Dear Ms. Wehner:
- Sip 2 2002-�
This is in answer to your letter of May 10, 2002 addressed to James K. Hill, Jr.
On June 17, 2002, Mr. Hill and I met with Doug Miller of the Mooresville Regional Office and
several other representatives of Land Quality to discuss the issues noted in your letter and Doug
Millers comments as they related to work on site.
After working to include revisions and modifications as recommended, I visited with Doug Miller
on August 23, 2002 for a review of the work completed.
Sheet No. 1 is sort of a compilation of the properties involve as well as the detail sheets 2 and 3.
Revisions to sheet 1 are:
Show all adjoining property owners.
2. Delineate the area to be disturbed (affected area) for easier recognition.
Clarified buffer zones and included a screening buffer around the proposed rock stock
pile.
4. Moved temporary boundary to provide more space for haul road and modified silt
basin.

5. Modified silt basin No. 1 for 70% sediment removal.
Other modifications or revisions include -
- Calculations based on 25 year stoma.
- Evidence of notification of County Manager.
- Completion of sheet 5 from the permit booklet.
Included in this packet are 2 set of plans and 2 copies of the documentation. I hope you find
everything in order. If there are any questions, please let me know.
Respectfixlly,
�� oo v' ,

Doug/CT:
Here are the pictures I took during our 6/17/2002 visit to the North
American Emerald Mines site. The last two pictures are pictures of the
adjacent Esmeralda Emerald Mine (unpermitted) site. Thanks for taking
the time to set up and attend the site visit with me
Tracy.
