Dear Mr. Baker:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions; to remove and recycle surface and

13, 2012 and received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) on
August 30, 2012. After reviewing your application, we have decided this impact is below the threshold
for written authorization as long as all conditions of General Water Quality Certification Number 3896
(GC 3896) are met. This Certification allows you to use the Nationwide 38 Permit when issued by the
US Army Corps of Engineers.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you 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 this Certification 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 Permit expires 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:
All construction activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of
sediment and erosion control Best Management Practices, shall be performed so that no violations
of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur.
