Re: Section 401 Water Quality Certification application for North Fork Estates
Dear Mr. Ford:
On October 20, 2008, the North Carolina Division of Water Quality (Division) received your application for a 401
General Water Quality Certification to impact 0.15 acres of lake shoreline to improve lake access at Lot 55 of Crow's
Nest at Belews Landing, Phase III, near Stokesdale NC in Rockingham County. Additional information is required in
order that we may determine your project's compliance with 15A NCAC 2H.0500. The Division will require this
information in order to process your application to impact protected wetlands and/or streams on the subject property.
Therefore, we will place this project on hold as incomplete until we receive this additional information, and if we do not
receive the additional information requested below, we will have to move toward denial of your application as required by
15A NCAC 2H .0506. Please provide the following information so that we may continue to review your project.
1. A site visit conducted on November 26, 2008 indicated that there may be no impacts below the normal
pool elevation. There are no other jurisdictional features within the project area, therefore if there will
be no impacts below the normal pool elevation, no permit will be required. Please clarify the extent of
the impacts below the normal pool elevation so that the Division may determine if a permit is necessary
for this project.
Please respond in writing within 30 calendar days of the date of this letter by sending a copy of this information to Sue
Homewood at the address on this letterhead, and a copy to Ian McMillan N. C. Division of Water Quality, Wetlands/401
Certification Unit, 1650 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-1650. If you will not be able to provide the requested
information within that timeframe, please provide Written confirmation that you intend to provide the requested
information, and include a specific timetable delineating when the requested materials will be provided. If we do not hear
from you in 30 calendar days, we will assume that you no longer want to pursue this project and we will consider the
project as returned.
