This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan to be acceptable

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/NCG01. Please direct questions about the NOI form to Annette Lucas at
Annette. lucas@nedenr. og_v or Paul Clark at Paul. clarknaa,ncdenr.Wv. After you submit a complete and correct
NOI Form, a COC will be emailed to you within three business days. A $100 fee will be charged annually
until a Notice of Termination is issued. This fee is to be sent to the DEMLR Stormwater Central Office staff
in Raleigh.

This letter gives the notice required by G.S. 113A-61.1(a) of our right of periodic inspection to ensure
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
ensure 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.
Your cooperation is appreciated.
Sincerely,
