County: Craven
City: New Bern
Address: Waterscape Way
River Basin: Neuse
Date Received by LQS: October 27, 2022
Submitted By: Ark Consulting Group, PLLC
Plan Type: New / Express
Dear Madam,
Acres Approved: 1.3
This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan to
be acceptable with modifications and hereby issue this letter of Approval with Modifications. The
Modifications Required for Approval are listed on the attached page. This plan approval shall
expire three (3) years following the date of approval, if no land -disturbing activity has been
undertaken, as is required by Title 15A NCAC 4B .0129.
As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an
electronic Notice of Intent (eNOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the
NCGO10000 Construction General Permit. After the form is reviewed and found to be complete,
you will receive a link with payment instructions for the $100 annual permit fee. After the fee
is processed, you will receive the COC via email. As the Financially Responsible Party shown on
the FRO form submitted for this project, you MUST obtain the COC prior to commencement of
any land disturbing activity. The eNOI form may be accessed at deq.nc.gov/NCGOI. Please
direct questions about the eNOI form to the Stormwater Program staff in the Raleigh central
office. If the owner/operator of this project changes in the future, the new responsible party must
obtain a new COC.
Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) and the NCGOI permit require that the following documentation
be kept on file at the job site:
North Carolina Department of Environmental Quality I Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources

1. The approved E&SC plan as well as any approved deviation.
2. The NCGOI permit and the COC, once it is received.
3. Records of inspections made during the previous 12 months.
Also, this letter gives the notice required by G.S. 113A-61.1(a) of our right of periodic inspection
to insure compliance with the approved plan.
North Carolina's Sedimentation Pollution 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
Statute 113A-51 through 66), this office may require revisions to the plan and implementation of
the revisions to ensure compliance with the Act.
Acceptance and approval of this plan is conditioned upon your compliance with Federal and State
water quality laws, regulations, and rules. In addition, local city or county ordinances or rules may
also apply to this land -disturbing activity. This approval does not supersede any other permit or
approval.
Please note that this approval is based in part on the accuracy of the information provided in the
Financial Responsibility Form, which you provided. This permit allows for a land -disturbance, as
called for on the application plan, not to exceed the approved acres. Exceeding the acreage will
be a violation of this permit and would require a revised plan and additional application fee. You
are requested to file an amended form if there is any change in the information included on the
form. In addition, it would be helpful if you notify this office of the proposed starting date for this
project.
Please be advised that a rule to protect and maintain existing buffers along watercourses in the
Neuse River Basin became effective on July 22, 1997. The Neuse River Riparian Area Protection
and Maintenance Rule (15A NCAC 213 .0714) applies to the 50-foot wide zone directly adjacent
to surface waters (intermittent streams, perennial streams, lakes, ponds, and estuaries) in the Neuse
River Basin. For more information about this riparian area rule, please contact the Division of
Water Resources Wetland1401 Unit at 919-807-6300, or DWR in our regional office at 252-946-
6481.

1. The developer is responsible for the control of sediment on -site. If the approved erosion
and sedimentation control measures prove insufficient, the developer must take those
additional steps necessary to stop sediment from leaving this site (NCGS 113A-57(3)).
Each sediment storage device must be inspected after each storm event (NCGS 113A-
54.1(e)). Maintenance and/or clean out is necessary anytime the device is at 50% capacity.
All sediment storage measures will remain on site and functional until all grading and final
landscaping of the project is complete (15A NCAC 04B .0113).
2. The developer is responsible for obtaining all permits and approvals necessary for the
development of this project prior to the commencement of this land disturbing activity.
This could include our agency's Stormwater regulations and the Division of Water
Resources' enforcement requirements within Section 401 of the Clean Water Act, the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers' jurisdiction of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act, the Division
of Coastal Management's CAMA requirements, the Division of Solid Waste
Management's landfill regulations, the Environmental Protection Agency and/or The U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers jurisdiction of the Clean Water Act, local County or
Municipalities' ordinances, or others that may be required. This approval cannot supersede
any other permit or approval.
3. Adequate and appropriate measures must be properly installed downstream, within the
limits of disturbance, of any land disturbing activity to prevent sediment from leaving the
limits of disturbance, entering existing drainage systems, impacting an on -site natural
watercourse or adjoining property. (NCGS I I3A-57)
