103 <br /> Conditions of Approval <br /> Revised 8/06/14 <br /> taken should you fail to respond by the specified deadlines. It is hoped, and is our commitment, <br /> that the first approach to inspections and compliance will be successful and that a good <br /> working relationship can be established and maintained. <br /> In undertaking this land-disturbing activity, be aware of and observe the following <br /> requirements of the Ordinance. <br /> • PRIORITIES: Erosion and sediment control must be given equal, or greater if <br /> necessary, priority with grading, construction, and other efforts to develop the site. At <br /> certain times (for example, during initial construction and when repairs and <br /> maintenance are required) erosion and sediment control will require more effort to <br /> ensure success. <br /> • EXPIRATION: Erosion control plan approval expires if work does not begin within <br /> 18 months of the date of this letter. The land-disturbing permit expires with the plan <br /> approval or two years after work begins. <br /> • THE WEATHER: Assume that this site will get at least one 6-hour, 10-year storm event <br /> (0.67 inches/hour for 6 hours) and be prepared to handle the resulting runoff and <br /> control the erosion it will cause on the site. If your site is located within the Neuse River <br /> Basin,then erosion control measures are designed to withstand the 25-year storm. <br /> • INITIATIVE: Broyhill Wiles Inc. must take the initiative in implementing the erosion <br /> control plan. This includes seeing that the construction sequence is followed, inspecting <br /> the installed devices, performing maintenance and installing additional devices when <br /> necessary. Do not wait for Erosion Control personnel to discover problems; their <br /> function is not to act as your construction inspector but to spot-check the site for <br /> compliance with the approved plan. When Erosion Control personnel discover problems <br /> and there has been no initiative on your part to make corrections, you will be expected <br /> to make corrections immediately,usually within one or two days. <br /> • OTHER APPROVALS AND PERMITS: This project must comply with all local, State, <br /> and Federal environmental laws. You must have all necessary applicable approvals (i.e., <br /> zoning compliance, Department of Transportation, US Army Corps of Engineers, NC <br /> Division of Water Resources, sewer and water, etc.) required to begin this project so that <br /> work can continue uninterrupted to completion and there are no delays that will <br /> increase erosion and sediment generation. If these approvals are not obtained and work <br /> is suspended while waiting for them, the site will have to be stabilized until work <br /> resumes. If a Land-disturbing permit has not been obtained, it is your responsibility to <br /> ensure that it is purchased before work begins. <br /> • PROPERTY LINES, CLEARING LIMITS, ETC.: Broyhill Wiles Inc. is responsible for <br /> determining where the property lines and clearing limits are, and for staying within <br /> those boundaries. You are also responsible for locating, and protecting such things as <br /> S:\5_Erosion Control and Water Quality\Erosion Control and Water Quality\Jobs by year\New Work <br /> 18\Orange\The Lodges at Chapel Hill\The Lodges at Chapel Hill COA.docx 4 <br />
