place fill within or otherwise temporarily impact 20 linear feet of stream and permanently
impact 1,277 square feet of Zone 1 Neuse River Basin protected riparian buffer and 475 square
feet of Zone 2 Neuse River Basin protected riparian buffer, as described within your application
received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (Division) on November 8, 2012. The impacts are
covered by General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3884 (GC3884), which allows you to
use Nationwide Permit(s) NW12 when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), and
this Buffer Authorization Certificate. In addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with
any other required federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your project
including (but not limited to) Erosion and Sediment Control, Non - discharge, and other
regulations. This approval to proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to
waters as depicted in your application shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA
Permit.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. 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 fills for this project
(now or in the future) exceed one acre of wetland or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory
mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 02H.0506 (h). This approval requires
you to follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions
listed below.
