Dear Sir or Madam:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to
place fill within or otherwise impact 0.3103 acres of 404/wetland and 0.00 square feet of Zone 1
Neuse River basin protected riparian buffers and 0.00 square feet of Zone 2 Neuse River basin
protected riparian buffers, as described in your application dated May 14, 2007, and received by
the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on May 16, 2007, with additional information received on
July 20, 2007, to construct the proposed residential subdivision. After reviewing your
application, we have decided that the impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification

state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to)
Erosion and Sediment Control, and Non-discharge 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 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 1501inear 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 below.

Buffer -Zone 2 0.00 (square ft.) PCN page 11 of 12
2. No Waste, Spoil, Solids, or Fill of Any Kind
No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas
beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the Pre-Construction Notification. All
construction activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of
sediment and erosion control Best Management Practices, shall be performed so that no
violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur.
3. Erosion and sediment control practices must be in full compliance with all specifications
governing the proper design, installation and operation and maintenance of such Best
Management Practices in order to protect surface waters standards:
a. The erosion and sediment control measures for the project must be designed,
installed, operated, and maintained in accordance with the most recent version of the
North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control Planning and Design Manual.
b. The design, installation, operation, and maintenance of the sediment and erosion
control measures must be such that they equal, or exceed, the requirements specified
in the most recent version of the North Carolina Sediment and Erosion Control
Manual. The devices shall be maintained on all construction sites, borrow sites, and
waste pile (spoil) projects, including contractor-owned or leased borrow pits
associated with the project.
c. Sufficient materials required for stabilization and/or repair of erosion control
measures and stormwater routing and treatment shall be on site at all times.
4. Sediment and Erosion Control Measures
Sediment and erosion control measures shall not be placed in wetlands or waters to the
maximum extent practicable. If placement of sediment and erosion control devices in
wetlands and waters is unavoidable, they shall be removed and the natural grade. restored
within six months of the date that the Division of Land Resources has released the project;
5. Protective Fencing
The outside buffer, wetland or water boundary and along the construction corridor within
these boundaries approved under this authorization shall be clearly marked with orange
warning fencing (or similar high visibility material) for the areas that have been approved
to infringe within the buffer, wetland or water prior to any land disturbing activities to
ensure compliance with 15A NCAC 2B .0233 and GC 3631;

6. Diffuse Flow (No Review)
All constructed stormwater conveyance outlets shall be directed and maintained as
diffuse flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected stream buffers such that it
will not re-concentrate before discharging into a stream as identified within 1 SA NCAC
2B .0233 (5). If this is not possible, it may be necessary to provide stormwater facilities
that are considered to remove nitrogen. This may require additional approval from this
Office.
7. Construction Stormwater Permit NCGO10000
Upon the approval of an Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan issued by the Division
of Land Resources (DLR) or a DLR delegated local erosion and sedimentation control
program, an NPDES General stormwater permit (NCGO10000) administered by DWQ is
automatically issued to the project. This General Permit allows stormwater to be
discharged during land disturbing construction activities as stipulated by conditions in the
permit. If your project is covered by this permit [applicable to construction projects that
disturb one (1) or more acres], full compliance with permit conditions including the
sedimentation control plan, self-monitoring, record keeping and reporting requirements
are required. A copy of this permit and monitoring report forms may be found at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/su/Forms Documents.htm.;
8. Deed Notifications
Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all retained jurisdictional
wetlands, waters and protective buffers in order to assure compliance for future wetland,
water and buffer impact. These mechanisms shall be put in place at the time of recording
of the property, or of individual lots, whichever is appropriate. A sample deed
notification can be downloaded from the 401/Wetlands Unit web site at
http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. The text of the sample deed notification may be
modified as appropriate to suit to this project.
9. Certificate of Completion
Upon completion of all work approved within the 401 Water Quality Certification or
applicable Buffer Rules, and any subsequent modifications, the applicant is required to
return the attached certificate of completion to the 401 Oversight/Express Review
Permitting Unit, North Carolina Division of Water Quality, 1650 Mail Service Center,
Raleigh, NC, 27699-1650.
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.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this Certification (associated with the approved
wetland or stream impacts), you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60
