Dear Mr. Templeton:
Reference your June 4, 1993 application, submitted on your behalf by
Mr. Charles Davis of Atlantic Plan Corporation, for Department of the Army
(DA) authorization to construct a pond adjacent the headwaters of Middle Fork
between Bass Lake and Lake Chetola on Chetola Resort property in Blowing Rock,
Watauga County, North Carolina. Approximately 0.893 acre of wetlands will be
impacted by the dam fill and the subsequent inundation. The purpose for the
project is to enhance the area's landscaping for future Chetola Resort
expansion into the area. This project has been coordinated with the N.C.
Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC).
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 (NWP).
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 NWP 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 (NCDEM). You should contact Mr. John Dorney, telephone (919)
733-1786, regarding water quality certification. This NWP 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
-2-
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.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Steve Chapin, Asheville

Reference your October 4, 1993 application, submitted on your behalf by
Mr. Charles Davis, for Department. of the Army (DA) authorization to replace an
existing stone bridge with an 87 inch by 137 inch arch pipe over an unnamed
tributary to Middle Fork, New River, near Blowing Rock at Chetola Lake, in
Watauga County, North Carolina. The existing bridge has been damaged and
needs to be replaced. The new arch pipe will be installed between existing

NARRATIVE
PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The purpose of this project is to construct a small dam.
Approximately 3 acres will be disturbed during the construction
period. The site is located on the Chetola Resort in Blowing Rock,
NC. There is no significant erosion evident at the present time.
Land use in the vicinity'is at this time undeveloped multi-family
and developed single family residential.
SOILS
The soil unified textural classification on the project is SM, SM-
SC, and is in the Hydrology Group B. The soil erodibility factor
is 0.24 and should have a moderate erosion rate. No significant
erosion is anticipated with the new construction.

CONSTRUCTION SCHEDULE
1. Obtain Erosion Control Plan Approval.
2. Flag work limits.
3. Hold pre-construction conference at least one week prior to
starting construction.
4. Install temporary erosion control measures.
5. Begin clearing and stripping of dam area.
G. Close small ditch to through creek flow.
7. Construction gate tower at conduit pipe.
8. Begin installation of conduit pipe. Install flexible pipe
over area where dam keyway is to be excavated.
9. Install flexible pipe from gate upstream to temporary rock
dam.
10. Divert creek flow through conduit.
11. Begin undercutting of dam for keyway. Place backf ill in G
inch layers. Provide pump for underground water.
12. Finish placing backfill in under cut area and finish
installing permanent 12" conduit, using pump at temporary dam.
13. Construct toe drain with gravel.
14. Grade bottom of pond area to min. 3.5 ft. depth, leaving a
protective berm along main creek channel to keep silt out of
stream. Fertilize and grass the bottom of the pond
immediately upon completion of grading.
15. Begin placing homogenous fill in G inch layers at dam site.
16. After fill for dam is placed, install concrete spillway and
seed and mulch dam.
17. Remove erosion control measures and permanently seed.

MAINTENANCE PLAN
1. All erosion and sediment control practices will be
checked for stability and operation following every
runoff-producing rainfall but in no case less than once
every week. Any needed repairs will be made immediately
to maintain all practices as designed.
2. Sediment will be removed from the sediment traps when
storage capacity has been approximately 50% filled.
Gravel will be cleaned or replaced when the sediment pool
no longer drains properly.
3. Sediment will be removed frorn behind the sediment
fence when it becomes about 0.5 feet deep at the fence.
The sediment fence will be repaired as necessary to
maintain a barrier.
4. All seeded areas will be fertilized, reseeded as
necessary, and mulched according to specifications in the
Seeding Specifications to maintain a vigorous, dense
vegetative cover.

Apply 4,000-5,000 lb/acro grain straw or equivalent cover of another
suitable mulching material. Anchor mulch by tacking with asphalt, roving,

by rolling and watering.
Maintenance
The bunch-type habit of tall fescue restricts its spread into dam aged areas.
Reseed bare spots in the fall. Reforlilizo annually in late winter and again
in fall. Rosood, fortilize, and mulch damaged areas immediately.

Soil amendments
Apply lime and fertilizer according to soil tests, or apply 4,000 Ib/acro
ground agricultural limestone and 1,200 Ib/acro 10-10-10 fertilizer.
Mulch
Use jute, excelsior matting, or a similar channel lining material to cover the
bottom of channels and ditches. The lining should extend above the
highest calculated depth of flow. On channel side slopes above this height,
and in drainages not requiring temporary linings, apply 4,000 lb/acre grain
straw and anchor straw by stapling netting over the top.
Mulch and anchoring materials must not be allowed to wash down slope
where they can clog drainage devices.
Maintenance
Inspect and repair mulch frequently. Refertilize in late winter according to
soil tests or apply 150 lb/acre 10-10-10 fertilizer (3 lb/1,000 ft?). Mow
regularly to a height of 2-4 inches.
