Carpenter,Kristi
Subject:Fee Request for DEQ Transportation Permitting Branch - Project Currently on Hold
All,
The automated system sent this information to the primary contact listed on the application when the application was
accepted into our system, but in accordance with the current policy, all parties identified are being notified in the
chance that the primary contact is not currently working standard office hours due to Covid-19.
Please note this fee needs to only be paid by one interested party as the system will allow double payments if they are
made on the same day.
Further, we will process any form of payment outlined below, however our office staff is utilizing working from home
strategies. This means bringing a check directly into the office or mailing a check to our office may result in small delays
in processing. Advance notice of check payment is helpful in reducing the delay times. Online payments are still being
processed as soon as payments clear per normal procedure with electronic check processing incurring no additional
processing fees. Email is the fastest way to reach me if you have any questions or concerns.
We have received your request for Section 401 Approval related to TPB USMC - Repair Camp Davis South Runway, DWR
20211369 Version 2 on 9/23/2022.
This project requires a review fee in order to receive written approval and is currently on hold awaiting that fee before
being released for review and is currently on Public Notice with a comment period end date of 10/29/2022. If we have
not received payment or not heard from you before that date regarding payment your project application will be
rejected for nonpayment of review fee. Upon it’s return to you the application process would need to be initiated again
from the beginning including a new application submittal from the applicant, a new review fee request, and a new Public
Notice Period of 30 days.
