Hello Mr. Washburn,
On May 31, 2022, 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 all of the following information is received:
1. Aerial imagery indicates the buffer zone on this parcel is currently forested. The plan received on May 31, 2022
proposes an 10 ft wide construction corridor that has a temporary disturbance of 1,330 sqft within Zone 1 and
160 sqft in Zone 2 of the Catawba Buffer. The Catawba buffer within the temporary construction access
corridors must be restored to pre‐construction topographic and hydrologic conditions and replanted with
comparable vegetation within two months of when construction is complete. Plans do not indicate replanting
planned for this area. Please provide a replanting plan for all areas with proposed temporary impact. The
replanting plan should include a list of tree species, locations identified on map, and a maintenance schedule to
ensure the tree survives.
Pursuant to Title 15A NCAC 02H .0502(e), the applicant shall furnish all of the above requested information for the
proper consideration of the application. Please respond in writing within 30 calendar days. If all of the requested
information is not received within 30 calendar days of receipt of this letter, the Division will be unable to approve the
application and it will be denied as incomplete. The denial of this project will necessitate reapplication to the Division
for approval, including a complete application package and the appropriate fee. Please be aware that you have no
authorization under the Section 401 of the Clean Water Act for this activity and any work done within waters of the
state may be a violation of North Carolina General Statutes and Administrative Code.
