C.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 granite 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 for sediment and erosion control for mine excavation(s),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-sections/construction 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 washing the material mined,recycling process water,or other wastewater handling?
1^1YES FNO
If yes,briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used.
The mine discharges comingled stormwater and groundwater from the pit. The stormwater includes precipitation that fell
directly Into the pit as well as runoff that drained Into the pit. Both the stormwater and groundwater accumulate in a sump In
the bottom of the pit,which is pumped out as needed. The pump discharges Into a clarification pond prior to leaving the site.
NC NPDES General Permit No.NCG020000 allows the use of chemical flocculants from a list of polymers approved by the
Division of Water Resources. One of these flocculants may be used periodically to maintain water quality.
All process water from washing of material is handled through a closed loop recycle system of settling ponds.
B}Will the operation involve discharging fresh or wastewater from the mine or plant as a point discharge to the waters
of the State?
a YES F—]NO
if yes,briefly describe the nature of the discharge and locate all proposed discharge points(along wrfh their method of
stabilization)on the mine map(s).
The site is permitted to discharge pit water, process water, and stormwater by

This site has not historically adversely affected offsite wells.All known well locations within 500 feet of the proposed
excavation are depicted on the site plan. The site is served by several wells,while the locale is served by private wells
and public water systems.
The pit sump accumulates stormwater runoff,precipitation,and groundwater seepage. The amount of groundwater In
the pit discharge Is unknown. Most of the discharge is comprised of stormwater. The pit discharge is covered by NC
NPDES General Permit No.NCG020000 Certificate of Coverage No.NCG020094. The estimated withdrawal rate is the
rate calculated as part of the annual withdrawal rate submitted to the Division of Water Resources.
D)If you answered yes to any of the above questions,provide evidence that you have applied for or obtained the
appropriate water quality permit(s)(i.e.,non-discharge,NPDES,Stormwater,etc.)from the Stormwater Program.In
addition,the applicant is required to register water use with the Division of Water Resources,Ground Water
Management Branch,if the operation withdraws more than 10,000 gallons per day and needs a capacity use permit
from the Division of Water Resources,Ground Water Management Branch,if the operation lies in a capacity use area
and withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day.
The site is permitted to discharge stormwater, process water, and pit water by
NC NPDES General Permit No. NCG020000 Certificate of Coverage No.

mine map if they are within 300 feet of any proposed excavation.
The mine excavation will not extend close enough to the property boundaries to cause any
physical damage to offsite buildings or roads. Quarry blasting is designed to prevent excessive
vibrations. Seismograph readings are recorded during each blasting shot. The shots are
typically scheduled near mid-day and will appear similar to distant thunder lasting under a
second from adjacent properties. Blasting typically occurs between one and three times a
week. Structures within 300 feet are shown on the mine map.
8. Describe what kind of barricade will be used to prevent inadvertent public access along any high wall area and when it
will be implemented.Vegetated earthen berms,appropriate fencing and adequate boulder barriers may be acceptable

sizes and species for tree plantings.
Existing trees, terrain and berms effectively screen the mining operation from
nearby roads and homes. Trees and vegetation have been planted on berms
and other areas to provide long-term screening and soil stability. The proposed
berms will further screen the operation upon their completion.
B)Could the operation have a significantly adverse effect on the purposes of a publicly owned park,forest,or
recreation area?If so,how will such effects(i.e.,noise,visibility,etc.)be mitigated?
There are no publicly owned parks, forest or recreation areas adjacent to the
quarry.
11. Will fn
sivebe used?
YES F�NO
If yes,specify the types of explosive(s)and describe what precaution(s)will be used to prevent physical hazard to
persons or neighboring property from flying rocks or excessive air blasts or ground vibrations.Depending on the mine's
location to nearby structures,more detailed technical information may be required on the blasting program(such as a
third-party blasting study).Locate the nearest ollsite occupied structure(s)to the proposed excavation(s)on the mine
map and indicate its approximate distance to the proposed excavation.
Explosives will be utilized for rock extraction. The principal explosive material is ammonium nitrate,which is also
commonly used as a fertilizer. Blasting is conducted by a contractor. No explosives are stored onsite.
Shot patterns are designed to minimize air and ground vibrations and optimize rock breakage. Energy released via
an excess air blast or ground vibrations is wasted energy. The intent is to make each blast as efficient as possible by
reducing wasted energy.
Blasting is expected to occur between one and three times per week and will be appear similar to distant thunder
lasting less than a second.
Permanent records are maintained for each blasting event that include shot pattern,explosives loading,delays,time,
and weather.
12. Will fuel tanks,solvents,or other chemical reagents be stored on-site?
YES �NO
If yes,describe these materials,how they will be stoned and method of containment in case of spill Indicate the
location(s)of all storage facilities on the mine map(s).
Diesel fuel, bulk oil, used oil and gasoline may be stored onsite in containers
typical of industrial operation, such as drums, totes, and steel tanks. Petroleum
products are stored in accordance with spill prevention, control, and
countermeasure (SPCC) regulations. An SPCC plan is maintained for the site.
Solvents are handled by a third-party contractor (e.g., Noble Oil).
