Approval Of 401 Quality Certification with
Additional Conditions and Catawba River Buffer Rules
Douglas C. Weir, Jr.
17481 Staysail Court
Cornelius, NC 28031
Dear Mr. Weir:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to impact 0.01 acres of waters
for the purpose of shoreline stabilization at The Point, Lot 820 on Lake Norman as you described in
your application dated November 19, 2002. After reviewing your application, we have decided that
this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3373, which may be viewed on our
website at httu://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. This certification allows you to use General Permit
Number 198200030 when the Corps of Engineers issues it. This approval is also valid for the Catawba
River buffer rules (15A NCAC 2B .0243). 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. 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
except as modified below. 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). This approval shall expire when the
corresponding Nationwide Permit expires or as otherwise provided in the General Certification. For this
approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any
additional conditions listed below.
1. Stormwater shall be directed to flow at non-erosive velocities across the entire protected stream
buffers;
2. No trees shall be removed from Zone 1 of the Catawba Buffer unless they are directly within
the construction access corridor. If trees are removed, at least two species of native forested
vegetation shall be re-established within the construction access or other temporary impact area
occurring in the protected buffer zone within the next growing season following construction
of the project;
3. This project is for the installation of rip rap to prevent further erosion of the property due to
wave action. The use of mechanical equipment on the beach must be minimized;

taken to keep all equipment out of the reservoir;
5. Any disturbance within 50 feet of the shoreline must be done in compliance with the Catawba
River buffer rules;
6. Upon completion of the project, the applicant shall complete and return the enclosed
"Certification of Completion Form" to notify DWQ that all the work included in the 401
Certification has been completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form and
return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the Division of Water Quality.

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

its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.

MEMORANDUM
TO: John R. Dorney, Division of Water Quality
Dept. of Environment and Natural Resources
FROM: Ron Linville, Regional Coordinator
Habitat Conservation Program
DATE: December 9, 2002
SUBJECT: Review of an application by Douglas C. Weir, Shoreline Stabilization,
DWQ#021839, Iredell County
The applicant is requesting 401 Water Quality Certification from the North Carolina
Division of Water Quality. The NCWRC has reviewed information provided by the applicant,
and field biologists on our staff are familiar with habitat values of the project area. These
comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (33 U.S.C.
466 et. seq.) and the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C.
661-667d).
The permit application indicates that the project will install 161 linear feet of riprap
stabilization along the shoreline. No photographs of the site or project were included in the
documents received by this office.
Concerning shoreline stabilization using riprap, this office prefers the use of a more
"natural" approach to shoreline stabilization. A combination of large riprap used to two feet
above normal pool elevation with banks sloped back and vegetated with grass, willows or other
acceptable vegetation create a more "natural" bank. A filter fabric should be used in order to
prevent soil from eroding from behind the riprap during high-water and/or wave action.
Minimum class I riprap should be imbedded into the lake bottom to prevent undercutting. We
recommend maintenance or restoration of undisturbed natural shoreline buffers whenever
practicable as mitigation for impacted shoreline habitats and to provide water quality buffers.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this project. If you have any
questions regarding these comments, please contact me at 336/769-9453.
