Nf~TLANDS AND STORMWATER BRANCH
On March 12, 2008, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated February 28,
2008 for the above referenced project. The DWQ has determined that your application was incomplete
and/or provided inaccurate information as discussed below. Please provide the following so that we may
continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
® Incorrect permitting fee amount. Your check # 243 1 1 7508 for $ 475 is herein enclosed for fee
correction. DWQ does not retain any payment unless it is in the correct amount. You may
remit the original check with another one for the outstanding $95 or you may submit one new
check for the full amount.
Please note that beginning July 1, 2007, the N.C. General Assembly passed an increase for
application fees for all regulatory programs administered by DWQ. The director of DWQ
determined that the fee increase would specifically become effective for the 401 Program on
September 1, 2007. Applications received as of September 1, 2007 with insufficient funds to
meet the legislation will be return.
The fee for applications is $240 for projects impacting less than an acre of wetland and less
than 150 linear feet of streams whether intermittent or perennial). For projects impacting one
or more acres of wetland or 150 or more feet of streams (whether intermittent or perennial),
the fee is $570.
Please contact the DWQ within three weeks of the date of this letter to verify that you have received this
letter and that you remain interested in continuing to pursue permitting of your project and will be
providing the DWQ the requested information at a later date. Please contact this office in writing. If we
do not hear from you within three weeks, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue this project
and we will consider the project as returned.
