Dear r ney:
Confirming our telephone conversation today regarding the subject
project, I am enclosing a revised map showing the wetland areas to
remain undisturbed and those to be affected by the development.
Nationwide 14 area remains at 0.38 acres whereas Nationwide 26 is
reduced to 0.71 acres (from 1.98 Ac). Total permit area will be 1.09
Acres (from 1.98 Ac).
The stormwater plan has already been approved for this project
using grassed swales. I am encouraging the developer to consider
directing swales into the two remaining wetlands as we discussed.
Thanks for your assistance.

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
Mr. Dokie Saffo
Old South
3901 Oleander Drive
Wilmington, N.C. 28403
FILE COPY
Dear Mr. Saffo:
You have our approval to place fill material in 1.09 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of road and
lot fill at SR 1492, as you described in your application dated 8 December 1994 and the letter from Mr. Hollis
dated 30 January 1995. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General
Water Quality Certification Numbers 2732 and 2671. These certifications allow you to use Nationwide Permit
Numbers 14 and 26 when they are issued by the Corps of Engineers.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change
your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. For this approval to be
valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification. If possible stormwater should be
directed to flow into wetlands remaining on the site. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local
permits before you go ahead with your project.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing.
You must act within 30 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition
which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of Administrative
Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and its conditions are final and binding
unless you ask for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Environmental Management under Section 401 of the
Clean Water Act. If you. have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-1786.
Sincerely,
r? A. eston Howard, Jr. P. .

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Dorney
Water Quality Section
Division of Environmental Management, DEHNR
FROM: Franklin McBride, Manager 'Z( WAd
Habitat Conservation Program?Ji??
DATE: January 19, 1995
SUBJECT: Old South, Inc. 401 Water Quality Certification request
for residential development in wetland parcels off SR
1492, Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina.
DEM ID: 941132.
Staff biologists with the Wildlife Resources Commission have
reviewed the subject request for certification. A site visit was
made on January 11, 1995. Our comments are provided in
accordance with provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination
Act (48 stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et seq.), and
section 401(b) of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (as amended), and
North Carolina General Statutes (G.S. 113-131 et seq.).
The applicant has applied for Water Quality Certification to
fill a total of 2.36 acres of wetlands for construction of
residences and roads. Project construction was underway at the
time of our site visit, but no erosion control measures were
evident. The wetland acreage is in 3 parcels. A 0.52 acre
parcel near a remnant ditch occurs in the southeast corner of the
tract and is vegetated with sweetgum, water oak, red maple, black
gum, loblolly pine, gallberry and American holly. Just west of
this parcel, a 1.07 acre wetland has been bisected by a road.
Standing water occurs in remaining wetlands on the south side of
the road and vegetation includes wax myrtle, black gum, red
maple, sweet gum and greenbriar. The third wetland, a 0.71 acre
parcel, occurs in the northwestern corner of the property and is
vegetated with water oak, bay, red maple, sweet gum, loblolly
pine, tulip poplar, common reed, gallberry and greenbriar. A
small stream flows through this wetland, indicating a hydraulic
connection to Greenville Sound. Site wetlands appear to be

performing stormwater filtration (water quality) and retention
(flood control) functions. They also provide habitat suitable
for use by woodcock, raccoon, rabbit, opossum, amphibians and
various songbirds.
To reduce the extent of wetland loss and resulting adverse
impacts to wildlife habitat and water quality, we recommend that
certification be conditioned upon the following project
modifications:
1. Avoid filling the 0.71 acre wetland (with stream) in
the northwestern corner of the property.
2. Avoid filling the section of the 1.07 acre wetland on
the south side of the road.
3. Fill only that portion of the 0.52 acre wetland
necessary for house and driveway construction on lot
# 140.
4. Implement an erosion control plan immediately.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project.
If you need to discuss these comments or need additional
assistance, please call Bennett Wynne at [phone].

Dear Mr. Saffo

The Division of Environmental Management, Water Quality Section has reviewed your plans
for the discharge of fill material into 2.36 acres of waters and/or wetlands located at SR 1492 in
New Hanover County for residential roads and lot fill. Based on this review, we have identified
significant uses which would be removed by this project. These uses are water storage, pollutant
removal, wildlife habitat and aquatic life habitat. Furthermore, insufficient evidence is present in our
files to conclude that your project must be built as planned in waters and/or. wetlands. Therefore, we
are moving toward denial of your 401 Certification as required by 15A NCAC 2B.0109. Until we
receive additional information, we are requesting (by copy of this letter) that the U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers and/or the N.C. Division of Coastal Management place your project on administrative hold.
Please provide us with information supporting your position that your project must be
constructed as planned and that you have no practicable alternative to placing fill in these waters
and/or wetlands. Specifically can you construct your residential subdivision without filling the wetland
near lots 102-104 and lots 136-138.7 Any documentation such as maps and narrative that you can
supply to address alternative designs for your project may be helpful in our review of your 401
Certification. Please respond within two weeks of the date of this letter by sending a copy of this
information to me and one copy to our Ms. Stephanie Petter at the Wilmington Regional Office at 127
Cardinal Drive Extension, Wilmington, N.C. 28405-3845.
