Subject: State Stormwater Management Permit No. SW8 960818 Renewal
Jungle Rapids
High Density Commercial Project
New Hanover County
Dear Mr. Rippy:
Dee Freeman
Secretary
The Wilmington Regional Office received a complete Stormwater Management Permit
Application for Jungle Rapids on March 31, 2009. 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. We are forwarding Permit No. SW8 960818, dated May 15,
2009, for the construction of the subject project.
This permit shall be effective from the date of issuance until November 19, 2019, and shall be
subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein. 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.
The renewal of this stormwater permit does not imply that the site is currently in compliance with
the terms and conditions of this state stormwater permit. A plan of action to correct the
deficiencies noted in the May 7, 2009 Notice of Inspection will need to be submitted to the
Division of Water Quality by June 15, 2009. Failure to provide the requested plan of action may
initiate enforcement action. The plans previously approved on November 19, 1999 remain in full
force and effect.
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 150B of the North Carolina General Statutes, and filed with the Office of Administrative
Hearings, P.O. Drawer 27447, Raleigh, NC 27611-7447. 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
David Cox, or me at [phone].
Sinrely,
