Dear Mr. and Mrs. York:

THIS IS NOT
A CAMA PERMIT
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions; to construct a 5 -slip docking facility,
as described in your CAMA application dated April 4, 2013, received by the Division of Water Quality
(DWQ) in the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) on April 4, 2013. 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 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 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 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.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result
in criminal and /or civil penalties. The authorization to proceed with your proposed impacts or to
conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application and as authorized by this Certification shall
expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
