C/O Mr. John Dorney
Dear Mr. Dorney:

The purpose of this correspondence is for Mitchell &LAssociates, Inc.,
representing Brown's of the Carolinas, to submit a Department of the Army
Individual Permit Application to place fill material within Section 404
wetlands located above the headwaters of Reedy Branch. The proposed project
site is located off Hwy 211 and S.R. 1179, near the town of Bladenboro,
Bladen County, North Carolina.
The purpose of the proposed fill in wetlands is to facilitate the
construction of a grain warehouse railway facility. The majority of the facility
will be located in uplands, however, there are some isolated wetland pockets
which must be impacted in order for the proposed facility to be developed.
The applicant has considered other alternatives to placement of fill
material within wetlands to accomplish their project goal, however, the
proposed plan is the only practicable alternative available. Considering the
proximity of the existing Seaboard Coastline Railway, and the availability of
utilizing the existing rail for service, other alternatives considered were not
practicable, considerably more expensive to the applicant, and involved even
greater wetland impacts. The project has been designed to avoid and minimize
potential adverse impacts to other wetland areas, and additional measures will
be undertaken to maintain the work in strict conformance with all permit
conditions pursuant to Nationwide Permit No. 26.
?V

Please contact me at your convenience should you have any questions or
comments regarding this request.
erely,
Mr. Gary A. Mitchell
