RE: Grading Permit #35-20, Sidbury Farms Phase
Dear Mrs. Libby Shelton:
This office has reviewed the erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan to be
acceptable with modifications and hereby issue this land -disturbing permit. Please read the permit
conditions carefully, return the signed blue original to our office and keep the copy for your records A
copy of the enclosed land -disturbing permit must be posted at the job site. This letter gives the notice
required by GS 113A-61.1(a) and New Hanover County's Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance
Article VIII Section 8.21 of our right of periodic inspection to insure compliance with the approved plan.
As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an
electronic Notice of Intent (eN01) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the NCGO10000
Construction General Permit. The COC must be obtained prior to the commencement of any land -
disturbing activity on the above named project, according to State Stormwater requirements. The NOI
form may be accessed at deq.nc.gov/NCG01. Please direct questions about the N01 form to Annette Lucas
at Annette. lucas2ncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at [e-mail]. After you submit a complete and
correct NOI Form, 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. The $100 fee will be charged annually until the
project receives a final land -disturbance inspection. Once the project is stabilized and receives the final
land -disturbance inspection, you should file a Notice of Termination (NOT) with the State to final out the
project.
A copy of the enclosed land -disturbing permit, a copy of the approved erosion and sedimentation
control plan as well as any approved deviations, the NCG01 permit, a copy of the Certificate of Compliance
(COC), records of inspections made during the previous 12 months and a rain gauge must be posted at
the job site as required by 15A NCAC 413.0118(a), the NCGO1 permit, and Article VIII Section 8.19(o).
The land disturbing fee of $25.830 is due to be paid to New Hanover County Engineering, to my
attention, prior to Plat Recordation.

A preconstruction meeting is optional prior to land -disturbing activity on this project. Please
contact me at [phone] if you would like to schedule this meeting in our office. If you choose not to
have a preconstruction meeting, you must contact us with the date the land -disturbing activity will take
place onsite and again once the initial erosion control measures are installed.
New Hanover County's Erosion and Sedimentation Control Program 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 Statutes 113A-51 through 66), and the New Hanover County Erosion and Sedimentation Control
Ordinance Article VIII Section 8.19 (f), this office may require revisions to the plan and its implementation
of the revisions to ensure compliance with the Act and ordinance.
This land -disturbing permit will expire within 1 year following the date of approval, if no land -
disturbing activity has been undertaken, as required by New Hanover County's Erosion and Sedimentation
Control Ordinance Article VIII Section 8.18 (d). If no activity takes place within one year after work has
begun onsite, the permit will expire. Please contact this office to reactivate a permit that has expired.
Acceptance and approval of this erosion control plan is conditioned upon your compliance with
Federal and State water quality laws, regulations and rules and local city or county ordinances or rules.
This land -disturbing permit approval does not supersede any other permits or approvals. You must ensure
you have tree approval PRIOR to any land disturbing activity onsite. It is the owner's responsibility to
have all the permits and approvals that are required, prior to beginning construction.
Please note this approval is based in part on the accuracy of the information provided in the
Financially 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.
Your cooperation is appreciated,

*If soil is brought onto this site or removed from this site, it must come from or be taken to an approved or permitted site,
to be identified to this office rior to being brought onsite or removal from the site.
*All City and/or County and State drainage and stormwater requirements will be adhered to.
*If these measures fail to adequately control erosion, more restrictive measures will be required.

*Enclosed is a Combined Self -Monitoring and Self -Inspection Form that meets the requirements of both the NPDES
Stormwater Permit for Construction Activities, NCG 010000 reporting and the Land Resources Self -Inspection Program
that satisfies the requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act. These are mentioned below with specific
requirements for each program. These reports are the responsibility of the property owner. They require a rain gauge
onsite, inspections and reporting every 7 calendar days and within 24 hours of every 1.0-inch rain per 24-hour period and
at specific phases of construction. Additional copies of this Combined Construction Inspection Report can be found at
httw.1/portal.ncdenr.org/`web/ir/erosion. Reports must be available onsite at all times. If you have questions, please
contact New Hanover County Engineering [phone] or the Land Quality Section at the NC DEMLR Regional office at

*Note the NPDES information from the State for sites disturbing 1 acre or more and the reporting requirements. All NEW
projects permitted after August 3, 2011 must include the following surface water withdrawal locations and stabilization
requirement designations on the plan in order to qualify for coverage under the mast recent NPDES Construction General
Permit. All settling basins must have outlet structures that withdraw water from the surface, with the exception of basins
or traps that have a drainage area of less than 1 acre. The NPDES permit also requires ground cover within 15 calendar days
on disturbed flat areas and ground cover within 7 calendar days on all areas within HQW Zones, perimeter dikes, swales,
ditches, perimeter slopes and all slopes steeper than 3:1. Exceptions include slopes that are 10 feet or less in length and not
steeper than 2:1 which must be stabilized within 14 calendar days and slopes greater than 50 feet which must be stabilized

hours of every 1.0-inch rain event in a 24-hour period. This permit also includes other new requirements which are listed in
the text of the NPDES Stormwater Discharge Permit for Construction Activities, which is included with the original copy of
each land -disturbing permit.
*Note the Land Resources Self Inspection Program Requirements. This program is separate from the NPDES reporting and

erosion control measures, Clearing and Grubbing of existing ground cover, Completion of any phase of grading of slopes
or fills, Installation of storm drainage facilities, Completion of construction or development, Establishment of permanent
ground cover sufficient to restrain erosion and any Deviation from the approved plan.
