Also, this letter gives the notice required by G.S. 113A-61.1(a) of our right of periodic inspection to ensure
compliance with the approved plan.
North Carolina's Sedimentation Pollution Control Program 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. This permit allows for a land-disturbance,as called for on the application
plan,not to exceed the approved acres. Exceeding the acreage will be a violation of this permit and would require
a revised plan and additional application fee. You are requested to file an amended form if there is any change in
the infoi ination included on the form. In addition, it would be helpful if you notify this office of the proposed
starting date for this project. Please notify us if you plan to have a preconstruction conference.
Your cooperation is appreciated_

Approval Letter and Conditions
Project Name: Appletree Street Storage Yard
Project ID: BRUNS-2024-003
County: Brunswick
e
1. This plan approval shall expire three(3)years following the date of approval, if no land-disturbing activity has
been undertaken, as is required by Title 15A NCAC 4B .0129.
2. The developer is responsible for the control of sediment on-site. If the approved erosion and sedimentation
control measures prove insufficient, the developer must take those additional steps necessary to stop sediment
from leaving this site(NCGS 113A-57(3)). Each sediment storage device must be inspected after each storm
event(NCGS 113A-54.1(e)). Maintenance and/or clean out is necessary anytime the device is at 50%capacity.
All sediment storage measures will remain on site and functional until all grading and final landscaping of the
project is complete(15A NCAC 04B .0113).
3. Any and all existing ditches on this project site are assumed to be left undisturbed by the proposed development
unless otherwise noted. The removal of vegetation within any existing ditch or channel is prohibited unless the
ditch or channel is to be regarded with side slopes of 2 horizontal to 1 vertical or less steep (15A NCAC
04B .0124 (d)). Bank slopes may be mowed but stripping of vegetation is considered new earth work and is
subject to the same erosion control requirements as new ditches(NCGS 113A52(6)).
4. The developer is responsible for obtaining any and all peituits and approvals necessary for the development of
this project prior to the commencement of this land disturbing activity. This could include our agency's
Stormwater regulations and the Division of Water Resources' enforcement requirements within Section 401 of
the Clean Water Act, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers'jurisdiction of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act,
the Division of Coastal Management's CAMA requirements,the Division of Solid Waste
Management's landfill regulations, the Environmental Protection Agency and/or The U.S. Army Corps of
Engineers jurisdiction of the Clean Water Act, local County or Municipalities' ordinances, or others that may
be required. This approval cannot supersede any other penuit or approval; however, in the case of a Cease-
and-Desist Order from the Corps of Engineers, that Order would only apply to wetland areas. All highlands
would still have to be in compliance with the N.C. Sedimentation Pollution Control Act.
5. If any area on site falls within the jurisdiction of Section 401 or 404 of the Clean Water Act,the developer is
responsible for compliance with the requirements of the Division of Water Resources (DWR), the Corps of
Engineers and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) respectively. Any erosion control measures that
fall within jurisdictional wetland areas must be approved by the aforementioned agencies prior to installation.
The Land Quality Section must be notified of a relocation of the measures in question to the transition point
between the wetlands and the uplands to assure that the migration of sediment will not occur. If that relocation
presents a problem or contradicts any requirements of either DWR,the Corps,or the EPA,it is the responsibility
of the developer to inform the Land Quality Section regional office so that an adequate contingency plan can
be made to assure sufficient erosion control remains on site. Failure to do so will be considered a violation of
this approval (NCGS 113A-54.1(b)).
6. Any borrow material brought onto this site must be from a legally operated mine or other approved source.
Any soil waste that leaves this site can be transported to a permitted mine or separately permitted construction
