Dear Mr. Wojoski:
Chemours—Fayetteville Works —Barrier Wall Project
Mitigation Banking Modification
USACE Aid # SAW-2019-00296
The Chemours Company (Chemours) is requesting modification of the 824 linear feet of mitigation credits
from the Lower Cape Fear Umbrella Mitigation Bank (LCFUMB) to North Carolina Division of Mitigation
Services (DMS). Chemours obtained a letter from LCFUMB on February 7, 2022 reserving the 824 mitigation
credits. Leading up to the approved 401/404 permit GeoServices continued to discuss the availability of
credits and requested payment instructions from LCFUMB. After approval of the permits Chemours
transmitted the permits to LCFUMB and was notified via email the credits are not available at this time and
credits would have to be purchased from another mitigation bank. Chemours then requested additional
credits from DMS to replace the credits requested from LCFUMB. DMS requested the 401 and 404 permit
be modified to reflect DMS being the sole provider of credits. The US Army Corp of Engineers issued the
revised permit on October 7, 2022.
Chemours is requesting the 401 permit be modified to remove LCFUMB from the permit and DMS be the
sole provider of mitigation credits in the amount of 4,597 linear feet. Please reach out to me if you have
questions related to the request.
