The proposed permit area is in a flat, sandy, cultivated farm area, and will not present any problems regarding runoff to adjacent areas as the current permit area has full erosion and sediment control measures in place. The purpose of the modification is to add 1.35 acres to the current 3.66 acres of permitted excavation. The excavation area is located geographically 1575 feet from the nearest public highway and is accessible only by a privately-owned and gated access road. Excavation activities are screened from public view on all sides by existing full growth woodland,vegetated sand berms, and distance across adjacent fields. There will be minimum 25ft wide unexcavated buffers on all sides of the permit area, minimum 50ft wide undisturbed buffers between mining activity and adjacent wetlands, and a minimum 25ft wide visual screen of existing woodland around the permit area. Upon receipt of the approved permits from NCDEQ, Dirt Boys Company plans to excavate the pond to an average depth of 15 feet below normal high groundwater level and will include construction of proper cut slopes on all sides of the excavated area, as required in the permit. Reclamation of the permit area will include grading, leveling, and grassing of all affected areas. The permit is requested for a 10-year period. Land entry agreements have been obtained. The excavation area will be well marked with warning and keep out signs to prevent inadvertent public access. Dirt Boys Company does hereby request approval for this Mining Permit modification and asks that it be expedited as soon as possible. Dirt Boys Company appreciates your consideration of this mining permit application.
