c. TRANSFER. This permit is not transferable to any person or entity except after notice to
and approval by the Director. Neither the sale of the project, in whole or in part, nor the
conveyance of common area to a third party constitutes an approved transfer of the ATC
stormwater permit. The permittee is responsible for compliance with all permit conditions
until such time as the Division approves the transfer request. To transfer this permit, either
submit a new ATC application form (with all required items) or apply for a standard
stormwater permit through the standard permitting process. Full or partial designers'
certifications must be completed and submitted with the new ATC application or the new
standard permit application for any SCMs that were already completed under the ATC. If
the project is sold without notification to DEMLR, then this ATC permit shall be rendered
null and void, the project will be out of compliance, and construction will not be allowed
until a new standard permit application is submitted and approved for the project.
d. RENEWAL. This ATC permit may be renewed by providing a renewal application with all
required items at least 180 days prior to the expiration date of this permit.
e. EXPIRATION. If the ATC permit expires, the project shall be considered out of
compliance, and thus shall be disqualified from renewal through the fast track permitting
process. In this case, the permittee shall obtain a permit through the standard permitting
process to complete the project. Full or partial designer certifications must be completed
and submitted with the standard permit application for any SCMs that were already
completed under the ATC.
4. DOCUMENTATION AND INSPECTION. The ATC application and required items and technical
design documents shall be available upon request by the Division throughout the life of this

facility.

Final Fast Track Stormwater Permit Application and all required items shall be submitted to
DEMLR in accordance with Rule 15A NCAC 02H .1044(3). Approval of the as -built stormwater
plans shall be required before the Erosion and Sedimentation Control Plan for the project may
be closed out.

stormwater management permit or the requirements of the stormwater rules is subject to
enforcement action as set forth in NCGS 143, Article 21. Any of the following actions shall be
