Willie,
I've reviewed your application requesting a Corps NW 14 permit and 401 Water Quality Certification for the widening of
Old Airport Rd in Craven County and I will need the following information to finish processing your request:
• Ditches are shown being cut through the wetlands at the culvert crossing at Impact Site 1. Is it possible to
eliminate the portion of the ditches through the wetlands? If ditches are required in the wetlands, it would
constitute a permanent impact in the form of excavation. A portion of the ditch in the NE corner where it ties
into the stream is shown in the temporary wetland impact area. This needs to be shown as a permanent impact
if a ditch is needed here. Please adjust accordingly.
• At impact Site 2, an F symbol for fill is shown in the temporary wetland impact (TW) area In the SW corner of the
crossing. If fill is going in the wetlands in this area, it would constitute a permanent impact. Please clarify.
• The application states that the temporary wetland impacts are needed for construction access. Are these
impacts in the form of hand clearing, temporary fill or both?
Accordingly, I will need to place your application on hold until I receive the requested information. Please let me know if
you have any questions. Thanks.
