C. Highway 194, near Valle Crucis, 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://h20.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands.This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 37 when it is issued by the U.S. Anny Corps of Engineers. In addition, you should secure any other applicable federal, state or local pemlits 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: Amount Approved Plan Location or Reference Streams 7,000 linear feet Clarks Creek along Justus Road from #410 to the Clarks Creek Bridge on N.

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. 7, The channel must be restored to a more stable condition. However, under no circumstances should river f Mr. Derek Goddard Page 3, DWQ# 05-0774 May 20, 2005 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 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 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://h20.em.state. nc. us/wm/pd [lbu [[ers. pdt). 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 Pernlittee 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 151 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 waters, the turbidity standard of 50 NTU (Nephelometric Turbidity Units) shall not be exceeded, as 1 Mr. Derek Goddard Page 4, DWQ# 05-0774 May 20, 2005 described in 15 A NCAC 2B .0211(k). Appropriate sediment and erosion control practices shall be used to ensure compliance with this standard. 16, Instream work and land disturbance within the 25-foot wide buffer zone are prohibited during the trout spawning season from October 15th through April 15th to protect the egg and fry stages of trout. 17. Upon finishing the project, the Applicant shall fill out and return the enclosed "Certificate of Completion" to notify NCDWQ when all work included in the S401 Certification has been completed. This certificate should be returned to the 401lWetlands Unit of the NC Division of Water Quality at the address listed on the form. Along with the Certificate of Completion, please send photographs showing all restored stream reaches. If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing. This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act.

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 envirorunent 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://h20.enr.state.nc. us/ncwetlands/strnl gide.html. 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 (919) 733-5208 to determine availability and to request written approval of mitigation prior to submittal of a PCN.

February 25, 2005 Page 1 of2 February 25, 2005 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 proj ects receiving state and federal funds under the Emergency Watershed Protection (EWP) program move as smoothly as possible through the envirorunental 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 envirorunental permitting agency, For those projects, our staff in the Division of Water Quality and the Division of Land Resources playa 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 of2 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 goverrunents 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 (919) 715-4141. 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.
