Action ID. 199303424 and Nationwide Permit No. 18 (Minor Discharges)
Mr. Olin Finch

Duck, North Carolina 27949
Dear Mr. Finch:
Reference your application received July 22, 1993, for Department of the
Army authorization to place fill material in 0.09 acre of 404 wetlands on your
property identified as Lot No. 217, Ocean Hill, located off North Beach Access
Road, adjacent the Currituck Sound, Corolla, Currituck County, North Carolina.
The proposed fill will facilitate residential development of the property.
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, pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act and
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was provided for discharges of dredged or
fill material into all waters of the United States provided:
a. The discharge does not exceed 25 cubic yards;
b. The discharge will not cause the loss of more than 1/10 acre of a
special aquatic site, including wetlands. For the purposes of this NWP, the
acreage limitation includes the filled area plus special aquatic sites that
are adversely affected by flooding and special aquatic sites that are drained
so that they would no longer be a water of the United States as a result of
the project;
c. If the discharge exceeds 10 cubic yards or the discharge is in a
special aquatic site, including wetlands, the permittee notifies the District
Engineer in accordance with the "Notification" general condition. For
discharges in special aquatic sites, including wetlands, the notification must
also include a delineation of affected special aquatic sites, including
wetlands' and;
d. The discharge, including all attendant features, both temporary and
permanent, is part of a single and complete project and is not placed for the
purpose of stream diversion.
-2-
Your work is authorized by this NWP provided it is accomplished in strict
accordance with the enclosed conditions. This NWP 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 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 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],
and Mr. Steve Benton, North Carolina Division of Coastal Management, telephone
[phone].
Questions or comments may be addressed to Mr. Raleigh Bland, Washington
Regulatory Field Office, Regulatory Branch, telephone [phone].
Sincerely,
G. Wayne Wright

Dear Mr. Finch:
The North Carolina Division of Coastal Management has reviewed the above referenced application
for a Nationwide Permit dated July 17, 1993 pursuant to Section 307 of the Coastal Zone Manage-
ment Act of 1972 as amended. Based upon our review, we have determined that the proposed
activity is consistent with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program provided the following
conditions are met:
1. The activity described in the above referenced application qualifies to receive one of
the Nationwide Permits described in 33 CFR Part 330 with the exception of Numbers
17, 21, 24, and 34 which were found inconsistent with the North Carolina Coastal
Management Program.
2.
A 401 Water Quality Certification is received, where required, from the North
Carolina Division of Environmental Management.
3
The US Army Corps of Engineers will permit the proposed fill of an inland wetland as
characterized in the Currituck County land use plan.
