APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Ms. Taylor:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to impact
2200 linear feet (If) of Little Sugar Creek in order to conduct the subject stream enhancement project in
Mecklenburg County, as described in your application received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on July
27, 2006. 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. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in wetlands and waters is unavoidable,
