APPROVAL_ of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions and Authorization Certificate per the Catawba River
Buffer Protection Rules (15A NCAC 2B.0243)
Dear Sirs:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to impact 600 square feet of riparian buffer for the purpose of
stabilizing a shoreline on Lot 10 Smithstone subdivision in Lincoln County as described in your application received November 13, 2001.
After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3280, which can
be downloaded from our web site at httD: //h2o.enr.state.nc.us /ncwetlands. This Certification allows you to use Regional Permit Number
198200030 when the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) issues it. This letter shall also act as your approved Authorization Certificate
for impacts to the protected riparian buffers as required under 15A NCAC 2B .0243(8). In addition, you should get any other federal, state
or local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Non - Discharge and
Water Supply Watershed regulations. Also this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 permit expires unless otherwise
specified in the General Certification.
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 in writing and you may be required to send us a new application for a new certification. If the property is sold, the new owner
must be given a copy of the Certification and approval letter and is thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total v.:etland
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). For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and those listed below.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing. You must act within 60 days
of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina
General Statutes to the Office of Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699 -6714. This certification and its
conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. If you have any
questions, please telephone Pete Colwell in the DWQ Mooresville Regional Office at 704 - 663 -6040 or Todd St. John in Raleigh at 919-
