Dear Mr. Miller-
You have our authorization, in accordance with the conditions listed below, to impact 1050 square feet
(ft) of Zone 1 of the protected buffer of the Catawba River on the subject property as described within your
application received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on July 6, 2010 and as discussed with Mr. Alan
Johnson of the Mooresville Regional Office. In addition, you should obtain any other required federal, state or
local permits before you proceed with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control.
This authorization shall expire five years from the date of this authorization. This authorization is only
valid for the purpose and design that you described in your approved application. If you change your project,
you must notify DWQ and you may be required to reapply for a new authorization. If the property is sold, the
new owner must be given a copy of this authorization and is thereby responsible for complying with all
conditions. For this authorization to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed below:
1. The Mooresville Regional Office shall be notified in writing once construction at the approved impact
areas has commenced.
2. Lake access is limited to 50 If of shoreline.
3. Silt fence shall be properly trenched and installed along the perimeter of the site.
4. At completion of work at day's end the site shall be "stabilized".
5. Staging shall occur, and any spoil, debris shall be stockpiled, outside of Zone 1 and properly controlled to
prevent runoff/debris from entering the lake.
6. All storm water shall be directed as diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected
lake/stream buffer and will not re-concentrate before discharging into the lake/stream as identified within
15A NCAC 2B.0243(5).
