APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and Catawba River Buffer Rules with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Mowery:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill in 0.004 acre of waters at Lake Wylie in
Mecklenburg County, as you described in your application received by the Division of Water Quality on November 15, 2002,
and in your revised site plan received December 27, 2002. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this work
is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3373, which can be viewed on our web site at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetiands . This Certification allows you to use Regional Permit Number 198200030 when the
Corps of Engineers issues it. This approval is also valid for the Catawba River Mainstem and Lake Buffer Protection Rule
(15A NCAC 2B .0243). 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, Coastal Stormwater, 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 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 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 conditions listed below:
1 Shoreline stabilization measures shall be limited to a maximum height of two feet, and backfill shall not extend more
than three feet from the proposed home;
2. This project is for the installation of a rip-rap bulkhead to prevent further erosion of the property due to wave action.
The use of mechanical equipment on the beach must be minimized;
3. Equipment and materials may be offloaded to the beach at the bulkhead site, but steps must be taken to keep all
equipment out of the reservoir;
4. You are required to return the attached Certification of Completion form to notify DWQ when all work included in the
401 Certification has been completed.
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 150E 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 Alan Johnson in DWQ's Mooresville Regional Office at 704-6637.1699 or Cyndi Karoly in
the Central Office at 919-733-9721. Questions regarding the Catawba Buffer Rules should be directed to Bob Zarzecki in
Raleigh at 919-733-9726.

MEMORANDUM
TO: John R. Dorney, Division of Water Quality
Dept. of Environment and Natural Resources
FROM: Ron Linville, Regional Coordinator/
Habitat Conservation Program
DATE: December 6, 2002
SUBJECT: Review of an application by David Mowery, Shoreline Stabilization,
DWQ#021814, 15904 Riverpointe Drive, Mecklenburg 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 add 50' (long) x 3' (wide) riprap
stabilization to the existing riprap wall along the shoreline. No photographs of the site or project
were included with the documents received by this office although they were referenced as part of
the application.
Concerning shoreline stabilization using riprap, this office prefers the use of a more
"natural" approach to shoreline stabilization. A combination of large riprap 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 should be used in order to
prevent soil from eroding from behind the riprap during high-water and/or wave action.
Minimum class I riprap should be imbedded into the lake bottom to prevent undercutting. We
recommend maintenance or restoration of undisturbed natural shoreline buffers whenever
practicable as mitigation for impacted shoreline habitats and to provide water quality buffers.
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.

Staff noted that the bank of the shoreline is approximately 12"-15" high. Infill (approx. S" - 12") has
already been placed in some areas of the buffer. Further backfilling could be detrimental to the trees
currently located in the buffer area. Staff discussed with the applicant the need to limit the
stabilization to less than two feet in height and to limit backfill to within three feet of the ri rap/alien
block wall,
