RE: Grading Permit #3-19 Revision to GP 42-17 Revision #1, Pacific Place
Dear Ms. Stephanie Norris,
This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan to be
acceptable with performance reservations and modifications. Please read the permit conditions carefully and
return the signed blue original to our office and keen the copy for your records.
As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an electronic
Notice of Intent (N01), form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC), under the NCGO10000 Construction
Stormwater General Permit. This form MUST be submitted prior to the commencement of any land disturbing
activity on the above named project, according to State Stormwater requirements. The NOI form may be
accessed at deq.nc.gov/NCG01. Please direct questions about the NOI form to Annette Lucas at
Annette.lucas@ncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at Paul.clark@ncddenr.eov. After you submit a complete and correct
NOI Form, a COC will be emailed to you within three business days. 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.
A copy of the enclosed land disturbing permit, a copy of the approved erosion and sedimentation control
plan as well as any approved deviations, the NCG01 permit, a copy of the Certificate of Compliance (COC),
records of inspections made during the previous 30 days and a rain gauge, must be posted at the job site.
The land disturbing fee of is 5850 for 39 lots is due to be paid to New Hanover County Engineering, to
my attention, prior to issuance of Plat Recordation.
A preconstruction meeting is optional prior to any land disturbing activity on this project. Please contact
me at (910) 798-7139 if you would like to schedule this meeting in our office. If you choose not to have the
preconstruction meeting, you need to contact us with the date land disturbing activity will take place onsite and
again once the initial erosion control measures are installed.

New Hanover County's Erosion and Sedimentation Control Program is performance- oriented, requiring
protection of existing natural resources and adjoining properties. If, following the commencement of the project,
it is determined that the plan is inadequate to meet the requirements of the New Hanover County's Erosion and
Sedimentation Control Ordinance, this office may require revisions to the plan and its implementation of the
revisions to insure compliance with the ordinance.
This land disturbing permit will expire within 1 year following the date of approval if no land disturbing
activity has been undertaken. If no activity takes place within one year after work has begun onsite, the permit
will expire. Please contact this office to reactivate a permit that has expired.
Acceptance and approval of this erosion control plan is conditioned on your compliance with Federal
and State water quality laws, regulations and rules. This permit will not preclude any other permits or approvals
necessary for beginning or completing this development. It is the owner's responsibility to have all the approvals
and permits that are required prior to beginning construction.
Please note this approval is based in part on the accuracy of the information provided in the Financially
Responsibility Form, which you provided. You are required to file an amended form if there is any change in the
information included on the form.
Your cooperation is appreciated,
