Dear Mr. Bolt:
Coleen H. Sullins, Director
Division of Water Quality
DWQ Project # 08-1173
Jackson County
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
within or otherwise impact 500 square feet of open waters below normal pool lake level, and 100 square
feet above normal pool lake level for the purpose of constructing a rip rap bulkhead to stabilize 100 linear
feet of shoreline at the subject property, as described within your application dated July 28, 2008 and
received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on July 31, 2008. After reviewing your
application, we have decided that the impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification
Number(s) 3693 (GC3693). The Certification(s) allows you to use General Permit Number 30 when
issued by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). 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 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 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.
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:
