Dear Mr. Martin:
Reference our letters of June 16 and September 17, 1993 (Action
ID. 199302366), confirming nationwide permit authorization for discharges of
fill material impacting wetlands adjacent and above the headwaters of an
unnamed tributary to Crabtree Creek, associated with development of Preston
Village, Phase I, residential subdivision, on the west side of Davis Drive
(S.R. 1613), in Morrisville, Wake County, North Carolina. Reference also your
application of September 8, 1993, submitted on behalf of Preston Development
Company, for additional Department of the Army authorization to discharge fill
material within waters of the United States, impacting an additional 0.14 acre
of wetlands (0.06 for road crossings, and 0.08 for lot fills, for a total of
0.37 acre under Nationwide Permit No. 26), for development of Preston Village,
Phase II.
For the purposes of the U.S. 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.
-2-
Authorization, pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act of
1899 and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was also 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 1/3 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.
Your work is authorized by these NWPs provided it is accomplished in
strict accordance with the enclosed conditions and provided you receive a
Section 401 water quality certification from the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management. These NWPs do not relieve you of the responsibility
to obtain other required State or local approvals. You should contact
Mr. John Dorney at telephone (919) 733=1786 regarding water quality
certification
This verification, authorizing 0.14 acre additional wetlands impacts,
will be valid for two 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
-3-
expiration, modification or revocation, unless discretionary authority has
been exercised on a case-by-case base to modify, suspend or revoke the
authorization.
Please note that this authorization is valid for the work described above
only, and impacts of subsequent projects on this property would have to be
considered cumulatively with these impacts, regardless of future subdivision
or ownership of the property. Questions or comments may be addressed to
Mr. Eric Alsmeyer, Raleigh Field Office regulatory staff, at telephone (919)
876-8441, extension 23.
