Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Tripp:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to perform
maintenance dredging of the basin and access channel, install a bulkhead, retaining wall, two boat slips
(one with a boatlift) and deck at the subject property, as described within your CAMA application dated
March 25, 2008 and received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Wilmington Regional Office
(WiRO) on March 28, 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: htip://h2o.enr.state.ne.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 may be 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:

the footprint of the impacts depicted in the application. All construction activities, including the
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
occur.
