This project has been assigned the file number SAW-2023-02138 and is known as Swackhammer Dredge. This file number should be referenced in all correspondence with this office. A review of the information provided indicates that the proposed work would include dredging. The project area for this determination includes a 0.31 acre(s) area which is illustrated on the enclosed site plans/maps. The project involves impacts to 0.31 acre of Lake Norman for dredging. The project/review area is located in Lake Norman at 1404 Ron Whicker Drive, Catawba, Catawba County, North Carolina, at Latitude 35.675472 and Longitude-80.986200, in Catawba, Catawba County, North Carolina. We have determined that the proposed work is authorized by Regional General Permit 30 Waters of Lakes and Reservoirs pursuant to authorities under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. § 1344). The proposed work must be accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed general permit conditions, any regional conditions, the application materials, and the enclosed plans. If the extent of the project area and/or nature of the authorized impacts to waters are modified, a revised application must be submitted to this office for written approval before work is initiated. Any deviation from the terms and conditions of the permit, or your submitted plans, may subject the permittee to enforcement action. This verification is valid until December 31, 2026, unless the subject general permit(s) is suspended, revoked, or is modified prior to that date such that the activity no longer complies with the terms and conditions of the general permit. Project Specific Special Conditions: 1. Maintenance excavation must not exceed the original dimensions as defined by the original permit or as clearly shown or otherwise defined by existing conditions of the ditches, basins, canals, or channels. Maintenance excavation is allowed only for facilities that are currently serviceable. 2. To avoid potential impacts to fish spawning areas, dredging and excavation activities will not occur during the months of March, April, May, or June of any year. 3. Dredging will be limited to channel ward of the normal pool elevation. Finished depths will not exceed the depth of the receiving waters channel ward of the work. 4. All excavated material will be placed landward of the normal pool elevation contour on high ground and confined by adequate dikes or other retaining structures to prevent erosion and sedimentation into adjacent waters or wetlands. The temporary placement or double handling of excavated or fill material waterward of the normal pool elevation is not authorized. This general permit verification and any associated authorizations does not preclude the necessity to obtain any other Federal, State, or local permits, licenses, and/or certifications, which may be required.
