Approval of 401 Water Quality Certification (GC3642) with Additional Conditions
Dear Mr. Frazer:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to place fill material within
or otherwise impact 0.041 acres of waters to construct a 17 slip marina as described in your
application received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) 401 Oversight/Express Review
Permitting Unit on June 19, 2008 and final plan modification received on September 16, 2008.
After reviewing your application, we have determined that the Division of Water Quality (DWQ)
General Water Quality Certification Number 3642 covers these water impacts. This
Certification allows you to General Permit No. 198000291 when issued by the US Army Corps
of Engineers (USACE). In addition, you should get or otherwise comply with any other federal,
state and local requirements before you go ahead with your project including (but not limited to)
erosion and sediment control regulations and CAMA. 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 and any additional conditions listed below.
The Additional Conditions of the Certification are:
1. Impacts Approved

3. Water Quality Certification
The proposed project must comply with all of the conditions of General Water Quality
Certification (GC) 3642.
4. No Impacts Beyond those in Application
No waste, spoil, solids, or fill of any kind shall occur in wetlands, waters, or riparian areas
beyond the footprint of the impacts depicted in the Pre-construction Notification. All
construction activities, including the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of
sediment and erosion control Best Management Practices, shall be performed so that no
violations of state water quality standards, statutes, or rules occur.
5. No Impacts to Zone 1
No impacts shall occur to Zone 1 of the protected riparian buffers (except for uses and activities
designated as "exempt" within 15A NCAC 02B .023 3), unless otherwise approved by the
DWQ.
6. Diffuse Flow
All constructed stormwater conveyance outlets shall be directed and maintained as diffuse
flow at non-erosive velocities through the protected stream buffers such that it will not re-
concentrate before discharging into a stream as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0233 (5). If
this is not possible, it may be necessary to provide stormwater facilities that are considered to
remove nitrogen. This may require additional approval from this Office.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may
result in criminal and/or civil penalties. The authorization to proceed with your proposed
impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application and as authorized by this
Certification, shall expire upon expiration of the 404 or CAMA Permit.
