DWQ Project # 970006
You have our approval to place fill material in 160 feet of shoreline for the purpose of stabilizing the
shoreline at Lot 33, Waterglyn on Lake James, as you described in your application dated 30 December 1996.
After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality
Certification Number 2674. This certification allows you to use Regional Permit Number 030 when it is
issued by the Corps of Engineers.
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 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) (6) and (7). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local
permits before you go ahead with your project. Also this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or
CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification.
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 Domey at 919-733-1786.

Mr. and Mrs. Arthur E. Bonham

Dear Mr. and Mrs. Bonham:
Subject: Proposed shoreline stabilization project along a section of Lake James associated with
the Holiday Shores Subdivision, McDowell County, North Carolina
In your letter of December 6, 1996, you informed us of the subject project. We have reviewed
the project with regard to potential impacts to federally listed endangered and threatened species.
The following comments are provided in accordance with the provisions of Section 7 of the
Endangered Species Act of 1973, as amended (16 U.S.C. 1531-1543) (Act).
According to the permit application attached to your letter, you are proposing to stabilize
approximately 160 linear feet of shoreline along Lake James in the Watemlyn area of the
Holiday Shores subdivision.
The Service has no record of any federally listed endangered or threatened species in the
immediate area of the proposed project. Thus, the Service believes the proposed project will
have "no effect" on federally listed species. In view of this, the Service believes the
requirements under Section 7© of the Act are fulfilled. However, obligations under Section 7 of
the Act must be reconsidered if (1) new information reveals impacts of this identified action
that may affect listed species or critical habitat in a manner not previously considered, (2) this
action is subsequently modified in a manner that was not considered in this review, or (3) a new
species is listed or critical habitat is determined that may be affected by the identified action.
We appreciate the opportunity to review this permit application for potential impacts to federally
listed endangered and/or threatened species. We have assigned our Log No. 4-2-96-129 to this

project. Please refer to this number in all future correspondence directed to us concerning this
matter.
Sincerely,
.?ar Brian P. Cole
State Supervisor
