Dear Mr. Williams:
Donald R. van der Vaart

DW R # 99 -0774 V. 2
Craven County
On April 10, 2015, you submitted a Pre- Construction Notification application requesting a Buffer Authorization
from the Division of Water Resources (Division). The Division has determined that your proposed impacts require
the approvals in the forms of a Water Quality Certification (WQC) in conjunction with the CAMA Major Permit
and General Permit(s) 198000291 issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). This WQC allows you to use
the CAMA Major Permit when the Division of Coastal Management issues their permit. In addition, the requested
buffer authorization is also covered under a Memorandum of Understanding between the Divisions of Water
Resources and Coastal Management. Pursuant to Title 15A NCAC 02H .0507(e), the Division of Water Resources
is unable to approve your application. For the reasons listed above, your application is hereby returned.
Please be aware that you have no authorization under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act and riparian buffer for
this activity and any work done within waters of the state may be a violation of North Carolina General Statutes
and Administrative Code.
Please contact Anthony Scarbraugh at 252- 948 -3924 or anthony.scarbrauehCdncdenr.gov if you have any
questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
��Y
