DEM Project #92113
Upon review of your request for Water Quality Certification
to place fill material in 1.00 acres of farmed wetlands for
hog lagoon construction located at SR 1710 in Duplin County, we
have determined that the proposed fill can be covered by General
Water Quality Certification No. 2671 issued January 21, 1992. A
copy of the General Certification is attached. This

of Engineers' Nationwide Permit No. 26.
If you have any questions, please contact John Dorney
at 919/733-5083.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Miller:
Re: Welland Permit for Hog Lagoon

'I Fm-ca, P11.1).
Director
On 2 March 1992 we received an application from you for 401
Water Quality Certification for your above mentioned project. We
have been informed that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers will
require an individual permit for this activity. If this occurs,
processing of a 401 Certification at this time would be
premature. Therefore, I plan to take no further action on this
project until the Corps of. Engineers makes this decision.
Please call me at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions.

DATE: April 16, 1992
SUBJECT: 401 Water Quality Certification for Michael K. Miller, wetlands associated
with Little Limestone Creek, Duplin County, North Carolina.
Professional biologists from our staff have reviewed the subject 401 water quality
certification and are familiar with the subject area. This correspondence is provided in
accordance with certain provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401,
as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.).
The applicant, Michael K. Miller, proposes to construct a hog lagoon in wetlands
associated with Little Limestone Creek. The excavation for the lagoon will impact a total
of 1 acre.
We feel that the excavation and drainage caused by this project will have serious
negative impacts to fish and wildlife resources. In addition, overflow of hog lagoons into
wetland areas will be detrimental to water quality in the area. We feel that the proposed
lagoon should be located outside any wetland areas and that certification be denied.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this application. If we can
provide further assistance, please call on us.

DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY
WILMINGTON DISTRICT, CORPS OF ENGINEERS
P.O. BOX 1890
WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA 28402-1890
IN REPLY REFER TO April 29, 1992
Regulatory Branch
Action ID. 199201270 and Nationwide Permit-4110. 26
(Headwaters and Isolated Waters)
Mr. Michael Miller
Route 1, Box 255K
Beulaville, North Carolina 28518
Dear Mr. Miller:
Reference our letter of April 9, 1992, and your subsequent April 28, 1992,
telephone conversation with Mr. Jeff Richter of my staff concerning your
proposed construction of a waste lagoon and truck turn-around area at a hog
operation adjacent to a tributary of Little Limestone Creek, near Beulaville,
Duplin County, North Carolina.
lw!
On December 2, 1991, Mr. Richter met with you onsite to determine the
presence of wetlands subject to our regulatory jurisdiction pursuant to
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act on this approximate 1.5 acre tract.
Mr. Richter determined that about half of this site did not meet our
definition of wetlands, and thus stated that no authorization from this office
would be required for work performed in this area. Your request of
February 28, 1992, stated that a waste lagoon was to be constructed on this
site. However, your recent telephone conversation with Mr. Richter revealed
that you have talked with Mr. Johnny Lanier of the Duplin County Soil
Conversation Service and will construct the lagoon on the area that is not
wetlands. The proposed turn-around will be situated in the wetland area,
impacting about; e`.`t acre.
Mr. Richter has determined that this area is located in the headwaters of
the Little Limestone Creek tributary. Because less than one acre of wetlands
will be impacted, and work in wetlands will not be a part of the waste lagoon,
your work can be authorized by our Nationwide Permit No. 26.
For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program, Title 33,
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in the Federal
Register on November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits. Authorization was
provided, pursuant to section 404 of the Clean Water Act, for discharges of
dredged or fill material into headwaters and isolated waters provided:
a. the discharge does not cause the loss of more than 10 acres of waters
of the United States;
Y
-2-
b. the permittee notifies the District Engineer if the discharge would
cause the loss of waters of the United States greater than one acre in
accordance with the "Notification" general condition. For discharges in
special aquatic sites, including wetlands, the notification must also include
a delineation of affected specific aquatic sites, including wetlands; and
c. the discharge, including all attendant features, both temporary and
permanent, is part of a single and complete project.
Your work is authorized by this nationwide permit provided it is
accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions. This
nationwide permit does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any
required State or local approval. Please be aware that impacts to greater
than one third of an acre of wetlands located in headwaters may require
authorization from the North Carolina Division of Environmental Management in
the form of a 401 Water Quality Certification. You may discuss this matter
further with Mr. John Dorney in Raleigh at telephone [phone] or Mr. Jim
Gregson in Wilmington at [phone].
This verification will be valid for 2 years from the date of this letter
unless the nationwide authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. Also,
this verification will remain valid for the 2 years if, during that period,
the nationwide permit authorization is reissued without modification or the
activity complies with any subsequent modification of the nationwide permit
authorization. If during the 2 years, the nationwide permit authorization
expires or is suspended or revoked, or is modified, such that the activity
would no longer comply with the terms and conditions of the nationwide permit,
activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under
contract to commence in reliance upon the nationwide permit will remain
authorized provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the date of
the nationwide permit's expiration, modification or revocation, unless
discretionary authority has been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify,
suspend, or revoke the authorization.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Richter, Wilmington Field
Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone [phone].
Sincerely,
G. Wayne Wright
Chief, Regulatory Branch

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Dorney, Division of Environmental Management
Department of EH&NR
FROM: Richard B. Hamilton owl /61
Assistant Director
DATE: May 28, 1992
SUBJECT: 401 Water Quality Certification for William K.
Evans, wetlands associated with Northeast Cape
Fear River, Duplin County, North Carolina.
V r.
3 199?_
The Wildlife Resources Commission has reviewed the subject
document and professional biologists from our staff are familiar with
the habitat values of the project area. Our comments are provided in
accordance with certain provisions of the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.),
the North Carolina Environmental Policy Act (G.S. 113A-1 et seq., as
amended; 1 NCAC 25), and the Coastal Area Management Act ( G.S. 113
A-100 through 113A-128).
The applicant, William K. Evans, is requesting 401 water quality
certification to excavate 3 acres of wetlands to construct an
airstrip. The construction will follow an existing road. Wetlands
lie on either side of the road and the applicant proposes to K-G the
vegetation and grass the area.
As proposed, we cannot support the destruction of wetlands for
airstrip construction. Wetlands provide valuable wildlife habitat
and water purification and filtering properties. We ask that the
certification be denied.
Thank your for opportunity to comment on this project. If we
can be of further assistance, please contact us.
