Dear Mr. and Mrs. Brace:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to stabilize 140 feet
shoreline on Lake James in Burke County. as you described in your application received by the Division of Water Quality
on January 4, 2001. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this action is covered by General Water
Quality Certification Number 3253. This certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 13 when the Corps of
Engineers issues it. 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
Water shed regulations. This approval will expire when the accompanying 404, or CANIA 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 you may be required to 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 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed
below and 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. 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 Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you
have any questions, please telephone John Dorsey at 919-733-9646.
