Gary Lucks and Bud Brown of United Turf, and your subsequent request of March 15, 1993, to undertake excavation and filling activities within 31,200 square feet (0.71 AC) of wetlands located above the headwaters onsite your property located off the south side of S.R. 1111 (Spot Road), approximately 1,500 linear feet east of the intersection of S.R. 1111 and U.S. Highway 158, adjacent to an unnamed tributary to the Currituck Sound, Powells Point, Currituck County, North Carolina. The purpose of the proposed project is to relocate an existing ditch on the property and to block and abandon the old ditch. 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 into headwaters and isolated waters provided: a. The discharge does not cause the loss of more than 10 acres of waters of the United States; b. The permittee notifies the District Engineer if the discharge would cause the loss of waters of the United States greater than one acre in accordance with the "Notification" general condition. 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. 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. -2- .ti v 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 discussed with Mr. Bland onsite, 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 (919) 733-1786, and Mr. Steve Benton, North Carolina Division of Coastal Management, telephone (919) 733-2293.

Howes, Secretary Mr. Bernie Hall Route 1, Box 170 Powell's Point, NC 27966 RE: DEM ID# 93217, Nationwide Permit Application for an activity located in Currituck County. Dear Mr Hall: The North Carolina Division of Coastal Management has reviewed the above referenced application for a Nationwide Permit dated March 12, 1993 pursuant to Section 307 of the Coastal Zone Manage- ment Act of 1972 as amended. Based upon our review, we have determined that so long as the proposed activity is permitted by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers it will be consistent with the Currituck County land use plan and thus 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. This letter does not relieve you of the responsibility to insure that all other State authorization and/or permit requirements are met prior to implementation of the project. Please feel free to contact me at (919) 264-3901 if you have any questions or need further assistance. /--Sincerely, E David R. Griffin District Manager DRG/dc cc: Preston P.
