RE: Tulls Creek temporary Impact Site, Currituck County, TIP No. B-4494, CAMA Major Permit No. 9Q-11.
Dear Mr. Harris:
This letter is in response to the N.C. Department of Transportation (NCDOT) letter dated May 20, 2014 regarding
the Tulls Creek Temporary Impact Site in Currituck County.
Condition No. 26 of CAMA Major Permit No. 90-11 which was issued on July 19, 2011 requires that NCDOT
conduct monitoring to ensure that the wetland areas temporarily impacted by this project re-attain pre-project
wetland functions. The N.C. Division of Coastal Management (DCM) has reviewed the annual monitoring report
prepared by NCDOT in 2013. DCM also attended a site visit with NCDOT on May 13, 2014. Based upon this
review, DCM agrees that no further monitoring is required and that the site may be officially closed. �
Please contact me at (919) 707-9149 or via e-mai! at Cathy.Brittin am(�a,ncdenr.gov if you have any questions or
concerns.
Sincerely, „
C�"�
