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

to the plan and implementation of the revisions to ensure compliance with the Act.

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

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.
Sincerely,
Assistant Regional Engineer
