Construction staff have indicated the work will not be completed before next April, so I am applying for the permit
renewal. Wanted to give you heads-up. I will be doing this via on-line PCN as required by DWR and will include a cover
letter.
Thanks
Dave

Thanks for the explanation. I just want to make sure that individual water impact sites are not remaining open for
extended lengths of time. As long as the contractors are starting a site, completing the work and then closing it out, and
the issue is spreading out when each site is started and completed vs spreading out the time it takes to complete each
site, then I'm ok with the work exceeding permitting timeline thresholds and reissuing a new permit.
I appreciate that you are trying to stay ahead of this. Whenever you want to request the permit reissue is fine with me.

Work began about month ago and I believe they are doing some stream relocation work right now. I believe the
contract was let in December-ish. It is about 4 miles long, so yeah, it is not huge, but still pretty large. Due to staging
and traffic shifts on the large projects that I have seen, contractors have not been able to knock-out all stream work
upfront. Instead they may do say half of the crossing and other stream work initially, then concentrate on road work,
and then come back the next year and finish remaining culverts, or something like that. I don't know the contract time
off-hand, but I am guessing they have at least a couple years on completing construction.
So, I apologize, I should not have said certainly, but rather likely. My plan with the 1-year"grace" period is to wait till
much later this year to see if they actually would not get done, as I am guessing,then reapply if needed. Would that be
okay? Sorry, not trying to create more work,just trying to make sure I do not miss anything.
Thanks
Dave

Dave,
Just to follow up on this, why won't it be done in the next year. its not a huge permit or a huge stretch of road
corridor. Has any work already began? If construction in waters has already started, we certainly wouldn't want to see
construction in the waters drawing out for over a year.

Dave,
I checked into this and unfortunately you will have to resubmit the information to the Division with the fee. If Crystal
gives you a grace period then you wouldn't need to apply until that time is over. Feel free to contact me if you have
questions.

Just a cover letter providing the information that NCDOT doesn't expect the project construction to be complete and
why, and stating that there are no changes to the information provided in PCN and requesting a new authorization
works for me.

Folks,
While they are working steadily, we are fairly certain that the impacts for this project cannot be completed by next year
around this time. So, can you please provide some guidance on how and when we should go about the
renewal? Should we resubmit all the information, which has not changed, via on-line PCN? Or do this via email with an
updated permit narrative only?
I see too that this would now be a GP50 I believe as GP31 will only cover going forward merger projects?
Thanks for guidance.
