NOTICE OF WITHDRAWAL
Dear Mr. Blaine:
On December 19, 2005, you requested a Minor Variance from the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) for
your project. We wrote to you on April 28, 2006 discussing concerns that we have regarding the design
of the project and stating that it would be placed on hold for three weeks giving you time to address
DWQ's concerns. As of today, DWQ has not received a response containing all the information
requested in the April 28`s letter. Therefore, your file is hereby considered withdrawn and will not be
reviewed until DWQ's earlier concerns are addressed. Once you have collected sufficient information to
have a complete application (please see our April 28, 2006 letter for the missing information), you will
need to reapply for DWQ approval by submitting 5 copies of the complete application.
Please be aware that you have no authorization under Section 401 of the Clear Water Act for this activity
and any work done within waters of the state would be a violation of North Carolina General Statuses and
Administrative Code. Please call Mr. Ian McMillan at 919-715-4631 if you have any questions or
concerns.
Sincerely,
n c 04
