Good afternoon,Adam,
Attached is the Water Level Complaint Questionnaire concerning the Ashton Farms
Sand Mine project/site.
I had received a few complaints this week over the dewatering of their mining activities.
Essentially, Mrs. Martha Denton is concerned that her pond is being affected due to the
practices involving the mine (i.e., water level, contaminants/sedimentation, grease/oily
film), per her complaint.
Her residence is: 2714 Longwood Road Northwest,Ash, NC. Her neighbor, (which is her
granddaughter) lives at 2747 Longwood Road Northwest, Ash, NC. The granddaughter's
concerns were that her well has failed due to sediment in her water supply/shower, in
conjunction with the mining going on.
Brian Lambe had discussed with me that Norris &Tunstall/the associated party with the
mine had not denoted her well in their submittals. Additionally, they have not obtained
their NCG02 permit.
Please let me know if you need any additional information.
Take care,
Austin Turbitt
