Dear Mr. Cardwell:
Upon review of your request for Water Quality
Certification to place fill material in a wetland area
adjacent to an unnamed freshwater tributary to Howe Creek,
we have determined that the proposed fill can be covered by
General Water Quality Certification No. 2176 issued November
4, 1987. A copy of the General Certification is attached.
This Certification may be used in qualifying for coverage
under Corps of Engineers' Nationwide Permit No. 2.6.
If you have any questions, please contact Bill Mills at
919/733-5083.

Dear Mr. Cardwell:
RECEIVEp
1988
r - On June 27, 1988, you met with Mr. Hugh Heine of my staff
regarding New Hanove County's plans to construct phase 2 of the
interceptor system in New Hanover County, North Carolina.
During this onsite meeting, the following proposed five lift
station sites were visited.
a. Bayshore No. 1 was located about 20 feet from Pages Creek
on high ground. No waters or wetlands would be filled as a result
of this work.
b. Bayshore No. 2 was located from 20 to 30 feet from Pages
Creek. All fill material would be placed and retained on high
ground; no waters or wetlands would be impacted.
c. Bayshore No. 3 was located on high ground, but the access
roadway would fill a small adjacent wetland area. Federal permits
would be required for the proposed roadway.
d. El Ogden pump station is located very close to a wetland
area. If this site could be shifted to high ground, Federal
permits would not be required.
e. Westwood Drive East pump station would be sited within the
headwaters of a small creek. Since only a 20-foot by 20-foot-wide
area would be impacted, this activity may be eligible for a
nationwide permit No. 26.
The following information is only for the Westwood Drive East
pump station.
-2-

- 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.
Your work is authorized by nationwide permit provided it is
accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions.
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 Mr. Heine, Regulatory
Branch, telephone [phone].
Sincerely,
Charles W. Hollis
