Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
'-"-:"'\- h.i)I.i1~r~

Dear Mr. Cursons:

You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed
below, to place fill within or otherwise impact 1,470 square feet of shoreline for the
purpose of stabilization at the subject property, as described within your application
received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on June 8, 2005. After reviewing
your application, we have decided that the impacts are covered by General Water
Quality Certification Number(s) 3373 (GC3373). The Certification(s) allows you to use
Regional Permit(s) 198200079 when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers
(USACE). In addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required
federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not
limited to) Erosion and Sediment Control, Non-discharge, Stormwater and Buffer
: regulations. Also, this approval to proceed with your proposed impacts or to
conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application shall expire upon
expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.

This approval is for the purpose of shoreline stabilization. Nothing in this
authorization allows for the use of "river rock." If you change your project beyond
what is approved in this authorization, you must notify us and you may be required to
send us 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 fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre of wetland
, or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in
, 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in
the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.

The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:

1. Impacts Approved

The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all of the other specific
and general conditions of this Certification (or Isolated Wetland Permit) are met.
No other impacts are approved including incidental impacts:

Shoreline

Plan Location or Reference

A

2. Erosion & Sediment Control Practices

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.

3. No Waste, Spoil, Solids, or Fill of Any Kind

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.

Lee Cursons
Page 3 of6
July 1, 2005

4. No Sediment & Erosion Control Measures wIn Wetlands or Waters

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
devices in wetlands and 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.

5. Certificate of Completion

Upon completion of all work approved within the 401 Water Quality Certification
or applicable Buffer Rules, and any subsequent modifications, the applicant is
required to return the attached certificate of completion to the 401/Wetlands Unit,
North Carolina Division of Water Quality, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC,
27699-1650.

6. Riprap Installation

All banks shall be laid back at a 2: 1 slope and rip rap applied at the water I land
interface (at full pool). Riprap shall be placed as a linear protective measure
upon the regarded slopes. Stone used in stabilization shall be a random size,
varying from Class B riprap up to 6 feet in diameter to provide additional wildlife
habitat. All exposed soils above the Riprap stabilized area shall be replanted in
accordance with the attached Guidelines for Riparian Buffer Restoration.
This authorization shall in no way be construed as allowing the installation of a
bulkhead or seawall. In no way does this Certification allow for the use of
"river rock."

7. Equipment

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 waters from fuels, lubricants,
hydraulic fluids or other toxic materials. Equipment used in waters must be
clean, new or low hour equipment.

8. Diffuse Flow

All constructed stormwater conveyance outlets shall be directed and maintained
as diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected stream buffers
such that it will not re-concentrate before being discharged. If this is not possible,
it may be necessary to provide stormwater facilities that are considered to
remove nitrogen. This may require additional approval from this Office.

9. Catawba Buffer Tree Protection

No trees shall be removed from Zone 1 of the Catawba Buffer unless they are
directly within the construction access corridor. If trees are removed, forested
vegetation shall be re-established within the construction access or other
temporary impact area occurring in the protected buffer zone within the next
growing season following construction of the project;

Additionally, should a dense woody buffer not exist along the shoreline, one must
be planted at the completion of the construction activity which complies with the
Catawba Buffer Rules.

10. Turbidity Standard

The turbidity standard of 25 NTUs (Nephelometric Turbidity Units) shall not be
exceeded as described in 15 A NCAC 2B. .0200. Appropriate sediment and
erosion control practices must be used to meet this standard.

11. No Impacts Beyond those in Application

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.

12. No Sediment and Erosion Control Measures in Wetlands

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
devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the
natural grade restored within six months of the date that the Division of Land
Resources or locally delegated program has released the project.

13. Deed Restriction

Deed Restriction or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all retained
jurisdictional wetlands, waters and protective buffers in order to impacts to
wetland, water and buffers located on the property. These mechanisms shall be
put in place prior to impacting any wetlands, waters and/or buffers approved for
impact under this Certification Approval and Authorization Certificate.

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!
