On May 27, 2009, the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) received your application dated

tributaries, and 1.04 acres of Zonel and 0.92 acres of Zone 2 riparian buffers for the
purpose of wetland, stream, and riparian buffer restoration. The DWQ has received
correspondence from the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) that they are discussing
potential modifications to your project with the Division of Coastal Management. It is our
understanding that the USACE is establishing a meeting to discuss potential
modifications to your project. The DWQ will need to review any modification or

unless we receive the additional information requested below, we will have to move
toward denial of your application as required by 15A NCAC 2H .0506 and 15A NCAC
