Mr. Evans,
Attached hereto is a copy of Permit No. IWP000008 issued to Eric Evans and Edgecombe County, dated

package with the appropriate fee. If the property is sold, the new owner must be given a copy of this
Permit and is responsible for complying with all conditions. [15A NCAC 02H .1304(d)(2)].
This Water Quality Permit does not relieve the permittee of the responsibility to obtain all other
required Federal, State, or Local approvals before proceeding with the project, including those required
by, but not limited to, Sediment and Erosion Control, Non -Discharge, Water Supply Watershed, and
Trout Buffer regulations.
This Water Quality Permit neither grants nor affirms any property right, license, or privilege in any lands
or waters, or any right of use in any waters. This Water Quality Permit does not authorize any person to
interfere with the riparian rights, littoral rights, or water use rights of any other person and does not
create any prescriptive right or any right of priority regarding any usage of water. This Water Quality
Permit shall not be interposed as a defense in any action respecting the determination of riparian or
littoral rights or other rights to water use. No consumptive user is deemed by virtue of this Water
Quality Permit to possess any prescriptive or other right of priority with respect to any other
consumptive user regardless of the quantity of the withdrawal or the date on which the withdrawal was
initiated or expanded.
Upon the presentation of proper credentials, the Division may inspect the property.
This Water Quality Permit shall expire five (5) years from the date of this letter. The conditions shall
remain in effect for the life of the project, regardless of the expiration date of this Water Quality Permit.
