Low Density Stormwater Project

Dear Ms. McKenzie -Veal:
The Washington Regional Office received a Stormwater Management Permit
Application for name change for the subject project on March 27, 2019. Staff review of
the application has determined that the permit can be reissued. We are forwarding
Permit No. SW7970717 dated May 6, 2019, for the continued operation of the subject
project.
This permit, upon its effective date, will replace all previous State Stormwater permits for
this 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 This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until rescinded and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 Operation and Maintenance requirements in this permit. Failure to establish an
adequate system for operation and maintenance of the stormwater management system
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.
If you have any questions, or need additional information concerning this matter, please
contact me at [phone].
Sincerely,
Roger K. Thorpe
