Rachel and Jeff,

On March 4, 2016, the Division of Water Resources (Division) received your application dated February 29, 2016,
requesting a 401 Water Quality Certification from the Division for the subject project. The Division has determined that
your application is incomplete and cannot be processed. The application is on hold until all of the following items are
addressed:

1.The proposed project is in close proximity to a neighboring property. Please confirm that all activities associated

with this project, including construction, excavation, and planting will occur solely on Jordan Street LLC property
and that all equipment used during the project will be operated from Jordan Street LLC property. If work or
equipment is to occur, or be used, on a neighboring property, the appropriate authorization must be provided to
this office.

2.This office is concerned with the stability of the proposed fill slope on the outside meander bend, particularly

below the baseflow elevation. Given the slope angle and stabilization measures proposed, it is unclear whether
the fill slope will remain stable over the long-term. Please provide justification for the design and any additional
information relevant to the long-term stability of the fill slope.

Pursuant to Title 15A NCAC 02H .0502(c), the applicant shall furnish all of the above requested information for the
proper consideration of the application. If all of the requested information is not received within 30 calendar days, of
receipt of his email, the Division will be unable to approve the application and it will be returned. The return of this
project will necessitate reapplication to the Division for approval, including a complete application package and the
appropriate fee.

You may provide your response via email of US mail to the address noted below.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
