GUC Nutrient Offset and Buffer Mitigation Bank Parcel
Pitt County, NC – Tar-Pamlico River Basin

Introduction
The GUC Nutrient Offset and Buffer Mitigation Bank Parcel (“Parcel” or “Site”) is proposed under the
terms and conditions of the GUC Mitigation Banking Instrument, made and entered into on ,
by Restoration Systems, LLC (RS), acting as Bank Sponsor (Sponsor), and the North Carolina Department
of Environmental Quality (NCDEQ), Division of Water Resources (DWR). The Parcel shall be planned and
designed according to the MBI, 15A NCAC 02B .0258, 15A NCAC 02B .0240, and the Consolidated Buffer
Mitigation Rule 15A NCAC 02B .0295, which became effective on November 1, 2015.

Located in Pitt County North Carolina, the project encompasses ϵϵ͘ϴϬacres of historic pasture and
irrigated biosolids lands for the City of Greensboro Waste Water Facility. The project will restore the
riparian areas along three (3) unnamed tributaries and two (2) surface water conveyances (ditches) with
direct hydrologic connection to Tar River. The primary purpose of the Parcel is to provide riparian buffer
mitigation credit and nutrient offset credits for stormwater requirements within the United States
Geological Survey (USGS) Cataloging Unit 03020103.

NCDWR representatives Katie Merritt and Chris Pullinger conducted an onsite determination for parcel
applicability and suitability on November 11, 2017. Following-up information was provided to Katie
Merritt on January 22, 2019 and a Site Viability for Buffer & Nutrient Offset was provided by the Division
on March 25, 2019.

Prior to the initial credit release, RS will secure a conservation easement to preserve the Parcel and
restrict any development that would impair or interfere with the conservation values of the Property .
Per the referenced Mitigation Banking Instrument (MBI) above, RS will arrange the transfer of the
conservation easement and its interests in perpetuity to a qualified holder under N.C. General Statute
(“G.S.”) 121-34 et seq. and 170(h) of the Internal Revenue Code prior to the end of the fourth year
monitoring period. The holder shall be a land trust or stewardship program accredited by the Land Trust
Accreditation Commission and/or has been approved by DWR. A land trust must be certified under
501(c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code and must have the qualifications outlined in G.S. 105-130.24 and
G.S. 105-151.12.

Project Location/Ownership
The Parcel is located approximately 4.5 miles east of Greenville in Pitt County, NC (Figure 1, Appendix A)
and within the municipal boundaries of Greenville. The City of Greenville owns the parcels associated
with the Site, which have historically been used as agricultural fields by private landowners and as
biosolid irrigation fields for the City’s Waste Water Treatment Plant. The Parcel is within the Tar-Pamlico
River Basin 14-digit USGS Cataloging Unit 03020103070030 of the Middle Atlantic Coastal Plain (North
Carolina Division of Water Quality [NCDWQ] Sub-basin Number 03-03-05) (Figure 1, Appendix A).

Parcel Overview
The Site encompasses three tracks of land, totaling 574.58 acres of historic agricultural land and includes
two (2) surface water conveyances (ditches) with direct hydrologic connection to two (2) unnamed
tributaries which drain immediately to the Tar-Pamlico River. A third unnamed tributary is also present
onsite and connects to an onsite tributary before entering the Tar-Pamlico River (Figure 1, Appendix A).

Parcel surface water conveyances and unnamed tributaries have been cleared of vegetation by historical
agricultural practices and maintained as cleared ditches. Small pockets of disturbed forests do remain on
Site; located at the top of Feature 2, along the margins of Feature 5, and in the southeast corner of
Feature 8. Existing dirt roads, a powerline, and a small dilapidated agricultural building are located on
the property and will either be outside of proposed restoration areas, relocated, or removed completely
from the Parcel.

NCDWR representatives Katie Merritt and Chris Pullinger conducted an onsite determination for parcel
applicability and suitability on November 11, 2017. Following-up information was provided to Katie
Merritt on January 22, 2019 and a Site Viability for Buffer & Nutrient Offset was provided by the Division
on March 25, 2019 (Appendix B). A summary of parcel features and viability is provided below.

Historic Land Use

The City of Greenville’s Wastewater Treatment Plant is located at 240 Aqua Lane (approximately ½ mile
from the Site). The facility was originally built in 1985 as a 10.5 MGD, secondary treatment, activated
sludge plant. The facility was expanded in 1996 to tertiary treatment with a capacity of 17.5 MGD. The
expansion included Enhanced Biological Nutrient Removal, Biological Phosphorus Removal, Tertiary
Filtration, and Ultraviolet (UV) Disinfection prior to releasing effluent into the receiving stream (Tar-
Pamlico River) under NPDES Permit #NC0023931. Residuals are currently managed by aerobic digestion,
belt filter presses and beneficially composted offsite (Class A) by a third party contractor.

Historically, the treatment facility produced ~1,400 dry tons of biosolids annually. Class B biosolids were
irrigated over the WWTP Farm acreage (~330 Permitted – 700 Total) which was purchased in 1989 for
this purpose. From 1989 until 2004 biosolids were applied, coastal Bermuda and livestock were
managed on the property by Greenville Utilities Staff and farmers via annual lease agreements. With
increased requirements for land application based on plant available nitrogen (PAN) and regulatory
trends, land application of class B biosolids became a more challenging disposal option. In 2004, the
Greenville Utility Commission (GUC) elected to adopt a new biosolids management strategy and ceased
its biosolids land application program. The current management strategy utilizes a third-party
contractor, to haul dewatered biosolids to a regional composting facility in Chatham County. Since 2004,
the GUC has maintained the property in its 1989 – 2004 condition to once again irrigate Class B biosolids
waste again if desired. Coastal Bermuda grass has been maintained across the site, select herbicides
have been used to remove noxious and invasive herbaceous species, surface features have been
maintained, and the irrigation system has been kept in a working condition.

Table 2. Timeline of Land Use

Pre 1989 Pasture / Agricultural
1989 – 2004 Irrigated biosolids with livestock (Bermuda Grass)

Since 2004, Greenville Utilities has maintained the property in it's 1989 – 2004 condition
so if the WWTP decided to irrigate biosolids waste again, it could. Coastal Bermuda grass
has been maintained across the site, select herbicides have been used to remove
noxious and invasive herbaceous species, surface features have been maintained, and
the irrigation system has been kept in a working condition.

Project Area – Current Conditions
Physiography
The Parcel encapsulates a heavily modified headwater stream system within the Middle Atlantic Coastal
Plain. Specifically, Ecoregion IV - 63e Mid-Atlantic Flatwoods that occupies the middle portion of the
coastal plain in northern North Carolina and southern Virginia. Upland surfaces are wider, lower in
elevation, with less local relief, and have more poorly drained soils compared to Ecoregion 65m - Rolling
Coastal Plain (Griffith et al. 2002).

The watershed is dominated by agricultural land, fringe forests, and impervious surfaces associated
single family homes, roads – Figure 3 Appendix A. Surrounding area land use is primarily row-crop
agriculture, with some low density residential housing and cattle pasture.

Soils
A detailed soil report for the Parcel was produced using the Natural Resource Conservation Service’s
(NRCS) Web Soil Survey. Based on the custom Pitt County report, the Parcel contains eleven soil series
outlined in Table 3. A detailed review of Parcel soils is provided in Appendix C.

Existing Vegetative Communities
Agricultural fields account for nearly 100 percent of the Parcel’s current land use. These areas are
dominated by Costal Bermuda grass. Forests immediately adjacent to the Parcel and along the margins
of some Parcel features, have been heavily manipulated over the years and are mainly comprised of
primary successional species, i.e. red maple (Acer rubrum), sweetgum (Liquidambar styraciflua), and
tulip poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera). Minimal amounts of invasive species have been documented
within and adjacent to the Parcel and include Chinese privet (Ligustrum sinense) and multiflora rose
(Rosa multiflora).

Undisturbed reference forest conditions adjacent to the site, or within a reasonable distance, could not
be located. Given the Parcels physiography and drained hydric soil condition, RS has determined a mix of
Brownwater Bottomland Hardwoods (High Subtype) and Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Coastal Plain
Subtype) is the most appropriate reference forest (Schafale, M.P. and A.S. Weakley. 2012). Table 3
below outlines the species included in this reference forest ecosystem.

Parcel Design and Implementation Constraints
The presence of conditions or characteristics that have the potential to hinder restoration activities on
the Parcel were evaluated. The evaluation focused primarily on the presence of hazardous materials,
utilities and restrictive easements, rare/threatened/endangered species or critical habitats, the
potential for hydrologic trespass, and existing utility easements. Existing information regarding Parcel
constraints was acquired and reviewed including an Environmental Records Report developed by
Environmental Data Resources Inc. which located no evidence of environmental risk associated with the
Parcel (Appendix D). In addition, any Parcel conditions that have the potential to restrict the restoration
and implementation were documented during the field investigation. A summary of findings is below.

As a result of our review and field surveys, no known Parcel constraints exist that may hinder proposed
restoration activities.

Potential constraints reviewed include the following;

Site parcels are subject to an existing 50-foot PNG Easement (D.B. 3075 Pg. 123-126 and D.B. 3075 Pg.
127-130), deeded January 25th, 2013 and October 30th, 2012 respectively (Appendix D). The existing
easement if for PNG Line 42, DWR Permit No. 2012-1024 v7, and runs roughly east to west across the
Bank Parcels.

Currently, PNG is permitting Line 24 (DWR Permit No. 2018-1640 v1) which when constructed, will
connect to Line 42 and run south, under the Tar-Pamlico River.

Both PNG easements have been surveyed by a licensed land surveyor (John Rudolph – K2 Design Group:
L-4194), and will not be included in the Bank Parcel’s Easement. Furthermore, RS has provided a 5-foot
buffer from the PNG Easement to the Bank Parcel’s easement to prevent future encroachment.

Adjacent to Feature 6A, is a non-functioning GUC powerline, which runs to a dilapidated farm building
also located adjacent to Feature 6A. GUC will remove the powerline and abandon the easement prior to
placement of the conservation easement.

Species with the classification of Endangered (E), Threatened (T), or officially Proposed (P) for such
listing are protected under the Endangered Species Act of 1973 (ESA), as amended (16 U.S.C 1531 et
seq.). Five species are federally listed within within the Parcel boundaries for Pitt County by the United
States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) (USFWS 2008), and are listed below.

Table 5: USFWS FSC Species List
Common Name Scientific Name
West Indian Manatee Trichechus manatus
Red-cockaded Woodpecker Picoides borealis
Atlantic Pigtoe Fusconaia masoni
Dwarf Wedgemussel Alasmidonta heterodon
Tar River Spinymussel Elliptio steinstansana

Based on communications with the USFWS, there are no critical habitats within the project area, and the
proposed mitigation activities will have no effect on species listed above and will result in positive
benefits for these species through improved habitat and water quality (Appendix D).

The term “cultural resources” refers to prehistoric or historic archaeological sites, structures, or artifact
deposits over 50 years old. “Significant” cultural resources are those that are eligible or potentially
eligible for inclusion in the National Register of Historic Places. Evaluations of site significance are made
with reference to the eligibility criteria of the National Register (36 CFR 60).

Field visits were conducted in February of 2019 to ascertain the presence of structures or features that
may be eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. No structures were found. An online search
using the North Carolina State Historic Preservation Office’s (SHPO) Web GIS Service
(http://gis.ncdcr.gov/hpoweb/) and the National Register of Historic Places GIS Search
(https://www.nps.gov/maps/full.html?mapId=7ad17cc9-b808-4ff8-a2f9-a99909164466) identified zero
structures within the Parcel boundaries, or within 1 mile of the Parcel. Furthermore, communication
with the SHPO (Appendix D) concluded, “

The Pitt-Greenville Airport is located approximately five linear miles from the Parcel. There are no
concerns regarding the project and its proximity to the subject airport.

Restoration Plan
The primary goals associated with the restoration of riparian areas focus on improving water quality,
enhancing flood attenuation, and restoring wildlife habitat. Goals will be achieved through the creation

GUC Bank Parcel Development Plan
Tar-Pamlico River Basin 8-Digit HUC: 03020103 pg. 7
of a forested riparian buffer adjacent to stream channels and a forested riparian area along agricultural
ditches. Goals will be accomplished by the following.

1. Removing nonpoint sources of pollution associated with agricultural production, including a)
ceasing the broadcast application of class B biosolids, fertilizer, pesticides, and other agricultural
materials into and adjacent to Parcel surface water conveyances (ditches) and b) providing a
restored buffer to filter runoff from adjacent lands.
2. Reducing sedimentation within onsite and downstream receiving waters by reducing bank
erosion, vegetation maintenance, and agricultural land disturbances.
3. Promoting floodwater attenuation by increasing frictional resistance of floodwaters crossing
Parcel floodplains.
4. Improving aquatic habitat by enhancing stream bed shading and natural detritus input.
5. Providing a terrestrial wildlife corridor and refuge in an area extensively developed for
agricultural production.
6. Restoring and re-establishing natural community structure, habitat diversity, and functional
continuity.
7. Protecting the Parcel’s riparian buffer functions and values in perpetuity.

Primary components of the restoration plan include: 1.) Removal of an existing, abandoned farm
building adjacent to feature 6B & removal of a powerline adjacent to features 6A and 6B, 2.) Removal of
existing compacted earth roads adjacent to features 6A, 6B, and 8, 3.) Removal of four culverts, 4.)
Parcel-wide soil preparation, 5.) Riparian area restoration (replanting) extending from the top of bank
(TOB) out 200’ where applicable and, 6.) Parcel protection in perpetuity through a conservation
easement.

Restoration activates are planned to being in the fall of 2019 with planting occurring in January 2020.

Construction Activities (Figure 5)
Three primary construction activities will occur onsite, 1.) Removal of an existing, abandoned farm
building adjacent to feature 6B & removal of a powerline adjacent to features 6A and 6B, 2.) Removal of
existing compacted earth roads adjacent to features 6A, 6B, and 8, 3.) Removal of four culverts.

Upon the removal of the powerline, abandoned agricultural building, and existing compacted earth
roads, the Parcel will be treated to remove established costal Bermuda greases. A per-emergent
herbicide will be used to treat existing seed sources of undesirable herbaceous species. The Parcel will
then be disked, and allowed to reset during the fall 2019 growing season. Subsequent soil amendments
may be required based on observations and possible soil tests between September and December in
preparation for replanting in January of 2019.

Four culverts will be removed, two between features 5 and 6A, and two between features 7B and 8.
Once removed, the side slopes will be graded to match existing slopes at approximately a five to one
(5:1) slope. Matting, native seed mix, and live stakes will be used to stabilize the stream banks and to
avoid erosion, providing long-term stability. Where necessary, black willow live stakes will be used to
naturally stabilize the banks throughout the Parcel for the long-term.

Prior to planting, Parcel areas, will be ripped and scarified in linear bands perpendicular to the direction
of surface water flows. The established microtopography on leveled surfaces will promote diffuse flow
and surface water storage throughout the floodplain.

Impacts to Waters of US as a result of construction activities are summarized in Table 7 below.

Permitting
Activities outlined above do not require a permit or written notification to any regulatory agencies, i.e.
US Army Corps of Engineers, Johnston County FEMA, & NCDWR. Reasoning for each is summarized
below:

USACE –
Under no applicable USACE Permit do the construction activities summarized in Table 6 warrant
a USACE permit or consultation. Construction activities to Waters of the US will be far less than
thresholds which require consultation, i.e. 300 l. ft. to stream beds and 500 l. ft. to stream
banks.
(http://www.saw.usace.army.mil/Missions/Regulatory-Permit-Program/Permits/2017-
Nationwide-Permits/).

GUC Bank Parcel Development Plan
Tar-Pamlico River Basin 8-Digit HUC: 03020103 pg. 9
NCDWR –
Under no applicable USACE Permit do the construction activities summarized in Table 7 warrant
a USACE permit or consultation. Parcel visits with NC DWR Staff were conduction on November
11, 2017.

FEMA –
The Parcel is located within the Special Flood Hazard Area (SFHA) zone AE (1% annual chance of
flooding) and also Zone X (.2% annual chance of flooding) as a result of the Parcel’s proximity to
Tar-Pamlico River (Flood Insurance Rate Map [FIRM] NC, Panel 5607 J, 5608 K, and 5617 J).

FEMA coordination/review is conducted at the county level. Regulated activities within mapped
FEMA areas are discussed under Pitt County Planning & Development Services Ordinance No. 4
(https://www.pittcountync.gov/DocumentCenter/View/797/Flood-Damage-Prevention-
Ordinance-PDF?bidId=). Pitt County ordinances are specifically tied to substantial improvements
or new construction / development, not the removal of structures. Furthermore, there is no
restriction on plowing, or planting trees within Zone AE or Zone X if baseline flood elevations
have been determined.

In summary, the Parcel is located in FEMA Special Flood Hazard Area Zone AE and Zone X. Pitt
County, NC does not prohibit plowing and/or planting trees in such an area and therefore, FEMA
coordination is not required.

Land Quality: Sediment and Erosion Control –
The NC Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 governs all land disturbing activities except
agriculture and mining, which is regulated by the Mining Act of 1971. The restoration activities
proposed at the Parcel fall under the agricultural exemption. Light disking within the project
footprint will be done in a way that will reduce any excess runoff into waterbodies. A vegetated
strip along existing ditches and other waterbodies will be kept in place to further manage any
excess sediment from leaving the Parcel. The Parcel will be planted in temporary ground cover
for soil stabilization and reduction of sediment loss during rain events. The referenced Act is
provided in Appendix F.

Planting Plan
Restoration of the riparian area allows for recolonization and expansion of characteristic species across
the landscape. The riparian areas will be restored in accordance to 15A NCAC 02B .0295. The planting
plan for the entire riparian restoration area, includes planting bare root trees across 86.42 acres at a
density of 746 stems per acre and live stakes for stream bank stabilization where necessary. Community
associations utilized in the proposed planting plan below include 1.) Brownwater Bottomland
Hardwoods (High Subtype) and 2.) Mesic Mixed Hardwood Forest (Coastal Plain Subtype) (See Schafale
2012). Species composition is intentionally diverse and while based on these communities, also accounts
for local observations and nursery availability.

All species are proposed based on their ability for sediment stabilization, rapid growth rate, the ability to
withstand hydraulic forces associated with flood events, and suitability to specific soil types. Trees will
be planted at a density sufficient to meet the performance standards outlined in the Rule 15A NCAC 02B
.0295 of 260 trees per acre at the end of five years. No one tree species will be greater than 50% of the
established stems. Tree species proposed for planting are detailed in Table 8.

GUC Bank Parcel Development Plan
Tar-Pamlico River Basin 8-Digit HUC: 03020103 pg. 10

Site preparation will also be conducted to promote tree establishment and reduce potential competition
from non-native invasive species and other undesirable weedy species. Existing dense turf grasses will
be controlled to facilitate planting. This process will include the application of an herbaceous seed mix
including diverse native wildflowers and grasses which will serve as a nurse crop for the planted trees
and provide additional functional uplift to the site during its time as an open canopy stand.

Parcel Protection & Easement Boundaries
Prior to the release of any credits, the RS will record a permanent conservation easements at the Pitt
County Register of Deeds sufficient to ensure protection, operation and maintenance of restored
riparian buffers and other riparian areas in perpetuity.

The form of the conservation easement shall be consistent with the standards employed by the State of
North Carolina in the protection of restored riparian buffers and riparian areas and shall be approved by
the DWR prior to the release of any credits.

Parcel easement boundaries will be identified in the field to ensure clear distinction between the Parcel
and adjacent properties. Boundaries may be identified by cattle fence, marker, bollard, post, tree-
blazing, or other means as allowed by Parcel conditions and/or conservation easement. Boundary
markers disturbed, damaged, or destroyed will be repaired and/or replaced on an as needed basis. The
easement boundary will be checked annually as part of monitoring activities and reported to NCDWR.

Monitoring and Maintenance Plan
Monitoring Protocol
Restoration monitoring procedures for vegetation will monitor plant survival and species diversity.
Quantitative sampling will include eight-seven (87) permanent 10 x 10 meter vegetation plots as
outlined in the CVS Level 1-2 Protocol for Recording Vegetation, Version 4.2 (Lee et al. 2008) and will
occur in October of each year, with the 1st monitoring data to be collected no earlier than October. A
reference photo will be taken from the origin point of each plot. All planted stems in the plots will be
marked with flagging tape and recorded. Data collected will include: species, height, planting type
(planted stem and/or volunteer). Monitoring of the restoration efforts will be performed for five years
or until success criteria are fulfilled. Restoration Systems shall submit to NCDWR an annual monitoring
report, no later than December 31st of each year. Reports will document the success of the vegetation
and any maintenance, supplemental planting, or encroachment within the easement areas. Success
criteria within the buffer and nutrient offset restoration areas will be based on the survival of planted
species at a density of 260 stems per acre after five years of monitoring.

The first annual monitoring activities will commence at the end of the first growing season, at least five
months after planting has been completed.

Parcel Maintenance
A remedial action plan will be developed and implemented with the approval of NCDWR in the event
the Parcel or a specific component of the Parcel fails to achieve success criteria as outlined above.
Other vegetation maintenance and repair activities may include pruning, mulching, and fertilizing. In the
event that exotic invasive plant species require treatment, such species will be controlled by mechanical
(physical removal with the use of a chainsaw) and/or chemical methods (aquatic approved herbicide) in
accordance with North Carolina Department of Agriculture (NCDA) rules and regulations.

If mowing is deemed necessary by the Sponsor during the monitoring period, the Sponsor must receive
approval by the DWR prior to any mowing activities within Zone 1 and Zone 2 of the Neuse buffers along
UT2 to ensure that no buffer violations have been performed. Failure to receive approval to mow within
the Tar-Pamlico buffer as defined in 15A NCAC 02B .0258 by the DWR, could result in Tar-Pamlico buffer
violations and violations of the conservation easement. If necessary, the Sponsor will develop a species-
specific control plan.

GUC Bank Parcel Development Plan
Tar-Pamlico River Basin 8-Digit HUC: 03020103 pg. 12
Long Term Management Plan
The conservation easement will preserve all areas, and prohibit all use of the property inconsistent with
its use as mitigation property, including any activity that would materially alter the biological integrity of
the Parcel. RS will transfer or assign the conservation easement and its interests in perpetuity to a
qualified holder under NC General Statute (“GS”) 121-34 et seq. and 170(h) of the Internal Revenue
Code prior to the submittal of the Year 4 Monitoring Report. The holder shall be a land trust or
stewardship program that will hold and enforce the conservation easement and the interests in
perpetuity. The Sponsor shall choose a land trust or stewardship program that is accredited by the Land
Trust Accreditation Commission and/or has been approved by DWR prior to the end of the fourth year
monitoring period. A land trust must be certified under 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Financial Assurance
As stated in the Restoration Systems’ GUC Riparian Buffer and Nutrient Mitigation Banking Instrument,
dated to-be signed :

Following approval of the BPDP, the Sponsor shall provide a Performance Bond from a surety company
that is rated no less than an “A-” as rated by A.M. Best. The Performance Bond amount shall be 100% of
the estimated cost for implementation of the buffer restoration and/or stormwater BMP project as
described in the approved BPDP, but not less than $150,000.00.

Alternatively, in lieu of posting the Performance Bond, the Sponsor may elect to construct the project
prior to the first credit release.

After completion of the restoration/construction, a separate Performance/Maintenance Bond will be
secured for 100% of the estimated cost to implement the monitoring and maintenance plan but not less
than $100,000.00. The Performance/Maintenance Bond shall be in effect for a minimum of five years,
and until DWR has released all mitigation credits to the Bank Sponsor. Upon DWR approval, this may be
lowered each year based on the adjusted cost to complete the monitoring.

Monitoring bonds shall be renewed with confirmation of renewal provided to DWR with each annual
monitoring report for each phase. DWR reserves the right to alter the credit release schedule if
monitoring reports are submitted without proof of bond renewals.

Mitigation Potential
DWR has determined the nitrogen and phosphorous abatement of restored riparian area to be 2,273.02
lbs. per acre for nitrogen and 146.4 lbs. per acre the phosphorous. Riparian buffer credits will be
measured by the hundredth of an acre and converted into square feet.

The Parcel will generate 87.06 acres of restored riparian area within a 97.89 acre Parcel. The table below
outlines the Parcel’s components and mitigation credits to be generated within the difference riparian
area zones. The Tar-Pamlico riparian buffer mitigation credit generated along Features 2, 6B, 7A, 7B, & 8
(unnamed tributaries) can be used for either riparian buffer credits or nutrient offset credits (nitrogen
and phosphorous, but not both. Nutrient offset credits (nitrogen and phosphorous) generated along the
two surface water conveyances (ditches), Features 5 and 6A, are not able to be converted into buffer
mitigation credits. RS must request and receive approval of the transfer of any mitigation credits from
DWR prior to adding or removing credits from the ledgers. The Sponsor will maintain three credit

GUC Bank Parcel Development Plan
Tar-Pamlico River Basin 8-Digit HUC: 03020103 pg. 13
ledgers. One ledger will account for riparian buffer credits, one will account for nitrogen nutrient offset
credits, and one will account for phosphorous nutrient offset credits. All mitigation credit assets shall be
shown on these credit ledgers. Overall credit generation is detailed in Table 9 and 10 below and shown
on Figure 6A-C.

Located near Aqua Lane & Sunnyside Rd, Greenville, NC
Pitt County
Dear Mr. Holz,
On March 25, 2019, a Site Viability for buffer mitigation and nutrient offset was issued to Restoration
Systems, LLC (RS) by the Division of Water Resources (DWR) for the GUC/City of Greenville Site. On
May 14, 2019, you submitted a request to Katie Merritt with DWR to re-evaluate the hydrologic
connection of Feature 5 to Feature 6A. Supporting information was provided to Ms. Merritt on May 9,
2019, which included site photos and a video. This information confirms there is a hydrologic connection
between Feature 5 and Feature 6A and is therefore viable for riparian restoration. This mitigation
determination replaces only the mitigation determination made for Feature 5 in the letter dated March 25,
2019. All other mitigation determinations made on March 25, 2019 remain the same.
This evaluation was made from Top of Bank (TOB) and landward 200' from each feature for buffer
mitigation pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B .0295 (effective November 1, 2015) and for nutrient offset credits
pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B .0240.

Maps for reference are attached to this letter and were initialed by Ms. Merritt on December 20, 2017,
March 12, 2019 and May 29, 2019. This letter should be provided in all stream and wetland, buffer
and/or nutrient offset mitigation plans for this Site.
This letter does not constitute an approval of this site to generate nutrient offsets or buffer
mitigation credits. Pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B .0295, a mitigation proposal and a mitigation plan
shall be submitted to DWR for written approval prior to conducting any mitigation activities in
riparian areas and/or surface waters for buffer mitigation credit. Pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B
.0240, a proposal regarding a proposed nutrient load -reducing measure for nutrient offset credit
shall be submitted to DWR for approval prior to any mitigation activities in riparian areas and/or
surface waters.
All vegetative plantings, performance criteria and other mitigation requirements for riparian restoration,
enhancement and preservation must follow the requirements in 15A NCAC 02B .0295 to be eligible for
buffer and/or nutrient offset mitigation credits. Any site constraints found on the property must be
presented to DWR for a full evaluation and final mitigation determination. For any areas depicted as not
being viable for nutrient offset credit above, one could propose a different measure, along with supporting
calculations and sufficient detail to support estimates of load reduction, for review by the DWR to
determine viability for nutrient offset in accordance with 15A NCAC 02B .0240. A Mitigation Banking
Instrument approved by the DWR will be required for this site to be eligible to use as a mitigation bank.
This viability assessment will expire on March 25, 2021 or upon the submittal of an As -Built Report to
the DWR, whichever comes first. Please contact Katie Merritt at [phone] if you have any
questions regarding this correspondence.

Re: Site Viability for Buffer Mitigation & Nutrient Offset — GUC/City of Greenville Site
Tar -Pamlico River Basin — 03020103 HUC
Located near Aqua Lane & Sunnyside Rd, Greenville, NC
Pitt County
Dear Mr. Holz,
On September 1, 2017, Katie Merritt, with the Division of Water Resources (DWR), received a
request from Greene Environmental Services, LLC (GES) for a site visit near the above -referenced
site in the Tar -Pamlico River Basin. The request was for DWR to determine the potential for riparian
buffer mitigation and nutrient offset on adjoining lands currently owned by the City of Greenville
near the Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWIT). On November 14, 2017, Ms. Merritt performed an
onsite assessment of the subject site and identified the following site constraints in correspondence to
Jeff Becker with GES on January 16, 2018:
• UTILITIES: Natural gas lines and other utility lines are present throughout the
property both underground and above ground. Their specific locations and associated
easements were unknown at time of site visit.
• PERMITS: State, Federal and/or Local permits may be associated with this property.
Wetland delineation flagging was observed onsite and gas lines were seen crossing
wetlands. No knowledge of permits obtained for impacts associated with streams,
wetlands or buffers was provided to Ms. Merritt onsite to confirm compliance with
regulations.
• EXISTING PATHS & ROADS: The City of Greenville owns this property and has
used the land for applying their biosolids associated with the W WTP. Existing dirt
paths and deeded access roads are present and are adjacent to ditches and streams
onsite where mitigation would be proposed.
Due to the magnitude of site constraints noted above, Ms. Merritt was unable to complete a viability
assessment review of the site for GES. On January 22, 2019, Ms. Merritt received another site
viability request for the subject site, but from Restoration Systems, LLC (RS). The request from RS
included a landowner authorization form authorizing RS to act on behalf of the City of Greenville for
a viability assessment on their property, which is more accurately shown on the attached map
labeled, "Figure 1. Existing Site Conditions". RS also provided information regarding all the
utilities, permits and deeded access easements associated with the subject site. On March 13, 2019,

RS provided site photos showing existing conditions of the riparian areas adjacent to each feature
onsite. When comparing these photos to notes taken during Ms. Merritt's original site visit in 2017,
no land use changes appear to have occurred. With all the information provided by RS, Ms. Merritt
was able to complete the viability assessment for the subject site.
Ms. Merritt's evaluation of the features onsite and their associated mitigation determination for the
riparian areas are provided in the table below. This evaluation was made from Top of Bank (TOB)
and landward 200' from each feature for buffer mitigation pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B .0295
(effective November 1, 2015) and for nutrient offset credits pursuant to 15A NCAC 02B .0240.

Preface
Soil surveys contain information that affects land use planning in survey areas.
They highlight soil limitations that affect various land uses and provide information
about the properties of the soils in the survey areas. Soil surveys are designed for
many different users, including farmers, ranchers, foresters, agronomists, urban
planners, community officials, engineers, developers, builders, and home buyers.
Also, conservationists, teachers, students, and specialists in recreation, waste
disposal, and pollution control can use the surveys to help them understand,
protect, or enhance the environment.
Various land use regulations of Federal, State, and local governments may impose
special restrictions on land use or land treatment. Soil surveys identify soil
properties that are used in making various land use or land treatment decisions.
The information is intended to help the land users identify and reduce the effects of
soil limitations on various land uses. The landowner or user is responsible for
identifying and complying with existing laws and regulations.
Although soil survey information can be used for general farm, local, and wider area
planning, onsite investigation is needed to supplement this information in some
cases. Examples include soil quality assessments (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/
portal/nrcs/main/soils/health/) and certain conservation and engineering
applications. For more detailed information, contact your local USDA Service Center
(https://offices.sc.egov.usda.gov/locator/app?agency=nrcs) or your NRCS State Soil
Scientist (http://www.nrcs.usda.gov/wps/portal/nrcs/detail/soils/contactus/?
cid=nrcs142p2_053951).
Great differences in soil properties can occur within short distances. Some soils are
seasonally wet or subject to flooding. Some are too unstable to be used as a
foundation for buildings or roads. Clayey or wet soils are poorly suited to use as
septic tank absorption fields. A high water table makes a soil poorly suited to
basements or underground installations.
The National Cooperative Soil Survey is a joint effort of the United States
Department of Agriculture and other Federal agencies, State agencies including the
Agricultural Experiment Stations, and local agencies. The Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) has leadership for the Federal part of the National
Cooperative Soil Survey.
Information about soils is updated periodically. Updated information is available
through the NRCS Web Soil Survey, the site for official soil survey information.

How Soil Surveys Are Made
Soil surveys are made to provide information about the soils and miscellaneous
areas in a specific area. They include a description of the soils and miscellaneous
areas and their location on the landscape and tables that show soil properties and
limitations affecting various uses. Soil scientists observed the steepness, length,
and shape of the slopes; the general pattern of drainage; the kinds of crops and
native plants; and the kinds of bedrock. They observed and described many soil
profiles. A soil profile is the sequence of natural layers, or horizons, in a soil. The
profile extends from the surface down into the unconsolidated material in which the
soil formed or from the surface down to bedrock. The unconsolidated material is
devoid of roots and other living organisms and has not been changed by other
biological activity.
Currently, soils are mapped according to the boundaries of major land resource
areas (MLRAs). MLRAs are geographically associated land resource units that
share common characteristics related to physiography, geology, climate, water
resources, soils, biological resources, and land uses (USDA, 2006). Soil survey
areas typically consist of parts of one or more MLRA.
The soils and miscellaneous areas in a survey area occur in an orderly pattern that
is related to the geology, landforms, relief, climate, and natural vegetation of the
area. Each kind of soil and miscellaneous area is associated with a particular kind
of landform or with a segment of the landform. By observing the soils and
miscellaneous areas in the survey area and relating their position to specific
segments of the landform, a soil scientist develops a concept, or model, of how they
were formed. Thus, during mapping, this model enables the soil scientist to predict
with a considerable degree of accuracy the kind of soil or miscellaneous area at a
specific location on the landscape.
Commonly, individual soils on the landscape merge into one another as their
characteristics gradually change. To construct an accurate soil map, however, soil
scientists must determine the boundaries between the soils. They can observe only
a limited number of soil profiles. Nevertheless, these observations, supplemented
by an understanding of the soil-vegetation-landscape relationship, are sufficient to
verify predictions of the kinds of soil in an area and to determine the boundaries.
Soil scientists recorded the characteristics of the soil profiles that they studied. They
noted soil color, texture, size and shape of soil aggregates, kind and amount of rock
fragments, distribution of plant roots, reaction, and other features that enable them
to identify soils. After describing the soils in the survey area and determining their
properties, the soil scientists assigned the soils to taxonomic classes (units).
Taxonomic classes are concepts. Each taxonomic class has a set of soil
characteristics with precisely defined limits. The classes are used as a basis for
comparison to classify soils systematically. Soil taxonomy, the system of taxonomic
classification used in the United States, is based mainly on the kind and character
of soil properties and the arrangement of horizons within the profile. After the soil
5
scientists classified and named the soils in the survey area, they compared the
individual soils with similar soils in the same taxonomic class in other areas so that
they could confirm data and assemble additional data based on experience and
research.
The objective of soil mapping is not to delineate pure map unit components; the
objective is to separate the landscape into landforms or landform segments that
have similar use and management requirements. Each map unit is defined by a
unique combination of soil components and/or miscellaneous areas in predictable
proportions. Some components may be highly contrasting to the other components
of the map unit. The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way
diminishes the usefulness or accuracy of the data. The delineation of such
landforms and landform segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, onsite
investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous areas.
Soil scientists make many field observations in the process of producing a soil map.
The frequency of observation is dependent upon several factors, including scale of
mapping, intensity of mapping, design of map units, complexity of the landscape,
and experience of the soil scientist. Observations are made to test and refine the
soil-landscape model and predictions and to verify the classification of the soils at
specific locations. Once the soil-landscape model is refined, a significantly smaller
number of measurements of individual soil properties are made and recorded.
These measurements may include field measurements, such as those for color,
depth to bedrock, and texture, and laboratory measurements, such as those for
content of sand, silt, clay, salt, and other components. Properties of each soil
typically vary from one point to another across the landscape.
Observations for map unit components are aggregated to develop ranges of
characteristics for the components. The aggregated values are presented. Direct
measurements do not exist for every property presented for every map unit
component. Values for some properties are estimated from combinations of other
properties.
While a soil survey is in progress, samples of some of the soils in the area generally
are collected for laboratory analyses and for engineering tests. Soil scientists
interpret the data from these analyses and tests as well as the field-observed
characteristics and the soil properties to determine the expected behavior of the
soils under different uses. Interpretations for all of the soils are field tested through
observation of the soils in different uses and under different levels of management.
Some interpretations are modified to fit local conditions, and some new
interpretations are developed to meet local needs. Data are assembled from other
sources, such as research information, production records, and field experience of
specialists. For example, data on crop yields under defined levels of management
are assembled from farm records and from field or plot experiments on the same
kinds of soil.
Predictions about soil behavior are based not only on soil properties but also on
such variables as climate and biological activity. Soil conditions are predictable over
long periods of time, but they are not predictable from year to year. For example,
soil scientists can predict with a fairly high degree of accuracy that a given soil will
have a high water table within certain depths in most years, but they cannot predict
that a high water table will always be at a specific level in the soil on a specific date.
After soil scientists located and identified the significant natural bodies of soil in the
survey area, they drew the boundaries of these bodies on aerial photographs and

identified each as a specific map unit. Aerial photographs show trees, buildings,
fields, roads, and rivers, all of which help in locating boundaries accurately.

Map Unit Descriptions
The map units delineated on the detailed soil maps in a soil survey represent the
soils or miscellaneous areas in the survey area. The map unit descriptions, along
with the maps, can be used to determine the composition and properties of a unit.
A map unit delineation on a soil map represents an area dominated by one or more
major kinds of soil or miscellaneous areas. A map unit is identified and named
according to the taxonomic classification of the dominant soils. Within a taxonomic
class there are precisely defined limits for the properties of the soils. On the
landscape, however, the soils are natural phenomena, and they have the
characteristic variability of all natural phenomena. Thus, the range of some
observed properties may extend beyond the limits defined for a taxonomic class.
Areas of soils of a single taxonomic class rarely, if ever, can be mapped without
including areas of other taxonomic classes. Consequently, every map unit is made
up of the soils or miscellaneous areas for which it is named and some minor
components that belong to taxonomic classes other than those of the major soils.
Most minor soils have properties similar to those of the dominant soil or soils in the
map unit, and thus they do not affect use and management. These are called
noncontrasting, or similar, components. They may or may not be mentioned in a
particular map unit description. Other minor components, however, have properties
and behavioral characteristics divergent enough to affect use or to require different
management. These are called contrasting, or dissimilar, components. They
Custom Soil Resource Report
11
generally are in small areas and could not be mapped separately because of the
scale used. Some small areas of strongly contrasting soils or miscellaneous areas
are identified by a special symbol on the maps. If included in the database for a
given area, the contrasting minor components are identified in the map unit
descriptions along with some characteristics of each. A few areas of minor
components may not have been observed, and consequently they are not
mentioned in the descriptions, especially where the pattern was so complex that it
was impractical to make enough observations to identify all the soils and
miscellaneous areas on the landscape.
The presence of minor components in a map unit in no way diminishes the
usefulness or accuracy of the data. The objective of mapping is not to delineate
pure taxonomic classes but rather to separate the landscape into landforms or
landform segments that have similar use and management requirements. The
delineation of such segments on the map provides sufficient information for the
development of resource plans. If intensive use of small areas is planned, however,
onsite investigation is needed to define and locate the soils and miscellaneous
areas.
An identifying symbol precedes the map unit name in the map unit descriptions.
Each description includes general facts about the unit and gives important soil
properties and qualities.
Soils that have profiles that are almost alike make up a soil series. Except for
differences in texture of the surface layer, all the soils of a series have major
horizons that are similar in composition, thickness, and arrangement.
Soils of one series can differ in texture of the surface layer, slope, stoniness,
salinity, degree of erosion, and other characteristics that affect their use. On the
basis of such differences, a soil series is divided into soil phases. Most of the areas
shown on the detailed soil maps are phases of soil series. The name of a soil phase
commonly indicates a feature that affects use or management. For example, Alpha
silt loam, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is a phase of the Alpha series.
Some map units are made up of two or more major soils or miscellaneous areas.
These map units are complexes, associations, or undifferentiated groups.
A complex consists of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas in such an intricate
pattern or in such small areas that they cannot be shown separately on the maps.
The pattern and proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat similar
in all areas. Alpha-Beta complex, 0 to 6 percent slopes, is an example.
An association is made up of two or more geographically associated soils or
miscellaneous areas that are shown as one unit on the maps. Because of present
or anticipated uses of the map units in the survey area, it was not considered
practical or necessary to map the soils or miscellaneous areas separately. The
pattern and relative proportion of the soils or miscellaneous areas are somewhat
similar. Alpha-Beta association, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
An undifferentiated group is made up of two or more soils or miscellaneous areas
that could be mapped individually but are mapped as one unit because similar
interpretations can be made for use and management. The pattern and proportion
of the soils or miscellaneous areas in a mapped area are not uniform. An area can
be made up of only one of the major soils or miscellaneous areas, or it can be made
up of all of them. Alpha and Beta soils, 0 to 2 percent slopes, is an example.
Some surveys include miscellaneous areas. Such areas have little or no soil
material and support little or no vegetation. Rock outcrop is an example.

RE: GUC Property
Dear Alexander Baldwin:
The North Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) appreciates the opportunity to provide
information about natural heritage resources for the project referenced above.
A query of the NCNHP database indicates that there are records for rare species, important natural
communities, natural areas, and/or conservation/managed areas within the proposed project
boundary. These results are presented in the attached ‘Documented Occurrences’ tables and map.
The attached ‘Potential Occurrences’ table summarizes rare species and natural communities that
have been documented within a one-mile radius of the property boundary. The proximity of these
records suggests that these natural heritage elements may potentially be present in the project area
if suitable habitat exists. Tables of natural areas and conservation/managed areas within a one-mile
radius of the project area, if any, are also included in this report.
If a Federally-listed species is documented within the project area or indicated within a one-mile
radius of the project area, the NCNHP recommends contacting the US Fish and Wildlife Service
(USFWS) for guidance. Contact information for USFWS offices in North Carolina is found here:
https://www.fws.gov/offices/Directory/ListOffices.cfm?statecode=37.
Please note that natural heritage element data are maintained for the purposes of conservation
planning, project review, and scientific research, and are not intended for use as the primary criteria
for regulatory decisions. Information provided by the NCNHP database may not be published
without prior written notification to the NCNHP, and the NCNHP must be credited as an information
source in these publications. Maps of NCNHP data may not be redistributed without permission.
Also please note that the NC Natural Heritage Program may follow this letter with additional
correspondence if a Dedicated Nature Preserve, Registered Heritage Area, Clean Water
Management Trust Fund easement, or an occurrence of a Federally-listed species is documented
near the project area.
If you have questions regarding the information provided in this letter or need additional assistance,
please contact Rodney A. Butler at [e-mail] or 919-707-8603.
Sincerely,
NC Natural Heritage Program

Consultation Code: 04EN2000-2019-SLI-0082
Event Code: 04EN2000-2019-E-00175
Project Name: GUC Nutrient Buffer Bank

Subject:List of threatened and endangered species that may occur in your proposed project
location, and/or may be affected by your proposed project
To Whom It May Concern:
The species list generated pursuant to the information you provided identifies threatened,
endangered, proposed and candidate species, as well as proposed and final designated critical
habitat, that may occur within the boundary of your proposed project and/or may be affected by
your proposed project. The species list fulfills the requirements of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service (Service) under section 7(c) of the Endangered Species Act (Act) of 1973, as amended
(16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.).
New information based on updated surveys, changes in the abundance and distribution of
species, changed habitat conditions, or other factors could change this list. Please feel free to
contact us if you need more current information or assistance regarding the potential impacts to
federally proposed, listed, and candidate species and federally designated and proposed critical
habitat. Please note that under 50 CFR 402.12(e) of the regulations implementing section 7 of the
Act, the accuracy of this species list should be verified after 90 days. This verification can be
completed formally or informally as desired. The Service recommends that verification be
completed by visiting the ECOS-IPaC website at regular intervals during project planning and
implementation for updates to species lists and information. An updated list may be requested
through the ECOS-IPaC system by completing the same process used to receive the enclosed list.
Section 7 of the Act requires that all federal agencies (or their designated non-federal
representative), in consultation with the Service, insure that any action federally authorized,
funded, or carried out by such agencies is not likely to jeopardize the continued existence of any
federally-listed endangered or threatened species. A biological assessment or evaluation may be
prepared to fulfill that requirement and in determining whether additional consultation with the
Service is necessary. In addition to the federally-protected species list, information on the
species' life histories and habitats and information on completing a biological assessment or
October 24, 2018
10/24/2018 Event Code: 04EN2000-2019-E-00175   2

evaluation and can be found on our web page at http://www.fws.gov/raleigh. Please check the
web site often for updated information or changes
If your project contains suitable habitat for any of the federally-listed species known to be
present within the county where your project occurs, the proposed action has the potential to
adversely affect those species. As such, we recommend that surveys be conducted to determine
the species' presence or absence within the project area. The use of North Carolina Natural
Heritage program data should not be substituted for actual field surveys.
If you determine that the proposed action may affect (i.e., likely to adversely affect or not likely
to adversely affect) a federally-protected species, you should notify this office with your
determination, the results of your surveys, survey methodologies, and an analysis of the effects
of the action on listed species, including consideration of direct, indirect, and cumulative effects,
before conducting any activities that might affect the species. If you determine that the proposed
action will have no effect (i.e., no beneficial or adverse, direct or indirect effect) on federally
listed species, then you are not required to contact our office for concurrence (unless an
Environmental Impact Statement is prepared). However, you should maintain a complete record
of the assessment, including steps leading to your determination of effect, the qualified personnel
conducting the assessment, habitat conditions, site photographs, and any other related articles.
Please be aware that bald and golden eagles are protected under the Bald and Golden Eagle
Protection Act (16 U.S.C. 668 et seq.), and projects affecting these species may require
development of an eagle conservation plan (http://www.fws.gov/windenergy/
eagle_guidance.html). Additionally, wind energy projects should follow the wind energy
guidelines (http://www.fws.gov/windenergy/) for minimizing impacts to migratory birds and
bats.
Guidance for minimizing impacts to migratory birds for projects including communications
towers (e.g., cellular, digital television, radio, and emergency broadcast) can be found at: http://
www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/CurrentBirdIssues/Hazards/towers/towers.htm; http://
www.towerkill.com; and http://www.fws.gov/migratorybirds/CurrentBirdIssues/Hazards/towers/
comtow.html.
Not all Threatened and Endangered Species that occur in North Carolina are subject to section 7
consultation with the U.S Fish and Wildlife Service. Atlantic and shortnose sturgeon, sea
turtles,when in the water, and certain marine mammals are under purview of the National Marine
Fisheries Service. If your project occurs in marine, estuarine, or coastal river systems you should
also contact the National Marine Fisheries Service, http://www.nmfs.noaa.gov/
We appreciate your concern for threatened and endangered species. The Service encourages
Federal agencies to include conservation of threatened and endangered species into their project
planning to further the purposes of the Act. Please include the Consultation Tracking Number in
the header of this letter with any request for consultation or correspondence about your project

Re: Greenville Utilities Commission Nutrient Offset Bank Project, Pitt County, ER 19-1476

Dear Mr. Hamby:

We received the request for environmental review pertaining to the Greenville Utilities Commission’s proposed
Nutrient-Offset Bank. North Carolina Office of State Archaeology (OSA) records indicate that 20 recorded
archaeological sites occur within the project footprint area. Some were found and recorded in the 1980’s by East
Carolina University’s Anthropology Department and others were discovered during a survey performed in 1992 by
Archaeological Research Consultants, Inc. (ER 92-7060). Most of these sites are located adjacent and south of
Tributary #2 and adjacent to Barber Creek. No evidence was found to indicate that these sites were assessed for
their potential eligibility for inclusion on the National Register of Historic Places. A map of these sites and their
relative association with modern land features is available through the OSA.

Given the nature of this project it is understood that various degrees of disturbance are to be expected. We would
appreciate more detailed explanations of the specific disturbances associated with the project. Extensive disturbance
such as rerouting or de-channelization of Tributary #2 may involve finding and assessing archaeological sites that
may be affected.

We have determined that the project as proposed will not have an effect on any historic structures.

The above comments are made pursuant to Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and the Advisory
Council on Historic Preservation’s Regulations for Compliance with Section 106 codified at 36 CFR Part 800.

Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions concerning the above comment, contact
Renee Gledhill-Earley, environmental review coordinator, at 919-807-6579 or [e-mail]. In
all future communication concerning this project, please cite the above referenced tracking number.
Sincerely,

Ramona Bartos, Deputy
State Historic Preservation Officer

SURROUNDING SITES: SEARCH RESULTS
Surrounding sites were identified in the following databases.
Elevations have been determined from the USGS Digital Elevation Model and should be evaluated on
a relative (not an absolute) basis. Relative elevation information between sites of close proximity
should be field verified. Sites with an elevation equal to or higher than the target property have been
differentiated below from sites with an elevation lower than the target property.
Page numbers and map identification numbers refer to the EDR Radius Map report where detailed
data on individual sites can be reviewed.
Sites listed in bold italics are in multiple databases.
Unmappable (orphan) sites are not considered in the foregoing analysis.

SEMS: Superfund Enterprise Management System
SEMS (Superfund Enterprise Management System) tracks hazardous waste sites, potentially hazardous waste sites,
and remedial activities performed in support of EPA’s Superfund Program across the United States. The list was
formerly know as CERCLIS, renamed to SEMS by the EPA in 2015. The list contains data on potentially hazardous
waste sites that have been reported to the USEPA by states, municipalities, private companies and private persons,
pursuant to Section 103 of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA).
This dataset also contains sites which are either proposed to or on the National Priorities List (NPL) and the
sites which are in the screening and assessment phase for possible inclusion on the NPL.

TC5624383.2s Page GR-2
GOVERNMENT RECORDS SEARCHED / DATA CURRENCY TRACKING
SEMS-ARCHIVE (Superfund Enterprise Management System Archive) tracks sites that have no further interest under
the Federal Superfund Program based on available information. The list was formerly known as the CERCLIS-NFRAP,
renamed to SEMS ARCHIVE by the EPA in 2015. EPA may perform a minimal level of assessment work at a site while
it is archived if site conditions change and/or new information becomes available. Archived sites have been removed
and archived from the inventory of SEMS sites. Archived status indicates that, to the best of EPA’s knowledge,
assessment at a site has been completed and that EPA has determined no further steps will be taken to list the
site on the National Priorities List (NPL), unless information indicates this decision was not appropriate or
other considerations require a recommendation for listing at a later time. The decision does not necessarily mean
that there is no hazard associated with a given site; it only means that. based upon available information, the
location is not judged to be potential NPL site.

Brownfields are real property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be complicated by the presence
or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. Cleaning up and reinvesting in these
properties takes development pressures off of undeveloped, open land, and both improves and protects the environment.
Assessment, Cleanup and Redevelopment Exchange System (ACRES) stores information reported by EPA Brownfields
grant recipients on brownfields properties assessed or cleaned up with grant funding as well as information on
Targeted Brownfields Assessments performed by EPA Regions. A listing of ACRES Brownfield sites is obtained from
Cleanups in My Community. Cleanups in My Community provides information on Brownfields properties for which information
is reported back to EPA, as well as areas served by Brownfields grant programs.

EPA WATCH LIST: EPA WATCH LIST
EPA maintains a "Watch List" to facilitate dialogue between EPA, state and local environmental agencies on enforcement
matters relating to facilities with alleged violations identified as either significant or high priority. Being
on the Watch List does not mean that the facility has actually violated the law only that an investigation by
EPA or a state or local environmental agency has led those organizations to allege that an unproven violation
has in fact occurred. Being on the Watch List does not represent a higher level of concern regarding the alleged
violations that were detected, but instead indicates cases requiring additional dialogue between EPA, state and
local agencies - primarily because of the length of time the alleged violation has gone unaddressed or unresolved.

contains a wide variety of sites. Some properties are heavily contaminated while others were contaminated but
have since been cleaned up. Still others have not been fully investigated yet, and may require little or no remediation.
Inclusion in the 2020 Universe does not necessarily imply failure on the part of a facility to meet its RCRA obligations.

When Congress passed the Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, it required EPA to publish regulations and guidance
for chemical accident prevention at facilities using extremely hazardous substances. The Risk Management Program
Rule (RMP Rule) was written to implement Section 112(r) of these amendments. The rule, which built upon existing
industry codes and standards, requires companies of all sizes that use certain flammable and toxic substances
to develop a Risk Management Program, which includes a(n): Hazard assessment that details the potential effects
of an accidental release, an accident history of the last five years, and an evaluation of worst-case and alternative
accidental releases; Prevention program that includes safety precautions and maintenance, monitoring, and employee
training measures; and Emergency response program that spells out emergency health care, employee training measures
and procedures for informing the public and response agencies (e.g the fire department) should an accident occur.

EDR MGP: EDR Proprietary Manufactured Gas Plants
The EDR Proprietary Manufactured Gas Plant Database includes records of coal gas plants (manufactured gas plants)
compiled by EDR’s researchers. Manufactured gas sites were used in the United States from the 1800’s to 1950’s
to produce a gas that could be distributed and used as fuel. These plants used whale oil, rosin, coal, or a mixture
of coal, oil, and water that also produced a significant amount of waste. Many of the byproducts of the gas production,
such as coal tar (oily waste containing volatile and non-volatile chemicals), sludges, oils and other compounds
are potentially hazardous to human health and the environment. The byproduct from this process was frequently
disposed of directly at the plant site and can remain or spread slowly, serving as a continuous source of soil
and groundwater contamination.

EDR Hist Auto: EDR Exclusive Historical Auto Stations
EDR has searched selected national collections of business directories and has collected listings of potential
gas station/filling station/service station sites that were available to EDR researchers. EDR’s review was limited
to those categories of sources that might, in EDR’s opinion, include gas station/filling station/service station
establishments. The categories reviewed included, but were not limited to gas, gas station, gasoline station,
filling station, auto, automobile repair, auto service station, service station, etc. This database falls within
a category of information EDR classifies as "High Risk Historical Records", or HRHR. EDR’s HRHR effort presents
unique and sometimes proprietary data about past sites and operations that typically create environmental concerns,
but may not show up in current government records searches.

DATUM INFORMATION
The projection used in the preparation of this map was the North Carolina
State Plane (FIPSZONE 3200). The horizontal datum was the North American
Datum of 1983, GRS80 ellipsoid. Differences in datum, ellipsoid, projection, or
Universal Transverse Mercator zones used in the production of FIRMS for adjacent
jurisdictions may result in slight positional differences in map features across
jurisdictional boundaries. These differences do not affect the accuracy of this
FIRM. All coordinates on this map are in U.S. Survey Feet, where
1 U.S. Surrey Foot = 1200/3937 Meters.
Flood elevations on this map are referenced to the North American Vertical
Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). These flood elevations must be compared to structure
and ground elevations referenced to the same vertical datum. An average
offset between NAVD 88 and the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929
(NGVD 29) has been computed for each North Carolina county. This offset was
then applied to the NGVD 29 flood elevations that were not revised during the
creation of this statewide format FIRM. The offsets for each county shown on
this FIRM panel are shown in the vertical datum offset table below. Where a
county boundary and a flooding source with unrevised NGVD 29 flood elevations
are coincident, an individual offset has been calculated and applied during the
creation of this statewide format FIRM. See Section 6.1 of the accompanying
Flood Insurance Study report to obtain further information on the conversion
of elevations between NAVD 88 and NGVD 29. To obtain current elevation,
description, and/or location information for bench marks shown on this map,
please contact the North Carolina Geodetic Survey at the address shown below.
You may also contact the Information Services Branch of the National Geodetic
Survey at [phone], or visit their website at vwvw.ngs.noaa.gov.

All streams listed in the Flood Hazard Data Table below were studied by
detailed methods using field survey. Other flood hazard data shown on this
map may have been derived using either a coastal analysis or limited detailed
riverine analysis, More information on the flooding sources studied by these
analyses is contained in the Flood Insurance Study report.

This digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) was produced through a unique
cooperative partnership between the State of North Carolina and the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The State of North Carolina has
implemented a long term approach of floodplain management to decrease
the costs associated with flooding. This is demonstrated by the State's com-
mitment to map floodplain areas at the local level. As a part of this effort, the
State of North Carolina has joined in a Cooperating Technical State agreement
with FEMA to produce and maintain this digital FIRM.

This map is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance Program. It does not
necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding, particularly from local drainage sources
of small size. The community map repository should be consulted for possible updated
or additional flood hazard information.
To obtain more detailed information in areas where Base Flood ElevationsBFEs
( )
and/or floodways have been determined, users are encouraged to consult the Flood
Profiles, Floodway Data and/or Summary of Stillwater Elevations tables contained within
the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report that accompanies this FIRM. Users should be
aware that BFEs shown on the FIRM represent rounded whole -foot elevations, These
BFEs are intended for flood insurance rating purposes only and should not be used
as the sole source of flood elevation information. Accordingly, flood elevation data
presented in the FIS report should be utilized in conjunction with the FIRM for purposes
of construction and/or floodplain management.
Boundaries of the floodways were computed at cross sections and interpolated between
cross sections. The floodways were based on hydraulic considerations with regard to
requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program. Floodway widths and other
pertinent floodway data are provided in the Flood Insurance Study report for the jurisdictions.

Certain areas not in Special Flood Hazard Areas may be protected by flood control
structures. Refer to Section 4.4 "Flood Protection Measures" of the Flood Insurance
Study 1
report far information an flood control structures in the jurisdictions.
p
Base map information and geospatial data used to develop this FIRM were obtained from
various organizations, including the participating local community(ies), state and federal
agencies, and/or other sources. The primary base for this FIRM is aerial imagery acquired as
part of the National Digital Orthophoto Program. The time period of collection for the
imagery is 1998-1999. Information and geospatial data supplied by the local community(ies)
that met FEMA base map specifications were considered the preferred source for
development of the base map. See geospatial metadata for the associated digital FIRM
for additional information about base map preparation.
Base map features shown on this map, such as corporate limits, are based on the
most up-to-date data available at the time of publication. Changes in the corporate
limits may have occurred since this map was published. Map users should
consult the appropriate community official or website to verify current conditions of
jurisdictional boundaries and base map features.

This map reflects more detailed and up-to-date stream channel configurations than
those shown on the previous FIRM for this jurisdiction. The floodplains and floodways

SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREAS (SFHAs) SUB)ECT TO
INUNDATION BY THE 1 % ANNUAL CHANCE FLOOD
The 1 % annual chance flood (100 -year flood), also known as the base flood, is the flood
that has a I% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. The Special
Flood Hazard Area is the area subject to flooding by the 1% annual chance flood. Areas
of Special Flood Hazard include Zones A, AE, AH, AO, AR, A99, V, and VE. The Base
Flood Elevation is the water -surface elevation of the 1% annual chance flood.
ZONE A No Base Flood Elevations determined.
ZONE AE Base Flood Elevations determined.
ZONE AH Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually areas of ponding); Base Flood
Elevations determined.
ZONE AO Flood depths of 7 to 3 feet (usually sheet flow on sloping terrain);
average depths determined. For areas of alluvial fan flooding, velocities
also determined.
ZONE AR Special Flood Hazard Area formerly protected from the 1% annual
chance flood by a flood control system that was subsequently
decertified. zone AR indicates that the former flood control system is
being restored to provide protection from the 1% annual chance or
greater flood.
ZONE A99 Area to be protected from 1 % annual chance flood by a Federal
flood protection system under construction; no Base Flood Elevations
determined.
ZONE VE Coastal flood zone with velocity hazard (wave action); Base Flood Elevations
determined.
0 FLOODWAY AREAS IN ZONE AE
The floodway is the channel of a stream plus any adjacent floodplain areas that must be
kept free of encroachment so that the 1% annual chance flood can be carried without
substantial increases in flood heights.
OTHER FLOOD AREAS
ZONE X Areas of 0,2% annual chance flood; areas of 1"/ annual chance flood
with average depths of less than 1 foot or with drainage areas less than
7 square mile; and areas protected by levees from 1 % annual chance
flood.

LEGEND
SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREAS (SFHA5) SUBJECT TO
INUNDATION BY THE 1% ANNUAL CHANCE FLOOD EVENT
The 1% annual chance flood (100 -year flood), also known as the base flood, is the flood that
has a 1% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. The Special Flood Hazard
Area is the area subject to flooding by the 1% annual chance flood. Areas of Special Flood
Hazard include Zones A, AE, AH, AO, AR, A99, V, and VE. The Base Flood Elevation is the
water -surface elevation of the 1% annual chance flood.
ZONE A No Base Flood Elevation determined.
ZONE AE Base Flood Elevations determined.
ZONE AH Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually areas of ponding); Base Flood Elevations
determined.
ZONE AO Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually sheet flow on sloping terrain); average
depths determined. For areas of alluvial fan flooding, velocities also
determined.
ZONE AR Special Flood Hazard Area formerly protected from the 1% annual chance
flood by a flood control system that was subsequently decertified. Zone AR
indicates that the former flood control system is ging restored to provide
protection from the 1% annual chance or greater flood.
ZONE A99 Areas to be protected from 1% annual chance flood by a Federal flood
protection system under construction; no Base Flood Elevations determined.
ZONE VE Coastal flood zone with velocity hazard (wave action); Base Flood Elevations
determined.
FLOODWAY AREAS IN ZONE AE
The floodway is the channel of a stream plus any adjacent floodplain areas that must be kept
free of encroachment so that the 1% annual chance flood can be carried without substantial
increases in flood heights.
OTHER FLOOD AREAS
ZONE X Areas of 0.2% annual chance flood; areas of 1% annual chance flood with
average depths of less than 1 foot or with drainage areas less than 1 square
mile; and areas protected by levees from 1% annual chance flood.
OTHER AREAS
ZONE X Areas determined to be outside the 0.2% annual chance floodplain.
ZONE D Areas in which flood hazards are undetermined, but possible.

DATUM INFORMATION
The projection used in the preparation of this map was the North Carolina
State Plane (FIPSZONE 3200). The horizontal datum was the North American
Datum of 1983, GRS80 ellipsoid. Differences in datum, ellipsoid, projection, or
Universal Transverse Mercator zones used in the production of FIRMS for adjacent
jurisdictions may result in slight positional differences in map features across
jurisdictional boundaries. These differences do not affect the accuracy of this
FIRM. All coordinates on this map are in U.S. Survey Feet, where
1 U.S. Survey Foot = 1200/3937 Meters.
Flood elevations on this map are referenced to the North American Vertical
Datum of 1988 (NAVD 88). These flood elevations must be compared to structure
and ground elevations referenced to the same vertical datum. An average
offset between NAVD 88 and the National Geodetic Vertical Datum of 1929
(NGVD 29) has been computed for each North Carolina county. This offset was
then applied to the NGVD 29 flood elevations that were not revised during the
creation of this statewide format FIRM. The offsets for each county shown on
this FIRM panel are shown in the vertical datum offset table below. Where a
county boundary and a flooding source with unrevised NGVD 29 flood elevations
are coincident, an individual offset has been calculated and applied during the
creation of this statewide format FIRM. See Section 6.1 of the accompanying
Flood Insurance Study report to obtain further information on the conversion
of elevations between NAVD 88 and NGVD 29. To obtain current elevation,
description, and/or location information for bench marks shown on this map,
please contact the North Carolina Geodetic Survey at the address shown below.

This digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) was produced through a unique
cooperative partnership between the State of North Carolina and the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The State of North Carolina has
implemented a long term approach of floodplain management to decrease
the costs associated with flooding. This is demonstrated by the State's com-
mitment to map floodplain areas at the local level. As a part of this effort, the
State of North Carolina has joined in a Cooperating Technical State agreement
with FEMA to produce and maintain this digital FIRM.

This map is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance Program. It does not
necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding, particularly from local drainage sources
of small size. The community map repository should be consulted for possible updated
or additional flood hazard information.
To obtain more detailed information in areas where Base Flood Elevations (BFEs)
and/or floodways have been determined, users are encouraged to consult the Flood
Profiles, Floodway Data and/or Summary of Stillwater Elevations tables contained within
the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report that accompanies this FIRM. Users should be
aware that BFEs shown on the FIRM represent rounded whole -foot elevations. These
BFEs are intended for flood insurance rating purposes only and should not be used
as the sole source of flood elevation information. Accordingly, flood elevation data
presented in the AS report should be utilized in conjunction with the FIRM for purposes
of construction and/or floodplain management.
Boundaries of the floodways were computed at cross sections and interpolated between
cross sections. The floodways were based on hydraulic considerations with regard to
requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program. Floodway widths and other
pertinent floodway data are provided in the Flood Insurance Study report for the jurisdictions.

This digital Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) was produced through a unique
cooperative partnership between the State of North Carolina and the Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). The State of North Carolina has
implemented a long term approach of floodplain management to decrease
the costs associated with flooding. This is demonstrated by the State's com-
mitment to map floodplain areas at the local level. As a part of this effort, the
State of North Carolina has joined in a Cooperating Technical State agreement
with FEMA to produce and maintain this digital FIRM.

This map is for use in administering the National Flood Insurance Program. It does not
necessarily identify all areas subject to flooding, particularly from local drainage sources
of small size. The community map repository should be consulted for possible updated
or additional flood hazard information.
To obtain more detailed information in areas where Base Flood Elevations (BFEs)
and/or floodways have been determined, users are encouraged to consult the Flood
Profiles, Floodway Data and/or Summary of Stillwater Elevations tables contained within
the Flood Insurance Study (FIS) report that accompanies this FIRM. Users should be
aware that BFEs shown on the FIRM represent rounded whole -foot elevations. These
BFEs are intended for flood insurance rating purposes only and should not be used
as the sole source of flood elevation information. Accordingly, flood elevation data
presented in the AS report should be utilized in conjunction with the FIRM for purposes
of construction and/or floodplain management.
Boundaries of the floodways were computed at cross sections and interpolated between
cross sections. The floodways were based on hydraulic considerations with regard to
requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program. Floodway widths and other
pertinent floodway data are provided in the Flood Insurance Study report for the jurisdictions.

SPECIAL FLOOD HAZARD AREAS (SFHAs) SUBJECT TO
INUNDATION BY THE 1 % ANNUAL CHANCE FLOOD
The 1 % annual chance flood (100 -year flood), also known as the base flood, is the flood
that has a 11% chance of being equaled or exceeded in any given year. The Special
Flood Hazard Area is the area subject to flooding by the 1% annual chance flood. Areas
of Special Flood Hazard include Zones A, AE, AH, AO, AR, A99, V, and VE. The Base
Flood Elevation is the water -surface elevation of the 1% annual chance flood.
ZONE A No Base Flood Elevations determined.
ZONE AE Base Flood Elevations determined.
ZONE AH Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually areas of ponding); Base Flood
Elevations determined.
ZONE AO Flood depths of 1 to 3 feet (usually sheet flow on sloping terrain),
average depths determined. For areas of alluvial fan flooding, velocities
also determined.
ZONE AR Special Flood Hazard Area formerly protected from the 1% annual
chance flood by a flood control system that was subsequently
decertified. Zone AR indicates that the former flood control system is
being restored to provide protection from the 1% annual chance or
greater flood.
ZONE A99 Area to be protected from 1 % annual chance flood by a Federal
flood protection system under construction; no Base Flood Elevations
determined.
ZONE VE Coastal flood zone with velocity hazard (wave action); Base Flood Elevations
determined.
FLOODWAY AREAS IN ZONE AE
The floodway is the channel of a stream plus any ad)'acent floodplain areas that must be
kept free of encroachment so that the 19. annual chance flood can be carried without
substantial increases in flood heights.

DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY
CORPS OF ENGINEERS
FINAL NOTICE OF ISSUANCE AND MODIFICATION OF NATIONWIDE PERMITS
FEDERAL REGISTER
AUTHORIZED MARCH 19, 2012

Bank Stabilization. Bank stabilization activities necessary for erosion prevention,
provided the activity meets all of the following criteria:
(a) No material is placed in excess of the minimum needed for erosion protection;
(b) The activity is no more than 500 feet in length along the bank, unless the district
engineer waives this criterion by making a written determination concluding that the discharge
will result in minimal adverse effects;
(c) The activity will not exceed an average of one cubic yard per running foot placed
along the bank below the plane of the ordinary high water mark or the high tide line, unless the
district engineer waives this criterion by making a written determination concluding that the
discharge will result in minimal adverse effects;
(d) The activity does not involve discharges of dredged or fill material into special
aquatic sites, unless the district engineer waives this criterion by making a written determination
concluding that the discharge will result in minimal adverse effects;
(e) No material is of a type, or is placed in any location, or in any manner, that will impair
surface water flow into or out of any waters of the United States;
(f) No material is placed in a manner that will be eroded by normal or expected high
flows (properly anchored trees and treetops may be used in low energy areas); and,
(g) The activity is not a stream channelization activity.
This NWP also authorizes temporary structures, fills, and work necessary to construct the
bank stabilization activity. Appropriate measures must be taken to maintain normal downstream
flows and minimize flooding to the maximum extent practicable, when temporary structures,
work, and discharges, including cofferdams, are necessary for construction activities, access fills,
or dewatering of construction sites. Temporary fills must consist of materials, and be placed in a
manner, that will not be eroded by expected high flows. Temporary fills must be removed in
their entirety and the affected areas returned to pre-construction elevations. The areas affected by
temporary fills must be revegetated, as appropriate.
Invasive plant species shall not be used for bioengineering or vegetative bank
stabilization.
Notification: The permittee must submit a pre-construction notification to the district
engineer prior to commencing the activity if the bank stabilization activity: (1) involves
discharges into special aquatic sites; or (2) is in excess of 500 feet in length; or (3) will involve
the discharge of greater than an average of one cubic yard per running foot along the bank below
the plane of the ordinary high water mark or the high tide line. (See general condition 31.)
(Sections 10 and 404)

NATIONWIDE PERMIT CONDITIONS

The following General Conditions must be followed in order for any authorization by a NWP to
be valid:

1. Navigation. (a) No activity may cause more than a minimal adverse effect on
navigation.
(b) Any safety lights and signals prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations
or otherwise, must be installed and maintained at the permittee's expense on authorized facilities
in navigable waters of the United States.
(c) The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or
if, in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or
work shall cause unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the
permittee will be required, upon due notice from the Corps of Engineers, to remove, relocate, or
alter the structural work or obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the United States. No
claim shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal or alteration.

2. Aquatic Life Movements. No activity may substantially disrupt the necessary life cycle
movements of those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody, including those species
that normally migrate through the area, unless the activity's primary purpose is to impound
water. All permanent and temporary crossings of waterbodies shall be suitably culverted,
bridged, or otherwise designed and constructed to maintain low flows to sustain the movement of
those aquatic species.

3. Spawning Areas. Activities in spawning areas during spawning seasons must be
avoided to the maximum extent practicable. Activities that result in the physical destruction (e.g.,
through excavation, fill, or downstream smothering by substantial turbidity) of an important
spawning area are not authorized.

4. Migratory Bird Breeding Areas. Activities in waters of the United States that serve as
breeding areas for migratory birds must be avoided to the maximum extent practicable.

5. Shellfish Beds. No activity may occur in areas of concentrated shellfish populations,
unless the activity is directly related to a shellfish harvesting activity authorized by NWPs 4 and
48, or is a shellfish seeding or habitat restoration activity authorized by NWP 27.

6. Suitable Material. No activity may use unsuitable material (e.g., trash, debris, car
bodies, asphalt, etc.). Material used for construction or discharged must be free from toxic
pollutants in toxic amounts (see Section 307 of the Clean Water Act).

7. Water Supply Intakes. No activity may occur in the proximity of a public water supply
intake, except where the activity is for the repair or improvement of public water supply intake
structures or adjacent bank stabilization.

3
8. Adverse Effects From Impoundments. If the activity creates an impoundment of water,
adverse effects to the aquatic system due to accelerating the passage of water, and/or restricting
its flow must be minimized to the maximum extent practicable.

9. Management of Water Flows. To the maximum extent practicable, the pre-construction
course, condition, capacity, and location of open waters must be maintained for each activity,
including stream channelization and storm water management activities, except as provided
below. The activity must be constructed to withstand expected high flows. The activity must not
restrict or impede the passage of normal or high flows, unless the primary purpose of the activity
is to impound water or manage high flows. The activity may alter the pre-construction course,
condition, capacity, and location of open waters if it benefits the aquatic environment (e.g.,
stream restoration or relocation activities).

10. Fills Within 100-Year Floodplains. The activity must comply with applicable FEMA-
approved state or local floodplain management requirements.

11. Equipment. Heavy equipment working in wetlands or mudflats must be placed on
mats, or other measures must be taken to minimize soil disturbance.

12. Soil Erosion and Sediment Controls. Appropriate soil erosion and sediment controls
must be used and maintained in effective operating condition during construction, and all
exposed soil and other fills, as well as any work below the ordinary high water mark or high tide
line, must be permanently stabilized at the earliest practicable date. Permittees are encouraged to
perform work within waters of the United States during periods of low-flow or no-flow.

13. Removal of Temporary Fills. Temporary fills must be removed in their entirety and
the affected areas returned to pre-construction elevations. The affected areas must be
revegetated, as appropriate.

14. Proper Maintenance. Any authorized structure or fill shall be properly maintained,
including maintenance to ensure public safety and compliance with applicable NWP general
conditions, as well as any activity-specific conditions added by the district engineer to an NWP
authorization.

15. Single and Complete Project. The activity must be a single and complete project. The
same NWP cannot be used more than once for the same single and complete project.

16. Wild and Scenic Rivers. No activity may occur in a component of the National Wild
and Scenic River System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for
possible inclusion in the system while the river is in an official study status, unless the
appropriate Federal agency with direct management responsibility for such river, has determined
in writing that the proposed activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River
designation or study status. Information on Wild and Scenic Rivers may be obtained from the
appropriate Federal land management agency responsible for the designated Wild and Scenic
River or study river (e.g., National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land
Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service).
4

17. Tribal Rights. No activity or its operation may impair reserved tribal rights, including,
but not limited to, reserved water rights and treaty fishing and hunting rights.

18. Endangered Species. (a) No activity is authorized under any NWP which is likely to
directly or indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of a threatened or endangered species or
a species proposed for such designation, as identified under the Federal Endangered Species Act
(ESA), or which will directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such
species. No activity is authorized under any NWP which “may affect” a listed species or critical
habitat, unless Section 7 consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been
completed.
(b) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the
requirements of the ESA. Federal permittees must provide the district engineer with the
appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with those requirements. The district
engineer will review the documentation and determine whether it is sufficient to address ESA
compliance for the NWP activity, or whether additional ESA consultation is necessary.
(c) Non-federal permittees must submit a pre-construction notification to the district
engineer if any listed species or designated critical habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity
of the project, or if the project is located in designated critical habitat, and shall not begin work
on the activity until notified by the district engineer that the requirements of the ESA have been
satisfied and that the activity is authorized. For activities that might affect Federally-listed
endangered or threatened species or designated critical habitat, the pre-construction notification
must include the name(s) of the endangered or threatened species that might be affected by the
proposed work or that utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the
proposed work. The district engineer will determine whether the proposed activity “may affect”
or will have “no effect” to listed species and designated critical habitat and will notify the non-
Federal applicant of the Corps’ determination within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-
construction notification. In cases where the non-Federal applicant has identified listed species or
critical habitat that might be affected or is in the vicinity of the project, and has so notified the
Corps, the applicant shall not begin work until the Corps has provided notification the proposed
activities will have “no effect” on listed species or critical habitat, or until Section 7 consultation
has been completed. If the non-Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45
days, the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps.
(d) As a result of formal or informal consultation with the FWS or NMFS the district
engineer may add species-specific regional endangered species conditions to the NWPs.
(e) Authorization of an activity by a NWP does not authorize the “take” of a threatened or
endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of separate authorization (e.g., an
ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with “incidental take” provisions, etc.) from the
U.S. FWS or the NMFS, The Endangered Species Act prohibits any person subject to the
jurisdiction of the United States to take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm,
pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such
conduct. The word “harm” in the definition of “take'' means an act which actually kills or injures
wildlife. Such an act may include significant habitat modification or degradation where it
actually kills or injures wildlife by significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns,
including breeding, feeding or sheltering.
5
(f) Information on the location of threatened and endangered species and their critical
habitat can be obtained directly from the offices of the U.S. FWS and NMFS or their world wide
web pages at http://www.fws.gov/ or http://www.fws.gov/ipac and
http://www.noaa.gov/fisheries.html respectively.

19. Migratory Birds and Bald and Golden Eagles. The permittee is responsible for
obtaining any “take” permits required under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s regulations
governing compliance with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act or the Bald and Golden Eagle
Protection Act. The permittee should contact the appropriate local office of the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service to determine if such “take” permits are required for a particular activity.

20. Historic Properties. (a) In cases where the district engineer determines that the
activity may affect properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic
Places, the activity is not authorized, until the requirements of Section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) have been satisfied.
(b) Federal permittees should follow their own procedures for complying with the
requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Federal permittees must
provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with
those requirements. The district engineer will review the documentation and determine whether
it is sufficient to address section 106 compliance for the NWP activity, or whether additional
section 106 consultation is necessary.
(c) Non-federal permittees must submit a pre-construction notification to the district
engineer if the authorized activity may have the potential to cause effects to any historic
properties listed on, determined to be eligible for listing on, or potentially eligible for listing on
the National Register of Historic Places, including previously unidentified properties. For such
activities, the pre-construction notification must state which historic properties may be affected
by the proposed work or include a vicinity map indicating the location of the historic properties
or the potential for the presence of historic properties. Assistance regarding information on the
location of or potential for the presence of historic resources can be sought from the State
Historic Preservation Officer or Tribal Historic Preservation Officer, as appropriate, and the
National Register of Historic Places (see 33 CFR 330.4(g)). When reviewing pre-construction
notifications, district engineers will comply with the current procedures for addressing the
requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The district engineer shall
make a reasonable and good faith effort to carry out appropriate identification efforts, which may
include background research, consultation, oral history interviews, sample field investigation,
and field survey. Based on the information submitted and these efforts, the district engineer shall
determine whether the proposed activity has the potential to cause an effect on the historic
properties. Where the non-Federal applicant has identified historic properties on which the
activity may have the potential to cause effects and so notified the Corps, the non-Federal
applicant shall not begin the activity until notified by the district engineer either that the activity
has no potential to cause effects or that consultation under Section 106 of the NHPA has been
completed.
(d) The district engineer will notify the prospective permittee within 45 days of receipt
of a complete pre-construction notification whether NHPA Section 106 consultation is required.
Section 106 consultation is not required when the Corps determines that the activity does not
have the potential to cause effects on historic properties (see 36 CFR §800.3(a)). If NHPA
6
section 106 consultation is required and will occur, the district engineer will notify the non-
Federal applicant that he or she cannot begin work until Section 106 consultation is completed. If
the non-Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45 days, the applicant must
still wait for notification from the Corps.
(e) Prospective permittees should be aware that section 110k of the NHPA (16 U.S.C.
470h-2(k)) prevents the Corps from granting a permit or other assistance to an applicant who,
with intent to avoid the requirements of Section 106 of the NHPA, has intentionally significantly
adversely affected a historic property to which the permit would relate, or having legal power to
prevent it, allowed such significant adverse effect to occur, unless the Corps, after consultation
with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP), determines that circumstances
justify granting such assistance despite the adverse effect created or permitted by the applicant.
If circumstances justify granting the assistance, the Corps is required to notify the ACHP and
provide documentation specifying the circumstances, the degree of damage to the integrity of
any historic properties affected, and proposed mitigation. This documentation must include any
views obtained from the applicant, SHPO/THPO, appropriate Indian tribes if the undertaking
occurs on or affects historic properties on tribal lands or affects properties of interest to those
tribes, and other parties known to have a legitimate interest in the impacts to the permitted
activity on historic properties.

21. Discovery of Previously Unknown Remains and Artifacts. If you discover any
previously unknown historic, cultural or archeological remains and artifacts while accomplishing
the activity authorized by this permit, you must immediately notify the district engineer of what
you have found, and to the maximum extent practicable, avoid construction activities that may
affect the remains and artifacts until the required coordination has been completed. The district
engineer will initiate the Federal, Tribal and state coordination required to determine if the items
or remains warrant a recovery effort or if the site is eligible for listing in the National Register of
Historic Places.

22. Designated Critical Resource Waters. Critical resource waters include, NOAA-
managed marine sanctuaries and marine monuments, and National Estuarine Research Reserves.
The district engineer may designate, after notice and opportunity for public comment, additional
waters officially designated by a state as having particular environmental or ecological
significance, such as outstanding national resource waters or state natural heritage sites. The
district engineer may also designate additional critical resource waters after notice and
opportunity for public comment.
(a) Discharges of dredged or fill material into waters of the United States are not
authorized by NWPs 7, 12, 14, 16, 17, 21, 29, 31, 35, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 49, 50, 51, and 52 for
any activity within, or directly affecting, critical resource waters, including wetlands adjacent to
such waters.
(b) For NWPs 3, 8, 10, 13, 15, 18, 19, 22, 23, 25, 27, 28, 30, 33, 34, 36, 37, and 38,
notification is required in accordance with general condition 31, for any activity proposed in the
designated critical resource waters including wetlands adjacent to those waters. The district
engineer may authorize activities under these NWPs only after it is determined that the impacts
to the critical resource waters will be no more than minimal.

7
23. Mitigation. The district engineer will consider the following factors when
determining appropriate and practicable mitigation necessary to ensure that adverse effects on
the aquatic environment are minimal:
(a) The activity must be designed and constructed to avoid and minimize adverse effects,
both temporary and permanent, to waters of the United States to the maximum extent practicable
at the project site (i.e., on site).
(b) Mitigation in all its forms (avoiding, minimizing, rectifying, reducing, or
compensating for resource losses) will be required to the extent necessary to ensure that the
adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal.
(c) Compensatory mitigation at a minimum one-for-one ratio will be required for all
wetland losses that exceed 1/10-acre and require pre-construction notification, unless the district
engineer determines in writing that either some other form of mitigation would be more
environmentally appropriate or the adverse effects of the proposed activity are minimal, and
provides a project-specific waiver of this requirement. For wetland losses of 1/10-acre or less
that require pre-construction notification, the district engineer may determine on a case-by-case
basis that compensatory mitigation is required to ensure that the activity results in minimal
adverse effects on the aquatic environment. Compensatory mitigation projects provided to offset
losses of aquatic resources must comply with the applicable provisions of 33 CFR part 332.
(1) The prospective permittee is responsible for proposing an appropriate compensatory
mitigation option if compensatory mitigation is necessary to ensure that the activity results in
minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment.
(2) Since the likelihood of success is greater and the impacts to potentially valuable
uplands are reduced, wetland restoration should be the first compensatory mitigation option
considered.
(3) If permittee-responsible mitigation is the proposed option, the prospective permittee is
responsible for submitting a mitigation plan. A conceptual or detailed mitigation plan may be
used by the district engineer to make the decision on the NWP verification request, but a final
mitigation plan that addresses the applicable requirements of 33 CFR 332.4(c)(2) – (14) must be
approved by the district engineer before the permittee begins work in waters of the United States,
unless the district engineer determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not
practicable or not necessary to ensure timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation
(see 33 CFR 332.3(k)(3)).
(4) If mitigation bank or in-lieu fee program credits are the proposed option, the
mitigation plan only needs to address the baseline conditions at the impact site and the number of
credits to be provided.
(5) Compensatory mitigation requirements (e.g., resource type and amount to be provided
as compensatory mitigation, site protection, ecological performance standards, monitoring
requirements) may be addressed through conditions added to the NWP authorization, instead of
components of a compensatory mitigation plan.
(d) For losses of streams or other open waters that require pre-construction notification,
the district engineer may require compensatory mitigation, such as stream rehabilitation,
enhancement, or preservation, to ensure that the activity results in minimal adverse effects on the
aquatic environment.
(e) Compensatory mitigation will not be used to increase the acreage losses allowed by
the acreage limits of the NWPs. For example, if an NWP has an acreage limit of 1/2-acre, it
cannot be used to authorize any project resulting in the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of waters of
8
the United States, even if compensatory mitigation is provided that replaces or restores some of
the lost waters. However, compensatory mitigation can and should be used, as necessary, to
ensure that a project already meeting the established acreage limits also satisfies the minimal
impact requirement associated with the NWPs.
(f) Compensatory mitigation plans for projects in or near streams or other open waters
will normally include a requirement for the restoration or establishment, maintenance, and legal
protection (e.g., conservation easements) of riparian areas next to open waters. In some cases,
riparian areas may be the only compensatory mitigation required. Riparian areas should consist
of native species. The width of the required riparian area will address documented water quality
or aquatic habitat loss concerns. Normally, the riparian area will be 25 to 50 feet wide on each
side of the stream, but the district engineer may require slightly wider riparian areas to address
documented water quality or habitat loss concerns. If it is not possible to establish a riparian area
on both sides of a stream, or if the waterbody is a lake or coastal waters, then restoring or
establishing a riparian area along a single bank or shoreline may be sufficient. Where both
wetlands and open waters exist on the project site, the district engineer will determine the
appropriate compensatory mitigation (e.g., riparian areas and/or wetlands compensation) based
on what is best for the aquatic environment on a watershed basis. In cases where riparian areas
are determined to be the most appropriate form of compensatory mitigation, the district engineer
may waive or reduce the requirement to provide wetland compensatory mitigation for wetland
losses.
(g) Permittees may propose the use of mitigation banks, in-lieu fee programs, or separate
permittee-responsible mitigation. For activities resulting in the loss of marine or estuarine
resources, permittee-responsible compensatory mitigation may be environmentally preferable if
there are no mitigation banks or in-lieu fee programs in the area that have marine or estuarine
credits available for sale or transfer to the permittee. For permittee-responsible mitigation, the
special conditions of the NWP verification must clearly indicate the party or parties responsible
for the implementation and performance of the compensatory mitigation project, and, if required,
its long-term management.
(h) Where certain functions and services of waters of the United States are permanently
adversely affected, such as the conversion of a forested or scrub-shrub wetland to a herbaceous
wetland in a permanently maintained utility line right-of-way, mitigation may be required to
reduce the adverse effects of the project to the minimal level.

24. Safety of Impoundment Structures. To ensure that all impoundment structures are
safely designed, the district engineer may require non-Federal applicants to demonstrate that the
structures comply with established state dam safety criteria or have been designed by qualified
persons. The district engineer may also require documentation that the design has been
independently reviewed by similarly qualified persons, and appropriate modifications made to
ensure safety.

25. Water Quality. Where States and authorized Tribes, or EPA where applicable, have
not previously certified compliance of an NWP with CWA Section 401, individual 401 Water
Quality Certification must be obtained or waived (see 33 CFR 330.4(c)). The district engineer or
State or Tribe may require additional water quality management measures to ensure that the
authorized activity does not result in more than minimal degradation of water quality.

9
26. Coastal Zone Management. In coastal states where an NWP has not previously
received a state coastal zone management consistency concurrence, an individual state coastal
zone management consistency concurrence must be obtained, or a presumption of concurrence
must occur (see 33 CFR 330.4(d)). The district engineer or a State may require additional
measures to ensure that the authorized activity is consistent with state coastal zone management
requirements.

27. Regional and Case-By-Case Conditions. The activity must comply with any regional
conditions that may have been added by the Division Engineer (see 33 CFR 330.4(e)) and with
any case specific conditions added by the Corps or by the state, Indian Tribe, or U.S. EPA in its
section 401 Water Quality Certification, or by the state in its Coastal Zone Management Act
consistency determination.

28. Use of Multiple Nationwide Permits. The use of more than one NWP for a single and
complete project is prohibited, except when the acreage loss of waters of the United States
authorized by the NWPs does not exceed the acreage limit of the NWP with the highest specified
acreage limit. For example, if a road crossing over tidal waters is constructed under NWP 14,
with associated bank stabilization authorized by NWP 13, the maximum acreage loss of waters
of the United States for the total project cannot exceed 1/3-acre.

29. Transfer of Nationwide Permit Verifications. If the permittee sells the property
associated with a nationwide permit verification, the permittee may transfer the nationwide
permit verification to the new owner by submitting a letter to the appropriate Corps district office
to validate the transfer. A copy of the nationwide permit verification must be attached to the
letter, and the letter must contain the following statement and signature:
“When the structures or work authorized by this nationwide permit are still in existence at
the time the property is transferred, the terms and conditions of this nationwide permit, including
any special conditions, will continue to be binding on the new owner(s) of the property. To
validate the transfer of this nationwide permit and the associated liabilities associated with
compliance with its terms and conditions, have the transferee sign and date below.”

_____________________________________________

(Date)

30. Compliance Certification. Each permittee who receives an NWP verification letter
from the Corps must provide a signed certification documenting completion of the authorized
activity and any required compensatory mitigation. The success of any required permittee-
responsible mitigation, including the achievement of ecological performance standards, will be
addressed separately by the district engineer. The Corps will provide the permittee the
certification document with the NWP verification letter. The certification document will
include:
10
(a) A statement that the authorized work was done in accordance with the NWP
authorization, including any general, regional, or activity-specific conditions;
(b) A statement that the implementation of any required compensatory mitigation was
completed in accordance with the permit conditions. If credits from a mitigation bank or in-lieu
fee program are used to satisfy the compensatory mitigation requirements, the certification must
include the documentation required by 33 CFR 332.3(l)(3) to confirm that the permittee secured
the appropriate number and resource type of credits; and
(c) The signature of the permittee certifying the completion of the work and mitigation.

31. Pre-Construction Notification. (a) Timing. Where required by the terms of the NWP,
the prospective permittee must notify the district engineer by submitting a pre-construction
notification (PCN) as early as possible. The district engineer must determine if the PCN is
complete within 30 calendar days of the date of receipt and, if the PCN is determined to be
incomplete, notify the prospective permittee within that 30 day period to request the additional
information necessary to make the PCN complete. The request must specify the information
needed to make the PCN complete. As a general rule, district engineers will request additional
information necessary to make the PCN complete only once. However, if the prospective
permittee does not provide all of the requested information, then the district engineer will notify
the prospective permittee that the PCN is still incomplete and the PCN review process will not
commence until all of the requested information has been received by the district engineer. The
prospective permittee shall not begin the activity until either:
(1) He or she is notified in writing by the district engineer that the activity may proceed
under the NWP with any special conditions imposed by the district or division engineer; or
(2) 45 calendar days have passed from the district engineer’s receipt of the complete PCN
and the prospective permittee has not received written notice from the district or division
engineer. However, if the permittee was required to notify the Corps pursuant to general
condition 18 that listed species or critical habitat might be affected or in the vicinity of the
project, or to notify the Corps pursuant to general condition 20 that the activity may have the
potential to cause effects to historic properties, the permittee cannot begin the activity until
receiving written notification from the Corps that there is “no effect” on listed species or “no
potential to cause effects” on historic properties, or that any consultation required under Section
7 of the Endangered Species Act (see 33 CFR 330.4(f)) and/or Section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation (see 33 CFR 330.4(g)) has been completed. Also, work cannot begin under
NWPs 21, 49, or 50 until the permittee has received written approval from the Corps. If the
proposed activity requires a written waiver to exceed specified limits of an NWP, the permittee
may not begin the activity until the district engineer issues the waiver. If the district or division
engineer notifies the permittee in writing that an individual permit is required within 45 calendar
days of receipt of a complete PCN, the permittee cannot begin the activity until an individual
permit has been obtained. Subsequently, the permittee’s right to proceed under the NWP may be
modified, suspended, or revoked only in accordance with the procedure set forth in 33 CFR
330.5(d)(2).
(b) Contents of Pre-Construction Notification: The PCN must be in writing and include
the following information:
(1) Name, address and telephone numbers of the prospective permittee;
(2) Location of the proposed project;
11
(3) A description of the proposed project; the project’s purpose; direct and indirect
adverse environmental effects the project would cause, including the anticipated amount of loss
of water of the United States expected to result from the NWP activity, in acres, linear feet, or
other appropriate unit of measure; any other NWP(s), regional general permit(s), or individual
permit(s) used or intended to be used to authorize any part of the proposed project or any related
activity. The description should be sufficiently detailed to allow the district engineer to
determine that the adverse effects of the project will be minimal and to determine the need for
compensatory mitigation. Sketches should be provided when necessary to show that the activity
complies with the terms of the NWP. (Sketches usually clarify the project and when provided
results in a quicker decision. Sketches should contain sufficient detail to provide an illustrative
description of the proposed activity (e.g., a conceptual plan), but do not need to be detailed
engineering plans);
(4) The PCN must include a delineation of wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other
waters, such as lakes and ponds, and perennial, intermittent, and ephemeral streams, on the
project site. Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the current method
required by the Corps. The permittee may ask the Corps to delineate the special aquatic sites and
other waters on the project site, but there may be a delay if the Corps does the delineation,
especially if the project site is large or contains many waters of the United States. Furthermore,
the 45 day period will not start until the delineation has been submitted to or completed by the
Corps, as appropriate;
(5) If the proposed activity will result in the loss of greater than 1/10-acre of wetlands and
a PCN is required, the prospective permittee must submit a statement describing how the
mitigation requirement will be satisfied, or explaining why the adverse effects are minimal and
why compensatory mitigation should not be required. As an alternative, the prospective
permittee may submit a conceptual or detailed mitigation plan.
(6) If any listed species or designated critical habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity
of the project, or if the project is located in designated critical habitat, for non-Federal applicants
the PCN must include the name(s) of those endangered or threatened species that might be
affected by the proposed work or utilize the designated critical habitat that may be affected by
the proposed work. Federal applicants must provide documentation demonstrating compliance
with the Endangered Species Act; and
(7) For an activity that may affect a historic property listed on, determined to be eligible
for listing on, or potentially eligible for listing on, the National Register of Historic Places, for
non-Federal applicants the PCN must state which historic property may be affected by the
proposed work or include a vicinity map indicating the location of the historic property. Federal
applicants must provide documentation demonstrating compliance with Section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act.
(c) Form of Pre-Construction Notification: The standard individual permit application
form (Form ENG 4345) may be used, but the completed application form must clearly indicate
that it is a PCN and must include all of the information required in paragraphs (b)(1) through (7)
of this general condition. A letter containing the required information may also be used.
(d) Agency Coordination: (1) The district engineer will consider any comments from
Federal and state agencies concerning the proposed activity’s compliance with the terms and
conditions of the NWPs and the need for mitigation to reduce the project’s adverse
environmental effects to a minimal level.
12
(2) For all NWP activities that require pre-construction notification and result in the loss
of greater than 1/2-acre of waters of the United States, for NWP 21, 29, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50,
51, and 52 activities that require pre-construction notification and will result in the loss of greater
than 300 linear feet of intermittent and ephemeral stream bed, and for all NWP 48 activities that
require pre-construction notification, the district engineer will immediately provide (e.g., via e-
mail, facsimile transmission, overnight mail, or other expeditious manner) a copy of the
complete PCN to the appropriate Federal or state offices (U.S. FWS, state natural resource or
water quality agency, EPA, State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) or Tribal Historic
Preservation Office (THPO), and, if appropriate, the NMFS). With the exception of NWP 37,
these agencies will have 10 calendar days from the date the material is transmitted to telephone
or fax the district engineer notice that they intend to provide substantive, site-specific comments.
The comments must explain why the agency believes the adverse effects will be more than
minimal. If so contacted by an agency, the district engineer will wait an additional 15 calendar
days before making a decision on the pre-construction notification. The district engineer will
fully consider agency comments received within the specified time frame concerning the
proposed activity’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the NWPs, including the need
for mitigation to ensure the net adverse environmental effects to the aquatic environment of the
proposed activity are minimal. The district engineer will provide no response to the resource
agency, except as provided below. The district engineer will indicate in the administrative record
associated with each pre-construction notification that the resource agencies’ concerns were
considered. For NWP 37, the emergency watershed protection and rehabilitation activity may
proceed immediately in cases where there is an unacceptable hazard to life or a significant loss of
property or economic hardship will occur. The district engineer will consider any comments
received to decide whether the NWP 37 authorization should be modified, suspended, or revoked
in accordance with the procedures at 33 CFR 330.5.
(3) In cases of where the prospective permittee is not a Federal agency, the district
engineer will provide a response to NMFS within 30 calendar days of receipt of any Essential
Fish Habitat conservation recommendations, as required by Section 305(b)(4)(B) of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act.
(4) Applicants are encouraged to provide the Corps with either electronic files or multiple
copies of pre-construction notifications to expedite agency coordination.

D. District Engineer’s Decision

1. In reviewing the PCN for the proposed activity, the district engineer will determine
whether the activity authorized by the NWP will result in more than minimal individual or
cumulative adverse environmental effects or may be contrary to the public interest. For a linear
project, this determination will include an evaluation of the individual crossings to determine
whether they individually satisfy the terms and conditions of the NWP(s), as well as the
cumulative effects caused by all of the crossings authorized by NWP. If an applicant requests a
waiver of the 300 linear foot limit on impacts to intermittent or ephemeral streams or of an
otherwise applicable limit, as provided for in NWPs 13, 21, 29, 36, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51 or
52, the district engineer will only grant the waiver upon a written determination that the NWP
activity will result in minimal adverse effects. When making minimal effects determinations the
district engineer will consider the direct and indirect effects caused by the NWP activity. The
district engineer will also consider site specific factors, such as the environmental setting in the
13
vicinity of the NWP activity, the type of resource that will be affected by the NWP activity, the
functions provided by the aquatic resources that will be affected by the NWP activity, the degree
or magnitude to which the aquatic resources perform those functions, the extent that aquatic
resource functions will be lost as a result of the NWP activity (e.g., partial or complete loss), the
duration of the adverse effects (temporary or permanent), the importance of the aquatic resource
functions to the region (e.g., watershed or ecoregion), and mitigation required by the district
engineer. If an appropriate functional assessment method is available and practicable to use, that
assessment method may be used by the district engineer to assist in the minimal adverse effects
determination. The district engineer may add case-specific special conditions to the NWP
authorization to address site-specific environmental concerns.

2. If the proposed activity requires a PCN and will result in a loss of greater than 1/10-
acre of wetlands, the prospective permittee should submit a mitigation proposal with the PCN.
Applicants may also propose compensatory mitigation for projects with smaller impacts. The
district engineer will consider any proposed compensatory mitigation the applicant has included
in the proposal in determining whether the net adverse environmental effects to the aquatic
environment of the proposed activity are minimal. The compensatory mitigation proposal may be
either conceptual or detailed. If the district engineer determines that the activity complies with
the terms and conditions of the NWP and that the adverse effects on the aquatic environment are
minimal, after considering mitigation, the district engineer will notify the permittee and include
any activity-specific conditions in the NWP verification the district engineer deems necessary.
Conditions for compensatory mitigation requirements must comply with the appropriate
provisions at 33 CFR 332.3(k). The district engineer must approve the final mitigation plan
before the permittee commences work in waters of the United States, unless the district engineer
determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to
ensure timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation. If the prospective permittee
elects to submit a compensatory mitigation plan with the PCN, the district engineer will
expeditiously review the proposed compensatory mitigation plan. The district engineer must
review the proposed compensatory mitigation plan within 45 calendar days of receiving a
complete PCN and determine whether the proposed mitigation would ensure no more than
minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment. If the net adverse effects of the project on
the aquatic environment (after consideration of the compensatory mitigation proposal) are
determined by the district engineer to be minimal, the district engineer will provide a timely
written response to the applicant. The response will state that the project can proceed under the
terms and conditions of the NWP, including any activity-specific conditions added to the NWP
authorization by the district engineer.

3. If the district engineer determines that the adverse effects of the proposed work are
more than minimal, then the district engineer will notify the applicant either: (a) That the project
does not qualify for authorization under the NWP and instruct the applicant on the procedures to
seek authorization under an individual permit; (b) that the project is authorized under the NWP
subject to the applicant’s submission of a mitigation plan that would reduce the adverse effects
on the aquatic environment to the minimal level; or (c) that the project is authorized under the
NWP with specific modifications or conditions. Where the district engineer determines that
mitigation is required to ensure no more than minimal adverse effects occur to the aquatic
environment, the activity will be authorized within the 45-day PCN period, with activity-specific
14
conditions that state the mitigation requirements. The authorization will include the necessary
conceptual or detailed mitigation or a requirement that the applicant submit a mitigation plan that
would reduce the adverse effects on the aquatic environment to the minimal level. When
mitigation is required, no work in waters of the United States may occur until the district
engineer has approved a specific mitigation plan or has determined that prior approval of a final
mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to ensure timely completion of the required
compensatory mitigation.

FURTHER INFORMATION

1. District Engineers have authority to determine if an activity complies with the terms
and conditions of an NWP.
2. NWPs do not obviate the need to obtain other federal, state, or local permits,
approvals, or authorizations required by law.
3. NWPs do not grant any property rights or exclusive privileges.
4. NWPs do not authorize any injury to the property or rights of others.
5. NWPs do not authorize interference with any existing or proposed Federal project.

DEFINITIONS

Best management practices (BMPs): Policies, practices, procedures, or structures
implemented to mitigate the adverse environmental effects on surface water quality resulting
from development. BMPs are categorized as structural or non-structural.
Compensatory mitigation: The restoration (re-establishment or rehabilitation),
establishment (creation), enhancement, and/or in certain circumstances preservation of aquatic
resources for the purposes of offsetting unavoidable adverse impacts which remain after all
appropriate and practicable avoidance and minimization has been achieved.
Currently serviceable: Useable as is or with some maintenance, but not so degraded as to
essentially require reconstruction.
Direct effects: Effects that are caused by the activity and occur at the same time and
place.
Discharge: The term “discharge” means any discharge of dredged or fill material.
Enhancement: The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics of
an aquatic resource to heighten, intensify, or improve a specific aquatic resource function(s).
Enhancement results in the gain of selected aquatic resource function(s), but may also lead to a
decline in other aquatic resource function(s). Enhancement does not result in a gain in aquatic
resource area.
Ephemeral stream: An ephemeral stream has flowing water only during, and for a short
duration after, precipitation events in a typical year. Ephemeral stream beds are located above the
water table year-round. Groundwater is not a source of water for the stream. Runoff from rainfall
is the primary source of water for stream flow.
Establishment (creation): The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological
characteristics present to develop an aquatic resource that did not previously exist at an upland
site. Establishment results in a gain in aquatic resource area.
High Tide Line: The line of intersection of the land with the water’s surface at the
maximum height reached by a rising tide. The high tide line may be determined, in the absence
15
of actual data, by a line of oil or scum along shore objects, a more or less continuous deposit of
fine shell or debris on the foreshore or berm, other physical markings or characteristics,
vegetation lines, tidal gages, or other suitable means that delineate the general height reached by
a rising tide. The line encompasses spring high tides and other high tides that occur with periodic
frequency but does not include storm surges in which there is a departure from the normal or
predicted reach of the tide due to the piling up of water against a coast by strong winds such as
those accompanying a hurricane or other intense storm.
Historic Property: Any prehistoric or historic district, site (including archaeological site),
building, structure, or other object included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register
of Historic Places maintained by the Secretary of the Interior. This term includes artifacts,
records, and remains that are related to and located within such properties. The term includes
properties of traditional religious and cultural importance to an Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization and that meet the National Register criteria (36 CFR part 60).
Independent utility: A test to determine what constitutes a single and complete non-linear
project in the Corps regulatory program. A project is considered to have independent utility if it
would be constructed absent the construction of other projects in the project area. Portions of a
multi-phase project that depend upon other phases of the project do not have independent utility.
Phases of a project that would be constructed even if the other phases were not built can be
considered as separate single and complete projects with independent utility.
Indirect effects: Effects that are caused by the activity and are later in time or farther
removed in distance, but are still reasonably foreseeable.
Intermittent stream: An intermittent stream has flowing water during certain times of the
year, when groundwater provides water for stream flow. During dry periods, intermittent streams
may not have flowing water. Runoff from rainfall is a supplemental source of water for stream
flow.
Loss of waters of the United States: Waters of the United States that are permanently
adversely affected by filling, flooding, excavation, or drainage because of the regulated activity.
Permanent adverse effects include permanent discharges of dredged or fill material that change
an aquatic area to dry land, increase the bottom elevation of a waterbody, or change the use of a
waterbody. The acreage of loss of waters of the United States is a threshold measurement of the
impact to jurisdictional waters for determining whether a project may qualify for an NWP; it is
not a net threshold that is calculated after considering compensatory mitigation that may be used
to offset losses of aquatic functions and services. The loss of stream bed includes the linear feet
of stream bed that is filled or excavated. Waters of the United States temporarily filled, flooded,
excavated, or drained, but restored to pre-construction contours and elevations after construction,
are not included in the measurement of loss of waters of the United States. Impacts resulting
from activities eligible for exemptions under Section 404(f) of the Clean Water Act are not
considered when calculating the loss of waters of the United States.
Non-tidal wetland: A non-tidal wetland is a wetland that is not subject to the ebb and
flow of tidal waters. The definition of a wetland can be found at 33 CFR 328.3(b). Non-tidal
wetlands contiguous to tidal waters are located landward of the high tide line (i.e., spring high
tide line).
Open water: For purposes of the NWPs, an open water is any area that in a year with
normal patterns of precipitation has water flowing or standing above ground to the extent that an
ordinary high water mark can be determined. Aquatic vegetation within the area of standing or
16
flowing water is either non-emergent, sparse, or absent. Vegetated shallows are considered to be
open waters. Examples of “open waters” include rivers, streams, lakes, and ponds.
Ordinary High Water Mark: An ordinary high water mark is a line on the shore
established by the fluctuations of water and indicated by physical characteristics, or by other
appropriate means that consider the characteristics of the surrounding areas (see 33 CFR
328.3(e)).
Perennial stream: A perennial stream has flowing water year-round during a typical year.
The water table is located above the stream bed for most of the year. Groundwater is the primary
source of water for stream flow. Runoff from rainfall is a supplemental source of water for
stream flow.
Practicable: Available and capable of being done after taking into consideration cost,
existing technology, and logistics in light of overall project purposes.
Pre-construction notification: A request submitted by the project proponent to the Corps
for confirmation that a particular activity is authorized by nationwide permit. The request may be
a permit application, letter, or similar document that includes information about the proposed
work and its anticipated environmental effects. Pre-construction notification may be required by
the terms and conditions of a nationwide permit, or by regional conditions. A pre-construction
notification may be voluntarily submitted in cases where pre-construction notification is not
required and the project proponent wants confirmation that the activity is authorized by
nationwide permit.
Preservation: The removal of a threat to, or preventing the decline of, aquatic resources
by an action in or near those aquatic resources. This term includes activities commonly
associated with the protection and maintenance of aquatic resources through the implementation
of appropriate legal and physical mechanisms. Preservation does not result in a gain of aquatic
resource area or functions.
Re-establishment: The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological
characteristics of a site with the goal of returning natural/historic functions to a former aquatic
resource. Re-establishment results in rebuilding a former aquatic resource and results in a gain in
aquatic resource area and functions.
Rehabilitation: The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics
of a site with the goal of repairing natural/historic functions to a degraded aquatic resource.
Rehabilitation results in a gain in aquatic resource function, but does not result in a gain in
aquatic resource area.
Restoration: The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics of a
site with the goal of returning natural/historic functions to a former or degraded aquatic resource.
For the purpose of tracking net gains in aquatic resource area, restoration is divided into two
categories: re-establishment and rehabilitation.
Riffle and pool complex: Riffle and pool complexes are special aquatic sites under the
404(b)(1) Guidelines. Riffle and pool complexes sometimes characterize steep gradient sections
of streams. Such stream sections are recognizable by their hydraulic characteristics. The rapid
movement of water over a course substrate in riffles results in a rough flow, a turbulent surface,
and high dissolved oxygen levels in the water. Pools are deeper areas associated with riffles. A
slower stream velocity, a streaming flow, a smooth surface, and a finer substrate characterize
pools.
Riparian areas: Riparian areas are lands adjacent to streams, lakes, and estuarine-marine
shorelines. Riparian areas are transitional between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, through
17
which surface and subsurface hydrology connects riverine, lacustrine, estuarine, and marine
waters with their adjacent wetlands, non-wetland waters, or uplands. Riparian areas provide a
variety of ecological functions and services and help improve or maintain local water quality.
(See general condition 23.)
Shellfish seeding: The placement of shellfish seed and/or suitable substrate to increase
shellfish production. Shellfish seed consists of immature individual shellfish or individual
shellfish attached to shells or shell fragments (i.e., spat on shell). Suitable substrate may consist
of shellfish shells, shell fragments, or other appropriate materials placed into waters for shellfish
habitat.
Single and complete linear project: A linear project is a project constructed for the
purpose of getting people, goods, or services from a point of origin to a terminal point, which
often involves multiple crossings of one or more waterbodies at separate and distant locations.
The term “single and complete project” is defined as that portion of the total linear project
proposed or accomplished by one owner/developer or partnership or other association of
owners/developers that includes all crossings of a single water of the United States (i.e., a single
waterbody) at a specific location. For linear projects crossing a single or multiple waterbodies
several times at separate and distant locations, each crossing is considered a single and complete
project for purposes of NWP authorization. However, individual channels in a braided stream or
river, or individual arms of a large, irregularly shaped wetland or lake, etc., are not separate
waterbodies, and crossings of such features cannot be considered separately.
Single and complete non-linear project: For non-linear projects, the term “single and
complete project” is defined at 33 CFR 330.2(i) as the total project proposed or accomplished by
one owner/developer or partnership or other association of owners/developers. A single and
complete non-linear project must have independent utility (see definition of “independent
utility”). Single and complete non-linear projects may not be “piecemealed” to avoid the limits
in an NWP authorization.
Stormwater management: Stormwater management is the mechanism for controlling
stormwater runoff for the purposes of reducing downstream erosion, water quality degradation,
and flooding and mitigating the adverse effects of changes in land use on the aquatic
environment.
Stormwater management facilities: Stormwater management facilities are those facilities,
including but not limited to, stormwater retention and detention ponds and best management
practices, which retain water for a period of time to control runoff and/or improve the quality
(i.e., by reducing the concentration of nutrients, sediments, hazardous substances and other
pollutants) of stormwater runoff.
Stream bed: The substrate of the stream channel between the ordinary high water marks.
The substrate may be bedrock or inorganic particles that range in size from clay to boulders.
Wetlands contiguous to the stream bed, but outside of the ordinary high water marks, are not
considered part of the stream bed.
Stream channelization: The manipulation of a stream’s course, condition, capacity, or
location that causes more than minimal interruption of normal stream processes. A channelized
stream remains a water of the United States.
Structure: An object that is arranged in a definite pattern of organization. Examples of
structures include, without limitation, any pier, boat dock, boat ramp, wharf, dolphin, weir,
boom, breakwater, bulkhead, revetment, riprap, jetty, artificial island, artificial reef, permanent
18
mooring structure, power transmission line, permanently moored floating vessel, piling, aid to
navigation, or any other manmade obstacle or obstruction.
Tidal wetland: A tidal wetland is a wetland (i.e., water of the United States) that is
inundated by tidal waters. The definitions of a wetland and tidal waters can be found at 33 CFR
328.3(b) and 33 CFR 328.3(f), respectively. Tidal waters rise and fall in a predictable and
measurable rhythm or cycle due to the gravitational pulls of the moon and sun. Tidal waters end
where the rise and fall of the water surface can no longer be practically measured in a predictable
rhythm due to masking by other waters, wind, or other effects. Tidal wetlands are located
channelward of the high tide line, which is defined at 33 CFR 328.3(d).
Vegetated shallows: Vegetated shallows are special aquatic sites under the 404(b)(1)
Guidelines. They are areas that are permanently inundated and under normal circumstances have
rooted aquatic vegetation, such as seagrasses in marine and estuarine systems and a variety of
vascular rooted plants in freshwater systems.
Waterbody: For purposes of the NWPs, a waterbody is a jurisdictional water of the
United States. If a jurisdictional wetland is adjacent – meaning bordering, contiguous, or
neighboring – to a waterbody determined to be a water of the United States under 33 CFR
328.3(a)(1)-(6), that waterbody and its adjacent wetlands are considered together as a single
aquatic unit (see 33 CFR 328.4(c)(2)). Examples of “waterbodies” include streams, rivers, lakes,
ponds, and wetlands.

3.0 List of Corps Regional Conditions for All Nationwide Permits

The following conditions apply to all Nationwide Permits in the Wilmington District:

3.1 Limitation of Loss of Perennial Stream Bed

NWPs may not be used for activities that may result in the loss or degradation of greater than
300 total linear feet of perennial, intermittent or ephemeral stream, unless the District
Commander has waived the 300 linear foot limit for ephemeral and intermittent streams on a
case-by-case basis and he determines that the proposed activity will result in minimal individual
and cumulative adverse impacts to the aquatic environment. Loss of stream includes the linear
feet of stream bed that is filled, excavated, or flooded by the proposed activity. Waivers for the
loss of ephemeral and intermittent streams must be in writing and documented by
appropriate/accepted stream quality assessments*. This waiver only applies to the 300 linear feet
threshold for NWPs.

*NOTE: Applicants should utilize the most current methodology prescribed by Wilmington
District to assess stream function and quality. Information can be found at:

http://www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands/permits/nwp/nwp2012 (see “Quick Links”)

23

3.2 Mitigation for Loss of Stream Bed

For any NWP that results in a loss of more than 150 linear feet of perennial and/or
ephemeral/intermittent stream, the applicant shall provide a mitigation proposal to compensate
for more than minimal individual and cumulative adverse impacts to the aquatic environment.
For stream losses less than 150 linear feet, that require a PCN, the District Commander may
determine, on a case-by-case basis that compensatory mitigation is required to ensure that the
activity results in minimal adverse effect on the aquatic environment.

3.3 Pre-construction Notification for Loss of Streambed Exceeding 150 Feet.

Prior to use of any NWP for any activity which impacts more than 150 total linear feet of
perennial stream or ephemeral/ intermittent stream, the applicant must comply with Nationwide
Permit General Condition 31 (PCN). This applies to NWPs that do not have specific notification
requirements. If a NWP has specific notification requirements, the requirements of the NWP
should be followed.

3.4 Restriction on Use of Live Concrete

For all NWPs which allow the use of concrete as a building material, live or fresh concrete,
including bags of uncured concrete, may not come into contact with the water in or entering into
waters of the US. Water inside coffer dams or casings that has been in contact with wet concrete
shall only be returned to waters of the US when it is no longer poses a threat to aquatic
organisms.

3.5 Requirements for Using Riprap for Bank Stabilization

For all NWPs that allow for the use of riprap material for bank stabilization, the following
measures shall be applied:

3.5.1. Filter cloth must be placed underneath the riprap as an additional requirement of its use in
North Carolina waters.

3.5.2. The placement of riprap shall be limited to the areas depicted on submitted work plan
drawings.

3.5.3. The riprap material shall be clean and free from loose dirt or any pollutant except in trace
quantities that would not have an adverse environmental effect.

3.5.4. It shall be of a size sufficient to prevent its movement from the authorized alignment by
natural forces under normal conditions.

3.5.5. The riprap material shall consist of clean rock or masonry material such as, but not limited
to, granite, marl, or broken concrete.

24
3.5.6. A waiver from the specifications in this Regional Condition may be requested in writing.
The waiver will only be issued if it can be demonstrated that the impacts of complying with this
Regional condition would result in greater adverse impacts to the aquatic environment.

3.6 Safe Passage Requirements for Culvert Placement

For all NWPs that involve the construction/installation of culverts, measures will be included in
the construction/installation that will promote the safe passage of fish and other aquatic
organisms. The dimension, pattern, and profile of the stream above and below a pipe or culvert
should not be modified by widening the stream channel or by reducing the depth of the stream in
connection with the construction activity. The width, height, and gradient of a proposed culvert
should be such as to pass the average historical low flow and spring flow without adversely
altering flow velocity. Spring flow should be determined from gage data, if available. In the
absence of such data, bankfull flow can be used as a comparable level.

In the twenty (20) counties of North Carolina designated as coastal counties by the Coastal Area
Management Act (CAMA): All pipes/culverts must be sufficiently sized to allow for the burial of
the bottom of the pipe/culvert at least one foot below normal bed elevation when they are placed
within the Public Trust Area of Environmental Concern (AEC) and/or the Estuarine Waters AEC
as designated by CAMA, and/or all streams appearing as blue lines on United States Geological
Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute quadrangle maps.

In all other counties: Culverts greater than 48 inches in diameter will be buried at least one foot
below the bed of the stream. Culverts 48 inches in diameter or less shall be buried or placed on
the stream bed as practicable and appropriate to maintain aquatic passage, and every effort shall
be made to maintain the existing channel slope. The bottom of the culvert must be placed at a
25
depth below the natural stream bottom to provide for passage during drought or low flow
conditions.

Culverts are to be designed and constructed in a manner that minimizes destabilization and head
cutting. Destabilizing the channel and head cutting upstream should be considered and
appropriate actions incorporated in the design and placement of the culvert.

A waiver from the depth specifications in this condition may be requested in writing. The waiver
will be issued if it can be demonstrated that the proposal would result in the least impacts to the
aquatic environment.

All counties: Culverts placed within riparian and/or riverine wetlands must be installed in a
manner that does not restrict the flow and circulation patterns of waters of the United States.
Culverts placed across wetland fills purely for the purposes of equalizing surface water do not
have to be buried.

3.7 Notification to NCDENR Shellfish Sanitation Section

Applicants shall notify the NCDENR Shellfish Sanitation Section prior to dredging in or
removing sediment from an area closed to shell fishing where the effluent may be released to an
area open for shell fishing or swimming in order to avoid contamination from the disposal area
and cause a temporary shellfish closure to be made. Such notification shall also be provided to
the appropriate Corps of Engineers Regulatory Field Office. Any disposal of sand to the ocean
beach should occur between November 1 and April 30 when recreational usage is low. Only
clean sand should be used and no dredged sand from closed shell fishing areas may be used. If
beach disposal were to occur at times other than stated above or if sand from a closed shell
fishing area is to be used, a swimming advisory shall be posted, and a press release shall be
issued by the permittee.

3.8 Preservation of Submerged Aquatic Vegetation

Adverse impacts to Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) are not authorized by any NWP
within any of the twenty coastal counties defined by North Carolina’s Coastal Area Management
Act of 1974 (CAMA).

3.9 Sedimentation and Erosion Control Structures and Measures

3.9.1. All PCNs will identify and describe sedimentation and erosion control structures and
measures proposed for placement in waters of the US. The structures and measures should be
depicted on maps, surveys or drawings showing location and impacts to jurisdictional wetlands
and streams.

26

4.0 Additional Regional Conditions for Specific Nationwide Permits

4.1 NWP # 13 – Bank Stabilization

4.1.1. Unanchored trees, treetops, or debris may not be used as stream bank stabilization
material.

4.1.2. Properly anchored and cabled structural stabilization techniques, such as timber crib
structures, revetments, and root wads, are acceptable materials to stabilize stream banks.

4.1.3. If riprap stabilization is needed, it should be placed only on the stream banks, or, if it is
necessary to be placed in the stream bed, the finished top elevation of the riprap should not
exceed that of the original stream bed.

NATIONWIDE PERMIT 40
DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY
CORPS OF ENGINEERS
FINAL NOTICE OF ISSUANCE AND MODIFICATION OF NATIONWIDE PERMITS
FEDERAL REGISTER
AUTHORIZED MARCH 19, 2012

Agricultural Activities. Discharges of dredged or fill material into non-tidal waters of
the United States for agricultural activities, including the construction of building pads for farm
buildings. Authorized activities include the installation, placement, or construction of drainage
tiles, ditches, or levees; mechanized land clearing; land leveling; the relocation of existing
serviceable drainage ditches constructed in waters of the United States; and similar activities.
This NWP also authorizes the construction of farm ponds in non-tidal waters of the
United States, excluding perennial streams, provided the farm pond is used solely for agricultural
purposes. This NWP does not authorize the construction of aquaculture ponds.
This NWP also authorizes discharges of dredged or fill material into non-tidal waters of
the United States to relocate existing serviceable drainage ditches constructed in non-tidal
streams.
The discharge must not cause the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of non-tidal waters of the
United States, including the loss of no more than 300 linear feet of stream bed, unless for
intermittent and ephemeral stream beds the district engineer waives the 300 linear foot limit by
making a written determination concluding that the discharge will result in minimal adverse
effects. This NWP does not authorize discharges into non-tidal wetlands adjacent to tidal waters.
Notification: The permittee must submit a pre-construction notification to the district
engineer prior to commencing the activity. (See general condition 31.) (Section 404)
Note: Some discharges for agricultural activities may qualify for an exemption under
Section 404(f) of the Clean Water Act (see 33 CFR 323.4). This NWP authorizes the
construction of farm ponds that do not qualify for the Clean Water Act Section 404(f)(1)(C)
exemption because of the recapture provision at Section 404(f)(2).

2
NATIONWIDE PERMIT CONDITIONS

The following General Conditions must be followed in order for any authorization by a NWP to
be valid:

1. Navigation. (a) No activity may cause more than a minimal adverse effect on
navigation.
(b) Any safety lights and signals prescribed by the U.S. Coast Guard, through regulations
or otherwise, must be installed and maintained at the permittee's expense on authorized facilities
in navigable waters of the United States.
(c) The permittee understands and agrees that, if future operations by the United States
require the removal, relocation, or other alteration, of the structure or work herein authorized, or
if, in the opinion of the Secretary of the Army or his authorized representative, said structure or
work shall cause unreasonable obstruction to the free navigation of the navigable waters, the
permittee will be required, upon due notice from the Corps of Engineers, to remove, relocate, or
alter the structural work or obstructions caused thereby, without expense to the United States. No
claim shall be made against the United States on account of any such removal or alteration.

2. Aquatic Life Movements. No activity may substantially disrupt the necessary life cycle
movements of those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody, including those species
that normally migrate through the area, unless the activity's primary purpose is to impound
water. All permanent and temporary crossings of waterbodies shall be suitably culverted,
bridged, or otherwise designed and constructed to maintain low flows to sustain the movement of
those aquatic species.

3. Spawning Areas. Activities in spawning areas during spawning seasons must be
avoided to the maximum extent practicable. Activities that result in the physical destruction (e.g.,
through excavation, fill, or downstream smothering by substantial turbidity) of an important
spawning area are not authorized.

4. Migratory Bird Breeding Areas. Activities in waters of the United States that serve as
breeding areas for migratory birds must be avoided to the maximum extent practicable.

5. Shellfish Beds. No activity may occur in areas of concentrated shellfish populations,
unless the activity is directly related to a shellfish harvesting activity authorized by NWPs 4 and
48, or is a shellfish seeding or habitat restoration activity authorized by NWP 27.

6. Suitable Material. No activity may use unsuitable material (e.g., trash, debris, car
bodies, asphalt, etc.). Material used for construction or discharged must be free from toxic
pollutants in toxic amounts (see Section 307 of the Clean Water Act).

7. Water Supply Intakes. No activity may occur in the proximity of a public water supply
intake, except where the activity is for the repair or improvement of public water supply intake
structures or adjacent bank stabilization.

3
8. Adverse Effects From Impoundments. If the activity creates an impoundment of water,
adverse effects to the aquatic system due to accelerating the passage of water, and/or restricting
its flow must be minimized to the maximum extent practicable.

9. Management of Water Flows. To the maximum extent practicable, the pre-construction
course, condition, capacity, and location of open waters must be maintained for each activity,
including stream channelization and storm water management activities, except as provided
below. The activity must be constructed to withstand expected high flows. The activity must not
restrict or impede the passage of normal or high flows, unless the primary purpose of the activity
is to impound water or manage high flows. The activity may alter the pre-construction course,
condition, capacity, and location of open waters if it benefits the aquatic environment (e.g.,
stream restoration or relocation activities).

10. Fills Within 100-Year Floodplains. The activity must comply with applicable FEMA-
approved state or local floodplain management requirements.

11. Equipment. Heavy equipment working in wetlands or mudflats must be placed on
mats, or other measures must be taken to minimize soil disturbance.

12. Soil Erosion and Sediment Controls. Appropriate soil erosion and sediment controls
must be used and maintained in effective operating condition during construction, and all
exposed soil and other fills, as well as any work below the ordinary high water mark or high tide
line, must be permanently stabilized at the earliest practicable date. Permittees are encouraged to
perform work within waters of the United States during periods of low-flow or no-flow.

13. Removal of Temporary Fills. Temporary fills must be removed in their entirety and
the affected areas returned to pre-construction elevations. The affected areas must be
revegetated, as appropriate.

14. Proper Maintenance. Any authorized structure or fill shall be properly maintained,
including maintenance to ensure public safety and compliance with applicable NWP general
conditions, as well as any activity-specific conditions added by the district engineer to an NWP
authorization.

15. Single and Complete Project. The activity must be a single and complete project. The
same NWP cannot be used more than once for the same single and complete project.

16. Wild and Scenic Rivers. No activity may occur in a component of the National Wild
and Scenic River System, or in a river officially designated by Congress as a “study river” for
possible inclusion in the system while the river is in an official study status, unless the
appropriate Federal agency with direct management responsibility for such river, has determined
in writing that the proposed activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River
designation or study status. Information on Wild and Scenic Rivers may be obtained from the
appropriate Federal land management agency responsible for the designated Wild and Scenic
River or study river (e.g., National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land
Management, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service).
4

17. Tribal Rights. No activity or its operation may impair reserved tribal rights, including,
but not limited to, reserved water rights and treaty fishing and hunting rights.

18. Endangered Species. (a) No activity is authorized under any NWP which is likely to
directly or indirectly jeopardize the continued existence of a threatened or endangered species or
a species proposed for such designation, as identified under the Federal Endangered Species Act
(ESA), or which will directly or indirectly destroy or adversely modify the critical habitat of such
species. No activity is authorized under any NWP which “may affect” a listed species or critical
habitat, unless Section 7 consultation addressing the effects of the proposed activity has been
completed.
(b) Federal agencies should follow their own procedures for complying with the
requirements of the ESA. Federal permittees must provide the district engineer with the
appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with those requirements. The district
engineer will review the documentation and determine whether it is sufficient to address ESA
compliance for the NWP activity, or whether additional ESA consultation is necessary.
(c) Non-federal permittees must submit a pre-construction notification to the district
engineer if any listed species or designated critical habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity
of the project, or if the project is located in designated critical habitat, and shall not begin work
on the activity until notified by the district engineer that the requirements of the ESA have been
satisfied and that the activity is authorized. For activities that might affect Federally-listed
endangered or threatened species or designated critical habitat, the pre-construction notification
must include the name(s) of the endangered or threatened species that might be affected by the
proposed work or that utilize the designated critical habitat that might be affected by the
proposed work. The district engineer will determine whether the proposed activity “may affect”
or will have “no effect” to listed species and designated critical habitat and will notify the non-
Federal applicant of the Corps’ determination within 45 days of receipt of a complete pre-
construction notification. In cases where the non-Federal applicant has identified listed species or
critical habitat that might be affected or is in the vicinity of the project, and has so notified the
Corps, the applicant shall not begin work until the Corps has provided notification the proposed
activities will have “no effect” on listed species or critical habitat, or until Section 7 consultation
has been completed. If the non-Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45
days, the applicant must still wait for notification from the Corps.
(d) As a result of formal or informal consultation with the FWS or NMFS the district
engineer may add species-specific regional endangered species conditions to the NWPs.
(e) Authorization of an activity by a NWP does not authorize the “take” of a threatened or
endangered species as defined under the ESA. In the absence of separate authorization (e.g., an
ESA Section 10 Permit, a Biological Opinion with “incidental take” provisions, etc.) from the
U.S. FWS or the NMFS, The Endangered Species Act prohibits any person subject to the
jurisdiction of the United States to take a listed species, where "take" means to harass, harm,
pursue, hunt, shoot, wound, kill, trap, capture, or collect, or to attempt to engage in any such
conduct. The word “harm” in the definition of “take'' means an act which actually kills or injures
wildlife. Such an act may include significant habitat modification or degradation where it
actually kills or injures wildlife by significantly impairing essential behavioral patterns,
including breeding, feeding or sheltering.
5
(f) Information on the location of threatened and endangered species and their critical
habitat can be obtained directly from the offices of the U.S. FWS and NMFS or their world wide
web pages at http://www.fws.gov/ or http://www.fws.gov/ipac and
http://www.noaa.gov/fisheries.html respectively.

19. Migratory Birds and Bald and Golden Eagles. The permittee is responsible for
obtaining any “take” permits required under the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s regulations
governing compliance with the Migratory Bird Treaty Act or the Bald and Golden Eagle
Protection Act. The permittee should contact the appropriate local office of the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service to determine if such “take” permits are required for a particular activity.

20. Historic Properties. (a) In cases where the district engineer determines that the
activity may affect properties listed, or eligible for listing, in the National Register of Historic
Places, the activity is not authorized, until the requirements of Section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation Act (NHPA) have been satisfied.
(b) Federal permittees should follow their own procedures for complying with the
requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. Federal permittees must
provide the district engineer with the appropriate documentation to demonstrate compliance with
those requirements. The district engineer will review the documentation and determine whether
it is sufficient to address section 106 compliance for the NWP activity, or whether additional
section 106 consultation is necessary.
(c) Non-federal permittees must submit a pre-construction notification to the district
engineer if the authorized activity may have the potential to cause effects to any historic
properties listed on, determined to be eligible for listing on, or potentially eligible for listing on
the National Register of Historic Places, including previously unidentified properties. For such
activities, the pre-construction notification must state which historic properties may be affected
by the proposed work or include a vicinity map indicating the location of the historic properties
or the potential for the presence of historic properties. Assistance regarding information on the
location of or potential for the presence of historic resources can be sought from the State
Historic Preservation Officer or Tribal Historic Preservation Officer, as appropriate, and the
National Register of Historic Places (see 33 CFR 330.4(g)). When reviewing pre-construction
notifications, district engineers will comply with the current procedures for addressing the
requirements of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act. The district engineer shall
make a reasonable and good faith effort to carry out appropriate identification efforts, which may
include background research, consultation, oral history interviews, sample field investigation,
and field survey. Based on the information submitted and these efforts, the district engineer shall
determine whether the proposed activity has the potential to cause an effect on the historic
properties. Where the non-Federal applicant has identified historic properties on which the
activity may have the potential to cause effects and so notified the Corps, the non-Federal
applicant shall not begin the activity until notified by the district engineer either that the activity
has no potential to cause effects or that consultation under Section 106 of the NHPA has been
completed.
(d) The district engineer will notify the prospective permittee within 45 days of receipt
of a complete pre-construction notification whether NHPA Section 106 consultation is required.
Section 106 consultation is not required when the Corps determines that the activity does not
have the potential to cause effects on historic properties (see 36 CFR §800.3(a)). If NHPA
6
section 106 consultation is required and will occur, the district engineer will notify the non-
Federal applicant that he or she cannot begin work until Section 106 consultation is completed. If
the non-Federal applicant has not heard back from the Corps within 45 days, the applicant must
still wait for notification from the Corps.
(e) Prospective permittees should be aware that section 110k of the NHPA (16 U.S.C.
470h-2(k)) prevents the Corps from granting a permit or other assistance to an applicant who,
with intent to avoid the requirements of Section 106 of the NHPA, has intentionally significantly
adversely affected a historic property to which the permit would relate, or having legal power to
prevent it, allowed such significant adverse effect to occur, unless the Corps, after consultation
with the Advisory Council on Historic Preservation (ACHP), determines that circumstances
justify granting such assistance despite the adverse effect created or permitted by the applicant.
If circumstances justify granting the assistance, the Corps is required to notify the ACHP and
provide documentation specifying the circumstances, the degree of damage to the integrity of
any historic properties affected, and proposed mitigation. This documentation must include any
views obtained from the applicant, SHPO/THPO, appropriate Indian tribes if the undertaking
occurs on or affects historic properties on tribal lands or affects properties of interest to those
tribes, and other parties known to have a legitimate interest in the impacts to the permitted
activity on historic properties.

21. Discovery of Previously Unknown Remains and Artifacts. If you discover any
previously unknown historic, cultural or archeological remains and artifacts while accomplishing
the activity authorized by this permit, you must immediately notify the district engineer of what
you have found, and to the maximum extent practicable, avoid construction activities that may
affect the remains and artifacts until the required coordination has been completed. The district
engineer will initiate the Federal, Tribal and state coordination required to determine if the items
or remains warrant a recovery effort or if the site is eligible for listing in the National Register of
Historic Places.

22. Designated Critical Resource Waters. Critical resource waters include, NOAA-
managed marine sanctuaries and marine monuments, and National Estuarine Research Reserves.
The district engineer may designate, after notice and opportunity for public comment, additional
waters officially designated by a state as having particular environmental or ecological
significance, such as outstanding national resource waters or state natural heritage sites. The
district engineer may also designate additional critical resource waters after notice and
opportunity for public comment.
(a) Discharges of dredged or fill material into waters of the United States are not
authorized by NWPs 7, 12, 14, 16, 17, 21, 29, 31, 35, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 49, 50, 51, and 52 for
any activity within, or directly affecting, critical resource waters, including wetlands adjacent to
such waters.
(b) For NWPs 3, 8, 10, 13, 15, 18, 19, 22, 23, 25, 27, 28, 30, 33, 34, 36, 37, and 38,
notification is required in accordance with general condition 31, for any activity proposed in the
designated critical resource waters including wetlands adjacent to those waters. The district
engineer may authorize activities under these NWPs only after it is determined that the impacts
to the critical resource waters will be no more than minimal.

7
23. Mitigation. The district engineer will consider the following factors when
determining appropriate and practicable mitigation necessary to ensure that adverse effects on
the aquatic environment are minimal:
(a) The activity must be designed and constructed to avoid and minimize adverse effects,
both temporary and permanent, to waters of the United States to the maximum extent practicable
at the project site (i.e., on site).
(b) Mitigation in all its forms (avoiding, minimizing, rectifying, reducing, or
compensating for resource losses) will be required to the extent necessary to ensure that the
adverse effects to the aquatic environment are minimal.
(c) Compensatory mitigation at a minimum one-for-one ratio will be required for all
wetland losses that exceed 1/10-acre and require pre-construction notification, unless the district
engineer determines in writing that either some other form of mitigation would be more
environmentally appropriate or the adverse effects of the proposed activity are minimal, and
provides a project-specific waiver of this requirement. For wetland losses of 1/10-acre or less
that require pre-construction notification, the district engineer may determine on a case-by-case
basis that compensatory mitigation is required to ensure that the activity results in minimal
adverse effects on the aquatic environment. Compensatory mitigation projects provided to offset
losses of aquatic resources must comply with the applicable provisions of 33 CFR part 332.
(1) The prospective permittee is responsible for proposing an appropriate compensatory
mitigation option if compensatory mitigation is necessary to ensure that the activity results in
minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment.
(2) Since the likelihood of success is greater and the impacts to potentially valuable
uplands are reduced, wetland restoration should be the first compensatory mitigation option
considered.
(3) If permittee-responsible mitigation is the proposed option, the prospective permittee is
responsible for submitting a mitigation plan. A conceptual or detailed mitigation plan may be
used by the district engineer to make the decision on the NWP verification request, but a final
mitigation plan that addresses the applicable requirements of 33 CFR 332.4(c)(2) – (14) must be
approved by the district engineer before the permittee begins work in waters of the United States,
unless the district engineer determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not
practicable or not necessary to ensure timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation
(see 33 CFR 332.3(k)(3)).
(4) If mitigation bank or in-lieu fee program credits are the proposed option, the
mitigation plan only needs to address the baseline conditions at the impact site and the number of
credits to be provided.
(5) Compensatory mitigation requirements (e.g., resource type and amount to be provided
as compensatory mitigation, site protection, ecological performance standards, monitoring
requirements) may be addressed through conditions added to the NWP authorization, instead of
components of a compensatory mitigation plan.
(d) For losses of streams or other open waters that require pre-construction notification,
the district engineer may require compensatory mitigation, such as stream rehabilitation,
enhancement, or preservation, to ensure that the activity results in minimal adverse effects on the
aquatic environment.
(e) Compensatory mitigation will not be used to increase the acreage losses allowed by
the acreage limits of the NWPs. For example, if an NWP has an acreage limit of 1/2-acre, it
cannot be used to authorize any project resulting in the loss of greater than 1/2-acre of waters of
8
the United States, even if compensatory mitigation is provided that replaces or restores some of
the lost waters. However, compensatory mitigation can and should be used, as necessary, to
ensure that a project already meeting the established acreage limits also satisfies the minimal
impact requirement associated with the NWPs.
(f) Compensatory mitigation plans for projects in or near streams or other open waters
will normally include a requirement for the restoration or establishment, maintenance, and legal
protection (e.g., conservation easements) of riparian areas next to open waters. In some cases,
riparian areas may be the only compensatory mitigation required. Riparian areas should consist
of native species. The width of the required riparian area will address documented water quality
or aquatic habitat loss concerns. Normally, the riparian area will be 25 to 50 feet wide on each
side of the stream, but the district engineer may require slightly wider riparian areas to address
documented water quality or habitat loss concerns. If it is not possible to establish a riparian area
on both sides of a stream, or if the waterbody is a lake or coastal waters, then restoring or
establishing a riparian area along a single bank or shoreline may be sufficient. Where both
wetlands and open waters exist on the project site, the district engineer will determine the
appropriate compensatory mitigation (e.g., riparian areas and/or wetlands compensation) based
on what is best for the aquatic environment on a watershed basis. In cases where riparian areas
are determined to be the most appropriate form of compensatory mitigation, the district engineer
may waive or reduce the requirement to provide wetland compensatory mitigation for wetland
losses.
(g) Permittees may propose the use of mitigation banks, in-lieu fee programs, or separate
permittee-responsible mitigation. For activities resulting in the loss of marine or estuarine
resources, permittee-responsible compensatory mitigation may be environmentally preferable if
there are no mitigation banks or in-lieu fee programs in the area that have marine or estuarine
credits available for sale or transfer to the permittee. For permittee-responsible mitigation, the
special conditions of the NWP verification must clearly indicate the party or parties responsible
for the implementation and performance of the compensatory mitigation project, and, if required,
its long-term management.
(h) Where certain functions and services of waters of the United States are permanently
adversely affected, such as the conversion of a forested or scrub-shrub wetland to a herbaceous
wetland in a permanently maintained utility line right-of-way, mitigation may be required to
reduce the adverse effects of the project to the minimal level.

24. Safety of Impoundment Structures. To ensure that all impoundment structures are
safely designed, the district engineer may require non-Federal applicants to demonstrate that the
structures comply with established state dam safety criteria or have been designed by qualified
persons. The district engineer may also require documentation that the design has been
independently reviewed by similarly qualified persons, and appropriate modifications made to
ensure safety.

25. Water Quality. Where States and authorized Tribes, or EPA where applicable, have
not previously certified compliance of an NWP with CWA Section 401, individual 401 Water
Quality Certification must be obtained or waived (see 33 CFR 330.4(c)). The district engineer or
State or Tribe may require additional water quality management measures to ensure that the
authorized activity does not result in more than minimal degradation of water quality.

9
26. Coastal Zone Management. In coastal states where an NWP has not previously
received a state coastal zone management consistency concurrence, an individual state coastal
zone management consistency concurrence must be obtained, or a presumption of concurrence
must occur (see 33 CFR 330.4(d)). The district engineer or a State may require additional
measures to ensure that the authorized activity is consistent with state coastal zone management
requirements.

27. Regional and Case-By-Case Conditions. The activity must comply with any regional
conditions that may have been added by the Division Engineer (see 33 CFR 330.4(e)) and with
any case specific conditions added by the Corps or by the state, Indian Tribe, or U.S. EPA in its
section 401 Water Quality Certification, or by the state in its Coastal Zone Management Act
consistency determination.

28. Use of Multiple Nationwide Permits. The use of more than one NWP for a single and
complete project is prohibited, except when the acreage loss of waters of the United States
authorized by the NWPs does not exceed the acreage limit of the NWP with the highest specified
acreage limit. For example, if a road crossing over tidal waters is constructed under NWP 14,
with associated bank stabilization authorized by NWP 13, the maximum acreage loss of waters
of the United States for the total project cannot exceed 1/3-acre.

29. Transfer of Nationwide Permit Verifications. If the permittee sells the property
associated with a nationwide permit verification, the permittee may transfer the nationwide
permit verification to the new owner by submitting a letter to the appropriate Corps district office
to validate the transfer. A copy of the nationwide permit verification must be attached to the
letter, and the letter must contain the following statement and signature:
“When the structures or work authorized by this nationwide permit are still in existence at
the time the property is transferred, the terms and conditions of this nationwide permit, including
any special conditions, will continue to be binding on the new owner(s) of the property. To
validate the transfer of this nationwide permit and the associated liabilities associated with
compliance with its terms and conditions, have the transferee sign and date below.”

_____________________________________________

30. Compliance Certification. Each permittee who receives an NWP verification letter
from the Corps must provide a signed certification documenting completion of the authorized
activity and any required compensatory mitigation. The success of any required permittee-
responsible mitigation, including the achievement of ecological performance standards, will be
addressed separately by the district engineer. The Corps will provide the permittee the
certification document with the NWP verification letter. The certification document will
include:
10
(a) A statement that the authorized work was done in accordance with the NWP
authorization, including any general, regional, or activity-specific conditions;
(b) A statement that the implementation of any required compensatory mitigation was
completed in accordance with the permit conditions. If credits from a mitigation bank or in-lieu
fee program are used to satisfy the compensatory mitigation requirements, the certification must
include the documentation required by 33 CFR 332.3(l)(3) to confirm that the permittee secured
the appropriate number and resource type of credits; and
(c) The signature of the permittee certifying the completion of the work and mitigation.

31. Pre-Construction Notification. (a) Timing. Where required by the terms of the NWP,
the prospective permittee must notify the district engineer by submitting a pre-construction
notification (PCN) as early as possible. The district engineer must determine if the PCN is
complete within 30 calendar days of the date of receipt and, if the PCN is determined to be
incomplete, notify the prospective permittee within that 30 day period to request the additional
information necessary to make the PCN complete. The request must specify the information
needed to make the PCN complete. As a general rule, district engineers will request additional
information necessary to make the PCN complete only once. However, if the prospective
permittee does not provide all of the requested information, then the district engineer will notify
the prospective permittee that the PCN is still incomplete and the PCN review process will not
commence until all of the requested information has been received by the district engineer. The
prospective permittee shall not begin the activity until either:
(1) He or she is notified in writing by the district engineer that the activity may proceed
under the NWP with any special conditions imposed by the district or division engineer; or
(2) 45 calendar days have passed from the district engineer’s receipt of the complete PCN
and the prospective permittee has not received written notice from the district or division
engineer. However, if the permittee was required to notify the Corps pursuant to general
condition 18 that listed species or critical habitat might be affected or in the vicinity of the
project, or to notify the Corps pursuant to general condition 20 that the activity may have the
potential to cause effects to historic properties, the permittee cannot begin the activity until
receiving written notification from the Corps that there is “no effect” on listed species or “no
potential to cause effects” on historic properties, or that any consultation required under Section
7 of the Endangered Species Act (see 33 CFR 330.4(f)) and/or Section 106 of the National
Historic Preservation (see 33 CFR 330.4(g)) has been completed. Also, work cannot begin under
NWPs 21, 49, or 50 until the permittee has received written approval from the Corps. If the
proposed activity requires a written waiver to exceed specified limits of an NWP, the permittee
may not begin the activity until the district engineer issues the waiver. If the district or division
engineer notifies the permittee in writing that an individual permit is required within 45 calendar
days of receipt of a complete PCN, the permittee cannot begin the activity until an individual
permit has been obtained. Subsequently, the permittee’s right to proceed under the NWP may be
modified, suspended, or revoked only in accordance with the procedure set forth in 33 CFR
330.5(d)(2).
(b) Contents of Pre-Construction Notification: The PCN must be in writing and include
the following information:
(1) Name, address and telephone numbers of the prospective permittee;
(2) Location of the proposed project;
11
(3) A description of the proposed project; the project’s purpose; direct and indirect
adverse environmental effects the project would cause, including the anticipated amount of loss
of water of the United States expected to result from the NWP activity, in acres, linear feet, or
other appropriate unit of measure; any other NWP(s), regional general permit(s), or individual
permit(s) used or intended to be used to authorize any part of the proposed project or any related
activity. The description should be sufficiently detailed to allow the district engineer to
determine that the adverse effects of the project will be minimal and to determine the need for
compensatory mitigation. Sketches should be provided when necessary to show that the activity
complies with the terms of the NWP. (Sketches usually clarify the project and when provided
results in a quicker decision. Sketches should contain sufficient detail to provide an illustrative
description of the proposed activity (e.g., a conceptual plan), but do not need to be detailed
engineering plans);
(4) The PCN must include a delineation of wetlands, other special aquatic sites, and other
waters, such as lakes and ponds, and perennial, intermittent, and ephemeral streams, on the
project site. Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the current method
required by the Corps. The permittee may ask the Corps to delineate the special aquatic sites and
other waters on the project site, but there may be a delay if the Corps does the delineation,
especially if the project site is large or contains many waters of the United States. Furthermore,
the 45 day period will not start until the delineation has been submitted to or completed by the
Corps, as appropriate;
(5) If the proposed activity will result in the loss of greater than 1/10-acre of wetlands and
a PCN is required, the prospective permittee must submit a statement describing how the
mitigation requirement will be satisfied, or explaining why the adverse effects are minimal and
why compensatory mitigation should not be required. As an alternative, the prospective
permittee may submit a conceptual or detailed mitigation plan.
(6) If any listed species or designated critical habitat might be affected or is in the vicinity
of the project, or if the project is located in designated critical habitat, for non-Federal applicants
the PCN must include the name(s) of those endangered or threatened species that might be
affected by the proposed work or utilize the designated critical habitat that may be affected by
the proposed work. Federal applicants must provide documentation demonstrating compliance
with the Endangered Species Act; and
(7) For an activity that may affect a historic property listed on, determined to be eligible
for listing on, or potentially eligible for listing on, the National Register of Historic Places, for
non-Federal applicants the PCN must state which historic property may be affected by the
proposed work or include a vicinity map indicating the location of the historic property. Federal
applicants must provide documentation demonstrating compliance with Section 106 of the
National Historic Preservation Act.
(c) Form of Pre-Construction Notification: The standard individual permit application
form (Form ENG 4345) may be used, but the completed application form must clearly indicate
that it is a PCN and must include all of the information required in paragraphs (b)(1) through (7)
of this general condition. A letter containing the required information may also be used.
(d) Agency Coordination: (1) The district engineer will consider any comments from
Federal and state agencies concerning the proposed activity’s compliance with the terms and
conditions of the NWPs and the need for mitigation to reduce the project’s adverse
environmental effects to a minimal level.
12
(2) For all NWP activities that require pre-construction notification and result in the loss
of greater than 1/2-acre of waters of the United States, for NWP 21, 29, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50,
51, and 52 activities that require pre-construction notification and will result in the loss of greater
than 300 linear feet of intermittent and ephemeral stream bed, and for all NWP 48 activities that
require pre-construction notification, the district engineer will immediately provide (e.g., via e-
mail, facsimile transmission, overnight mail, or other expeditious manner) a copy of the
complete PCN to the appropriate Federal or state offices (U.S. FWS, state natural resource or
water quality agency, EPA, State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) or Tribal Historic
Preservation Office (THPO), and, if appropriate, the NMFS). With the exception of NWP 37,
these agencies will have 10 calendar days from the date the material is transmitted to telephone
or fax the district engineer notice that they intend to provide substantive, site-specific comments.
The comments must explain why the agency believes the adverse effects will be more than
minimal. If so contacted by an agency, the district engineer will wait an additional 15 calendar
days before making a decision on the pre-construction notification. The district engineer will
fully consider agency comments received within the specified time frame concerning the
proposed activity’s compliance with the terms and conditions of the NWPs, including the need
for mitigation to ensure the net adverse environmental effects to the aquatic environment of the
proposed activity are minimal. The district engineer will provide no response to the resource
agency, except as provided below. The district engineer will indicate in the administrative record
associated with each pre-construction notification that the resource agencies’ concerns were
considered. For NWP 37, the emergency watershed protection and rehabilitation activity may
proceed immediately in cases where there is an unacceptable hazard to life or a significant loss of
property or economic hardship will occur. The district engineer will consider any comments
received to decide whether the NWP 37 authorization should be modified, suspended, or revoked
in accordance with the procedures at 33 CFR 330.5.
(3) In cases of where the prospective permittee is not a Federal agency, the district
engineer will provide a response to NMFS within 30 calendar days of receipt of any Essential
Fish Habitat conservation recommendations, as required by Section 305(b)(4)(B) of the
Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act.
(4) Applicants are encouraged to provide the Corps with either electronic files or multiple
copies of pre-construction notifications to expedite agency coordination.

D. District Engineer’s Decision

1. In reviewing the PCN for the proposed activity, the district engineer will determine
whether the activity authorized by the NWP will result in more than minimal individual or
cumulative adverse environmental effects or may be contrary to the public interest. For a linear
project, this determination will include an evaluation of the individual crossings to determine
whether they individually satisfy the terms and conditions of the NWP(s), as well as the
cumulative effects caused by all of the crossings authorized by NWP. If an applicant requests a
waiver of the 300 linear foot limit on impacts to intermittent or ephemeral streams or of an
otherwise applicable limit, as provided for in NWPs 13, 21, 29, 36, 39, 40, 42, 43, 44, 50, 51 or
52, the district engineer will only grant the waiver upon a written determination that the NWP
activity will result in minimal adverse effects. When making minimal effects determinations the
district engineer will consider the direct and indirect effects caused by the NWP activity. The
district engineer will also consider site specific factors, such as the environmental setting in the
13
vicinity of the NWP activity, the type of resource that will be affected by the NWP activity, the
functions provided by the aquatic resources that will be affected by the NWP activity, the degree
or magnitude to which the aquatic resources perform those functions, the extent that aquatic
resource functions will be lost as a result of the NWP activity (e.g., partial or complete loss), the
duration of the adverse effects (temporary or permanent), the importance of the aquatic resource
functions to the region (e.g., watershed or ecoregion), and mitigation required by the district
engineer. If an appropriate functional assessment method is available and practicable to use, that
assessment method may be used by the district engineer to assist in the minimal adverse effects
determination. The district engineer may add case-specific special conditions to the NWP
authorization to address site-specific environmental concerns.

2. If the proposed activity requires a PCN and will result in a loss of greater than 1/10-
acre of wetlands, the prospective permittee should submit a mitigation proposal with the PCN.
Applicants may also propose compensatory mitigation for projects with smaller impacts. The
district engineer will consider any proposed compensatory mitigation the applicant has included
in the proposal in determining whether the net adverse environmental effects to the aquatic
environment of the proposed activity are minimal. The compensatory mitigation proposal may be
either conceptual or detailed. If the district engineer determines that the activity complies with
the terms and conditions of the NWP and that the adverse effects on the aquatic environment are
minimal, after considering mitigation, the district engineer will notify the permittee and include
any activity-specific conditions in the NWP verification the district engineer deems necessary.
Conditions for compensatory mitigation requirements must comply with the appropriate
provisions at 33 CFR 332.3(k). The district engineer must approve the final mitigation plan
before the permittee commences work in waters of the United States, unless the district engineer
determines that prior approval of the final mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to
ensure timely completion of the required compensatory mitigation. If the prospective permittee
elects to submit a compensatory mitigation plan with the PCN, the district engineer will
expeditiously review the proposed compensatory mitigation plan. The district engineer must
review the proposed compensatory mitigation plan within 45 calendar days of receiving a
complete PCN and determine whether the proposed mitigation would ensure no more than
minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment. If the net adverse effects of the project on
the aquatic environment (after consideration of the compensatory mitigation proposal) are
determined by the district engineer to be minimal, the district engineer will provide a timely
written response to the applicant. The response will state that the project can proceed under the
terms and conditions of the NWP, including any activity-specific conditions added to the NWP
authorization by the district engineer.

3. If the district engineer determines that the adverse effects of the proposed work are
more than minimal, then the district engineer will notify the applicant either: (a) That the project
does not qualify for authorization under the NWP and instruct the applicant on the procedures to
seek authorization under an individual permit; (b) that the project is authorized under the NWP
subject to the applicant’s submission of a mitigation plan that would reduce the adverse effects
on the aquatic environment to the minimal level; or (c) that the project is authorized under the
NWP with specific modifications or conditions. Where the district engineer determines that
mitigation is required to ensure no more than minimal adverse effects occur to the aquatic
environment, the activity will be authorized within the 45-day PCN period, with activity-specific
14
conditions that state the mitigation requirements. The authorization will include the necessary
conceptual or detailed mitigation or a requirement that the applicant submit a mitigation plan that
would reduce the adverse effects on the aquatic environment to the minimal level. When
mitigation is required, no work in waters of the United States may occur until the district
engineer has approved a specific mitigation plan or has determined that prior approval of a final
mitigation plan is not practicable or not necessary to ensure timely completion of the required
compensatory mitigation.

FURTHER INFORMATION

1. District Engineers have authority to determine if an activity complies with the terms
and conditions of an NWP.
2. NWPs do not obviate the need to obtain other federal, state, or local permits,
approvals, or authorizations required by law.
3. NWPs do not grant any property rights or exclusive privileges.
4. NWPs do not authorize any injury to the property or rights of others.
5. NWPs do not authorize interference with any existing or proposed Federal project.

DEFINITIONS

Best management practices (BMPs): Policies, practices, procedures, or structures
implemented to mitigate the adverse environmental effects on surface water quality resulting
from development. BMPs are categorized as structural or non-structural.
Compensatory mitigation: The restoration (re-establishment or rehabilitation),
establishment (creation), enhancement, and/or in certain circumstances preservation of aquatic
resources for the purposes of offsetting unavoidable adverse impacts which remain after all
appropriate and practicable avoidance and minimization has been achieved.
Currently serviceable: Useable as is or with some maintenance, but not so degraded as to
essentially require reconstruction.
Direct effects: Effects that are caused by the activity and occur at the same time and
place.
Discharge: The term “discharge” means any discharge of dredged or fill material.
Enhancement: The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics of
an aquatic resource to heighten, intensify, or improve a specific aquatic resource function(s).
Enhancement results in the gain of selected aquatic resource function(s), but may also lead to a
decline in other aquatic resource function(s). Enhancement does not result in a gain in aquatic
resource area.
Ephemeral stream: An ephemeral stream has flowing water only during, and for a short
duration after, precipitation events in a typical year. Ephemeral stream beds are located above the
water table year-round. Groundwater is not a source of water for the stream. Runoff from rainfall
is the primary source of water for stream flow.
Establishment (creation): The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological
characteristics present to develop an aquatic resource that did not previously exist at an upland
site. Establishment results in a gain in aquatic resource area.
High Tide Line: The line of intersection of the land with the water’s surface at the
maximum height reached by a rising tide. The high tide line may be determined, in the absence
15
of actual data, by a line of oil or scum along shore objects, a more or less continuous deposit of
fine shell or debris on the foreshore or berm, other physical markings or characteristics,
vegetation lines, tidal gages, or other suitable means that delineate the general height reached by
a rising tide. The line encompasses spring high tides and other high tides that occur with periodic
frequency but does not include storm surges in which there is a departure from the normal or
predicted reach of the tide due to the piling up of water against a coast by strong winds such as
those accompanying a hurricane or other intense storm.
Historic Property: Any prehistoric or historic district, site (including archaeological site),
building, structure, or other object included in, or eligible for inclusion in, the National Register
of Historic Places maintained by the Secretary of the Interior. This term includes artifacts,
records, and remains that are related to and located within such properties. The term includes
properties of traditional religious and cultural importance to an Indian tribe or Native Hawaiian
organization and that meet the National Register criteria (36 CFR part 60).
Independent utility: A test to determine what constitutes a single and complete non-linear
project in the Corps regulatory program. A project is considered to have independent utility if it
would be constructed absent the construction of other projects in the project area. Portions of a
multi-phase project that depend upon other phases of the project do not have independent utility.
Phases of a project that would be constructed even if the other phases were not built can be
considered as separate single and complete projects with independent utility.
Indirect effects: Effects that are caused by the activity and are later in time or farther
removed in distance, but are still reasonably foreseeable.
Intermittent stream: An intermittent stream has flowing water during certain times of the
year, when groundwater provides water for stream flow. During dry periods, intermittent streams
may not have flowing water. Runoff from rainfall is a supplemental source of water for stream
flow.
Loss of waters of the United States: Waters of the United States that are permanently
adversely affected by filling, flooding, excavation, or drainage because of the regulated activity.
Permanent adverse effects include permanent discharges of dredged or fill material that change
an aquatic area to dry land, increase the bottom elevation of a waterbody, or change the use of a
waterbody. The acreage of loss of waters of the United States is a threshold measurement of the
impact to jurisdictional waters for determining whether a project may qualify for an NWP; it is
not a net threshold that is calculated after considering compensatory mitigation that may be used
to offset losses of aquatic functions and services. The loss of stream bed includes the linear feet
of stream bed that is filled or excavated. Waters of the United States temporarily filled, flooded,
excavated, or drained, but restored to pre-construction contours and elevations after construction,
are not included in the measurement of loss of waters of the United States. Impacts resulting
from activities eligible for exemptions under Section 404(f) of the Clean Water Act are not
considered when calculating the loss of waters of the United States.
Non-tidal wetland: A non-tidal wetland is a wetland that is not subject to the ebb and
flow of tidal waters. The definition of a wetland can be found at 33 CFR 328.3(b). Non-tidal
wetlands contiguous to tidal waters are located landward of the high tide line (i.e., spring high
tide line).
Open water: For purposes of the NWPs, an open water is any area that in a year with
normal patterns of precipitation has water flowing or standing above ground to the extent that an
ordinary high water mark can be determined. Aquatic vegetation within the area of standing or
16
flowing water is either non-emergent, sparse, or absent. Vegetated shallows are considered to be
open waters. Examples of “open waters” include rivers, streams, lakes, and ponds.
Ordinary High Water Mark: An ordinary high water mark is a line on the shore
established by the fluctuations of water and indicated by physical characteristics, or by other
appropriate means that consider the characteristics of the surrounding areas (see 33 CFR
328.3(e)).
Perennial stream: A perennial stream has flowing water year-round during a typical year.
The water table is located above the stream bed for most of the year. Groundwater is the primary
source of water for stream flow. Runoff from rainfall is a supplemental source of water for
stream flow.
Practicable: Available and capable of being done after taking into consideration cost,
existing technology, and logistics in light of overall project purposes.
Pre-construction notification: A request submitted by the project proponent to the Corps
for confirmation that a particular activity is authorized by nationwide permit. The request may be
a permit application, letter, or similar document that includes information about the proposed
work and its anticipated environmental effects. Pre-construction notification may be required by
the terms and conditions of a nationwide permit, or by regional conditions. A pre-construction
notification may be voluntarily submitted in cases where pre-construction notification is not
required and the project proponent wants confirmation that the activity is authorized by
nationwide permit.
Preservation: The removal of a threat to, or preventing the decline of, aquatic resources
by an action in or near those aquatic resources. This term includes activities commonly
associated with the protection and maintenance of aquatic resources through the implementation
of appropriate legal and physical mechanisms. Preservation does not result in a gain of aquatic
resource area or functions.
Re-establishment: The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological
characteristics of a site with the goal of returning natural/historic functions to a former aquatic
resource. Re-establishment results in rebuilding a former aquatic resource and results in a gain in
aquatic resource area and functions.
Rehabilitation: The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics
of a site with the goal of repairing natural/historic functions to a degraded aquatic resource.
Rehabilitation results in a gain in aquatic resource function, but does not result in a gain in
aquatic resource area.
Restoration: The manipulation of the physical, chemical, or biological characteristics of a
site with the goal of returning natural/historic functions to a former or degraded aquatic resource.
For the purpose of tracking net gains in aquatic resource area, restoration is divided into two
categories: re-establishment and rehabilitation.
Riffle and pool complex: Riffle and pool complexes are special aquatic sites under the
404(b)(1) Guidelines. Riffle and pool complexes sometimes characterize steep gradient sections
of streams. Such stream sections are recognizable by their hydraulic characteristics. The rapid
movement of water over a course substrate in riffles results in a rough flow, a turbulent surface,
and high dissolved oxygen levels in the water. Pools are deeper areas associated with riffles. A
slower stream velocity, a streaming flow, a smooth surface, and a finer substrate characterize
pools.
Riparian areas: Riparian areas are lands adjacent to streams, lakes, and estuarine-marine
shorelines. Riparian areas are transitional between terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, through
17
which surface and subsurface hydrology connects riverine, lacustrine, estuarine, and marine
waters with their adjacent wetlands, non-wetland waters, or uplands. Riparian areas provide a
variety of ecological functions and services and help improve or maintain local water quality.
(See general condition 23.)
Shellfish seeding: The placement of shellfish seed and/or suitable substrate to increase
shellfish production. Shellfish seed consists of immature individual shellfish or individual
shellfish attached to shells or shell fragments (i.e., spat on shell). Suitable substrate may consist
of shellfish shells, shell fragments, or other appropriate materials placed into waters for shellfish
habitat.
Single and complete linear project: A linear project is a project constructed for the
purpose of getting people, goods, or services from a point of origin to a terminal point, which
often involves multiple crossings of one or more waterbodies at separate and distant locations.
The term “single and complete project” is defined as that portion of the total linear project
proposed or accomplished by one owner/developer or partnership or other association of
owners/developers that includes all crossings of a single water of the United States (i.e., a single
waterbody) at a specific location. For linear projects crossing a single or multiple waterbodies
several times at separate and distant locations, each crossing is considered a single and complete
project for purposes of NWP authorization. However, individual channels in a braided stream or
river, or individual arms of a large, irregularly shaped wetland or lake, etc., are not separate
waterbodies, and crossings of such features cannot be considered separately.
Single and complete non-linear project: For non-linear projects, the term “single and
complete project” is defined at 33 CFR 330.2(i) as the total project proposed or accomplished by
one owner/developer or partnership or other association of owners/developers. A single and
complete non-linear project must have independent utility (see definition of “independent
utility”). Single and complete non-linear projects may not be “piecemealed” to avoid the limits
in an NWP authorization.
Stormwater management: Stormwater management is the mechanism for controlling
stormwater runoff for the purposes of reducing downstream erosion, water quality degradation,
and flooding and mitigating the adverse effects of changes in land use on the aquatic
environment.
Stormwater management facilities: Stormwater management facilities are those facilities,
including but not limited to, stormwater retention and detention ponds and best management
practices, which retain water for a period of time to control runoff and/or improve the quality
(i.e., by reducing the concentration of nutrients, sediments, hazardous substances and other
pollutants) of stormwater runoff.
Stream bed: The substrate of the stream channel between the ordinary high water marks.
The substrate may be bedrock or inorganic particles that range in size from clay to boulders.
Wetlands contiguous to the stream bed, but outside of the ordinary high water marks, are not
considered part of the stream bed.
Stream channelization: The manipulation of a stream’s course, condition, capacity, or
location that causes more than minimal interruption of normal stream processes. A channelized
stream remains a water of the United States.
Structure: An object that is arranged in a definite pattern of organization. Examples of
structures include, without limitation, any pier, boat dock, boat ramp, wharf, dolphin, weir,
boom, breakwater, bulkhead, revetment, riprap, jetty, artificial island, artificial reef, permanent
18
mooring structure, power transmission line, permanently moored floating vessel, piling, aid to
navigation, or any other manmade obstacle or obstruction.
Tidal wetland: A tidal wetland is a wetland (i.e., water of the United States) that is
inundated by tidal waters. The definitions of a wetland and tidal waters can be found at 33 CFR
328.3(b) and 33 CFR 328.3(f), respectively. Tidal waters rise and fall in a predictable and
measurable rhythm or cycle due to the gravitational pulls of the moon and sun. Tidal waters end
where the rise and fall of the water surface can no longer be practically measured in a predictable
rhythm due to masking by other waters, wind, or other effects. Tidal wetlands are located
channelward of the high tide line, which is defined at 33 CFR 328.3(d).
Vegetated shallows: Vegetated shallows are special aquatic sites under the 404(b)(1)
Guidelines. They are areas that are permanently inundated and under normal circumstances have
rooted aquatic vegetation, such as seagrasses in marine and estuarine systems and a variety of
vascular rooted plants in freshwater systems.
Waterbody: For purposes of the NWPs, a waterbody is a jurisdictional water of the
United States. If a jurisdictional wetland is adjacent – meaning bordering, contiguous, or
neighboring – to a waterbody determined to be a water of the United States under 33 CFR
328.3(a)(1)-(6), that waterbody and its adjacent wetlands are considered together as a single
aquatic unit (see 33 CFR 328.4(c)(2)). Examples of “waterbodies” include streams, rivers, lakes,
ponds, and wetlands.

3.0 List of Corps Regional Conditions for All Nationwide Permits

The following conditions apply to all Nationwide Permits in the Wilmington District:

3.1 Limitation of Loss of Perennial Stream Bed

NWPs may not be used for activities that may result in the loss or degradation of greater than
300 total linear feet of perennial, intermittent or ephemeral stream, unless the District
Commander has waived the 300 linear foot limit for ephemeral and intermittent streams on a
case-by-case basis and he determines that the proposed activity will result in minimal individual
and cumulative adverse impacts to the aquatic environment. Loss of stream includes the linear
feet of stream bed that is filled, excavated, or flooded by the proposed activity. Waivers for the
loss of ephemeral and intermittent streams must be in writing and documented by
appropriate/accepted stream quality assessments*. This waiver only applies to the 300 linear feet
threshold for NWPs.

*NOTE: Applicants should utilize the most current methodology prescribed by Wilmington
District to assess stream function and quality. Information can be found at:

http://www.saw.usace.army.mil/wetlands/permits/nwp/nwp2012 (see “Quick Links”)

23

3.2 Mitigation for Loss of Stream Bed

For any NWP that results in a loss of more than 150 linear feet of perennial and/or
ephemeral/intermittent stream, the applicant shall provide a mitigation proposal to compensate
for more than minimal individual and cumulative adverse impacts to the aquatic environment.
For stream losses less than 150 linear feet, that require a PCN, the District Commander may
determine, on a case-by-case basis that compensatory mitigation is required to ensure that the
activity results in minimal adverse effect on the aquatic environment.

3.3 Pre-construction Notification for Loss of Streambed Exceeding 150 Feet.

Prior to use of any NWP for any activity which impacts more than 150 total linear feet of
perennial stream or ephemeral/ intermittent stream, the applicant must comply with Nationwide
Permit General Condition 31 (PCN). This applies to NWPs that do not have specific notification
requirements. If a NWP has specific notification requirements, the requirements of the NWP
should be followed.

3.4 Restriction on Use of Live Concrete

For all NWPs which allow the use of concrete as a building material, live or fresh concrete,
including bags of uncured concrete, may not come into contact with the water in or entering into
waters of the US. Water inside coffer dams or casings that has been in contact with wet concrete
shall only be returned to waters of the US when it is no longer poses a threat to aquatic
organisms.

3.5 Requirements for Using Riprap for Bank Stabilization

For all NWPs that allow for the use of riprap material for bank stabilization, the following
measures shall be applied:

3.5.1. Filter cloth must be placed underneath the riprap as an additional requirement of its use in
North Carolina waters.

3.5.2. The placement of riprap shall be limited to the areas depicted on submitted work plan
drawings.

3.5.3. The riprap material shall be clean and free from loose dirt or any pollutant except in trace
quantities that would not have an adverse environmental effect.

3.5.4. It shall be of a size sufficient to prevent its movement from the authorized alignment by
natural forces under normal conditions.

3.5.5. The riprap material shall consist of clean rock or masonry material such as, but not limited
to, granite, marl, or broken concrete.

24
3.5.6. A waiver from the specifications in this Regional Condition may be requested in writing.
The waiver will only be issued if it can be demonstrated that the impacts of complying with this
Regional condition would result in greater adverse impacts to the aquatic environment.

3.6 Safe Passage Requirements for Culvert Placement

For all NWPs that involve the construction/installation of culverts, measures will be included in
the construction/installation that will promote the safe passage of fish and other aquatic
organisms. The dimension, pattern, and profile of the stream above and below a pipe or culvert
should not be modified by widening the stream channel or by reducing the depth of the stream in
connection with the construction activity. The width, height, and gradient of a proposed culvert
should be such as to pass the average historical low flow and spring flow without adversely
altering flow velocity. Spring flow should be determined from gage data, if available. In the
absence of such data, bankfull flow can be used as a comparable level.

In the twenty (20) counties of North Carolina designated as coastal counties by the Coastal Area
Management Act (CAMA): All pipes/culverts must be sufficiently sized to allow for the burial of
the bottom of the pipe/culvert at least one foot below normal bed elevation when they are placed
within the Public Trust Area of Environmental Concern (AEC) and/or the Estuarine Waters AEC
as designated by CAMA, and/or all streams appearing as blue lines on United States Geological
Survey (USGS) 7.5-minute quadrangle maps.

In all other counties: Culverts greater than 48 inches in diameter will be buried at least one foot
below the bed of the stream. Culverts 48 inches in diameter or less shall be buried or placed on
the stream bed as practicable and appropriate to maintain aquatic passage, and every effort shall
be made to maintain the existing channel slope. The bottom of the culvert must be placed at a
25
depth below the natural stream bottom to provide for passage during drought or low flow
conditions.

Culverts are to be designed and constructed in a manner that minimizes destabilization and head
cutting. Destabilizing the channel and head cutting upstream should be considered and
appropriate actions incorporated in the design and placement of the culvert.

A waiver from the depth specifications in this condition may be requested in writing. The waiver
will be issued if it can be demonstrated that the proposal would result in the least impacts to the
aquatic environment.

All counties: Culverts placed within riparian and/or riverine wetlands must be installed in a
manner that does not restrict the flow and circulation patterns of waters of the United States.
Culverts placed across wetland fills purely for the purposes of equalizing surface water do not
have to be buried.

3.7 Notification to NCDENR Shellfish Sanitation Section

Applicants shall notify the NCDENR Shellfish Sanitation Section prior to dredging in or
removing sediment from an area closed to shell fishing where the effluent may be released to an
area open for shell fishing or swimming in order to avoid contamination from the disposal area
and cause a temporary shellfish closure to be made. Such notification shall also be provided to
the appropriate Corps of Engineers Regulatory Field Office. Any disposal of sand to the ocean
beach should occur between November 1 and April 30 when recreational usage is low. Only
clean sand should be used and no dredged sand from closed shell fishing areas may be used. If
beach disposal were to occur at times other than stated above or if sand from a closed shell
fishing area is to be used, a swimming advisory shall be posted, and a press release shall be
issued by the permittee.

3.8 Preservation of Submerged Aquatic Vegetation

Adverse impacts to Submerged Aquatic Vegetation (SAV) are not authorized by any NWP
within any of the twenty coastal counties defined by North Carolina’s Coastal Area Management
Act of 1974 (CAMA).

3.9 Sedimentation and Erosion Control Structures and Measures

3.9.1. All PCNs will identify and describe sedimentation and erosion control structures and
measures proposed for placement in waters of the US. The structures and measures should be
depicted on maps, surveys or drawings showing location and impacts to jurisdictional wetlands
and streams.

26
4.0 Additional Regional Conditions for Specific Nationwide Permits

4.1 NWP # 40 - Agricultural Activities

4.1.1. This NWP may not be used in channelized or natural streams.

4.1.2. Discharges of dredged or fill material into waters of the US, including wetlands, within the
floodway resulting in permanent above-grade fills are not authorized by this NWP.

*NOTE: Floodway-The area designated and/or regulated by Federal, state, or local requirements
to provide for the discharge of the base flood so the cumulative increase in water surface
elevation is no more than a designated height identified by the regulating entity within the 100-
year floodplain.

4.1.3. Discharges of dredged or fill material into waters of the US, including wetlands, within
the mapped FEMA 100-year floodplain resulting in permanent above-grade fills are not
authorized by this NWP.

4.1.4. This nationwide permit may not be used to authorize the discharges of dredged or fill
material into waters of the United States that have been identified or designated by the State of
North Carolina as:

Outstanding Resource Waters
High Quality Waters
Coastal Wetlands as defined by North Carolina’s Coastal Area Management Act
Wetlands adjacent to these waters

North Carolina Sediment Control Law
1
The purpose of this section is to highlight the portions of the North Carolina
Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 that may affect individuals
involved in construction or other land-disturbing activities. The full text of
the law is included in Appendix 8.08$GGUHVVVSHFL¿FTXHVWLRQVUHJDUGLQJWKH
LQWHUSUHWDWLRQRIWKLVODZWR\RXUUHJLRQDORI¿FHRIWKH/DQG4XDOLW\6HFWLRQRI
the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR).
This law is performance oriented: it prohibits visible off-site sedimentation
from construction sites but permits the owner and developer to determine the
most economical, effective methods for erosion and sedimentation control.
7KLVÀH[LELOLW\LQWKHODZDOORZVIRULQQRYDWLRQDQGFRQVLGHUVWKHXQLTXHQHVV
of each construction site; however, it also requires the developer to plan his
activities carefully in light of their erosion potential. To control erosion and
sedimentation and satisfy the intent of the law, the developer should employ
an integrated system of control measures and management techniques. An
effective control system is based on an understanding of the processes of
erosion and sedimentation and the basic principles for their control. Chapter
2 discusses these processes and principles.
Who is affected?The law governs all land-distrubing activities except agriculture and mining,
which is regulated by the Mining Act of 1971. Erosion and sedimentation
control are required regardless of the size of the disturbance. The law requires
land developers to plan and implement effective temporary and permanent
control measures to prevent accelerated erosion and off-site sedimentation.
Further, if the installed protective measures do not work, additional measures
must be taken.
What does the law
UHTXLUH"
7KHODZUHTXLUHVLQVWDOODWLRQDQGPDLQWHQDQFHRIVXI¿FLHQWHURVLRQFRQWURO
practices to retain sediment within the boundaries of the site. It also requires
that surfaces be non-erosive and stable within 15 working days or 90 calendar
days after completion of the activity, whichever period is shorter. In certain
High Quality watersheds this stabilization must be achieved within 15
working days or 60 calendar days after completion of the activity, whichever
is shortest.
North Carolina
Sedimentation Control Law
Rev. 6/06 1.1
1
An erosion and sedimentation control plan must be submitted at least 30 days
before land disturbance begins on any site 1 acre or larger. The erosion and
sedimentation control plan must be approved by the regulatory agency before
any land-disturbing activities are begun. The erosion control plan requires
a thorough evaluation of the site and the proposed land-disturbing activities
in the planning phase of the development. The details and requirements for
this plan are found in Chapter 4, Preparing the Erosion and Sedimentation
Control Plan. Primary requirements are as follows:
‡$VXI¿FLHQWEXIIHU]RQHPXVWEHUHWDLQHGRUHVWDEOLVKHGDORQJDQ\QDWXUDO
ZDWHUFRXUVHRUODNHWRFRQWDLQDOOYLVLEOHVHGLPHQWWRWKH¿UVWRIWKH
buffer strip nearest the disturbed area. An undisturbed 25 foot buffer
must be maintained along trout waters.
‡7KHDQJOHRIFXWDQG¿OOVORSHVPXVWEHQRJUHDWHUWKDQWKDWVXI¿FLHQW
for proper stabilization. Graded slopes must be vegetated or otherwise
stabilized within 21 calendar days of completion of a phase of grading.
‡2IIVLWHVHGLPHQWDWLRQPXVWEHSUHYHQWHGDQGDJURXQGFRYHUVXI¿FLHQWWR
prevent erosion must be provided within 15 working days or 90 calendar
days, whichever is shorter.
What are the
performance
standards?
Erosion and sedimentation control measures must be designed to provide
protection from a rainfall event equivalent in magnitude to the 10-year peak
runoff. In areas where High Quality Waters (HQW’s) are a concern, the design
requirement is the 25 year storm.
Runoff velocities must be controlled so that the peak runoff from the 10-year
frequency storm occurring during or after construction will not damage the
receiving stream channel at the discharge point. The velocity must not exceed
the greater of:
‡WKHPD[LPXPQRQHURVLYHYHORFLW\RIWKHH[LVWLQJFKDQQHOEDVHGRQVRLO
texture (Table 8.05d, Appendix 8.05), or
‡SHDNYHORFLW\LQWKHFKDQQHOSULRUWRGLVWXUEDQFH
If neither condition can be met, then protective measures must be applied to
the receiving channel.
Who is responsible
for maintenance?
'XULQJFRQVWUXFWLRQWKHSHUVRQ¿QDQFLDOO\UHVSRQVLEOHIRUVLWHGHYHORSPHQWLV
responsible for maintenance of the erosion and sedimentation control practices
installed. The landowner may also be held responsible.
After construction is complete and the surface is permanently stabilized,
responsibility passes to the landowner or the person managing the land.
Who enforces the
law?
The Sedimentation Pollution Control Act provides authority to the State or
authorized local agencies to inspect land-disturbing activities and to prosecute
violators. Citizens damaged by violations of the Act may also take action
through the courts.
1.2 Rev. 6/07
North Carolina Sediment Control Law

Who is the
governing/
responsible agency?
The law created the Sedimentation Control Commission to develop and
administer North Carolina’s sedimentation and erosion control program.
This program is implemented by the DENR, Land Quality Section under
the Commission’s direction. Authorized local governments or agencies may
adopt their own ordinances; however, local programs must be approved by the
Commission and must meet or exceed the minimum standards set by the state.
If their programs are approved, local governments administer and enforce
them. Because these programs vary widely in content and scope, consult the
administering agency to avoid violations of local ordinances.

The state assists and encourages local governments and other state agencies to
develop their own erosion and sedimentation control programs. The DENR
reviews local programs as needed to assure uniform enforcement of the Act.
The state develops educational and instructional materials to demonstrate
methods and practices for erosion and sedimentation control.
The state has developed a set of rules pertinent to sedimentation and erosion
control. These rules were adopted as Title 15A, Chapter 4 of the North
