Infiltration Basin Operation and Maintenance Agreement
I will keep a maintenance record on this BMP. This maintenance record will be kept in a
log in a known set location. Any deficient BMP elements noted in the inspection will be
corrected, repaired or replaced immediately. These deficiencies can affect the integrity
of structures, safety of the public, and the removal efficiency of the BMP.
Important maintenance procedures:
— The drainage area will be carefully managed to reduce the sediment load to the
infiltration basin.
— Immediately after the infiltration basin is established, the vegetation will be
watered twice weekly if needed until the plants become established (commonly
six weeks).
— No portion of the infiltration basin will be fertilized after the initial fertilization
that is required to establish the vegetation.
— The vegetation in and around the basin will be maintained at a height of
approximately six inches.
After the infiltration basin is established, it will be inspected once a quarter and within
24 hours after every storm event greater than 1.0 inches (or 1.5 inches if in a Coastal
County). Records of operation and maintenance will be kept in a known set location
and will be available upon request.
Inspection activities shall be performed as follows. Any problems that are found shall
be repaired immediately.

limitations otherwise imposed by law), and the costs of
administration of my estate be paid all or partly out of the
income, or all or partly out of the principal of my estate, as my
Executrix, in her sole discretion shall determine.
ARTICLE II.
I devise and bequeath all of my property, of whatsoever
nature, and wheresoever situated (excluding any property over

not to exercise any such power), to my wife, BRENDA H. TOWLES, in
fee simple, absolutely, if she survives me.

the persons in possession thereof or benefitted thereby, as to
the federal estate tax and the North Carolina estate tax as

the value of all property subject to such tax, as finally
determined in the respective tax proceedings relating to my
estate.
ARTICLE VII.
I appoint my wife, BRENDA H. TOWLES, to be the Executrix of
this will. If my said wife shall fail or cease to serve as
Executrix, then I appoint my son, EVERETTE BROWN TOWLES, as

property forming part of my estate or of any such trust or
otherwise in her or its possession hereunder, all powers
conferred by law upon Executors and Trustees, or expressed in
this will, and I intend that the powers so granted be construed
in the broadest possible manner. Subject to North Carolina
General Statutes Section 32-26, I further confer upon my
Executrix and Trustee (including any successor personal
representative(s) or Trustee(s)) all the powers set forth in
North Carolina General Statutes Section 32-27 which are hereby
incorporated by reference as they exist at the time of my
execution of this will except for General Statutes Section 32-
27(29) which is expressly not incorporated herein. In addition,
my Executrix and Trustee (including any successor personal
representative(s) or Trustae(s)) shall also have the powers,
authority and discretion hereinafter set forth:
(1) PROPERTY DESCRIPTIONS: To determine what property is
covered by general descriptions contained in this will.
(2) REAL PROPERTY: To take possession, custody or control of
any real property in my estate without court approval
and without notification to any beneficiary of my
estate or any trusts hereunder; and to sell, lease, or
mortgage any real property, by public or private sale,
at such time and upon such terms and conditions as my
Executrix may deem best, all without the necessity of
obtaining the approval or authorization of any court,
whether title to such property is vested in my
Executrix. My Executrix' determination that it is in
the best interest of the administration of my estate to
apply the resulting proceeds from any sale, lease, or
mortgage of such property to the payment of debts and
other claims against my estate, and her determination
that possession, custody or control of such property is
in the best interest of the administration of the
estate shall be binding and conclusive on all persons
taking hereunder.
(3) FACILITY OF PAYMENTS: To apply for the benefit of or for
the use of any beneficiary hereunder, any property
(whether principal or income) vesting in or payable to
such beneficiary, without seeing to the application of
the payments so made and for which the receipt of the
payee shall constitute a full acquittance of my
Executrix or Trustee.
(4) HOLDBACK TRUSTS: To withhold distribution of any
property, whether principal or income, vesting pursuant
`c tPa provisions; of this will in a beneficiary whG is
then under thirty (30) years of age, and if this power
is exercised, the continuing power to hold such
property in trust for the beneficiary, to pay to or
apply for the use or benefit of the beneficiary any of
such property, whether principal or income, or deliver
the same to the beneficiary, or to a guardian or
custodian of the beneficiary under a gifts or transfers
to minors act, including a custodian selected by my
Executor or Trustee (who may make any permissible age
election for termination of the custodianship), or.to a
parent of the beneficiary, or to a person with whom the
beneficiary resides, or to any person authorized by
this will to hold property under a power during
minority, all at such times and in such amounts as my
�I I_ .._11 IJI.:.
GValC i1s�
Executor or Trustee shall deem requisite or desirable,
and to accumulate and add to trust principal all
current income not so applied, until the beneficiary
reaches thirty (30) years of age, or shall sooner die,
whereupon the property then remaining in the trust
shall be distributed to the beneficiary or to the
personal representative of such beneficiary's estate,
as the case may be.
($) ELIMINATION OF SMALL TRUSTS: To terminate or not establish
any trust created or to be created under this will
whenever my Trustee determines it would be contrary to
the best interests of the beneficiaries by reason of
legislation, unforeseen changes or circumstances, or
the smallness of the amount of property held or to be
held in such trust, to create or continue such a trust,
in which event the property then constituting or
receivable by such trust shall be distributed to the
beneficiaries then entitled to the income of such
trust. If the beneficiaries of such income depend upon
the exercise of my Trustee's discretion, then my
Executor or Trustee, as the case may be, shall
distribute such property among those beneficiaries and
in such proportions as my Trustee, in its sole
discretion, shall determine, and its determination
shall be binding and conclusive upon all interested
persons.
(6) TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN RELATED ENTITIES: To sell assets of my
estate or any trust created under this will to the
beneficiaries thereof, to any member of my family or CC

other trust or estate or the beneficiaries thereof for

fair market value thereof; and, to the extent allowed
by law, to lend money to such other trusts or estates,
the beneficiaries thereof or any member of my family at
rates of interest and upon security determined by my
Executrix or Trustee to be adequate; providing any of
myself, my spouse, my son, or my son's descendants are
the respective grantors or decedents of such other
trusts or estates.
(7) DIRECT DISTRIBUTIONS TO TRUST BENEFICIARIES: To make
distributions directly from my estate to the
beneficiaries of any trust established under this will;
provided that the Trustee of any such trust would be
authorized or directed to make distributions to the
beneficiaries.
(8) MERGER OF TRUSTS: To merge the assets of any trust
created under this will with those of any other trust,
by whomsoever cheated, maintained for the same
beneficiaries upon substantially the same terms (even
though the component trusts differ as to contingent
beneficiaries, in which case, if the contingency
occurs, the funds may be distributed in such shares as
my Trustee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary to
create a fair ratio between the various sets of
remaindermen); provided, however, that property which
would otherwise remain exempt from generation -skipping
taxes shall not be merged with any other trust.
(9) WITHHOLDING FOR TAx.ES: To withhold distribution of an
amount of property sufficient, in its judgment, to
cover any liability that may be imposed on the Trustee
for estate or other taxes until such liability is
finally determined and paid.

Custodial Trust Act, to make irrevocable transfers of
-
Llrr- i. t I 15L;

(11) PROVISION REGARDING HOLDING AND MANAGEMENT OF REAL PROPERTY:
(a) To deal with matters involving the actual or
threatened contamination of property held in my
estate or in any trust created under this will
(including any interests in sole proprietorships,
partnerships or corporations and any assets owned
by such business enterprises) by hazardous
substances, or involving compliance with
environmental laws. In particular, my Executrix
or Trustee is empowered:
(i) To inspect estate or trust property
periodically, as she or it deem necessary, to
determine compliance with any environmental
law affecting such property, with all
expenses of such inspection and monitoring to
be paid from the income or principal of the
trust or estate;
(ii) To respond (or take any other action
necessary to prevent, abate, or "clean up"),
as she or it shall deem necessary, prior to
or after the initiation of enforcement action
by any governmental body, to any actual or
threatened violation of any environmental law
affecting any such property, the cost of
which shall be payable from trust or estate
assets;
(iii) To settle or compromise at any time any claim
against my estate or trust related to any
such matter asserted by any governmental body
or private party;
(iv) To disclaim any power which my Executrix or
Trustee determines may cause her or it to
incur personal liability as a result of any
such matter, whether such power is set forth
in this will, incorporated by reference
herein, or granted or implied by any statute
or rule of law;
(v) To decline to serve as fiduciary hereunder
or, having undertaken to serve, resign at any
time my Executrix or Trustee reasonably
believes there is or may be a conflict of
interest between her or it in her or its
fiduciary and individual capacities by virtue
of potential claims or liabilities which are
or might be asserted against my estate or
trust because of the type or condition of
trust or estate assets.
(b) My Executrix or Trustee shall not be personally
liable to any beneficiary or other party
interested in any estate or trust, or to any third
parties, for any claim against my estate or trust
for the diminution in value of estate or trust
property resulting from such matters, including
any reporting of or response to (1) the
contamination of estate or trust property by
hazardous substances, or (2) violations of any
environmental laws related to my trust or estate;
provided, that my Executrix or Trustee shall not
be excused from liability for her or its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct;
is Ii_., 1� Ijfy
aoai E 1►5�
(c) When used in this document the term "hazardous
substance" shall mean any substance defined as
hazardous or toxic or otherwise regulated by any
federal, state or local law, rule or regulation
relating to the protection of the environment or
human health ("environmental law").
(12) RENOUNCE POWERS: To renounce, in whole or in part, any
rights, privileges, powers and immunities granted to my
Executrix and Trustee, whether such rights, privileges,
powers and immunities are granted under this will or
conferred by law, by executing and filing a written
renunciation with the clerk of court of the county in
which proceedings have been commenced for the
administration of my estate. My Executrix' or
Trustee's application for appointment or assumption of
duties as fiduciary shall not waive or bar my
Executrix' or Trustee's right to renounce any right,
privileges, power or immunity.
(13) INCOME AND PRINCIPAL APPORTIONMENT: The Trustee shall have
discretion to determine whether items should be charged
or credited to income or principal, or be apportioned
between income and principal, including the power to
provide or not to provide a reasonable reserve against
depreciation, depletion or obsolescence, provided that
no allocation of administration expenses shall be made
to income that would require a reduction in the estate
tax marital deduction pursuant to Section 2056(b)(4) of
the Internal Revenue Code. The Trustee shall exercise
its discretion in such manner as it may reasonably deem
equitable and just under all the circumstances and
regardless of whether such items are charged or
credited to or apportioned between income and principal
as provided in Chapter 37A of the North Carolina
General Statutes.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this will to the
contrary, no power or authority conferred by law or expressed or
specifically incorporated in this will shall be exercised in such
manner as would cause any devise for the benefit of my spouse
which would otherwise qualify for the federal estate tax marital
deduction to fail to qualify for such deduction, except the
foregoing shall not limit my Executrix' right to elect not to
claim the federal estate tax marital deduction with respect to
any property which is eligible for such deduction.
ARTICLE IX.
In determining whether any beneficiary under this will
survives me, or survives another beneficiary under this will, the
provisions of Article 24, Chapter 28A of the North Carolina
General Statutes shall apply, except as follows. If my wife,
BRENDA H. TOWLES, and I die under such circumstances that it is
difficult or impossible to ascertain which of us was the first tc
die, or if my said wife survives me, but does not survive me for
the length of time required by Article 24, Chapter 28A of the
North Carolina General Statutes, it shall nevertheless be
presumed that my said wife survived me, and insofar as permitted,
Article 24, Chapter 28A, of the North Carolina General Statutes
shall not apply in determining the order of death of my said wife
and I. My estate shall be administered and distributed in
accordance with the foregoing presumptions.
ARTICLE X.
