Also, this letter gives the notice required by I I };' ( I iw(ii) of our right of periodic inspection to insure
compliance with the approved plan.
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 Sedimentation
Pollution Control Act of 1973 (North Carolina General Statute 113A-51 through 66), this office may require
revisions to the plan and implementation of the revisions to insure compliance with the Act.
Acceptance and approval of this plan is conditioned upon your compliance with Federal and State 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. We need to
advise you to proceed with caution in the protected wetland and stream areas, no impacts, not even
temporary ones, are allowed to the wetlands or Poplar stream until the wetland delineation has been updated
(it is currently out of date as of 2008) and approved and all stream crossing and wetland impacts have been
permitted.
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. In addition, it would be helpful if you notify this office of the
proposed starting date for this project. Please notify us if you plan to have a preconstruction conference.
Your cooperation is appreciated.

NCGO1 Fact Sheet
Fact Sheet on the New NCG01 Permit DEQ�
March 2019 v�,,.
hnNnMN tint ent.,cuaoV e'd
The NC Construction General Permit(also known as"NCG01")was renewed on March 1,2019.The updated
permit does not significantly change the measures that are required to be implemented on construction sites.
However,there are some organizational and technical updates to the permit as described below. Most notably,
there is a new process in which construction sites will obtain official coverage under an NCGO1 permit through an
electronic process. DEMLR worked with a broad team of stakeholders to make all of these updates. If you have
questions,contact Annette Lucas at Annette.Iucas@ncdenr.gov or(919) 707-6369.
