Subject: Post -Construction Stormwater Management Permit No. SW6190102
FB-SOF Special Tactics Facility, Phase 3 PN 76514
High Density Project
Hoke County
Dear Mr. Heins:
The Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources received a complete, modified Post -Construction
Stormwater Management Permit Application for the subject project on July 20, 2022. Staff review of the plans
and specifications has determined that the project, as proposed, complies with the Stormwater Regulations set
forth in Title 15A NCAC 2H.1000 amended on January 1, 2017 (2017 Rules). The following modifications are
included and covered by this permit: To accommodate the construction of the FB-SOF Operations Annex
Building, PN 92793, the drainage area to bioretention cell 1 is increased from 258,605 square feet to 260,924
square feet (+2,319 square feet), the amount of BUA draining to bioretention cell 1 is increased from 158,071
square feet to 179,218 square feet (+21,147 square feet total (+15,749 square feet of building area, +2,089
square feet of parking area, and +3,309 square feet of sidewalk area)), and the ponding depth of bioretention cell
1 is increased from 10 inches to 12 inches via the addition of a ring riser on the outlet control structure (resulting
in a new provided storage volume of 13,572 cubic feet). No changes were made to the layout of bioretention
cell 1 or any other bioretention cells. We are hereby forwarding the modified, updated, and re -issued Permit No.
SW6190102 dated July 28, 2022, for the construction, operation and maintenance of the built -upon areas (BUA)
and stormwater control measures (SCMs) associated with the subject project. Please replace the previous
application (SWU-101), with the attached modified versions. Please add the enclosed approved plans,
calculations, and Supplement-EZ Form to the previously approved plan set.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 3, 2027 and does not supersede any other
agency permit that may be required. The project shall be subject to the conditions and limitations as specified
therein. Failure to comply with these requirements will result in future compliance problems. Please note that
this permit is not transferable except after notice to and approval by the Division.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to request
an adjudicatory hearing by filing a written petition with the Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH). The
written petition must conform to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes and must be filed with the
OAH within thirty (30) days of receipt of this permit. You should contact the OAH with all questions regarding
the filing fee (if a filing fee is required) and/or the details of the filing process at 6714 Mail Service Center,
Raleigh, NC 27699-6714, or via telephone at 919-431-3000, or visit their website at www.NCOAH.com.
Unless such demands are made this permit shall be final and binding.
This project will be kept on file at the Fayetteville Regional Office. If you have any questions concerning this
permit, please contact Jim Farkas in the Central Office, at (919) 707-3646 orjim.farkas@ncdenr.gov.

specifications are incorporated by reference and are enforceable part of this permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until April 3, 2027 and shall be subject to the
following specified conditions and limitations. The permit issued shall continue in force and effect until
the permittee files a request with the Division for a permit modification, transfer, renewal, or

prohibit the Director from reopening and modifying the permit, revoking and reissuing the permit, or
terminating the permit for cause as allowed by the laws, rules, and regulations contained in Title 15A
NCAC 2H.1000 and NCGS 143-215.1 et.al.
BUA REQUIREMENTS. The maximum amount of BUA allowed for the entire project is 361,857
square feet. The runoff from all BUA within the permitted high density drainage areas of this
project must be directed into the permitted SCMs. The BUA requirements and allocations for
this project are as follows:

BUA, respectively, within the delineated drainage areas. This permit does not provide any
allocation of BUA for future development within the delineated drainage areas.
2. PERVIOUS AREA IMPROVEMENTS. At this time, none of the pervious area improvements
listed in G.S. 143-214.7(b2) or the Stormwater Design Manual have been proposed for this
project. Pervious area improvements will be allowed in this project if documentation is provided
demonstrating those improvements meet the requirements of the stormwater rule.

and maintenance agreement must be followed.
c. PRETREATMENT. The following pretreatment device(s) has (have) been provided to
prevent clogging in the infiltraion SCMs: Minimum 3 foot sod strip.
4. STORMWATER OUTLETS. The peak flow from the 10-year storm event shall not cause
erosion downslope of the discharge point.
5. VEGETATED SETBACKS. A 30-foot wide vegetative setback must be provided and maintained
in grass or other vegetation adjacent to all surface waters as shown on the approved plans. The
setback is measured horizontally from the normal pool elevation of impounded structures, from
the top of bank of each side of streams or rivers, and from the mean high waterline of tidal
waters, perpendicular to the shoreline.
a. BUA IN THE VEGETATED SETBACK. BUA may not be added to the vegetated setback
except as shown on the approved plans.
b. RELEASE OF STORMWATER NOT TREATED IN AN SCM. Stormwater that is not treated
in an SCM must be released at the edge of the vegetated setback and allowed to flow
through the setback as dispersed flow.
6. CONSTRUCTION. During construction, erosion shall be kept to a minimum and any eroded
areas of the on -site stormwater system will be repaired immediately.
a. PROJECT CONSTRUCTION, OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE. During construction, all
operation and maintenance for the project shall follow the Erosion Control Plan requirements

Once the device is converted to a SCM, the permittee shall provide and perform the
operation and maintenance as outlined in the applicable section below.
b. SCM RESTORATION. If one or more of the SCMs are used as an Erosion Control device
and/or removed or destroyed during construction, it must be restored to the approved design
condition prior to close-out of the erosion control plan and/or project completion and/or
transfer of the permit. Upon restoration, a new or updated certification will be required for the
SCM(s) and a copy must be submitted to the appropriate DEQ regional office.
