Dear Sirs:
Reference is made to the meeting of July 15, 1992 with Mr. John Thomas of
my staff and Mr. Chuck Truby of Borum and Associates (engineering consultant
for the site) at the proposed Revere's Run Housing Development located off
Coronado Drive, adjacent to an unnamed tributary to South Buffalo Creek,
Greensboro, Guilford County, North Carolina. The purpose of this meeting was
to discuss plans for a proposed fill for lot development, and to inspect the
site for wetlands subject to Department of the Army permitting authority.
The meeting revealed that the site is located adjacent to an unnamed,
above headwaters tributary of South Buffalo Creek. Site plans provided by
Mr. Truby showed proposed impacts of 0.36 acre of jurisdictional wetlands in
association with a relocation of the aforementioned tributary for lot
development.
For the purposes of the U.S. Army 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 10 acres 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.
-2-
Your proposed work, involving adverse modification to less than an acre
(0.36 acres) of waters of the United States located above the headwaters of
the aforementioned tributary, is authorized by nationwide permit provided it
is accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions. Please be
aware that this authorization does not relieve you of the responsibility to
obtain any other required or local approval. You should contact Mr. John
Dorney, North Carolina Division of Environmental Management, (919) 733-1786,
to obtain the necessary Section 401, Water Quality Certification prior to
starting work.
Thank you for your time and cooperation. If you have any questions,
please contact Mr. Thomas, Raleigh Regulatory Field Office, telephone (919)
846-0648.
Sincerely,
G. Wayne Wright
Chief, Regulatory Branch
