FROM:

We have completed our review of the revised project
for Lake Waccamaw State Park as shown in your letter of
February 10, 1989 to Mr. Richter, U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers. The scope of this project has now been reduced
to the point that the wetland impacts have minimized and are
acceptable to this Section. As we discussed earlier, the
Water Quality Certification No. 1717, issued on May 10,
1984, covers the fill proposed in this project. It will not
be necessary to revise the Certification.

We appreciate your patience in awaiting our decision on
this matter.

PUBLIC NOTICE

THE NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT, DIVISION OF PARKS AND RECREATION, 512 North Salisbury Street,
Raleigh, North Carolina 27611, has applied for a Department of the Army
permit TO PLACE FILL MATERIAL IN WETLANDS ADJACENT LAKE WACCAMAW ASSOCIATED
WITH CONSTRUCTION OF AN ACCESS ROAD AND A PARKING AREA, ENLARGEMENT OF A
PARKING AREA AND ESTABLISHMENT OF A WELL SITE, LAKE WACCAMAW STATE PARK,
Columbus County, North Carolina.

The following description of the work is taken from data provided by the
applicant and from observations made during an onsite visit by a
representative of the Corps of Engineers. Plans submitted with the
application show the proposed enlargement of a 90-foot-wide, l30-foot-long
(0.27 acre) parking lot to 140-foot-wide and 230-foot-Iong (0.74 acre); the
constuction of an approximate 40-Eoot-wide, 400-foot-long (0.37 acre) access
road to a new highground parking area; and the establishment of a well site.
Wetlands are to be filled to expand the parking area; they are to be crossed
by the access road to reach the new parking area, and the well site is in
wetlands. Approximately 0.85 acre of wetlands would be filled as a result of
the proposed work. All fill material is to be provided from a North Carolina
Division of Highways' borrow area. The purpose of the work is to provide for
and improve public recreational facilities. Plans showing the work are
included with this public notice.

The State of North Carolina will review this public notice to determine
the need for the applicant to obtain any required State authorization. No
Department of the Army permit will be issued until the coordinated State
viewpoint on the proposal has been received and reviewed by this agency, nor
will a Department of the Army permit be issued until the North Carolina
Division of Environmental Management has determined the applicability of a
Water Quality Certificate as required by PL 92-500.

This application i8 being considered pursuant to Section 404(b) of the
Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). Any person may request, in writing within

The District Engineer has consulted the latest published version of the
National Register of Historic Places for the presen~e or absence of registered
properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein, and
this worksite is not registered property or property listed as being eligible
for inclusion in the Register. Consultation of the National Register
constitutes the extent of cultural resource investigations by the District
Engineer, and he is otherwise unaware of the presence of such resources.
Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistorical, or historical
data may be lost or destroyed by work under the requested permit.

The District Engineer has determined, based on a review of data furnished
by the applicant and onsite observations, that the activity will not affect
species, or their critical habitat, designated as endangered or threatened
pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1q73.

The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of
the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity
and its intended use on the public interest. Evaluation of the probable
impacts which the proposed actlvity may have on the public interest requires a
careful weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each particular
case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments, The
decision whether to authorize a proposal, and if so the conditions under which
it will be allowed to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome of the.
general balancing process. That decision should reflect the national concern
for both protection and utilization of important resources. All factors which
may be relevant to the proposal must be considered including the cumulative
effects thereof. Among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general
environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values,
flood hazards and flood plain values (in accordance with Executive Order
11988), land use, navigation, shore erosion and accretion, recreation, water
supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber
production, mineral needs, considerations of property ownership, and, in
general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving the
placement of dredged or fill materials in waters of the United States, a
permit will be denied if the discharge that would be authorized by such permit
would not comply with the Environmental Protection Agencie~' 404(b)(1)
guidelines, Subject to the preceding sentence and any other applicable
guidelines or criteria, a permit will be granted unless the Distrlct Engineer
determines that it would be contrary to the public interest.

Generally, the decision whether to issue this Department of the Army
permit will not be made until the North Carolina Division of Environmental
Management (OEM) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The DEM considers whether or not the
proposed activity will comply with Sections 301, 302, 306, and 307 of the
Clean Water Act. The application and this public notice for the Department of
the Army permit serves as application to the OEM for certification.

Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be
reviewed at the offices of the Environmental Operations Section, North
Carolina Division of Environmeatal Management, Salisbury Street, Archda1e
Building, Raleigh, North Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished
to any person requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs.

The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management plans to take
final action in the issuance of the Clean Water Act certification on or after
January 16, 1989.

All perqons desiring to make comments regarding the application for Clean
Water Act certification should do so in writing delivered to the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Post Office Box 27687, Raleigh,

MEMORANDUM

From:

Carol Tingley
Parks Environmental Analyst
Division of Parks and Recreation

Donald safr~
Jim Gregson : ~
Wilmington Regional Office

To:

Through:

Preston Howard Original Sianed By
Wilmington Regional Offic~. PRE~TON HOWARD. JR

Subject:

Proposed Wetland Fill
Lake Waccamaw State Park
Columbus County

The Wilmington Regional Office received your COE Public Notice on
December 30, 1988. A preliminary review indicates that a 401 Water Quality
Certification will be required from our division due to the proposed wetland
fill. A 401 certification is required prior to issuance of a CAMA or 404
permit,

Because of the many essential functions wetlands provide, including
purification of surface and groundwater, any loss of wetlands as the result of
filling activities is viewed by this Office as degradation of water quality,
and potentially, a loss of these essential functions wetlands provide.

Your project, as proposed, will result in the loss of wetland areas. As
a result, this office is requesting the following additional information be
submitted within 30 days upon receipt of this letter: an alternate proposal
that will eliminate or reduce the proposed fill in wetland areas; or submit an
explanation of why such reductions are not possible and what mitigating
factors we should consider.

Until this office receives your response, your proposal for a 401
Certification will be considered incomplete.

Should you have any questions concerning this matter, please contact Jim
Gregson, Donald Safrit or me at [phone].

Dear Mr. Richter:

Enclosed please find a revised drawing of our proposed project at
Lake Waccamaw State Park in Columbus County. We have deleted the
portion of the project inVOlving an extension of the existing
road and the construction of a new parking lot. We are still
proposing to expand the existing parking lot and construct a new
toilet building and well.

Please process this permit application as revised. Let me know
if you need additional information.

Sincerely, .

SAWC089-N-024-0102

December 22, 1988

PUBLIC NOTICE

THE NORTH CAROLINA DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT, DIVISION OF PARKS AND RECREATION, 512 North Salisbury Street,
Raleigh, North Carolina 27611, has applied for a Department of the Army
permit TO PLACE FILL MATERIAL IN WETLANDS ADJACENT LAKE WACCAMAW ASSOCIATED
WITH CONSTRUCTION OF AN ACCESS ROAD AND A PARKING AREA, ENLARGEMENT OF A
PARKING AREA AND ESTABLISHMENT OF A WELL SITE, LAKE WACCAMAW STATE PARK,
Columbus County, North Carolina.

The following description of the work is taken from data provided by the
applicant and from observations made during an onsite visit by a
representative of the Corps of Engineers. Plans submitted with the
application show the proposed enlargement of a 90-foot-wide, 130-foot-Iong
(0.27 acre) parking lot to 140-foot-wide and 230-foot-Iong (0.74 acre); the
constuction of an approximate 40-Eoot-wide, 400-foot-Iong (0.37 acre) access
road to a new highground parking area; and the establishment of a well site.
Wetlands are to be filled to expand the parking area; they are to be crossed
by the access road to reach the new parking area, and the well site is in
wetlands. Approximately 0.85 acre of wetlands would be filled as a result of
the proposed work. All fill material is to be provided from a North Carolina
Division of Highways' borrow area. The purpose of the work is to provide for
and improve public recreational facilities. Plans showing the work are
included with this public notice.

The State of North Carolina will review this public notice to determine
the need for the applicant to obtain any required State authorization. No
Department of the Army permit will be issued until the coordinated State
viewpoint on the proposal has been received and reviewed by this agency, nor
will a Department of the Army permit be issued until the North Carolina
Division of Environmental Management has determined the applicability of a
Water Quality Certificate as required by PL 92-500.

This application Is being considered pursuant to Section 404(b) of the
Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). Any person may request, in writing within
the comment period specified in the notice, that a public hearing be held to
consider this application. Requests for public hearing shall state, with
particularity, the reasons for holding a public hearing.

. "": ~

The District Engineer has consulted the latest published version of the
National Register of Historic Places for the presence or absence of registered
properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein, and
this worksite is not registered property or property listed as being eligible
for inclusion in the Register. Consultation of the National Register
constitutes the extent of cultural resource investigations by the District
Engineer, and he is otherwise unaware of the presence of such resources.
Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistorical, or historical
data may be lost or destroyed by work under the requested permit.

The District Engineer has determined, based on a review of data furnished
by the applicant and onsite observations, that the activity will not affect
species, or their critical habitat, designated as endangered or threatened
pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973.

The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of
the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity
and its intended use on the public interest. Evaluation of the probable
impacts which the proposed activity may have on the public interest requires a
careful weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each particular
case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. The
decision whether to authorize a proposal, and if so the conditions under which
it will be allowed to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome of the.
general balancing process. That decision should reflect the national concern
for both protection and utilization of important resources. All factors which
may be relevant to the proposal must be considered including the cumulative
effects thereof. Among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general
environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values,
flood hazards and flood plain values (in accordance with Executive Order
11988), land use, navigation, shore erosion and accretion, recreation, water
supply and conservation, water quality, energy needs, safety, food and fiber
production, mineral needs, considerations of property ownership, and, in
general, the needs and welfare of the people. For activities involving the
placement of dredged or fill materials in waters of the United States, a
permit will be denied if the discharge that would be authorized by such permit
~ould not comply with the Environmental Protection Agencies' 404(b)(1)
guidelines. Subject to the preceding sentence and any other applicable
guidelines or criteria, a permit will be granted unless the District Engineer
determines that it would be contrary to the public interest.

Generally, the decision whether to issue this Department of the Army
permit will not be made until the North Carolina Division of Environmental
Management (DEM) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The DEM considers whether or not the
proposed activity will comply with Sections 301, 302, 306, and 307 of the
Clean Water Act. The application and this public notice for the Department of
the Army permit serves as application to the DEM for certification.

, .

Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be
reviewed at the offices of the Environmental Operations Section, North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Salisbury Street, Archda1e
Building, Raleigh, North Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished
to any person requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs.

The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management plans to take
final action in the issuance of the Clean Water Act certification on or after
January 16, 1989.

All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for Clean
Water Act certification should do so in writing deli~ered to the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Post Office Box 27687, Raleigh,
North Carolina 27611-1687, on or before December 9, 1989, Attention:
Mr. William Mills.

Written comments pertinent to the proposed work, as outlined above, will
be received in this office, Attention: Mr. Jeffrey Richter, until 4:15 p.m.,
January 23, 1989, or telephone (919) 25L-4636.

Dear Mr. Mills:

Enclosed is the application of the North Carolina DivisIon of
Parks and Recreation for Department of the Army authorization and
a State Water Quality CertIfication to place fill material in
wetlands adjacent Lake Wacammaw associated with construction of an
access road and a parking area, enlargement of a parking area and
establishment of a well site, Lake Wacammaw State Park, Columbus
County, North Carolina. Your receipt of this letter verifies your
acceptance of a valid request for certification in accordance with
Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our administrative regulations.

We are considering authorizing the proposed activity pursuant
to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have determined that
a water quality certification may be required under the provisions
of Section 401 of the same law. A Department of the Army permit
will not be granted until the certification has been obtained or
waived.

In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days
after receipt of a request for certification is a reasonable time
for State action. Therefore, if you have not acted on the request
by February 23, 1989, the District Engineer will deem that waiver
has occurred.

Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Jeffrey Richter,
telephone [phone].

Sincerely,

C1~~~
