Dear Mr. Johnson:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions (WQC # 3400) to conduct the
following activity at your property located at 7601 Masonboro Sound Road, in New Hanover County.
This approval allows you to:
1). Maintenance dredge the existing boat basin (40' X 140' X -3') and access channel
(450' X 25' X -3'), expand existing basin into highground 50', and construct a 320 LF bulkhead
on the north and west sides of the basin.
2). Construct a pier, boathouse, 3 boadifts, a boat ramp, and a floating dock system.
3). Excavate 4,182 square feet (0.096 acres) of 404 wetlands associated with the expansion of the
boat basin.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your CAMA application
received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on February 28, 2003. After reviewing your
application, we have determined that General Water Quality Certification Number 3400 covers this
activity. This Certification allows you to use your CAMA Permit when the NC Division of Coastal
Management issues it. Please keep in mind that there may be additional Federal, State or Local
regulations applicable to your project, such as (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non-
Discharge and Water Supply Watershed regulations and Coastal Stormwater. In addition, this approval
will expire when the accompanying CAMA Permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General
Certification.

application received by the Division of Coastal Management on February 14, 2003. If you change or
modify your project, you must notify the Division (DWQ) 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. If total
wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be
required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification and the additional conditions listed below:
