Hey Dave,
Just wanted to let you know about a small alteration we are doing at Sampson Rd, SR 1526 A (Watauga County) at
around Station 49+50 (rt). A short stormwater side channel has formed over the past year/several months and is
eroding the shoulder of the road (which we will soon be widening). I contacted Steve Kichefski and Eric Alsmeyer with
USACE to discuss a plan we had devised to remedy the issue. They were fine with our plans, which includes blocking off
the stormwater side channel and stabilizing the road shoulder. This should help prevent future maintenance needs to
the road, and I'm hopeful it will also help the stream by reducing erosion and consolidating the flow into one channel
during rain events. I've attached a PDF containing several photos and comments detailing what we are planning to do
(it's the same information I provided Eric and Steve), as well as the EC plan page for that location. You can see their
comments in the email history below.
Just a heads up - in addition to this alteration, we are also working with USACE on a needed pipe extension (adding 15 ft
to a pipe) at the same project, at around station 35+00 (rt). We are needing to do this so we can better stabilize the new
road shoulder. However, this extension should allow us to eliminate the previously permitted gabions at the pipe outlet,
and place the outlet on bedrock. The latter will eliminate the need for a 10 ft instream rip rap pad that we were
permitted. So, hopefully we will only have a new net instream impact of 5ft (adding 15 ft of pipe but eliminating 10 ft of
instream rip rap). I'm currently getting the additional coldwater mitigation information required for that, as well as the
other necessary paperwork for USCAE. I'll follow up with you concerning that issue in the near future.
Finally, wanted to mention we obtained the necessary Trout Buffer Variance for both of these spots.
Thanks,
Kevin

Kevin: Based on the information you submitted, the new stormwater side channel is not jurisdictional under Section
404, the proposed additional shoulder protection fill would not require 404 authorization, and your nationwide permit
verification will not need to be modified.,
Please reply or call if you have any questions or if I may serve you in any other way.

Hey Eric,
I'm going to try and give you a call soon regarding the email below and attachments. I originally sent it to Steve
Kichefski, and then spoke to him on the phone about it. Since you issued the permit, I believe Steve was going to check
with you for a recommendation. I thought I'd follow up to see is he had spoken to you yet, and if not, to see if I could
explain what we are hoping to do. The "SR1526A Sampson Rd Road Shoulder issue PDF" attached above contains
several slides that may be helpful. I know Steve has been real busy, so just thought I'd contact you directly.
I'll try and give you a call this afternoon.
Thanks,
Kevin

Subject: Request regarding SR 1526A, Sampson Rd, Watauga County
Hey Steve,
We have a side channel that has formed in a stream along SR 1526A (Sampson Rd, Watauga County) and is beginning to
undermine the road shoulder. We hope to fix the issue, and protect the road shoulder. Furthermore, we believe the
work will benefit the stream by eliminating the side channel. The area in question is between 49+30 —49+90 (rt.) on the
attached EC plan sheet. We don't believe we need to modify the permit (attached above), but would like to double
check with you before doing anything.
I've attached a PDF showing several photographs and written details about our plans to remedy the issue. I'll follow up
with a phone call tomorrow to get your thoughts and provide additional information.
Thanks,
Kevin

Primary channel
ob
Side channel formed during recent rain events. It is
undermining the road shoulder and could potentially get
worse in the future. Currently holds little to no flow other
than during rain events.
Mid -channel island
Would like to block off the side channel, putting all the flow
' .into the primary channel, and reslope the road shoulder to
'1 2:1. Will leave the vegetated mid -channel island next to
the primary channel intact.
