We are following up on this Construction Stormwater permit status. We need the original legally responsible individual
(Mick El-Massri) to submit the NOT request and upload the attached closeout documentation and completed NOT
certification form. The permit will be easily concluded. Otherwise billing will continue for this permit, and Mr. El-Massri
remains responsible. I have attached all the documents necessary to make this process as easy as possible! It only takes
a few minutes to make the submittal with the uploads.
The NOT request form is here: https://edocs.deg.nc.gov/Forms/NCG01-Termination

Thank you, Jon.
To date I do not see that an NOT request for this one has been submitted. Mick — please be sure to submit that so the
permit can be closed out of your responsibility. I have included the close out documentation.
Thank you!

Subject: Re: Notice of Deficiency: Unpaid Permit Fee for NCC202290 - Close-out Guidance
This project still has an open NPDES construction stormwater permit, and that fee is outstanding. If the project has been
closed out, the responsible entity on the permit needs to submit a Notice of Termination request with close-out
documentation from the authority who approved the E&SC plan (Charlotte/Mecklenburg County):
https://edocs.deg.nc.gov/Forms/NCGOI-Termination

Normally we would require that someone with Lakeside Builders I, LLC submit this request and sign the certification
form because that's who the permittee was. If Mick can take care of that, it will be more straightforward, since his
company held the permit. He really should be the one to terminate the permit.
However, if that is not possible, we will have to figure out an alternative way to close this. If Lakeside Builders I, LLC is
no longer affiliated with the project, and the Financial Responsible Owner (FRO) for the E&SC Plan changed to someone
else (or, if it was someone else originally — we did not require FRO forms when this COC was issued, but now we make
sure the permittee is consistent with who is listed on the FRO to avoid this scenario) — maybe provide a copy of the FRO
from Charlotte to document it and have someone with the same organization on the FRO (who was responsible for the
E&SC plan) fill out the NOT request. That person will need to upload close-out documentation and an NOT certification
form (you'll see that linked on the form above). In addition, I recommend uploading the FRO form associated with the
E&SC plan for the project if it's not going to match Lakeside Builders I, LLC / Mick El-Massri so our reviewer can
reference that.

Mick,
You are still listed as the legally responsible person for this permit. If there is a new person with the
same entity responsible now, we can do a change in legally responsible person.
However, we cannot do a change in ownership. If there has been a change of ownership to a new
company/responsible entity (no longer Lakeside Builders I, LLC), that new entity needs to obtain a new
COC for the project (if construction continues), and you need to terminate this one with an NOT request
(you'll need to provide their permit number). Please advise.
