described in your application dated March 30, 2007, and received by the Division of Water Quality
(DWQ) on Apri12, 2007, with additional information received from you on June 5, 2007, to construct the
proposed multi-unit, residential subdivision. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the

state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion and
Sediment Control, and Non-discharge 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 1501inear 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
