APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification
Mr. George Postell
Route 1, Box 215
Andrews, NC 28901
Dear Mr. Postell:
You have our approval to place fill material in 0.15 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of
stabilizing the streambank on Valley River near SR 1409, as you described in your application dated
26 March 1996. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General
Water Quality Certification Numbers 2733 and 2665. These certifications allow you to use
Nationwide Permit Numbers 18 or 13 when they are 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 Dorney at 919-733-
1786.
Sincerely,
P ston Howard, Jr. P.E.
