Dear Mr. Arnold:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions; to install a single -pile davit lift to
your existing docking facility, as described in your CAMA application dated September 13, 2012 and
received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) in the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) on
September 13, 2012. After reviewing your application, we have decided these impacts are below the
threshold for written authorization as long as the conditions of the General Water Quality Certification
Number 3883 (GC3883) 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 2H.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 on the next 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.
