A Preliminary Jurisdictional Determination request package is being submitted under a separate cover. The purpose of the proposed project is to establish a residential development and related infrastructure located on the north side of Covered Bridge Road, west of Bobbitt Road, in Clayton, Johnston County, North Carolina. The project also qualifies for coverage under the corresponding Water Quality General Certification 4256 (GC 4256) from the NC Division of Water Resources (DWR). The project does not meet any circumstances or thresholds identified in items a) through j) of GC 4256. Therefore, written authorization for the project is not required from the DWR, provided all activity -specific and general conditions included on pages 4 through 18 are met. A courtesy copy of the application is attached. A list of the attachments to the online Pre -Construction Notification Application and those attachments follow this letter. Your review of this project is greatly appreciated. If you have any questions or require additional information, please contact me at (919) 422-3605 or burdette@nrconsultnc.com.
