Building Addition for Shipping Building Expansion
Low Density Stormwater Project
Hertford County
Dear Robert McCracken:
The Washington Regional Office received a complete Stormwater Management Permit
Application for the Building Addition for Shipping Building Expansion project on August 2, 2019.
Staff review of the plans and specifications has determined that the project, as proposed, will
comply with the Stormwater Regulations set forth in Title 15A NCAC 2H.1000. We are forwarding
Permit No. SW7190802 dated August 9, 2019 for the construction of the subject project.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until rescinded and shall be subject to the
conditions and limitations as specified therein, and does not supercede any other agency permit
that may be required. Please pay special attention to the conditions listed in this permit regarding.
the Operation and Maintenance of the SCM(s), recordation of deed restrictions, certification of
the SCM's, procedures for changing ownership, and transferring the permit. Failure to establish
an adequate system for operation and maintenance of the stormwater management system, to
record deed restrictions, to certify the SCM's, to transfer the permit, or to renew the permit, will
result in future compliance problems.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the
right to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following
receipt of this permit. This request must be in the form of a written petition, conforming to Chapter
150E of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative Hearings,
6714 Mail Service Center, Raleigh, NC 27699-6714. Unless such demands are made this permit
shall be final and binding.
Please contact me at [phone] if you have any questions.
Sincerely,
William Carl Dunn, PE
Environmental Engineer

and may or may not be approved.
The permittee is responsible for compliance with all permit conditions until the

transfer of common areas to a third party, such as a homeowner's association,
constitutes an approved transfer of the stormwater permit.

additional or replacement stormwater management systems.

6. The permittee grants permission to DEQ Staff to enter the property during normal
business hours, for the purpose of inspecting all components of the stormwater
management facility.
7. The permit issued shall continue in force and effect until revoked or terminated.
The permit may be modified, revoked and reissued or terminated for cause. The

follow the guidelines established in the North Carolina Erosion and Sediment
Control Planning and Design Manual.
9. Approved plans and specifications for this project are incorporated by reference
and are enforceable parts of the permit.

address changes at least 30 days prior to making such changes.
