After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Numbers 3108 and 3102. These Certifications allow you to use Nationwide Permit Numbers 26 and 13 when the Corps of Engineers issues them. This Certification is also covered by the Neuse River Buffer rules. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Coastal Stormwater, Non-Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 or CAMA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification. 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 send us a new application. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 N. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification. 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. 276 1 1-7447. This certification and its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing. This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Domey at 919-733-1786.

The Bridges Apartments Mr. Dorney and Ms. Manuele: The purpose of this letter is to request authorization of Nationwide Permit 26 for 0.005 acres and Nationwide 13 for 0.004 acres (60 linear feet). The project is located in Granville County east of SR 1108 and south of Hwy 56 near Butner, NC (see Site Vicinity Map). All impacts will result from the fill of jurisdictional waters for a road for residential development (see Site Plan). Impacts are to areas subject to the Neuse Buffer Rules based on a site visit by Mr. Danny Smith of DWQ. The stream is not DWQ significant or Corps "important". A map showing project impacts to jurisdictional areas is enclosed. Wetland acreage impacts as proposed are below the DWQ 1 acre mitigation threshold and 150 linear feet. Stream mitigation should not be required for the proposed impacts. The impacts are below Nationwide permit notification thresholds but we are doing so as a professional courtesy. Permits for future phases will be submitted once detailed plans are prepared. Only one additional road crossing is anticipated but its exact dimensions will not be known until it is designed. Please contact us if you have any questions. Sincerely, Kevin C. Martin 981187 KCM/ sh Note: A package of information including data sheets, a wetland report, sketch map etc. was previously provided to Jean Manuele of the Corps and Danny Smith of DWQ for this project.
