Civil Engineering across North Carolina
North Carolina's NPDES construction stormwater program is administered by the NC Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ), with the NCG01 construction general permit covering most land-disturbing activity. Driveway and access permits on state roads go through the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT). Coastal development also answers to CAMA waterfront permitting, and the mountains add steep-slope and landslide considerations.
Engineering practice in North Carolina is regulated by the North Carolina Board of Examiners for Engineers and Surveyors. Individual licensure and firm certificates of authorization are both required. A North Carolina-licensed PE must seal engineering documents submitted for permits.
North Carolina enforces the North Carolina Energy Conservation Code for commercial buildings, based on the International Energy Conservation Code and ASCE/ASHRAE/IES Standard 90.1. It is adopted statewide and enforced by local inspection departments.
City and county inspection departments handle permits and plan review under the statewide North Carolina State Building Code. Coastal jurisdictions add CAMA and floodplain review, mountain counties add steep-slope scrutiny, and the large metros run electronic review with published submittal standards.
