Dear Mr. Hobbs:
On October 15, 2008, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your Pre-Construction
Notification (PCN) application to impact approximately 0.418 acres of 404 Wetlands for
construction of a residential subdivision. The DWQ has determined that your application was
incomplete and/or provided inaccurate information as discussed below. The DWQ will require
additional information in order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or
streams on the subject property. Therefore, unless we receive the additional information
requested below, we will have to move toward denial of your application as required by 15A
NCAC 2H .0506 and will place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional
information. Please provide the following information so that we may continue to review your
proj ect.
Additional Information Requested:
1. Please locate any planned sewer lines on the site plan.
2. Please provide a written narrative explaining how you intend to comply with the
Construction Stormwater General Permit NCGO10000 during construction and who will

3. Please re-submit your site plans on full plan sheets at a scale of no smaller than I"=50'
with topographic contours shown.
4. The site plans submitted with the PCN did not include the entire site. Submit site plans

wetlands or streams as required by General Certification 3705 (GC3705).
7. Please provide an agent authorization letter for the application signature.
Deed restrictions or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all retained jurisdictional
wetlands and waters per General Certification 3705 (GC3705). These mechanisms shall

the impacts at this location. Please revise the plans to minimize the impacts.
