Subject: NPDES Permit Number NCS000416
Dear Mr. Hewett:
Enclosed for your review and comment is the draft Phase 11 NPDES Stormwater Permit
for the Town of Leland.
In a letter dated May 18, 2005, the Director, in response to the great volume of concern
expressed regarding DWQ ability to adequately protect our coastal waters and resources utilizing
low density impervious surface limits, directed DWQ staff to withhold issuance of individual
Phase II permits for communities within the Coastal Counties until such time that a review of the
effectiveness of the proposed post -construction stormwater control measures in the draft Phase 11
Permits and the existing State Coastal Stormwater Program could be completed. D.WQ has
decided to move forward with drafting Phase II Permits for the coastal communities.
Specifically for the coastal communities, we are purposing development activities located
with the permittee's jurisdiction that disturb 5,000 square feet or more of land shall control'the
runoff from the first one and one half inch of rainfall. In addition, all impervious surfaces, except
for roads, paths, and water dependent structures, shall be located at least 30 feet landward of all
perennial and. intermittent surface waters. Redevelopment activities that meet the provisions of
15A NCAC 2H .1002(14) shall not be required to comply with these specific requirements.
Purposed structural stormwater controls include the following criteria:
(1) Remove an 85% average annual amount of Total Suspended Solids.
(2) For wet detention ponds draw down the treatment volume no faster than 48 hours, but
no slower than 120 hours.
(3) Discharge the storage volume at a rate equal or less than the pre -development
discharge rate for the 1-year, 24-hour storm.
(4) Meet the General Engineering Design Criteria set forth in 15A NCAC 2H .1008(c).
We believe that this draft permit will provide your community with the flexibility vital for
your community, while at the same time safeguarding and protecting our natural environment for
future generations of North Carolinians. -

During the period beginning on the effective date of the permit and lasting until expiration, the
Town of Leland is authorized to discharge stormwater from the municipal separate storm sewer
system (MS4) to receiving waters, The Brunswick River, Sturgeon Creek, Mill Creek, Jackey's

applicable federal, state, or local law, rule stand rd,o dinance, order, judgment, or decree.

6. Under the authority of Section 402(p) of the Clean Water Act and implementing regulations 40
CFR Part 122, 123 and 124, North Carolina General Statutes 143-215.1 and Session Law 2004-

management practices consistent with the provisions of the Stormwater Management Plan
constitutes compliance with the standard of reducing pollutants to the maximum extent
practicable. Successive iterations of the Stormwater Management Plan and other components of
this permit will be driven by the objective of assuring that discharges do not cause or contribute
to the violation of water quality standards, through the expansion and tailoring of management
measures within the scope of the Stormwater Management Plan.

21. Stormwater Runoff
The flow of water which results from precipitation and which occurs immediately following
rainfall or as a result of snowmelt.
22. Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) 1
A TMDL is a calculation of the maximum amount of a pollutant that a waterbody can receive
and still meet water quality standards, and an allocation of that amount to the pollutant's sources.
A TMDL is a detailed water quality assessment that provides the scientific foundation for an
implementation plan. The implementation plan outlines the stepsrnecessary to reduce pollutant
loads in a certain body of water to restore and maintain w eraq ality)standards in all seasons.
The Clean Water Act, Section 303, establishes the wate quality standar is and TMDL programs.

Subject: NPDES Phase II Stormwater Program
r
David Hewett:
In 1990 the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Phase t stormwater program was promulgated under the
Clean Water Act. Phase t relies on National Pollutant discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit coverage to
address stormwater runoff from: (1) "medium" and "large" municipal separate storm sewer systems (MS4s) generally
serving populations of 160,000 or greater, (2) construction activity disturbing 5 acres of land or greater, and (3) ten
categories of industrial activity. The NPDES Stormwater Phase II Final Rule was promulgated in December 1999 and is
the next step in EPA's effort to preserve, protect, and improve the Nation's water resources from polluted storm water
runoff. The Phase II program expands the Phase I program by requiring additional operators of MS4s in urbanized areas
and operators of small construction sites, through the use of NPDES permits, to implement programs and practices to
control stormwater runoff'. Phase II is intended to further reduce adverse impacts to water quality and aquatic habitat by
instituting the use of controls on the unregulated sources of stormwater discharges that have the greatest likelihood of
causing continued environmental degradation.
The NPDES Stormwater Phase II Final Rule requires nationwide coverage of all operators of small MS4s that are
located within the boundaries of a Bureau of the Census defined "urbanized area" based on the latest decennial Census.
We are writing to you to remind you that the Town of Leland has been identified as being located within a census
designated urbanized area in both the 1990 and 2000 decennial census. As a regulated community, you are required to
develop a stormwater management program and apply for stormwater permit coverage, if you own and operate a small
MS4 or file a certification that the Town of Leland does not own or operate a small MS4. The deadline for submitting
your application package or non -ownership certification is March 10, 2003, Application and certification documents, as
well as additional information on the NPDES stormwater program, are available for download at our web site . Our web
address is http:Ilh2o.enr.state.nc.us/sLt/stormwater.htm1. You may also contact us for hard copies of the documents. If
you have any questions about this letter, please feel free to contact me (919-733-5083, ext.525) or Darren England
