Subject: REQUEST FOR RECORDED DEED RESTRICTIONS
REQUEST FOR DESIGNER'S CERTIFICATION
Lena Springs Subdivision
Stormwater Project No. SW8 011121
Brunswick County
Dear Mr. Ricks:
On August 29, 2008, the Wilmington Regional Office issued a Stormwater Management
Permit to you for Lena Springs Subdivision. Per Section 11.17 of the permit, a copy of the
recorded deed restrictions must be forwarded within 30 days of the date of recording. A
review of our files indicates that, as of this date, a copy of the amended recorded deed
restrictions has not been received in this Office. A deed restriction was recorded on
April 21, 2006 in DB 2375 at PG 727, however this document restricted each iot.to
2,800 square feet of built-upon area. The amount permitted for each of the 182 lots in
the May 29, 2008 permit is 3,000 square feet. If you wish to revise the originally
allocated 2,800 sf to 3,000 sf, you will need.to amend the covenants however it is not a
permit violation to restrict the lot BUA to less than the permitted amount.
The Designer's Certification has not been submitted, as required per Section 11.10 of the
permit, and Stormwater Regulation 15A NCAC 2H.1008(j), which stipulates the
following:
"Upon completion of construction, the designer for the type of Stormwater system
installed must certify that the system was inspected during construction, was
constructed.in substantial conformity with plans and specifications approved by
the Division and complies with the requirements of this Section prior to issuance
of the certificate of occupancy."
Construction is considered complete at the time the project is occupied by an owner or
tenant for its intended use. As of this date, our records indicate the required designer's
certification has not been received. Operation of the stormwater system prior to
submission of the required certification, failure to submit the required Designer's
Certification, failure to record and/or provide a copy of the recorded deed restrictions
prior to selling lots, are all violations of your permit, and subject to enforcement action.
The Division would like to refresh your memory regarding your obligations under the
permit. The permit allocates 3,000 square feet of built-upon area per lot, which you are
responsible for over-seeing and maintaining. You, through the Architectural Control
Committee, should be reviewing each proposed lot plan for compliance with the BUA
limit. Once a lot plan is approved, you should conduct routine monitoring of the lots to
ensure each lot owner is complying with the maximum BUA limit.

Regarding the need to transfer the permit to the HOA in the future, the Division
would like to remind you that the transfer of the stormwater permit is NOT
automatic upon the conveyance of the common areas to the HOA. In order to
transfer the stormwater permit, the Name/Ownership Change form must be
completed, signed and submitted, an inspection must be done, and certain other
criteria must be met such as the financial ability of the HOA to take on the permit
and the required maintenance, that a sufficient number of lots are sold, and that
the president of the association is not affiliated with the permittee. The Division
will be glad to further explain the transfer process to you at your convenience.
Please submit the required Designer's Certification and a copy of the recorded
deed restrictions, if they will be amended, to this Office at the address below by
March 16, 2011, or enforcement action may be initiated and may include
recommendations for civil penalties and revocation of the permit.
Please also be advised that a compliance inspection will be performed in the
near future due to complaints that the system is not being maintained and there
is some erosion that is not being repaired.Your permit requires you to perform
routine maintenance of the permitted stormwater systems to achieve peak
performance.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call me at [phone].
Sincerely,
Linda Lewis

David:
The Lena Springs Subdivision (SW8 011121) is in Navassa. The Town Manager passed on a complaint to me
from the residents about erosion of the banks and a general lack of maintenance. I pulled the file and found a
recorded deed restriction for 2800 sf per lot, which is less than the permitted amount of 3000 per lot.
There are 2 permitted wet ponds, but no Designer's Certifications in the file.
The corporate entity, Lena Springs, LLC, is a local company (1630 Military Cutoff Road Suite 108) and is still
organized under the SOS, although they haven't submitted an annual report since 2009. They are not on the
dissolved list, either.
I've composed a letter requesting the DC's and explaining the need to maintain and the transfer process in
general to get the ball rolling. If you could do the inspection for the erosion/maintenance issues and anything
else you see (layout, #of lots, roads, drainage, overbuilding, etc.), then write up the inspection report to include
a note about the discrepancy in the DR's (2800 vs. 3000) and the lack of the DC's for the ponds.
I have the file in my office. Thanks,
Linda

Linda,
It was good seeing you today and I always appreciate your willingness to assist the Town of Navassa. I have received a
few complaints regarding the stormwater ponds in the Lena Springs Subdivision here in Navassa and I would like to
request that an inspection be performed. Specifically the complaints have been in regards to maintenance and erosion
around the BMP. Please let me know if you need any additional information at this time. Thanks.
