Dear Mr. Roughton:
John E. Skvarla, III

DWQ # 12 -0825
Dare County
On August 30, 2012, the Division of Water Quality (Division) received your application
requesting a 401 Water Quality Certification from the Division for your project. The Division
received the Public Notice from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers on November 30, 2012. The
Division has determined that your application is incomplete and cannot be processed. The
application is on -hold until all of the following information is received:
1. This Office believes that the proposed buildings can be moved or reconfigured to
minimize the impacts to the wetlands. Please revise the plans to minimize the impacts.
2. Plan drawings do not sufficiently show adjoining properties and wetland boundaries
that extend off the subject site. The highway right -of -way is not clearly indicated on
plan drawings to show alternative entrances into the property that may avoid wetland
impacts. If access to the highway is restricted, provide documentation from DOT stating
imposed highway access restrictions.
3. Plan drawings do not show stormwater management and treatment for this site.
4. Provide documentation from an appropriate mitigation bank or the NCEEP indicating
their willingness to accept your request to purchase non - riparian wetland credit to
mitigate for the proposed wetland impacts listed in your application. Mitigation
provider selection must conform to the requirements of G.S. 143 - 214.11. The letter
provided from the Great Dismal Swamp Restoration Bank, LLC is a price quote not a
credit reservation letter. Also, the letter expired on November 30, 2012.
