Dear Mr. Meshaw:
Onslow County
DWQ Project #: 09 0350
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions to impact 52 linear feet of stream to
replace the existing culvert as described in your 401 PCN application dated March 30, 2009. After
reviewing your application, we have decided these impacts are below the threshold for written
authorization as long as all conditions of General Water Quality Certification Number 3687 (GC 3687)
are met. This certification may also be viewed on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands.
This Certification allows you to use the Nation Wide (NW) Permit 3 when issued by the US Army
Corps of Engineers.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that is 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 these Certifications and approval letter and is
thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in
the future) exceed one acre, compensatory mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H
.0506 (h) (6) and (7). This approval shall expire when the corresponding Nationwide Permit expires or
as otherwise provided in the General Certification. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.
Conditions of Certification:
1) Upon completion of the project, the applicant shall complete and return the enclosed
"Certification of Completion Form" to notify DWQ that all the work included in the 401
Certification has been completed. The responsible party shall complete the attached form and
return it to the 401/Wetlands Unit of the Division of Water Quality.
Violations of any condition herein set forth may result in revocation of this Certification and may result
in criminal and/or civil penalties.
