Dear Mr. Levi:

You have our approval, in accordance with the attached conditions and those listed below, to place fill
within or otherwise impact approximately 0.005 acres of waters on Lake James for the purpose of
installing rip rap to stabilize approximately 110 feet of shoreline, as described within your application
dated March 29, 2004. After reviewing your application, we have decided that the impacts are covered
by the N.C. Division of Water Quality (DWQ) General Water Quality Certification Number(s) 3373
(GC3373). The Certification(s) allows you to use Regional General Permit No. 198200030 when issued
by the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). This letter shall also act as your approved Authorization
Certificate for impacts to the protected riparian buffers per 15A NCAC 2B .0243. In addition, you
should obtain or otherwise comply with any other required federal, state or local permits before you go
ahead with your project including (but not limited to) Erosion and Sediment Control and Duke Power
regulations and permits. Also, this approval will expire when the accompanying 404 permit expires
unless otherwise specified in the General Certification.

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. If the
property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this Certification and approval letter and is
thereby responsible for complying with all conditions. For this approval to be valid, you must follow the
conditions listed in the attached certification and any additional conditions listed below.

Conditions:

1. Diffuse Flow

An additional condition is that all stormwater shall be directed as diffuse flow at non-erosive
velocities through the protected stream buffers and will not re-concentrate before discharging
into the stream as identified within 15A NCAC 2B .0243(5).
