Dear Mr. Allen,
This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan
to be acceptable with modifications and hereby issue this letter of Approval with Modifications.
The Modifications Required for Approval are listed on the attached page. 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.
As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an
electronic Notice of Intent (eNOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the
NCG010000 Construction General Permit. After the form is reviewed and found to be complete,
you will receive a link with payment instructions for the $100 annual permit fee. After the fee
is received, you will receive the COC via email. You MUST obtain the COC prior to
commencement of any land disturbing activity. The eNOI form may be accessed at
deq.nc.gov/NCG01. Please direct questions about the eNOI form to Annette Lucas at
[e-mail] or Paul Clark at Paul. [e-mail]. If the owner/operator

of this project changes in the future, the new responsible party is required to apply for his/her
own COC.
Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) and the NCG01 permit require that the following documentation
be kept on file at the job site:
I. The approved E&SC plan as well as any approved deviation.
2. The NCGO1 permit and the COC, once it is received.
3. Records of inspections made during the previous 12 months.
Also, 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.
Sincerely,
PredWalker, P.E"&
