with the provisions of 15A NCAC 2H .1000 (hereafter referred to as the "stormwater rules')
and the approved stormwater management plans and specifications, and other supporting
data as attached and on file with and approved by the Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land
Resources and considered a part of this permit.
The Permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until rescinded and shall be subject
to the following specific conditions and limitations:
I. DESIGN STANDARDS
Each of the 9 lots is limited to a maximum of 23,522 square feet of built -upon area,

regulations may reduce the allowable built -upon area for those lots within the AEC.
2. The overall tract built -upon area percentage for the project must be maintained at
24% per the requirements of Section .1005 of the stormwater rules.
3. Approved plans and specifications for projects covered by this permit are
incorporated by reference and are enforceable parts of the permit.
4. The built -upon areas associated with this project shall be located at least 50 feet
landward of all perennial and intermittent surface waters.
The only runoff conveyance systems allowed will be vegetated conveyances such as
swales with minimum side slopes of 3:1 (H:V) as defined in the stormwater rules and
approved by the Division.
6. All roof drains must terminate at least 50 foot from the mean high water mark.

II. SCHEDULE OF COMPLIANCE
1. Swales and other vegetated conveyances shall be constructed in their entirety,
vegetated, and be operational for their intended use prior to the construction of any
built -upon surface.
2. During construction, erosion shall be kept to a minimum and any eroded areas of the
swales or other vegetated conveyances will be repaired immediately.
3. The permittee shall at all times provide the operation and maintenance necessary to
operate the permitted stormwater management systems at optimum efficiency to
include:
a. Inspections
b. Sediment removal.
C. Mowing, and re -vegetating of the side slopes.
d. Immediate repair of eroded areas.
e. Maintenance of side slopes in accordance with approved plans and
specifications.
f. Maintenance of level spreaders and infiltration areas in accordance with
approved plans and O&M documents.
4. The permittee shall submit to the Director and shall have received approval for
revised plans, specifications, and calculations prior to construction, for any
modification to the approved plans, including, but not limited to, those listed below:
a. Any revision to any of the items shown on the approved plans, including the
stormwater management system, design concept, built -upon area, details, etc.
b. Project name change.
C. Transfer of ownership.
d. Redesign or addition to the approved amount of built -upon area or to the
drainage area.
e. Further subdivision, acquisition, or selling of the project area.
f. Filling in, altering or piping any vegetative conveyance shown on the approved
plan.
5. The permittee shall submit all information requested by the Director or his
representative within the time frame specified in the written information request.
6. No piping shall be allowed except that minimum amount necessary to direct runoff
beneath an impervious surface such as a road and that minimum amount needed
under driveways to provide access to lots.
7. The permittee is responsible for verifying that the proposed built -upon area does not
exceed the allowable built -upon area. Once the lot transfer is complete, the built -
upon area may not be revised without approval from the Division of Energy, Mineral,
and Land Resources, and responsibility for meeting the built -upon area limit is
transferred to the individual property owner, provided that the permittee complies with
the requirements of Section 11.8 and 11.9 of this permit.
8. If the permittee sets up an Architectural Review Committee or Board (ARC or ARB)
to review plans for compliance with the restrictions, the plans reviewed must include
all proposed built -upon area (BUA). Any approvals given by the ARC or ARB do not
relieve the lot owner of the responsibility to maintain compliance with the permitted
BUA limit.

9. The Director may notify the permittee when the permitted site does not meet one or
more of the minimum requirements of the permit. Within the time frame specified in
the notice, the permittee shall submit a written time schedule to the Director for
modifying the site to meet minimum requirements. The permittee shall provide
copies of revised plans and certification in writing to the Director that the changes
have been made.
Ill. GENERAL CONDITIONS
This permit is not transferable to any person or entity except after notice to and
approval by the Director. The Director may require modification or revocation and re -
issuance of the permit to change the name and incorporate such other requirements
as may be necessary. In the event of a name or ownership change, a completed
Name/Ownership Change form, signed by both parties, must be submitted to the
Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources accompanied by the supporting
documentation as listed on page 2 of the form. The approval of this request will be
considered on its merits, and may or may not be approved.
2. The permittee is responsible for compliance with all permit conditions until the
Director approves a transfer of ownership. Neither the sale of the project nor the
transfer of common areas to a third party, such as a homeowner's association,
constitutes an approved transfer of the stormwater permit.
3. Failure to abide by the conditions and limitations contained in this permit may subject
the Permittee to an enforcement action by the Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land
Resources, in accordance with North Carolina General Statutes 143-215.6A to 143-
215.6C.
4. The issuance of this permit does not prohibit the Director from reopening and
modifying the permit, revoking and reissuing the permit, or terminating the permit as
allowed by the laws, rules, and regulations contained in Session Law 2008-211, Title
15A of the North Carolina Administrative Code, Subchapter 21-1.1000; and North
Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 et. al.
5. In the event that the facilities fail to perform satisfactorily, including the creation of
nuisance conditions, the Permittee shall take immediate corrective action, including
those as may be required by the Division, such as the construction of additional or
replacement stormwater management systems.
6. The permittee grants permission to DENR Staff to enter the property during normal
business hours, for the purpose of inspecting all components of the stormwater
management facility.
7. The permit issued shall continue in force and effect until revoked or terminated. The
permit may be modified, revoked and reissued or terminated for cause. The filing of a
request for a permit modification, revocation and re -issuance, or termination does not
stay any permit condition.
8. Unless specified elsewhere, permanent seeding requirements for the swales must
follow the guidelines established in the North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control
Planning and Design Manual.
9. Approved plans and specifications for this project are incorporated by reference and
are enforceable parts of the permit.

10. The issuance of this permit does not preclude the Permittee from complying with any
and all statutes, rules, regulations, or ordinances, which may be imposed by other
government agencies (local, state and federal), which have jurisdiction.
11. The permittee shall notify the Division in writing of any name, ownership or mailing
address changes at least 30 days prior to making such changes.
