Dear Mr. Benteen:
On September 28, 2007 the Division of Water Quality received the application package for open water impacts
for the above project. The fee structure for 401 Permits has changed. Please see below and remit an additional
$40.00. DWQ acknowledges the receipt of an internal transfer in the amount of $200.
Important notice: 401 Certification/Isolated Wetlands Permits Fee Increase -The North Carolina General
Assembly approved an increase for application fees for all regulatory programs administered by DWQ,
effective July 1, 2007. However, please note that this does not mean that the increased application fees
for the 401 Certification/Isolated Wetlands Permit Programs will be retroactive to July 1, 2007.. The
Director of DWQ determined that the fee increase will specifically become effective for the 401
Program on September 1, 2007. All applications received as of September 1, 2007 will be subject to the
new fee schedule.
The fee for applications is $240 for projects impacting less than an acre of wetland and less than 1501inear feet
of streams (whether intermittent or perennial). For projects impacting one or more acres of wetland or 150 or
more feet of streams (whether intermittent or perennial) the fee is $570.
