the attention
of:
Pretreatment Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unit
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1617
OR
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification
for such request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed
below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed.
Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred
or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty assessment
document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a
request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a

,itipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed
statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the
Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In determining whether a remission request
will be approved,the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 14313-282.1(b) was
wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the
violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted
in writing. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your
evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will
provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal
of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that
was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very
important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request for
remission.
In order to request remission, you must complete and submit the enclosed"Request for Remission
of Civil Penalties, Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts"form
within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice. The Division of Water Quality also requests that
you complete and submit the enclosed"Justification for Remission Request." Both forms should
be submitted to the following address:

$137.00 ENFORCEMENT COST
$6,137.00 TOTAL AMOUNT DUE
Pursuant to G.S. 143-215.6A(c), in determining the amount of the penalty I have taken into
account the Findings of Fact and Conclusions of Law and the factors set forth at G.S. 143B-
282.1(b), which are:
(1) The degree and extent of harm to the natural resources of the State,to the public health, or
to private property resulting from the violation;'
(2) The duration and gravity of the violation;
(3) The effect on ground or surface water quantity or quality or on air quality;
(4) The cost of rectifying the damage;
(5) The amount of money saved by noncompliance;
(6) Whether the violation was committed willfully or intentionally;
(7) The prior record of the violator in complying or failing to comply with programs over
which the Environmental Management Commission has regulatory authority; and
(8) The cost to the State of the enforcement procedures.
Within thirty days of receipt of this notice, you must do one of the following:
1. Submit payment of the penalty:
Payment should be made directly to the order of the Department of Environment and Natural
Resources (do not include waiver form). Payment of the penalty will not foreclose further
enforcement action for any continuing or new violation(s). Please submit payment to the attention
of:
Pretreatment Emergency Response and Collection Systems Unit
Division of Water Quality
1617 Mail Service Center
Raleigh,North Carolina 27699-1617
OR
2. Submit a written request for remission or mitigation including a detailed justification
for such request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed
below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed.
Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred
or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty assessment
document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a
request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a

,�pulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed
statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty'should be remitted, and submit it to the
Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In determining whether a remission request
will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors in NCGS 14313-282.1(b)was
wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the
violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted
in writing. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your
evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will
provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal
of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that
was not part of the original remission request considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very
important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request for
remission.
In order to request remission,you must complete and submit the enclosed "Request for Remission
of Civil Penalties, Waiver of Right to an Administrative Hearing, and Stipulation of Facts" form
- within thirty (30) days of receipt of this notice. The Division of Water Quality also requests that

for such request:
Please be aware that a request for remission is limited to consideration of the five factors listed
below as they may relate to the reasonableness of the amount of the civil penalty assessed.
Requesting remission is not the proper procedure for contesting whether the violation(s) occurred
or the accuracy of any of the factual statements contained in the civil penalty assessment
document. Because a remission request forecloses the option of an administrative hearing, such a
request must be accompanied by a waiver of your right to an administrative hearing and a
stipulation and agreement that no factual or legal issues are in dispute. Please prepare a detailed

.statement that establishes why you believe the civil penalty should be remitted, and submit it to the
Division of Water Quality at the address listed below. In determining whether a remission request
will be approved, the following factors shall be considered:
(1) whether one or more of the civil penalty assessment factors inNCGS 14313-282.1(b) was
wrongfully applied to the detriment of the petitioner;
(2) whether the violator promptly abated continuing environmental damage resulting from the
violation;
(3) whether the violation was inadvertent or a result of an accident;
(4) whether the violator had been assessed civil penalties for any previous violations; or
whether payment of the civil penalty will prevent payment for the remaining necessary
remedial actions.
Please note that all evidence presented in support of your request for remission must be submitted
in writing.. The Director of the Division of the Division of Water Quality will review your
evidence and inform you of his decision in the matter of your remission request. The response will
provide details regarding the case status, directions for payment, and provision for further appeal
of the penalty to the Environmental Management Commission's Committee on Civil Penalty
Remissions (Committee). Please be advised that the Committee cannot consider information that
was not part of the original remission request.considered by the Director. Therefore, it is very
important that you prepare a complete and thorough statement in support of your request for
remission.

Subject: Technical Assistance 'Follow-up' Inspection
Coats North American, WWTP
NPDES Permit No. NC0004243
Dear Mr. Sisk: McDowell County
Janet Cantwell and I of the Asheville Regional Office conducted a Technical Assistance Inspection
'Follow-up' of the NPDES system that serves the Coats American-Sevier Finishing Plant WWTP on
January 18, 2012. The reason for the Technical Assistance follow-up was to review areas of the
WWTP system that have caused the NPDES permit 'non-compliance' the facility experienced
during the early part of 2011, and the remedies that are implemented to correct the non-
compliance. The assistance and cooperation of Mr. Phillip Pittman and Ms. Sara Hudgins in
conducting the Technical Assistance was greatly appreciated. Based on records reviewed, on-site
discussions with Phillip and Sara, the Coats American WWTP NPDES system was determined to
be in compliance with permit NC0004243. A report is attached for your records and findings are
summarized.
Site/System Review
The current WWTP NPDES System consists of an equalization basin, aeration basin,2 secondary
clarifiers , a chlorine contact basin with de-chlorination, and effluent post aeration. During the
Inspection the discharge observed going into the receiving stream designated as 'North Fork of the
Catawba River' in the Catawba River Basin, did not appear to be causing a negative impact, nor
were there any indication of foam or visible solids in the discharge.
Suggestions/Recommendations
The current Solids accumulation in the aeration basin system appears to be more uniform and well
mixed with the implementation of the diffused aeration system and the `Attached Growth' "Bug-
Houses"that have been implemented by Phillip and Sara. Several of the current 'floating' aeration
system could be used in the EQ basin prior to the Aeration Basin to provide some aeration and
-- mixing prior to being entered into the Aeration Basin.

T/A Follow-up, Page 2 of 2
On-site observations of the 2 secondary clarifiers still indicate extensive deterioration of the effluent
weirs and baffles allowing 'pin-floc' suspended solids to be discharged from the system. On-site
indications revealed Coats has received the 'new' fiberglass weirs, but time and staffing
requirements have not allowed installation as of the date of this follow-up. The clarifier weir and
baffle situation presents maintenance issues in addition to causing deterioration of the final
effluent. Please review this condition and try to get the new weirs and baffles installed. The
situation can definitely create conditions that support non-compliance with NPDES permit
conditions.
Also, Coats requested a NPDES permit 'modification' that reflected current production rates more
accurately, than the NPDES permit issued in 2010. On-site discussions with Coats staff indicated
implementation of the permit conditions and limitations upon its becoming effective in February
2012.
If there are questions or additional information is needed regarding system operation,
maintenance, or a NPDES System permit question, please let me know. Thank you for the
opportunity to conduct this Technical Assistance Inspection.

This approval is valid solely for the purpose and design described in your application (unless modified below). Should
your project change,you must notify the DWQ and submit 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 wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, or if total impacts to streams (now or in the
future)exceed 150 linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h)(6) and
(7). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional
conditions listed below.
Condition(s) of Certification:
1. There shall be no excavation from, or waste disposal into,jurisdictional wetlands or waters associated with this permit
without appropriate modification. Should waste or borrow sites, or access roads,to waste or borrow sites, be located
in wetlands or streams, compensatory mitigation will be required since that is a direct impact from road construction
activities.
2. Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters unless otherwise approved by this
Certification. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall
be removed and the natural grade restored upon completion of the project.
3. 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, ant
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.
4. Unless otherwise approved in this certification, placement of culverts and other structures in open waters and
streams shall be placed below the elevation of the streambed by one foot for all culverts with a diameter
greater than 48 inches, and 20 percent of the culvert diameter for culverts having a diameter less than 48
inches, to allow low flow passage of water and aquatic life. Design and placement of culverts and other
structures including temporary erosion control measures shall not be conducted in a manner that may result in
dis-equilibrium of wetlands or streambeds or banks, adjacent to or upstream and down stream of the above
structures. The applicant is required to provide evidence that the equilibrium is being maintained if requested
in writing by NCDWQ. If this condition is unable to be met due to bedrock or other limiting features
encountered during construction, please contact NCDWQ for guidance on how to proceed and to determine
whether or not a permit modification will be required.
5. NCDOT will need to adhere to all appropriate in-water work moratoria(including the use of pile driving or vibration
techniques)prescribed by the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission.

6. Channel relocations shall be completed and stabilized,and approved on site by DWQ staff,prior to diverting water
into the new channel. Stream banks shall be matted with coir-fiber matting. Vegetation used for bank stabilization
shall be limited to native riparian vegetation, and should include establishment of a vegetated buffer on both sides of
the relocated channel to the maximum extent practical. Also,rip-rap may be allowed if it is necessary to maintain the
physical integrity of the stream,but the applicant must provide written justification and any calculations used to
determine the extent of rip-rap coverage requested. Once the stream has been turned into the new channel, it may be
necessary to relocate stranded fish to the new channel to prevent fish kills.
7. If multiple pipes or barrels are required, they shall be designed to mimic natural stream cross section as closely as
possible including pipes or barrels at flood plain elevation and/or sills where appropriate. Widening the stream
channel should be avoided. Stream channel widening at the inlet or outlet end of structures typically decreases water
velocity causing sediment deposition that requires increased maintenance and disrupts aquatic life passage.
8. All work in or adjacent to stream waters shall be conducted in a dry work area. Approved BMP measures from the
most current version of NCDOT Construction and Maintenance Activities manual such as sandbags, rock berms,
cofferdams and other diversion structures shall be used to prevent excavation in flowing water.
9. The stream channel shall be excavated no deeper than the natural bed material of the stream, to the maximum extent
practicable. Efforts must be made to minimize impacts to the stream banks, as well as to vegetation responsible for
maintaining stream bank stability. Any applicable riparian buffer impact for access to stream channel shall be
temporary and be revegetated with native riparian species.
10. The dimension, pattern and profile of the stream, above and below the crossing, shall not be modified. Disturbed
floodplains and streams shall be restored to natural geomorphic conditions.
11. Native riparian vegetation (e.g. rhododendron, dog hobble, willows, alders, sycamores, dogwoods, black walnut and
red maple) must be reestablished within the construction limits of the project by the end of the growing season
following completion of construction.
12. The use of rip-rap above the Normal High Water Mark shall be minimized. Any rip-rap placed for stream
stabilization shall be placed in stream channels in such a manner that it does not impede aquatic life passage.
13 Rip-rap shall not be placed in the active thalweg channel or placed in the streambed in a manner that precludes aquatic
life passage. Bioengineering boulders or structures should be properly designed, sized and installed.
14. Heavy equipment shall be operated from the banks rather than in the stream channels in order to minimize
sedimentation and reduce the introduction of other pollutants into the stream.
15. All mechanized equipment operated near surface waters must be regularly inspected and maintained to prevent
contamination of stream waters from fuels,lubricants,hydraulic fluids, or other toxic materials.
16. The Permittee shall ensure that the final design drawings adhere to the permit and to the permit drawings submitted
for approval.
17. Discharging hydroseed mixtures and washing out hydroseeders and other equipment in or adjacent to surface waters is
prohibited.
18 If concrete is used during construction, a dry work area shall be maintained to prevent direct contact between curing
concrete and stream water. Water that inadvertently contacts uncured concrete shall not be discharged to surface
waters due to the potential for elevated pH and possible aquatic life and fish kills.
19. No rock, sand or other materials shall be dredged from the stream channel, except where authorized by this
certification.
20. A copy of this Water Quality Certification shall be maintained on the construction site at all times. In addition, the
Water Quality Certification and all subsequent modifications, if any, shall be maintained with the Division Engineer
and the on-site project manager.
21. All fill slopes located in jurisdictional wetlands shall be placed at slopes no flatter than 3:1, unless otherwise
authorized by this certification.
22. During the construction of the project, no staging of equipment of any kind is permitted in waters of the U.S., or
protected riparian buffers.

Mr.J. B. Setzer,P.E. \
January 31, 2012

23. The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary located within the construction corridor approved by this authorization
shall be clearly marked by highly visible fencing prior to any land disturbing activities. Impacts to areas within the
fencing are prohibited unless otherwise authorized by this certification.
24. The permittee and its authorized agents shall conduct its activities in a manner consistent with State water quality
standards (including any requirements resulting from compliance with §303(d) of the Clean Water Act)and any other
appropriate requirements of State and Federal law. If NCDWQ determines that such standards or laws are not being
met(including the failure to sustain a designated or achieved use) or that State of Federal law is being violated, or that
further conditions are necessary to assure compliance,NCDWQ may reevaluate and modify this certification.
25. The issuance of this certification does not exempt the Permittee form complying with any and all statutes, rules,
regulations or ordinances that may be imposed by other government agencies (i.e. local, state, and federal) having
jurisdiction, including but not limited to applicable buffer rules, stormwater management rules, soil erosion and
sedimentation control requirements, etc.
26. The Permittee shall report any violations of this certification to the Division of Water Quality within 24-hours of
discovery.
27. Upon completion of the project (including any impacts at associated borrow or waste sites), the NCDOT Division
Engineer shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of Completion Form" to notify NCDWQ when all
work included in the §401 Certification has been completed.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in criminal and/or
civil penalties. This Certification shall become null and void unless the above conditions are made conditions of the
Federal 404 and/or Coastal Area Management Act Permit. This Certification shall expire upon the expiration of the 404
or CAMA permit.
If this Certification is unacceptable to you have the right to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within sixty(60)
days following receipt of this Certification. This request must be in the form of a written petition conforming to Chapter
150B of the North Carolina General Statutes and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings,6714 Mail Service
Center,Raleigh,N.C. 27699-6714. If modifications are made to an original Certification,you have the right to an
adjudicatory hearing on the modifications upon written request within sixty(60)days following receipt of the
Certification. Unless such demands are made,this Certification shall be final and binding.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have

Dear Ms. Elliott:
A Compliance Evaluation Inspection of the Wastewater System that serves Marion Travel Plaza
was conducted on January 18, 2012 by Mr. Don Price and Ms. Janet Cantwell of the Asheville
Regional Office. The assistance and cooperation of Mr. Joe David Hall, in conducting the
inspection was greatly appreciated. Based on records reviewed, on-site discussions with Joe
David Hall and results of Effluent discharge samples collected, Marion Travel Plaza WWTP was
determined to be in compliance with permit NC0086428. A report is attached for your records and
findings are summarized.
Site/System Review
The current WWTP consists of an Flow equalization basin (EQ basin), Influent Pump station with
on-site audible and visual alarms, aeration basin, rectangular secondary clarifier with 'air-lift' return
and waste sludge pumps, tablet chlorination, v-notch weir and float stilling well effluent flow
measurement with chart recorder, and tablet de-chlorination.
On-site observations indicated improved operation of the secondary clarifier; current flow meter
calibration within the last 6 months; and implementation of alkalinity supplements by the ORC
(Operator-in-Responsible Charge); and the testing Influent pump station audible and visual alarm
for proper operation.

CEI,Page 2 of 2
Suggestions/Recommendations
The current system shows signs of improved aeration and mixing, in addition on-site records
indicated Flow meter had been calibrated within the past 6 months, NPDES permit NCO086428
requires "annual' flow meter calibration showing meter capable of accurate measurements
between +/- 10% of actual measurements. Effluent samples are still being collected `just after' de-
chlorination, making representative sampling a problem. Also, there is no clear path to the
receiving stream for collection of representative sampling, and visual observations to be made
regarding stream impacts. The location of the discharge pipe was determined to be in a stormwater
culvert down from the WWTP, in the lower portion`of the parking lot of Marion Travel Plaza.
It is suggested that the facility review their 'options' to continuing this discharge, especially in light
of the shape and condition of the WWTP, with tying into a municipal sanitary sewer. The City of
Marion's sanitary sewer is in close proximity to this system, and a review of tying into Marion's
system should be made.
If there are questions or additional information is needed regarding system operation,
maintenance, or an NPDES permit question, please contact a Regional Office Surface Water staff
person at [phone]. Thank you for the opportunity to conduct this Compliance Evaluation
Inspection.

The current system shows signs of improved aeration and mixing, in addition on-site records indicated Flow
meter had been calibrated within the past 6 months, NPDES permit NC0086428 requires"annual'flow
meter calibration showing meter capable of accurate measurements between +/- 10% of actual
measurements. Effluent samples are still being collected 'just after' de-chlorination, making representative
sampling a problem.Also, there is no clear path to the receiving stream for collection of representative
sampling, and visual observations to be made regarding stream impacts. The location of the discharge pipe
was determined to be in a stormwater culvert down from the WWTP, in the lower portion of the parking lot of
Marion Travel Plaza.
It is suggested that the facility review their'options' to continuing this discharge, especially in light of the
shape and condition of the WWTP, with tying into a municipal sanitary sewer. The City of Marion's sanitary
sewer is in close proximity to this system, and a review of tying into Marion's system should be made.
If there are questions or additional information is needed regarding system operation, maintenance, or an
NPDES permit question, please contact a Regional Office Surface Water staff person at [phone].
Thank you for the opportunity to conduct this Compliance Evaluation Inspection.
