The following description of the work is taken from data provided by the applicant and from observations made during a site visit by a representative of the Corps of Engineers. Plans submitted with the application show the excavation of approximately 1,000 cubic yards of sediment from an area 120-feet long by 80-feet wide immediately upstream of the dam. An average of 3-feet of sediment will be removed by a dragline or trackhoe and deposited on the adjacent bank between the reservoir and the road. Silt fencing is to be installed to prevent reentry into the lake until the spoil material has been stabilized. An existing cofferdam above the lake, which was used to dewater the site during the original dam construction, will be extended with sandbags in order to temporarily carry the streamflow through three flexible pipes to the sluice gate of the dam. The extension will involve the placement of a 20-foot long by 8-foot high stack of sandbags. The applicant estimates that ten cubic yards or less of sediment will be discharged into White Oak Creek when the sluice gate is opened to drain the lake. The purpose of the work is to remove sediment that is restricting the flow of water into the intake tunnel for electrical power generation. Plans showing the work are included with this public notice. The State of North Carolina will review this public notice to determine the need for the applicant to obtain any required State authorization. No Department of the Army (DA) permit will be issued until the coordinated State viewpoint on the proposal has been received and reviewed by this agency, nor will a DA permit be issued until the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (NCDEM) has determined the applicability of a Water Quality Certificate as required by PL 92-500. Approval of this permit will give Federal authorization for maintenance dredging for a period of time not to exceed 10 years from the date of permit issuance. The permittee will be required to present plans to the District Engineer a minimum of 2 weeks prior to commencement of such maintenance work, All maintenance would be performed in accordance with Federal, State, and local permits and regulations governing such activities at the time the maintenance is undertaken. 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 site 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. 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 proposal. 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 (EA) and/or an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA). Comments are also used to determine the need for a public hearing and to determine the overall public interest of the proposed activity. Generally, the decision whether to issue this Department of the Army (DA) permit will not be made until the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (NCDEM) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The NCDEM 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 (DA) permit serves as application to the NCDEM 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 (NCDEM), Salisbury Street, Archdale Building, Raleigh, North Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished to any person requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs. 2 ~ All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for Clean Water Act certification should do so in writing delivered to the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management (NCDEM), Post Office Box 27687, Raleigh, North Carolina 27611-7687, on or before May 24, 1996, Attention: Mr. John Dorney.

A COFFER DAM WAS BUILT TO RE-ROUTE THE STREAMFLOW AWAY FROM THE DAM CONSTRUCTION. THIS PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED COFFER DAM WAS LEFT INTACT AND IS PRESENTLY UNDER THE FOOT BRIDGE COVERED BY THREE FEET OF WATER. N.P.&L IS PLANNING TO EXTEND THE COFFER DAM USING SANDBAGS TO COMPLETELY CHANNEL WHITE OAK STREAMFLOW INTO THREE FLEXIBLE PIPES. THE SANDBAG EXTENSION WILL BE APPROXIMATELY TWENTY FEET LONG AND EIGHT FEET HIGH. THESE PIPES WILL RUN FROM THE COFFER DAM TO THE SLUICE GATE LOCATED IN THE BOTTOM LEFT SIDE OF THE DAM. THE PIPES WILL CARRY THE STREAMFLOW AFTER WHITE OAK DAM IS DRAINED SO THE SILT CAN BE REMOVED. AN AREA APPROX. ONE HUNDRED TWENTY FEET LONG BY EIGHTY FEET WIDE WILL BE DUG OUT USING A DRAGLlNE OR TRACKHOE. THE AVERAGE DEPTH OF SILT TO BE RE- MOVED IS ESTIMATED TO BE THREE FEET. IT IS ESTIMATED THAT ONE THOUSAND CUBIC YARDS OF SILT WILL BE REMOVED. AS THE SILT IS DUG OUT. IT WILL BE PLACED IN A STORAGE SITE BUILT WITH PYLONS ON THE SIDE OF THE DAM NEXT TO THE HIGHWAY. SILT FENCES WILL ALSO BE PLACED TO KEEP SILT FROM SEEPING BACK INTO THE LAKE. WHEN THE SLUICE GATE IS OPENED, IT IS ESTIMATED THAT TEN CUBIC YARDS OR LESS WILL BE DISCHARGED INTO WHITE OAK CREEK. FOR MORE ACURATE DIMENSIONS. SEE ATTACHED SCALE DRAWING OF WHITE OAK DAM.
