DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY WILMINGTON DISTRICT, CORPS OF ENGINEERS P.O. BOX 1890 WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA 28402-1890- IN REPLY REFER TO September 28, 1992 Regulatory Branch Action ID. 199203238 and Nationwide Permit No. 14 (Road Crossing) Ms. Carla Hughes Post Office Box 144 Ashe, North Carolina 28420 Dear Ms. Hughes: Reference your application of September 15, 1992, for Department of the Army authorization to mechanically land clear and discharge fill material into wetlands for the purpose of a minor road crossing to access a residential lot on your property located off N.C. Highway 130, approximately 1 mile north of the Brunswick/Columbus County line, adjacent to the Waccamaw River, near old Dock, Columbus County, North Carolina. 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, pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of 1899 and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was provided for fills for roads crossing waters of the United States (including wetlands and other special aquatic sites) provided: a. The width of the fill is limited to the minimum necessary for the actual crossing; b. The fill placed in waters of the United States is limited to a filled area of no more than one-third acre. Furthermore, no more than a total of 200 linear feet of the fill for the roadway can occur in special aquatic sites, including wetlands; C. The crossing is culverted, bridged or otherwise designed to prevent the restriction of, and to withstand, expected highflows and the movement of aquatic organisms; d. The crossing, including all attendant features, both temporary and permanent, is part of a single and complete project for crossing of a water of the United States; and e. For fills in special aquatic sites, including wetlands, the permittee notifies the District Engineer in accordance with the "Notification" general condition. pb . -2- Your work is authorized by this nationwide permit provided it is accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions. This nationwide permit does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any required State or local approval. 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 Ms. Jean Benton, Wilmington Field Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone (919) 251-4511. Sincerely, G.
