APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and Authorization Certificate per the Catawba River
Buffer Protection Rules (15A NCAC 28 ,0243) with Additional Conditions

Dear Mr. Poplin:

You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill in
or to otherwise impact approximately 0.008 acre of waters and 0.008 acre of protected riparian buffers for the
purpose of constructing a seawall along approximately 140 linear feet of shoreline on Lake Norman, as
described in your application received on May 11, 2004. After reviewing your application, we have determined
that this project is covered by Water Quality General Certification Number 3373, which can be viewed on our
web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. The General Certification allows you to use Regional Permit
No. 198200030 once it is issued to you by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACOE). This letter also serves
as your approved Authorization Certificate for impacts to the protected riparian buffers per 15A NCAC 2B .0243.
Please note that you should get any other federal, state or local permits before proceeding with your project,
including those required by (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge, and Water Supply
Watershed regulations.

The above noted Certification will expire when the associated USACOE's 404 permit expires unless
otherwise specified in the General Certification. This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you
described in your application. If you change your project, you must notify us in writing, and you may be required
to send us a new application for a new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy
of the Certification and approval letter; and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If the total
wetland fill for this project (now or in the future) exceeds one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required as
described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h).

For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached Certification, as well as
the additional conditions listed below:

1. All stormwater shall be directed as diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected stream buffers
so as not to re-concentrate before discharging into the stream (as identified in 15A NCAC 28.0243 (5)).

2. No trees are to be removed (except those along the immediate shoreline) from the buffer, and impacts to the
ground cover shall be kept to a minimum during the construction of the seawall.

3, Upon completion of the project, the applicant/responsible party shall complete and return the enclosed
"Certificate of Completion" form to the Division of Water Quality's 401/Wetlands Unit.

SUBJECT: Review of an application by Hughes & Associates, Lot 20, I-Iadley Harbor
Court, The Point Subdivision, DWQ No. 040774, Iredell County

The applicant is requesting 401 Water Quality Certification from the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality. The NCWRC has reviewed information provided by the
applicant, and field biologists on our staff are familiar with habitat values of the project
area. These comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Clean Water
Act of 1977 (33 U.S.c. 466 et. seq.) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat.
401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-667d).

The permit application indicates that the project will install 140' of Allan Block wall with
a river rock base. This office prefers the use of a more "natural" approach to shoreline
stabilization. A combination ofriprap used to two feet above normal pool elevation with
banks sloped back and vegetated with grass, willows or other acceptable vegetation
create a more "natural" bank. A filter fabric must be used in order to prevent soil from
eroding from behind the riprap during high-water and/or wave action. Riprap should be
imbedded into the lake bottom to prevent undercutting. We do not support the use of
river rock iflnstream mining is used to obtain the rock. The following recommendations
should be considered during 401 Certification issuance:

1. The stabilization project should be done with minimum class I (class II
preferred) riprap or rock. This size rock improves aquatic habitat
structure. We do not support the use of river rock as mining river rock
causes impacts to aquatic environments and destabilizes riparian zones by
causing unnatural geomorphic regime modifications. Fabric matting may

be used beneath the stone to reduce erosion and turbidity. To the extent
practicable, rock or stone should be placed just above the high water mark
and towards the lake 5-6 feet or further to provide continuous aquatic edge
habitat. Rock should not be extended to the normal waters edge in order
to preserve aquatic beach habitat.
2. Any Large Woody Debris (L WD) should be maintained to the maximum
extent practicable to provide aquatic habitat. If relocated, the L WD must
be securely anchored so that it will remain where installed. Three L WDs
were observed by Mr. Brown.
3. Stringent erosion control measures should be installed where soil is
disturbed and maintained until project completion. Temporary or
permanent herbaceous vegetation should be planted on all bare soil within
10 days of ground disturbing activities to provide long-term erosion
control.
4. Disturbed banks may be revegetated with silky dogwood (Corn us
amonwn), silky willow (Salix sericea), tag alder (Alnus serrulata), black
willow (Salix nigra), and sycamore (Platanus occidentalis) or other native
plants to provide long term bank stability and stream shading. Note that
silky dogwood, silky willow and black willow can be planted as live
stakes collected during the dormant growing season. Cuttings should be
randomly planted and done on 4 foot centers from the waters edge to the
top of the bank. Trees should be planted on 10-12 foot centers. Banks in
these areas should also be seeded with an approved wetland seed mix or
temporary crop of wheat or rye.
5. Wide undisturbed shoreline buffers and natural vegetation should be
maintained and Catawba buffers rules should be followed to the extent
practicable.

Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project. If you have any
questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 336/769-9453.
