Nationwide Permit No. 26 (Headwaters and Isolated Waters)
Ms. Margie Mintz
Post Office Box 148
Leland, North Carolina 28451
Dear Ms. Mintz:
Upon your request, on March 25, 1992, Mr. Freddie Hickman from the
Brunswick County Operations and Services Division, and Mr. Rudolf Schiener
from this office, conducted a site visit to determine Department of the Army
Section 404 permit requirements for approximately 700' proposed mosquito
control and water management ditch construction on your property located
between N.C. Highway 87 and S.R. 1416 in Maco, Brunswick County, North
Carolina.
It was determined during this site visit that there were wetlands present
on this site, and the proposed ditch construction would not only alter wetland
conditions on this site, but also influence approximately 3-4 acres of
surrounding properties. For specifics, concerning area of influence, you may
further contact the Soil Conservation Service, Brunswick County Governmental
Center, Hwy. 17, P.O. Box 26, Bolivia, N.C. 28422. You may also reach them at
[phone].
For the purposes of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program,
Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in the
Federal Register on November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits.
Authorization was provided, pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act,
for discharges of dredged or fill material into headwaters and isolated waters
provided:
a. the discharge does not cause the loss of more than 1 acre of waters of
the United States; or
b. the permittee notifies the District Engineer if the discharge would
cause the loss of waters of the United States greater than one but less than
10 acres in accordance with the "Notification" procedures (see below). For
discharges in special aquatic sites, including wetlands, the notification must
also include a delineation of affected specific aquatic sites, including
wetlands; and
c. the discharge, including all attendant features, both temporary and
permanent, is part of a single and complete project.

It has been verified that your proposed work may be authorized under
paragraphs b. and c. above by this nationwide permit. Enclosed is a Pre-
Discharge Notification form which should be completed and returned with a
Section 401 Water Quality Certification from the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management (DEM). Please contact Mr. Jim Gregson, DEM, at
telephone [phone], for procedures on obtaining this certification.
Failure to obtain this authorization automatically results in a denial of your
proposal. Once all necessary information is received a permit decision will
be reached within 30 days.
This verification will be valid for 2 years from the date of this letter
unless the nationwide authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. Also,
this verification will remain valid for the 2 years if, during that period,
the nationwide permit authorization is reissued without modification or the
activity complies with any subsequent modification of the nationwide permit
authorization. If during the 2 years, the nationwide permit authorization
expires or is suspended or revoked, or is modified, such that the activity
would no longer comply with the terms and conditions of the nationwide permit,
activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are under
contract to commence in reliance upon the nationwide permit will remain
authorized provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the date of
the nationwide permit's expiration, modification or revocation, unless
discretionary authority has been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify,
suspend, or revoke the authorization.
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Schiener, Wilmington Field
Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone [phone].
