Dear Mr. Koenig:
Please find the enclosed materials on our wetlands regulatory program. Unfortunately the laws
and rules pertaining to wetlands and streams are presently fairly complicated. As I indicated over the
phone, the prospective lot owners could place a fence or elevated walkway through the wetland area, but
the Division would not allow any filling or excavation in the wetland. Also, because it is part of the
restoration effort that you and the Division have undertaken to correct a wetlands violation, we would
only allow very limited cutting of vegetation until the area is stabilized.
I have also enclosed a copy of the 401 Water Quality Certification that was issued for the
development and it does require that deed restrictions or conservation notices be placed on all lots with
remaining wetlands. Should have any further questions please fill free to contact myself or Ken Averitte
at the Fayetteville Regional Office (910-486-1541). I would also strongly encourage you or the lot
owner to contact us prior to undertaking any significant activity in the wetland area.
Sincerely,
V,- -, t -

APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
Mr. John Koenig
Northridge Developers, LLC
6200 Ramsey Street
Fayetteville, NC 28311
Dear Mr. Koenig:
You have our approval to place fill material in 0.14 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of
developing a subdivision at Northridge Plantation, Phase Two, as you described in your application dated 25
November 1996. After reviewing your application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water
Quality Certification Numbers 2732. These certifications allow you to use Nationwide Permit Numbers 12
and 14 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 except as
modified below. If you change your project, you must notify us and you may be required to send us a new
application. If total wetland fills for this project (now or in the future) exceed one acre, compensatory
mitigation may be required as described in 15A NCAC 2H.0506 (h) (6) and (7). For this approval to be
valid, you must follow the conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed
below. Deed restrictions or conservation easements shall be added to all lots with remaining wetlands to
prevent future wetland fill. In addition, you should get any other federal, state or local permits before you go
ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Sediment and Erosion Control, Coastal Stormwater,
Non- Disc har-c and Water Supply Watershed regulations. This approval will expire when the accompanying
404 or CAi ,IA permit expires unless otherwise specified in the General Certification.
If you do nut accept any of the conditions of this certification, you may ask for an adiudicatory hearing.
You must act within 60 days 01'01C date that you receive this letter. To ask fora 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 Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water
Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorney at 919-733-1786.

Wetland Permits NWP 14 and NWP 12
Dear Mr. Colwell:
Enclosed are seven (7) copies of the NWP 14 permit application for
the proposed road crossings in Richmond Park, Phase Two at
Northridge Plantation Subdivision for your review and comment. I
am concurrently forwarding this information to all required
agencies as stated in the permit application, and will submit their
comments to you when received. Also, enclosed is a permit
application for our NWP 12 impacts.
I am submitting permit request only for the next 60 acres (99 lots)
contained within Richmond Park, Phase Two and not the entire
remaining 240 acres that Mr. Koenig owns.
I feel there is still too much uncertainty at the preliminary
stage to determine actual impacts, and think it is better to
determine the actual scope of the impacts once engineering design
is complete, as we have done here.
Please review this information and let me know if you have any
questions, concerns, or desire further information.
Sincerely,
