your CAMA application dated September 24, 2013 and received by the Division of Water
Resources (DWR) in the Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) on September 26, 2013. After
reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts are covered by General Water
Resources Certification Number 3900 (GC 3900). This Certification allows you to use the 404
permit when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers and the CAMA Major Permit when
issued by the Division of Coastal Management. In addition, you should obtain or otherwise
comply with any other required federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your
project including (but not limited to) Erosion and Sediment Control, Non - discharge, and
stormwater regulations. Also, this approval to proceed with your proposed impacts or to
conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application shall expire upon expiration of the
404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. 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 General Certification and
approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total fills for this
project (now or in the future) exceed one acre of wetland or 150 linear feet of stream,
compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). This
approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any
additional conditions listed on the following pages.
