Box 7791 Rocky Mount, NC 27804 Re: Inert Debris - "Clean Fill" Landfill DEM Project #91914 ACE JN 93-036 Dear Mr. Edwards: 841 S. WESLEYAN BLVD. TELEPHONE (919) 972-7703 FAX + (919) 972-7638 I have discussed the above captioned project with Mr. Ron Ferrell, NCDEH & NR, Division of Environmental Management and we have come to the conclusion an additional Water Quality Certification is not required to complete the above captioned project. In order to fill the entire wetland with an inert debris landfill we must however legally bind the approved certification to the "development" of the site. Development meaning that when the site buildings are constructed a Storm Water Management Basin equaling or exceeding the original designed basin must be constructed. The Storm Water Basin can be redesigned and relocated as long as the basin meets the original design criteria. The basin will need to be binded to the land and not the Owners in case the land is sold and another group developes. Please legally bind the the attached Water Quality Certification to the land in order for us to continue the approval process. If you have any questions or comments please contact me at 919-972-7703.

Tnt: shurLno;?;e sturgeon (Hc;ipenser brevirostrum), along the Atlantic coast, and the Gulf sturgeon (Asivenser oxyrhynchus desotoi), along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, are the endangered species under the jurisdiction of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) which are most likely to occur in your project area. In the absence of evidence to the contrary it must be assumed that these sturgeon are present and may be adversely affected by your proposed activity. The Endangered Species Act of 1973 as amended (ESA) requires that federal agencies consult with the NMFS and/or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) when an action permitted, funded, or carried out by an agency (in this case the Corps of Engineers) may jeopardize the continued existence of, or adversely affect, endangered or threatened species. Therefore it is the responsibility of the Corps of Engineers (COE) to make this determination and consult with the NMFS and FWS. This responsibility cannot be delegated to nonfederal organizations or individuals. I suggest that you contact your local COE District Office. They are aware of the situation and they should contact our office with the appropriate information regarding your project.

Matthews, Section Chief SUBJECT: Management of Construction, Demolition, Land Clearing, Inert, and Yard Trash Debris It is the intent of this revised memo to clarify the Solid Waste Section's Policy regarding the proper management of that portion of the solid waste stream referred to as "construction/demolition" debris. The long term objective is to manage these waste types in accordance with the goals and policies of the Solid Waste Management Act of 1989 (The Act). The Act established a policy for promoting methods of solid waste management that are alternatives to disposal in landfills. A hierarchy of management methods was established with source reduction, recycling and reuse, and composting preferable to incineration or disposal. The Act further required that, as a part of a comprehensive recycling program to be initiated by July 1, 1991, construction/demolition debris be separated from the waste stream and segregated in separate locations at a solid waste management facility or other permitted site. In furtherance of that goal, the waste stream was differentiated into four distinct categories to encourage recycling and reuse: construction and demolition, land-clearing, inert, and yard trash debris. The Act defines Yard Trash as solid waste consisting of vegetative matter resulting from landscaping maintenance, such as leaves, grass, limbs, trimmings etc. P.O. Box 27687, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7687 Telephone 919.7334984 Fax 1 919-1?3-0513 An Equal Opportunity Affirmative Action Employer Land-clearing gbris is defined as solid waste which is generated solely from land-clearing activities, such as stumps, trees, etc. Inert debris is defined as solid waste which consists solely of material that is virtually inert, such as brick, concrete, rock and clean soil. Construction or Demolition debris is defined as solid waste resulting solely from construction, remodeling, repair or demolition operations on pavement, buildings, or other structures, but does not include inert, land- clearing or yard trash debris. In accordance with the goals and policies of the Solid Waste Management Act of 1989, the Solid Waste Section has established the following HIERARCHY FOR MANAGEMENT of these wastes: RECYCLING AND REUSE Yard Trash and Land-clearing debris defined as yard waste in the recently adopted Solid Waste Management Rules should be managed in accordance with Section .0900 of those rules. Source reduction methods and recycling and reuse of these wastes as mulch or compost are the preferred methods of management. In furtherance of the management hierarchy, the Act prohibited the disposal of yard trash in sanitary landfills after January 1, 1993. Please refer to Policy Memorandum 1414, revised, and Clarification - Yard Trash Ban for specific management guidance. / Inert Debris should be recycled and reused as "clean fill" material or for other beneficial reuse as approved by the Section. A solid waste permit is not required if the fill activity meets the requirements of the Solid Waste ?- Management Rules, 15A NCAC 13B .0562. 3. Beneficial fill activity is not exempt from other local, state or federal regulations including, but not limited to, zoning restriction, flood plain ?. regulations, wetland restrictions or sedimentation/erosion control regulations. `A In addition, House Bill 1131, ratified July 3, 1991, allows the use of used asphalt or used asphalt mixed with dirt, sand, gravel, rock, and concrete a as fill material. 0 Land-clearing debris consisting of vegetative matter such as limbs, stumps, etc. is not allowed as a beneficial fill material due to subsidence/settling problems and potential methane gas generation associated with decomposition. Construction or Demolition Debris shall be separated into recyclable and' non-recyclable materials and those materials which can not be reused should' POLICY MEMORANDUM #16 - Revised PAGE 3 be disposed of within a Construction and Demolition landfill or Municipal Solid Waste landfill. If recycling and reuse is not economically feasible, these waste types may be incinerated. Incineration must be conducted in accordance with all pertinent local, state, and federal regulations and under the conditions specified in the incinerator permit. DISPOSAL Landfill Disposal shall be considered the least preferable method of management of these waste types. Land Clearing and Inert Debris Landfills Rules addressing Land Clearing and Inert Debris (LCID) landfills have been adopted addressing disposal of land clearing waste, r trash, and inert debris. These Rules became effective January 4, 1993, and are contained in the North Carolina Solid Waste Management Rules, 15A NCAC 13B .0560. In conformance with North Carolina General Statute 4130A-309.09B(a)(1), used asphalt or used asphalt mixed with dirt, sand, gravel, rock, and concrete may also be disposed of in LCID landfills, effective till July 1, 1993. Construction and Demolition Landfills A landfill operated for disposal of construction or demolition debris must meet the permit requirements outlined in Sections.0503 and .0504 of the Solid Waste Management Rules with the following exceptions: (a) Location distances from airport runways do not apply since this waste type is not putrescible. (b) Present policy does not require a liner-leachate collection system for these waste types. A separate location within a permitted Municipal Sanitary Landfill (excluding buffer area) which meets these requirements, will be approved for disposal of construction/demolition debris through an amendment to permit. POLICY MEMORANDUM #16 - Revised PAGE 4 If a separate area is not available, those materials which were separated from the waste stream but which can not be recycled shall, upon written request, be approved for co-disposal within a sanitary landfill. In summary, the Section's policy Is to promote the segregation and separation of various portions of the waste stream to allow reuse and recycling. The disposal requirements and associated costs should provide incentive for the separation of recyclable materials during construction and more effective salvage operations prior to demolition. Local governments are encouraged to support this policy of effectively managing this portion of the solid waste stream by: (1) Promoting source reduction, recycling and reuse and composting (2) Providing adequate disposal capacity for non-recyclables and (3) Taking enforcement action against non-conforming disposal sites. Architects, contractors and any persons contracting such construction or demolition activities should include in the contract the cost to reuse recyclable materials and properly dispose of non-recyclable materials. / .0562 BENEFICIAL FILL A permit is not required for beneficial fill activity that meets all of the following conditions: (1) The fill material consists only of inert debris strictly limited to concrete, brick, concrete block, uncontaminated soil, rock, and gravel. (2) The fill activity involves no excavation. (3) The purpose of the fill activity is to improve land use potential or other approved beneficial reuses. V) j (4) The fill activity is not exempt from, and must comply with, all other applicable Federal, State, and Local laws, ordinances, rules, and regulations, including but not limited to zoning restrictions, flood plain restrictions, wetland restrictions, mining regulations, sedimentation and erosion control regulations. Fill activity shall not contravene groundwater standards. History Note. Statutory Authority G. S. 130A-294; Ef. .. January 4, 1993. .0563 APPLICABILITY REQUIREMENTS FOR LAND CLEARING AND INERT DEBRIS (LCID) LANDFi LILS Management of land clearing and inert debris shall be in accordance with the State hierarchy for managing solid waste as provided for under N.C.G.S. § 130A-309.04(a). Disposal in a landfill is considered to be the least desirable method of managing land clearing and inert debris. Where landfdling is necessary, the requirements of this Rule apply. (1) An individual permit from the Division of Solid Waste Management is not required for Land Clearing and Inert Debris (LCID) landfills that meet all of the following conditions: (a) The facility is to be operated for the disposal of land clearing waste, inert debris, untreated wood, and yard trash. Operations must be consistent and in compliance with the local government solid waste management plan as approved by the Division of Solid Waste Management. (b) The total disposal area Is under two acres in size. (c) The facility and practices comply with the siting criteria under Rule .0564, and operational requirements under Rule .0566. (d) The fill activity is not exempt from, and must comply with all other Federal, State, or Local laws, ordinances, Rules, regulations, or orders, including but not limited to zoning restrictions, flood plain restrictions, wetland restrictions, sedimentation and erosion control requirements, and mining regulations. (2) Where an individual permit is not required, the following applies: (a) The owner of the land where the landfill is located must notify the Division on a prescribed form, duly signed, notarized, and recorded as per Rule .0563(2)(b). The operator of the landfill, if different from the land owner, shall also sign the notification form. (b) The owner must file the prescribed notification form for recordation in the Register of Deeds' Office. The Register of Deeds shall index the notification in the grantor index under the name of the owner of the land in the county or counties in which the land is located. A copy of the recorded notification, axed with the Register's seal and the date, book and page number of recording shall be sent to the Division of Solid Waste Management. (c) When the land on which the Land Clearing and Inert Debris Landfill is sold, leased, conveyed, or transferred in any manner, the deed or other instrument of transfer shall contain in the description section in no smaller type than that used in the body of the deed or instrument a statement that the property has been used as a Land Clearing and Inert Debris Landfill and a reference by book and page to the recordation of the notification. .,.oo' DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY WILMINGTON DISTRICT, CORPS OF ENGINEERS P.O.

This Certification replaces Water Quality Certification Number 2176 issued on November 5, 1987. The State of North Carolina certifies that the specified category of activity will not violate Sections 301, 302, 303, 306 and 307 of the Public Laws 92-500 and 95-217 if conducted in accordance with the conditions hereinafter set forth. Conditions of Certification: 1. Proposed fill or substantial modification of greater than one-third of an acre of such waters, including wetlands, requires a written concurrence from the Division of Envi- ronmental Management. 2. Proposed fill or substantial modification of equal to or less than one-third of an acre of such waters, including wetlands, does not require written concurrence from the Division of Environmental Management. 3. Proposed fill of greater than one acre in SA, trout, HQW, ORW, WS-I and WS-II watersheds requires public notice and an individual 401 Certification from the Divi- sion of Environmental Management; 4. That established sediment and erosion control practices are utilized to prevent violations of the appropriate turbidity water quality standard (50 NTUs in streams and rivers not designated as trout waters by DEM; 25 NTUs in all saltwater classes, and all lakes and reservoirs; 10 NTUs in trout waters); 5. That additional site-specific conditions may be added to projects with greater than one-third of an acre impact which are proposed under this Certification in order to ensure compliance with all applicable water quality and effluent standards; 6.

Box 7245 Rocky Mount, North Carolina 27804 Dear Mr. Edwards: Reference your revised application of March 22, 1993, for Department of the Army authorization to discharge fill material within waters of the United States, causing the loss of 2.26 acres of wetlands adjacent to, and above the headwaters of, an unnamed tributary to Compass Creek, at an abandoned clay borrow pit, on the east side of U.S. 301 Business (N. Church Street), 1,500 feet north of S.R. 1541, in Rocky Mount, Nash County, North Carolina. For the purposes of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program, Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in the Federal Register on November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits. Authorization was provided, pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, for discharges of dredged or fill material into headwaters and isolated waters. Your work is authorized by this nationwide permit provided it is accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions and provided you receive a Section 401 water quality certification from the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management. This nationwide permit does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain other required State or local approval. This verification will be valid for 2 years from the date of this letter unless the nationwide authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. Also, this verification will remain valid for the 2 years if, during that period, the nationwide permit authorization is reissued without modification or the activity complies with any subsequent modification of the nationwide permit authorization. If during the 2 years, the nationwide permit authorization expires or is suspended or revoked, or is modified, such that the activity would no longer comply with the terms and conditions of the nationwide permit, activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under contract to commence in reliance upon the nationwide permit will remain authorized provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the date of the nationwide permit's expiration, modification or revocation, unless discretionary authority has been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify, suspend, or revoke the authorization.
