Dear NPDES Permittee:
N.C. DEMLR Stormwater Program has renewed General Permit NCG010000, under which the subject project is
covered.This permit is reissued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215. 1 and
the Memorandum of Agreement between the state of North Carolina and the U. S. Environmental Protection
Agency, dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended).The Draft General Permit was posted for public
comment from February 13, 2024,to March 25, 2024.The new General Permit became effective on April 1,
2024.
The General Permit authorizes discharges of stormwater, and it specifies your obligations for discharge controls,
management, monitoring, and record keeping. Please review the new NCG010000 permit to familiarize yourself
with the changes in the reissued permit. In addition, please see the Construction Stormwater web page to view
the summary of changes from the previous permit to the current permit document and the Responses to
Comments document.
The more significant changes in the General Permit since your last Certificate of Coverage (COC) was issued are
noted in the Draft Permit Fact Sheet that accompanied the public notice posted on the Stormwater Permitting
Unit's website with the new General Permit(https://www.deq.nc.gov/stormwaternotices).
Permit COCs with no outstanding fees were automatically renewed. However, a new COC will not be generated.
This letter serves as notification that the permittee's COC has been renewed and maintains coverage under the
current General Permit. If the renewal date above reflects a date later than April 1, it was renewed upon
payment of an owed fee.
