Dear Mr. Bazemore:
You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to construct
an upland basin, a boat ramp, bulkhead, docking facility and maintenance dredge0.269 acres of shallow
bottom for an amenity for the James Creek Subdivision, as described within your CAMA application
dated April 9, 2009 and received by the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) Wilmington Regional Office
(WiRO) on April 14, 2009. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts are
covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 3642 (GC 3642). This Certification can also be
found on line at: http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/ncwetlands/ceits.html. The Certifications allows you to use
the CAMA Major Permit when issued by the Division of Coastal Management. 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. Also, this approval to proceed with your proposed impacts or to conduct
impacts to waters as 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 on the following pages.
