Subject: APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
7800 Tuckaseegee Road Project
Dear Mr. Dannegger:
You have our approval, in accordance with the General Certification and those
conditions listed below, for the purpose proposed in your application dated March 12, 2019 and
received by the Division of Water Resources (the Division) on March 26, 2019. After reviewing
your application, we have determined that this project is covered by Water Quality General
Certification Number 4139 which can be viewed on our web site at
https://deg. nc.gov/about/divisions/water-resou rces/water-resources-permits/wastewater-
branch/401-wetlands-buffer-permits/401-401-isolated-wetlands-waters-program The General
Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit Number 39 once it is issued to you by the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers (COE). 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. It is advised that all conditions of the
Certification are reviewed prior to initiation of the project. In addition to the requirements of the
Certification, you must also comply with the following conditions:
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 total wetland fills for this
project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, or of total impacts to streams (now or in
the future) exceed 300 linear feet, compensatory mitigation may be required. 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. 15A NCAC
02H .0506 and 15A NCAC 02H .0507

approved impact areas has commenced. 15A NCAC 02H .0502 (e)

401 WATER QUALITY CERTIFICATION
SUMMARY OF PERMITTED IMPACTS AND MITIGATION REQUIREMENTS
In accordance with 15A NCAC 2 H .0500, Clarius Partners has permission as outlined
below to impact 396 linear feet of stream in order to proceed with the facility in Mecklenburg
County, North Carolina. All activities associated with these authorized impacts must be
conducted with the conditions listed in the attached certification. THIS CERTIFICATION IS
NOT VALID WITHOUT THE ATTACHMENTS.
COMPENSATORY MITIGATION REQUIREMENT: Division of Mitigation Services (DMS)
LOCATION:
COUNTY:
BASIN/SUBBASIN
Impacts:
396 linear feet of stream
Tuckaseegee Road
Mecklenburg
Catawba (03050101)
As required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506, and the conditions of this certification, you are required to
compensate for the above impacts through the restoration, creation, enhancement or
preservation of wetlands as outlined below prior to conducting any activities that impact or
degrade the waters of the state.
Note: Linear foot requirements proposed to be mitigated through the DMS must be rounded to
the nearest foot and acreage requirements must be rounded to one -quarter acre increments
according to 15 2r .0503(b).
Mitigation:
289 linear feet total of stream required (1:1)
Mitigation:
289 linear feet of stream by the DMS required for the 401 Water Quality Certification. In
correspondence dated March 12, 2019 the DMS indicated that up to 396 linear feet of stream
mitigation would be conducted by DMS if available within the cataloging unit. More may be
required if mitigation is required outside the unit.
One of the options you have available to satisfy the compensatory mitigation requirements is
through the payment of a fee to the DMS per NCAC 2R .0503. If you choose this option, please
sign this form and mail it to the Ecosystem Enhancement Fund at the address listed below. An
invoice for the appropriate amount of payment will be sent to you upon receipt of this form.
