This approval requires you to follow the conditions listed in the permit below.
CONDITIONS OF PERMIT [15A NCAC 02H .1304(c)]:
1. Stormwater Management: The applicant may provide documentation that the project will not impair
water quality to the receiving stream(s) from stormwater runoff or provide an approved stormwater
management plan. Any high density project and/or project that exceeds density thresholds must
provide a stormwater management plan for the entire project, for review and approval including all
forms and pertinent items that complies with the high density development requirements. Low
density development shall meet all condition for stormwater management required by the state and
be reviewed if required. The plan may be approved by the Division, State Stormwater Program or a
local delegated authority. The plan shall consider the impact of the volume and velocity of discharge
and runoff to the receiving stream and adjacent riparian areas to prevent scouring and erosions of
the features. Citation: 15A NCAC 02U .1017, 15A NAC 02H .1003 (2)(a), 15 NCAC 02B .0614 (8), 15A
NCAC 02B .0607(h)
Justification: In order to protect against impairment of water quality standards and best usage of
receiving and downstream waters, water quality based management practices must be employed to
protect against direct or indirect discharge of waste or other sources of water pollution. Surface water
quality standards require that conditions of waters be suitable for all best uses provided for in state
rule (including, at minimum: aquatic life propagation, survival, and maintenance of biological
integrity, wildlife, secondary contact recreation, agriculture) and that activities must not cause water
pollution that precludes any best use on a short-term or long-term basis. In determining that the
proposed activity will comply with state water quality standards (including designated uses, numeric
criteria, narrative criteria and the state's antidegradation policy), the Division must evaluate if the
activity has avoided and minimized impacts to waters, would cause or contribute to a violation of
standards, or would result in secondary or cumulative impacts.
2. Diversion Ditches and other storm water conveyances as related to the sediment and erosion control
measures shall be matted and/or stabilized to reduce sediment loss and turbidity. This includes

interior/exterior slopes of sediment basins. Citation: 15A NCAC 02H .0506 (b)(3) and (c)(3)
Justification: Failure to reduce erosion of runoff conveyances and to provide for maximum reduction
of erosion on areas not related to ongoing construction, shortens basin holding times, increases
turbidity of discharge and creates a greater potential of bypass discharge.
3. Bare/fill slopes in excess of 10 feet in height and within 30 feet of surface waters shall be matted.
Citation: 15A NCAC 02H .0506 (b)(1) and 15A NCAC 02H .502 (c)
Justification: A project that affects waters shall not be permitted unless the existing uses, and the
water quality to protect such uses, are protected. In determining that the proposed activity will
comply with state water quality standards (including designated uses, numeric criteria, narrative
criteria and the state's antidegradation policy), the Division must evaluate if the activity has avoided
and minimized impacts to waters, would cause or contribute to a violation of standards or would
result in secondary or cumulative impacts
4. The construction of the new sewer line in/through undeveloped area may result/encourage
development along the construction corridor. Development of these parcels may impact additional
waters and cause violations of downstream water quality standards. The secondary/cumulative
impacts associated with this project must be adequately addressed by the applicant for any
development/project defined in 15A NCAC 02H.1003) associated with this sewer system. Any storm
water facilities, at minimum, must be designed to meet state guidelines or document that the project
will not impact water quality. Citation: 15A NCAC 02H .0506(b)(1)
Justification: In order to protect against impairment of water quality standards and best usage of
receiving and downstream waters, water quality based management practices must be employed to
protect against direct or indirect discharge of waste or other sources of water pollution. In
determining that the proposed activity will comply with state water quality standards (including
designated uses, numeric criteria, narrative criteria and the state's antidegradation policy), the
Division must evaluate lithe activity has avoided and minimized impacts to waters, would cause or
contribute to a violation of standards or would result in secondary or cumulative impacts.
5. The plans and specifications for the project are incorporated into the Permit by reference and are an
enforceable part of the Permit. Any modifications to the project requires notification to the Division
and may require submittal of an application for a modification to the Division with the appropriate
fee. Citation: 15A NCAC 02H .1301; 15A NCAC 02H .1302
6. If this Permit is used to access residential, commercial or industrial building sites, then all parcels
owned by the permittee that are part of the single and complete project authorized by this Permit
must be buildable without additional impacts to streams or wetlands. Citation: 15A NCAC
02H .1302(a); 15A NCAC 02H .1305(b); 15A NCAC 02H .1304(c)
7. For road construction purposes, this Permit shall only be utilized from natural high ground to natural
high ground. Citation: 15A NCAC 02H .1302(a); 15A NCAC 02H .1305(b); 15A NCAC 02H .1304(c)
S. Deed notifications or similar mechanisms shall be placed on all lots/parcels with retained wetlands,
waters, and state regulated riparian buffers within the project boundaries in order to assure
compliance with NC Water Quality Certification Rules (15A NCAC 02H .0500), NC Isolated Wetland
Rules (15A NCAC 02H .1300), Federally Non -Jurisdictional Wetland Rules (15A NCAC 02H .1400) and/or
