Submitted By: Nathan Hymiller, PLS
Date Received by LQS: May 11, 2020
Plan Type: New
Dear Ms. Bowman,
The subject erosion and sedimentation control plan has been approved by default. The Sedimentation
Pollution Control Act (hereinafter "Act") states that this plan must be filed a minimum of 30 days (15 days
for revised plans) prior to the activity and the approving authority must approve or disapprove the submitted
plan within 30 days (15 days for revised plans) of receipt of G.S. I I3A-54.1. The Act further states that if
the approving authority fails to approve or disapprove the submitted plan within the 30-day (15 days for
revised plans) period, the plan will be deemed approved. The Modifications Required for Approval are
listed on the attached page. 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 (eNOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the NCGO10000 Construction
General Permit. After the form is reviewed and found to be complete, you will receive a link with payment
instructions for the $100 annual permit fee. After the fee is received, you will receive the COC via
email. You MUST obtain the COC prior to commencement of any land disturbing activity. The eNOI
form maybe accessed at decnc.s?ov/NCG01. Please direct questions about the eNOI form to Annette Lucas
at Annette.Lucas ncdenr. ov or Paul Clark at Paul.Clark(&ncdenr.gov. If the owner/operator of this
project changes in the future, the new responsible party is required to apply for his/her own COC.
Title 15A NCAC 4B .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. 1 13A-61.1(a) of our right of periodic inspection to insure
compliance with the approved plan.
Title 15A NCAC 413.011 S(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 l 13A-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,
Assistant Regional Engineer
