Sullins Director May 20, 2011 Subject: General Permit No. NCG020000 Norman Sand Pit COC NCCO20790 Tyrrell County Dee Freeman Secretary In accordance with your application for a discharge permit received on April 1, 2011, we are forwarding herewith the subject certificate of coverage to discharge under the subject state — NPDES general permit. This permit is issued pursuant to the requirements of North Carolina General Statute 143-215.1 and the Memorandum of Agreement between North Carolina and the US Environmental Protection Agency dated October 15, 2007 (or as subsequently amended). Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except after notice to the Division of Water Quality. The Division of Water Quality may require modification or revocation and reissuance of the certificate of coverage. Please be aware that mine dewatering at your site has the potential to impact adjacent wetlands. The specific requirements for mine dewatering at facilities near wetlands can be found in Part III, Section E of your permit. You must have an approved Operation and Monitoring Plan before mine dewatering dischary_es occur at your facility. Discharging mine dewatering wastewater without Plan approval will be subject to enforcement action. An Operation and Monitoring Plan for your facility must be submitted to the Washington Regional Office within 60 days of your receipt of this permit. Contact Al Hodge at the Washington Regional Office at (252) 946-6481 for more information about the approval process. Please note that mine dewatering wastewater includes wet pit overflows caused solely by direct rainfall and groundwater seepage for this type of mining operation. Any discharge of this water (and any stormwater commingled with it) is subject to the effluent limitations in this permit. This general permit allows the discharge of stormwater and certain types of wastewater from your facility. In your application, you specified that only mine dewatering water would be discharged from this facility. If separate point -source discharges of stormwater occur (i.e., stormwater not combined with mine dewatering water), you will be required to adhere to the conditions in this permit for stormwater discharges.

Outfall 2 showed a TSS reading of 140mg/L. This TIER 1 Response is to document the failure at Outfall #2 as required by the NCDENR NCGO8000 Stormwater permit associated with this facility. Inspection: Marcus Hackler, Environmental Coordinator for Rea Contracting visited the site after results were received on 10-25-10. Upon inspection of the outfall it was concluded that possible reason for high TSS could be due to a rough edge between the asphalt and the grass that leads to the outfall. It is our belief that the thawag of water running to this outfall collects sediment from this rough edge before entering the discharge area. This scenario could potentially increase the TSS load of the sample. Corrective Action: To correct this problem, we will add a check dam in front of outfall 2 for filtering. Marcus W.

We've received an NOI from Thomas D. Norman for his sand mine in Coluiubia (Tyrrell County) for coverage under NCG02 (Mining SW/WW permit). The site discharges stormwater and mine dewatering water into Bull Bay (SB) through a settling basin. The NOI is attached. Their Mining Permit expired — 89-07 and they have applied to get a new one. They say they are not impacting wetlands but on the aerial photograph it looks pretty wooded there. So basically I have two questions for you all: 1. Are you alright with them discharging into SB waters? 2. Do you all think they need an O&M plan and are you all concerned about potential impacts to wetlands? Does the Washington Regional Office have any concerns about issuing this facility a COC for this general permit, and are there any potential impacts to wetlands? If we don't receive any objections, we'll issue the COC in 30 days. I've sent along the NOI copy and map copy to your RO. Have a good weekend!

We've received an NOI from Thomas D. Norman for his sand mine in Columbia (Tyrrell County) for coverage under NCG02 (Mining SW/WW permit). The site discharges stormwater and mine dewatering water into Bull Bay (SB) through a settling basin. The NOI is attached. Their Mining Permit expired — 89-07 and they have applied to get a new one. They say they are not impacting wetlands but on the aerial photograph it looks pretty wooded there. So basically I have two questions for you all: 1. Are you alright with them discharging into SB waters? 2. Do you all think they need an O&M plan and are' you all concerned about potential impacts to wetlands? Does the Washington Regional Office have any concerns about issuing this facility a COC for this general permit, and are there any potential impacts to wetlands? If we don't receive any objections, we'll issue the COC in 30 days. I've sent along the NOI copy and map copy to your RO. Have a good weekend!

Recycle systems that do not meet those criteria are considered discharging stems and mare to the NCG020000 discharge permit. **To obtain 7Q10 flows, permittees must contact the DWQ Stormwater Permitting Unit. If DWQ does not have a flow estimate fora specific stream, permittees will be asked to obtain one. Permiffees should contact J.

ATC requests must be submitted at least 90 days prior to construction'. For exi_ •stin_g mining sites that require an Authorization to Operate (ATO) wastewater treatment facilities: This NOI is also an APPLICATION FOR an ATO for wastewater treatment facilities in place. Construction, modification, _orinstallation of any new treatment components at an existing site requires an ATC. (If the site is already covered by NCG020000, the ATC request may be submitted without an NOI). Some wastewater treatment facilities used to treat or recycle wastewater at mining sites will require an ATC riot to construction per 15A NCAC 2H .0138. Please see the NCG020000 General Permit for details about which treatment facilities require an ATC (summarized in Table 1 below). The authorization to construct or continue to operate will be issued at the same time as the Certificate of Coverage (COC) for the NCG02 permit. Design of treatment facilities must comply with requirements of 15A NCAC 2H .0138 & .0139. Construction of wastewater treatment facilities subject to the ATC/ATO requirements in the NCG02 permit at new or existing mining sites requires submission of three (3) sets of plans and specifications signed Page 1 of 9 'As per 15A NCAC 2H .0106 Unless treatment facilities are designed, constructed, and put into operation by employees internal to the company who are qualified to perform such work for their respective companies in accordance with General Statutes, 89C-25 (7), plans and specifications must be signed and sealed by a P.E.
