Subject: SW3190703 - Hemby Place (Rescission)
ON
At the request of the permittee, Classica Homes, the subject post -construction permit is rescinded effective
immediately.
In the future, if you, the property owners, or another interested party wish to develop this site, they must first apply for
and receive a new Stormwater Management Permit. The proposed development must meet the latest stormwater
rules, currently Title 15A NCAC 02H .1000, amended on January 1, 2017 (the 2017 Rules, and the latest standards in the
Stormwater Design Manual. Operation of a stormwater treatment facility, or construction of built -upon surfaces
without a valid Stormwater Permit, will subject the responsible party to a civil penalty of up to $25,000 per day.
The original signed rescission letter is being mailed to the permittee, Bill Saint, at the following address (NOTE: An
electronic version of this permit can be found in our online repository:
https://edocs.deg.nc.gov/WaterResources/Browse.aspx?id=494276&dbid=0&repo=WaterResources):
Classica Homes
Attn: Bill Saint, President/CEO

I received a permit rescission request from the permittee, Classica Homes, today. One of our inspectors will be out at
the site at some point in the near future to verify that construction has not started on -site. If that is the case, I will
rescind the permit and send out a letter confirming that this permit has been rescinded. Once the permit is rescinded, I
will return the minor modification application that we received on 9/20/2021(since a rescinded permit cannot be
modified) and any future development of the site will require a brand new post -construction permit.
Let me know if you have any questions,
-Jim

I received a phone call from a lawyer representing Classica Homes (I did not catch his name) earlier today essentially
asking how Classica Homes, the current permittee, can be removed from the permit for this project. There are two
options to accomplish this goal:
1) The current permittee completes and submits a Permit Rescission Request Form
(https://deg.nc.gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-land-resources/energy-mineral-land-rules/stormwater-
program/post-construction, under the "How to Rescind a Post -Construction Permit" heading). Choosing this
option would require the proposed permittee, Toll Southeast LP Company, Inc., to get a brand new post -
construction permit (as opposed to modifying the current permit since the current permit will be rescinded).
2) Both the current and proposed permittees complete and submit a Permit Transfer Application Form
(https://deg.nc.gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-and-land-resources/stormwater/stormwater-
program/post-construction-program/permit-transfers-renewals, under the "Permit Transfer & Renewal Forms"
heading). Choosing this option would allow the proposed permittee to keep and modify the existing post -
construction permit (SW3190703). As I mentioned in my October 19, 2021 request for additional information

letter, the permit transfer rules were very recently changed and we have not yet had the opportunity to update
this form to be compliant with the new rules.
Let me know if you have any questions about either of these options.
