Re: permit No. 65-05

Dear Keith Stark:
According to our records, the mining permit for the above referenced mine will expire on
December 14, 2005.
GS 74-52 provides that the permit may be renewed at any time during the two years prior to its
expiration. The procedure to be followed and standards to be applied in renewing a permit shall
be the same as those for issuing a permit.
To apply for permit renewal, you must complete Item Nos. 1-5 of the enclosed Renewal of
Mining permit Checklist (revised 1 1/2001). Also enclosed is one copy of the mining permit
application form for your use. Please be sure to indicate any changes in the mining and/or
reclamation plan. Four (4) copies of all requested information must be forwarded to the Land
Quality Section's Central Office at the address located on the cover of the application form. All
permits for unreclaimed sites should be renewed. If it is your intent to reclaim and release this
site, the renewal will not be necessary. If this is the case, no further mining should be conducted
and reclamation should begin immediately. It is further requested that you notify this office in
writing of your intent to reclaim and release the site.
It is recommended that you submit the above information for renewal of your mining permit at
least 90 days prior to the permit's expiration date in order to allow the Department enough time to
complete its review of your request before the permit expires. If you allow the permit to expire
before submitting a request for renewal as per the above Checklist, you must immediately cease
mining on and after the expiration date and complete reclamation of the site. Mining without a
permit is subject to a $5,000 per day civil penalty. After the expiration date, approval of a new
mining permit application will be required before mining may continue.
Thank you for your cooperation.

MINING PERMIT EXPIRATION DATE: August 10 2016

Page 2
In accordance with the application for this mining permit, which is hereby approved by the
Department of Environment and Natural Resources, 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 expiration, 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.

This permit shall be subject to the provisions of the Mining Act, N.C.G.S. 74-46, et. seq., and
to the following conditions and limitations:
OPERATING CONDITIONS:
1. A. Any wastewater processing or mine dewatering shall be in accordance with the
permitting requirements and rules promulgated by the N.C. Environmental
Management Commission.
B. Any stormwater runoff from the affected areas at the site shall be in accordance
with any applicable permit requirements and regulations promulgated by the
Environmental Protection Agency and enforced by the N.C. Environmental
Management Commission. It shall be the permittee's responsibility to contact
the Division of Water Quality to secure any necessary stormwater permits or
other approval documents.
2. A. Any mining process producing air contamination emissions shall be subject to
the permitting requirements and rules promulgated by the N.C. Environmental
Management Commission and enforced by the Division of Air Quality.
B. During mining operations, water trucks or other means that may be necessary
shall be utilized to prevent dust from leaving the permitted area.
3. A. Sufficient buffer (minimum 15 foot undisturbed) shall be maintained between any
affected land and any adjoining waterway or wetland to prevent sedimentation of
that waterway or wetland from erosion of the affected land and to preserve the
integrity of the natural watercourse or wetland.
B. Any mining activity affecting waters of the State, waters of the U. S., or wetlands
shall be in accordance with the requirements and regulations promulgated and
enforced by the N. C. Environmental Management Commission.

Page 4
4. A. Adequate mechanical barriers including but not limited to diversions, earthen
dikes, check dams, sediment retarding structures, rip rap pits, or ditches shall be
provided in the initial stages of any land disturbance and maintained to prevent
sediment from discharging onto adjacent surface areas or into any lake, wetland
or natural watercourse in proximity to the affected land.
B. All drainage from the affected area around the mine excavation shall be diverted
internal to said excavation.
C. The recycling and processing facility are not considered part of the permitted or
affected acreage of this permit. Said facility will be regulated under the
Sedimentation Pollution Control Act until it is permanently stabilized.
D. Mining activities shall occur as indicated on the Sand Mine Plan dated December
2005 and received by the Land Quality Section on June 9, 2006.
5. All mining permit boundaries (81 acres) shall be permanently marked at the site on 100-
foot intervals unless the line of sight allows for larger spacing intervals.
6. The angle for graded slopes and fills shall be no greater than the angle, which can be
retained by vegetative cover or other adequate erosion control measure, structure, or
device. In any event, exposed slopes or any excavated channels, the erosion of which
may cause off-site damage because of siltation, shall be planted or otherwise provided
with ground cover, devices or structures sufficient to restrain such erosion.
7. The affected land shall be graded so as to prevent collection of pools of water that are,
or likely to become, noxious or foul. Necessary structures such as drainage ditches or
conduits shall be constructed or installed when required to prevent such conditions.
8. A. Existing vegetation or vegetated earthen berms shall be maintained between the
mine and public thoroughfares whenever practical to screen the operation from
the public.
B. The berm along the northwestern permit boundary shall be constructed as
indicated on the mine map dated July 22, 1992.
9. Sufficient buffer (minimum 10 foot unexcavated) shall be maintained between any
excavation and any mining permit boundary to protect adjacent property.
10. A. No on-site disposal of refuse or other solid waste that is generated outside of the
mining permit area shall be allowed within the boundaries of the mining permit
area unless authorization to conduct said disposal has first been obtained from
both the Division of Waste Management and the Land Quality Section,
Department of Environment and Natural Resources. The method of disposal
shall be consistent with the approved reclamation plan.

Page 5
B. Mining refuse as defined by G.S. 74-49 (14) of The Mining Act of 1971
generated on-site and directly associated with the mining activity may be
disposed of in a designated refuse area. All other waste products must be
disposed of in a disposal facility approved by the Division of Waste
Management. No petroleum products, acids, solvents or their storage containers
or any other material that may be considered hazardous shall be disposed of
within the permitted area.
C. For the purposes of this permit, the Division of Land Resources considers the
following materials to be "mining refuse" (in addition to those specifically listed

1. the approximate boundaries and size of the refuse disposal area;
2. a list of refuse items to be disposed;
3. verification that a minimum of 4 feet of cover will be provided over the
refuse;
4. verification that the refuse will be disposed at least 4 feet above the
seasonally high water table; and,
5. verification that a permanent vegetative groundcover will be established.
11. An Annual Reclamation Report shall be submitted on a form supplied by the
Department by February 1 of each year until reclamation is completed and approved.
12. The operator shall notify the Department in writing of the desire to delete, modify or
otherwise change any part of the mining, reclamation, or erosion/sediment control plan
contained in the approved application for a mining permit or any approved revision to it.
Approval to implement such changes must be obtained from the Department prior to
on-site implementation of the revisions.
13. A. The security, which was posted pursuant to N.C.G.S. 74-54 in the form of a
$75,000.00 bond, is sufficient to cover the operation as indicated in the approved
application. This security must remain in force for this permit to be valid. The
total affected land shall not exceed the bonded acreage.

Page 6
B. This permit and corresponding reclamation bond shall cover the "sliver" of
affected land located across the lake from the plant until said area is established
with revegetation and released by the Department. The permit and bond shall
not cover the recycling and processing facility outside as indicated in Operating
Condition No. 4C.
14. A. Authorized representatives of the Division of Archives and History shall be
granted access to the site to determine the presence of significant
archaeological resources.
B. Pursuant to N. C. G. S. 70 Article 3, "The Unmarked Human Burial and Human
Skeletal Remains Protection Act," should the operator or any person in his
employ encounter human skeletal remains, immediate notification shall be

The Cholesterol Connection
by Sally Wadyka for MSN Health &Fitness
Freelance
There's no denying that a healthy diet is the first line of defense against rising cholesterol. "If you eat a predominantly
plant-based diet—with lots of fruits and vegetables plus some fish—you are on the right track to keeping your
cholesterol at a healthy level,"says Lisa Dorfman, a registered dietitian and spokeswoman for the American Dietetic
Association.That said,certain so-called super-foods can actually help lower bad cholesterol and/or increase the good
cholesterol. Ideally, you want to shoot for total cholesterol under 200, with LDL(the bad one) under 110 and HDL(the
good one)greater than 35.
Try to incorporate more of these foods into your daily diet:
Almonds: Studies have found that eating just a quarter cup of almonds a day can lower your LDL by 4A percent,
according to dietitian Leslie Bond,who is also the director of sports nutrition at University of Pittsburgh Medical Center.
"Eating nuts, especially almonds,which are high in good-for-you monounsaturated fat, is better than simply eating a
low-fat snack like pretzels,"says Bond. Of course, they can also be high in calories, so stick with a small serving and
choose almonds that are dry roasted without oil.
Oatmeal: You've seen the commercials with people proclaiming dramatic drops in their cholesterol numbers thanks to
a daily serving of this hot cereal.Those great results are due to the high levels of soluble fiber found in oatmeal. "The
soluble fiber binds to the bile acids that are the precursor to the development of cholesterol and help flush it out,"
explains Bond. It doesn't matter how you get your oats—those instant,just-add-water packets are just as good for you
as traditional,slow-cooked versions.
Fish: Omega-3 fatty_acids are widely considered to be the best of the"good"fats, and the best place to find them is in
fish—especially fatty fishes like salmon, halibut and tuna.According to Dorfman of the ADA, you want to get 1.5 to 3
grams per day of omega-3. A 4-ounce piece of salmon will give you close to 3 grams, and you can also get these fatty
acids from walnuts and flaxseed (two tablespoons of flaxseed provides 3.5 grams) and in fish oil supplements.
Red wine: Not everything that's good for you has to feel virtuous. A glass of red wine, which contains flavanols, has
been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties that may help lower cholesterol and stave off heart disease. But in
this case, more is definitely not better. "For women, the recommendation is one drink a day and for men It's two,"says
Bonci. More than that will, literally, dilute any potential benefits.These flavanols can also be found in red grape juice
and dark cocoa.
Soy: Soybeans, soy nuts and edamame, plus any products made from soy(like tofu, soymilk, etc.) can help to reduce
the production of new cholesterol. A little can go a long way—aim for about 25 grams of soy protein a day(the amount
in a cup of edamame). And those who are at an increased risk of breast or prostate cancer may want to skip it since too
much of soy's phyto-estrogens can act similarly to the body's own estrogen (which has been shown to feed some
hormone-dependent tumors).
Now that you know the good stuff to add to your diet,try to reduce—or better yet,eliminate—these bad-for-you foods
from your repertoire:
Whole-milk dairy products: Saturated fat, which clogs arteries and increases LDL levels, is the No. 1 cholesterol-
boosting culprit. And foods like ice cream and cheese are where you're likely to find them. Swap out the Ben &lerry's
Chubby Hubby for a lower-fat frozen yogurt, and skip the brie in favor of something less rich, like a part-skim
mozzarella.
Processed meats: Bacon,sausage, liverwurst and the like are also wonderful sources of artery-clogging saturated fat.
Look for lower-fat options, like bacon and sausage made from turkey and other lean protein sources.
Fast-food fries: Even worse than saturated fats are the dreaded trans fats."You might as well take a gun and shoot
yourself!"says Dorfman. The main source of trans fats are partially hydrogenated oils,and that's exactly what most
fast-food restaurants are still using to cook their fries.Trans fats hit cholesterol with a double whammy—in addition to
raising your LDL,they simultaneously lower your HDL.
http://health.msn.com/print.aspx?cp-docLimentid=l 00140710 8/l/2006

Title] Page 2 of 2
Tropical oils: Palm kernel and coconut oils are two of the fattiest of oils-100 percent of the bad-for-you saturated
variety. Don't use them when you cook at home, and try to avoid them when you eat out(most fast-food restaurants
have eliminated them, but you can check their Web sites for detailed nutritional information). Use heart-healthy mono-
and polyunsaturated fats, like olive, canola and safflower oil, instead.
Baked goods: Many manufacturers of packaged cookies and cakes have eliminated trans fats from their recipes, but
check the nutrition labels to be sure. But all baked goods—even those that are homemade—are high in saturated fats,
thanks to the butter and shortening. Since no one wants to give up dessert completely, eat high-fat baked goods only
occasionally, opting more often for low-fat sweets like sorbets.

maintained road. I included the Wood waste Treatment and Processing area
within the permitted boundary, but did not include this acreage in the affected
area since it is not functioning as part of the mine operation. If you feel this area
needs to be included within the affected area, I will revise the plans to reflect this
change.
As always your assistance with this project is greatly appreciated and
please call me if you have questions or desire additional information.

Dear Mr. Stark:
We have reviewed the renewal request submitted for the referenced mine site.
However, the following information is needed to continue processing your application:
1. Please revise the mine map with a new permitted/affected acreage boundary.
The permitted/affected acreage boundary must encompass the treatment and
processing facility, the mine office and truck scales, the haul road to its junction
with a state maintained road, mine excavation area(s), buffer areas, and any
other affected acreage associated with mining activities on-site.
2. Please recalculate the affected acreage chart (page 5, attached) with the new
acreage totals based on the revised mine map.
Please be advised that our review cannot be completed until all of the items listed
above have been fully addressed. In addition, please note the Land Quality Section may
request additional information, not included in this letter, as the mining application review
progresses.
In order to complete the processing of your application, please forward two (2) copies of
the requested information to my attention at the following address:

MEMORANDUM
TO: Brenda M. Harris
Land Quality Section
NCDLR {�
FROM: Steven H. Everhart, PhD 4:67A 1 —
Southeastern Permit Coordinator
Habitat Conservation Program
DATE: January 5,2006
SUBJECT: Application to Renew Mining Permit#65-05 for Wilmington Materials—AD Cameron Pit—New
Hanover County
Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC)have reviewed the subject
application for impacts to wildlife and fishery resources. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions
of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act(48 Stat.401,as amended; 16 U.S.C.661 et.seq.),and the North Carolina
Mining Act of 1971 (as amended, 1982: G.S. 74-76 et seq., 15 NCAC 5).
The applicant is requesting authorization to renew permit#65-05 for the purpose of mining sand from 83.0 acres
located approximately 0.2 mile west of the Northeast Cape Fear River,off US 421 in New Hanover County.
Expected mine depth is 40 feet as measured from the haul road level with an average depth of 35 feet. The applicant
states that a 25 foot buffer will be maintained around the 83 acres and that no wetlands are in the area to be
disturbed. Final reclamation will result in a lake left for aesthetic/fire control purposes that is not to be stocked.
Slopes of 3:1 will be maintained around the pit and these are to be planted with a mixture consisting primarily of
fescues and lespedeza.
This Swamp Forest community type occurring adjacent to this area has been identified by the Natural Heritage
Program(NtIP)as a Significant Natural Community Type. The Swamp Forest Wetlands that occur between the
area to be disturbed and the river(Cape Fear River Floodplain Swamp Forest)provides valuable wildlife habitat and
water quality functions.
We have the following concerns regarding the proposed project:
• The applicant proposes to stabilize the disturbed portions of the site with non-native species. We
recommend the use of a more locally native species such as switchgrass(Panicum virgatum). Also, we
recommend shrub species such as wax myrtle(Myrica cerifera),silverling(Baccharis ha/imifoiia),and/or
marsh elder(Na fruiescens) for stabilization around the pond's edge. The use of these species will provide
food and cover for wildlife not afforded by grasses typically used for stabilization.

Telephone: [phone] • Fax: [phone]

Wilmington Materials—ADloyal Pit 2 Is January 5,2006
• There has not been a wetland delineation done and the area surrounding the area to be disturbed is said to
be wetlands. The possibility exists that wetlands may be impacted;therefore,we recommend that a
wetlands delineation be performed and specific erosion control measures be developed for the site. Further,
we recommend that all wetlands on the 83 acre site be preserved permanently through conservation
easement to protect them from degradation.
• We recommend a 100 ft native forested buffer be maintained or created on both sides of perennial streams
and one of 50 ft on each side of intermittent streams.
The NCWRC does not object to the issuance of the mining permit for this project,provided that our
recommendations are included as conditions of the permit. Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment
on this application. If you have any questions or require additional information regarding these comments, please
call me at(910)796-7436.

Carol, could you get Solid Waste and Wetland to give you a list of their
concerns about creating wetland on this permit. Kyle called and I want
to give him a list of things he needs to submit. He's talking about
doing a nature conservancy thing with the property.
I told him that we needed, at a minimum , a map showing where he wants
to create the wetlands, how depth the water would be, and what species
of plants he wants to plant.
Would Solid Waste have a problem if was only clean mulch?

FROM: William Wescott
Coastal Habitat Coordinator
DATE: September 22, 1995
SUBJECT: Mining Permit Renewal and Modification Request for Wilmington Materials, Inc.,
A D Royal Pit, New Hanover County. Permit # 65-05.
Staff biologists with the Wildlife Resources Commission have completed a review of the
project with regard to associated impacts on wildlife and fishery resources in the area. A site visit
was conducted on September 21, 1995. Our comments are provided in accordance with
provisions of the Fish and Wildlife Coordination Act (48 Stat. 401, as amended; 16 U.S.C. 661-
667d), Section 401(b) of the Clean Water Act of 1977 (as amended), and the North Carolina
Mining Act of 1971 (as amended, 1982; G.S. 74-76 et. seq., 15 NCAC 5).
The applicant is requesting a permit renewal and modification to continue mining sand
from a 83 acre tract of land. The area will be left as a pond upon completion. The application
narrative and a site visit revealed proposed 3:1 slopes, and no buffer between mining activities and
wetlands/watercourses. We request a 30 foot minimum buffer between mining activities and
wetlands. We recommend that reclamation occur simultaneous with mining activities and that a
mixture of browntop millet, sericea lespedeza and shrub lespedeza be used instead of bermuda
grass for reclaiming berms, slopes, processing facilities, stockpile areas, and on-site roadways.
This recommended mixture has proven to provide excellent ground cover and stabilization as well
as food and habitat for various wildlife species. Rye grain should be substituted for browntop
millet during fall and winter planting. Trees should be part of the final reclamation effort.
Desirable tree packets can be obtained through the Forest Service.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this project. If you have any concerns
regarding our comments, please contact William Wescott at [phone].

Re: A.D.Royal Pit Map
Dear Tracy:
Thanks for your help yesterday over the phone. I have inspected the areas on the north side
of the pond as we discussed I believe that by early summer they will be completely
covered with vegetation,however,to see than now it is indeed questionable,therefore I
have included this on the map as a bonded area.
Please review and let me know so that we can got up to speed on our renewal.
Thank you again for your help.

RE: Partial Release Request for the A.D. Royal Pit
Permit No. 65-05
New Hanover County
Dear Mr. McIntyre:
This letter is in r9sponse to your letter dated January 3 ,
1995 requesting release of 21 acres from the above referenced mine
site. A recent site visit by the Wilmington Regional Office (WRO)
has revealed that the area you have requested release on is not
ready for release.
The actual pond area cannot be released until all mining-
related activities have ceased in the pond excavation and the side
slopes of the pond are permanently stabilized. This usually
requires completion of mining at the site and seeding the
sideslopes with a permanent grass mixture. The vegetative cover
must have, at the minimum, one growing season to establish.
You may, however, request release on the side slopes if you do
not intend to redisturb them and have established a permanent,
vegetative cover on them. To accomplish this, you must request .a.-
partial release and submit a mine map delineating the side slopes
you wish to have released from the permitted acreage. The request
must also include the corresponding acreage of these permanently
stabilized areas.
Please contact me at (919) 733-4574 or Ms. Carol Miller at
(910) 395-3900 if you have any questions concerning this matter.
Sincerely.

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 t'har 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.

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

Dear Sir:
On February 13, 1985, you were notified that you were operating a sand pit
in Brunswick County off Highway 133 in violation of The Mining Act of 1971 by
operating an approximately two acre sand pit without a mining permit.
While investigating other mining without a permit on adjacent lands, we
have determined that your firm had conducted most of the mining on the two acre
property in question.
I understand that you have ceased mining at this site. However, the site
of your sand mining was apparently abandoned without performing the required
reclamation. The Mining Act normally holds the mine operator responsible for
the reclamation and not the current landowner.

Permit Renewal
Dear Mr. Whitehead:
The above mining permit issued to Whitehead Construction Company
will expire July 20, 1975.
We will be happy to renew this permit and transfer it to the
current company name.
However, the current $2,500 surety on file is in your name. Since
the corporation is technically the "mine operator", the surety must be
in the name of the mine operator. I am returning a copy of the present
assignment form and a new bond form and assignment form.
Please transfer the surety to reflect the current name of your
company.
If you have any questions concerning this matter.

Re: Jerry M. Gore
Gore Sand & Gravel Company
Dear Mr. Evans:
Hr. Gore has contacted us in connection with the writing of a mining
. permit bond for their sandpit on Highuay 421. In fact, some of the
delay in this instance has been caused by our office's not being
familiar with this type bond.
It is my understanding from Y,k. Gore that he will simply take over
this situation from Parmenter Transport Company, who previously filed
the necessary papers with you for conducting this sandpit operation.
It is further my ,understanding that you will simply transfer the permit;
and in order to underwrite the bond in this case, we need a copy of the
reclamation program as filed with you so as to determine our risk
under this bond.
If you will please photostat the reclamation schedule and furnish me
with a copy, we will attempt to get this matter squared away for you.
h•Yany thanks.
Yours truly,

Re: Notice of Deficiency r—
A.D. Royal Pit
New Hanover County
Dear Mr. McIntyre:
On January 7, 1992 and February 13, 1992, inspections of the subject mine were
performed by personnel from this office. As listed in the enclosed inspection
report, several deficiencies were observed that require your prompt attention.
The deficiencies discovered and the necessary corrective actions are as
follows:
Operating condition No. 10. The security which was posted pursuant to NODS
74-54 in the form of a two thousand five hundred dollar ($2,500) certificate of
deposit is sufficient to cover the operation as indicated on the approved
application. This security must remain in force for this permit to be valid.
The total affected land shall not exceed the bonded acreage.
The total affected area associated with the mining operation has exceeded the
bonded acreage.
As an alternative to filirx3 the attached minim modification permit application
to increase affected acreage, you must immediately initiate reclamation of this
site and complete the reclamation with 30 days of receipt of this Notice. A
further option is for you to reclaim a portion of the site but still increase
your permit and bond to reflect an area larger than the existing 4 acre permit.
Should you choose either of these alternatives, you must submit, within 15 days
of receipt of this Notice, a plan detailing the intended reclamation including
a specific schedule for cornpletion of this work.

cmpliance at the site.

Re: Royal Pit Modification Request
Mining Permit No. 65-05
New Hanover County
Dear Mr. McIntyre:
The review has been completed on the additional information
submitted for our review of the modification request for the mining
permit for the Royal Pit in New Hanover County. The following
information is needed to complete our review:
1) It does not appear that the submitted Assignment of
Savings Account is the original document. The Assignment
form filed with this Department does not have original
notary and bank seals and does not appear to have the
original signatures. Please forward the original
document to this office.
2 ) The permit limits must include the total body of water,
as a part of a body of water cannot be released from a
mining permit until mining activities have ceased in all
areas of the body of water. Shore lines may be released
if final reclamation has been completed. Please show the
permit boundaries extending around the lake and include
this acreage in the permitted acreage.
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT OUR REVIEW CANNOT BE COMPLETED UNTIL
ALL OF THE ITEMS LISTED ABOVE HAVE BEEN FULLY ADDRESSED.
In order to complete the processing of your modification
request, please forward two (2) copies of the requested information
to my attention at the following address:

RE: Mining app 11cation review comments .
A.D. Royal Sand Pit Major Modification, Wilmington Sand & Gravel
Co. , Inc. , New Hanover County - Enclosed is the additional
information that Beth and I spoke of as being necessary to finish
our review of this application. An accurate plan of the site is
included that Carol and I verified this morning by the inspection
of stakes that located the mining area limits. We ran the stake
distances via wheel (actually I did, Carol is starting month number
9) , and confirm the given dimensions. Mr. McIntyre made the
statements that we felt were needed both on the plan and in his
letter to me. The original documentation of the Certificate of
Deposit is enclosed. The map scale is an architectural scale of
3/8" equals 100' (which is aproximately 1" = 266' via engineering
scale) ; however, I recommend that we accept it as submitted.
Rocky Point Pit, CCC Sand & Gravel, Inc. , Pender County - We have
reviewed the plan and inspected the site and enclosed is the R.O.
Review Checklist and our inspection report. We have forwarded the
application to DEM for comment and will forward that information
when provided. This project was originally started by Aberdeen
Sand and Gravel Co. (see case file LQM 89-049) and we are pursuing
enforcment and penalties from that company. The mining operation
has not been objected to on environmental reasons; therefore, we
express no objections to its reveiw and issuance.
Please note that a new enforcement case and update material for a
second case are included.

Re: Royal Pit Modification Request
Mining Permit No. 65-05
New Hanover County
Dear Mr. McIntyre:
The review has been completed on the additional information
submitted for the modification of the mining permit for the Royal
Pit in New Hanover County. The following information is still
needed to complete our review:
1) Though the cover letter dated May 7 , 1992 indicates
that the areas to be permitted and the areas to be
reclaimed have been located on the mine map (orthophoto
map) , these areas in fact have not been clearly
identified. Please label all areas to be covered by
the mining permit and all areas to be reclaimed. As a
reminder, any areas that have been previously mined
must remain under the permit until such time that a
formal release request has been requested and approved
by this office.
2) It is evident that the reclamation bond must be
increased from the current amount of $2 ,500.00 to a
more appropriate amount. Based upon the acreages
indicated on the mine map and on the revised page 2 of
the application form, the bond amount must be at least
$5 , 000 . 00 (please see the attached bond schedule) . It
appears on the same mine map, though, that all areas to
be affected through the 1995 expiration date of this
permit have not been included. Please clarify in
writing and on the mine map the acreage that is to be
affected at any one time within the permit boundaries .
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT OUR REVIEW CANNOT BE COMPLETED UNTIL
ALL OF THE ITEMS LISTED ABOVE HAVE BEEN FULLY ADDRESSED.

RE: Mining Permit Reviews
A.D. Royal Pit Modification Request, (Permit No. 65-05) New Hanover County -
Enclosed is yet more information we received from Mr. Kyle McIntyre for
the above mentioned mine modification. The enclosed aerial map while not
of a scale of 1"=100', is of sufficient scale to allow us to delineate his plan
proposal. My conversations with Mr. McIntyre convince me that he now
understands our intent in regards of all other cleared areas not on the
delineated portions of this aerial and he agrees to stabilize all nonpermitted
areas. We shall hold him to that agreement, which shall include the total
reclamation of the pond slopes. The Wilmington Regional Office has not
further objections to the modification application.
Wells Limestone Mine, Colton M. Wells, Duplin County - Noting the previously
submitted information, the new map that has been prepared, the approval
of the NPDES permit, Beth's comments, and our previous conversations
with Mr. Wells, the Wilmington Regional Office forsees no problems with the
application. The areas outside the permit area to be "cleaned up" must
fall under the authority of the Sedimentation Pollution Control Act, and we
would request that if you have further conversations with Mr. Wells that
that point continue to be made. Our last inspection of the site on
February 5, 1992, found no environmental problems on site. If all
application information is adequately provided to you, this office has no
problems with permit approval.

Mining Permit # 65-05

Dear Dan,
Pursuant to our conversation and meeting on May 6,
1 have inarked up the 1990 New Hanover County Orthophoto map
showing the following areas : A) area to be reclaimed,
B) area presently mining, C) area to be mined through 1993 ,
D) area to be permitted, and E ) bonded area .
I believe that all of the information on page 17 of
the minirig application is addressed on the maps I have
submitL-ed, except the stormwater calculations . Per your
approv.:jI , I have omitted these calculation as all stormwater
runoff is contained in the mine area. Also my acreage
totals do not include wetland areas because they will be
left undisturbed.
I have also included page 2 from the application
form. Thank you for your help. If you have any questions ,
please call .

Dear Mr. McIntyre:
The review has been completed on the additional information
submitted for the modification request for the mining permit for
the Royal Pit in New Hanover County. The following additional
information is still needed to complete our review:
1 ) Page 2 from the attached application form must be
completely filled out and returned. A.1 must indicate
the total acreage at the site to be covered by the mining
permit and must correspond to the acreage indicated on
the mine map.
2 ) The submitted mine maps are inadequate. Please refer to
page 17 of the application form for a list of items that
must be addressed on the mine map. The map scale must be
1"=100' or smaller to show detail . Also, areas that have
been affected must be indicated on the map. The mining
limits for the next three years (until your permit
expires) must also be indicated on the map. Sediment and
erosion control measures must be proposed for all land-
disturbing activities within the proposed permit
boundaries . Supporting calculations and construction
details must also be submitted. All items listed on page
17 of the application form must be addressed on the mine
map.
Furthermore , the areas you wish to reclaim must be
located on the mine map and identified as areas to be
reclaimed instead of covered by the permit. You must
also provide this office with a schedule of reclamation
for this area.

RE: Mining Permit Reviews
A.D. Royal Pit Modification Request, (Permit No. 65-05) New Hanover County -
Enclosed is the additional information we received from Mr. Kyle McIntyre
for the above mentioned mine modification. Because I did not find it
clearly stated, I asked Mr. McIntyre how he was proceeding with the major
modification. He wishes to permit upto 24.99 acres, but only disturb and
therefore limit his bond to 10 acres at one time. We have informed him
that this option will require extensive revegetation, i.e. reclamation, of
the site as it exists today. He concurs and agrees to stabilize all area not
colored on Map "D". We shall hold him to that agreement, which shall
include the total reclamation of the pond slopes.

MEMORANDUM MAR 17 1992
TO: Beth Chesson, Assistant Mining Specialist LAND QUALITY SEC1iON
FROM: Daniel Sams, Wilmington Regional Engineer
RE: Mining Permit Reviews
Stella Sand Pit Stella Construction Company, Carteret County - The new plan
clarifies the site condition much more than the previous submissions.
Kraynak's inspection of the site found the pit in relatively good shape;
therefore, we have no objections to the permit.
Simmons Mine Simmons Construction Company, Brunswick County - The newest
plan submittal is not significantly different than the one we reviewed in
August 1991. Please see our comments to you for August 30, 1991. The
only change is to call the mining limits to the edge of the property Line
making us wonder if the buffer zone provides any visibility barrier.
Little Bit Mine, Ralph Beasley, Brunswick County - Enclosed is the comments
you requested from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for this application.
We have visited the site and have no objections to the application.
J.P. Russ N.C. 904 Pit James P. Russ & Son, Inc. , Brunswick County - We
have referred this application to D.E.M. for comment. The site does not
appear to be in area where zoning presents a problem. We have no
objections to the application.
Barefoot Mine Benson Construction Company, Columbus County - We had some
problems with the accuracy of the original plan (Feb. 7) ; therefore, we
conducted a second inspection of the site with Mr. Benson in attendence.
We asked for and got a second site plan (March 6, 1992) that was more
comprehensive. Both plans are enclosed. We have no other objections.
A.D. Royal Pit Wilmington Sand & Gravel, New Hanover County - We have
done multiple inspections of this site and still feel that unless the site can
be reclaimed significantly, the pit must be modified to include a larger
area. We have compromised with Mr. McIntyre to allow him to reclaim all
but <10 acres to keep his reclamation bond reasonable; however, that will
require Wilmington S & G to stablize more than 25 acres. Since his
submitted map is not scaled, we cannot consider it adequate. The area to
be reclaimed has not had a significant revegetation schedule included.
The true limits of grading are not shown. We fear that the excessive
cleared areas will remain unstablized unless Wilmington S & G is made to
tie down their limits of grading.
Wells Limestone Mine, Colton M. Wells, Duplin County - This application is now
over one year old and should either be acted on or closed.

Re: Royal Pit Modification Request
Mining Permit No. 65-05
New Hanover County
Dear Mr. McIntyre:
This letter serves to follow up our conversation this morning
concerning the above referenced modification request. I have
attached a revised Mining Permit Modification Checklist, permit
application form, a copy of page 2 from the original permit
application indicating that 5 acres were permitted, and a copy of
the original map of the 5 acres . I'm assuming that the western
4 . 85 acre section was permitted since this area shows the mining
activity. To complete your modification request, please fill out
the application and indicate how many acres total will be covered
by this permit. Note in the cover letter the amount of acres
above the 5 originally permitted acres to be covered by the
permit. This acreage will be the modification acreage. The
modification processing fee is based upon the acreage to be
modified. We have received $100 .00 . If the acreage to be
modified is less than 25 acres, the fee already. received will be
sufficient. Otherwise, an additional fee may be required.
Please see the fee schedule in the application form. Please keep
in mind that your mining permit expires on September 3, 1995. On
the mining map, please indicate the area you expect to mine or
affect by. mining for the next 3 years (so you will not need to
modify you permit again before the expiration date) .
As a reminder, the bond amount is based upon the affected
acreage, which is not necessarily the same as the permitted area.
Currently you have a $2 , 500.00 bond with the Department.
Therefore, you can have affected and unreclaimed at any one time
up to 5 acres. Concurrent reclamation, keeping the affected
acreage below 5 acres , is desirable. You can either opt to have
reclaimed areas formally released by the Department (attached is
a Release Request Form; if you wish to have only a section of the
mine released, then please also send a cover letter and mine map
indicating the acreage to be released and the location) or you
can retain the reclaimed areas under your mining permit.

I believe this letter briefly covers all of the items we
discussed by phone, and I hope that this answers any questions
you may have. I also believe this modification will make the
permit renewal process much simpler. Please be reminded that you
can request permit renewal at any time two years prior to the
expiration date . We recommend requesting renewal at least 60
days prior to the expiration date. In any event, it is important
that you request renewal before the expiration date to avoid
enforcement actions or filing a new permit application. If you
have any questions , please contact me at (919 )733-4574 .

RE: A.D. Royal Pit
Dear Sam:
Pursuant to your letter of February 13, 1992 and
inspection on February 2, 1992, this letter is intended to -
answer all aspects relating to our pit that may be in
question.
Enclosed please find the $ 100. 00 modification fee,
the assignment of savings--account. and an updated mine map.
I have initiated reclaiming the east part of the
Pit, next to the pond by sloping the banks to a 3 to 1
angle. This area will be seeded wilthin 60 days. I am also
planning to seed the entire field with Tifton 44 Hybrid
Bermuda grass in March or April . Though this does not
pertain to the mining operation, I thought it would be best
to include it on the mine map. I also would like to
increase my bond to 10 acres. I believe this will more than
adequately cover the mining area.
Should you have any questions about these changes,
just give me a call . Thant: you in advance for you help.

Re: Notice of Deficiency
A.D. Royal Pit
New Hanover County
Dear Mr. McIntyre:
on January 7, 1992 and February 13, 1992, inspections of the subject mine were
performed by personnel from this office. As listed in the enclosed inspection
report, several deficiencies were observed that require your prompt attention.
The deficiencies discovered and the necessary corrective actions are as
follows:
operating condition No. 10. The security which was posted pursuant to NODS
74-54 in the form of a two thousand five hundred dollar ($2,500) certificate of
deposit is sufficient to cover the operation as indicated on the approved
application. This security must remain in force for this permit to be valid.
The total affected land shall not exceed the bonded acreage.
The total affected area associated with the mining operation has exceeded the
bonded acreage.
As an alternative to filing the attached mining modification permit application
to increase affected acreage, you must inmediately initiate reclamation of this
site and omplete the reclamation with 30 days of receipt of this Notice. A
further option is for you to reclaim a portion of the site but still increase
your permit and bond to reflect an area larger than the existing 4 acre permit.
Should you choose either of these alternatives, you must submit, within 15 days
of receipt of this Notice, a plan detailing the intended reclamation including
a specific schedule for completion of this work.

If the previously described deficiencies are not corrected within 20 days following
your receipt of this Notice, this matter will be referred to the Director of the
Division of Land Resources, Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources,
for the issuance of an official Notice of Violation in an effort to secure
compliance at the site.
If you have any questions 'regarding the status of this mine, on other related
matters, please do not hesitate to contact Carol Miller or myself at this office.

Dear. Mr. Whitehead:
On November 22, 1976, an inspection of your A.D. Royal Pit in New Hanover
County was made as required by G.S. 74-56 of "The Mining Act of 1971. "
I found most conservation and reclamation practices carried out to date
to be adequate. One area that needs attention is with regard to the disposal
of mining refuse at your old mining site. You indicated that most of the useable
scrap metal and tires would be hauled away to your new site. I would like to
recommend that any remaining refuse be buried in the pit area and that the entire
area be graded and seeded to grass as has been done in the mined out areas.
Your attention regarding this matter will be greatly appreciated ,
Yours very truly,
Gerald J. Kraynak
