Waters)
Sampson County Board of Commissioners

Clinton, North Carolina 28328
Dear Sir:
Reference your application of September 23, 1992, for Department of the
Army authorization to impact 2.9 acres of wetlands for the construction of a
sanitary landfill on your property located north of N.C. Highway 24, adjacent
to and above the headwaters of Bearskin Swamp, near Snow Hill, Sampson 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 (NWP).
Authorization was provided, pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act,
for discharges of dredged or fill material greater than 1 but not more than 10
acres into headwaters and isolated waters of the United States. Your work is
authorized by this NWP provided it is accomplished in strict accordance with
the enclosed conditions.
This verification will be valid for 2 years from the date of this letter
unless the NWP authorization is modified, reissued, or revoked. Also, this
verification will remain valid for the 2 years if, during that period, the NWP
authorization is reissued without modification or the activity complies with
any subsequent modification of the NWP authorization. If during the 2 years,
the NWP 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
NWP, activities which have commenced (i.e., are under construction) or are
under contract to commence in reliance upon the NWP will remain authorized
provided the activity is completed within 12 months of the date of the NWP's
expiration, modification or revocation, unless discretionary authority has
been exercised on a case-by-case basis to modify, suspend, or revoke the
authorization.
As is discussed, you should contact the following State agencies to obtain
the required State authorizations prior to starting work: Mr. John Dorney,
North Carolina Division of Environmental Management, telephone [phone].

Notes:
ITEM 15:
A determination of the presence or potential for state- or federally-listed species to occur
on the site was conducted, by a biologist with Sirrine Environmental Consultants, Cary
North Carolina. The determination was performed through a review of records at North
Carolina Natural Heritage Program (NCNHP) and a reconnaissance of the property. Two
federally-listed animal species occur within Sampson County. These two species are the
American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis) and the red-cockaded woodpecker (Picoides
borealis). No habitat suitable for use by either of these two species was observed on the site
or adjacent to the site.
Only one federally-listed plant species is known to occur within Sampson County. This
species is southern spicebush (Lindera melissifolia). This small shrub occurs in bays, sandy
sinks and pond margins. The NCNHP has one recorded occurrence of the southern
spicebush, approximately one-half mile northeast of the site. This spicebush is located in
a small Carolina bay community north east of the site. No habitat suitable for the southern
spicebush was observed on the landfill property.
ITEM 16:
An archaeological survey was conducted by Garrow & Associates, Raleigh, North Carolina.
Designated Historic Site 31SP296 is present on the property.
