Good Afternoon,

We received your application for a major modification to stormwater permit SW1170501 on 1/18/2022. At this time, the
submission is not administratively complete and cannot be accepted for review in its current condition. Please provide
the following submittal items within 30 calendar days (by close of business on 2/18/2022) so that we may accept the
project and begin the review process, otherwise, the project will be returned as administratively incomplete. Typically,
we don’t offer extensions on the administrative completeness review, but I may not have been as clear as I should have
been with my original comments (my apologies).

- Prior Comment –
Please also provide the “As-Built
‘Permittee Certification’” and “Low Density” forms.

If these items are received within the stipulated timeframe, we can accept the project and begin the review process.
Once accepted, reviews under the standard permitting process generally take 30 – 45 calendar days, but can take up to
90 calendar days per statute (one of our two reviewer positions is currently vacant so this review will probably be closer
to 45 days than 30).

Hard copies should be mailed to the following address:

Jim,

The attached documents should address all of the outstanding administrative items you have referenced below. The hard
copies of this package is in the mail to be overnighted as of late this afternoon (1/14/22), but given the upcoming
inclement weather and other mail delivery issues with COVID, etc – I wanted to make sure you are aware that we have
taken action to provide you the required items prior to the 1/18/22 deadline you indicated below.

Please let me know if there is anything else I can do to help with the processing/review of this application. Thanks,

Subject: SW1170501; Acony Bell - Major Modification

Good Afternoon,

We received your application for a major modification to stormwater permit SW1170501 on 12/16/2021. At this time,
the submission is not administratively complete and cannot be accepted for review in its current condition. Please
provide the following submittal items within 30 calendar days (by close of business on 1/18/2021) so that we may
accept the project and begin the review process, otherwise, the project will be returned as administratively incomplete.

- 1x original signed & sealed hard copy of the Supplement-EZ Form (Available here:
https://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-and-land-resources/stormwater/stormwater-
program/stormwater-design). This item is required per Section VI, 3 of the Application. Please click on the “Load
Supplement Forms” link (Above the designer’s certification) and fill out/provide the drainage areas page and the
low-density page (please include the swale information for the other phases of the project if possible).
- Please provide contact information, such as email address and phone number, for the permittee (Section III, 1b
of the Application). This information allows us to get in contact with the permittee if needed and allows us to
send the permittee an electronic copy of the permit and file once it gets approved.
- 1x hard copy of the recorded deed restrictions, protective covenants, and drainage easements as required per
the original permit.
- 1x hard copy of a designer’s certification. This item is required per Section II, 1b of the Application. These forms
can be found here: https://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/energy-mineral-and-land-
resources/stormwater/stormwater-program/post-construction-program/post-construction-forms Since the
project is partly complete, complete as much of the forms as you can.
- 2x hard copies of a full-sized plan sheet showing the following:
o Drainage area map for the proposed swales. This item is required per Section VI, 8o of the Application
and 15A NCAC 02H .1042(2)(g)(iv).

NOTE: This is an administrative completeness review, not a detailed engineering review. The following items were noted
during this review, but do not need to be addressed for this submission to be administratively complete and accepted
for review (but these issues, and possibly others, will probably be brough up during the engineering review):
- Section IV, 10 – For a low-density project, the “drainage area” is equal to the project area as shown in Section IV,
7 and there is no off-site component. This project appears to be located within 5 miles of Harnett Regional
Jetport (Section II, 5).

If these items are received within the stipulated timeframe, we can accept the project and begin the review process.
Once accepted, reviews under the standard permitting process generally take 30 – 45 calendar days, but can take up to
90 calendar days per statute (one of our two reviewer positions is currently vacant so this review will probably be closer
to 45 days than 30).
