North Carolina Construction
Stormwater Inspections
North Carolina's NCG010000 Construction General Permit was renewed in April 2024 and is administered by NCDEQ's Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources. The state also issues NCG25 for projects not subject to the state sediment program. North Carolina's varied terrain from mountains to coast and high-intensity hurricane rainfall events require robust erosion and sediment control programs.
