Davis, PE, CPM Director January 15, 2014 Sandpiper Bay Golf & Country Club Tim Tilma, General Manager 800 N. Sandpiper Club Drive SW Sunset Beach, NC 28468 Pat McCrory, Governor John E. Skvarla, III, Secretary Subject: State Stormwater Management Permit No. SW8 980707 Name/Ownership Change, Permit Correction and Permit Extension Sandpiper Bay Plantation Golf & Country Club High Density Residential Project Brunswick County Dear Mr. Tilma: Effective August 1, 2013 the State Stormwater program has been transferred from the Division of Water Quality (DWQ) to the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR). All previous references to DWQ will remain in older stormwater permits issued prior to August 1, 2013 until they are modified. Please note that this permit will now reference DEMLR as the Division responsible for issuance of the permit. On August 5, 2009, the Governor signed Session Law 2009-406. This law impacts any development approval issued by the former Division of Water Quality under Article 21 of Chapter 143 of the General Statutes, which is current and valid at any point between January 1, 2008, and December 31, 2010. The law extends the effective period of any stormwater permit that was set to expire during this time frame up to three (3) years from its current expiration date. On August 2, 2010, the Governor signed Session Law 2010-177, which granted an extra year for an extension of up to four (4) years. Accordingly, this permit shall be effective until November 21, 2014, which includes all the available extensions. On August 19, 2013, the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (DEMLR) received a completed and signed Name/Ownership Change Form to transfer this permit back to Sandpiper Bay Golf and Country Club. A file review was performed on June 19, 2012 by DWQ prior to the previous transfer to the POA, and the Engineer's Certification was submitted on March 14, 2000. The site is currently in compliance with the terms and conditions of this corrected and transferred state stormwater management permit. The Division is hereby notifying you that permit SW8 980707 has been transferred effective January 15, 2014. For your records, please find enclosed a copy of the corrected and updated permit, a copy of the June 19, 2012 inspection report, and a copy of the August 19, 2013 Name/Ownership Change form. Please retain this cover letter and the attached permit for your files. The modifications covered by this permit include the following: 1. This permit is the "Master" permit for the interconnected pond system BMP for the 214.61 acre project/drainage area. 2. The 71 Phase 1 single family lots under SW8 130815 are now listed as an offsite project draining to this permitted stormwater system. The BUA per lot under the offsite permit is to be administered by the Sandpiper Bay Property Owners Association, Inc. 3. The Sunset Village West permits under SW8 981024, 020501, 021125, 030705, and 040121 are now listed as offsite projects draining to this permitted stormwater system. The BUA under these offsite permits will be administered by the Sunset Village at Sandpiper Bay Golf & Country Club Condominium Association, Inc. 4. The Wyndfall Subdivision permit under SW8 991118 is now listed as an offsite project draining to this permitted stormwater system.

All new development within the project must receive a separate offsite stormwater permit or modify an existing offsite permit prior to construction. 2. No homeowner/lot owner/developer shall fill in, alter, or pipe any drainage feature (such as swales) shown on the approved plans as part of the stormwater management system without submitting a revision to the permit and receiving approval from the Division. 3. The permittee is responsible for verifying that the proposed built -upon area does not exceed the allowable built -upon area. The permitted amount of built -upon area may not be revised without approval from the Division. 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 the approved plans, regardless of size. b. Redesign or addition to the drainage area or to the approved amount of built -upon area. c. The sale, conveyance or further subdivision of the project area. d. Filling in, altering, or piping of any vegetative conveyance shown on the approved plan. 5. The Director may determine that other revisions to the project should require a modification to the permit. 6. 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. Page 4 of 7 State Stormwater Management Systems Permit # SW8 980707 The stormwater management system shall be constructed in its entirety, vegetated and operational for its intended use prior to the construction of any built -upon surface. 8. During construction, erosion shall be kept to a minimum and any eroded areas of the system will be repaired immediately. 9. The permittee grants permission to DENR Staff to enter the property for the purposes of inspecting the project for compliance with the conditions of this permit. 10. Upon completion of construction, prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy, and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a certification must be received from an appropriate designer for the system installed certifying that the permitted facility has been installed in accordance with this permit, the approved plans and specifications, and other supporting documentation. Any deviations from the approved plans and specifications must be noted on the Certification. 11. If the permanent pool volume is greater than 30,000 cubic feet, a decorative spray fountain will be allowed in the stormwater treatment system, subject to the following criteria: a. The fountain must draw its water from less than 2' below the permanent pool surface. b. Separated units, where the nozzle, pump and intake are connected by tubing, may be used only if they draw water from the surface in the deepest part of the pond. c. The falling water from the fountain must be centered in the pond, away from the shoreline. d. The maximum horsepower for the fountain's pump is based on the permanent pool volume. The maximum pump power for a fountain in this pond system is 1 HP. 12. If the stormwater system was used as an Erosion Control device, it must be restored to design condition prior to operation as a stormwater treatment device, and prior to occupancy of the facility. 13. Prior to the sale of any lot or parcel, deed restrictions must be recorded which require each lot to direct its runoff into the permitted system.

The documents include the subsequent plan revisions. However, the final permit you receive will be slightly different in that the 71 single family lots referred to will no longer be referenced in that permit, but they do remain as part of the drainage area to the 980707 pond accounted for as 100% impervious. My plan is to create a new offsite permit for the HOA with the 6,000 sf per lot limit. The golf course gets the "pond" and it's maintenance responsibility, and the HOA gets to control the lot BUA via the new offsite permit. I have scanned and attached the designer's certification for the 980707 pond. The HOA apparently had new deed restrictions recorded. The ponds were designed for a 100% impervious drainage area. The original 4,000 sf per lot limitation was recorded on August 2, 2002 in Deed Book-1613 at Page 1187. The HOA supposedly recorded an amendment which changed the BUA per lot t 6 00 The approved plans should be in either Mr. Grigg's possession as the original permit holder, or perhaps they were given to the HOA during their short tenure as "permittee". Regardless, the Division also has our file copy, and you will need a copy as well. If neither Mr. Grigg nor the HOA has these plans, arrangements can be made to get you a copy at your expense - Allways Graphics is pretty reasonable, about $3.50 per sheet. The plans can also be scanned and emailed if you prefer. The original approved O&M agreement from 1998 is attached. The Golf Course and the HOA were supposed to be working under that agreement during their tenure as permittee. You can waive the need for maintenance records. Those records should already be in the possession of the Golf Course, because they should have been kept by Mr. Grigg and the golf course during the time they had this permit. All of the newer permits require record -keeping, but most of the older ones do not An inspection was done in 2009, with the only compliance issue being the fact that the permit expired. A followup inspection was conducted in July, 2012 just before the permit was transferred to the HOA, and the project was deemed compliant because it had been renewed. A copy of the 2009 and 2012 compliance evaluation inspection reports are attached (CEI BIMS). Because the permit was in the possession of the Golf Course for many years before it was transferred to the HOA, and the HOA only had it for a little over a year, you can waive the need for another inspection before the Division transfers the permit back to the Golf Course.

I am preparing to sign the document that.changes the ownership of Storm water permit SW8 980707 from the Sandpiper HOA to Sandpiper Bay Golf & Country Club. Mr. Tom Goldsmith , President of the HOA, has signed and had notarized his portion of the form. I have questions on my part of the form. In Section V, I have to sign that I have recieved the most recent permit, the designers certification for each BMP, etc. Please see the attached form. These questions relate to each of the "square" bullit points near the top of the page. There are several items that I have to sign for that I reviewed and will comply with.... and am trying to do the correct thing in this matter. Do all of these apply to this permit transfer ? I am supposed to "check all that apply to this permit' 1. The most recent permit that I have is dated Jan. 30, 2003 and was granted to Mr. Roger Grigg, Sandpiper Bay Land Company. According to the PROPOSED PERMITTEE CERTIFICATION -- Part V, I need the most recent permit --- that evidently belonged to the Sandpiper HOA. If appropriate, you can waive my need to see this permit if there are no major changes to it. 2. Do I need to see the designers certification for each BMP ? Who is the designer, where do I get that certification? 3. I know of no recorded deed restrictions, covenants, or easements that apply to the water permits. 4. Does your office have the DWQ approved plans or approved as built plans. I am not aware that we have those plans at my location. 5. Does your office have the approved maintenance agreement? 6. Are the past maintenance records. required ---- this line has a (where required ) clause in it. ? 7. Do I need to see a DWQ stormwater inspection report showing compliance within 90 days prior to this transfer.? 8. I am unsure of many of these requests --- can they be waived , or taken to be satisfied by many years of satisfactory water level management ?, or do they apply to this permit.?

The 990136 permit you currently hold for the 9-hole Golf Course Addition will expire in December 2013, and needs to be renewed. The 980707 permit is currently set to expire in November 2014. The renewal fee is charged only once per permit during the permit term. When the permit is renewed in 2014, the fee will be collected with that renewal application and the permit will be renewed for 8 years to 2022 or perhaps to 2024, if the Legislature approves of a 10-year term. The renewal fee won't be due again until 2022 or 2024. In simpler terms, that is just over $126.00 a year for the 2 permits based on an 8 year term and $101.00 a year based on a 10 year term. I'm hopeful that an organization as large as Sandpiper has the ability to set aside $126.00 a year from the HOA/POA fees to go toward the stormwater renewal fees. I am unable to waive a renewal fee. We agreed with the HOA to not charge a transfer fee to get the permit transferred back to the golf course. I only required that the signatures on the transfer form be notarized.

Ms. Lewis... thank you for your reply email. I am concerned about the renewal fee that you mentioned in last part of your reply to me. What is the status of the permit... when does it need to be renewed? Is there a cost for the transfer? Since this permit has some highly unusual dynamics going along with it.... if there are any fees.. can they be waived?

The 980707 permit and the 990136 permit are both "Master" permits which cover 2 different no -discharge pond systems. A Master permit covers the BMP (Best Management Practice) and allocates BUA to the various development tracts within the drainage area of that BMP. It is most useful for keeping track of large, multi -phase developments. The Golf Course was the permittee of record for the 980707 permit before we transferred it to the HOA (at their insistence). They thought that both permitted no -discharge pond systems were covered under the 990136 permit. They also believed that all they were getting with the 980707 permit was the ability to administer the BUA per lot for those 71 lots covered by that permit. After I explained to them about the 2 separate pond systems, and that what they ended up with was the maintenance responsibility of that pond system, they immediately understood that they needed to transfer it back to the Golf Course. Maintenance does include keeping the algae and weed population under control as well as stabilizing the pond banks. The Golf Course should hold that permit (minus the lots) so that you can continue to control the water levels, draw water for golf course irrigation, and maintain the pond. If you let the HOA keep the pond permit, then you lose control over the water levels and possibly the ability to irrigate from the ponds. I plan to take the 71 lots out of the 980707 permit and put them under a separate offsite permit that will be issued to the HOA so they can track the BUA. There is a permit renewal fee every 8 years, currently set at $505.00. The renewal period may be increased to 10 years. If it is, those affected permittees will be notified. .< Linda Lewis INC Division of Water Quality 127 Cardinal Drive Ext.

I have been approached by Tom Goldsmith, the Sandpiper Bay HOA President, with a request to transfer a water permit to North Star Carolina / Sandpiper Bay Golf & Country Club I beleive that the permit in question is the SW8 980707... which at one point belonged to Roger Grigg of Sandpiper Bay Land Company. Evidently, somehow this permit was transferred to the Sandpiper HOA. My questions are: 1. What happened to that permit.. and why. 2. Why does the HOA want to transfer it to my company.? 3. What are the pros and cons of my company taking over that permit.? 4. I beleive this permit is a Master Permit ? What does that mean? 5. We irrigate our Golf Courses with water from these ponds. How does that effect the water permit issue.? 6. Are they fees to holding permits? 7. Does having the permit mean the holder be responsible to pond bank maintenance and water quality ?--- ie algae, duckweed, etc. 8. Mr. Goldsmith gave me the Transfer request on Friday, July 26, and it is signed by a notary. I need to review this and be aware of all consequnces --- intended and unintended, prior to approving, or denying this request. My company is owned by a man who lives in California. As the General Manager, I have a duty to him to keep him informed and to do his will in matters of land development. Water permits have effects on development, so I must be prudent in the actions I take in regard to this matter. I left a voice mail today as well, and would like to discuss this matter --- perhaps with a written reply/ answers to my questions above.

The five Sunset Village West offsite permits to Master Permit SW8 980707 will have to be transferred to the Sunset Village Condominium HOA. Contact information has been provided to NCDENR to accomplish this. The Golf Plantation Phase 6 offsite permit will be dealt with by Centex Homes (now Pulte Homes) and NCDENR staff. Sandpiper Bay POA has contacted the Centex representative and that process has begun. Once these actions are successfully completed we can consider the matter of these permits resolved. Thank you.

Reeder Acting Director Subject: Sandpiper Bay File Review Events Stormwater Permit Numbers SW8 980707 and SW8 990136 Brunswick County Dear Mr. Goldsmith: John E. Skvarla, III Secretary On March 20, 2013, Linda Lewis with the Division of Water Quality (DWQ), Wilmington Regional Office (WIRO), met with the Sandpiper Bay Property Owners Association (POA) to discuss two of the eleven permits associated with Sandpiper Bay subdivision. During the meeting POA members expressed some confusion over permit requirements and requested a detailed explanation of those requirements from DWQ staff. Therefore, DWQ researched and conducted a file review of the SW8 980707 and SW8 990136 permit files and determined that part of the POA confusion involved their belief that SW8 990136 was the only Master Permit with a pond, which was to be maintained by the Golf course, and that all of the offsite permits covering the home sites had been transferred to the POA. However, the correct information is that both SW8 980707 and SW8 990136 are "Master Permits", but they are the master permit of two different stormwater systems. Adding to the POA confusion is the fact that two of the interconnected ponds permitted under the 980707 permit (labeled as Lake A and Lake E in 990136) were expanded as part of the 990136 permit to treat some of the new 9-hole golf course "Golf Plantation" tracts. The proposed new interconnected lakes B (1-11), C and D were permitted under SW8 990136, but A and E were noted in the 990136 permit as having been "previously permitted" under SW8 980707. This was only meant to indicate that runoff from the 990136 project area is treated in both a proposed new pond system and in the offsite pond system from 980707, and was not meant to indicate that the ponds under 980707 were somehow "re -permitted" under 990136. The following information provides details on each of these permits. 1. Permit 980707 (Sandpiper Bay Sunset Village West) was issued for a series of interconnected, alternative design, wet detention ponds that treat runoff from the 18-hole golf course. Those approved plans show and label the "Phase I" development as the 37 lot condominium complex and 70 single family lots. Offsite permits associated with this Master that have not been transferred to the POA include: SW8 981024 Sunset Village West Phase 1 (Offsite to 980707); SW8 020501 Sunset Village West Phase 2 (Offsite to 980707); SW8 021125 Sunset Village West Phase 3 (Offsite to 980707); SW8 030705 Sunset Village West Phase 4 (Offsite to 980707); SW8 040121 Sunset Village West Phase 5 (Offsite to 980707); 2. Permit 990136 (Sandpiper Bay 9-Hole Golf Course Addition) was issued for a different series of interconnected, alternative design, wet detention ponds that treat runoff exclusively from the 9-hole golf course addition and the Golf Plantation development tracts located to the north of the 980707 project. Please note that ownership of the 990136 permit remains with the Golf Course.

Any interconnection between these 2 separate systems made by the golf course or the POA subsequent to the issuance of the permits is prohibited unless and until a modification is submitted to and approved by the Division. DWQ recommendations to clear up permit ownership and maintenance issues are provided below: 1. Permit SW8 980707 was transferred to the POA at the request of Mike Spinelli. However, based on the information above, we recommend that the 980707 permit be transferred back to the golf course for the continued maintenance responsibility of that alternative wet pond system. 2. The permittees for the other offsite permits that have not yet been transferred to the POA should immediately transfer those offsite permits to the POA upon completion of construction for each phase of development. 3. Once all offsite permits are transferred to the POA, the POA should consider consolidating them into one permit. If you agree with these recommendations please complete, sign and return separate appropriate permit transfer requests as outlined below: The request to transfer the 980707 permit will have the POA as the current permittee and North Star Management Corporation d/b/a Sandpiper Bay Golf and County Club as the proposed permittee, signed by Tim Tilma, General Manager. The request to transfer all 5 of the Sunset Village West offsite permits will have Crossman Communities of NC, Inc. (now Beazer Homes) as the current permittee with the POA as the proposed permittee. The request to transfer the Golf Plantation Phase 6 offsite permit will have Centex Homes as the current permittee and the POA as the proposed permittee.

This is one of the MaPermits for Sandpiper Bay covering the 18-hole golf course and one of the two alternative non -discharging wet pond water quality treatment systems. As the various phases developed over the years, they were issued offsite permits. In the meeting, the HOA indicated that they believed SW8 990136 was the only Master Permit and that the offsite permits covering the home sites would be transferred to them, while the golf course (Tim Tilma) was supposed to keep the master permit and be responsible for maintaining the pond system. In an effort to clear up the confusion, Linda Lewis conducted a file review of SW8 980707 and SW8 990136 over the course of 3 days — the results are presented below. Both SW8 980707 and SW8 990136 are "Master Permits" in their own right, but they are thek master permit of different stormwater systems. The 990136 permit was issued for the series of alternative design wet detention ponds that treat runoff from the 9-hole golf course addition located to the north of the 980707 project. According to the approved plans, these 2 pond P systems ultimately discharge to the same outlet ditch along the SSW property line, but were not permitted to be interconnected. Any interconnections between these 2 systems made by the golf course or the HOA subsequent to the issuance of the permits is prohibited unless and until a modification is submitted to and approved by the Division. The table below lists the +n phases and their associated permit numbers which drain to each of the alternative design pon systems.

The Division recommends consolidating- all the offsite permits. This will give the HOA just one "offsite" permit to refer to and keep track of. It is my understanding that in a letter dated June 15, 2012, Mike Spinelli insisted the Division transfer the 980707 permit to the HOA, despite the Division's attempts to explain that the 980707 permit was for the pond system. Per discussion with David Cox (inspector) and Georgette Scott (supervisor), with the Division of Water Quality in Wilmington, the reasons that Mr. Spinelli insisted on having the permit were two -fold — to increase the impervious area per lot from 4,000 sf to 6,500 sf and to have control of the pond water level.
