Dear Mr. Taylor:
Subject: Proposed Fill in Headwaters or Isolated Wetlands
Proposed fill for septic tank and house construction
Carteret County
Upon review of your request for Water Quality Certification
to place fill material in 0.155 acres of wetlands for septic tank
and house construction, we have determined that the proposed fill
can be covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 2176
issued November 4, 1987. A copy of the General Certification is
attached. This Certification may be used in qualifying for
coverage under Corps of Engineers' Nationwide Permit No. 26.
Further fill beyond the 0.155 acres will require an additional
401 Certification from the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management.
If you have any questions, please contact John Dorney
at 919/733-5083.
Sincerely,
V, p6A'J.

Project # 9106-J
James S. Taylor
Carteret County
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant states that he proposes to
upgrade a septic system. The Pre-discharge Notification form does
not indicate the extent of wetland impacts on the site, however,
plans submitted indicate approximately 1.52 acres of the site has
already been cleared and approximately .155 acres has already
been filled. Apparently this .155 acres is where the house and
septic system are to be located. According to Earnie Jehnke with
the Corps of Engineers, the entire site has hydric soils and is
located above the headwaters of the nearest stream.
On June 28, 1991, the applicant was sent a letter requesting
a completed and correct PDN form and project map. On July 15,
1991 this Office received the same PDN form originally submitted
and sketch of the site.
The project has been reviewed to determine impacts to water
quality. The following comments have been provided.
1. The project will require a 401 Water Quality Certification.
2. The project complies with the General 401 Water Quality
Certification No. 2176 for headwaters and isolated wetlands.
It is recommended the Certification be issued only for the
existing .155 acres of fill. Until the applicant can submit a
complete application and demonstrate he has no practicable
alternatives, the cleared areas on the site which are now
starting to revegetate should be left undisturbed.
