Dear Mr. Barbour:
Attached hereto is a copy of Certification No. WQC005752 issued to Dennis Barbour and Island Marina
Enterprises LLC, dated March 10, 2023. This Certification replaces the Certification issued on January 12,
2016. This approval is for the purpose and design described in your renewal application If you change
your project, you must notify the Division and you may be required to submit a new application package
with the appropriate fee. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification
and is responsible for complying with all conditions. [15A NCAC 02H .0507(d)(2)].
This Water Quality Certification does not relieve the permittee of the responsibility to obtain all other
required Federal, State, or Local approvals before proceeding with the project, including those required
by, but not limited to, Sediment and Erosion Control, Non -Discharge, Water Supply Watershed, and
Trout Buffer regulations.
This Water Quality Certification neither grants nor affirms any property right, license, or privilege in any
lands or waters, or any right of use in any waters. This Water Quality Certification does not authorize
any person to interfere with the riparian rights, littoral rights, or water use rights of any other person
and does not create any prescriptive right or any right of priority regarding any usage of water. This
Water Quality Certification shall not be interposed as a defense in any action respecting the
determination of riparian or littoral rights or other rights to water use. No consumptive user is deemed
by virtue of this Water Quality Certification to possess any prescriptive or other right of priority with
respect to any other consumptive user regardless of the quantity of the withdrawal or the date on which
the withdrawal was initiated or expanded.
Upon the presentation of proper credentials, the Division may inspect the property.

1. The effluent water from the dredge spoil should not (if at all practicable) be released into open
shellfish waters. The release of the effluent of dredge spoil from a closed shellfish area into open
shellfish water will cause a (temporary) closure of that water which in turn is a degradation of
waters and a violation of tidal salt water quality standards for Class SA Waters. Shellfish Sanitation
(252.726.6827) and the Division of Water Resources (910.796.7215) must be notified if this is to
occu r.
