you change your project, you must notify us and you maybe required to send us a new

for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation maybe required
as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). This approval shall expire when the
corresponding Nationwide Permit expires or as otherwise provided in the General Certification.
