Fact Sheet on the New NCG01 Permit r'
April 2019 x..�wa5o�.wwrq�
The NC Construction General Permit(also known as"NCG01") was renewed on April 1, 2019.The updated permit
does not significantly change the measures that are required to be implemented on construction sites. However,
there are some organizational and technical updates to the permit as described below. Most notably,there is a new
process in which construction sites will obtain official coverage under an NCGO1 permit through an electronic
process. DEMLR worked with a broad team of stakeholders to make all of these updates. If you have questions,
contact Annette Lucas at [e-mail] or [phone].

• Is clearly organized by topic; and e-NOT: Notice of Termination, form for closing out the NCGO1 permit
• Has less text and more tables. SWPPP: Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan, required by the NCGO1
