APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and Tar-Pamlico River Buffer Rules
Dear Mr. Avans
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill in 0.18 acre of wetlands for
residential fill on your property in Pamlico County, as you described in your application received by the Division
of Water Quality on June 23, 2000. After reviewing your application, we have determined that this fill is -covered
by General Water Quality Certification Number 3287. This approval is also valid for the Tar-Pamlico River Buffer
Rules (15A NCAC 2B .0233). This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 39 when it is
issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits
before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge
and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this approval will expire when the accompanying 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 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 total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed
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 and the additional condition listed
below.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You
must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition which
conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O.
Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask
for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act.
If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-9646.
Sincerely,
Kerr T. Stevens
