This project was referenced to the Corps of Engineers after 75
percent of the line was installed. The Corps requested permit
application, but did not require cessation of construction.
Construction has been completed on the project.
The Division of Land Quality and Eric Alsmeyer have both been
satisfied kth the project and site restoration. For this reason I
recommend the state waive its right to issue a water quality
certification:.

Dear Mr. Vick:
Reference is made to your meeting of April 10, 1991, with Mr. Ken Jolly of
my staff on your property immediately west of S.R. 1426 (Sykes Road) and
Spring Branch near the Corinth Community, Nash County, North Carolina. The
purpose of this meeting was to discuss your recent excavation and fill
activities on the site. The property is located adjacent to, and above the
headwaters of, Spring Branch.

.The meeting revealed that your.excavation of a.pond and construction of an
access drive across an unnamed tributary to Spring Branch has adversely
modified approximately 6,840 square feet (0.16 acre) of wetlands and waters
subject to our regulatory jurisdiction pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean
Water Act. For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program-
Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330, published in--the-
Federal Register on November 13, 1986, lists nationwide permits.

non-tidal-rivers, streams, and their lakes and impoundments, including
adjacent wetlands, that are located-above the.headwaters and other non=tidal
waters of the United States,.including adjacent wetlands, that are not a part
of a surface-tributary system to interstate waters ..or navigable waters of the
United States.
Your excavation and fill activities within waters of the United States,
involving adverse modification to less than an acre of waters and wetlands
(0.16 acre), are authorized by nationwide permit provided that you strictly
comply with the enclosed conditions. As discussed with you, and in accordance
with Condition "e" of the enclosure, q: 1 fi7.1 must be stabilized and
