Re: 0.9 Acre 401/NWP 26 Approval - Eastern Agricultural Center
Dear Mr. Dorney:
Enclosed is a 401/NWP 26 request for the N.C. Department of
Agriculture to fill/disturb 0.9 acres of wetlands in Martin County,
North Carolina. This proposed fill/disturbance will be used for
the construction of an entrance/access road to the proposed Eastern
Agricultural/Equestrian Center. The site is located in the
northeast quadrant of the intersection of SR 1142 (Prison Camp
Road) and SR 1141 (Allen Williams Road).
Thank you for your timely response, and should you have any further
questions, please contact me at your convenience.
Res ectfu ly,
M Erki ett
