incomplete and cannot be processed. The application is on -hold until all of the following
information is received:
Please provide the Division a copy of your response to March 20, 2017 request for more

this letter.
5. Issuance of a water quality certification for a proposed project requires that existing uses
are not removed or degraded. On December 16, 2016, 2010, the Division issued a Notice
of Violation (NOV) for wetland standard violations as a result of lot fill into a wetland. The
NOV required that the wetland boundary be clearly flagged and for an inspection to be
scheduled with DWR and the USACE. Please provide a response as outlined in the NOV.
Pursuant to Title 15A NCAC 02H .0502(e), 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 in writing within 30 calendar days of receipt of this letter, 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.
Please respond in writing within 30 calendar days of receipt of this letter by sending one copy of all
of the above requested information to my attention at the address below.
Please be aware that you have no authorization under the Water Quality Certification Rules for
this activity and any work done within waters of the state may be a violation of North Carolina
General Statutes and Administrative Code.
