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 NCGO 10000, 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 may
be accessed at deq.nc.gov/NCGOI. Please direct questions about the eNOI form to Annette Lucas at
Annette lucaskncdennizov or Paul Clark at Paul clark a 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.

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.
Your cooperation is appreciated.
cer ly,
Christopher Graybeal
