Dear Mr. Chalmers:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to fill 0.03 acres of wetlands
and 75 linear feet of stream in order to construct a road for the proposed subdivision as
described in your application dated January 26, 2007. After reviewing your application, we
have decided this fill is below the threshold for written authorization as long as all conditions of
General Water Quality Certification Number 3631 are met. This certification may also be
viewed on our website at http:/lh2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. This Certification allows you to
use the Nationwide 18 Permit when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers.
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. 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.
Conditions of Certification:
1. 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.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and
may result in criminal and/or civil penalties. This Certification shall become null and void
unless the above conditions and the General Certifications are made conditions of the Federal
404 and/or Coastal Area Management Act Permit.
