Box 368 Elm City, NC 27822 Dear Ms. Jordan: DEM Project #960335, COE Project #199602130 Wilson County On 10 April 1996, you requested a 401 Water Quality Certification from the Division of Environmental Management for your project (construction of a forestry road) located near NC 42 East in Wilson County. We wrote to you on 23 April 1996 discussing concerns that we have regarding the design of the project and placing it on hold until those concerns are addressed. We recently received a copy of a Corps of Engineers letter dated 22 April 1996 stating that this project was exempt from a 404 Permit. Since no 404 Permit will be required, no 401 Water Quality Certification will be needed. Please call me at 919-733-1786 if you have any questions or would like to discuss this matter.
