RE: Project Name: Wellness Center Pond
Acres Approved: 10.58
Project ID: MONTG-2023-008
County: Montgomery, City: Mt. Gilead
Address: Roper Grove Church Road
River Basin: Yadkin-PeeDee
Stream Classification: Other
Submitted by: Heather Reynolds
Date Received by LQS: June 30, 2022
Plan Type: Commercial
Dear Mr. Jordan:
This office has reviewed the subject erosion and sedimentation control plan. We find
the plan to be acceptable and hereby issue this Letter of Approval. The enclosed
Certificate of Approval must be posted at the job site. This plan 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.
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 NCG010000 Construction Stormwater General Permit.
This form MUST be submitted and COC issued prior to the commencement of any
land disturbing activity on the above-named project. The NOI form may be accessed
at deq.nc.gov/NCG01. Please direct questions about the NO1 form to Brooklyn
Broussard at [e-mail] or Paul Clark at
[e-mail]. After you submit a complete and correct NOI Form, a COC
will be emailed to you within three business days. Initially, DEMLR will not charge
a fee for coverage under the NCG01 permit. However, on or after June 1,2019, a
$100 fee will be charged annually. This fee is to be sent to the DEMLR Stormwater
Central Office staff in Raleigh.

Title 15A NCAC 4B .0118(a) and the NCGO1 permit require that the following documentation
be kept on file at the job site:
1. 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 30 days.
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 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 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. This permit allows for 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. Any addition in impervious surface, over that already
noted on the approved plan, would also require a revised plan to verify the
appropriateness of the erosion control measures and the stormwater retention
measures. (GS 113A-54.1(b)). 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.
Sincerely,
G1 nr:A. i3 c6'`.

Fact Sheet on the New NCG01 Permit DEQ
April 2019
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 NCG01 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(919) 707-3639.
