Robin ----original message---- From: jtaylorCsegi.us Date: Aug 12, 2008 11:44 AM To: <robin.w.smith@ncmail.net> Subj: 401 permit application and stormwater permit application Hello: I have a client (the project discussed by Craig Bromby where the wetland is a no-significant nexus wetland that we are using the isolated permit to fill along Hwy 17 in Hampstead, New Hanover County) who will be facing another issue with their project. I met with DWQ 401 and stormwater staff in Wilmington re: this project. 401 states "policy" and the new PCN (that will take affect in September) requires them to have an issued stormwater plan prior to issuing a 401 certification/permit. The stormwater staff stated he could not issue a stormwater permit where stormwater structures were located within a wetland since he would need a 401 cert/permit prior to issuing the stormwater permit in those (perhaps limited) instances. I see a catch 22 where my client will be (once we resolve any remaining issues) will still be in a waiting pattern, unable to get either permit. Since 401 and stormwater both do not like receiving different plans for their permit applications for the same project, is it possible to have a joint application? Say Part A for Stormwater and Part B for 401? 1 of 2 8/28/2008 10:09 AM [Fwd: Fw: 401 permit application and stormwater permit application] This way each consultant could still retain their work, 401 and Stormwater would have the same plan to work from re: their permit application, and everyone would avoid the Catch 22 situation... I am hoping we can all get together to avoid a potential problem that would be time consuming and may The a bad situation for DENR, the public, and for those who consult in those fields. I have contacted Ed Beck in Wilmington and left messages in Raleigh DWQ. Since 401 and Stormwater consult on each other's permits anyway, I thought a joint (Part A & Part B) application might be appropriate, and each Part could be independent of the other--you could allow stormwater section (Part A) to be completed separately when a stormwater plan does not require a wetland permit (leaving Part B with a checkbox stating "No wetland permit required"). Thanks for your time, and I apologize for taking up precious space in your in-box.
