Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Con?F?STORMWqTFRBUXH
Dear Mr. Leek:
, You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed
, below, to place fill within or otherwise impact 300 feet of streams for the purpose of
streambank stabilization and woody debris removal / trash removal at the subject
properties, as described within your application received by the N.C. Division of Water
Quality (DWQ) on July 14, 2005: After reviewing your application, we have decided that
the impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3367 (3367).
! The Certification(s) allows you to use Nationwide Permit(s) 37 when issued by the US
Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). In addition, you shoutd obtain or otherwise comply
i with any other required federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your
I project including (but not limited to) Erosion and Sediment Control, Non-discharge, and
stormwater 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 that you described in your application. (Nothing in this
approval should be interpreted as giving permission to remove bedload material
from the existing channel, nor allowing for the construction of berms which
would not allow the stream access to it's floodplain.) As "stable" and "pre-storm"
are not interchangeable terms, all work must be to ensure stability, regardless of
channel location. Additionally, channels cannot be returned to it's pre-storm location
unless there is documented instability is submitted and approved as part of the
application package. If you change your project beyond the approval here, 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:
Amount
Approved (Units) Plan Location or Reference
Stream 300 feet Shootin Creek
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 Contro! 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.
u
Clay County:

July 25, 2005
4. No Sediment & Erosion Control Measures w/n 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 wetiands 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. Construction in this creek and disturbance within a 25-foot trout buffer, where
applicable, should be avoided during the October 15 to April 15 trout spawning
period to avoid adverse effects of sediment on eggs and larvae, where applicable.
However, Wildlife Resources Commission will not object to construction of Natural
Resources Conservation Service "urgent and compelling" sites during the spawning
, period provided these projects are, to the extent appropriate and practical,
constructed by: (1) using flow diversion structures such as sand bags, (2) placing
! large-sized rock toes and filter cloth backing for stabilization sites before backfilling,
and (3) excavating new channel alignments in dry areas. Construction at the other
non"urgent and compelling" sites should not occur during the spawning period to
minimize the potential adverse effects of multiple construction activities on trout
resources in this creek.
7. 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. 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.
Clay County: _

8. 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.
9. The channel should 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. Stream bed materials are unstable
in flowing-water situations and are unsuitable for bank stabilization. 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 area should not be modified by widening the stream channel or changing
its depth.
10. Stabilization measures should only_ be applied on or near existing erosion sites,
leaving other stable stream bank areas m 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 permitted
because they block the floodplain, constrict and accelerate flood flows, and often fail
and sometimes impede drainage during large flood events.
11. 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.
12. 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
channel must be clean, new or low hour equipment.
13. Disturbed stream banks and a 25-foot vegetated zone, or the widest width that is
practical under the site conditions, should be restored along the construction sites to
natural riparian conditions with native trees and shrubs (e.g., silky dogwood,
rhododendron, dog hobble, red maple, silky wiltow, tag alder, black willow,
sycamore) 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
r
Clay County:
Page 5 of 6
July 25, 2005
seeded with a native annual and perennial seed mix with a temporary nursery crop
of wheat, millet or other grain.
14. If pasture along the stream is to be used for grazing, a fence must be constructed
outside of the riparian zone and the stream to prevent livestock from entering these
areas.
15. Diffuse Flow
All constructed stormwater conveyance outlets shall be directed and maintained
as diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected riparian zones
such that it will not re-concentrate before discharging into a stream. 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.
16. Riparian Zone Replanting
Replanting of vegetation within disturbed areas located within 30 feet of the
streambank associated with any land disturbing activity, repair, replacement
and/or maintenance must be done in a manner consistant with the Guidelines
for Riparian Buffer Restoration immediately following construction. (Please
see attached.)
17. eed Notifications
Deed notifications or similar rnechanisms shall be placed on all retained
jurisdictional wetlands, waters and protective woody riparian zones in order to
assure compliance for future wetland, water and buffer impact. 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. A sample deed notification can be downloaded from the
401/Wetlands Unit web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. The text of
the sample deed notification may be modified as appropriate to suit to this
project.
' 18. Turbidity Standard
The turbidity standard of 10 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.
19. 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.

site layouts, and explain why these design options were not feasible. Also discuss how impacts
were minimized once the desised site plan was developed. If applicable, discuss construction
techniques to be followed during construction to reduce impacts.
Stream stabilization will onlv be conducted in areas exhibiting active erosion. This work is
bein-a conducted under the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCSZ,grant for
EmerQencv Watershed Protection (EWP) and will be constructed according to the rules set forth
in the grant. Minor channel work is anticipated to restore the site to pre-flood conditions Rock
structures and revetments (where feasible) will be constructed to divert shear stresses awaY from
the adiacent streambanks to allow for newlv planted vegetation to become properlv established
Construction will be conducted during low 11ow events. Anv rises or increases in flows will
require that equipment exit the channel. Streambanks disturbedroia stabilization activities will
be seeded and covered immediatelv.

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.
LJSACE - 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 aze 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 similaz
functions and values, prefera.ble in the same watershed. .
If mitigation is required for this pmject, 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 sha11 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 Cazolina, available at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/stn-ngide.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 sepazate sheet if more space is needed.
Not applicable
' 2. Mitigation may also be made by payment into the North Cazolina 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 httQ://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/wrp/index.htm. If use of

1.0 INTRODUCTION
` This emergency watershed protection and xehabilitation plan addresses proposed channel
improvements to Shooting Creek in Clay County, North Carolina. The plan is being
completed in conjunction with an Emergency Watershed Pxotection (EWP) grant provided
by the Natural Resources Conservation Service for the Shooting Creek watershed. The
project area covers approxitnately 480 linear feet of Shooting Creek on the Jack Shook
property. Specifically, the project area is situated south of US 64 approxitnately eight miles
east of Hayesville, NC (see attached vicinity map). Landuse throughout the study area is
predominately rural.
Mulkey Engineers and Consultants (Mulkey) was retained by Clay County to design and
oversee the irnplementation of emergency stabilization techniques using natural channel
design methodologies. Implementation is planned for July and August 2005.
Shooting Cxeek is located within the Hiwassee
River Basin in westem North Carolina. It is part of USGS Basin 0600002 and Subbasin 04-
OS-01. The Shooting Creek watershed
originates along the southeastern face of
Chunky Gal Mountain near the Clay/Macon
County Line and flows in a westexly direction
a p pxo.Yimatel y six miles before em p tyin g into ?1 - ? ?
Chatuge Lake. According to the NC Division
of Water Quality (NCDWQ> 2002)> watex ?`'?? ?- ??•?.
quality in this subbasin is Good. The
headwaters of Shooting Creek are xvithin the =? --?-?- _- -
Nantahala National Forest and are somewhat undisturbed, due to slope constraints.
However, once the slopes begin to decrease, disturbance begins to become evident. A4ost of
the disturbances are the result of development and agricultuxal practices, which have
negatively affected the stream system. The minimal riparian zones throughout these areas
have also added to an increase in sedimentation. According to NCDWQ, sedimentarion in
' Shooring Creek was noted in the 1997 basin plan. Although the stream received a Good
classificarion in 1999, DWQ biologists noted eYCessive sedimentation in the pools and
sevexe bank erosion. The Shooting Cxeek arm of the lake is almost completely full of
sediment (NCDWQ, 2002). Recent flooding attributed to the heavy rain events encountered
during the fall of 2004 have only exacerbated the ovetall problems.
2.0 OBJECTIVE
The objective of this project is to reduce erosion and sedimentarion originating through this
reach and improve the overall habitat values. This objective Nvill be met by establishment of
xock structures (xefeYred to as vanes) within noted pxoblem areas to divert the shear stresses
away from the erocling streambanks. This project is being funded and implemented as
Emergency Watershed Protection and Rehabilitauon (EWP) through a grant ftom the
Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). Natural channel design methodologies
will be unplemented to maxunum extent pxacticable to ensure the channel dimension,
should avexage approximately 171.9 square feet along the riffle sections of this
channel. The bankfull width and mean depth should average approximately 58.9 feet
and 2.9 feet, respectively. The bankfull discharge is estimated at approximately
1,021.5 cubic feet per second.
2. The contractor will begin by removing existing center bar along the upstream
portion of the site and redefine the thalweg near the center of the channel. The
material will be repositioned along either side of the channel, staying consistent
within the avexage proposed channel cross sectional area.
3. Boulders will be placed within a secondary channel to prohibit low flows from
entering the area along the outside of the meanderbend. During higher flows, this
axea tends to function as a large center bar with channel stresses being pushed along
the outside of the channel. Geotextile fabric and excavated material will be placed
along the upstream edge of these boulders to restrict fines and other material from
passing through any gaps between the rocks. The downstream confluence of this
channel with Shooting Creek will remain open primarily for aquatic habitat.
4. A rock j-hook vane will be constructed along the right streambank (facing
downstream) to promote pool development and maintenance thxoughout this
section of channel. The structure will also help to reduce the overall shear currendy
etoding the bank through this section. Upon completion of the structure, the
upstream portion of the vane will be lined with geotextile fabric and backfilled with
native material. Any distutbed streambanks will be graded, seeded and covered with
erosion control matting.
5. Debris throughout the meanderbend will be repositioned to allow for natuxal
channel maintenance. The repositioning of this material will be implemented in a
manner that is consistent with typical habitat for aquatic wildlife, without
compromising ovetall sediment transport.
6. The xemaining center bars downstream of the meanderbend will be removed and the
material will be placed along the adjacent streambanks. The dimension of the
channel will remain consistent with Regional Curve data.
7. Once construction activities have been completed, the contractor will seed all
distutbed areas. Bare-xooted and live-staked vegetation will be installed according to
the buffer guidelines presented with the grant.
5.0 DESIGN IMPLEMENTATION
Implementation will follow the design sequence
listed on the plan sheet. The installation of
structures will proceed fxom upstream to
downstream. As a result, shifts in the flows can
be addressed with the placement of structutes
downstteam. The actual locations of the
structures may be adjusted, depending on site
conditions. Implementation must take place
prior to September 1, 2005 and is anticipated to
take less than five total days.

RE: Emergency Watershed Protection Stream-Clearing Projects
Dear
?
I irnow that County experienced strpam 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 sumnlary 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 Septernber 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.
