Acres Approved: 0.79
Submitted by: The Tuscan Group, Inc.
Date Received: 1/17/2024
To The Above Named Person(s) and/or Entity,
This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan to be
acceptable and hereby issue this Letter of Approval.
Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan: This plan approval shall expire (2) years following the
date on this Letter of Approval, unless a Land-Disturbing Permit has been obtained within that initial
two-year period and remains in effect as provided in G.S. 164.12 (H). Active sites may have the
permit renewed by applying for renewal 30 days prior to expiration.
Section 164.10 (L) of the Chatham County Sedimentation and Erosion Control Ordinance requires
that a copy of the approved erosion control plan be on file at the job site.
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
Chatham County Sedimentation and Erosion Control Ordinance, this office may require revisions to
the plan and implementation of the revisions to ensure compliance with the Act.
Acceptance and approval of this plan is conditioned upon your compliance with county, state and
federal 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.
Inspections_ This letter gives the notice required by G.S. 113A-61.1(a) of our right of periodic
inspection to ensure compliance with the approved plan.
Section 164.12 (I) of the Chatham County Sedimentation and Erosion Control Ordinance requires
self-inspections and monitoring for all sites receiving a Land Disturbing Permit. These inspections
can be done by the Financially Responsible Party, or an agent thereof. These inspections must occur
at a minimum of once a week and within 24 hours of any rain event of 1.0 inch or greater. Copies of
inspection records and reports must be kept on site and produced to Chatham County upon request.

NPDES General Stormwater Permit NCG010000: As of April 1, 2019, all new construction
activities subject to the requirements must complete and submit an electronic Notice of Intent (e-
NOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the NCG010000 Construction General
Permit at the following website: https://deq.nc.gov/NCG01. After the form is reviewed and
found to be complete, you will receive a link with payment instructions for the applicable annual
permit fee. After the fee is processed, you will receive the COC via email. As the Financially
Responsible Party shown on the FRO form submitted for this project, you MUST obtain the COC
prior to commencement of any land disturbing activity. Please direct questions about the e-NOI form
to the Stormwater Program staff in the Raleigh central office. If the owner/operator of this project
changes in the future, the new responsible party must obtain a new COC.
Please also be aware that you are required to provide updated information, in the event
circumstances change regarding your project, to the North Carolina Department of Environmental
Quality's Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources by filing a "Modification Form". This can
be found at https://deq.nc.gov/NCG01.
Land-Disturbing Permit: A Land-Disturbing Permit will be issued by Chatham County only after
the above-referenced Certificate of Coverage is provided to Chatham County. Construction activities
can begin only after the Land Disturbing Permit is issued. Active sites may have the permit renewed
by applying for renewal 30 days prior to expiration. Chatham County's Land-Disturbing Permit must
be posted at the job site once received.
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. Please notify us when you would like to
schedule a preconstruction conference. Notification shall be given at least 7 days prior to initiation
of activity.
Respectfully,
Justin Hasenfus, CPESC
