Dear Mr. Simpson:
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
I 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 has been calculated for this site using the information submitted
on the revised mine map (see enclosed worksheet). The bond amount for this site is
$14,900.00. The bond is required before the permit can be issued. For your convenience,
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., Noah Simpson, In addition to one of these
alternatives you may, upon request, substitute a cash deposit.
Please review the enclosed draft permit and the reclamation bond worksheet, 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.
t
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.

manager and landowner across I-lighway 101 have been properly notified.
Response: Copies of the return receipts from the county manager and the landowner
across I-Iighway 101 (FredcriclkLindow) are attached.
2. Revise the mine mnp to show the location of the sediment basin. Is it the dcwatering
basin? In addition, show the location of the entire access load to its intersection with
Highway 101. especially along the wetlands. Provide acreage for the entire road. It
appears to be more than 0.03 of an acre_ I estimated I A aura
Response: The pil dewatering basin in the north%ecst comer of the propel v is the only
basin on the project. The access road has been addut to the drawing and is shown all the
wav h1 its intersection with I lighwav 101. I am being told that the primary acecss is
currently straight on to the Il W Y 70 right—of—way. That short section to Il W Y 70 was

Dear Mr. Simpson:
We have reviewed the application you submitted for the referenced mine site. In order
for this office to complete its review of the referenced project in accordance with GS 74-50 and
51 of the Mining Act of 1971, please provide the additional or revised information in
accordance with the following comments:
1. Provide proof such as copies of the return receipts from certified mail, that the
county manager and adjoining landowners have been properly notified.
2. The affidavit of notification (page 17) has "See List Attached"where the names of
the adjoining landowners should be but no list was attached. Please provide the
referred to list,
3. More detail is needed regarding dewatering activities. Please provide the pump
model, pumping capacity, hours of pump operation, etc. It is very unlikely that
mining can occur to a depth of 25 feet without pumping less than 100,000 gallons
per day.
4. Revise the mine map to clearly label the permit boundary. Label the buffers
(setbacks) as either undisturbed or unexcavated. A minimum of 50 foot
undisturbed buffer must be provide along wetlands and waterways, unless details
are provided to ensure that the wetlands and waterways will not be affected. Silt
fence should be located outside of undisturbed buffers as it is impossible to
install silt fence without disturbance. In addition, show all of the features within
300 feet of the mine permit boundary, including roadways, dwellings, ditches, etc.

Nipping Operation and Monitoring Plan
For
Simpson Family Properties
Borrow Excavation
Overview
The Simpson Family Properties Borrow is a site approved and used by NCDO'1 as the primary
borrow source for the construction of the US 70 to Olga Road in Beaufort. ']'he: mine is located
on a 45 AC tract of land that is located off NC 1-1 WY 101 approximately"a miles north of the
intersection oFNC HWY 101 and NC 11«'Y 70 in Beaufort.The latitude is 34.7463, longitude-
7F.G429. `1'hc mine itself will have a surface area of approximately 20.82 acres and a depth of 23
f1but at completion. A 25 foot buffer will be maintained along the property boundary; and a 100
]m buffer has been maintained along the wetland boundary. ']'his 100' buffer was based on the
Skaggs Method and input discussions from N'CD0T, USACH and Stroud l:ngiitccring, P.A.
Dewatering
The current dewatcring by NCDOT takes place 24/7 with a pump discharging c@ 450 6M1'
approximately 90%of the time. In high water situations a second pLimp is used to increase the
rate: to 900 GPM. These pumps currently discharge into a dewatering basin and discharge into it
canal determined by USACl, representative Tom Steffans to be a high ground ditch that is not
identified as waters of the US. After NCDOT is finished with this project the owner plazas to
continere the dewatering operation but will hold flow to less than 100,000 G1'D. Since the pump
operates.at 450 GPM the run tune can be computed as follows:
100,000 GPDI(450 gal/min x 60 minlhr)=3_7 hrslday
11y limiting the pump titnc to 3.7 1irslday and maintaining a mintirnum 100 foot buffer, no adverse
effects on the wetlands arc anticipated.
DisLharge Monitoring
'llic mine area generally has good clean sand up to a depth of 23 feet. We propose to have
personnel monitor the discharge:a minimum of twice per day when excavating from 0 to 20 feet
and a minimum of four times per day when excavating from 20 to 23 feet.
