Dear Mr. Furlough:
Subject: Proposed fill in Wetlands or Waters
Washington County water line
Washington County
DEM Project # 93968
Upon review of your request for 401 Water Quality Certification
to place fill material in 0.14 acres of wetlands or waters which are
tributary to Albemarle Sound for water line construction located at
Plymouth, Roper and Creswell in Washington County as described in your
submittal dated 10 November 1993, we have determined that the proposed
fill can be covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 2664.
A copy of the General Certification is attached. This Certification
may be used in qualifying for coverage under Corps of Engineers'
Nationwide Permit No. 12.
If this Certification is unacceptable to you, you have the right
to an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30)
days following receipt of this Certification. This request must be in
the form of a written petition conforming to Chapter 150B of the North
Carolina General Statutes and filed with the Office of Administrative
Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. Unless such
demands are made, this Certification shall be final and binding.

If you have any questions, please contact John Dorney at 919-733-

be known as Washington County Waterlines. The project is linear
and covers various locations in Washington County along parts of
US 64, NC 208, and several state roads as shown on the plans and
vicinity map submitted previously.
The Corps approved detailed wetland delineation is shown on the
attached map. These delineations have been approved.by Mr.
Raleigh Bland of the U.S'. Army Corps of Engineers. Wetlands under'
CAMA jurisdiction have already been identified by the Division of
Coastal Management, and are not included as part of this permit
application. A separate application for these crossings is being
made to CAMA.
Fill in the wetlands will be required to build a waterline for
areas in the county without water service (see attached map).
Available uplands have been utilized as much as possible so that
wetland fills have been minimized by utilizing upland road
shoulders as much as possible. Since it is not permissible to
attach utility lines to bridges or culverts in this case, wetlands
must be impacted for the waterline installation. Wetlands will be
returned to their original contours after construction is
complete. Wetlands under CAMA jurisdiction will be permitted
separately with the Division of Coastal Management.
It will be necessary to impact .14 acres (see map) of
jurisdictional wetlands for placement of the proposed facilities.
This figure assumes a 20' wide easement will be used for the
entire waterline project. See attached table for a list of
wetlands included in this permit, and linear feet of wetland to be
crossed. Please note that to the best of our knowledge, none of
the watersheds containing wetlands to be impacted appears to be
classified any higher than C or SC according to the DEM Watershad
Classification system. It was not possible, however, to confiria
Soil/Site Evaluation ¦ Mapping and Physical Analysis ¦ Wetlands Mapping and Mitigation ¦ Environmental Audits

the rating of all of the wetlands, as many of them were unnamed
and could not be identified precisely utilizing the most recent
DEM Watershed Classification "booklets".
To expedite the permitting process and to ease the process for
on everyone involved, the following individuals/agencies have been
provided with a complete copy of this entire application package:
David Franklin (Wilmington Corps), and Deborah Sawyer (DEM
Washington Regional office).
Please call if you have questions or require further information.
If you intend to perform a site visit please call and we will
arrange for someone to accompany you.
