Hi Rick,
After my review, I need further clarification on the avoidance and minimization described in the PCN
before I can move forward:
Avoidance & Minimization for Wetland Impacts - Please provide more details regarding the need for
wetland impact W1 on the PCN for this project [15A NCAC 02H .0506(f) and (g)]. This Office believes
that the wetland impacts can be moved or reconfigured to minimize the impacts. Please revise the
plans to avoid the impacts or provide a detailed explanation of why this plan for the activity cannot
be practically accomplished, reduced, or reconfigured to avoid impacts to these impacts.
• Please describe in detail why the gravel yard footprint needs to encroach 0.294 acres into
wetland A and why the adjacent vacant parcels owned by Wake Stone cannot be utilized for
gravel storage to avoid impacts to the wetland feature.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you,

Hi Zach,

Not sure why that came through to you in black and white. I've attached a PDF version of the same
packet we submitted. I suspect Laserfiche Forms glitched or something.
Let me know if you have any questions or need anything else for your review.
Thanks,

Hi Rick,
The PCN attachments packet in Laserfiche for the Goldrock Asphalt Plant is in black & white, most
likely due to a LF upload error. Can you please provide a full color copy (via email or LF Forms if large
file)? It is difficult to differentiate some of the features on the maps/aerials and pictures.
If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you,

CAUTION: External email. Do not click links or open attachments unless verified. Report suspicious emails with the

Good morning,
North Carolina Division of Water Resources (NCDWR): After review of the submitted NWP-39 PCN
for the subject project dated April 14, 2023, and the enclosed Nationwide Permit 39 Water Quality
General Certification (GC) 4246, dated December 18, 2020, it appears that an individual 401 water
quality certification (WQC) is required from the NCDWR for the proposed activities. The ePCN
received by our office on April 14, 2023, provided the 9 required elements for an individual WQC.
This permit application/ePCN, dated April 14, 2023 constitutes the Corps initial receipt of the 401
WQC application. Unless NCDWR is granted a time review extension, a waiver will be deemed to
occur if the NCDWR fails to act on this request for certification within 120 days from the date of the
complete 401 request. The reasonable period of time (RPOT) for you to act on this WQC request is
120 calendar days. The date upon which the waiver will occur if you fail or refuse to act on the
certification is August 14, 2023.
If our assumption is incorrect and this proposed activity does not require an Individual WQC, please
respond to this notification as soon as possible in order for our office to meet the Corps' Nationwide
Permit review requirement.
Applicant/Consultant: Please note, should we finalize our review prior to receiving the 401 WQC,
you will receive a provisional general permit verification from the Corps. Once a 401 WQC is issued
or waived by the DWR, the Corps will provide you with a final general permit verification. Your
proposed work shall not commence until after the 401 WQC has been issued or waived AND until a
final general permit verification has been provided to you.
Thank you,
Billy
