SUBJECT: Martin Marietta Materials, Inc.—Garner Quarry
Mining Permit No.92-01
Request for Mining Permit Modification
Dear Mr. Parr:
Enclosed please find Martin Marietta's application to modify Mining Permit Number 95-01 for Garner
Quarry located in Wake County, North Carolina. The application will convert 15 acres of undisturbed
buffer to pit and remove the stormwater control measures the protected the buffer.
The buffered area was removed from the Future Pit area to resolve comment number five on the April
18,2018 request for additional information. Due to timing, Martin Marietta chose to voluntarily buffer
the area, instead of waiting on a stream call. We received the attached Neuse Buffer Determination,
dated August 29,2023 that indicates none of the streams in question are subject to the buffer rules. All
other changes are the result of updated mapping.
Enclosed for your review are:
• One(1) complete original mine permit application package with maps
• Five(5)copies of the application package
• A check for the$750 permit modification fee
If you have any questions please contact me at(919)783-4505 or via email at

C.PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES
1. Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation of the mine and reference the sequence
to the mine map(s).Attach additional sheets as needed.
Pit development is typical for a mature granite quarry. Rock adjacent to the pit is
exposed via stripping of soil. The disturbed area is graded to drain to the pit or
other approved erosion control measures. The sequence of the existing pit,
stripped areas, and future pit is included on the enclosed mine map.
2. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during mining to
prevent offsite sedimentation(include speck plans for sediment and erosion control for mine excavation(s),waste
piles,access/mine roads,and process areas),and give a detailed sequence of installation and schedule for
maintenance of the measures.Locate and label all sediment and erosion control measures on the mine maps)and
provide typical cross-sectionskonstruction details of each measure.Engineering designs and calculations are required
to justify the adequacy of any proposed measures.
Erosion control measures are shown on the attached mine map. Each of these
measures is designed to meet the criteria in the Division's Erosion and Sediment
Control Planning and Design Manual. Details for existing structures have been
previously submitted and approved. New erosion control measures included as
part of this modification are described and detailed in the supporting
documentation.
3. A)Will the operation involve wash in the material mined,recycling process water,or other wastewater handling?
ZYES NO
If yes,briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used.
The mine discharges comingled stormwater and groundwater from the pit. The stormwater includes precipitation that fell
directly into the pit as well as runoff that drained into the pit. Both the stormwater and groundwater accumulate in a sump in
the bottom of the pit,which is pumped out as needed. The pump discharges into a clarification pond prior to leaving the site.
NC NPDES General Permit No.NCG020000 allows the use of chemical flocculants from a list of polymers approved by the
Division of Water Resources. One of these flocculants may be used periodically to maintain water quality.
All process water from washing of material is handled through a closed-loop recycle system of settling ponds.
B)Will the operation involve discharging fresh or wastewater from the mine or plant as a point discharge to the waters
of the State?
EYES FNO
If yes,briefly describe the nature of the discharge and locate all proposed discharge points(along with their method of
stabilization)on the mine map(s).
The site is permitted to discharge pit water, process water, and stormwater by
NC NPDES General Permit No. NCG020000 Certificate of Coverage No.
NCG020086. Mine dewatering wastewater is discharged to unnamed tributary
of Big Branch. Stormwater may be discharged from sediment basins shown on

the proposed mine locale is served by a public water system or private wells.
This site has not historically adversely affected offsite wells.All known well locations within 500 feet of the proposed excavation are
depicted on the site plan. The site is served by several wells,while the locale is served by a combination of the Town of Gamer's
public water system and private wells.
The pit sump accumulates stormwater runoff,precipitation,and groundwater seepage. The amount of groundwater in the pit
discharge is unknown. Most of the discharge is comprised of stormwater. No water is withdrawn from a stream,lake,or river.The pit
discharge is covered by NC NPDES General Permit No.NCG020000 Certificate of Coverage No.NCG020086. The estimated
withdrawal rate is the rate calculated as part of the annual withdrawal rate submitted to the Division of Water Resources.
D)If you answered yes to any of the above questions,provide evidence that you have applied for or obtained the
appropriate water quality permit(s)(i.e.,non-discharge,NPDES,Stormwater,etc.)from the Stormwater Program.In
addition,the applicant is required to register water use with the Division of Water Resources,Ground Water
Management Branch,if the operation withdraws more than 10,000 gallons per day and needs a capacity use permit
from the Division of Water Resources,Ground Water Management Branch,if the operation lies in a capacity use area
and withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day.
The site is permitted to discharge stormwater, process water, and pit water by
NC NPDES General Permit No. NCG020000 Certificate of Coverage No.
NCG020086 and and registered with the Division of Water Resource's Water
Withdrawal Registration Program.
4. A)Will the operation involve crushing or any other air contaminant emissions?

7. Describe other methods to be taken during mining to prevent physical hazard to any neighboring dwelling,house,
public road,or public,commercial or industrial building from any mine excavation.Locate all such structures on the
mine map if they are within 300 feet of any proposed excavation.
The mine excavation will not extend close enough to the property boundaries to cause any
physical damage to offsite buildings or roads. Quarry blasting is designed to prevent excessive
vibrations. Seismograph readings are recorded during each blasting shot. The shots are
typically scheduled,near mid-and will appear similar to distant thunder lasting under a second
from adjacent properties. Blasting typically occurs between one and three times a week.
Structures within 300 feet are shown on the mine map.
8. Describe what kind of barricade will be used to prevent inadvertent public access along any high wall area and when it

nearby roads and homes.
B)Could the operation have a significantly adverse effect on the purposes of a publicly owned park,forest,or
recreation area?If so,how will such effects(i.e.,noise,visibility,etc.)be mitigated?
There are no publicly owned parks, forest or recreation areas adjacent to the
quarry.
11. will ex I sives be used?
X YES F]NO
If yes,specify the types of explosive(s)and describe what precaution(s)wiil be used to prevent physical hazard to
persons or neighboring property from flying rocks or excessive air blasts or ground vibrations.Depending on the mine's
location to nearby structures,more detailed technical information may be required on the blasting program(such as a
third-party blasting study).Locate the nearest offsite occupied structure(s)to the proposed excavation(s)on the mine
map and indicate its approximate distance to the proposed excavation.
Explosives will be utilized for rock extraction. The principal explosive material is ammonium nitrate,which is also commonly used
as a fertilizer. Blasting is conducted by a contractor. No explosives are stored onsite.
A shot pattern is used that minimizes air and ground vibrations and optimizes rock breakage. Energy released via an excess air
blast or ground vibrations is wasted energy. The intent is to make each blast as efficient as possible by reducing wasted energy.
Blasting is expected to occur between one and three times per week and will be appear similar to distant thunder lasting less than
a second.
Permanent records are maintained for each blasting event that include shot pattern,explosives loading,delays,time,and
weather.
12, will fuel tanks,solvents,or other chemical reagents be stored on-site?
AYES FINO
If yes,describe these materials,how they will be stored and method of containment in case of spill.Indicate the
location(s)of all storage facilities on the mine map(s).
Diesel fuel, bulk oil, used oil, and gasoline are stored in containers typical of
industrial operation that often include drums and steel tanks. Petroleum
products are stored in accordance with spill prevention, control, and
countermeasure (SPCC) regulations. An SPCC plan is maintained for the site.
Solvents are handled by a third-party contractor (e.g., Noble Oil).

per affected acre)for each permitted mine site based upon the acreage approved by the Department to be affected during the
life of the mining permit Please insert the approximate acreage for each aspect of the mining operation,that you intend to affect
during the life of this mining permit(in addifion please insert the appropriate reclamation cosf/acre for each category from the
Schedule of Reclamation Costs provided with this application form)OR you can defer to the Department to calculate your bond
for you based upon your maps and standard reclamation costs:
CATEGORY AFFECTED RECLAMATION RECLAMATION

Site Address/Location: 1111 E. Garner Road,Garner, NC 27529
Dear Mr. Brown:
On August 25th, Kevin Fowler conducted an on-site review of features located on the subject property
at the request of Martin Marietta Materials Inc.to determine the applicability of the above-noted state
regulations.Thomas Brown with Marietta Materials Inc.was also present during the site visit.
The Division of Water Resources has determined that streams listed in the table below and identified on
the attached maps are shown on either the most recently published NRCS Soil Survey of Wake County
and/or the USGS National Map at a scale that incorporates the National Hydrography Dataset High
Resolution data at 1:24,000 scale. Streams that are listed as"Subject"on the below table have been
located on the ground at the site and possess characteristics that qualify them to be at least intermittent
streams in accordance with the NC Stream Identification Manual v.4.11 and therefore subject to the
Neuse River Buffer Rules. Please be aware that features identified as"not subject'may be considered
jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers and subject to the Clean Water Act. Please
also be aware that features not identified during this visit are Presumed to be buffered unless a
stream determination has been completed within the oast five years stating otherwise.
