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 12 months. 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, it is determined that 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 ensure 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. Your cooperation is appreciated.

Basin baffles should reach from the bottom of the basin to the emergency spillway. Please provide a detail for the baffles and posts that are the appropriate height and strength for the proposed permanent pond. A 700 g/m2 coin blanket or similar material is recommended. [G.S. 113A-57(3)] 2. Concrete washout station and stockpiles should not be located within 50 feet of any storm drain, basin, or stream unless no alternative is feasible. [G.S. 143-215.1] 3. Be advised the financially responsible parry must have all retaining walls over 4 feet designed, sealed, and construction certified by a professional engineer licensed in North Carolina in accordance with all state and local building codes/ordinances. This plan review is for erosion and sediment control and construction stormwater during construction only and does not include approval of retaining wall construction or slope -stability analysis. [North Carolina Building Code 1807] 4. The NCGO1 has a $100 yearly fee and our office often receives closure inspection requests days prior to yearly NCGO1 fee payment due dates. Be advised the project requires a closure inspection report by DEMLR prior to filing the Notice of Termination (NOT) to terminate NCGO1 coverage. The closure inspection should not be requested until after the site has achieved full vegetative stabilization and measures have been removed. The removal of temporary ESC measures, including basins, requires prior approval. Often, a full growing season is necessary between initial seeding/mulching and removal of measures. Please plan your construction accordingly to avoid contacting our office prematurely for a closure inspection. Also be advised you may be asked for representative site pictures prior to a closure inspection.
