Dear Mr. Paul:
Effective August 1, 2013 the Post -Construction Stormwater Management Program has been transferred from the

these requirements will result in future compliance problems. Please note that this permit is not transferable
except after notice to and approval by the Division.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the right to request
