II. SCHEDULE OF COMPLIANCE
1. No homeowner/lot owner/developer shall fill in, alter, or pipe any drainage feature
(such as swales) shown on the approved plans as 'part of the stormwater
management system without submitting a revision to the permit and receiving
approval from the Division.
2. The permittee is responsible for verifying that the proposed built -upon area for
the entire lot, including driveways and sidewalks, does not exceed the allowable
built -upon area. Once the lot transfer is complete, the built -upon area may not be
revised without approval from the Division of Water Quality, and responsibility for
meeting the built -upon area limit is transferred to the individual property owner.
3. If an Architectural Review Board or Committee is required to review plans for
compliance with the BUA limit, the plans reviewed must include all proposed
built -upon area. Any approvals given by the Board do not relieve the homeowner
of the responsibility to maintain compliance with the permitted BUA limit.
Page 3of9
State Stormwater Management Systems
Permit No. SW8 051203 Modification
4. The permittee shall submit to the Director and shall have received approval for
revised plans, specifications, and calculations prior to construction, for any
modification to the approved plans, including, but not limited to, those listed
below:
a. Any revision to the approved plans, regardless of size.
b. Project name change.
c. Transfer of ownership.
d. Redesign or addition to the approved amount of built -upon area.
e. Further subdivision, acquisition, or sale of all or part of the project area. The

was sought.
f. Filling in, altering, or piping of any vegetative conveyance shown on the
approved plan.
5. The Director may determine that other revisions to the project should require a
modification to the permit.
6. The Director may notify the permittee when the permitted site does not meet one
or more of the minimum requirements of the permit. Within the time frame
specified in the notice, the permittee shall submit a written time schedule to the
Director for modifying the site to meet minimum requirements. The permittee
shall provide copies of revised plans and certification in writing to the Director
that the changes have been made.
7. The stormwater management system shall be constructed in its entirety,
vegetated and operational for its intended use prior to the construction of any
built -upon surface.
8. During construction, erosion shall be kept to a minimum and any eroded areas of
the system will be repaired immediately.
9. Upon completion of construction, prior to issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy,
and prior to operation of this permitted facility, a certification must be received
from an appropriate designer for the system installed certifying that the permitted
facility has been installed in accordance with this permit, the approved plans and
specifications, and other supporting documentation. Any deviations from the
approved plans and specifications must be noted on the Certification.
10. If the stormwater system was used as an Erosion Control device, it must be
restored to design condition prior to operation as a stormwater treatment device,
and prior to occupancy of the facility.
11. Permanent seeding requirements for the stormwater control must follow the
guidelines established in the North Carolina Erosion and Sediment Control
Planning and Design Manual.

12. Prior to the sale of any lot, the following deed restrictions must be recorded:
a. The following covenants are intended to ensure ongoing compliance with
State Stormwater Management Permit Number SW8 051203 Modification,
as issued on January 25, 2008, by the Division of Water Quality under
NCAC 2H.1000.

without the express written consent of the State of North Carolina, Division
of Water Quality.
e. Alteration of the drainage as shown on the approved plans may not take
place without the concurrence of the Division of Water Quality.
f. The maximum built -upon area per lot is 4,000 square feet. This allotted

structures, asphalt, concrete, gravel, brick, stone, slate, coquina and parking
areas, but does not include raised, open wood decking, or the water surface
of swimming pools.
g. Lots within CAMA's Area of Environmental Concern may be subject to a
reduction in their allowable built -upon area due to CAMA regulations.
h. All runoff from built upon area or the lot must drain into the permitted
system. This may be accomplished through providing roof drain gutters
which drain to the street, grading the lot to drain toward the street, or
grading perimeter swales and directing them into the pond or street. Lots
that will naturally drain into the system are not required to provide these
measures.
i. Built -upon area in excess of the permitted amount will require a permit
modification.
13. A copy of the recorded deed restrictions must be submitted to the Division within

treatment systems, subject to the following criteria:
a. The fountain must draw its water from less than 2' below the permanent
pool surface.
b. Separated units, where the nozzle, pump and intake are connected by
tubing, may be used only if they draw water from the surface in the deepest
part of the pond.
c. The falling water from the fountain must be centered in the pond, away from
the shoreline.
d. The maximum horsepower for the fountain's pump is based on the
permanent pool volume. The maximum pump power for a fountain in the
wet detention ponds is listed on page 3 of this permit in Section 1.5.

the transfer. Records of maintenance activities performed to date will be
required.
16. The permittee shall at all times provide the operation and maintenance
necessary to assure that all components of the permitted stormwater system

2. The permittee is responsible for compliance with all of the terms and conditions
of this permit until such time as the Director approves the transfer request.
