miles past where HWY 74 crosses the Pee Dee River. Proceed down the dirt road. The office/scale house is
the light colored building on the right. Be mindful of truck traffic.
2) Safety Considerations
Standard DAQ safety equipment, as well as safety vest. Watch for trains at the railroad tracks just before
entering property,as well as large trucks and loaders while on site.
3) Facility and General Description
B.V.Hedrick Sand and Gravel is a granite mining operation. This facility is permitted under Air Permit No.
09572R04, effective 10 June 2015 until 31 May 2023.Mike Thomas conducted the last inspection on 11
May 2017.
B.V.Hedrick Gravel and Sand Company is a mining facility that primarily produces sand for
commercial use and is permitted for crushing gravel. This facility is a quarry which extracts mainly j
granite from the earth.The granite and crushed stone products are loosened by drilling and blasting,
and then are loaded by power shovel or front-end loader into large haul trucks that transport the
material to the processing operations.Primary operations include a jaw,which is used for initial
crusher reduction,and a series of conveyors. This crusher product is next fed through a grizzly feeder
for undersize material, and then is discharged onto a conveyor,where it goes through more screening
processes,until it is conveyed to a surge pile for temporary storage or sold as coarse aggregate. The
finest product is sold to customers,who then bag and sell the"sand,"which is used mainly in small
aquariums. Crushers,conveyors and power screens are all electric,with generators powered by diesel
engines. There are no emergency generators.
The activity at the site is related to B.V. Hedrick's sand mining operation. The sand mining operation does
not require an Air Permit. All sand operations are water-suppressed. j

5) Inspection Conference
On 17 April 2018 I,Mike Thomas,of FRO DAQ conducted a compliance inspection of the B.V.
Hedrick Gravel and Sand Company. I met with Tim Jones,Plant Superintendent and Facility
Contact. We discussed the following:
a) Verified the FACFINDER. No changes are necessary.
b) Mr.Jones stated that the facility continues to focus on the sand mining operation and has no
intention of operating the granite mining and crushing operation.The facility does intend to
keep its air permit.
