Subject: NPDES Permit Number NCS000396
City of Goldsboro
On July 12, 2004 the North Carolina General Assembly ratified Senate Bill 1210 (S 1210)
- Phase It Stormwater Management. The Governor signed the bill on August 2, 2004. This bill
addresses implementation of the federal NPDES Phase H stormwater program in North Carolina.
In S 1210, the General Assembly provided a framework that will allow state and local
government agencies to begin implementing the program. The bill establishes minimum
stormwater management requirements for municipal storm sewer systems and also applies
stormwater controls to some developing areas around these municipalities.
Phase 1.1 Draft permits for local governments were publicly noticed the week of
November 1, 2004 for those communities identified in the 1990 U.S. Census. Your community's
permit has been noticed and copies of the draft permit are available at:
http://h2o.enr.state.ne.us/su/phase2_draft_permits.htm
We look forward to receiving your comments on this draft permit and continuing to work
together for the benefit of your community and North Carolina. All comments and request
should reference draft permit number NCS000396. Please provide your comments by Friday,
December 10, 2004. If you have any questions about this draft permit don't hesitate to contact
me at (919) 733-5083, ext. 545.

(g) The permittee will provide information concerning areas of water quality
improvement or degradation. Depending on the level of implementation of the
Stormwater Plan, this information may be submitted based on pilot studies,
individual projects or on a watershed or sub -watershed basis.
The Director may notify the permittee when the Stormwater Plan does not meet one or
more of the requirements of the permit. Within 30 days of such notice, the permittee will
submit a plan and time schedule to the Director for modifying the Stormwater Plan to
meet the requirements. The Director may approve the corrective action plan, approve a
plan with modifications, or reject the proposed plan. The permittee will provide
certification in writing (in accordance with Part IV, Paragraph 2) to the Director that the
changes have been made. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to limit the
