CERTIFIED MAIL - RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED

Dear Mr. Roberson:
On March 22, 2002 the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) was notified by receipt of your application
regarding your plan to fill wetlands for the purpose of constructing the City of Rocky Mount landfill in
Edgecombe County. Approval from DWQ is required to disturb these wetlands. Please provide 7 copies of the
following information and refer to the DWQ # listed above in your reply. In particular as described in 15A
NCAC 2B .0502, we will require you to locate all streams and ponds on the property. Please show these on
maps of suitable scale (for instance V = 100 feet) so we can begin to determine your projects' compliance with
15A NCAC 2H.0500.
1. Are any stream buffers as described in the Tar-Pamilco buffer rules (15A NCAC 213.0259)
located on this property?
2. Are there isolated wetlands found on the site as noted in the application (i.e., has the US Army
Corps of Engineers confirmed that these wetlands are isolated?) If so, we will need to publish a
public notice and receive public comment before an approval can be issued, and
3. A mitigation plan will be needed since total wetland impact exceeds one acre.
Please telephone me at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions or would require copies of our rules or
procedural materials. This project will remain on hold as incomplete in accordance with 15A NCAC 2H
.0505(c). The processing time for this application will begin when this information is received. If we do not
hear from you by writing within three (3) weeks we will assume you no longer want to pursue the project and
will consider it withdrawn.
incerely,
