Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Melvin:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to modify an existing
permitted subdivision to a 60 single family lot subdivision with amenities, a community pier with a gazebo, alter the
circulation channel size, expand the access channel and add a bulkhead and add a gazebo (no wetland impacts are
proposed with this modification) as described within your CAMA application dated January 5, 2007 with additional
information received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) on
February 22, 2007 and March 27, 2007. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts and the
previous proposed impacts for your original application are covered by General Water Quality Certification Number
3641 (WQC 3641). This Certification can also be found on line at: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/certs.html.
The Certification allows you to use the CAMA Major Permit when issued by the Division of Coastal Management.
In addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required federal, state or local permits before you
go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion and Sediment Control, Non-discharge, and
stormwater regulations. Also, this approval to proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to
waters as depicted in your application shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is 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 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 fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre of wetland or 150 linear feet of stream,
compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). This approval requires you to
follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:
1. Impacts Approved

this Certification are met. No other impacts are approved including incidental impacts:

2. Erosion & Sediment Control Practices
Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications governing the
proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best Management Practices in order to
protect surface waters standards:
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed, installed, operated, and
maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion
Control Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion control measures
must be such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified in the most recent version of the
North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual. The devices shall be maintained on all
construction sites, borrow sites, and waste pile (spoil) projects, including contractor-owned or leased
borrow pits associated with the project.
c. For borrow pit sites, the erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed, operated,
and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the North Carolina Surface Mining
Manual.
d. The reclamation measures and implementation must comply with the reclamation in accordance with
the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
3. No Waste, Spoil, Solids, or Fill of Any Kind
No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas beyond the
footprint of the impacts depicted in the CAMA application. All construction activities, including the design,
installation, operation, and maintenance of sediment and erosion control Best Management Practices, shall be
performed so that no violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur.
4. No Sediment & Erosion Control Measures w/n Wetlands or Waters
Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the maximum extent
practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable,
they shall be removed and the natural grade restored within six months of the date that the Division of Land
Resources has released the project.
5. Wetland Boundary Identification
The wetland boundary must be clearly identified on all lots that have jurisdictional wetlands present as
depicted on the jurisdictional determination map approved by the US Army Corps of Engineers. The
wetland boundary identification (flagging, fencing, etc.) must be maintained on each lot until the lot is sold.
6. Deed Notifications
Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all retained jurisdictional wetlands, waters and
protective buffers in order to assure compliance for future wetland, water and buffer impact. These
mechanisms shall be put in place prior to impacting any wetlands, waters and/or buffers approved for impact
under this Certification Approval and Authorization Certificate. A copy of the recorded document must be
sent to this office at the letterhead address and to Cyndi Karoly at the 401 Oversight and Express Unit,
1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1650, prior to filling the wetlands and stream approved
