Dear Sir:
JAMES F. RHODES, AICP
Assistant County Manager for
Planning and Environment
This is to advise you that the Pitt County Technical Review Committee conditionally approved
the soil erosion and sedimentation control plan for Colonial Materials on February 8, 2023, and
hereby issue this Certificate of Conditional Approval. Conditions and requirements as a part of
this approval are attached below. Copies of the draft minutes from the meeting will be available
upon request prior to the next Technical Review Committee meeting.
As stipulated on the financial responsibility form, you are responsible for ensuring compliance
with all aspects of the approved plan and the Pitt County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control
Ordinance. Your primary objectives include, but are not limited to, preventing offsite
sedimentation, preventing sediment from entering watercourses, and establishing vegetation on
all disturbed areas within 7-14 calendar days, following any completion of a phase of grading.
As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an
electronic Notice of Intent (NOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the
NCGO10000 Construction Stormwater General Permit. This form MUST be submitted prior to
the commencement of any land disturbing activity on the above named project. The NOI form
may be accessed at deg.nc. rov/NCGO1. Please direct questions about the NOI form to Annette
Lucas at Annette.lucas(Wncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at Paul. clark(d,=denr.y. After you submit a
complete and correct NOI Form, a COC will be emailed to you within three business days.
Please be aware that your project will be covered by requirements of the NPDES
Construction Stormwater General Permit NCGO10000. Please become familiar with all the
requirements and conditions of this permit in order to achieve compliance.
Upon discovery of noncompliance by our office, the following actions may be taken:
1. No further permits for building or other construction will be issued.
2. The authority to continue construction, other than for erosion control measures,
will be terminated.
3. Penalties of up to $5000 per day may begin to accrue. Failure to immediately
comply upon notice of noncompliance will result in injunctive and/or criminal
action.
Other Comments:
4. This erosion control plan shall expire three years following the date of approval if
no land disturbing activity has been undertaken.
5. The Division of Water Quality may pursue legal action against you in order to
enforce requirements of the NPDES, Phase II permit.
6. The Pitt County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance authorizes
County officials to inspect sites to ensure compliance with the Sedimentation
Pollution Control Act.
Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) requires that a copy of the approved erosion control plan be on file
at the job site. 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 Act is performance -oriented, requiring
protection of existing natural resources and adjoining properties. If, following the
commencement of this project, 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 insure 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. You are requested to file an amended form
if there is any change in the information included on the form. Land disturbance shall not
begin until a preconstruction meeting has taken place. An updated approval letter will be
sent once the revised plans have been submitted and reviewed.
Please provide a copy of the certificate of coverage prior to beginning any land disturbance.
If you need further information or assistance, please contact me at (252) 902-3250.
Sincerely,
Z� '900�

CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS
[Planning]
1. A payment to a private mitigation bank or the Environmental Enhancement Program (EEP) is
required to meet the nitrogen loading requirements of the Pitt County Stormwater Ordinance.
This payment must be made prior to approval of the plan. This payment has been made, but
County staff are waiting on the corrected form.
2. A check dam may be needed at Taylor's Creek Drive if erosion occurs.
3. Pipe size under entrance and any FES should be labeled.
4. Show easements on the plan.
[Environmental Health]
5. There is an active septic permit (17694-01) for lot 37. Upon inspection of the property it was
found that the gravel parking area had already been constructed and was in use. The gravel area
extended over the permitted septic area. A ditch that appears to have been enlarged runs along
the left side of the property also encroaches on the septic areas. Environmental Health has issued
an intent to revoke for this permit. This is a 30-day process if the owners do not contest the
revocation. The owners have voluntarily relinquished the permit to provide resolution to the
issue.
[General Comments]
[Planning]
• Soils located on site include By, Ly, and Ra per the Pitt County Soil Survey,
Sheets 40 & 48.
Green Mill Run Watershed
The adjacent drainage laterals should be cleaned out to their original
bottom for improved drainage.
There are no records of subsurface drain tile on file, but it is possible for
some to be onsite.
