Mr. Spano,
This office has reviewed the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan submitted for the project listed below. We fmd the
plan to be acceptable with the attached modifications and/orperforntance reservations and hereby issue this Letter of
Approval. Please be advised that Section 26-228 requires that a copy ofthe approved Soil Erosion Control Plan be on file
at the job site.
The Buncombe County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance is a performance oriented program requiring
protection of the natural resources and adjoining properties. If, following commencement ofthis project it is determined
that the plan is inadequate, this office may require revisions to the plan and its implementation. The approval for this
project is good for the time frame stated on the original land disturbing permit. This permit shall become null and
void if you have not made progress to begin construction activities on the site within six months after the date of
approval. Renewal of the land disturbing permit will require a new plan review submittal with associated fees.
The approval of an erosion plan is conditioned on the applicant's compliance with federal and state water quality laws,
regulations, and rules. A copy of the erosion control plan for any land disturbing activity that involves the utilization of
ditches for the purpose of de -watering or lowering the water table must be forwarded to the director of water quality.
*As ofApril 1, 2019, allnew construction activities are required to complete and submit an electronic Notice oflntent
(NOI) for requesting a Certificate of Coverage (COC) under the NCG01000 Construction Stormwater General
Permit. This form MUST be submitted prior to the commencement of any land disturbing activity on the below
named project. The NOI form maybe accessed at deg, nc.Qov/NCG01. Please direct all questions about the NOI form
or the process to Annette Lucas at Annette.lucas(a),ncdenngeov or Paul Clark at Paul. clark(a)ncdenngov. 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 and is not
collected by this local program. Once the NCG01 permit has been completed and approved by DEMLR, a project
permit number will be given for this project that must be written on the Buncombe County Land Disturbing Permit,
which must be on site throughout the construction phase of the project.
When the project is complete, the financially responsible party or their representative will contact Buncombe County
Erosion and Sedimentation Control Office to close out the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan. A Certificate of
Compliance will be issued for the project once the site meets the requirement as stated in the original Letter of
Approval and standards stated in the Buncombe County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance. The
responsible party will then be instructed to visit rleg.nc.Qov/NCG01 to submit an e NOT (electronic Notice of
Termination) form for closing out the NCG01 permit. Please refer to the attached NCG01 Fact Sheet.

A Combined Self -Monitoring and Self -Inspection Form for the NCGO1 is enclosed. Please review all pertinent
documents prior to starting construction. We look forward to working with you on this project.
