Dear Mrs. McMurray:
Onslow County
DWQ Project #: 11 0178
I
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions; to construct a 23' X I P covered platform
onto your existing pier, as described in your CAMA application dated February 22, 2011 and received by the
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) in the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) on February 22, 2011. After
reviewing your application, we have decided these impacts are below the threshold for written authorization as
long as all conditions of General Water Quality Certification Number 3687 (GC3687) are met. This Certification
allows you to use the Regional General Permit # 198700056 when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers and
your permit when issued by the Division of Coastal Management.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that is described in your application. 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 these Certifications 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 21-1.0506 (h) (6) and (7). This
approval shall expire when the corresponding Nationwide/General Permits expire or as otherwise provided in the
General Certification. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached
certification and any additional conditions listed below.
Conditions of Certification:
1) Upon completion of the project, the applicant shall complete and return the enclosed "Certification of
Completion Form" to notify DWQ that all the work included in the 401 Certification has been completed.
The responsible party shall complete the attached form and return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the
Division of Water Quality.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in
criminal and/or civil penalties. The authorization to proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to
waters as depicted in your application and as authorized by this Certification shall expire upon expiration of the
404 or CAMA Permit.
