This permit does not allow discharges that will violate water quality standards in the downstream
waters. Those waters contain sensitive species that could be displaced or distressed by a large
volume of the discharge and also contain shellfish species, which if contaminated and eaten by
humans, could result in serious adverse health effects. Therefore, any time the discharge may be
large enough to exceed the 50 percent mixing ratio with the receiving waters, it is important to
reduce the volume of release to protect public health and the environment.
This project is located in one of North Carolina's 20 coastal counties. Coastal Stormwater
management rules (15A NCAC 2H .1000) may require an additional State Stormwater Permit
(different from the NPDES mining activities discharge permit). Please contact Brian Lambe in the
Wilmington Regional Office at (910)-796-7215 to determine if you will be required to submit an
application for a State Stormwater permit.
Please take notice that this certificate of coverage is not transferable except upon approval of the
Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources (Division). The Division may require modification
or revocation and reissuance of the certificate of coverage.
This permit does not affect the legal requirements to obtain other permits which may be required
by the Division of Water Resources, the Coastal Area Management Act, or any other federal or local
government permit that may be required.
If you have any questions concerning this permit, please contact Michael McIoy at teleplione number
[phone] or by email [e-mail].
Sincerely,
for Brian Wrenn, Director
Division of Energy, Mineral and Land Resources
