Dear Mr. Sherrill,
This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan
to be acceptable and hereby issue this Letter of Approval. This approval shall become null and
void if you have not made progress on the site within six months after the date of approval. A
one-time six month extension can be granted for good cause shown upon receiving a written
request from you before the expiration of the approved plan. This letter of approval is being
issued prior to the issuance of the stormwater permit due to concurrent reviews, but any land
disturbing activity associated with this project shall not begin prior to issuance off all
required permits including the stormwater permit and the land disturbing permit.
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
NCG010000 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/NCGO1. Please direct questions about the eNOI form to Annette Lucas at
Annette. lucas(a�ncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at Paul. clark(&ncdenr.gov. If the owner/operator of
this project changes in the future, the new responsible parry 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. 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 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. You are requested to file an amended
form if there is any change in the information included on the form. The Land Disturbing
Permit must be posted at the job site. 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,
W. Jason Guess
Erosion Control Officer
