Dear Mr. Drye:
Subject: Proposed fill in Wetlands or Waters
Sewer line hookup
Cabarrus County
DEM Project # 931062
Upon review of your request for 401 Water Quality Certification
to place fill material in 0.25 acres of wetlands or waters which are
tributary to Buffalo Creek for sewer line hookup, David Drye Co.
apartment site located at Hwy. 73 and U.S. 29 in Cabarrus County as
described in your submittal dated 24 December 1993, we have determined
that the proposed fill can be covered by General Water Quality
Certification No. 2671. A copy of the General Certification is
attached. This Certification may be used in qualifying for coverage
under Corps of Engineers' Nationwide Permit No. 26.
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.

RE: Nationwide Permit Section 401 Certification
David Drye Co. Apartment Site
Concord, NC
Dear Mr. Dorney:
Please find enclosed the following for your review and comments:

1. Letters and a memo from Army Corps of Engineers concerning a Nationwide Permit
No. 26 for the proposed apartment site.
2. Original site plan.
3. Revised and final site plan.
4. Permit application form.
As you can see, our client has been working with the Corps since November of 1987 to try
and place an apartment complex on this site. The original site plan impacted 0.65 acres of
the total 1.65± acres of wetlands on the Caldwell property. Because of the wetlands and
other soils considerations, by adding the Galimore property to the Caldwell property, our
client has revised the site plan to eliminate any impacts to the wetlands on both pieces of
property.
It is my understanding that under a Nationwide Permit No. 26, for projects with less than
1/4 acre fill of wetlands, our site does not require a Section 401 Water Quality Certification.
Thank you for your assistance in helping us to obtain the required state approvals.

Dear Mr. Drys:
On November 17, 1987, you and Mr. Dale Fink, Concord
Engineering & Survey, Inc., met with Mr. Hugh Heine of my staff
regarding your plans to develop property off an unnamed creek in
North Concord, Cabarrus County, North Carolina.
You plan to develop a 7.3-acre tract (the former L. M.
Caldwell property), on a dirt road off North Carolina Highway 73.
A significant-portion of this tract is wetlands which are adjacent
to the creek. The wetlands have saturated soils and are vegetated
with soft stem rushes, willow, cattails and red maple.
Even though these wetlands are located within the streams'
headwaters (drainage area is about 188 acres), the required
Federal permits must be obtained before any fill material is
placed in any waters or wetlands. During this meeting, the
wetland contour was flagged and delineated on each side of the
creek. You should have your engineering firm to determine the
amount of wetlands located on this tract. Once this has been
determined, please notify this office and we can discuss the pre-
discharge notification for nationwide permit No. 26.
As indicated, if dredged or fill material is placed in waters
or wetlands without first obtaining the required Department of the
Army permits, this activity will constitute a violation of Federal
law.
Should you have any questions or comments, please contact
Mr. Heine at telephone [phone].
Sincerely,
Charles W. Hollis
Chief, Regulatory Branch

Dear Mr. Shropshire:
Reference your September 20, 1989, meeting with Mr. David Baker of our
Asheville Regulatory office and Mr. Harry Luzius of Concord Engineering
regardi>1g a 14.8-acre parcel proposed for residential development off
Highway 73 in Concord, Cabarrus County, North Carolina. The parcel is
traversed by an unnamed headwater tributary stream with a drainage area of
188 acres.
The total area of streambed and adjacent wetlands was determined to be
less than an acre in size.
For the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program, Title 33,
Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330, published in the Federal Register
on November 13, 1986, lists nationwide permits. Authorization was provided
for discharges of dredged or fill material into non-tidal rivers, streams, and
their lakes and impoundments, including adjacent wetlands, that are located
above the headwaters and other non-tidal waters of the United States,
including adjacent wetlands, that are not a part of a surface tributary system
to interstate waters or navigable waters of the United States. This general
authorization is valid only for work that causes the loss or substantial
adverse modification of less than an acre of wetlands.
Fill in waters or wetlands in conjunction with the development is
authorized by nationwide permit provided it is accomplished in strict
accordance with the enc sed r_ n1,d -tYions. Please be aware that this
authorization does not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain any
required State or local approval
If you have questions, please contact David Baker at our Asheville
Regulatory Office, telephone [phone].
