Dear Mses. Alio and Ayers:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to impact 0.297 acres of
isolated wetlands or waters for the purpose of construction a commercial retail center as you
described in your application dated June 28, 2007. After reviewing your application, we have
decided this fill is below the threshold for written authorization as long as all conditions of the
Isolated Wetland General Permit (IWGP) # 100000 certification are met, which maybe viewed
on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. The current Isolated Wetland Rules state
that a General Permit will be issued for isolated wetland fill if impacts are less than one third of
an acre for the entire project and the project is located east of I-95. You are authorized to
proceed under the Isolated Wetland General Permit Number IWGP100000 (enclosed) provided
that you can meet all of the conditions of this certification.
This approval is only valid 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 wetland fills
for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required
as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and (7). This approval shall expire at midnight on
September 30, 2008. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the
attached certification and any additional conditions listed on the following page.
