Mr. Anson and Mr. Nifong:

Please note that in accordance with 15A NCAC 02H .1044(5)(b), the Division is providing you with a dra? permit with
special condi?ons per 15A NCAC 02H .1044(6). You have calendar 10 days (un?l close of business on Tuesday, January
30, 2024) to submit comments or concerns for the a?ached dra? permit back to the Division (or address the comments).
Once either the 10 days have passed or you have responded to this email with your comments/concerns on the dra?
permit, whichever occurs first, the final permit will be issued for this project.

If the comments in A?achment D are addressed within the 10 day window, the highlighted sec?ons of the permit (in
addi?on to the date of issuance) will be edited before final approval (the references to Sec?on D & the minor devia?ons
will be removed and the drainage area sec?on will be revised to reflect the two dis?nct drainage areas of this project).

If you have any further ques?ons, do not hesitate to reach out to me.

Thanks,

Good A?ernoon,

We received your post-construc?on stormwater permit fast-track final applica?on for the subject project on 12/7/23.
Reviews under the Fast-Track permi?ng process can take up to 40 calendar days to complete. You can see where this
project stands in the review queue by emailing postconstruc?[e-mail] (We have an autoreply set up that has the
review queue on it). Please upload all documents that you mailed into our office through the link provided below. Be
sure to choose the Central Office as the Primary Contact office.

h?ps://edocs.deq.nc.gov/Forms/SW-Supplemental-Upload

IMPORTANT NOTE: Please ensure that each file is uploaded under its appropriate file type. Addi?onal file types can be
entered into the electronic form by clicking on the “Add Another Post-Construc?on File Upload” link directly below the
“State Stormwater Informa?on Uploads” sec?on of the form. YOU MUST CLICK ON THE “ADD ANOTHER POST-
CONSTRUCTION FILE UPLOAD” TO ADD ADDITIONAL FILE TYPES TO THE SUBMISSION. Merely changing the file type
dropdown as you upload the various files (without adding addi?onal file uploads) will upload all of the files as the last
file type selected, the submission will get flagged during review, and you will need to resubmit the files. Please do not
upload en?re plan sets through this form, but rather upload the relevant individual sheets under the appropriate file
type. Selec?ng the correct file type ensures that the files are properly named in the electronic repository and it helps
expedite the review process. NOTE: We do not require and we discourage the upload/submission of extraneous plan
sheets (such as ligh?ng plans, u?lity plans, striping plans, sight distance plans, etc…) as these files are not needed for
review.

Please type in permit #: SW4231203

This project will be reviewed by Jim Farkas, if you have any ques?ons, please contact them at
postconstruc?[e-mail] or at 919-707-3646.
