If you are unable to comply with any of the conditions below, you must notify the Washington Regional
Office within 24 hours (or the next business day if a weekend or holiday) from the time the permittee
becomes aware of the circumstances.
The permittee shall report to the Washington Regional Office any noncompliance with the conditions of
this Authorization Certificate and/or any violation of state regulated riparian buffer rules [15A NCAC
02B .0734]. Information shall be provided orally within 24 hours (or the next business day if a weekend
or holiday) from the time the applicant became aware of the circumstances.
Additional Conditions:
1. The Permittee shall replant the vegetation within temporarily disturbed areas associated
with this project in an 'in kind" manner immediately following construction. (Example:
Disturbed areas with pre-existing grassed lawns must be replanted with grass. Disturbed
areas with pre-existing trees or woody vegetation must be replanted with trees and woody
vegetation. Disturbed areas with pre-existing forest vegetation must be replanted with
forest vegetation including at least two different native hardwood tree species at a density
sufficient to provide 260 trees per acre at maturity. This density can usually be achieved 3y
planting approximately 436 (10 x 10 spacing) to 681 (8 x 8 spacing) trees per acre.)
Restoration of trees/shrubs/forest must be completed by the first subsequent planting
season (November 1 through March 30). Note, if the tree plantings do not survive, they will
need to be replaced such that the density is sufficient to provide 260 trees per acre at
maturity. [15A NCAC 02H .0507(c), 15A NCAC 02H .0506(b)(3), and Table of Use for each
