A preconstruction meeting is optional prior to land -disturbing activity on this project. Please
contact me at (910) 798-7139 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 (9, this office may require revisions to the plan and its implementation

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 the New Hanover County 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. 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 required to file an amended form if there is
any change in the information included on the form.
Your cooperation is appreciated,
