After reviewing your application, we have determined that this project is covered by Water Quality General Certification Number 3495, which can be viewed on our web site at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetiands. The General Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 27 once it is issued to you by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Please note that you should get any other federal, state or local permits before proceeding with your project, including those required by (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-Discharge, and Water Supply Watershed regulations. The above noted Certification will expire when the associated 404 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 in writing, and you may be required to send us a new application for a new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of the Certification and approval letter; and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. In addition to the requirements of the certification, you must also comply with the following conditions: 1. The Mooresville Regional Office shall be notified in writing once construction at the approved impact areas has commenced. 2. Storm water discharge structures at this site shall be constructed in a manner such that the potential receiving streams (of the discharge) will not be impacted due to sediment accumulations, scouring or erosion of the stream banks. 3. No waste, spoils, solids, or fill of any kind shall be placed in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the Preconstruction Notification application. All construction activities associated with this project shall meet, and/or exceed, those requirements specified in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Manual and shall be conducted so that no violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur. 4. Sediment and erosion control devices shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the maximum extent practicable.
