401 Water Quality Certification
Payne Property - Glenville Shoreline Stabilization
DWQ Project # 11-0139
Jackson County
Response deadline: April 18, 2011
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Payne:
The Division of Water Quality (DWQ) has performed a preliminary review of a 401 Water Quality Certification
application submitted for the above referenced property. Additional information will be required in order to
complete the review process.
Please provide the following information so that we may continue to review your project.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Please provide photo-documentation (including scale) of the area that you wish to provide
stabilization. You may e-mail digital photos to the attention of Ms. Susan Wilson at
susan.a.wilsonnncdenr.gov.
.
2. Please discuss the possibility of bioengineered (vegetative) techniques at the property. The
DWQ will not approve rip-rap or a hard structure until this option is evaluated.
3. Lake Glenville levels are currently at approximately 95 feet. Please explain how work will be
performed "in the dry" as required by DWQ's Water Quality Certification. It is possible that, if
the shoreline stabilization is approved, work may have to be conducted next year (or during the
next draw-down period).
