Dear Mr. & Ms. Poe:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
within or otherwise impact approximately 0.01 acres of waters and 0.01 acres of protected riparian
buffers on Lake Hickory for the purpose of constructing a wooden seawall to stabilize approximately 300
feet of shoreline, as described within your application dated August 27, 2003. After reviewing your
application, we have decided that the impacts are covered by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3373 (GC3373). The Certification(s) allows you to use
Regional General Permit No. 198200030 when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE).
This letter shall also act as your approved Authorization Certificate for impacts to the protected riparian
buffers per 15A NCAC 2B .0243. In addition, yob should obtain or otherwise comply with any other
required federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited
to) Erosion and Sediment Control and Duke Power regulations and permits. 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. If the
property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter and is
thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.
Conditions:
1. Diffuse Flow
An additional condition is that all stormwater shall be directed as diffuse flow at non-erosive
velocities through the protected stream buffers and will not re-concentrate before discharging
into the stream as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0243(5).
