violation of applicable Water Quality Standards and discharge guidelines, Therefore, the State of North
Carolina certifies that this activity will not violate the applicable portions of Section 301, 302, 303, 306,
307 of PL 92 -500 and PL 95 -217 if conducted in accordance with the application and conditions
hereinafter set forth. Should your project change, you are required to notify the DWR and submit a new

3. Additional Conditions:
Failure to construct the proposed action as described in the Modification Description and Sketch on
Page 1 of this document and /or violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this
modification approval and may result in criminal and /or civil penalties. This modification approval shall
become null and void unless the above conditions are made conditions of the Federal 404 and /or Coastal
Area Management Act Permit. If the Corps of Engineers requires a formal written modification to the 404
permit for the proposed action, the NC DWR must require a formal written modification to the 401 WQC,
and therefore, this in -field modification is invalid. If additional wetland, stream, buffer impacts for this
project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, 150 linear feet, or one -third of an acre /150 linear feet,
respectively, or if mitigation is required above and beyond the current mitigation requirement for this
project, this in -field modification is invalid and a formal written modification is required.

modification is made upon mutual agreement between DOT and DWR as indicated by the signatures
