Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on September 29, 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) 198200030 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, 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 that you described in your application. If you change your project beyond the scope of 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: N~'i'thCarolina .Nil/lira/III 401 Wetlands Certification Unit 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, North Carolina 27699.1650 2321 Crabtree Boulevard, Suite 250, Raleigh, North Carolina 27604 Phone: 919.733.1786/ FAX 919.733-6893/lntemet: http'//h2o enr.statencus/ncwetlands An Equal Opportunity/Affirmative AC<jon Employer - 50% Recycled/10% Post Consumer Paper Roger Lowery Page 2 of5 , October 19, 2005 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 Plan Location or Reference (Units) Shoreline 164 (linear feet) 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. Roger Lowery Page 3 of5 October 19, 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.

Roger Lowery Page 4 0[5 October 19,2005 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. 10. Disturbed banks and a 25-foot vegetated zone, must be restored along the shoreline to natural riparian conditions with native trees and shrubs (e.g., silky dogwood, rhododendron, dog hobble, red maple, silky willow, 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 seeded with a native annual and perennial seed mix with a temporary nursery crop of wheat, millet or other grain. 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. Deed Restrictions Deed Restrictions or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all retained jurisdictional wetlands, waters and protective buffers 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. Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in criminal and/or civil penalties. The authorization to proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application and as authorized by this Certification, shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit. Roger Lowery Page 5 of5 October 19, 2005 If you do not accept any of the conditions of this Certification (associated with the approved wetland or stream impacts), 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. If you have any questions, please telephone Cyndi Karoly in the Central Office in Raleigh at 919-733-9721 or Mr. Kevin Barnett in the DWQ Asheville Regional Office at either Kevin.Barnett@ncmail.net or at 828-296-4657.

The NCWRC has reviewed information provided by the applicant, and field biologists on our staff are familiar with habitat values of the project area. These comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (33 U.S.C. 466 et. scq.) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.c. 661-667d). The applicant has installed 164 linear feet of riprap to stabilize shoreline on Lake James. Photographs and maps provided within the application made it possible to provide these comments without doing a site visit. Sandy beach areas along the shoreline of Lake James provided habitat for walleye. Since this is an after-the-fact request, we will not comment on the work already completed. Normally, the following recommendations would be recommended by this agency: 1. The stabilization project should be done with minimum class I (class II preferred) riprap or rock. This size rock improves aquatic habitat structure. We do not support the use of river rock as in channel mining river rock causes impacts to aquatic environments and destabilizes riparian zones by causing unnatural geomorphic regime modifications. Large quarry stone provides enhanced aquatic spaces habitat and remains in place bettcr than river rock. Fabric matting may be used beneath the stone to reduce erosion and turbidity. Mailing Address: Division ofInland Fisheries · 1721 Mail Service Center . Raleigh, NC 27699-1721 Telephone: (919) 733-3633 . Fax: (919) 715-7643 . ,. ,r Lowcry Stabilization, Lakc Jamcs 2 Octobcr 4, 2005 2. Rock or stone should be placed just above the high water mark and towards the lake five (5) to six (6) feet. Sandy beach areas should not be impacted by the proposed project. 3. The walleye moratorium of February 15 through April 15 should be followed if impacts will occur to waters or sandy beach areas. 4. Stabilization work should occur from the water instead of the shore to minimize buffer impacts. Existing wooded buffers should be preserved whenever possible. Any Large Woody Debris (LWD) should be maintained to the maximum extent practicable to provide aquatic habitat. If relocated, the L WD must be securely anchored so that it will remain where installed. Stringent erosion control measures should be installed where soil is disturbed and maintained until project completion. Temporary or permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within ten (10) days of ground disturbing activities to provide long-term erosion control. 5. Disturbed banks may be revegetated with silky dogwood (COrJlllS amonllm), silky willow (Salix sericea), tag alder (Alnus serndata), black willow (Salix nigra), and sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) or other native plants to provide long term bank stability and stream shading. Note that silky dogwood, silky willow and black willow can be planted as live stakes collected during the dormant growing season. Cuttings should be randomly planted and done on 4 foot centers from the waters edge to the top of the bank. Trees should be planted on 10-12 foot centers. Banks in these areas should also be seeded with an approved wetland seed mix or temporary crop of wheat or rye. 6. Wide undisturbed shoreline buffers and natural vegetation should be maintained to the extent practicable. 7. Any dock provided should meet Duke Power Company Shoreline Management Plan requirements and specifications, including fish-friendly habitat apparatus. 8. The applicant should contact the NC Division of Water Quality and local planning authorities to determine if a 401 Certification or local permits are needed for the project and for any buffer infringements or impacts. Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project. If you have any questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 336/769-9453.
