As of March 1, 2019, all new construction activities are required to complete and
submit an electronic Notice of Intent (NOI) form requesting a Certificate of Coverage
(COC) under the NCG010000 Construction Stormwater General Permit.
This form MUST be submitted prior to the commencement of any land disturbing
activity on the above named project. The NOI form may be accessed at
ded.nc.gov/NCG01. Please direct questions about the N0I form to Annette Lucas at
Annette.lucas@ncdenr.g_ov or Paul Clark at Pau,l_.clark@ncdenr;gov.After you submit
a complete and correct NOI Form, a COC will be emailed to you within three business
days. Initially, DEMLR will not charge a fee for coverage under the NCG01 permit.
However, on or after May 1, 2019, a $100 fee will be charged annually. This fee is to
be sent to the DEMLR Stormwater Central Office staff in Raleigh.
Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) and the NCG01 permit require that the following
documentation be kept on file at the job site:
1. The approved E&SC plan as well as any approved deviation.
2. The NCG01 permit and the COC, once it is received.
3. Records of inspections made during the previous 30 days..
Also, this letter gives the notice required by G.S. 113A-61.1(a) 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.
