Erosion Control Closeout Process

When all land disturbances have been completed, and the disturbed areas have been permanently stabilized, the erosion control permit is eligible for closeout.

When the County closes out the local erosion control permit, the County’s closeout documentation can be submitted to NCDEQ to closeout coverage under NCG01.

To close out the County’s erosion control permit, please complete these steps:

1. Complete the Project Closeout Request for Erosion Control form
2. Include a copy of the Johnston County Erosion Control Permit(s) being requested to close out.
3. Include a copy of the latest Self-Inspection Report for the area(s) being requested to be closed out. If self-inspection reports are not included, the permit will not be closed out.
4. The self-inspection should confirm the following items have been completed prior to requesting a permit closeout inspection. If the items below are not completed as applicable, the permit will not be closed out.
• All areas must have permanent vegetation established
• The site must be in compliance with all environmental permits
• Any lot level drainage swales must be in place and stabilized
• Any permanent drainage easements must be in place and stabilized
• Any SCM’s or other stormwater measures have been converted, stabilized and bonded.
