Mr. Best,
This office has reviewed the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan submitted for the project listed
below. We find the plan to be acceptable with the attached modifications and/or performance
reservations and hereby issue this Letter of Approval. Please be advised that Section 26-228 requires
that a copy of the approved Soil Erosion Control Plan be on file at the job site.
The Buncombe County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance is a performance oriented
program requiring protection of the natural resources and adjoining properties. If, following
commencement of this project it is determined that the plan is inadequate, this office may require
revisions to the plan and its implementation. The approval for this project is good for the time frame
stated on the original land disturbing permit. This permit shall become null and void if you have
not made progress to begin construction activities on the site within six months after the date of
approval. Renewal of the land disturbing permit will require a new plan review submittal with
associated fees.
The approval of an erosion plan is conditioned on the applicant's 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. A copy of the erosion control plan for any land disturbing activity that involves the
utilization of ditches for the purpose of de -watering or lowering the water table must be forwarded to
the director of water quality. We look forward to working with you on this project.
*As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an
electronic Notice of Intent (NOI) for requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the
NCGO1000 Construction Stormwater General Permit. This form MUST be submitted prior to the
commencement of any land disturbing activity on the below named project. The NOI form may be
accessed at deg.nc.,eov/NCG01. Please direct all questions about the NOI form or the process to
Annette Lucas at Annette. lucas(a)ncdenr.Qov or Paul Clark at Paul. clark(a»ncdenr.Pov. Initially,
DEMLR will not charge a fee for coverage under the NCG01 permit. However, on or after May 1,
2019, a $100 fee will be charged annually. This fee is to be sent to the DEMLR Stormwater Central
Office staff in Raleigh and is not collected by this local program Once the NCG01 permit has been
completed and approved by DEMLR, a project permit number will be given for this project that
must be written on the Buncombe County Land Disturbing Permit, which must be on site
throughout the construction phase of the project.
When the project is complete, the financially responsible party or their representative will contact
Buncombe County Erosion and Sedimentation Control Office to close out the Erosion and
Sedimentation Control Plan. A Certificate of Compliance will be issued for the project once the
site meets the requirement as stated in the original Letter of Approval and standards stated in the
Buncombe County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance. The responsible party will
then be instructed to visit deg.nc.kov17VCG01 to submit an e-NOT (electronic Notice of
Termination) form for closing out the NCG01 permit. Please refer to the attached NCG01 Fact
Sheet,
A Combined Self -Monitoring and Self -Inspection Form for the NCGO1 is enclosed. Please review
all pertinent documents prior to starting construction. We look forward to working with you on this
project.

engineering plans and maintained at all times. Alternate measures must first be
approved with the engineer of record and regulatory site inspector prior to
installation.
Clearing limits for grading must be clearly delineated in the field as shown on the
approved engineering plans. Any additional clearing or land disturbing activity that
disturbs the ground surface outside of those limits will constitute a violation of the
County's Ordinance and will be subject to penalties.
Additional erosion control measures and BMP devices will be required if approved
measures are not sufficient to contain and control sediment and runoff on the
project site. Additional measures to help control and reduce on -site runoff during
construction will be discussed at pre -construction meeting.

clearing to the overall site must first be submitted for review to this regulatory office
and approved prior to continuation of construction. Failure to resubmit could result
in possible issuance of stop work orders, holding of any building inspections, or
