Dear Mr. Moore:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to construct a pier with kayak
launches and boardwalk as described in your CAMA Major application dated June 6, 2008. After
reviewing your application, we have decided these impacts are below the threshold for written
authorization as long as all conditions of General Water Quality Certification Number 3687 (GC3687) is
met. This certification may also be viewed on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands. This
Certification allows you to use the Regional General # 198700056 Permit when issued by the US Army
Corps of Engineers.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that is described in your application. If you change
your project, you must notify us and you may 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 wetland fills for this project (now or in the future)
exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H .0506 (h) (6)
and (7). This approval shall expire when the corresponding Nationwide Permit expires or as otherwise
provided in the General Certification. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed
in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.
Conditions of Certification:
1) Upon completion of the project, the applicant shall complete and return the enclosed
"Certification of Completion Form" to notify DWQ that all the work included in the 401
Certification has been completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form and
return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the Division of Water Quality.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result in
criminal and/or civil penalties.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory hearing.
You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing, send a written
petition, which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the Office of
Administrative Hearings, 6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, N.C. 27699-6714. This certification and its
conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
