Dear Mr. Johnson:
On January 3, 2008, Mr. Chad Coburn from the Wilmington Regional Office of the
Division of Water Quality conducted a site inspection for the tract/project known as Eagle Creek,
located off of Highway 17 Business, Lockwood Folly, North Carolina. The site visit and file
review revealed that the subject project has an approved Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan
and is covered by Stormwater General Permit NCGO10000.
A Construction Stormwater General Permit (NCGO10000) is issued upon the approval of
an Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan. This permit applies to projects that receive a
Division of Land Resources (DLR) (or local delegated program) Erosion and Sedimentation
Control Plan for land disturbance of 1 acre or greater. Specifically, the General Permit
(NCGO10000) authorizes the discharge of stormwater under the National Pollutant Discharge
Elimination System (NPDES) in accordance with Title 15A North Carolina Administrative Code
2H.0100.
In addition, this project was inspected for compliance with the 401 Water Quality
Certification (WQC) #3631 with Additional Conditions granted on September 11, 2007 for the
construction of a residential subdivision known as Eagle Creek.
The WQC approved the impact of 0.364 acres of wetland impacts to complete your
project as described in your December 20, 2006 application. All impacts appear to be within the
limits of approval.
Accordingly, the following observations were noted during the Division of Water Quality
inspection:
1) Approved Plan (Part I, Section A: No. 2 )
During the inspection, a copy of the approved Erosion and Sediment Control Plan was on site and
available for review.
2) Rain Gauge (Part I. Section B. No. 1.)
A rain gauge was observed on site at the time of inspection.
