Hello,
I met with Robert Tankard and Chris Pullinger. The MOIL was mentioned. Mr. Tankard says that conditions cannot be
added to the general permit, therefore the permit should not be issued until approval is received.
Mr. Elliott,
Please request that we revisit this site. It is my recommendation that you coordinate with Chris Pullinger prior to
scheduling this visit and copying Jay Edwards and myself with the communications. If all questions are answered and
adequate information to provide understanding is presented on the mine map, such that everybody is on the same page
as much as possible, then we should meet at the site for approval.
Please let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Sincerely,
Thom

Bethany,
Mr. Elliott has provided us the preliminary jurisdictional determination from the Corps of Engineers that we'd requested
to identify if there are proximal wetlands, which there are, but not sufficient detail/data to show how the wetlands will
be protected. Until that information has been provided, please continue to hold the permit.

Hi,Thom,
I know we still have some open questions about review of Pumping D&M Plans by DEMLR/DW R in general, but I wanted
to follow up on this application that has been pending in our office since February. On 4/17 you emailed that Chris
Pullinger was going to check with Robert.Tankard about this one, and you would let me know when you had more
information. Can we proceed with issuing this discharge permit CDC to lames Cahoon Mine? The POM Plan will need to
be approved by the W aRO before dewatering can begin. If you think the applicant is far enough along to understand
what is required for that, we can proceed.
Here is the link to the documents we have in Laserfiche for this application.
Thanks,
Bethany

Hello,
2

I have visited the site, and I did a preliminary review of the O&M plan. Let me touch base with Chris Pullinger again of
DWR, as he had originally commented that a JD may be required.
I have not had significant concerns about this site as it is located out in a farm field which was converted many years
ago, with the discharge directed back into the adjacent wetlands. I have seen standing water historically in the field
ditches which gives me the impression that the water table is within a few feet of the field surface/natural ground. The
Scuppernong River, tributaries and corresponding wetlands are nearly surrounding this area and I do not expect this
operation will dewater wetlands, or other waters of the state.
I will touch base with Chris Pullinger and will let you know of any concerns ASAP.
Thanks,
Thom

Samir or Thom,
I wanted to check in on this mine operation's request for coverage under NCG02 in Columbia,Tyrrell county. I have only
just now picked this one up, and I see they will dewater into nearby wetlands. The consultant (Ken Elliott) contacted
Thom about a Pumping O&M Plan before submittal, and a narrative is included—but at first glance, I see it may be
lacking. There are no calculations or mention of monitoring wells;just some design component details tacked on at the
end and a lot of discussion. It mentions"visual monitoring of adjacent wetlands and farmland for potential dehydration
caused by any mining activity..."
Let me know your thoughts on this one when you have a chance.
Thanks,
Bg

Re: Cahoon Mine
Tyrell County
Pasquotank River Basin
Dear Messrs. Cahoon:
The application for a mining permit for the above referenced mine site has been found
to meet the requirements of G.S. 74-51 of The Mining Act of 1971. As we have received the
required security to cover this application, I am enclosing the mining permit.
The conditions of Mining Permit No. 89-11 were based primarily upon information
supplied in the application with conditions added as necessary to insure compliance with The
Mining Act of 1971. G.S. 74-65 states that the issuance of a mining permit does not
supersede or otherwise affect or prevent the enforcement of any zoning regulation or
ordinance duly adopted by an incorporated city or county or by any agency or department of
the State of North Carolina.
As a reminder, your permitted acreage at this site is 16.97 acres and the amount of
land you are approved to disturb is 14.78 acres.
Please review the permit and contact Judy Wehner, Assistant State Mining Specialist,
at [phone] of any objection or questions concerning the terms of the permit.
Sincerely,
David Miller, PE
State Mining Engineer

Sand Mine
which shall provide that the usefulness, productivity and scenic values of
all lands and waters affected by this mining operation will receive the
greatest practical degree of protection and restoration.

Page 2
In accordance with the application for this mining permit, which is hereby approved by the
Department of Environmental Quality, hereinafter referred to as the Department, and in
conformity with the approved Reclamation Plan attached to and incorporated as part of this
permit, provisions must be made for the protection of the surrounding environment and for
reclamation of the land and water affected by the permitted mining operation. This permit is
expressly conditioned upon compliance with all the requirements of the approved Reclamation
Plan. However, completed performance of the approved Reclamation Plan is a separable
obligation, secured by the bond or other security on file with the Department, and may survive
the revocation or suspension of this permit.
This permit is not transferable by the permittee with the following exception: if another
operator succeeds to the interest of the permittee in the permitted mining operation, by virtue
of a sale, lease, assignment or otherwise, the Department may release the permittee from the
duties imposed upon him by the conditions of his permit and by the Mining Act with reference
to the permitted operation, and transfer the permit to the successor operator, provided that
both operators have complied with the requirements of the Mining Act and that the successor
operator agrees to assume the duties of the permittee with reference to reclamation of the
affected land and posts a suitable bond or other security.
In the event that the Department determines that the permittee or permittee's successor is not
complying with the Reclamation Plan or other terms and conditions of this permit, or is failing
to achieve the purposes and requirements of the Mining Act, the Department may give the
operator written notice of its intent to modify, revoke or suspend the permit, or its intent to
modify the Reclamation Plan as incorporated in the permit. The operator shall have right to a
hearing at a designated time and place on any proposed modification, revocation or
suspension by the Department. Alternatively and in addition to the above, the Department
may institute other enforcement procedures authorized by law.
Definitions
Wherever used or referred to in this permit, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise,
terms shall have the same meaning as supplied by the Mining Act, N.C.G.S. 74-49.
This permit is valid for the life of the site or life of lease, if applicable, as defined by Session
Law 2017-209 and has no expiration date. However, all provisions of GS 74-51 and GS 74-52

Re: Cahoon Mine (Draft Permit)
Tyrell County
Pasquotank River Basin
Dear Mr. Cahoon:
Your application for a mining permit for the above referenced mine site has been
reviewed but not yet approved. Enclosed is a draft of the mining permit proposed by the
Department. The conditions in the draft permit were based primarily upon information
supplied in your application. Other necessary conditions may have been added to ensure
compliance with The Mining Act of 1971 ,
The reclamation bond calculation worksheet submitted with the application has been
verified. The bond amount for this site is $14,300.00. The bond is required before the permit
can be issued. For your convenience, I have enclosed a bond form, an assignment of a
savings account form and an irrevocable standby letter of credit form. The name on the
security form must be the same as the name appearing on the enclosed draft permit, i.e.,
James M. Cahoon. In addition to one of these alternatives you may, upon request, substitute
a cash deposit.
Please review the enclosed draft permit and contact this office should you have any
objections or questions concerning the permit conditions. G.S. 74-51 provides that the
operator has sixty (60) days following the mailing of a notice of the required bond in which to
file the required surety.
The permit cannot be issued until the required security has been received. No mining
may be conducted until the permit is issued. G.S. 74-65 states that the issuance of a mining
permit does not supersede or otherwise affect or prevent the enforcement of any zoning
regulation or ordinance duly adopted by an incorporated city or county or by any agency or
department of the State of North Carolina.

all lands and waters affected by this mining operation will receive the
greatest practical degree of protection and restoration.

Page 2
In accordance with the application for this mining permit, which is hereby approved by the
Department of Environmental Quality, hereinafter referred to as the Department, and in
conformity with the approved Reclamation Plan attached to and incorporated as part of this
permit, provisions must be made for the protection of the surrounding environment and for
reclamation of the land and water affected by the permitted mining operation. This permit is
expressly conditioned upon compliance with all the requirements of the approved Reclamation
Plan. However, completed performance of the approved Reclamation Plan is a separable
obligation, secured by the bond or other security on file with the Department, and may survive
the revocation or suspension of this permit.
This permit is not transferable by the permittee with the following exception: If another
operator succeeds to the interest of the permittee in the permitted mining operation, by virtue
of a sale, lease, assignment or otherwise, the Department may release the permittee from the
duties imposed upon him by the conditions of his permit and by the Mining Act with reference
to the permitted operation, and transfer the permit to the successor operator, provided that
both operators have complied with the requirements of the Mining Act and that the successor
operator agrees to assume the duties of the permittee with reference to reclamation of the
affected land and posts a suitable bond or other security.
In the event that the Department determines that the permittee or permittee's successor is not
complying with the Reclamation Plan or other terms and conditions of this permit, or is failing
to achieve the purposes and requirements of the Mining Act, the Department may give the
operator written notice of its intent to modify, revoke or suspend the permit, or its intent to
modify the Reclamation Plan as incorporated in the permit. The operator shall have right to a
hearing at a designated time and place on any proposed modification, revocation or
suspension by the Department. Alternatively and in addition to the above, the Department
may institute other enforcement procedures authorized by law.
Definitions
Wherever used or referred to in this permit, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise,
terms shall have the same meaning as supplied by the Mining Act, N.C.G.S. 74-49.
This permit is valid for the life of the site or life of lease, if applicable, as defined by Session
Law 2017-209 and'has no expiration date. However, all provisions of GS 74-51 and GS 74-52

Dear Ms. Wehner:
I am writing to you on behalf of James M. Cahoon, mining permit applicant for the James Cahoon Mine in
Tyrrell County, proposed permit #89-1 1. This letter is in response to your letter of March 1 requesting
additional information regarding his application. The issues brought up are addressed as such:
• Request to provide wetland delineation of the site: Wetlands delineation was performed by Doug
Dorman, Atlantic Environmental Consultants LLC, no wetlands were found on mining permit site.
Delineation confirmed by Billy W. Standridge, US Army Corps of Engineers, Preliminary Jurisdictional
Determination, Action ID SAW-2018-00514, copy attached. 1737-ft canal bordering north and east
side of permit area is considered a water of the US under this jurisdictional determination. Canal is
separated from affected area of mine permit area by 60-ft wide undisturbed buffer. No other wetlands
on site.
• Explain safety of 30-ft unexcavated buffer along Swain property boundary (west side of permit
boundary): 30-ft wide buffer will be adequate to protect adjacent property from caving in because the
top edge of the excavation will start 30 feet from the boundary and then slope gently down with a 3:1
or flatter cut slope above the pond water line and a 2:1 or flatter cut slope below the water line.
Unexcavated buffer will contain haul road and I 0-ft wide x 2-ft tall erosion control berm.
Thank you, please let me know if you have any questions.

SUBJECT: Comments on the Mining Permit Application Request for:
James M. Cahoon
.lames Cahoon Mine
Tyrrell County
Please find attached a copy of the mining permit request for the above referenced project.
The James Cahoon Mine located in Tyrrell County does not appear to have an unduly adverse effect
on ground water supplies since dewatering proposed on site is less than 100,000 gallons per day.
However, if the mine starts to withdraw 100,000 gpd of water, they will need to reeister their water
withdrawals with the Division of Water Resources on an annual basis. The registration form may be
obtained from the following link:
http;//www.newater.org/Permits and Registration/Water Withdmwal—and—Transrer—Registration.
Facilities are required to register their water withdrawals in accordance with the North Carolina
General Statute G.S. 143-215.22H. This statute requires any non-agricultural water user who
withdraws 100,000 gallons or more in any one day of ground water or surface water to register and
update withdrawals. This statue also requires transfers of 100,000 gallons or more in any one day of
surface water from one river basin to another river basin to register and update their water transfers.
Water withdrawal registrants must complete the annual water use reporting form by April I for the
previous year.
If you have further questions regarding the water withdrawal registration please contact John Barr
with the Division of Water Resources at (9I9) 707-9021 or email him at [e-mail].

Raleigh Regional Office
THROUGH: Samir Dumpor, Regional Cngineer
Washington Regional Office
FROM: James 13. Edwards, Environmental Specialist
Washington Regional Office
R17: Permit # 89-1 1 (Pending)
Mine Name: James Cahoon Mine
County: Tyrrell
River Basin: Pasquotank
The proposed mine site is located East of Columbia, North Carolina on Hwy 64 East.
The site is a fiat, cultivated field lands and to the North is wooded lands, to the Fast is
wooded lands with wetlands, to the South is Hwy 64, and to the West is cultivated field
lands. There are "blue-line" ditches to the North and Cast of the site that flow to the East
via an existing pump station.
The information submitted requesting a new mine permit with additional information has
been reviewed with the following comments:
I. At the time of the Review Inspection, it appears that the existing pumping
station may be out of commission and/or being repaired. Pump parts were
observed on a trailer in the field near the existing dwelling to the Southeast.
The pump house appeared locked with no access to the interior.
2. This office feels that the proposed 30' wide unexcavated buffer is insufficient
to the West side of the permit boundary close to the NIF Swain property.
3. If the 10' W x 2' T berm were closer to the excavation, (on the other side of
the 30' W Unexcavated Buffer)then that would give a 20' wide maintenance
corridor around the site without possible damage to the proposed unexcavated
buffers. It appears on the Reclamation Map that this is the case,please clarify.
If we can be of any further assistance please advise. 40

Robert,
Please find attached my comment sheet for this project. There are 2 channelized/headwater wetland features
bordering the project, for which I've asked for at least a preliminary JD from the Corps. There was no plan/boundary
sheet in the packet, but I've also asked for an 0&M plan, as wetlands will likely be affected.

A temporary permeable harrier erected on small disturbed areas to capture sediment from sheet flow. It is made of
filter fabric buried at the bottom, stretched and supported by steel posts.
Planning: Silt fence will be installed along the perimeter of a 12ft wide access road when crossing wetland areas.
Narrow width of fenced area will allow only shallow pools to form behind fence while promoting deposition of sediment
and preventing sedimentation into adjacent wetlands. Ends of fence will be curled uphill in "1" pattern to prevent end
flow. Stabilized outlets will be provided to protect the fence system and release storm flow that exceeds the design.
Design considerations: Silt fence will be constructed of extra-strength synthetic filter fabric. Height of fence will not
exceed 2 feet above natural ground level, and will be constructed from a continuous roll to minimize joints. All joints
will be fastened at a support post with 4 feet minimum of overlap. Extra-strength filter fabric will be fastened to road
side of steel posts(installed 2 feet deep)every 6 feet(every 8 feet if using standard strength filter fabric with wire mesh
backing) and fastened with wire ties. Trench will be excavated along inside of fence approximately 4 inches wide by 8
inches deep, into which 12 inches of fabric will be placed along the bottom and side of the trench. `french will be
backfilled and compacted.
Maintenance: Inspect sediment fence every week and after each rainfall. Make any required repairs immediately.
Replace any collapsed, damaged, or decomposed fence promptly. Remove all fencing materials and unstable sediment
deposits and bring the area to grade and stabilize it after the contributing drainage area has been properly stabilized.

PROFILE
CHECK DAM DETAIL
A rock embankment located to capture sediment in a naturally formed drainage feature. The purpose of a rock dam is
to trap sediment on the construction site, and prevent off-site sedimentation in streams,lakes and drainageways.
Planning: Used where it is desirable to have the top of the structure serve as the overflow outlet. A long weir crest is
designed to keep flow depth shallow and discharge velocity low. Inside face of the dam will be covered with gravel to
reduce rate of seepage so that a sediment pool will form during runoff, draining slowly through the dam.
Design considerations:
• Maximum height—weir elevation 6 feet above ditch grade.
• Embankment—top width 2 feet minimum,side slopes maximum 2:2 upstream slope, maximum 3:1 downstream
slope. Rock abutments will extend to an elevation at least 1 foot above the spillway,
• Outlet protection — rock apron minimum 1.5 feet thick will extend downstream from the toe of the dam a
distance equal to the height of the dam to prevent channel erosion.
• Rock fill—rock will be well graded erosion resistant stone with a minimum dsosize of 12 inches, Class II
downstream layer of riprap and Class I upstream layer of riprap.
Maintenance: Check sediment basin after each rainfall, remove sediment when sediment accumulates to M the height
ofthedam. Check structure for erosion or rock displacement weekly or after each significant (1/2 inch or greater)
rainstorm and repair immediately.

DESCRIPTION
A structure in a water management system that conveys water, controls the direction or rate of flow, maintains a desired
water surface elevation or measures water. Water height control structure is standard structure used by agricultural and
horticultural farms in North Carolina to raise or lower water height in ditches and ponds per need (NRCS), Water height
control structure to be installed in the northeast corner of the sedimentation pond berm at the James Cahoon Mine.
Overflow to be directed down stabilized ditch to nearby blue-fine stream, eventual outflow to Scuppernong River and
Albemarle Sound.

0 0
PURPOSE
To convey water from one elevation to a lower elevation within, to, or from a water conveyance system, such as a ditch,
channel, canal, or pipeline designed to operate under open channel conditions. Typical structures: drops, chutes,
turnouts, surface water inlets, head gates, pump boxes, and stilling basins(NRCS). This water management system will
be used to maintain a maximum water surface elevation in the sedimentation pond at the James Cahoon Mine, US 64
East, Columbia, NC. Sedimentation pond is a part of the dewatering management system of the James Cahoon Mine,
used to remove settleable matter and turbidity from mine dewatering wastewater.
CONSTRUCTION
Structure consists of 26' x 3' horizontal galvanized steel culvert running under the sedimentation pond berm. A vertical 6'
half pipe 52" x 30" is attached on the north end of the culvert with stacked flash boards allowing adjustable height of the
water level in the sedimentation pond. Water flows over the flash boards and into the discharge pipe and down the rip-rap
stabilized ditch.
Overflow ditch is lined with riprap for 20 feet down its length. Existing slopes adjacent to the culvert are heavily grassed
with natural grass and weeds with no erosion present.
MAINTENANCE
Structures will be checked and necessary maintenance, including removal of debris, shall be performed after major
storms and at least semi-annually.

Riprap lined apron located at end of mine dewatering overflow pipe to prevent scour and undermining
in existing ditch, and to absorb the impact of the water flow and reduce the velocity to non-erosive
levels, before flow reaches wetlands.
Riprap Apron Size: Overflow pipe discharges directly into well-defined channel. The apron will extend
across the channel bottom and up the channel banks to the top of the bank. Length of apron will be 20-
feet downstream to maintain velocity control of maximum 2.0 feet per second.
Grade: Apron will have zero grade and no overfill at end of apron.
Alignment: Apron will be straight throughout entire length if possible. If curve is necessary to align the
apron with the receiving channel, the curve will be located in the upstream section of the riprap.
Materials: Riprap will consist of a well graded mixture of NCDOT Class A (2" to 6") stone or slag.
Thickness: Minimum thickness of riprap will be 1.5 times the maximum stone diameter.

® O
Filter: Operator plans to install a layer of heavy duty silt fence filter cloth between the riprap and the
underlying soil to prevent soil movement into or through the riprap. Filter cloth will extend to the top of
both channel banks, and edges will overlap 12 inches. Upstream end will be buried 12 inches and
downstream end will be buried if necessary.
Maintenance: inspect riprap outlet structures weekly and after significant rainfall events to see if any
erosion around or below the riprap has taken place, or if stones have become dislodged. Repair all
damage immediately. Maintain all vegetation adjacent to the channel in healthy condition to prevent
scour or erosion during out-of-bank flow. Control weeds and brush growing in the riprap by cutting.

Berm Construction Details
James Cahoon Mine
Columbia, NC
Tyrrell County
Narrow-based berm
The narrow-based berm is the most common berm having a top of 2 feet (0.6 m)and side slopes of two
horizontal: I vertical.This berm is the most economical to build as it requires the least material. The
steep side slopes of this type of berm eliminate the possibility of working on it with farm machinery.

i
I
NEW BERM EYISf(NGfl) I
GRADE
Berm Construction
The berm construction comprises of the scraping back of the topsoil from the area where the berm and
storage basin is to be built. A subsoil material, free of stones, rubble, stumps etc. and with at least 10%
clay should be used to construct the berm. The material for the berm may be obtained from the area
behind or in front of the berm location or moved from a borrow pit located elsewhere on the farm. An
earth mover will be required to move material from a pit located a distance away while a bulldozer
would be used if material is located in the berm area.
The berm material is to be placed in layers and compacted as each layer is added. After the berm has a
final shape the sides of the berm should also be compacted.
Emergency Overflow
To provide for larger-than designed peak flows, an overflow system is used, namely:
• "The level-top vegetated berm crest" which provides for very flat berm top so that the water will
overflow along the berm length in a thin layer so as not to create erosion problems.

Temporary Seeding Details
Practice Standards and Specifications 6.10
James Cahoon Mine
US 64 East, Columbia,NC
Tyrrell County
Definition: Planting rapid-growing annual grasses, small grains, or legumes to
provide initial, temporary cover for erosion control on disturbed areas.
Purpose: To temporarily stabilize denuded areas that will not be brought to final
grade for a period of more than 21 calendar days.
Temporary seeding controls runoff and erosion until permanent
vegetation or other erosion control measures can be established.
Planning Considerations: Temporary seeding provides protection for no more than 1 year, during
which time permanent stabilization should be initiated.
Specifications: Complete grading before preparing seedbeds, and install all necessary erosion
control practices. If soils become compacted during grading, loosen them to a
depth of 6-8 inches.
SEEDBED PREPARATION
Good seedbed preparation is essential to successful plant establishment. A good
seedbed is well pulverized, loose, and uniform.
Liming—Apply lime according to soil test recommendations. Apply limestone
uniformly and incorporate into the top 4-6 inches of soil. Soils with a pH of 6 or
higher need not be limed.
Fertilizer—Base application rates on soil tests. Incorporate into the top 4-6
inches of soil. If a hydraulic seeder is used, do not mix seed and fertilizer more
than 30 minutes before application.
Surface Roughening—Groove or furrow slopes steeper than 3:1 on the contour
before seeding. '
PLANT SELECTION
Select an appropriate species or species mixture for seeding in late winter and
early spring.

® 9
SEEDING
Evenly apply seed using a cyclone seeder (broadcast), drill, cultipacker seeder,
or hydroseeder. Hand broadcasting is not recommended because of the
difficulty in achieving a uniform distribution. Small grains should be planted no
more than 1 inch deep, and grasses and legumes no more than 1/2 inch.
MULCHING
The use of an appropriate mulch will help ensure establishment under normal
conditions, and is essential to seeding success under harsh site conditions. If the
area being mulched is subject to concentrated waterflow, as in channels,
anchor mulch with netting.
Maintenance: Reseed and mulch areas where seedling emergence is poor, or where
erosion occurs, as soon as possible. Do not mow. Protect from traffic as
much as possible.

Permanent Seeding Details- Berm
Practice Standards and Specifications 6.11
James Cahoon Mine
US 64 East,Columbia,NC
Tyrrell County
Definition: Controlling runoff and erosion on disturbed areas by establishing perennial vegetative
cover with seed. Purpose being to reduce erosion and decrease sediment yield from disturbed areas, to
permanently stabilize such areas in a manner that is economical, adapts to site conditions,and allows
selection of the most appropriate plant materials.
Application: Areas to be stabilized with permanent vegetation must be seeded or planted within 15
working days or 90 calendar days after final grade is reached, unless temporary stabilization is applied.
Soil preparation: Complete all final grading of berm and loosen any compacted soils. Apply lime
and fertilizer according to soil test recommendations. Groove or furrow slopes on the contour before
seeding.
Vegetation: For immediate stabilization of disturbed soil, use nurse crop varieties, along with
temporary mulching. Then seed with varieties providing cover for up to 3 years with a maintenance
program, leading toward varieties providing permanent coverage.
Seeding: Evenly apply seed using a cyclone seeder (broadcast), drill, cultipacker seeder, or
hydroseeder. Hand broadcasting is not recommended because of the difficulty in achieving a uniform
distribution. Small grains should be planted no more than 1 inch deep, and grasses and legumes no
more than 1/2 inch.
Mulching: The use of appropriate mulch will help ensure establishment under normal conditions,
and is essential to seeding success under harsh site conditions. If the area being mulched is subject to
concentrated waterflow, as in channels, anchor mulch with netting.
Maintenance: Reseed and mulch areas where seedling emergence is poor, or where erosion occurs, as
soon as possible. Do not mow. Protect from traffic as much as possible
