Good morning,
North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR): After review of the submitted NWP-14 PCN for the subject
project dated February 13, 2023, and the enclosed Nationwide Permit 14 Water Quality General Certification (GC) 4246,
dated December 18, 2020, it appears that an individual 401 water quality certification (WQC) is required from the
NCDWR for the proposed activities. The ePCN received by our office on February 13, 2023, provided the 9 required
elements for an individual WQC. This permit application/ePCN, dated February 13, 2023 constitutes the Corps initial
receipt of the 401 WQC application. Unless NCDWR is granted a time review extension, a waiver will be deemed to occur
if the NCDWR fails to act on this request for certification within 120 days from the date of the complete 401 request. The
reasonable period of time (RPOT) for you to act on this WQC request is 120 calendar days. The date upon which the
waiver will occur if you fail or refuse to act on the certification is June 13, 2023.
If our assumption is incorrect and this proposed activity does not require an Individual WQC, please respond to this
notification as soon as possible in order for our office to meet the Corps' Nationwide Permit 45-day review requirement.
Applicant/Consultant: Please note, should we finalize our review prior to receiving the 401 WQC, you will receive a
provisional general permit verification from the Corps. Once a 401 WQC is issued or waived by the DWR, the Corps will
provide you with a final general permit verification. Your proposed work shall not commence until after the 401 WQC
has been issued or waived AND until a final general permit verification has been provided to you.
Thank you,
Billy
