Dear Mr. Dickey:
Subject: Proposed fill in Wetlands or Waters
Road crossing
Onslow County
DEM Project #94250
XFWAA
AA
1:3 FE F=1
We have reviewed your request for 401 Water Quality Certification to
place fill material in 0.21 acres of wetlands or waters which are tributary to
Queen's Creek for road crossings located at SR 1551 in Onslow County as
described in your submittal dated 17 March 1994. Based on this review, we
have determined that the proposed fill is covered by General Water Quality
Certification No. 2732. A copy of the General Certification is attached.
This Certification is necessary for coverage under Corps of Engineers'
Nationwide Permit No. 14. This action completes DEM's review under Section
401 of the Clean Water Act. An additional condition is that deed restrictions
shall be placed on all lots with wetlands (see attached example) to prevent
wetland fill.
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 919-733-1786.
Sincerely,
i

RE: COE ID# 199401928, Nationwide Permit Application for an
activity located adjacent to Hall and Queen Creeks,
Onslow County.
Dear Mr. Dickey:
The North Carolina Division of Coastal Management has reviewed the
above referenced application for a Nationwide Permit dated March 9,
1994 pursuant to Section 307 of the Coastal Zone Management Act of
1972 as amended. We have also received a letter from your wetlands
consultant, Mr. Wayne Ragland, and a telephone call from your
engineer, Mr. John McLean. Both of these gentlemen have indicated
that the timing and design of a proposed pier has not been decided.
Furthermore, they indicated that the construction, design, and
permit authorizations may be a responsibility left to the future
home owners association.
Based upon our review of the above information and your
application, we have determined that the proposed activity is
consistent with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program
provided the following conditions are met:
1. The activity described in the above referenced
application qualifies to receive one of the Nationwide
Permits described in 33 CFR Part 330 with the exception
of Numbers 17, 21, 24, and 34 which were found inconsis-
tent with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program.
2. A 401 Water Quality Certification is received, where
required, from the North Carolina Division of
Environmental Management.
This letter does not relieve you of the responsibility to insure
that all other State authorization and/or permit requirements are

RE: COE ID #199401928, Nationwide Permit Application for an

County.
Dear Mr. Dickey:
The North Carolina Division of Coastal Management has reviewed the
above referenced application for a Nationwide Permit dated March 9,
1994. Based upon our review, we have determined that a portion of
the proposed development activities (i.e. the proposed ten slip
pier) is located within an Area of Environmental Concern (AEC).
Therefore, before you are eligible to receive a Nationwide Permit
from the Army Corps of Engineers, you must receive a CAMA Permit
from the North Carolina Division of Coastal Management for the
proposed activities. The State position on consistency of the
proposal with the North Carolina Coastal Management Program is
provided by the Division's LAMA Permit decision.
Please contact Mr. Jim Mercer at the Division of Coastal
Management, P. 0. Box 769, Morehead City, NC 28557, Telephone (919)
726-7021, for information and assistance with applying for the
required permit. Thank you for your consideration.
