Wake One Water Plan -We Need Your Voice! |
|
Do you and your business depend on water? We need your voice!
Most businesses try to plan for possible recessions, rising rents or employee shortages. But, when many think about risk, few consider water. Yet, with Wake County’s population surging and weather and climate becoming increasingly unpredictable, having an abundant supply of clean and affordable water to run your business can’t be taken for granted.
That’s why Wake County’s Water Quality Division is hard at work on a plan to ensure all our businesses and residents have enough clean water for the community over the next 50 years. The plan we’re crafting will touch on all aspects of our lives, including how we manage residential and commercial development, transportation and natural resources.
Please join us on Thursday, March 30, at 9 a.m. for a virtual discussion about Wake County’s One Water Plan. You’ll join other business leaders concerned about water use, water supply and water quality.

Reminder: Single Family Lot Process for Grading Permit Issuance |
|
Builders and developers of single family dwellings in a common plan of development (subdivision) are required to have a land disturbance permit, even if the disturbance is less than 1 acre. Builders outside of a subdivision shall obtain a land disturbance permit if the disturbance is equal to or greater than 1 acre. Once you have received an approval letter for your erosion control plan, remember that you still have a few more steps to take before you can start construction! The process is described on our website, but also summarized below:
1. Obtain your letter of approval from the Wake County plan reviewer. Read it carefully
for any special conditions of approval. These must be met before a preconstruction
meeting can be held.
2. Obtain NCG01 Coverage from NCDEQ. See link below:
3. Upload a copy of the NCG01 Certificate of Coverage to the SEC permit in the
4. Contact your Environmental Consultant for the required preconstruction meeting – their name and phone number will be in your approval letter. This precon is generally held over the
phone for lot construction.
5. The Environmental Consultant will issue the SEC permit, and the permit status in the
County’s portal will change from approved to issued.
6. Install the erosion control measures shown on the approved plan (construction
entrance, silt fence, etc.).
SEC permit in the portal. Your Environmental Consultant will receive an automatic
notification that this has been done.
Now you are ready to proceed with construction!
