Dear Mr. Peed:
Subject:' Propos4ed Fill in Wetlands or Waters
Farm buildings and crop production
Beaufort County
DEM Project•# 92641
Upon review of your request for Water Quality Certification
to place fill material in 1.0 acres of wetlands or waters for
farm buildings and crop production located at SR 1912 and SR 1002
in Beaufort County, we have determined that the proposed fill can
be covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 2671 issued
January 21, 1992. 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.
This certification does not necessarily exempt this project from
regulatory provisions of the Farm Bill.
If you have any questions, please contact John Dorney at
919/733-1786.
Sincerely,
reston Howard, J P.E.

MEMORANDUM
TO: John Dorney, Division of Environmental Management,
Water Quality Planning, DEHNR
FROM: Richard B. Hamilton
Assistant Director
DATE: December 8, 1992
SUBJECT: Division of Environmental Management 401
Certification for Mr. Floyd Peed, South Creek,
Beaufort County, North Carolina.
Professional biologists from our staff have reviewed the
subject document and conducted a field investigation on November
24, 1992 for the purpose of assessing project impacts on wildlife
and fisheries resources. This correspondence is provided in
accordance with certain provisions of the Fish and Wildlife
Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661 et
seq.) and the North Carolina General Statutes (G.S. 113-131 et
seq.).
The applicant is requesting authorization to install
drainage ditches, construct farm outbuildings and develop the
remaining area for agricultural production on seven acres of what
was until recently, forested wetland. The property location is
approximately one-half mile east of South Creek on the north side
of Highway 33. The area supported a mature mixed pine/hardwood
stand, predominated by loblolly pine, sweetgum and a variety of
oak species. Due to current site development activities, what
the understory plant composition was is indeterminable. The site
provided habitat for black bear, white-tailed deer, gray
squirrel, raccoon, other small mammals, reptiles and tree canopy
songbird species. The proposed development will further
fragment a contiguous forested wetland environment.
Based-upon document review and site visit, we have
determined that the proposed development for agricultural

purposes would be inconsistent with current WRC guidelines for
wetland habitat conservation. Therefore, it is our
recommendation that an alternate site, not adversely impacting
wetland wildlife habitat be selected for the development and that
the water quality certification be denied.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this
project. If we can provide further assistance, please call on
us.
