Dear Ms. Chapman:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material within or

replace and repair a bulkhead as described in your application received by the Division of Water Quality
(DWQ) 401 Oversight/Express Review Permitting Unit on April 6, 2010. After reviewing your
application, we have determined that the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) General Water Quality
Certification Number 3641 covers these water impacts. This Certification allows you to General Permit
No. 198000291 when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). In addition, you should get or
otherwise comply with any other federal, state and local requirements before you go ahead with your

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
21-1.0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and
any additional conditions listed below.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:
1. Impacts Approved
