You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
within or otherwise impact 0.798 acres of 404/wetland and 120 linear feet of stream (30 linear feet
perennial stream impact, and 90 linear feet intermittent stream impact) to construct the proposed sewer
improvements, as described within your application dated December 12, 2006, and received by the N.C.
Division of Water Quality (DWQ) on January 22, 2007. After reviewing your application, we have
decided that the impacts are covered by General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3374 (C3374).

proposed impacts or to conduct impacts to waters as depicted in your application shall expire upon
expiration of the 404 or LAMA 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
