The enclosed Certificate of Approval must be posted at the job site. This plan approval shall expire three (3) years following the date of approval, if no land -disturbing activity has been undertaken, as is required by Title 15A NCAC 4B .0129. As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an electronic Notice of Intent (NOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the NCGO10000 Construction Stormwater General Permit. This form MUST be submitted and COC issued prior to the commencement of any land disturbing activity on the above -named project. The NOI form may be accessed at deq.nc.gov/NCGO1. Please direct questions about the NOI form to Annette Lucas at Annette.Lucas(2ncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at Paul. Clark(2ncdenr.gov. 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 NCGO1 permit. However, a D E Q North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality I Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources NORTH cnRa Nn Raleigh Regional Office 11628 Mail Service Center 13800 Barrett Drive I Raleigh, North Carolina 27609 919.791.4200 Letter of Approval Dominion Energy North Carolina February 7, 2020 Page 2 of 3 $100 fee will soon be charged annually. This fee is to be sent to the DEMLR Stormwater Central Office staff in Raleigh. Title 15A NCAC 413.0118(a) and the NCGO1 permit require that the following documentation be kept on file at the job site: 1. The approved E&SC plan as well as any approved deviation. 2. The NCGO1 permit and the COC, once it is received. 3. Records of inspections made during the previous 12 months. Also, this letter gives the notice required by G.S. 113A-61.1(a) of our right of periodic inspection to insure compliance with the approved plan. Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) requires that a copy of the approved erosion control plan be on file at the job site. Also, this letter gives the notice required by G.S. 113A-61.1(a) of our right of periodic inspection to insure compliance with the approved plan. North Carolina's Sedimentation Pollution Control Act is performance -oriented, requiring protection of existing natural resources and adjoining properties. If, following the commencement of this project, it is determined that the erosion and sedimentation control plan is inadequate to meet the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 (North Carolina General Statute 113A-51 through 66), this office may require revisions to the plan and implementation of the revisions to ensure compliance with the Act. Acceptance and approval of this plan is conditioned upon your compliance with Federal and State water quality laws, regulations, and rules. In addition, local city or county ordinances or rules may also apply to this land -disturbing activity. This approval does not supersede any other permit or approval. Please note that this approval is based in part on the accuracy of the information provided in the Financial Responsibility Form, which you provided. You are requested to file an amended form if there is any change in the information included on the form. This permit allows for a land - disturbance, as called for on the application plan, not to exceed the approved acres. Exceeding the acreage will be a violation of this permit and would require a revised plan and additional application fee. In addition, it would be helpful if you notify this office of the proposed starting date for this project. Please notify us if you plan to have a preconstruction conference.
