Good Morning,
On July 7, 2021, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received information regarding the proposed
subject project. A review of that information has determined that the project is exempt from Stormwater Management
Permit requirements. Staff review of the plans and supporting documentation has determined that the project proposes
activities that are exempted from State Stormwater permitting requirements as set forth in the stormwater rules under
Title 15A NCAC 02H .1001(5). This determination does not supersede any other agency permit that may be required.
Please keep in mind that this determination applies only to the current activity. Any future development or changes to
the proposed development, including, but not limited to, the relocation of built -upon area and the construction of
additional built -upon area, will require approval or a Stormwater Management permit application and permit issuance
from the DEMLR prior to any construction.
The original signed "Stormwater Permit Exemption" letter is being mailed to the property owner, Miles D Freedman, at
the following address (NOTE: An electronic version of this letter can be found in our online repository:
