construction activities that receive authorization from the State

A review of your application received January 21, 1987, on
behalf of the Town of Holden Beach, for a Department of the Army
permit to grade beach sand along approximately 6 miles of Atlantic
Ocean beachfront in Holden Beach, Brunswick County, North
Carolina, indicates it to be a candidate for Federal authorization

Carolina Division of Coastal Management. Comments from Federal
review agencies will be furnished to the State.
If your application must be withdrawn from this general permit

9. PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
The Town of Holden Beach in response to recent severe storm events with
accompanying erosion is requesting that a CAMA permit be issued which will
allow the town to issue a letter of authorization to all citizens who request
permission to bulldoze.
At the present time there are structures along the beach front which can
qualify as threatened (foundation 20' from erosion escarpment). There are
also those which have too much land between the escarpment and the
foundation to be considered threatened.
This permit would allow the town officials to allow bulldozing on a case-by-case
basis whenever individual property owners request it. Landowners with
threatened structures can get a quick permission at the present time through
emergency procedures. Others must go through the longer CAMA minor permit
process.
The Town proposes to allow for a dune face replacement approximately 16' wide
and 8' high along the six miles of beach.
10. ANTICIPATED IMPACTS:
The proposed activities should be timed to avoid periods of turtle nesting.
Additionally, it has been stated that the substitution of this procedure for the
LAMA minor permit will reduce the cost of administering the program. No
Town funds or equipment will be involved in carrying out the work.

Dear Mr. Mills:
Enclosed is the application of the Town of Holden Beach,
represented by Mayor-Pro-Tem Gay M. Atkins, for a Department of
the Army permit and a State Water Quality Certification to grade
beach sand along approximately 6 miles of Atlantic Ocean
beachfront in Holden Beach, Brunswick 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 March 23, 1987, the District Engineer
will deem that waiver has occurred.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Ernest Jahnke,
telephone [phone].
