Dear Mr. Crees:
On September 26, 2007 the Division of Water Quality received your application package for wetland and
stream impacts for the above referenced project. DWQ is returning the check as the fee structure for 401
Permits has changed. Please see below and remit $570.00.
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 150
linear feet of streams (whether intermittent or perennial). For projects impacting one cr more acres of
wetland or 150 or more feet of streams (whether intermittent or perennial) the fee is $570.
® DWQ requires the name of an individual shown as "Owner/Applicant".
If you have any questions regarding this letter please do not hesitate to call Ian McMillan or me at ~33-
