PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES 1. Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation of the mine and reference the sequence to the mine map(s).Attach additional sheets as needed. Pit development is typical for a mature limestone quarry. Rock adjacent to the pit is exposed via stripping of soil. The disturbed area is graded to drain to the pit or other approved erosion control measures. The sequence of the existing pit, stripped areas, and future pit is included on the enclosed mine map. 2. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during mining to prevent offsite sedimentation(include specific plans forsediment and erosion control formine excavations),waste piles,access/mine roads,and process areas),and give a detailed sequence of installation and schedule for maintenance of the measures.Locate and label all sediment and erosion control measures on the mine maps)and provide typical cross�ectionslconst(uction details of each measure.Engineering designs and calculations are required to justify the adequacy of any proposed measures. Erosion control measures are shown on the attached mine map. Each of these measures is designed to meet the criteria in the Division's Erosion and Sediment Control Planning and Design Manual, Details for existing structures have been previously submitted and approved. New erosion control measures included as part of this modification are described and detailed in the supporting documentation. 3. A)Will the operation involve wash' the material mined, recycling process water,or other wastewater handling? EYES IMNO If yes,briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used. The mina discharges comingled stormwaler and groundwater from the pit. The stormwater Includes precipitation that fell directly Into the pit as well as runoff that drained Into the pll. Both the stormwater and groundwater accumulate in a sump in the bottom of the pH,which is pumped out as needed. The pump discharges into a clarlficallon pond prlor to leaving the site. NC NPDES General Parmit No.NCG020000 allows the use of chemical flocoulants from a list of polymers approved by the Division of Water Resources. One of these flomulants maybe used periodically to maintain water quality.
