Dear Mr. Robinson:
This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan to
be acceptable with modifications and hereby issue this letter of Approval with Modifications. The
Modifications Required for Approval are listed on the attached page. 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
NCG010000 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.Lucas2ncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at Paul. Clark2ncdenr. 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

$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 NCGO 1 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.
North Carolina's Sedimentation Pollution Control Program 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. 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. You
are requested to file an amended form if there is any change in the information included on the
form. 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.
