Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Alexander,
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions to impact 485 sqaure feet of 404
wetlands to construct a single family dwelling as described in your application received by the N.C.
Division of Water Resources (DWR) on October 30, 2014. After reviewing your application, we
have decided that the impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3890
(GC 3890).
This Certification allows you to use the Nationwide Permit 18 (NW 18) when issued by the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers and the CAMA permit when issued by the Division of Coastal
Management. In addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required federal,
state or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion
and Sediment Control, Non - discharge, and stormwater regulations. Also, this approval to proceed
with your proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application shall
expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit. This Certification can also be found on line at:
http.//portal ncdenr ori4/web /wq /swp /ws /401 /certsandpermrts.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change
your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application. If the
property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter and is
thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total fills for this project (now or in the
future) exceed one acre of wetland or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory mitigation may be
required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.
