Request for Section 404 & 401 authorization
Activity Located in New Hanover County, NC
Dear Mr. Towles:
The North Carolina Division of Coastal Management has reviewed the above-referenced Pre-Construction
Notification Application for a Nationwide Permit dated December 1, 2003, pursuant to Section 307 of the Coastal Zone
Management Act of 1972 as amended. Based upon our review, we have determined that the proposed activity is not
inconsistent with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program provided the following conditions are met:
The activity described in the above-referenced application is for the issuance of a U.S. Army Corp of Engineers
Nationwide Permit, Number 18, under 33 CFR Part 330. Any modification of your proposed activity, or change in
the Nationwide Permit Number that you are seeking, will require an additional review for consistency by this
office.
2. Since the activity that you propose involves impacts to waters and/or wetlands, a 401 Water Quality Certification
must be obtained from the North Carolina Division of Water Quality.
This letter does not relieve you of the responsibility to insure that all other State authorization and/or permit
requirements are met prior to implementation of the project. Although the current project is outside of CAMA Areas of
Environmental Concern, future development on this property may require CAMA permits. Please feel free to contact me
at [phone] if you have any questions or need further assistance.
Si cerely,
