Dear Mr. Eckard,

This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan and hereby issues
this Letter of Approval with Modifications and Performance Reservations. A list of the
modifications and reservations is attached. This plan approval shall expire three (3) years
following the date of approval, if no land -disturbing activity has been undertaken, as is
required by Title 15A NCAC 4B .0129. Should the plan not perform adequately, a revised plan
will be required (G.S. 113A-54.1)(b).
As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an
electronic Notice of Intent (NOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the
NCGO10000 Construction Stormwater General Permit. This form MUST be submitted and COC
issued prior to the commencement of any land disturbing activity on the above -named project.
The NOI form may be accessed at deq.nc.gov/NCG01. Please direct questions about the NOI
form to Annette Lucas at Annette. lucasOncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at Paul.clark ncdenr. ov.
After you submit a complete and correct NOI Form, a COC will be emailed to you within three
business days. Initially, DEMLR will not charge a fee for coverage under the NCG01 permit.

However, a $100 fee will soon be charged annually. This fee is to be sent to the DEMLR
Stormwater Central Office staff in Raleigh.
Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) and the NCG01 permit require that the following documentation
be kept on file at the job site:
1. The approved E&SC plan as well as any approved deviation.
2. The NCG01 permit and the COC, once it is received.
3. Records of inspections made during the previous 12 months.
AIso, this letter gives the notice required by G.S.113A-61.1(a) of our right of periodic inspection
to insure compliance with the approved plan.
North Carolina's Sedimentation Pollution Control Program is performance -oriented, requiring
protection of existing natural resources and adjoining properties. If, following the
commencement of this project, it is determined that the erosion and sedimentation control
plan is inadequate to meet the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of
1973 (North Carolina General Statute 113A-51 through 66), this office may require revisions
to the plan and implementation of the revisions to ensure compliance with the Act.
Acceptance and approval of this plan is conditioned upon your compliance with Federal and
State water quality laws, regulations, and rules. In addition, local city or county ordinances or
rules may also apply to this land -disturbing activity. This approval does not supersede any
other permit or approval.
Please note that this approval is based in part on the accuracy of the information provided in
the Financial Responsibility Form, which you provided. This permit allows for a land -
disturbance, as called for on the application plan, not to exceed the approved acres. Exceeding
the acreage will be a violation of this permit and would require a revised plan and additional
application fee. You are requested to file an amended form if there is any change in the
information included on the form. In addition, it would be helpful if you notify this office of
the proposed starting date for this project. Please notify us if you plan to have a
preconstruction conference.
Your cooperation is appreciated.
