RE: Mining Permit No. 10-68
Southport Drege Spoil Site
Brunswick County
Dear NC DOT - Ferry Division:
This letter is to advise you of recent amendments to the North Carolina Mining Act of 1971 which impact the
permit term of your existing mining permit. Pursuant to the passage of House Bill 56, which became law on October 4,
2017 as SL 2017-209, all existing mining permits and any newly issued mining permits are to be issued for the life of site
or for the duration of the lease term. The "life of site" means the period from the initial receipt of a permit for the operation
until the mining operation terminates and the required reclamation is completed.
Considering the above, this letter hereby modifies your existing mining permit to remove all references to the prior
expiration date to convert your permit to a life of site or lease permit effective immediately. No action is required on your
part for this modification to be effective. Please attach this letter to your existing mining permit for future reference. The
mine name and permit number on the permit document, and all existing operating and reclamation conditions contained
therein, shall remain in full force and effect. Furthermore, all provisions of GS §74-51 and GS §74-52 still apply to all new,
transferred and modified mining permits.
In addition to the life of site or lease mining permit provision, SL 2017-209 also enacted a new annual mining
permit operating fee of$400 per mining permit number. By statute, the initial payment of this annual $400 fee must be
submitted to this office by December 31, 2017— see the attached Invoice to remit the initial annual fee payment by this
deadline. Beginning in 2018, the $400 annual operating fee must be submitted by July 1 of each year with the required
Annual Reclamation Report as required by GS §74-55. Failure to submit the fee by the required deadline will result in a
$50/month late fee and could result in the denial of future permit actions and/or revocation of your mining permit.
Lastly, pursuant to GS §74-54, the cap on reclamation bonds has been raised from $500,000 to $1 million. Any
adjustments needed in existing bonds will be initiated by this office or addressed during your next requested permit action
unless you contact this office with a written request to have your bond reevaluated.
The issuance of a mining permit and/or any modification to it does not supersede local zoning regulations. The
responsibility of compliance with any applicable zoning regulations remains with you.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions on the above, please contact Ms. Judy
Wehner, Assistant State Mining Specialist, or me at [phone].

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 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.

Dear Mrs. Wehner,
The North Carolina Department of Transportation Ferry Division is requesting a renewal
of the Southport Dredge Spoil Site Mine with the Mining Permit#10-68 for an additional
ten (10) years. The WBS # to be used to cover the permit renewal cost is 16.71044. There
are no changes with this renewal. This site is used for the disposal of dredge spoil when
dredging the Southport approach channel and Ferry Basin. Sand is needed to be removed
on occasion to make room for additional spoil disposal when the need arises. The site
provides a self-contained area for spoil inside the vegetated earthen berm. When spoil is
removed,any portion of the berm that was disturbed will be reconstructed back to its
original dimensions and stabilized with silt fence, seeding, and mulching to appropriate
levels.
In response to your letter dated April 30,2015 in reference to the Southport Dredge Spoil
Site Mine Map all requested information has been added to the location maps. i have
provided two (2) copies of each map as requested along with this letter.
If you have any questions or need any additional information please give me a call
(Office: 252-491-26351 Cell: 252-305-7288) or email me ([e-mail]) at your
convenience.

Subject- RE: SOTHPORT FERRY MINING MAP
Chris,
We believe that Option 1: }grading the berms and spoil to a more uniform feature and re-seeding is the best route to
take for the Final Reclamation Plan. Please revise the map to reflect this decision. I appreciate all the hard work and time
you have spent on this.
Thank you,
Cat

Subject: RE: SOTHPORT FERRY MINING MAP
Lance,
After talking with Judy Wehner this morning it is required that we change the Final Reclamation plan for the site on
the map. Options discussed were: 1) grading the berms and spoil to a more uniform feature and re-seeding, 2)
hauling/selling material and grading to natural ground then re-seeding. This item is the only thing holding up the map at
this time. Once I have your decision on the Final Reclamation I will revise the map and make delivery to you.
Thank you,
Chris

Judy,
I faxed over the DWQ and DAQ reviews. I have several comments for the mine map listed below.
1. The mining boundaries should be labeled.
2. Label the buffer
3. A cross section of the berm and slopes may be helpful
That being said, it doesn't look like they are changing anything and it has always been in good shape. Let me know if you
have any questions or need additional information.
Thanks

Dear Mrs. Boyer,
The North Carolina Department of Transportation Ferry Division is requesting a
renewal of the Southport Dredge Spoil Site Mine with the Mining Permit#10-68 for an
additional ten(10) years. The WBS #to be used to cover the permit renewal cost is
16.71044. I have included one (1) original and five (5) copies of the application along
with six (6) copies of all location and mine maps. There are no changes with this renewal.
This site is used for the disposal of dredge spoil when dredging the Southport approach
channel and Ferry Basin. Sand is needed to be removed on occasion to make room for
additional spoil disposal when the need arises. The site provides a self-contained area for
spoil inside the vegetated earthen berm. When spoil is removed, any portion of the berm
that was disturbed will be reconstructed back to its original dimensions and stabilized
with silt fence,seeding, and mulching to appropriate levels. if you have any questions or
need any additional information please give me a call (Office: 252-491-2635 /Cell: 252-
305-7288) or email me ([e-mail]) at your convenience.

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.

Thank you for giving us the opportunity to review and comment on the above project pursuant to Chapter
74,Article 7 of the North Carolina General Statutes.
Because of the location and topographic situation of the proposed project area,it is unlikely that any
archaeological sites which may be eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places will be affected
by the proposed borrowing. We, therefore,recommend that no archaeological investigation be conducted in
connection with this project.
While we note that this project review is only for a state permit, the potential for federal permits may require
further consultation with us and compliance with Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act.
Thank you for your cooperation and consideration. If you have questions concerning the above comment,

Dear Mr. Sams:
Please find the enclosed six completed permit applications, maps and a check in
the amount of$250.00 for our Southport dredge spoil site.
Notification to the adjacent property owners and the Brunswick County Manager
have been sent by certified mail.
The purpose of this permit is to sell dredge spoil material that has been pumped
into the site previously to offset the cost of dredging and preparing the site for Future
dredging of the ferry terminal.
In addition, due to the enduring nature and fiscal responsibility of the Department
of Transportation, Ferry Division we respectfully request that the requirement for a bond
to insure proper reclamation of this site be waived, per the enclosed letter from Mr. Jerry
Gaskill, Director Ferry Division.
If you have any questions please contact me at Hatteras Inlet Ferry Operations

Thank you for your help and cooperation with this matter.

Subject: Security/Reclamation Bond for Proposed DOT Mining Permit Operations
This letter will serve to fulfill the mining permit security/bonding requirements, which mandate that a
security/bond be posted before a mining permit is issued. This statutory requirement is to provide the
Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) the financial assurance that the reclamation costs
associated with a particular permitted mining operation will be covered should the site be abandoned.
As indicated in the cover letter attached to the mining permit application now under review by your
agency, it is the intent of the Ferry Division of the Department of Transportation (DOT) to continuously recycle
the dredge spoil/mining sites as long as the ferries in question are operational. However, in the eventuality
that this site or any other mining operations permitted by the DOT are abandoned, the Ferry Division will
engage the Division of Highways' respective Division Roadside Environmental Operations to mobilize and
perform any necessary reclamation work required by the respective mining permit and the Mining Act of 1971.
Once the necessary restoration work has been completed by the DOT and deemed acceptable by the DENR,
it is the DOT's understanding that it will be released from further reclamation obligation for the site in question
and its mine permit file will be closed by the DENR.
This possible activity has been discussed with the Division management of the Ferry Division where in
the Southport ferry facility is located and they are receptive to performing the work if needed.
