Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Pastore:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to dredge
around an existing dock and access channel, as described within your CAMA application dated
December 21, 2009 and received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Wilmington Regional Office
(WiRO) on December 22, 2009 and additional information received on January 18, 2010 and February
10, 2010. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts are covered by General
Water Quality Certification Number 3642 (GC 3642). This Certification can also be found on line at:
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/certs.html. The Certifications allows you to use the 404 permit
when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers and the CAMA Major Permit when issued by the
Division of Coastal Management. 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, Non-discharge, and stormwater regulations. Also, this approval to
proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your
application shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is 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 fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed
one acre of wetland or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory mitigation may be required as described
in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in the attached
certification and any additional conditions listed on the following pages.
