Dear Mr. Proctor:
We have reviewed the modification request your company submitted for the referenced mine site. In order for this
office to complete its review of the referenced project in accordance with N.C.G.S. §74-50 and§74-51 of the Mining
Act of 1971,please provide the additional or revised information in accordance with the following comments:
1. Mining has been indicated in the floodplain. Please provide proof of notice and approval from the
jurisdictional floodplain manager.
2. Please provide proof, such as copy of the signed return receipts from certified mail, that all adjoining
landowners and chief administrative officer of each county and municipality have been properly
notified.
3. Please clearly indicate and label on the mine map the existing site conditions, that include all existing
haul roads and stockpile locations.
4. Please clearly identify and label the mine permit boundary around the entire site. There are several
instances on the mine map where the permit boundary appears broken or jumps from one line to another.
5. Please provide details (height, width) for the vegetated berm along the north side of the permit
boundary. Please clearly show this berm on the map to scale. At the moment the berm only appears
as a line.
6. You have proposed a 50' undisturbed buffer and a 50' unexcavated buffer with a 6' berm on the
proposed southern expansion that would mitigate visual impacts for adjoining landowners along
Bumpy Ln and Woodcroft Ln. Please clarify how you plan to mitigate the visual impacts,dust,etc. for
the adjoining property owners along Burrus Pl.
