North Carolina. The pond is to be created,by the construction of
an earthen dam and is to 'impound less than '2 acre of wetland.
Downstream flows are to be.maintaind throughout project
construction.
For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory
Program, Title 33, Code of Fede;ral'Regulations (CFR), Part 330,
published in the Federal Register on November 13, 1986, lists
nationwide permits. Authorization' was provided for discharges of
dredged or fill material into non-tidal rivers, streams, and their
lakes and impoundments, including adjacent wetlands, that are.
located above the headwaters and other non-tidal waters of the
United States, including adjacent wetlands, that are not a part of
a surface tributary system to interstate waters or navigable
waters of the United States.
Your work is authorized by nationwide permit provided it is
accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions.
Please be aware that this authorisation does not relieve you of
the responsibility to obtain any required State or local approval.
