Dear Mr. And Mrs. Allen:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to construct a pier,
platform, gazebo, finger piers, floating dock and two boatlifts as described in your CAMA
Major application dated September 7, 2007. After reviewing your application, we have
decided this impact is below the threshold for written authorization as long as all conditions
of General Water Quality Certification Number 3624 are met. This certification may also be
viewed on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. This Certification allows
you to use the Regional General # 198700056 Permit when issued by the US Army Corps of
Engineers.
This approval is only valid 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 wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre,
compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6) and
(7). This approval shall expire when the corresponding Nationwide Permit expires or as
otherwise provided in the General Certification. For this approval to be valid, you must
follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed
below.
Conditions of Certification:
Upon completion of the project, the applicant shall complete and return the enclosed
"Certification of Completion Form" to notify DWQ that all the work included in the 401
Certification has been completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form
and return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the Division of Water Quality.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may
result in criminal and/or civil penalties. The authorization to proceed with your proposed
impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application and as authorized by this
Certification shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
