APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
Mr. John Walsh
333 Travistock Drive
Medford, NJ 08055
Dear Mr. Walsh:
You have our approval to place fill material in 0.0063 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of
constructing a home at Lot 3, Section C, Lockwoods Folly Township, as you described in your
application dated 28 May 1996. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is
covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 2733. This certification allows you to use
Nationwide Permit Number 18 when it is 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. A deed
restriction shall be placed on this lot to prevent future fill. 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 60 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,
Pr stop 11abri P.E.
