m ay require a revised plan and additional application fee.In addition,it would be helpful if you notify this office of the proposed starting date for this

General Comments:
1.Please print this email as your Letter of Approval for your NCG010000 Certificate of Coverage application.

Q uality inspector for your county. Perm lesion m ust be obtained and granted from NC DEQ DEM LR prior to the rem oval of any ESC m easures. [GS

3.Any off-site borrow and waste required for this project must come from a site with an approved erosion control plan, a site regulated under the
Mining Act of 1971, or a landfill regulated by the Division of Solid Waste Management. Trash/debris from demdition activities or generated by any

control measures prove insufficient,the applicant must take those additional steps necessary to stop sediment from leaving this site. [15A NCAC 4B
.0115]
5.The NCG01 has a $120 yearly fee and our office often receives closure inspection requests days prior to yearly NCGO1 fee payment due dates. Be
advised the project requires a closure inspection report by DEM LR prior to filing the Notice of Term nation (NOT)to term Hate NCG01 coverage. The
closure inspection should not be requested until after the site has achieved full vegetative stabilization and measures have been removed. The
rem oral of tern porary ESC m easures, including basins, requires prior approval. Ofen, a full growing season is necessary between initial
seeding/mulching and removal of measures. Please plan your construction accordingly to avoid contacting our office prematurely for a closure
inspection. Also be advised you may be asked for representative site pictures prior to a closure inspection.[General Comm ant]
