Jordan,
On September 20, 2019, the Division of Water Resources (Division) received your application dated September 20, 2019,
requesting a 401 Water Quality Certification from the Division for the subject project. The Division has determined that
your application is incomplete and cannot be processed. The application is on hold until the following item is addressed:
There are several inconsistent references to the use of a pump around system in the submittal. Section E.1b. of
the PCN states " a pump around will be employed when necessary to avoid working in the wet." The cover letter
states "It is proposed the stream construction occur in the wet..." The erosion control notes on Sheet 0.3 state
"A pump around is not anticipated to be required." Please clearly explain how you plan to meet Condition 11.9 of
General Water Quality Certification 4134, which requires that work in streams be conducted in such a way as to
prevent the flowing stream from contacting the disturbed area. What BMPs will be used to meet this condition?
[15A NCAC 02H .0506(b)(3)]
Pursuant to Title 15A NCAC 02H .0502(c), the applicant shall furnish all of the above requested information for the
proper consideration of the application. If all of the requested information is not received, the Division will be unable to
approve the application and it will be returned.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like to discuss further.
