Dear Ms. Wallace:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions, to construct two new
production wells, temporarily impact 0.007 acres of jurisdictional wetlands for a utility line and
permanently impact a total of 0.033 acres of jurisdictional wetlands for a driveway crossing and
power line maintenance as you described in your application dated April 9, 2009 and additional
information received by the Division of Water Quality Wilmington Regional Office on May 14,
2009. After reviewing your application, we have decided this fill is below the threshold for
written authorization as long as all conditions of General Water Quality Certification Number
3699 are met, which may be viewed on our website at http://h2o.enr.state.nc.us/ncwetlands.
This Certification allows you to use Nationwide Permit 12 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 regulations.
This approval is only valid 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 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 on the following page.
