Subject: State Stormwater Management Permit No. SW5210602
Phobos Solar, LLC — Phase I
Low Density Project
Nash County
Dear Mr. Catt and Mr. Draper:
The Central DEQ Office received a complete, State Stormwater Management Permit Application for the
subject project on August 24, 2021. 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
effective January 1, 2017. We are forwarding Permit No. SW5210602 dated September 7, 2021, for the
construction, operation and maintenance of the stormwater control measures (SCMs), built -upon areas, as well
as the stormwater collection system and/or vegetated conveyance system associated with 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This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until rescinded and shall be subject to the conditions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 supersede any other agency permit that may be required. The
designated permit holder, Pine Gate Renewables ("Lessee"), shall be responsible for meeting the conditions
and limitations specified therein. As required for compliance, a copy of the lease agreement that outlines the
responsibilities of the Lessee must be kept with the permit and maintenance activity records. Please pay
special attention to the permit conditions regarding the limitation of built -upon area, modification of the
project, the operation and maintenance of the vegetated conveyance system, and the procedures for changing
ownership of and/or transferring the permit. Please also pay attention to the permit conditions that requires the
recordation of deed restrictions and protective covenants, easements, and the maintenance agreement, which
must all be provided along with certification upon completion of the project. Failure to comply with these
requirements will result in future compliance problems.
Please be aware that it is the responsibility of the permit holder, the Lessee, to notify the Division of any changes
in ownership and request an ownership/name change for the stormwater permit. However, if the lease agreement
or contract between the Lessee and Draper Family Partnership ("Property Owner") is dissolved, cancelled or
defaults, and the Division is not notified by the Lessee to transfer the permit, then the responsibility for permit
compliance reverts to the Property Owner. A complete transfer request must be submitted to the Division within
30 days as described below otherwise the Property Owner will be operating a stormwater treatment facility
without a valid permit which is a violation of NC General Statue 143-215.1. Failure to transfer the permit may
result in appropriate enforcement action in accordance with North Carolina General Statute §143-215.6A
through § 143-215.6C being taken against the Property Owner.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to
request an adjudicatory hearing by filing a written petition with the Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH).
The written petition must conform to Chapter 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes and must be filed
with the OAH within thirty (30) days of receipt of this permit. You should contact the OAH with all questions
regarding the filing fee (if a filing fee is required) and/or the details of the filing process at 6714 Mail Service

PERMISSION IS HEREBY GRANTED TO
Pine Gate Renewables
Phobos Solar, LLC — Phase /
Prophecy Road, Middlesex, Nash County
FOR THE
construction, operation and maintenance of a 24% low density project in compliance with the
provisions of Title 15A NCAC 2H .1000 effective January 1, 2017 (the "stormwater rules") and the
approved stormwater management plans, application, supplement(s), specifications, and other
supporting data (the "approved plans and specifications") as attached and/or on file with and
approved by the Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (the "Division" or "DEMLR") and
considered an enforceable part of this permit.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until rescinded and shall be subject to the
following specified conditions and limitations:
I. DESIGN STANDARDS
This permit is effective only with respect to the management of stormwater described in the
approved plans and specifications. The overall percent of built -upon area (BUA) permitted for
the project must not exceed 24% per the requirements of the stormwater rules. This permit
covers the construction of a total of 114,411 square feet of BUA. This permit does not provide
any allocation of built -upon area for future development.
2. A 50-foot wide vegetative setback must be provided and maintained adjacent to all surface
waters, measured horizontally from the normal pool elevation of impounded structures, from the
top of bank of each side of streams or rivers, and from the mean high waterline of tidal waters,
perpendicular to the shoreline in accordance with the stormwater rules and the approved plans
and specifications. All stormwater runoff, including roof drains, shall be released as dispersed
flow no closer than at the edge of the vegetated setback. At no time shall stormwater runoff be
piped into or through the setback. BUA may not be added to the vegetated setback except as
shown on the approved plans.
Page 1 of 4

State Stormwater Management
Permit No. SW5210602
3. This project has maximized dispersed flow of stormwater runoff through vegetated areas and
minimized the channelization of flow. Stormwater runoff that could not be released as dispersed
flow may be transported by vegetated conveyances with minimum side slopes of 3:1 (H:V)
designed to not erode during the peak flow from the 10-year storm event as defined in the
stormwater rules and approved by the Division.
4. No piping shall be allowed except those minimum amounts necessary to direct stormwater
runoff beneath a BUA such as a road or driveway when it cannot be avoided.
5. The peak flow from the 10-year storm event shall not cause erosion downslope of the
stormwater outlet discharge point.
6. In order for the solar panels to be considered a pervious surface, all of the recommendations of
Chapter E-4 of the Stormwater Design Manual must be met. This project will provide a minimum
disconnection length between each row of panels equal to the width of each panel row.
II. SCHEDULE OF COMPLIANCE
