specifications has determined that the project, as proposed, will comply with the Stormwater
Regulations set forth in Title 15A NCAC 2H.1000 Therefore permit SW8 970726 has been
renewed on April 9, 2009 and shall be effective from the date of issuance until December 2,
2017.
This permit shall be effective to subject to the conditions and limitations as specified therein.

with the terms and conditions of this state stormwater permit. A plan of action to correct the
deficiencies noted in the April 9, 2009 Notice of Inspection will need to be submitted to the
Division of Water Quality. Failure to provide the requested plan of action may initiate
enforcement action
The plans previously approved on April 8, 1998 remain in full force and effect.
If any parts, requirements, or limitations contained in this permit are unacceptable, you have the
right to request an adjudicatory hearing upon written request within thirty (30) days following

WET DETENTION BASIN OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE AGREEMENT
Maintenance activities shall be performed as follows:
1. After every significant runoff- producing rainfall event and at least monthly:
a. Inspect the wet detention basin. system for sediment accumulation, erosion, trash accumulation,
vegetated cover, and general condition.
b. Check and clear the orifice of any obstructions such that drawdown of the temporary pool occurs within
2 to 5 days as designed.
2. Repair eroded areas immediately, re -seed as necessary to maintain good vegetative cover, mow vegetative
cover to maintain a maximum height of six inches, and remove trash as needed.
3. Inspect and repair the collection system (i.e. catch basins, piping, swales, riprap, etc.) quarterly to maintain
proper functioning.
4. Remove accumulated sediment from the wet detention basin system semi-annually or when depth is reduced to
75% of the original design depth (see diagram below). Removed sediment shall be disposed of in an
appropriate manner and shall be handled in a manner that will not adversely impact water quality (i.e.
stockpiling near a wet detention basin or stream, etc.).
The measuring device used to determine the sediment elevation shall be such that it will give an accurate
depth reading and not readily penetrate into accumulated sediments.
When the permanent pool depth reads feet in the main pond, the sediment shall be removed.
When the permanent pool depth reads feet in the forebay, the sediment shall be removed.

the emergency drain shall be minimized to the maximum extent practical.

7. All components of the wet detention basin system shall be maintained in good working order.
8. Remove all trees and heavy woody vegetation from the basins and dike walls.
