Dear Mr. Hevier:
This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find the plan to
be acceptable with modifications and hereby issue this Letter of Approval with Modifications.
The enclosed Certificate of Approval must be posted at the job site. This plan approval shall
expire three (3) years following the date of approval, if no land -disturbing activity has been
undertaken, as is required by Title 15A NCAC 4B .0129.
As of April 1, 2019, all financially responsible parties for 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 deq.nc.gov/NCGOI. Please direct questions
about the NOI form to Ms. Annette Lucas at [e-mail] or Mr. Paul Clark at
[e-mail]. 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 NCGO1 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 NCGOI permit require that the following documentation
be kept on file at the job site: resurrected
1. The approved E&SC plan as well as any approved deviation.
2. The NCGO1 permit and the COC, once it is received.
3. Records of inspections made during the previous 30 days. Note that the Sediment
Pollution Control Act (113A-54.1(e)) states that "The record shall be maintained until permanent
ground cover is established...."
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.
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.
Sincerely,
