Dear Sir:
This is to advise you that the Pitt County Technical Review Committee conditionally approved
the soil erosion and sedimentation control plan for Chicod Landing on November 25, 2020.
Conditions and requirements as a part of this approval are attached below. Copies of the draft
minutes from the meeting will be available upon request prior to the next Technical Review
Committee meeting.
As stipulated on the financial responsibility form, you are responsible for ensuring compliance
with all aspects of the approved plan and the Pitt County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control
Ordinance. Your primary objectives include, but are not limited to, preventing offsite
sedimentation, preventing sediment from entering watercourses, and establishing vegetation on
all disturbed areas within 7-14 calendar days, following any completion of a phase of grading.
As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an
electronic Notice of Intent (NOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the
NCG010000 Construction Stormwater General Permit. This form MUST be submitted prior to
the commencement of any land disturbing activity on the above named project. The NOI form
may be accessed at deAnc.gov/NCG0l. Please direct questions about the NOI form to Annette
Lucas at Annette. Incas(@ncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at Paul.clark ncdenr. ov. After you submit a
complete and correct NOI Form, a COC will be emailed to you within three business days.
Please be aware that your project will be covered by requirements of the NPDES
Construction Stormwater General Permit NCG010000. Please become familiar with all the
requirements and conditions of this permit in order to achieve compliance.
Upon discovery of noncompliance by our office, the following actions may be taken:
1. No further permits for building or other construction will be issued.
2. The authority to continue construction, other than for erosion control measures,
will be terminated.
3. Penalties of up to $5000 per day may begin to accrue. Failure to immediately
comply upon notice of noncompliance will result in injunctive and/or criminal
action.
Other Comments:
4. This erosion control plan shall expire three years following the date of approval if
no land disturbing activity has been undertaken.
5. The Division of Water Quality may pursue legal action against you in order to
enforce requirements of the NPDES, Phase II permit.
6. The Pitt County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance authorizes
County officials to inspect sites to ensure compliance with the Sedimentation
Pollution Control Act.
Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) requires that a copy of the approved erosion control plan be on file
at the job site. 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, 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 insure 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. Land disturbance shall not
begin until a preconstruction meeting has taken place.
A final Certificate of Occupancy will not be issued until the listed conditions have been
addressed.
Please provide a copy of the certificate of coverage prior to beginning any land disturbance.
If you need further information or assistance, please contact me at (252) 902-3250.
Sincerely,
Thomas Shrader

CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS
[Planning]
1. No stormwater BMP's are required due to the nutrient loadings being below the
maximum loading requirements for nitrogen and the attenuation calculations not
showing more than a 10% increase in peak flow volumes from pre to post
development.
2. The stormwater permit shall be valid for a period of two years from the date of
issuance unless a valid building permit has been issued and maintained for the site or
the stormwater permit has been revoked by Pitt County. If after two years the
permitted activity has not begun nor a valid building permit secured, this permit shall
expire.
3. All land purchases and transfers necessary to secure the property for development shall
be completed prior to issuance of this permit.
4. The development of the tract shall proceed in conformity to all plans, design features,
and restrictions submitted as part of the stormwater permit application and kept on file
by the Pitt County Planning Department except that the Pitt County Stormwater
Administrator may approve minor changes, consistent with the approved plan, as
required by field conditions and in accordance with Section 15(G) of the Pitt County
Stormwater Ordinance for Nutrient Control.
5. If any amendments are made to the approved plan, revised stormwater calculations
must be submitted to the Pitt County Planning Department.
6. Show lot sizes on plan. Lots must be 25,000 square feet in size.
7. Mailbox cluster must be within its own parcel and have an approved turnout.
8. Revised plans addressing any remaining Pitt County or NCDOT conditions must be
submitted before a pre -con meeting can be held.

9. Drainage Easements will be required

• An engineered option has been submitted for this plan and is on file.
[General Comments]
Soils located on site include CrB2, LoA, Le, OcB, and Ro, and possess the
following characteristics:
■ Seasonal high water table (CrB2, LoA, Le, OcB, and Ro)
■ Slow Permeability (LoA, CrB2, LE, Ro)
■ Flooding or Ponding (Le, Ro)
■ High shrink -swell potential water (LoA, CrB2, LE, Ro)
■ Unstable for trenching 4 feet or more (Ro)
■ Clayroot Swamp Watershed
■ Soils are prime farmland or have statewide importance for farming.
Development will remove the site from agricultural production.
■ This plan is within the 'h mile VAD Buffer.
■ The adjacent drainage ditches should to be cleaned out to their original
bottom for improved drainage.
■ There are no subsurface drain tile maps on file, but it is possible that
subsurface drain tile could be onsite.
• The following agencies have reviewed the Construction & Erosion Control Plan
for CHICOD LANDING and have no comments:
