Dear Mr. White:
Subject: Proposed fill in Wetlands or Waters
Water main installation, Airport Rhodhiss water project
Burke County
DEM Project #94116
We have reviewed your request for 401 Water Quality Certification
to place fill material in 0.1 acres of wetlands or waters which are
tributary to Drowning Creek for water main installation located at SR
1655 in Burke County as described in your submittal dated 2 February
1994. Based on this review, we have determined that the proposed fill
is covered by General Water Quality Certification No. 2664. A copy of
the General Certification is attached. This Certification is
necessary for coverage under Corps of Engineers' Nationwide Permit No.
12. This action completes DEM's review under Section 401 of the Clean
Water Act.
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.
1786.
If you have any questions, please contact John Dorney at 919-733-
Sincerely,
Preston Howard Jr. P.E.

Please find attached for your review and approval seven (7) copies of the completed Application for
the Installation of a water main across Drowning Creek and a small nearby unnamed creek in East Burke
County. The Drowning Creek crossing was previously submitted by the Town of Long View In July 1993.
Burke County has secured funding for this project through the State's Community Development Block
Grant (CDBG) program. Due to funding requirements, the County is under a critical schedule to begin this
project as soon as possible. For this reason, we respectfully request that you review this Application as
quickly as your schedule allows. Please contact us If you have any questions.
Sincerely,
