Mr. Bill Christiansen

Lee Plant
1677 Old Smithfield Road
Smithfield, NC 27530
Dear Mr. Christiansen:
You have our approval to dredge 50-55 cubic yards of material for the purpose of renovating the intake
canal at Lee Plant, as you described in your application dated 30 August 1996. After reviewing your
application, we have decided that this fill is covered by General Water Quality Certification Number 2676.
This certification allows you to use General Permit Number 277 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. 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 Dorney at 919-733-1786.
Sincerely, ` ? 1 ^

Subject: Maintenance Dredging at Carolina Power & Light Company's Lee Plant
Dear Mr. Dorney:
The mouth of the short intake canal (the "pump station canal" in the enclosed sketch) at Carolina Power &
Light Company's Lee Plant, located on the Neuse River near Goldsboro, N.C., is in need of minor dredging.
CP&L proposes to remove this material as provided for under Corps of Engineers General Permit No.
198200277, and is requesting that your office issue the required water quality certification. The completed
pre-construction notification application is also enclosed.
CP&L intends to dredge approximately 50-55 cubic yards of material which has been deposited at
the mouth of the pump station canal, which was originally constructed through high ground. The
deposited material will be removed with a drag line or other suitable equipment, and disposed of on
a high ground site within the Lee Plant boundary. No wetlands will be impacted by the dredging
operation, and no deposited material will be allowed to reenter water or wetlands.
We would appreciate your approval of this request at your earliest convenience. If you have any questions,
please contact Mr. Buzz Bryson of my staff at [phone].
Very tadl y Ors
