RE: Grading Permit#50-23, LNDP 23-00064,Alexandra Place
Dear Dr.Arnold Sobol,
This office has reviewed the erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan to be acceptable
and hereby issue this land-disturbing permit with modifications. Please read the permit conditions
carefully,.return the signed color original to our office and keep the copyjor your records. A copy of the
enclosed land-disturbing permit must be posted at the job site. This letter gives the notice required by
GS 113A-61.1(a) and the New Hanover County Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance Article VIII
Section 8.21 of our right of periodic inspection to ensure compliance with the approved plan.
As of April 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and submit an electronic
Notice of Intent (eN01) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the NCG010000
Construction General Permit. 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. The eNO1 form
and fee details may be accessed at deq.nc.gov/NCG01. Please direct questions about the eNOl 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.
A copy of the enclosed land-disturbing permit,a copy of the approved erosion and sedimentation control
plan as well as any approved deviations, records of inspections made during the previous 12 months with
the States Certificate of Compliance (COC) number on the report, and a rain gauge must be posted at the
job site as required by 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a), the NCG01 permit, and the New Hanover County Erosion
and Sedimentation Control Ordinance Article VIII Section 8.19(o).
The land disturbing fee of$2346 is due to be paid to New Hanover County Engineering, to my attention,
prior to Plat Recordation or issuance of any Certificate of Occupancy or Certificate of Completion
Compliance, whichever is occurs first.

A preconstruction meeting is optional prior to land-disturbing activity on this project. Please contact me
at (910) 798-7139 if you would like to schedule this meeting in our office. If you choose not to have a
preconstruction meeting,you must contact us with the date the land-disturbing activity will take place
onsite and again once the initial erosion control measures are installed.
New Hanover County's Erosion and Sedimentation Control Program is performance-oriented, requiring
protection of existing natural resources and adjoining properties. If,following the commencement of this
project, it is determined that the erosion and sedimentation control plan is inadequate to meet the
requirements of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act of 1973 (North Carolina General Statutes 113A-
51 through 66), and the New Hanover County Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance Article VIII
Section 8.19 (f), this office may require revisions to the plan and its implementation of the revisions to
ensure compliance with the Act and Ordinance.
This land-disturbing permit will expire within 1 year following the date of approval, if no land-disturbing
activity has been undertaken,as required by the New Hanover County Erosion and Sedimentation Control
Ordinance Article VIII Section 8.18 (d). If no activity takes place within one year after work has begun
onsite,the permit will expire. Please contact this office to reactivate a permit that has expired.
Acceptance and approval of this erosion control plan is conditioned upon your compliance with
Federal and State water quality laws, regulations and rules and local city or county ordinances or rules.
This land-disturbing permit approval does not supersede any other permits or approvals. It is the owner's
responsibility to have all the permits and approvals that are required, prior to beginning construction.
Please note this approval is based in part on the accuracy of the information provided in the Financially
Responsibility Form,which you provided.You are required to file an amended form if there is any change
in the information included on the form.
Your cooperation is appreciated,
