Dear Mr. Helms:
You have our approval to place fill material in 0.065 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose
of constructing a park access at Merchants Mill Pond State Park, as you described in your application
dated 19 September 1995. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered
by General Water Quality Certification Number 2671. This certification allows you to use Nationwide
Permit Number 26 when it is issued by the Corps of Engineers.
This approval is only valid for the purpose and design that you described in your application. If
you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new application.
For this approval to be valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification. In
addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go ahead with your
project.
If you do not accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adjudicatory
hearing. You must act within 60 days of the date that you receive this letter. To ask for a hearing,
send a written petition which conforms to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes to the
Office of Administrative Hearings, P.O. Box 27447, Raleigh, N.C. 27611-7447. This certification and
its conditions are final and binding unless you ask for a hearing.
This letter completes the review of the Division of Environmental Management under Section 401
of the Clean Water Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Domey at 919-733-1786.
Sincerely, P?? ??9/
A. Pre on Howard, Jr. P.E.
