RHODES, AICP Assistant County Manager for Planning and Environment This is to advise you that the Pitt County Technical Review Committee conditionally approved the soil erosion and sedimentation control plan for Colonial Materials on February 8, 2023, and hereby issue this Certificate of Conditional Approval. Conditions and requirements as a part of this approval are attached below. Copies of the draft minutes from the meeting will be available upon request prior to the next Technical Review Committee meeting. As stipulated on the financial responsibility form, you are responsible for ensuring compliance with all aspects of the approved plan and the Pitt County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance. Your primary objectives include, but are not limited to, preventing offsite sedimentation, preventing sediment from entering watercourses, and establishing vegetation on all disturbed areas within 7-14 calendar days, following any completion of a phase of grading. As of April 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 NCGO10000 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 deg.nc. rov/NCGO1. Please direct questions about the NOI form to Annette Lucas at Annette.lucas(Wncdenr.gov or Paul Clark at Paul. clark(d,=denr.y. After you submit a complete and correct NOI Form, a COC will be emailed to you within three business days. Please be aware that your project will be covered by requirements of the NPDES Construction Stormwater General Permit NCGO10000. Please become familiar with all the requirements and conditions of this permit in order to achieve compliance. Upon discovery of noncompliance by our office, the following actions may be taken: 1. No further permits for building or other construction will be issued. 2. The authority to continue construction, other than for erosion control measures, will be terminated. 3. Penalties of up to $5000 per day may begin to accrue. Failure to immediately comply upon notice of noncompliance will result in injunctive and/or criminal action. Other Comments: 4. This erosion control plan shall expire three years following the date of approval if no land disturbing activity has been undertaken. 5. The Division of Water Quality may pursue legal action against you in order to enforce requirements of the NPDES, Phase II permit. 6. The Pitt County Soil Erosion and Sedimentation Control Ordinance authorizes County officials to inspect sites to ensure compliance with the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act. Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) requires that a copy of the approved erosion control plan be on file at the job site. 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. Land disturbance shall not begin until a preconstruction meeting has taken place. An updated approval letter will be sent once the revised plans have been submitted and reviewed. Please provide a copy of the certificate of coverage prior to beginning any land disturbance. If you need further information or assistance, please contact me at (252) 902-3250. Sincerely, Z� '900� Thomas Shrader Planner III CC: Marie Peedin, Inner Banks Engineering CONDITIONS AND REQUIREMENTS [Planning] 1. A payment to a private mitigation bank or the Environmental Enhancement Program (EEP) is required to meet the nitrogen loading requirements of the Pitt County Stormwater Ordinance. This payment must be made prior to approval of the plan. This payment has been made, but County staff are waiting on the corrected form. 2. A check dam may be needed at Taylor's Creek Drive if erosion occurs. 3. Pipe size under entrance and any FES should be labeled. 4. Show easements on the plan. [Environmental Health] 5. There is an active septic permit (17694-01) for lot 37. Upon inspection of the property it was found that the gravel parking area had already been constructed and was in use. The gravel area extended over the permitted septic area. A ditch that appears to have been enlarged runs along the left side of the property also encroaches on the septic areas. Environmental Health has issued an intent to revoke for this permit. This is a 30-day process if the owners do not contest the revocation. The owners have voluntarily relinquished the permit to provide resolution to the issue. [General Comments] [Planning] • Soils located on site include By, Ly, and Ra per the Pitt County Soil Survey, Sheets 40 & 48. Green Mill Run Watershed The adjacent drainage laterals should be cleaned out to their original bottom for improved drainage. There are no records of subsurface drain tile on file, but it is possible for some to be onsite. • The following agencies have reviewed the SESC Plan for Colonial Materials and have no comments: Emergency Management Engineering NCDOT • The following agencies have reviewed the SESC Plan for Colonial Materials and have not returned comments:
