The Division of Environmental Management (DEM) received a letter from the

and send six additional copies (a total of seven copies) so that the review of your

Dear Mr. Schreiner:
Reference your October 14, 1992 application for Department of the Army
authorization to construct a road crossing over part of a vegetated cove on
Lake Norman next to Isle of Pines Road, SR 1113, in Iredell County, North
Carolina. The road crossing will be approximately 85 feet long, no greater
than 150 feet wide (from toe to toe on a 3:1 slope), and approximately 14 feet
in depth. A 150 foot long, 72 inch diameter culvert will be installed under
the road. Approximately 0.3 acres of wetlands will be impacted by the project.
The purpose for the crossing is to access high ground on the North Shore II
development project.
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, pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899
and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was provided for fills for roads
crossing waters of the United States (including wetlands and other special
aquatic sites) provided:
a. The width of the fill is limited to the minimum necessary for the
actual crossing;
b. The fill placed in waters of the United States is limited to a filled
area of no more than one-third acre. Furthermore, no more than a total of 200
linear feet of the fill for the roadway can occur in special aquatic sites,
including wetlands;
c. The crossing is culverted, bridged or otherwise designed to prevent
the restriction of, and to withstand, expected highflows and the movement of
aquatic organisms;
d. The crossing, including all attendant features, both temporary and
permanent, is part of a single and complete project for crossing of a water of
the United States; and

e. For fills in special aquatic sites, including wetlands, the permittee
notifies the District Engineer in accordance with the "Notification" general
condition.
Your work is authorized by this nationwide permit provided it is
accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions. This
nationwide permit does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any
required State or local approval. It is recommended that you contact Mr. John
Dorney of the State of North Carolina, at telephone [phone], to insure
that you have ccanplied with state water quality certification requirements.
This verification will be valid for 2 years froan the date of this letter
unless the nationwide authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. Also,
this verification will remain valid for the 2 years if, during that period,
the nationwide permit authorization is reissued without modification or the
activity complies with any subsequent modification of the nationwide permit
authorization. If during the 2 years, the nationwide permit 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 nationwide permit,
activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under
contract to commence in reliance upon the nationwide permit will remain
authorized provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the date of
the nationwide permit's expiration, modification or revocation, unless
discretionary authority has been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify,
suspend, or revoke the authorization.
