Martin, Governor George T Everett, Ph.D. William W. Cobey, Jr., Secretary July 15 , 1991 Director CERTIFIED MAIL RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED Mr. James Powell Powell-Phillips Post Office Box 616 Beaufort, North Carolina 28516 Dear Mr. Powell: The Division of Environmental Management issued a 401 Water Quality Certification to you on 16 April 1991 for road access for Mr. Raymond Wollard's property in Beaufort, North Carolina. This 401 was issued after a field visit with you, Jim Gregson of our Wilmington Regional office and John Dorney on January 29, 1991. At that meeting, as confirmed in the followup letter from you on 26 February 1991, we agreed dour proposal to fill the entire ` wetland/pond would be modified to only fill for "a driveway across the wetland to access the building portion of the lot" (letter attached). The 401 Certification allows you to fill "0.48 acres of wetlands for road crossings ...it Clearly, the 0.48 acre figure was in error since that amount of fill would fill the entire wetland which was not your intent in your 26 February 1991 letter. The Division of Environmental Management's 401 Certification is valid for your fill of the 0.48 acre as long as the fill is only for road crossing. Therefore, as long as Mr. Woolard does not place any buildings, septic tank, storage sheds or use the property for anything other than a road crossing, the Division of Environmental Management will not pursue legal action. However, if Mr. Woolard does use the 0.48 acres for anything other than a Regional Offices Asheville Fayetteville Mooresville Raleigh Washington Wilmington Winston-Salem 704/251-6208 919/486-1541 704/663-1699 919/733-2314 919/'946-6481 919/395-3900 - 919/761-2351 Pollution Prevention Pays P.O.

Gregson Wilmington Region 1 Office Through: Preston Howard Dave Adkins AJ Wilmington Regional Office ?1>1 Subject: Regional Office Review and Recommendations Revocation of 401 Certification Raymond Woolard Project # 9008-N Carteret County The Wilmington District Corps of Engineers issued Public Notice #CESAW-C090-N-016-0435 on August 23, 1990. The Public Notice stated Mr. Raymond Woolard had applied for a Department of the Army after-the-fact permit to authorize the placement of fill material in wetlands adjacent to the North River, in Beaufort, North Carolina. Mr. Woolard requested a permit to place 2,033 cubic yards of fill material in a 0.45 acre wetland area, 7,700 square feet (0.18 acres) of which had already been filled without a permit. On September 17, 1990, this Office recommended a 401 Certification be issued for the 0.18 acres of wetlands already filled. Certification #2518 was issued on October 1, 1990 for this fill (0.18 acres). Per conversations with Mike Smith with the Corps of Engineers it is the understanding of this Office the applicant refused to sign a 404 Permit which would have allowed the filling of 0.18 acres. On February 26, 1991, the applicant requested a modification to his original proposal (filling 0.45 acres). This latest request was to fill only for a driveway (130' X 20' or 0.06 acres) to access the high ground portion of the lot. On April 16, 1991 a General Certification was issued for the proposed road crossing, however the General Certification was issued for 0.48 acres. On June 21, 1991, this Office was notified that the entire wetland area on the Woolard property had been filled. This was verified by a site inspection on June 25, 1991. Mike Smith (COE) stated on June 21, 1991, that a valid 404 Permit still had not been issued for this project. Aw- 9008-N.JUN June 26, 1991 Page Two . It is recommended both of the 401 Certifications issued for this site be revoked based on the following considerations: 1. The applicant refused to accept a 404 Permit prepared in accordance with the 401 Certification. 2. The latest request (February 26, 1991) was to fill an area for a driveway (130' X 20') to access the high ground on the site. 3. The most recent Certification was issued as a General Certification to qualify the applicant for NWP 26 when in fact the project did not qualify for a Nationwide Permit. As the project is considered adjacent 404 wetlands, it can not qualify for a Nationwide Permit. 4. The site investigation of June 25, 1991, revealed the applicant has filled in excess of the 20' X 130' which was requested. The entire wetland area was filled without a 404 Permit. It is further recommended the Corps of Engineers require the applicant to return the area to its original condition until such time as a 404 Permit is issued for the 20' X 130' driveway. If additional comment is necessary, or if we can assist in this matter; please advise. JHG:9008-N.JUN cc: Wilmington Regional Office Files Central Files Mike Smith (Corps of Engineers) r .

That silt fences and other erosion controls be in place prior to any earthen movement in the area of the wetlands. 2. That all fill material be from a clean upland source, free from any toxic material. 3. That the turbidity in the water not exceed 25 NTU due to the project. 4. That the side slope of the filled area be stabilized with vegetation as soon as possible to prevent erosion. This office has no objection to the project as proposed.
