REPLY TO
ATTENTION OF December 5, 1995
Regulatory Branch
Action ID No. 199600185, Nationwide Permit 14 and 18
Mr. Dallas Harris
Dallas Harris Real Estate & Construction
Post Office Box 531
Wrightsville, North Carolina 28480
Dear Mr. Harris:
Please reference your application, dated October 13, 1995, with
modifications dated November 8, 1995, for nationwide permit (NWP)
authorization to remove a total of 0.95 acre of wetlands from federal
jurisdiction. The stated purpose of this work is construction of a
residential development at the Planter's Walk subdivision, in Wilmington,
New Hanover County, North Carolina.
Based on my conversation this morning with your representative,
Mr. Charlie Hollis, it is my understanding that there is no alternative to the
submitted construction plan which would suit your project needs. Road
construction, called for in the plan, will prevent normal accumulation and
retention of water in the 0.87 acre, shallow, depressional wetland, eventually
removing it from jurisdiction. NWP 14 is not available for authorization of
this project since the permit's terms and conditions are not met. However,
removal of the wetland from jurisdiction does not preclude your use of
nationwide permits to accomplish the work. Mr. Hollis acknowledged our
recommendation that 0.87 acre of wetland impact be requested for authorization
pursuant to NWP 26, in order to accomplish your proposed project.
Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 330.6, published in
the Federal Register on November 22, 1991, lists nationwide permits for the
purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory Program. Authorization was
provided, pursuant to Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, for discharges of
dredged or fill material into headwaters and isolated waters by Nationwide
Permit No. 26.
Regarding your request for authorization of a separate 0.08 acre of fill
at the head of a cul de sac. Title 33, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR),
Part 330.6, published in the Federal Register on November 22, 1991, lists
nationwide permits for the purposes of the Corps of Engineers' Regulatory
Program. Authorization, pursuant to Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act
and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, was provided for discharges of dredged
or fill material into all waters of the United States provided:
a. The discharge does not exceed 25 cubic yards in open water areas;
b. The discharge will not cause the loss of more than 1/10 acre of a
special aquatic site, including wetlands. For the purposes of this nationwide
permit, the acreage limitation includes the filled area plus special aquatic
sites that are adversely affected by flooding and special aquatic sites
drained so that they would no longer be a water of the United States because
of the project;

Your work is authorized by these nationwide permits provided it is
accomplished in strict accordance with the enclosed conditions, according to
your submitted plans, and provided that you receive a Section 401 water
quality certification from the North Carolina Division of Environmental
Management (NCDEM) and a consistency determination from the North Carolina
Division of Coastal Management (NCDCM). You should contact Mr. John Dorney,
telephone (919) 733-1786, regarding water quality certification, and Mr. Steve
Benton, telephone (919) 733-2293, regarding consistency determination. These
nationwide permits do not relieve you of the responsibility to obtain other
required State or local approvals.
This verification will be valid until these nationwide permits are
modified, reissued, or revoked. All the nationwide permits are scheduled to
be modified, reissued, or revoked prior to 21 January 1997. It is incumbent
upon you to remain informed of changes to the nationwide permits. We will
issue a public notice announcing the changes when they occur. Furthermore, if
you commence or are under contract to commence this activity before the date
the nationwide permits are modified or revoked, you will have twelve months
from the date of the modification or revocation to complete the activity under
the present terms and conditions of these nationwide permits.
If you have any questions regarding this correspondence, please contact
me by writing to the above address, or by telephoning (910) 251-4466.

Matt Flint
