Subject: Expiration Date Reminder — Less Than 1 Year
Fast Track Authorization to Construct Permit No. SWA000028
Nesbitt Farms Subdivision — Phase 1
Henderson County
Dear Mr. Taylor:
The Post -Construction Stormwater Fast Tract Authorization to Construct (ATC) Permit SWA000028 for
the subject project expires on August 2, 2023. This is a reminder that if the Fast Track ATC permit
expires, this project is considered out of compliance and disqualified from the fast track permitting
process. Further, North Carolina General Statutes and the Coastal Stormwater rules require sites that
have started construction to remain covered under an active post construction stormwater permit. Failure
to maintain a permit subjects the owner to assessment of civil penalties.
In order to for this site to remain under an active post construction stormwater permit, please proceed with
one of the following options:
Continue under the ATC by either:
a. Completing the project, applying for and receiving the final as -built approval before the
ATC expires. Under this option, please be aware that the permit holder and licensed
professional are assuming liability that the site and project is compliant and final
approval can be given prior to the expiration date.
b. Submitting a permit renewal application along with a $505.00 fee and other submittal
requirements a minimum of 180 days prior to this expiration date per Permit Condition
3.d and 15A NCAC 2H.1045(3). The permit renewal form can be found on the Post -
Construction section of this website deq.nc.gov/SW or directly at
https://deq.nc. gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-and-land-
resources/stormwater/stormwater-pro rg am/post-construction-2.
If completing the project will take longer than an additional 5 years, it is recommended to
consider submitting this project to the standard permitting process to ensure long term
compliance and protection of the surface waters while limiting liability.
Also, it was noted in the review of this file that the required construction commencement form
has not been submitted. If construction has started, please submit a completed construction
commencement form. If construction has not begun, please remember to submit the construction
commencement form at least 48 hours in advance of constructing the project.
2. Apply for and receive a permit through the standard permitting process by submitting for review
a new application package that includes but is not limited to:
a. a new Permit Application Form (SWU-101)
b. a $505.00 fee
c. a completed Supplement-EZ form
d. a recorded or completed O&M-EZ form
e. as -built plans and calculations for any completed SCMs
f. the full or partial designer certifications for any SCMs or project areas that have been
completed (per Permit Condition 3.e)
g. a completed rescission form to be acted upon once the new permit is approved.
The various required forms can be found on the Post -Construction section of the website.
