Dear Mr. Walker:
Carolina Marina
DWQ Project # 06-0137, Ver. 2
New Hanover County
On behalf of the NC DWQ 410/Wetlands Permitting Unit, we respectfully request that you consider
the following comments within your review of the 404 Individual Permit request for the above
referenced property:
1. If the applicant configures the site to resolve the concerns of the Division of Marina Fisheries
concerning the existing water depths and potential adverse impacts to the Primary Nursery
Area, then the DWQ does not have an issue with this project.
2. We would recommend that should this project be permitted under Section 404, that a
condition be included prohibiting dredging within the PNA.
Thank you for your attention. If you have any questions, please contact Amy Chapman or me in our Central
Office in Raleigh at [phone].
Sincerely,
Ian McMillan, Acting Supervisor
401 Oversight/Express Permitting Unit
