Dave:
Your letter dated April 10, 2007, regarding Lotl-A of Schilsky Chiropractic Center
indicated that a permit modification to SW8 020502 had been submitted.
Unfortunately, I have no record of receiving a permit modification for that
project. Is the project scheduled for an Express review? If not, can you please
update me with the status of your modified submittal and about when it might be
submitted? Dr. Covert's permit cannot be issued until the Chiropractic Center
modified permit is issued.

Re: Schilsky Chiropractic Center
Stormwater Project SW8 020502
Onslow County
Dear Mr. Beck,
Schilsky Chiropractic Center. has retained Crystal Coast Engineering, PA to assist
with the permit modifications required to bring the referenced project into compliance.
We are in receipt of your Notice of Violation dated March 20, 2007. On behalf of our
client, we request that you consider the following prior to recommending any
enforcement action
Section 11.9 Failure to submit a permit modification prior to the subdivision and sale of
the project area. As noted, Lot 1-A was recently sold to Dr. Shanie Covert and Lot B-
1 to East Carolina Bank. Two additional tracts have also recently been conveyed.
All purchasers were made aware of all permitting requirements. It was our intent that
the Offsite System Supplement submitted by each buyer would serve as the required
notification to DWQ of the sale(s). In accordance with our permit, each owner is
required to submit plans and permit applications to your office prior to commencing
construction. No construction has commenced on any site as of this date.
The wet detention pond constructed by Schilsky Chiropractic was designed to
accommodate 202,475 sf of "Future" BUA from the offsite tracts. The proposed
developments are not anticipated to cumulatively exceed that amount. It was not
clear to us, based upon the language in the permit, that additional notification
(beyond the Offsite Supplements) or formal modification to our permit was necessary
in order to convey these tracts. Section 10 of the permit requires submission of plans
and permit application "for any permitted future areas". All buyers have, or are in the
process of, fumishing this documentation to your office. Furthermore, Section 10
indicates that a modification to our permit is necessary only if "proposed BUA
exceeds the amount permitted". As the proposed BUA on the conveyed tracts does
not exceed 202,475 sf, it was not clear to us that a modification was necessary. If,
• Page 2
April 10, 2007
however, the DWQ wishes us to apply for a permit modification, we can certainly do
so.
Below is our "Plan of Action" which hopefully bring this project into compliance.
Plan of Action
4/10/07 — Furnish Notifications of change of ownership.
4/10/07 - Submit Permit Modification to address Shanie Covert project.
Future — Provide Notification to DWQ of any additional transfers of property
ownership.
Future — Furnish Permit Modification concurrent with any and all future permit
applications for tracts sold to third parties.
In closing, please understand that the noted violation was unintentional and there
was no intent to circumvent permit requirements or conceal the sales. We are
hopeful that our "Plan of Action" will resolve any compliance issues and that your
office will reconsider any additional enforcement action.
Should y - ave q;uns or additional concerns, please feel free to contact me.

Wy residential, commercial, and institutional activities with structures on the foundation(s)
or building pad(s), as well as the attendant features, are authorized by this nationwide permit.
The compensatory mitigation proposal required in paragrapha (fj of this nationwide permit may be
either conceptual or detailed. The wetland or upland vegetated buffer required in paragraph 6) of
this nationwide permit will determined on a case -by -case basis by the District beer for
addressing water duality concerns. The required wetland or upland vegetated buffer is part of the
overall compensatory mitigation requirement for this nationwide permit. If the project site was
previously used for agricultmral purposes and the farm owner/operator used Nationwide Permit
40 to authorize activities iu waters of the United States to increase production or construct farm,
buildings, Nationwide Permit 39 cannot be used by the developer to authorize additional
activities in waters of the United States on the project site in excess of the acreage limit fbr
Nationwide Pew; 39 (i.e., the combined acreage loss authorized under Nationwide Permits 39
and 40 cannot exceed Il/2\ acre).
Subdivisions: For residential subdivisions, the aggregate total loss of waters of Unites States
authorized by Nationwide Permit 39 cannot exceed\1/2\ acre. This includes any loss of waters
associated with development of individual subdivision lots. (sections 10 and 404)
Note: Areas wheze wetland vegetation is not present should be determined by the presence or
absence of au ordinary bigh water mark or bed and bank. areas that are waters of the United
States based on this criterion would require a Pre-CGnatruction Notifeation (PCN) although
water is inf'requentlypresent in the stream, channel (except for ephemeral waters, which do not
require PCNs udder paragraph (c)(s), above; however, activities that result in the loss of greater
thanll/10\ acre of ephemeral waters would require PCNs under paragraph (e)(1), above) are
determined by the presence or absence of an ordinary high water mark or bed and back. Areas
that are waters of the United States based on this criteria would require a PCN even though water
is infiaquently present in the stream channel (except for ephemeral waters).

2, Proper 1&4atenance. Any structure or fill authorized shall be properly maintained,
including maintenance to ensure public safety,
3. Soil Brosion and Sediment Controls. Appropriate soil erosion and sediment controls
must be used and maintained in effective operating condition during construction, and all
exposed soil and other Fills, as well as any work below the ordinary high water mark of high tide
line, must be permanently stabilized at the earliest practicable date. Permittees are encouraged to
perforni work within, waters of the United States during periods of low -flow or no -flow.
4. Aquatic Life Movements, No activity may substantially disrupt the necessary life -cycle
movements of those species of aquatic life indigenous to the waterbody, including those species
that normally migrate through the area, unless the activity's primary purpose is to impound water.
Culverts placed in streams must be installed to maintain low flow conditions.
5. Equipment. Heavy equipment workbag in wetlands must be placed on mots, or other
measures must be taken to minimise soil disturbance.
6. Regional and Case -By -Case Conditions. The activity must comply with any regional
conditions that may have been added by the Division Engineer (see 33 CFR 330.4(e)) and with
any case specific conditions added by the Corps or by the state or tribe in its Section 401 Water
Quality Certification and Coastal Zone Management Act consistency determination,
7. Wild shd Scenic Rivers. No activity may occur in a component of the National Wild and
Scenic River System; or in a river officially designated by Congress as a'study river" for possible
inclusion itt.the system, while the river is in an official study status; unless the appropriate
Federal agency, with direct management responsibility for such river, bas determined in, writing
that the proposed activity will not adversely affect the Wild and Scenic River desigaation, or
study status. Information on Wild and Scenic lovers may be obtained from the appropriate
Federal land management agency in the area (e,g., National Park Service, U.S. Forest Service,
Bureau of Land Manag==t, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Sarvice),
8. Tribal Rights, No activity or its operation may impair reserved tribal rights, including,
but not limited to; reserved water rights and treaty Fishing and hunting rights.
9, Water Quality.
4
I+. C-VjVj4 .7. IUri, I USHLU W1LMiN61 ON NO.409 P. B
a. In certain states and tribal lands an individual 401 Water Quality Certification must be
obtained or waivod (See 33 CFR 330.4(c)).
b. For NWPa 12014o 17,18, 32, 39, 40, 42, 43, and 44, where the state or tribal 401
certification (either generically or individually) does not require or approve water qualify
management measures, the pmnittee must provide water quality management measures that will
ensure that the authorized work does not result in more than minimal degradation of watt
quality (or the Corps determivas that compliance with state or local standards, where applicable,
will ensure no more than minhal adverse effect on water quality), An important component of
water quality management includes stormwater management that minimizes degradation of the
downstm= aquatic system, including water quality (refer to General Condition 21 for
stormwater management requirements). Another important component of water quality
management is the establishment and maintenence of vegetated buffers next to open waters,
including streams (refer to General Condition 19 For vegetated buffer requirements for the
NWPs).
This condition is only applicable to projects that have the potential to affect water quality,
While appropriate measures must be taken., in most cases it is not necessary to conduct detailed
studies to identify such meamres or to require monitoring.
10. Coastal Zone Management. Tn certain states, an individual state coastal zone
management consistency concurrence must be obtWned or waived (see 33 CPR 330.4(d)).
11, -Endangered Species.
a. No activity is authorized under any NWP which is likely to jeopardize the continuad
exist�noe of a threatened or endangered species or a species proposed for such designation, as
identified under the Pederal Endangered Species Act (ESA), or which will destroy or adversely
modify the critical habitat of such species. Nor -federal permittees shall notify the District
Engineer if any listed species or designated critical habitat might be affbated or is in the vicinity
of the project, or is located in the designated critical habitat and shall not begin work on the
activity until notified by the District Engineer that the requirements of the BS.A. have been
satisfied and that the activity is authorized, For activities that may affect Federally -listed
endangered or threatened species or designated critical habitat, the notification must include the
name(s) otthe endangered or threatened species that maybe affected by the proposed work or
that utilize the designated critical habitat that may be affected by the proposed work. As a result
of fbrmal or informal consultatioxx with the FWS or NWS the District Engineer may add
species -specific regional endangered species condition's to the NWPs.
. b. Authorization of as activity by a NWP does not authorize the "take" of a threatened
or endangered species as defined under the BSA. In the aboence of separate authorization (e.g., an
ESA Sectioa 10 Peetnit; a Biological Opinion with "incidental take" provisions, etc.) ftbm the
USFWS or the NMFS, both lethal and ron4ethal "takes" of protected species are in violation of
the ESA. Woraaatioa on the location of threatened and endangered species and their critical

c. Forst of Notification: The standard Individual Permit application form (Form ENa
4345) may be used as the notification but must clearly indicate that it is a PCN and must include
all of the information required in (b) (1)-(18) of General Condition 13. A letter containing the
requisite information may also be used.
d. District: Engineer's Decision: In reviewing the PCN for the proposed activity, the
District Engineer will dew=ine whether the activity authorized by the NWP will result in more
than minimal indirdual or cumulative adverse environmental effects or may be contrary to the
public interest. The prospective pwwittee may submit a proposed mitigation plan with the PCN
to expedite the process. The District Engineer will consider any proposed compensatory
mitigation the applicant has included in the proposal in detat�in' whether the net adverse
environmental effects to the aquatic environment of the proposed work are minimal. If the
District B,ugineer determines that the activity complies with the terms and conditions of the NWP
and that the adverse effects on the aquatic environment are minimal, 4a considerlug mitigation,
the District Engineer will notify the pmrmittee and, include any conditions the District Engineer
IT IT . 4. i=UU4 J; IdfIrl USHLV WILMINGTON NO. 409 P. 13
deems necessary. The District Engineer must approve: any eompmrsatory mitigation proposal
before the permittee commences work. If the prospective permittee is required to submit a
compensatory mitigation proposal with the PCN, the proposal msy be either conceptual or
detailed. If the prospective permittee elects to sribrnit a compensatory mitigation plan with the
PM the District Engineer will expeditiously review the proposed compensatory mitigation plan.
The District Engbeer must review the plan. within 45 days of receiving a complete PCN and
determine wheftt the conceptual or specific proposed mitigation would ensure no more than
minimal adverse effects on the aquatic environment. rf the net adverse effects of the project on
the aquatic enviromnent (after consideration of the compensatory mitigation proposal) are
determined by the District Engium to be minimal, the District Engineer will provide 4 timely
written response to the applicant. The response will state that the project can proceed under the
terms and conditions of the NW.
If the District Engineer determines that the adverse effects of the proposed work are more
than minimal; then the District Engineer will notaif� the applicant either:
1. That the project does not qualify.for authorization under the NWP and instruct
the applicant on the procedures to seek authorization afnder an Individual Permit;
2, that the project is authorized under the NWP subject to the applicant's submission
of a mitigation, proposal that would reduce the adverse effects on the aquatic environment to the
minimal level; or
I that the project is authorized under the. NWP with specific modifications or
conditions. Where the District Engineer determines that mitigation is required to ensure no more
than mini al adverse effects occur to the aquatic environment, the activity will be authorized
within the 45-day PCN period, The authorization will include the necessary conceptual or
spocifio mitigation or a requirement that the applicant submit a mitigation proposal that would
reduce the adverse effects on the aquatic environment to thermal level. When conceptual
mitigation is included, or a mitigation plan is required under item (2) above, no work in waters of
the US will occur until the District Engineer has approved a specific mitigation plan. .
e, Agency Coordination: The District Engineer will consider any comments from,
Federal and state agencies concerning the proposed activity's compliance with the terms and
conditions of the NV?s and the need for mitigation to reduce the project's adverse environmental
effects to a minimal level.
For activities requiring notification to the District Engineer that result in the loss of greater
than 11/21-acre of waters of the US, the District Engineer will provide immediately (e.g., via
facsimile transmission, overnight mail, or other expeditious manner) a copy to the appropriate
Federal or state offices (USFWS, state natural :resource or water quality agency, $PA, State
Historic Preservation Officer (SIPO), and, if appropriate, the NNTS). With the cxoeption of
N iT 37, these agencies will then have 10 calendar days from the date the material is transmitted
to telephone or lax the District Engineer notice that they intend to provide substantive,
10
i ,n I - 4. cVJer•+ _). 1Gr11 uSHLV W1LI.111yb I UN NO. 409 P.14
site -specific comment$. If so contacted by an agency, the District Engineer will wait an
additional 15 calendar days before making a decision on the notification. The District Bngineer
will My consider agency comments received within the specified time frame, but will provide
no response to the resource agency, except as provided below. The District Engineer will indicate
in the administrative record associated with each, notification that the resource agencies' concerns
were considered. As required by section 305(b)(4)(D) of the Magnuson -Steve Fishery
Conservation and Management Act, the District Engineer will provide a response to NMFS
within 30 days of receipt of any Essential Fish Habitat conservation recommendations,
Applicants are encouraged to provide the Corps multiple copies of notifications to expedite
agency notification.
f. Watland Delineations: Wetland delineations must be prepared in accordance with the
current method required by the Corps (,For NWP 29 see paragraph (b)(9)(iii) for parcels less than
01/41-acre in size). The permittee may ask the Corps to defeats the special aquatic site. There
may be some delay if the Corps does the delineation, Furthermore, the 45-day period will not
start ura the wetland delineation has been completed and submitted to the Corps, where
appropriate.
14. Compliance Certification. Every pormittee who has received NWP verification from the
Corps will submit a signed certification regarding the completed worse and any required
mitig4om The certifications will be forwarded by the Corps with the authorization letter and will
include:
IL A statement that the authorized work was done in accordance with the Corps
authorization, including any general or specific conditions;
b. A statement that any required mitigation was completed in accordance with the
permit conditions; and
c. The signature of the permiitee certifying the completion of the work and mitigation.
15. Use of Multiple Nationwide Permits. The use of more than one NWP for a single and
complete project i& prohibited, except when the acreage loss of waters of the US authorized by
the NWPs does not exceed the acreage limit of the MVP with, the highest specified acreage limit
(e.g. if a road crossix:g over tidal waters is constructed under NWP 14, with associated bank
stabilization authorized by NWP 13, the maximum acreage loss of waters of the US for the total
project cannot exceed 11/31,acre) .
16. Water Supply Intakes, No activity, including structares and work in navigable waters of
the US or discharges of dredged or fill material, may occur in the proximity of a public water
supply intake except where the activity is for repair of the public water supply intake stmotures
or adjacent bank stabilization
17. Shellfish Beds, No activity, including structa,7es and work in navigable waters of the US
xI
VIM I . 4. GYJVJ4 J• IZJrVI USHLU WILMIN6 1 UN N0.409 P.15
r
or discharges of dredged or fat maternal, may occur in areas of concentrated shellfish
populations, unless the activity is directly related to a shellf sh harvesting activity authorized by
NWP +4.
18, Suitable Material. No activity, including strictures and work in navigable waters of the
US or discharges of dredged or fill material, may consist of unsuitable acnaterial (e,g., trash,
debris, car bodies, asphalt, etc.) and material used for construction or discharged must be free
from toxic pollutants in toxic amounts (see section 307 of the CWA).
19. Mitigation, The District Engineer will consider the factors discussed below when
determining the acceptability of appropriate and practicable mitigation necessary to offset
adverse effects on the aquatic environment that axe more than minimal.
a. The project must be designed and constructed to avoid and amit imize adverse effects
to waters of the US to the maximum extent practicable at the project Site (i.e., on site).
b. Mitigauon in all its forams (avoiding, minimizing, rectifying, reducing or
compensating) will be required to the extent accessary to ensure that the adverse effects to the
aquatic environment are minimal.
c. Compensatory mitigation at a mfiAmum one -for -one ratio will be required for all
wetland impacts requiring a PCN, unless the District Engineer determines in writing that some
other form of mitigation would be more environmentally appropriate and provides a
project -specific waiver of this requirement. Consistent with National policy, the District Engineer
will establish a pref6rance for restoration of wetlands as compensatory mitigation, with
preservation used only in, exceptional circtunstanees.
d. Compensatory mitigation (Le., replacement or substitution of aquatic resources for
those impacted) will not be used to iacreaase the acreage losses allowed by the acreage limits of
some of the NWPs. For example, 11/41-acre of wetlands connot be created to charge a,13/4\aere
loss of wetlands to a \l/2\-scare loss associated with NV? 39 verification. However, 11/2\-4=e of
created wetlands cau be used to reduce the impacts of a 11/2Vacre loss of wetlands to the
mmunum impact level in order to ineet the rninhnal impact requirement associated with NWPs,
e. To be prwticable, the mitigationt must be available and capable of being done
considering costs, existing technology, and logistics in light of the overall project purposes.
Examples of mitigation that may be appropriate and practicable include, but are not limited to;
reducing the size of the proeet; establishing and maintaining wetland or upland vegetated buffers
to protect open waters such as Ovams; and replacing losses of aquatic resource functions ,and
values by creadfig, restoring, enhancing, or preser i ng similar functions and values, preferably in
the same watershed.
f. Compensatory mitigation plans for projects in or near streams or other open waters
will normally include a requirement for the establisbment, maintenance,and legal protection
12
,'in I , 4. eejr.+ z- iirm UbHtU W1LMiNG I UN N0. 409 P.16
(e.g., ewements; deed restrictions) of vegetated buffers to open waters. In many cases, vegetated
buff= wfli be the only compensatory mitigation required, Vegetated buffers should consist of
native species. The width of the vegetated buffers wired will address documented water
quality or -aquatic habitat loss concerns. Normally, the vegetated buffer .will be 25 to 50 feet wide
on each side of the strmam, but the Distract Engineers may require slightly wider vegetated buffers
to address documented water quality or habitat loss concerns. Where both wetlands and open
waters exist on the project site, the Corps will detenrine the appropriate compensatory mitigation
(e.g., stream buffers or wetlands compensation) based on what is best for the aquatic
exivironmeat or, a watershed basis, In cases where vegetated buffers are determined to be the
most appropriate form of compensatory mitigation, the District Engineer may waive or reduce
the requirement to provide wetland compensatory mi•:zgation for wetland impacts.
g. Compensatory mitigation proposals submitted with the " notification" may be either
conceptual or detailed.. If conceptual plans are approved under the verification, them the Corps
will condition the verilloation to require detailed plans be submitted and approved by the Corps
prior to construction of the authorized activity in waters of the Us.
I Permittees may propose the use of mitigation banks, in -lieu fee arrangements or
separate activity-speei,f c compensatory mitigation. la all cases that require compensatory
mitigation, the mitigation provisions will specify the party responsible for accomplishing and/or
complying with the mitigation plan.
20. Spawning Areas. Activities, including strucrzes and work in navigable waters of the
U3 or discharges of dredged or fill material, in spawning areas during spawning seasono must be
avoided to the maximum extent practicable. Activities that result in the physical destruction (e.g.,
excavate, fill, or smother downstream by substantialturbidity) of an important spawning area are
not authorized.
21. Manage ent.of Water Flows. To the maximum extent practicable, the activity must be
designed to mainta..n preconstru.ction downstream flow conditions (a.g., location, capacity, and
flow rates). Furthermore; the ktivity must not permanently restdct or impede the passage of
aorm.al or expected high, #lows (unless the primary pu m, ose of the fill is to impound waters) and
the structure or discharge of dredged or fill material must withstand expected high stows. The
activity must, to the maximum extent practicable, provide for retauung excess flows from the
site, provide far maintaining surface flow rates from the site similar to preconstructi,on
c6nditk as, and provide for not increasing water flows .irons the project site, relocating water, or
redirecting water flow beyond preconst=don conditions. Stream channelizing will be reduced to
the minimal amounts necessary, and the activity must, to the maximum extent practicable, reduce
adverse effects such as flooding or erosion downstream and upstream of the project site, unless
the activity is pant of a larger systom designed to manage water flows. In most cases, it will not
be a requirement to conduct detailed studies and monitoring of water flow.
This condition is oUIy applicable to projects that have the potential to affect water lows.
While appropriate rmeas=s must be taken, it is riot necessary to conduct detailed studies to
1.3
If. CUU14 i. ijrn USHLU W1LMINv I UN N0. 409 P.17
identify such meastim or require monitoring to ensure their effectiveness. Normally, the Corps
will defer to state and local authorities regarding management of water flow.
22. Adverse Ef tbcts From Impoundments. If the activity creates an impoun m gmt of water,
adverse effects to the aquatic syst= due to the acceleration of the passage of water, and/or the
restricting its flow shall be m; nizaff ed to the maximum extent practicable. This imoludes
structures and work in navigable waters of the US, or discharges of dredged or :ill material.
23, Waterfowl Breeding Areas. Activities, including structures and work in Navigable
waters of the US or discharges of dredged or fll1 material, into breeding areas for migratory
waterfowl must be avoided to the maximum, extent practicable.
24. Removal of Temporary Fills, Any temporary fills must be renroved in their entirety and
the affected areas returned to their preexisting elevation.
25. Designated Critical Resource Waters, Critical resource waters include,
NOAA,designated marine sanctuaries, National Estuarine Research Reserves, National Wild and
Scenic Rivers, critical habitat for Federally listed threatened and endangered species, coral reefs,
state natural heritage sites, and outstanding national resource waters or other waters officially
designated by a state as having particular enviroamental or ecological signafieasnce and identafred
by the District Engineer after notice and opportunity for public comment, The District Engineer
may also designate additional critical resource waters after notice and opportunity for comment.
a. Except as noted below, discharges of dredged or fill material into waters of the US
axe not authorized by NWPs 7, 12, 14, 16, 17, 21, 29, 31, 35, 39, 40, 42, 43, and 44 for any
activity within, or directly affecting, critical resource waters, iucluditig wetlands adjacent to such
waters. Discharges of dredged or ,till materials into waters of the US may be authorized by the
above NWPs in National Wild end Scenic Rivers if the activity complies with General Condition
7. Further, such discharges may be authorized in designated critical habitat for Federally listed
threatened or endangered speoies if the activity complies with General Condition I mrad the
USFWS or the NMFS has concurred in, a determination of compliance with thi's condition.
b. For NWPs 3, 8,10,13,15, 18,19, 22, 23, 25, 27, 28, 30, A 34, 36, 37, and 38,
notification is required in accordance with General Condition 13, for any activity proposed in the
designated critical resource waters including wetlands adjacent to those waters. The District
Engineer may authorize activities under these NWPs only after it is determined that the Xmpaets
to the critical resource waters will be no more than minimal.
26. Fills Withl.100-Year Floodplains, For purposes of this General Condition, 100-year
fl.00dplaim will be identified through the existing Federal Emergency Management Agency's
(FEMA) Flood Insurance Rate Maps or FEMA-approved looal"floodplairl maps.
a. Discharges in, Floodplazu; Below Headwaters, Discharges of dredged or fill material
into waters of the US within the mapped 100year floodplain, below headwaters (i.e. five cfs),

b. Discharges in Floodwaay; Above Headwaters. Discharges of dredged or fill material
into waters of the 'US wift the FEMA or locally mapped floodway, resulting in peurm,anent
above -grade fills, are not authored by NWPs 39, 40, 42, and 44.
c. The permittee must comply with any applicable FEMA-approved state or local
floodplain management requirements.
. 27, Construction, period. For activities that have not been verified by the Corps and the
project was commenced or under contract to commence by the expiration date of the NWP (or
modification or revocedou date), the work must be completed within 12-months after such date,
(including any modification that affects the project),
For activities that have been verified and the project was commenced or uuderr contract to
commence within the verification period, the work roust be completed by the date determined by
the Corps.
For projects bat have been verified by the Corps, an extension of a Corps approved
completion date maybe requested, This request must be submitted at least one month before the
previously approved completion date.

Change the use of a waterbody. The acreage of loss of waters of the US is the threshold
measur meat of the impact to existing waters for detemnining whether a project may qualify for a
NW; it is not a net threshold that is calculated after considering compensatory mitigation that
may be used to offset losses of aquatic functions and values. The loss of stream bed includes the
linear .feet of stream bed that is filled or excavated. Waters of the US temporarily filled, .flooded,
excavated, or drained, but restored to precdnstruction contours and elevations after construction,
are not included fn the txteaMA=eat of loss of waters of the US. Impacts to ephemeral waters
are only not included in the acreage or linear foot measurements of loss of waters of the US or

Map Book 45 Page 53 — Onslow County Registry
Dear Ms. Frye:
409Johnson Blvd.
Jacksonville, NC 28540
I am writing on behalf of Randy Schilsky, owner of the above referenced property.
Previously, there was a fill permit obtained for WJR Properties who had signed a contract
to buy a portion of Lot 2 as shown on the attached map. I have enclosed for your review
a copy of the "Submittal for fill permit from Mitchell and Associates Inc.", a copy of the
"Purchase Agreement with Schilsky and WJR Properties LLC" and a copy of the
"General Permit" issued.
The contract between Schilsky & WJR Properties was terminated and there is a new
buyer involved (East Carolina Bank). However, the bank had required an additional
twenty five foot (25') strip located along the left side of the property as revised on the
enclosed recorded map. We are requesting for an additional wetland fill arca of six
hundred eighty one- square feet (681 s.f.) as shown on the attached `preliminary layout'
for East Carolina. Bank.
Should you need any additional information to grant this request, please do not hesitate to
contact me,
Sincerely,
John L. Pierce
