Revised Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Squires:
This certification supercedes the 401 certification issued to you on January 31, 2011. In accordance with the
attached conditions and those listed on the following pages, you have our approval to perform maintenance
dredging of the existing boat basin, replace an existing boat ramp and dredge an access channel, as described in
your CAMA application dated December 3, 2010 and revision sent dated February 23, 2011 received by the
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) in the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) on February 24, 2011. After
-reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification
Number 3642 (GC 3642). This Certification allows you to use the 404 permit when issued by the US Army
Corps of Engineers and the CAMA Major Permit when issued by the Division of Coastal Management. In
addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required federal, state or local permits before you
go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion and Sediment Control, Non-discharge, and
stormwater regulations. Also, this approval to proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to
waters as depicted in your application revision shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application and revision. The approved
plans and specifications for this project are incorporated by reference and are an enforceable part of the permit. If
you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If the
property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter and is thereby
responsible for complying with all conditions. If total fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre
of wetland or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H
.0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any
additional conditions listed on the following pages.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:
1. Impacts Approved
The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all of the other specific and general conditions of
this Certification (or Isolated Wetland Permit) are met. No other impacts are approved including
incidental impacts:
