You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
within or otherwise impact 312.5 square feet (0.0071 acres) of open waters below normal pool lake level,
and 312.5 square feet (0.0071 acres) above normal pool lake level for the purpose of shoreline
stabilization along 125 linear feet of shoreline at the subject property, as described within your application
dated November 24, 2008 and received by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on December 3,
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 Regional
Permit(s) 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

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:
