MEMORANDUM TO: Bill Mills
WATER QUALITY SECTION
FROM: D. Rex Gleason OPERATIONS BRANCH
SUBJECT: 401 Certification
Placement of Fill Material in Wetlands
Adjacent to McMullen Creek
McMullen Creek Market (Pineville)
Mecklenburg County, NC
This Office has reviewed the subject proposal for the
placement of 140 cubic yards of fill material below the ordinary
high water elevation in a 120 foot-long by 62 foot-wide wetland
area. The purpose of the filling is to provide high ground for
the location of a commercial shopping center (McMullen Creek
Market).
Based on our review, we anticipate no adverse effect on
water quality except during the filling operation when turbidity
would be expected to increase. Fish and wildlife habitats in
the immediate area of construction will probably be disturbed;
however, this should be relatively insignificant. We,
therefore, have no major objection to the proposal.
If you have questions, please advise.

July 2, 1987
PUBLIC NOTICE
EQUITY PROPERTIES GROUP, INCORPORATED/CNC CENTERS, 1950 Landings
Boulevard, Suite 307, Sarasota, Florida 33581, has applied for a Department
of the Army permit TO PLACE FILL MATERIAL IN WETLANDS ADJACENT TO MCMULLEN
CREEK ASSOCIATED WITH CONSTRUCTION OF MCMULLEN CREEK MARKET, PINEVILLE,
Mecklenburg County, North Carolina.
The following description of the work is taken from data provided by the
applicant and from observations made during an onsite visit by a
representative of the Corps of Engineers. Plans submitted with the
application show the proposed placement of approximately 140 cubic yards of
fill material below the elevation of ordinary high water in a 120-foot-long,
62-foot-wide wetland area. Within the area are cottonwood, ash, button bush,
willow and spike-rush. The adjacent highground is developed and surface storm
runoff accumulates within the area to be filled. To mitigate the loss of the
wetlands, the applicant proposes to set aside and vegetate a 0.34 acre wetland
area adjacent to McMullen Creek. The purpose of the work is to provide and
arrange high ground for construction of a commercial shopping area. Plans
showing the work are included with this public notice.
The State of North Carolina will review this public notice to determine
the need for the applicant to obtain any required State authorization. No
Department of the Army permit will be issued until the coordinated State
viewpoint on the proposal has been received and reviewed by this agency, nor
will a Department of the Army permit be issued until the North Carolina
Division of Environmental Management has determined the applicability of a
Water Quality Certificate as required by PL 92-500.
This application is being considered pursuant to Section 404(b) of the
Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C. 1344). Any person may request, in writing within
the comment period specified in the notice, that a public hearing be held to
consider this application. Requests for public hearing shall state, with
particularity, the reasons for holding a public hearing.
The District Engineer has consulted the latest published version of the'
National Register of Historic Places for the presence or absence of registered
properties, or properties listed as being eligible for inclusion therein, and
this worksite is not registered property or property listed as being eligible

-2-
for inclusion in the Register. Consultation of the National Register
constitutes the extent of cultural resource investigations by the District
Engineer, and he is otherwise unaware of the presence of such resources.
Presently, unknown archeological, scientific, prehistorical, or historical
data may be lost or destroyed by work under the requested permit.
The District Engineer has determined, based on a review of data furnished
by the applicant and onsite observations, that the activity will not affect
species, or their critical habitat, designated as endangered or threatened
pursuant to the Endangered Species Act of 1973.
The decision whether to issue a permit will be based on an evaluation of
the probable impacts, including cumulative impacts, of the proposed activity
and its intended use on the public interest. Evaluation of the probable
impacts which the proposed activity may have on the public interest requires a
careful weighing of all those factors which become relevant in each particular
case. The benefits which reasonably may be expected to accrue from the
proposal must be balanced against its reasonably foreseeable detriments. The
decision whether to authorize a proposal, and if so the conditions under which
it will be allowed to occur, are therefore determined by the outcome of the
general balancing process. That decision should reflect the national concern
for both protection and utilization of important resources. All factors which
may be relevant to the proposal must be considered including the cumulative
effects thereof. Among those are conservation, economics, aesthetics, general
environmental concerns, wetlands, cultural values, fish and wildlife values,
flood hazards, flood plain values, land use, navigation, shore erosion and
accretion, recreation, water supply and conservation, water quality, energy
needs, safety, food and fiber production, mineral needs, considerations of
property ownership, and, in general, the needs and welfare of the people. For
activities involving the placement of dredged or fill materials in waters of
the United States, a permit will be denied if the discharge that would be
authorized by such permit would not comply with the Environmental Protection
Agencies' 404(b)(1) guidelines. Subject to the preceding sentence and any
other applicable guidelines or criteria, a permit will be granted unless the
District Engineer determines that it would be contrary to the public interest.
Generally, the decision whether to issue this Department of the Army
permit will not be made until the North Carolina Division of Environmental
Management (DEM) issues, denies, or waives State certification required by
Section 401 of the Clean Water Act. The DEM considers whether or not the
proposed activity will comply with Sections 301, 302, 306, and 307 of the
Clean Water Act. The application and this public notice for the Department of
the Army permit serves as application to the DEM for certification.
Additional information regarding the Clean Water Act certification may be
reviewed at the offices of the Environmental Operations Section, North

i
-3-
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Salisbury Street, Archdale
Building, Raleigh, North Carolina. Copies of such materials will be furnished
to any person requesting copies upon payment of reproduction costs.
The North Carolina Division of Environmental Management plans to take
final action in the issuance of the Clean Water Act certification on or after
August 11, 1987.
All persons desiring to make comments regarding the application for Clean
Water Act certification should do so in writing delivered to the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management, Post Office Box 27687, Raleigh,
North Carolina 27611-7687, on or before August 5, 1987, Attention:
Mr. William Mills.
Written comments pertinent to the proposed work, as outlined above, will
be received in this office, Attention: Mr. Hugh Heine, until 4:15 p.m.,
August 3, 1987, or telephone [phone].

Dear Mr. Mills:
Enclosed is the application of Equity Properties Group,
Incorporated/CNC Centers, represented by Murchison, Guthrie and
Davis, for a Department of the Army permit and a State Water
Quality Certification to place fill material in wetlands adjacent
to McMullen Creek associated with construction of McMullen Creek
Market, Pineville, Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. Your
receipt of this letter verifies your acceptance of a valid request
for certification in accordance with Section 325.2(b)(ii) of our
administrative regulations.
We are considering authorization of the proposed activity
pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, and we have
determined that a water quality certification may be required
under the provisions of Section 401 of the same law. A Department
of the Army permit will not be granted until the certification has
been obtained or waived.
In accordance with our administrative regulations, 60 days
after receipt of a request for certification is considered a
reasonable time for State action. Therefore, if your office has
not acted on the request by August 29, 1987, the District Engineer
will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Hugh Heine,
telephone [phone].
Sincerely,

Your assistance in expediting this Application will be most
appreciated. As I am sure you are aware, construction in the
area is well underway, the plans for this particular site have
been long approved by other agencies, and further delay is quite
expensive to the land owner.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Sincerely,
MURCHISON, GUTHRIE & DAVIS
Robert E. Henderson
