APPROVAL of 401 Water Quality Certification and ADDITIONAL CONDITIONS
Mr. George H. Ellis
10 Country Club Blvd
Whispering Pines, NC 28327
Dear Mr. Ellis:
You have our approval to fill and excavate 1.0 acres of wetlands or waters for the purpose of subdivision
roads at the Whispering Pines Subdivision, as you described in your application dated 5 June 1996. 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. Deed restrictions
shall be placed in all lots with remaining jurisdictional wetlands to prevent future fill. 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 Water Quality under Section 401 of the Clean Water
Act. If you have any questions, please telephone John Dorsey at 919-733-1786.
Sincerely,
cA. Prest n Howard, Jr. P.E.
