Hey Caitlan,
Did you receive Ms. Letica's last email? Based on what we've figured out, it looks like her numbers are correct. So, if we
can put that number in the letter, it would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Doug

Hi Sheila,
In reading over the letter from the mitigation bank, I noticed that you have been approved for the 1640 sq. ft., however
because the impact is in zone 1 of the Catawba Buffer, the ratio for mitigation is 2:1, meaning you should apply for
double the amount of square footage of the impact. It's all very confusing but we'll figure it out.

Please contact Caitlan (see email below), regarding the SOA and any other information
in regards to acquiring the required mitigation for your site. There is some confusion. It may
be a mix up in projects. DWR requires mitigation for some impacts. Before we issue an
approval, we must have documentation that the applicant has applied to and received
notification from the mitigation provider that mitigation credits are available to offset the
proposed impacts.
Thanks

Hi Alan,
I do not need an SOA from you. I was asking Sheila if she needed an SOA to submit. Typically we send these
to the engineer/or client to submit with their plans. As the bank information will need to be in the bank
information will need to be in the buffer authorization letter like last time. Please see attached.
We have an audit with DWR every year, we are not allowed to make a sale without this information in the
letter.
Thanks,

Hi Doug,
Caitlin Parker is asking for a SOA from you.
"An SOA is state of availability, typically one of these is needed before the DWR approves the buffer
authorization. Do you have that from Doug? If so can you please send it to me."
Can you please help me with this?
Sheila

Hello Ms. Parker,
We got your name from Kelly Williams, the In -Lieu Fee Program Coordinator of the Division of Mitigation
Services in the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality. Ms. Williams was very helpful in helping me
understand how mitigation credits works.
Ms. Williams told us to wait to pursue credits from Dogtown until we heard back about our variance application
(DWR# 21-0994). Now that we have heard from Doug Perez, an Environmental Specialist in the Division of
Water Resources - Water Quality Regional Operations of the N.C. Department of Environmental Quality in the
6

Division of Water Resources - Water Quality Regional Operations about our Buffer Variance Application, we
are ready to proceed with purchasing mitigation credits.
Mr. Perez initially told us we needed to apply for a variance for a 640 square foot patio. The department
decision was that we would need to purchase riparian buffer mitigation credits as an alternative to removing the
patio. Mr. Perez also stated that in addition to the credits for the patio, we needed to ask for mitigation credits
for the area covered in gravel, which is 1000 square feet.
So, to summarize, we hope you can assist us in purchasing riparian buffer mitigation credits for 1640 square
feet for our property. Please let us know how to proceed.
Sincerely,
Sheila and Mark Letica

Re Project: 4450 Red Hill Circle
This document confirms that Sheila and Mark Letica (Applicant) for the 4450 Red Hill Circle (Project)
has expressed an interest to utilize 2,640.00 Sguare Feet of Riparian Buffer Mitigation Credits from
the following bank, RES Dogtown Buffer Mitigation Bank. The specific bank site that may be debited
Dogtown, that is located in the Catawba River watershed, specifically HUC 03050101. As the official
Bank Sponsor, EBX, attests to the fact that mitigation is available for reservation at this time.
These mitigation credits are not considered secured, and consequently are eligible to be used for alternate
purposes by the Bank Sponsor, until payment in full is received from the Applicant resulting in the
issuance of a Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate by the bank acknowledging that the Applicant has
fully secured credits from the bank and the Banker has accepted full responsibility for the mitigation
obligation requiring the credits/units.
The Banker will issue the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate within three (3) days of receipt of the
purchase price. Banker shall provide to Applicant a copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer Certificate and
a documented copy of the debit of credits from the Bank Official Credit Ledger(s), indicating the permit
number and the resource type secured by the applicant. A copy of the Mitigation Credit Transfer
Certificate, with an updated Official Credit Ledger will also be sent to regulatory agencies showing the
proper documentation.
Please contact me at 919-209-1075 or cparkergres.us if you have any questions.
