Mr. Peden,
On August 3, 2021, the Division of Water Resources (Division) received your application requesting a
401 Water Quality Certification from the Division for the subject project. The Division has
determined that your application is incomplete and cannot be processed. The application is on hold
until the following items are addressed:
1. The drawings provided with the application indicate 300 linear feet of streambank
stabilization, but this information is not included on the PCN impact table. Please
confirm/indicate the total length of streambank proposed for stabilization activities. [15A
NCAC 02H .0506(b)(1)] [15A NCAC 02H .0502(c)]
2. Per General Condition 11.9 of GC 4134, all work must be done "in the dry," so that the flowing
stream does not come in contact with the disturbed work area. Therefore, dewatering
methods will be necessary to temporarily dewater the stream channel and/or work area
during bank stabilization activities.
Please describe the proposed method for dewatering or diverting stream flow around the
work area during bank stabilization. Examples include: pump around system, jersey barrier,
cofferdams, rock berms, or other diversion structures. This work should be conducted during
periods of low flow. [15A NCAC 02H .0506 (b)(2)]
3. The construction drawing provided with the application proposes to "establish boulder rocks
from riverbed to above high water line." Please indicate if you are proposing to use stone
from the riverbed. The removal/dredging of stone from the riverbed for stabilization is not
recommended. Boulders/stone associated with the project should be from a different
source. [15A NCAC 02H .0506 (b)(2)]
Pursuant to Title 15A NCAC 02H .0502(c), the applicant shall furnish all of the above requested
information for the proper consideration of the application. If all of the requested information is not
received, the Division will be unable to approve the application and it will be returned.
Please contact me if you have any questions. You may provide your response via email or mail to the
address below.
Thank you,
