Subject: Watauga County EWP 401 Authorizations
From: Daryl Lamb <[e-mail]>
Date: Wed, 25 May 2005 15:13:53 -0400
To: Ian McMillan <[e-mail]>, Laurie J Dennison <Lauri [e-mail]>
Ian and Laurie,
The following 401 authorizations have been issued by WSRO effective 05/20/2005. All of these
authorizations are for use of WQC# 3367 in conjunction with the USACE's NW 37. These are all
Emergency Watershed Protection (EWP) projects in Watauga County being conducted by the Watauga
Soil & Water Conservation District (MRCS).
DWQ#'s 05-0759, 05-0760, 05-0761, 05-0762, 05-0763, 05-0764, 05-0765, 05-0766, 05-0767, 05-0768,
05-0769, 05-0770, 05-0771, 05-0772, 05-0773, 05-0774, 05-0775, 05-0776, 05-0777, 05-0778, 05-0779,
05-0780, 05-0781, 05-0782, 05-0783, 05-0784.
I have attached a copy of DWQ# 05-0759 as an example since all of the above authorizations are
identical except for the stream, location, and length of impact. Hard copies are being sent for the
Wetlands/401 Central Office files.
Best regards,

Comments: As per our discussion regarding revision of the triage and delegation processes,
please review the attached file. Note that you are the first reviewer, so this file will need to be
reviewed for administrative as well as technical details. If you elect to place this project on hold,
please ask the applicant to provide your requested information to both the Central Office in
Raleigh as well as the Asheville Regional Office. As we discussed, this is an experimental, interim
procedure as we slowly transition to electronic applications. Please apprise me of any
complications you encounter, whether related to workload, processing times, or lack of a "second
reviewer" as the triage process in Central had previously provided. Also, if you think of ways to
improve this process, especially so that we can plan for the electronic applications, let me know.
Thanks!

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.
All precautions will be taken to reduce and avoid impacts such as care ingress and egress as
well as erosion control methods.
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.
Page 9 of 12
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://li2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/stmigide.11tm1.
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/wg2/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): N/A
Amount of buffer mitigation requested (square feet): N/A
Amount of Riparian wetland mitigation requested (acres): N/A

RE: Emergency Watershed Protection Stream-Clearing Projects
Dear
I know that County experienced stream damage as a result of the fall
hurricanes. Our department would like to work closely with your county to insure that
stream restoration projects receiving state and federal funds under the Emergency
Watershed Protection (EWP) program move as smoothly as possible through the
environmental review and permitting process. I have enclosed for your information a
brief summary of the types of permits and approvals that may be required for these
projects. For projects that involve work directly affecting the streambed, the United
States Army Corps of Engineers will be the primary environmental permitting agency.
For those projects, our staff in the Division of Water Quality and the Division of Land
Resources play a supporting role and issue related state approvals.
I have asked our staff to meet with all of the western counties, either individually or in
small groups, to talk about each county's proposed stream restoration projects and answer
your questions about permit requirements. Our staff will ask the Corps of Engineers and
Soil and Water Conservation staff to join in those meetings in an effort to put together a
plan of action for reviewing and approving stream restoration projects as quickly as
possible. You should receive a telephone call from DENR staff soon to talk about a date
and time that would be convenient to meet and talk about your projects.
I have also directed our staff to waive fees for state water quality certifications (under
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act) and for approval of erosion and sedimentation
February 25, 2005
Page 2 of 2
control plans for stream-clearing projects funded under EWP. Fees will be waived for all
EWP permit s requested by September 1, 2005.
I hope these efforts will ease the burden on county governments already challenged by
the demands of reconstruction and recovery. If we can help you in any other way, please
do not hesitate to call. I have asked Assistant Secretary Robin Smith to be a primary
contact on these projects for DENR; you can reach Ms. Smith at [phone]. The
enclosed information sheet also provides contact information for DENR staff in both the
Asheville and Winston-Salem Regional Offices and for the Corps of Engineers office in
Asheville.
Sincerely,
William G. Ross, Jr.

Dear Mr. Chapin:
WCSWCD, on behalf of the referenced private landowner sites is requesting concurrence
from the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (Commission) for twenty-six (26)
404 Permits from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. We reviewed the applications and are
familiar with the project areas. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of
the Clean Water Act of 1977 (33 U.S.C. 466 et seq.) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination
Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d).
The bulk of the projects are indicated as necessary to stabilize hurricane damaged channels
using a combination of techniques including riprap, debris removal and rock vanes. Some of
the applications are not very specific as to the type of stabilization and work proposed. Most
of the projects are very lengthy and deserve additional oversight. Fishery biologists are
familiar with aquatic habitat conditions in Watauga County streams and are concerned with
the large amount of stabilization activities proposed on some streams where conditions may
or may not have significant hurricane or flood damage. Fishery biologists are very concerned
about the indicated length and cumulative impacts of several of these projects.
Impacts to Watauga County streams are indicated (in the same order as above reading the left
column first) to be as follows:

Based on discussions with Mr. Derek Goddard (May 5, 2005), work on these projects must be
completed before September, 2005. All stream work will occur on streams supporting brown, brook
and/or rainbow trout. These streams support healthy populations of wild trout. Some of these
projects are located on tributaries of the Watauga River, which supports the green floater, Lasmigona
subviridis (NCE, FSC). Exigencies and emergency work require prompt action. However, even on
these, natural stream design techniques and materials should be used. All stream work should use
best management practices during construction such as minimization of excavation in flowing water.
Also, berm construction and excavation to below pre-storm bed channel contours should be avoided.
The Commission is concerned about impacts to habitats for trout and other aquatic resources and
supports efforts to reduce stream bank erosion. We are concerned about short-term effects of
stabilization projects and the need for protective measures that promote their long-term effectiveness.
Much of the stream damage that occurred in the mountain region from the recent flood events was in
areas where stream-side vegetation was absent or diminished. It appears that some of the affected
areas did not have sufficient stream-side naturally forested buffers. Accordingly, Commission
biologists strongly encourage the restoration of vegetated zones along EWP repair sites as described
in the following recommended conditions and the use of permanent protective requirements on these
areas with either conservation easements or deed amendments where possible. We feel that these
long-term stabilization efforts and riparian protection measures are particularly important since the
projects are publicly funded.
The Commission will not object to the issuance of 404 Permits for these projects provided the
following non-prioritized conditions, which we feel will reduce effects on resources and provide
better stabilization and habitat benefits, are attached to the permit and implemented:
1. Stringent erosion control measures should be installed where soil is disturbed and maintained
until project completion. Sediment and erosion control measures shall adhere to the design
standards for sensitive watersheds (15A NCAC 413 .0124) in and above known state and
federal listed species habitats.
Watauga County EWP - Bulk Projects Page 3 May 10, 2005
2. Instream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are prohibited during
the trout spawning seasons of October 15 through April 15 to protect the egg and fry stages of
trout.
3. 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 areas 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.
Because of difficulty in establishing ground cover during colder months, reseeding should be
conducted as necessary with a native annual and perennial seed mix with a temporary nursery
crop of wheat, millet or other grain.
4. 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 realigned stream channel reaches to improve channel
stability and aquatic habitat. Any 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.
5. Channels should be restored to more stable and natural conditions. Under no circumstances
should river rock, sand or other materials be dredged from the stream channels 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 armoring. 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 areas should not be modified
by widening the stream channel or changing its depth.
6. Stabilization measures should one 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 constructed because they block the floodplain, constrict and accelerate flood flows,
and often erode and impede drainage during large flood events.
7. Repairs to eroded banks should be conducted in a dry work area where possible. Sandbags or
other clean diversion structures should be used where possible to minimize excavation in
flowing water. Channel realignments and rock debris removals should be constructed by
excavating from downstream to upstream before reconnecting to stream flow at the upper end
of the site. Edging the area prior to backfilling can be used to separate waters from the work
area.
8. 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 channels must be clean, new or low hour equipment.
Petroleum containment equipment should be readily available on the work site to contain any
spills.
9. Disturbed stream banks and a twenty-foot (25) vegetated zone, or the widest width practical,
should be restored where possible along the repair sites to natural riparian conditions with
Watauga County EWP - Bulk Projects Page 4 May 10, 2005
native trees and shrubs (e.g., silky dogwood, rhododendron, dog hobble, red maple, silky
willow, tag alder, black willow, sycamore) in order 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.
10. Hard bank stabilization practices should be avoided whenever possible. Natural stream
design restoration or bioen ing eering techniques must be maximized. In order to restore
aquatic functions that were diminished or lost during recent flood events, project design and
construction activities should not exclude the installation of bioengineering devices like j-
hooks, rock vanes and/or rock weirs using state-of-the-art natural channel design techniques
where such structures will restore stability as well as restore fish holding habitats and channel
structure.
11. Under no circumstances should streams be channelized or straightened. Alternative activities
or unauthorized impacts to waters or wetlands must not occur.
12. Due to the large linear footage of most of these projects, efforts should be provided to
minimize total disturbance and impacts. In addition, projects should be phased so that each
portion of a project is completed and adequately stabilized prior to beginning another stream
section. The area of work should be limited to a pre-specified linear footage at the discretion
of regulatory agencies and as required pursuant to the NC Division of Land Resources (DLR)
buffer requirements where applicable. Mr. Matt Gantt, Regional Engineer with DLR may be
contacted at 336-771-4600 to discuss these buffer requirements.
13. histream Avork in or above areas supporting listed aquatic species must be coordinated Nvith
the US Fish and Wildlife Service. These areas have been previously indicated during EWP
pre-application processes.
As state and federal funds are being expended for these activities. Nye recommend that fifty (50)
foot naturally vegetated buffers or maximum available forested buffers be provided and
permanently protected through deed restrictions. conservation easements or other enforceable
methods. A minimum of the twenty-five (25) foot trout buffer Nvould be an improvement over
grassed vegetation as firmly established, large woody root mass helps maintain long-term stream
stability.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and continent on this proiect. Pending availability of
field staff. the Commission may inspect the work site during or after construction. If there are
any questions regarding these continents. please contact me at 336-769-9453.

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Goddard:
The Watauga Soil and Water Conservation District has our approval to conduct stream channel and bank
stabilization and restoration activities, in accordance with the attached conditions, along a total of 1,500 linear
feet of Laurel Creek located along Laurel Creek Road from U. S. Highway 321 south to the high-water bridge,
near Rominger, in Watauga County, as described in your application received by the Division of Water
Quality on May 3, 2005. After reviewing your application, we have determined that this activity is covered
by General Water Quality Certification Number 3367, which can be viewed on our web site at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 37
when it is issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. In addition, you should secure any other applicable
federal, state or local permits before you proceed with your project, including (but not limited to) those
required by Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge, and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also,
this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General
Certification.
This approval is valid only for the purpose and design that you have described in your application. If you
change your project, you must notify us in writing, and you may be required to send us a new application for a
new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of the 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, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A
NCAC 2H .0506 (h). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached
certification, as well as the additional conditions listed below:
1. The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all other specific and general conditions of this
Certification are met. No other impacts, including incidental impacts, are approved:

2. Appropriate sediment and erosion control measures which equal or exceed those outlined in the most
recent version of the North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual or the
North Carolina Surface Mining Manual (available from the Division of Land Resources at NCDENR
regional offices or the central office), whichever is more appropriate, shall be designed, installed and
maintained properly to assure compliance with the appropriate turbidity water quality standard (50
NTUs in streams and rivers not designated as trout waters by DWQ; 25 NTUs in all saltwater classes
and all lakes and reservoirs; 10 NTUs in DWQ Classified trout waters). Such measures must equal or
exceed the requirements specified in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and
Erosion Control Manual. These measures must be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites,
and waste pile (spoil) sites, including contractor owned and leased borrow pits, which are associated
with the project.
3. 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 measures in wetlands or 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.
4. 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.
5. 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,
unless authorized under Division of Land Resources Erosion and Sediment Control approval. 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.
6. 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.
i?
7. The channel must 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. Streambed materials are unstable in flowing-water situations and are unsuitable for
bank stabilization. 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.
8. 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
slu-ub 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 streambed materials are available. Berms are not permitted because they block the
floodplain, constrict and accelerate flood flows, and often fail or impede drainage during large flood
events.
9. Repairs to eroded banks should be conducted in a dry work area where possible. Sandbags or other
clean diversion structures should be used where possible 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.
10. If mechanized equipment is utilized, it shall be operated from the bank whenever possible. All
mechanized equipment operated near surface waters shall be inspected and maintained regularly to
prevent contamination of stream waters from fuels, lubricants, hydraulic fluids or other toxic materials.
Any mechanized equipment used in the stream channel shall be clean and in proper working order.
11. As long-term stream stability is a concern with this type of work, it is strongly recommended that woody
vegetation be established along stream banks where possible. Any riparian vegetation planting should
be performed in accordance with the Guidelines for Riparian Buffer Restoration
(http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/pdfibuffers.pd0.
12. The permittee shall provide on-site supervision of stability work including, but not limited to bank re-
sloping, in-stream structure placement, and riparian zone re-establishment by an appropriately trained
individual.
13. The Permittee shall monitor the stabilization work done under this Certification on an annual basis for
three (3) years following the completion of the restoration efforts. This field evaluation should note the
condition and stability of the measures installed and the success of any riparian zone plantings. A
written report shall be provided to DWQ's Asheville Regional Office by June 1" of each year. The
report must describe inspection results, include digital photographs, list the date of inspection, and
describe any needed repairs or corrections.
14. The permittee must provide a copy of this Water Quality Certification and attached authorization letter
to each property owner where the approved work will be performed.
15. The turbidity standard of 10 NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units) shall not be exceeded in streams
designated as trout waters, as described in 15 A NCAC 2B .0211(k). For streams not designated as trout
