NCDEQ Permit Application
Onslow County Special Use Permit Application
Dear Mr.Parr,
On behalf of Mr.James Lane and Mrs. Hilary Maready,we are submitting a mining permit
application on the subject permit boundary totaling approximately 19.3 acres. The affected acreage
or bonded acreage will be 7.0 acres,as most of the 19 acres is mapped as wetlands. We have
submitted the wetland maps and documents to the USCAE for a Preliminary jurisdiction
Determination (PJD). We have since understood there maybe some changes to how isolated
wetlands are considered by the State of NC and USACE. It is our understating from our consultant
that the wetlands would be unregulated as these wetlands are isolated by definition. However,
given the unknown status of the rules,we applied a 50-ft setback to the mapped wetland line as
shown,and shown an affected acreage of To acres total.
There is one access off US 17 for this mine. The mining operation is setup for a io-yr term and it
will be reclaimed as a recreation lake and farmland for the owners. We were just approved by the
Onslow County Board of Adjustment and Planning Staff with a Special Use Permit for the mine.
Please review the application and mine maps and let us know if you have any questions or need
additional information.
Regards;
