Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification (GC3641)
Dear Mr. Griffin:
The Washington Regional Office received your application for a CAMA Major Permit from the Division of Coastal Management on
October 13, 2009. The impacts proposed are to place a 12" x 35' long PVC diffuser pipe on the river bottom in +11.5 feet of water
anchored with 18 precast concrete anchors as described in your application. This Certification can also be found on line at:
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/certs.htm1. You are authorized to proceed with your project as proposed under General Water
Quality Certification (WQC) # 3641 (enclosed). This Certification allows you to use the CAMA Major Permit when the Division
of Coastal Management issues it. Written concurrence from the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) is not required provided that you
can meet all of the conditions of the General Water Quality Certification.
If at anytime during construction of your project you determine that you cannot meet these conditions or if there are any additional
impacts to wetlands or water quality not described in your application, you must contact this office immediately. If you have any
questions concerning this matter, please contact Roberto Scheller of this Office at (252)-948-3940.
Sincerely,
For Coleen H. Sullins
