APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Mr. Richard B. Self, County Manager
Johnston County
Post Office Box 1049
Smithfield, NC 27577
Dear Mr. Self:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material in 0.24 acres of
wetlands or waters for the purpose of constructing water lines at Clayton, Cleveland and Wilson Mills Water
District, as you described in your application dated September 25, 1997. After reviewing your application, we
have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3101 This Certification
allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 12 when it is issued by the Corps of Engineers. 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 or CAMA 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 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.
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 Dorney at 919-733-1786.
Sincerely,
A. Preston Howard, Jr. P.E.

Raleigh, NC 27615-6846
The purpose of this letter is to request a Nationwide Permit 12, and a Section 401 Water Quality
Certification for the projects known as Clayton, Cleveland, and Wilson Mills Water Districts
Water System Improvements. The projects, owned by Johnston County are in western Johnston
County, NC. The project sites are shown on the enclosed maps.
It will be necessary to impact 0.24 acres (see maps) of jurisdictional wetlands above and below
headwaters for the placement of the proposed water lines. Wetlands are classified as headwaters
forests, alluvial forests, ditch/channels, or alluvial forest/bottomland hardwood forests. See the
enclosed wetland table and impact key for locations, sizes, and types of wetlands that are to be
impacted. Impacts are shown in detail on attached maps and
Please call if you have questions or require further information. If you intend to perform a site
visit please call and we will arrange for someone to accompany you.
