RE: 401 Certification for PDN for 2.4 Acres of Wetlands for Nathan Rivenbark, McLean
Tract, Pender County, NC
Dear Mr. Dorney,
I have enclosed seven (7) copies of a 401/PDN request to permit the placement of fill
and/or disturbance of approximately 2.4 acres of wetlands. This fill will be used for access
to the tract for hunting purposes.
The tract is located on the east side of NCSR 1332, 114 mile south of its intersection with
NCSR 1209, in Pender County, northwest of Burgaw. The tract contains approximately
183 acres which is all classified as 404 Wetlands. The entire tract is three-year old,
cutover land with FACW or OBL vegetation re-emerging.
The owners would like to fence the tract for fox-hunting but would need access and off-
road parking for vehicles. Their plan is to put the parking/turn-around area far enough into
the tract to give good access to interior portions of the tract.
The Wetlands present are considered pocosins and should rate fairly low scores on the
Wetland rating system. The owners feel that since the entire tract is wet and of "low" value
and trying to assemble vehicles, dogs and human along the state road would be a safety
hazard this permit should be granted.
I have spoken with the Corps about examining this portion of the tract and not flagging the
entire tract due to the wet nature of the tract. They have give tentative agreement to not
requiring a flagged, surveyed delineation before permitting this area.
