342 Eplee Lane
Marion, NC 28752
Subject Property: Lot# 64, The Arbor subdivision, Phase III
Dear Mr. Smith:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
within or otherwise impact approximately 0.003 acres of waters on Lake James for the purpose of
installing rip rap to stabilize approximately 76 feet of shoreline, as described within your application
dated August 16, 2003. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts are covered
by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3373
(GC3373). The Certification(s) allows you to use Regional General Permit No. 198200030 when issued
by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). In addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with
any other required federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not
limited to) Erosion and Sediment 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. 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. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.
Conditions:
1. This project is for the installation of rip rap to prevent further erosion of the property due to
wave action.
2. The use of mechanical equipment on the beach must be minimized. Equipment and materials
may be offloaded to the beach at the bulkhead site, but steps must be taken to keep all
equipment out of the reservoir.
3. Upon completion of all work approved within the 401 Water Quality Certification or applicable
Buffer Rules, and any subsequent modifications, the applicant is required to return the attached
certificate of completion to the 401/Wetlands Unit, North Carolina Division of Water Quality,
1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650.
