Dear Mr. Jacobus:
This letter is in response to the Pre-Construction Notification (PCN) you submitted to
the Wilmington District, Wilmington Regulatory Field Office on June 27, 2024, for a
Department of the Army Nationwide permit (NWP) verification. This project has been
assigned the file number SAW-2019-01890 and is known as Castle Creek Lane
Warehouses. This file number should be referenced in all correspondence concerning
this project.
A review of the information provided indicates that the proposed work would include
the discharge of fil into 0.095 of an acre of wetlands to facilitate the construction of 17
warehouse units.. The project area for this determination includes a 12.33 acre(s) area
which is illustrated on the enclosed site plans/maps. The project/review area is located
at the terminus of Castle Creel Lane of Castle Hayne Road, at Latitude 34.283970 and
Longitude -77.919900; in Castle Hayne, New Hanover County, North Carolina.
We have determined that the proposed work is authorized by Nationwide Permit 18
pursuant to authorities under Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 U.S.C § 1344).
The proposed work must be accomplished in strict accordance with the general permit
conditions, any regional conditions, the special conditions listed in this letter, the
application materials, and the enclosed plans entitled sheet 1 of 19 and sheet 13 of 19
dated 12/29/2023. If the extent of the project area and/or nature of the authorized
impacts to waters are modified, a revised PCN must be submitted to this office for
written approval before work is initiated. Any violation of permit conditions or deviation
from your submitted plans may subject the permittee to enforcement action.
This verification is valid until March 14, 2026, unless prior to this date the subject
NWP(s) is suspended, revoked, or is modified such that the activity no longer complies
with the terms and conditions of this NWP. If you commence or are under contract to
commence this activity before the date that the relevant NWP is modified or revoked,
you will have 12 months from the date of the modification or revocation of the NWP to
complete the activity under the present terms and conditions of this NWP.
Project Specific Special Conditions:
1. Suitable habitat for tricolored bat (Perimyotis subflavus) may be present at
the site. On September 14, 2022, the USFWS published a proposal in the
Federal Register to list the tricolored bat as endangered under the
Endangered Species Act (ESA). The permittee understands and agrees
that all work associated with the clearing and removal of trees and removal
or modification of culverts must be completed prior to the effective date of
the final listing in the Federal Register. Work associated with the
aforementioned activities not completed by that time must cease and the
permittee must contact the Corps’ (Brad Shaver at
brad.e.shaver@usace.army.mil) to determine if additional coordination with
the United States Fish and Wildlife Service is required under Section 7 of
the Endangered Species Act prior to continuing work.
This NWP verification does not preclude the necessity to obtain any other Federal,
State, or local permits, licenses, and/or certifications, which may be required.
If you have any questions related to this verification or have issues accessing
documents referenced in this letter, please contact Brad Shaver, Project Manager of the
