Subject Property: Crystal Cove HOA Canal Dredging Project
Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Schwahn:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to perform
maintenance dredging of the man-made access canal at the subject property, as described within your
CAMA application dated March 3, 2008 and received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
Wilmington Regional Office (WiRO) on March 3, 2008. After reviewing your application, we have
decided that the impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3642 (GC 3642).
This Certification can also be found on line at: http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands/certs.html. The
Certification allows you to use the CAMA Major Permit when issued by the Division of Coastal
Management. In addition, you should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required federal, state or
local permits before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion and Sediment
Control, Non-discharge, and stormwater regulations. Also, this approval to proceed with your
proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application shall expire upon
expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
This approval is for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If you change your
project, you must notify us and you will be required to send us a new application. If the property is sold,
the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter and is thereby responsible for
complying with all conditions. If total fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre of
wetland or 150 linear feet of stream, compensatory mitigation maybe required as described in 15A NCAC
2H .0506 (h). This approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and
any additional conditions listed below.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:
1. Impacts Approved
The following impacts are hereby approved as long as all of the other specific and general
conditions of this Certification (or Isolated Wetland Permit) are met. No other impacts are
approved including incidental impacts:

design, installation, operation, and maintenance of sediment and erosion control Best Management
Practices, shall be performed so that no violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules

Upon completion of all work approved within the 401 Water Quality Certification or applicable
Buffer Rules, and any subsequent modifications, the applicant is required to return the attached
certificate of completion to the 401/Wetlands Unit, North Carolina Division of Water Quality,
