Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions-Express Review Program
Dear Mr. Gray:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
within or otherwise impact 0.09 acres of wetlands for the purpose of roadway construction at the subject
property, as described within your application dated April 13, 2007 and accepted into the Express Review
Program on June 7, 2007. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts are covered
by General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3631 (GC3631). The Certification(s) allows you to
use Nationwide Permit(s) 18 when issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers (LTSACE). 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, and Non-
discharge 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 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.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:
1. Impacts Approved
The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all of the other specific and general
conditions of this Certification (or Isolated Wetland Permit) are met. No other impacts are
approved including incidental impacts:
