Dear Mr. Dorney:
Enclosed is the application of Dare County Board of Education for
Department of the Army authorization and State Water Quality Certification
to discharge fill material in 8,400 square feet (0.19 Acres) of Section 404
wetlands for the development of an athletic facility located off S.R. 1121
(Wingina Avenue) and S.R. 1166 (Scuppernong Road), adjacent to Dough's Creek,
at Manteo High School, in Manteo, Dare County, North Carolina. Your receipt
of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request for certification
in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations.
We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant to
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that a water quality
certification may be required under the provisions of Section 401 of the same
law. A Department of the Army permit will not be granted until the
certification has been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days after receipt of
a request for certification is a reasonable time for State action. Therefore,
if you have not acted on the request by August 21, 1995, the District Engineer
will deem that waiver has occurred.
Thank you for your time and cooperation. Questions or comments may be
addressed to Mr. Mickey Sugg, Washington Regulatory Field office, telephone
[phone], extension 1.

Generally, the decision whether to issue this Department of the
Army permit will not be made until the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management (DEM) issues, denies, or waives State
certification required by Section 401 of the clean Water Act. The
DEM considers whether or not the proposed activity will comply with
Sections 301, 302, 306, and 307 of the Clean Water Act. The
application and this public notice for the Department of the Army
permit serves as application to the DEM for certification.
Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act
certification may be reviewed at the offices of the Environmental
Operations Section, North Carolina Division of Environmental
Management, Salisbury Street, Archdale Building, Raleigh, North
Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished to any person
requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs.
The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management plans
to take final action in the issuance of the Clean Water Act
certification on or after July 14, 1995.
All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application
for Clean Water Act certification should do so in writing delivered

The District Engineer, based on available information, is
not aware that the proposed activity will affect species, or their
critical habitat, designated as endangered or threatened pursuant
to the Endangered Species Act of 1973.
The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an
evaluation of the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts,
of the proposed activity and its intended use on the public
interest. Evaluation of the probable impacts which the proposed
activity may have on the public interest requires a careful
weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each
particular case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to
accrue from the proposal must be balanced against its reasonably
foreseeable detriments. The decision whether to authorize a
proposal, and if so the conditions under which it will be allowed
to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome of the general
balancing process. That decision should reflect the national
concern for both protection and utilization of important resources.
All factors which may be relevant to the proposal must be considered
including the cumulative effects thereof. Among those are
conservation, economics, aesthetics, general environmental concerns,
wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values, flood hazards
and flood plain values (in accordance with Executive Order 11988),
land use, navigation, shore erosion and accretion, recreation, water
supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food
and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of property
ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people.
For activities involving the placement of dredged or fill materials
in waters of the United States, a permit will be denied if the
discharge that would be authorized by such permit would not comply
with the Environmental Protection Agencies 404(b)(1) guidelines.
Subject to the preceding sentence and any other applicable
guidelines or criteria, a permit will be granted unless the District
Engineer determines that it would be contrary to the public
interest.
The Corps of Engineers is soliciting comments from the public;
Federal, State and local agencies and officials; Indian Tribes and
other interested parties in order to consider and evaluate the
impacts of this proposed activity. Any comments received will be
considered by the Corps of Engineers to determine whether to issue,
modify, condition or deny a permit for this propcsal. To make this
decision, comments are used to assess impacts on endangered species,
historic properties, water quality, general environmental effects
and the other public interest factors listed above. Comments are
used in the preparation of an Environmental Assessment and/or an
Environmental Impact Statement pursuant to the National
Environmental Policy Act. Comments are also used to determine the
need for a public hearing and to determine the overall public
interest of the proposed activity.

a. The issuance of a Water Quality Certification under
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act by the North Carolina Division
of Environmental Management.
b. The issuance of a permit to dredge and/or fill under North
Carolina General Statute 113-229 by the North Carolina Division of
Coastal Management.

Plan by the Land Quality Section, North Carolina Division of Land
Resources, pursuant to the State Sedimentation Pollution Control
Act of 1973 (NC G.S. 113 A-50-66).
The requested Department of the Army permit will be denied if
any required State or local authorization and/or certification is
denied. No Department of the Army permit will be issued until a
State coordinated viewpoint is received and reviewed by this agency.
Recipients of this notice are encouraged to furnish comments on
factors of concern represented by the above agencies directly to the
respective agency, with a copy furnished to the Corps of Engineers.
This application is being considered pursuant to Section 404
of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). Any person may request,
in writing within the comment period specified in the notice, that
a public hearing be held to consider this application. Requests for
public hearing shall state, with particularity, the reasons for
holding a public hearing.
The District Engineer has consulted the latest published
version of the National Register of Historic Places for the presence
or absence of registered properties, or properties listed as being
eligible for inclusion therein, and this worksite is not registered
property or property listed as being eligible for inclusion in the
Register. Consultation of the National Register constitutes the
extent of cultural resource investigations by the District Engineer,
and he is otherwise unaware of the presence of such resources.
Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistorical, or
historical data may be lost or destroyed by work under the requested
permit.

PUBLIC NOTICE
The Dare County Board of Education, Manteo High School,
c/o Mr. Steve Holden, Post Office Box 640, Manteo, North Carolina
27954, at telephone no. [phone], has applied for a Department
of the Army permit to DISCHARGE FILL MATERIAL WITHIN 8,400 SQUARE
FEET (0.19 ACRES) OF SECTION 404 WETLANDS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
AN ATHLETIC FACILITY located off S.R. 1121 (Wingina Avenue) and
S.R. 1166 (Scuppernong Road), adjacent to Dough s Creek, at Manteo
High School, in Manteo, Dare County, North Carolina.
The following description of the work is taken from data
provided by the applicant, and from observations made during an
onsite inspection by a representative of the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers. The purpose of the project is to expand the existing
athletic facility with the addition of a softball, soccer, and
football practice field. In addition, this will provide additional
space to host various athletic events.
Plans submitted with the application show the construction of a
multi-sport practice field located northeast of the existing Manteo
High School Football Stadium. The construction plans show the
dimensions of the practice field to be approximately 335-feet long
by 150-feet wide. Approximately 8,400 square feet (0.19 AC) of
wetlands will be filled to facilitate construction. The wetlands
within the project area are primarily vegetated with Pinus taeda,
Acer rubrum, Persea borbonia, Leonia lucida, Arundinaria aiaantea,
and Smilax laurifolia, and are underlain with Hobonny Muck. The
applicant proposes to use clean, sand fill material. All impacted
areas will stabilized by silt fences and seeded during and after
construction. Plans showing the work are included with this public
notice.
The applicant has determined that the proposed work is
consistent with the North Carolina Coastal Zone Management Plan and
has submitted this determination to the North Carolina Division of
Coastal Management for their review and concurrence. This proposal
shall be reviewed for the applicability of other actions by North
Carolina agencies such as:

C/O Mr. John Dorney
Dear Mr. Dorney:
The purpose of this correspondence is for Mitchell &-Associates, Inc.,
representing the Dare County Schools-Manteo High School, to submit a
Department of the Army Individual Permit Application to place fill material
within Section 404 wetlands. All proposed work will take place on property
owned by the Dare County Schools, located off SR 1121 (Wingina Avenue)
and SR 1 166 (Scuppernong Road), behind Manteo High School, adjacent
Dough's Creek, within the town of Manteo, Dare County, North Carolina.
The applicant proposes to place fill material within 8,400 square feet
(0.19 Acre) of Department of the Army Section 404 jurisdictional wetlands.
The proposed fill will facilitate the completion of an on-going effort to enhance
existing athletic facilities for the Dare County School System. The proposed
fill area will be utilized as an expansion area for a proposed football practice
field.
The applicant has considered other alternatives to placement of fill material
within wetlands to accomplish their project goal, however, due to the limited
availability of highground and the school's arrangement of existing athletic
facilities on the site, there are no other economical or practicable alternatives
available. In addition, the project has been designed to minimize wetland
impacts to the maximum extent practicable, and considering the vast wetland
resources in the area versus the small amount of wetlands to be impacted as a
result of this proposal, the over-all wetland impacts are minimal.
The wetland area to be filled is located outside of the CAMA Area of
Environmental Concern, and consists of a wooded swamp forest adjacent to
Dough's Creek. The project has been designed to preclude any additional
impact to other waters or wetlands on the tract, and will be constructed in such
a manner as to immediately stabilize all affected areas.
Pursuant to the recent Regulatory Guidance Letter issued by the Chief
of the Corps of Engineers, Washington, D.C., regarding Department of the
Army Permit flexibility in evaluating Individual Permit Applications, I request
your consideration of this proposal in a similar accord.
Thank you for your time and prompt attention. to these issues. If you
have any questions or comments regarding this or other concerns, please do
not hesitate to contact me at my office.
Sincerely,
Mr. Gary A. Mitchell
