Approximately 0.02 acres of wetlands consisting of black willow and tag alder are established along the fringe of one side of the pond. The pond is in the headwaters of Lower Creek. This project has been coordinated with the N.C. Wildlife Resources Commission (WRC). For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program, Title 33, code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in the Federal Register on November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits. Authorization was provided, pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, for discharges of dredged or fill material into headwaters and isolated waters provided: a. The discharge does not cause the loss of more than 1 acre of waters of the United States; b. The permittee notifies the District Engineer if the discharge would cause the loss of waters of the United States greater than one acre in accordance with the "Notification" general condition. For discharges in special aquatic sites, including wetlands, the notification must also include a delineation of affected specific aquatic sites, including wetlands; and c. The discharge, including all attendant features, both temporary and permanent, is part of a single and complete project.

If during the 2 years, the NWP authorization expires or is suspended or revoked, or is modified, such that the activity would no longer comply with the terms and conditions of the NWP authorization, activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under contract to commence in reliance upon the NWP will remain authorized provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the date of the NWP's expiration, modification or revocation, unless discretionary authority has been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify, suspend, or-revoke the authorization.
