Re: Payment of Invoices for Public Notice
Dear Mr. Lineberger:
Attached herein is an invoice received from The Highlander of Highlands, NC for $44.78, the
Smoky Mountain Times for %50.75 and the Cherokee Scout for $73.44 requesting payment for legal
advertising. The newspaper published Public Notices for an application for an Isolated Wetlands
Permit for the proposed Dillsboro Dam removal in Jackson County in these papers.
Please note that in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H .1303(1), an applicant for an Individual
Certification (for instance, for FERC licenses) shall pay to the department the costs of advertising public
notices required by 15A NCAC 2H .1303 of the Isolated Wetland Rules. We have not yet received a bill
from The Highlander for the public notice. Please pay the papers directly for the advertising and send a
copy of the payment to me at to the Division of Water Quality at 2321 Crabtree Boulevard, Suite, 250,
Raleigh, NC 27604 and refer to the DWQ # listed above.
Please be aware that an Certification for this project will not be issued until payment has been
made for the attached Public Notice. In addition, our 60 day processing time will formally start upon
receipt of notification of payment for the public notices or after the public hearing whichever is the latest
date. If you have any questions please contact me at 919-733-9646.
Sincerely,
JRD/bs
