APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
Bear Garden, Inc.
Philip Harrington
PO Box 2232
Elizabeth City, NC 27906
Dear Mr. Harrington:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place
fill material in 0.10 acres of wetlands and/or streams for the purpose of a sand mine expansion at Pitts
Chapel Sand Mine, as you described in your application dated November 9, 1998. After reviewing your
application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3106.
This certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 18 when the Corps of Engineers issues it.
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. 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 new application
except as modified below. If you change your project, you must notify us and 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. 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
00506(h) (6) and (7). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached
certification and any additional conditions listed below.
1. Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all lots with remaining jurisdictional
wetlands and waters or areas within 50 feet of all streams and ponds to notify the state in order to assure
compliance for future wetland and/or water impact. These mechanisms shall be put in place within 30
days of the date of this letter or the issuance of the 404 Permit (whichever is later).
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 that 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.
