HomeMy WebLinkAboutCombined Final Response to Questions 1-19Triangle Quarry Mining Permit 92-10 Expansion/Modification Application
NC DEMLR July 23, 2020 Request for Supplemental Information Letter
Question 1. Please provide any correspondence and/or documentation regarding environmental
review coordination (e.g. scoping requests, environmental assessments/impact
statements, categorical exclusions) with local municipalities, other state agencies, or
federal agencies for the proposed mine expansion.
WSC response:
Early in our due diligence period, Wake Stone determined that environmental review/coordination for a
project of this scope might potentially require review by local municipalities, various divisions within the
State of North Carolina's Department of Environmental Quality, and one or more federal agencies; with
primary review/oversight being with the Mining Program within NCDEMLR. In performance of due
diligence activities prior to submittal of the Mining Permit Modification Application, Wake Stone
considered all applicable local, State, and Federal land use and environmental regulatory programs
under which the proposed mine expansion might require review.
Local Municipality Review
The subject quarry expansion property, Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority's (RDUAA's) "Odd Fellows"
tract, is located outside the corporate limits of the nearby cities of Raleigh, Cary, and Morrisville.
Therefore, no oversight or approval of the project is required from them. The subject property is
situated within Wake County. Under the RDUAA's statutory authority to apply their own land use
regulations, no zoning or other land use permits are required from Wake County. This was confirmed by
the Wake County Manager's office. Wake County's Environmental Services Department, as the
delegated local administrator of the Federal Emergency Management Agency's floodplain management
program, has reviewed and accepted the "no -rise certification" flood study associated with the
proposed Crabtree Creek bridge crossing as submitted by Sungate Design Group, PA on behalf of
Michael Baker International (Wake Stone's retained bridge engineering design firm). A construction
permit will be sought from Wake County for construction of the bridge across Crabtree Creek once final
engineering design is completed. (See attached email chain from Timothy W. Maloney, Director of
Wake County Planning Development & Inspections.)
State of NC Environmental Review
Primary review responsibility for land disturbance activities associated with the expansion of the
Triangle Quarry (Mining Permit 92-10) is delegated to the Mining Program staff of NCDEMLR under the
Mining Act of 1971 (NCGS 74, Article 7). Engineering staff of the Raleigh Regional Office (RRO) have
provided technical review of the application materials as related to the proposed erosion and sediment
control structures/activities to be employed. RRO staff comments have been incorporated in DEMLR's
request for supplemental information and are being addressed individually later in this response
package.
The application was also forwarded to "sister" agencies within the Department of Environmental Quality
(the Division of Water Resources, the Division of Air Quality, the NC Geological Survey, the NC Wildlife
Resources Commission, and the NC Division of Parks and Recreation) for review and comment.
Comments received from these review agencies have been incorporated in DEMLR's request for
supplemental information and are being addressed in the order in which they occur in the ADI letter.
NC Division of Water Resources Review - Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rule
With the project area being located within the Neuse River basin, a determination was made as to the
applicability of the Neuse River Riparian Buffer Rule (15A NCAC 02B .0233) (NRRB). Staff of the Division
of Water Resources visited the site under the accompaniment of Soil and Environmental Consultants, PA
and conducted a buffer applicability determination. Stream features potentially subject to the NRRB
rule were identified in the Division's Buffer Determination Letter dated June 20, 2019 (copy attached).
Wake Stone's site development plans were devised in such a manner as to avoid impacts to any features
subject to the NRRB rule. Under the NRRB, bridges are treated as allowable uses. Allowable impacts to
the Neuse River Riparian Buffer (along Crabtree Creek) associated with the proposed Crabtree Creek
bridge crossing are identified in the NC DWR Buffer Authorization issued by the Division on June 4, 2020
(copy attached).
Federal Agency Environmental Review
Section 404 of the Federal Clean Water Act —Jurisdictional Wetlands and Waters
Wake Stone retained the environmental consulting firm Soil and Environmental Consultants, PA (S&EC)
for assistance with matters pertaining to streams, wetlands, and other potentially jurisdictional water
resources. A detailed delineation of all wetlands and waters was performed by staff of S&EC. All
identified wetlands and waters were field verified by staff of the US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE)
Raleigh Regulatory Field Office under Action Id No. SAW-2019-01286. Following USACE field verification
of all identified wetland and water features, S&EC prepared and submitted a request for an Approved
Jurisdictional Determination (AJD). The USACE issued the Approved Jurisdictional Determination on
January 15, 2020. A copy of the AJD was included in the Mining Permit Modification Application
package submitted to NCDEMLR on April 8, 2020 (copy attached). As identified and detailed in the
application submittal, Wake Stone proposes no impact to any identified jurisdictional wetlands or
waters. No USACE permit or NC DWR 401 Water Quality Certifications are required for the project.
National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
The FAA has determined that the National Environmental Policy Act is not applicable to locating a quarry
operation on the Oddfellows tract. Please see the attached April 29, 2019 letter from Steven Hicks,
Director of the FAA's Office of Airports Southern Region to Michael Landguth, President and CEO of
RDUAA discussing applicability of the NEPA.

From our previous meetings and discussions with Wake County government staff, we believe that the
only Wake County permit
we will need in regard to opening our quarry on RDU Airport land (should we get a State Mining Permit)
is a permit to construct the bridge over Crabtree Creek.
The State has asked us to get that in writing.
Would you mind having the correct person in Wake County government, respond to us by their own
email (showing their title and office credentials),
telling us exactly what is required and when we will need it. Of course, if something else is needed,
please include that, too.
Thank you very much.

1) E = Ephemeral, 1 = Intermittent, P = Perennial, NP = Not Present, NA=Not Applicable
(2) Refers to State riparian buffer rules only. Stream, wetland, or pond impacts are still subject to applicable water
quality standards and permitting requirements.
Explanation: The stream(s)/pond(s) listed above has been located on the most recent published NRCS Soil Survey
of Wake County, North Carolina and/or the most recent copy of the USGS Topographic map at a 1: 24,000 scale.
Each feature that is checked "Not Subject" has been determined to not be an intermittent stream, perennial stream, a
pond connected to a stream feature, or the feature is determined not to be present. Stream features that are checked
"Subject" have been located on the property and possess characteristics that qualify them to be subject to the buffer
rules. There may be other streams located on the property that are not depicted on the maps referenced above and
are therefore not subject to the buffer rules. However, if the stream features are present on the tract they are subject
to all other applicable North Carolina stream standards and permitting requirements as outlined in 15A NCAC 02B,
and may be considered jurisdictional according to the US Army Corps of Engineers.
This on -site determination shall expire five (5) years from the date of this letter. Landowners or
affected parties that dispute a determination made by the DWR may request a determination by
the Director. An appeal request must be made within sixty (60) days of date of this letter. A
request for a determination by the Director shall be referred to the Director in writing. If sending
via US Postal Service: c/o Karen Higgins; DWR — 401 & Buffer Permitting Unit; 1617 Mail Service

DWR — 401 & Buffer Permitting Unit; 512 N. Salisbury Street; Raleigh, NC 27604.
This determination is final and binding unless, as detailed above, unless an appeal is requested
within sixty (60) days.
This project may require a Section 404/401 Permit for the proposed activity. Any inquiries should
be directed to the US Army Corp of Engineers (Raleigh Regulatory Field Office) at (919)-554-4884.

Location description: The project area is located on the north side of I-40 and the east side of Old Reedy Creek Road in Cary,
Wake County, North Carolina. PIN: 0767324317. The project area is limited to the area within the line labeled "PL" on the
attached survey titled "Plat of Waters of the US Survey for Wake Stone Corporation."
Indicate Which of the Following Apply:
A. Preliminary Determination
❑ There appear to be waters, including wetlands on the above described project area/property, that may be subject to Section 404 of
the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). The
waters, including wetlands have been delineated, and the delineation has been verified by the Corps to be sufficiently accurate and
reliable. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated DATE. Therefore this
preliminary jurisdiction determination may be used in the permit evaluation process, including determining compensatory
mitigation. For purposes of computation of impacts, compensatory mitigation requirements, and other resource protection
measures, a permit decision made on the basis of a preliminary JD will treat all waters and wetlands that would be affected in any
way by the permitted activity on the site as if they are jurisdictional waters of the U.S. This preliminary determination is not an
appealable action under the Regulatory Program Administrative Appeal Process (Reference 33 CFR Part 331). However, you may
request an approved JD, which is an appealable action, by contacting the Corps district for further instruction.
❑ There appear to be waters, including wetlands on the above described project area/property, that may be subject to Section 404 of
the Clean Water Act (CWA)(33 USC § 1344) and/or Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403). However,
since the waters, including wetlands have not been properly delineated, this preliminary jurisdiction determination may not be
used in the permit evaluation process. Without a verified wetland delineation, this preliminary determination is merely an
effective presumption of CWA/RHA jurisdiction over all of the waters, including wetlands at the project area, which is not
sufficiently accurate and reliable to support an enforceable permit decision. We recommend that you have the waters, including
wetlands on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a
timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that can be verified by the Corps.
B. Approved Determination
❑ There are Navigable Waters of the United States within the above described project area/property subject to the permit
requirements of Section 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (RHA) (33 USC § 403) and Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(CWA)(33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in law or our published regulations, this determination may be relied upon for
a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
® There are waters, including wetlandson the above described project area/property subject to the permit requirements of
Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (CWA) (33 USC § 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ We recommend you have the waters, including wetlands on your project area/property delineated. As the Corps may not be
able to accomplish this wetland delineation in a timely manner, you may wish to obtain a consultant to conduct a delineation that
can be verified by the Corps.
❑ The waters, including wetlands on your project area/property have been delineated and the delineation has been verified by the
Corps. The approximate boundaries of these waters are shown on the enclosed delineation map dated DATE. We strongly
suggest you have this delineation surveyed. Upon completion, this survey should be reviewed and verified by the Corps. Once
verified, this survey will provide an accurate depiction of all areas subject to CWA jurisdiction on your property which, provided
there is no change in the law or our published regulations, may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years.
SAW-2019-01286
® The waters, including wetlands have been delineated and surveyed and are accurately depicted on the plat signed by
the Corps Regulatory Official identified below on 1/15/2020. Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ There are no waters of the U.S., to include wetlands, present on the above described project area/property which are subject to the
permit requirements of Section 404 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC 1344). Unless there is a change in the law or our published
regulations, this determination may be relied upon for a period not to exceed five years from the date of this notification.
❑ The property is located in one of the 20 Coastal Counties subject to regulation under the Coastal Area Management Act (LAMA).
You should contact the Division of Coastal Management in Morehead City, NC, at (252) 808-2808 to determine their
requirements.
Placement of dredged or fill material within waters of the US, including wetlands, without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Section 301 of the Clean Water Act (33 USC § 1311). Placement of dredged or fill material, construction or
placement of structures, or work within navigable waters of the United States without a Department of the Army permit may
constitute a violation of Sections 9 and/or 10 of the Rivers and Harbors Act (33 USC § 401 and/or 403). If you have any questions
regarding this determination and/or the Corps regulatory program, please contact David E. Bailey at (919) 554-4884 X 30 or
David.E.Bailev2 Ausace.army.mil.
C. Basis For Determination: See the Approved Jurisdictional Determination forms dated 01/15/2020.
D. Remarks: None.
E. Attention USDA Program Participants
This delineation/determination has been conducted to identify the limits of Corps' Clean Water Act jurisdiction for the particular site
identified in this request. The delineation/determination may not be valid for the wetland conservation provisions of the Food Security
Act of 1985. If you or your tenant are USDA Program participants, or anticipate participation in USDA programs, you should request
a certified wetland determination from the local office of the Natural Resources Conservation Service, prior to starting work.

Explain:
SECTION HI: CWA ANALYSIS
A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs
Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below.
s For purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TNW and that typically flows year-round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally"
(e.g., typically 3 months).
s Supporting documentation is presented in Section III.F.
-2-
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete
Section III.A.1 and Section III.D.1. only; if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2
and Section III.D.L; otherwise, see Section III.B below.
1. TNW
Identify TNW:
Summarize rationale supporting determination:
Wetland adjacent to TNW
Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent':
B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non -navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law.
If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the
waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is
the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section IILC below.

C. SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW?

and Section III.D.1.; otherwise, see Section III.B below.

Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent':
B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non -navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law.
If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the
waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is
the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below.

SECTION HI: CWA ANALYSIS
A. TNWs AND WETLANDS ADJACENT TO TNWs
Boxes checked below shall be supported by completing the appropriate sections in Section III below.
s For purposes of this form, an RPW is defined as a tributary that is not a TNW and that typically flows year-round or has continuous flow at least "seasonally"
(e.g., typically 3 months).
s Supporting documentation is presented in Section III.F.
-2-
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over TNWs and wetlands adjacent to TNWs. If the aquatic resource is a TNW, complete
Section III.A.1 and Section III.D.1. only; if the aquatic resource is a wetland adjacent to a TNW, complete Sections III.A.1 and 2
and Section III.D.1.; otherwise, see Section III.B below.
1. TNW
Identify TNW:
Summarize rationale supporting determination:
Wetland adjacent to TNW
Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent':
B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non -navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law.
If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the
waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is
the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below.

Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed:
C. SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW?
Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below:

Summarize rationale supporting conclusion that wetland is "adjacent':
B. CHARACTERISTICS OF TRIBUTARY (THAT IS NOT A TNW) AND ITS ADJACENT WETLANDS (IF ANY):
This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non -navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even
though a significant nexus finding is not required as a matter of law.
If the waterbody° is not an RPW, or a wetland directly abutting an RPW, a JD will require additional data to determine if the
waterbody has a significant nexus with a TNW. If the tributary has adjacent wetlands, the significant nexus evaluation must
consider the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands. This significant nexus evaluation that combines, for
analytical purposes, the tributary and all of its adjacent wetlands is used whether the review area identified in the JD request is
the tributary, or its adjacent wetlands, or both. If the JD covers a tributary with adjacent wetlands, complete Section III.B.1 for
the tributary, Section III.B.2 for any onsite wetlands, and Section III.B.3 for all wetlands adjacent to that tributary, both onsite
and offsite. The determination whether a significant nexus exists is determined in Section III.0 below.

the OHWM has been removed by development or agricultural practices). Where there is a break in the OHWM that is unrelated to the waterbody's flow
regime (e.g., flow over a rock outcrop or through a culvert), the agencies will look for indicators of flow above and below the break.

Directly abuts? (Y/N) Size (in acres) Directly abuts? (Y/N) Size (in acres)
Y 0.143
Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed: This wetland and others in similar
landscape positions receive preciptation-derived- and ground- water from surrounding land and occasional flooding
from abutting impoundment, retain and slowly release water, physically trap and retain sediment, allow
biogeochemical anaerobic processes (i.e. denitrification) to occur to improve water quality, and serve as
groundwater recharge areas. These wetlands serve as year-round cover and food source for a variety of typical
wildland-urban interface wildlife species.
C. SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW?
Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below:

This section summarizes information regarding characteristics of the tributary and its adjacent wetlands, if any, and it helps
determine whether or not the standards for jurisdiction established under Rapanos have been met.
The agencies will assert jurisdiction over non -navigable tributaries of TNWs where the tributaries are "relatively permanent
waters" (RPWs), i.e. tributaries that typically flow year-round or have continuous flow at least seasonally (e.g., typically 3
months). A wetland that directly abuts an RPW is also jurisdictional. If the aquatic resource is not a TNW, but has year-round
(perennial) flow, skip to Section III.D.2. If the aquatic resource is a wetland directly abutting a tributary with perennial flow,
skip to Section III.D.4.
A wetland that is adjacent to but that does not directly abut an RPW requires a significant nexus evaluation. Corps districts and
EPA regions will include in the record any available information that documents the existence of a significant nexus between a
relatively permanent tributary that is not perennial (and its adjacent wetlands if any) and a traditional navigable water, even

See attached list of similarly situated wetlands
based on USFWS NWI Mapping along relevant reach
of Crabtree Creek (Crabtree Creek floodplain (Zone AE)
along Stream Order 5)
Summarize overall biological, chemical and physical functions being performed: This wetland and others in similar
landscape positions receive preciptation-derived- and ground- water from surrounding land and occasional flooding
from adjacent RPWs, retain and slowly release water, physically trap and retain sediment, allow biogeochemical
anaerobic processes (i.e. denitrification) to occur to improve water quality, serve as breeding habitat for amphibian
species, and provide year-round cover, food source, and movement corridors for a variety of typical wildland-urban
interface wildlife species.
C. SIGNIFICANT NEXUS DETERMINATION
A significant nexus analysis will assess the flow characteristics and functions of the tributary itself and the functions performed
by any wetlands adjacent to the tributary to determine if they significantly affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity
of a TNW. For each of the following situations, a significant nexus exists if the tributary, in combination with all of its adjacent
wetlands, has more than a speculative or insubstantial effect on the chemical, physical and/or biological integrity of a TNW.
Considerations when evaluating significant nexus include, but are not limited to the volume, duration, and frequency of the flow
of water in the tributary and its proximity to a TNW, and the functions performed by the tributary and all its adjacent
wetlands. It is not appropriate to determine significant nexus based solely on any specific threshold of distance (e.g. between a
tributary and its adjacent wetland or between a tributary and the TNW). Similarly, the fact an adjacent wetland lies within or
outside of a floodplain is not solely determinative of significant nexus.
Draw connections between the features documented and the effects on the TNW, as identified in the Rapanos Guidance and
discussed in the Instructional Guidebook. Factors to consider include, for example:
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to carry pollutants or flood waters to
TNWs, or to reduce the amount of pollutants or flood waters reaching a TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), provide habitat and lifecycle support functions for fish and
other species, such as feeding, nesting, spawning, or rearing young for species that are present in the TNW?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have the capacity to transfer nutrients and organic carbon that
support downstream foodwebs?
• Does the tributary, in combination with its adjacent wetlands (if any), have other relationships to the physical, chemical, or
biological integrity of the TNW?
Note: the above list of considerations is not inclusive and other functions observed or known to occur should be documented
below:
Significant nexus findings for non-RPW that has no adjacent wetlands and flows directly or indirectly into TNWs. Explain
findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary itself, then go to Section III.D:
Significant nexus findings for non-RPW and its adjacent wetlands, where the non-RPW flows directly or indirectly into
TNWs. Explain findings of presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its
adjacent wetlands, then go to Section III.D:
Significant nexus findings for wetlands adjacent to an RPW but that do not directly abut the RPW. Explain findings of
presence or absence of significant nexus below, based on the tributary in combination with all of its adjacent wetlands, then go to
Section I1I.1): Wetland 2 is hydrologically connected to Crabtree Creek (perennial RPW) as an abutting wetland, and
Wetland 1 is hydrologically connected to Crabtree Creek given its position within a floodplain subject to occasional
flooding. Such wetlands have the capability to capture overland runnoff and floodwaters, retain and slowly release water
and organic carbon downstream, physically trap and retain sediment, and allow biogeochemical anaerobic processes (i.e.
denitrification) to occur to improve water quality. These actions limit sediment and nutrient input into Crabtree Creek,
designated by the NCDEQ as a Nutrient Sensitive Water, which flows directly to the Neuse River within 25 river miles.
Such wetlands also serve as breeding habitat for amphibian species, and provide year-round cover, food source, and
movement corridors for a variety of typical wildland-urban interface wildlife species. As such, Wetlands 1 and 2, and
-6-
similarly situated wetlands, affect the chemical, physical, and biological integrity of, and have a significant nexus with, the
Neuse River, a TNW.

President & CEO
Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority
1000 Trade Drive
P.O. Box 80001
RDLI Airport. NC 27623
Re: Lease Agreement between RDUAA and Wake Stone Corp.
Dear Mr. Landguth:
1701 Columbia Ave.
College Park, GA 30337
This is a follow-up to the letter dated March 21. 2019, from James Lofton. FAA Assistant Chief
Counsel, regarding the RDUAA mining lease (Lease) with the Wake Stone Corporation at the
Raleigh Durham International Airport (RDU). The RDUAA lease agreement involves
approximately 100 acres of airport property located 2.7 miles south of the RDU airport operations
area to the Wake Stone Corporation. This parcel of land borders an existing. oil=airport rock
quarry operated by the lessee. The existing quarry is approximately 8.967 feet from the nearest
aeronautical feature, and the quarry's expansion onto airport property, would be 8.822 feet from
the nearest aeronautical feature. The existing, approved ALP currently designates this parcel for
"Industrial/Quarry' use. The leasehold is comprised of land acquired by the RDUAA. with airport
revenue, between 1972 and 1984.
The FAA's Determination Regarding the Lease
In our March 21 letter, we explained the limitations Section 163(a) of the 2018 FAA
Reauthorization Act places on FAA's regulatory authority over: (1) the acquisition, use, lease.
encumbrance. transfer, or disposal of land by an airport owner or operator; (2) any facility upon
such land; or (3) any portion of such land or facility. We also explained the exceptions to those
limitations.
Based on: (1) information RDUAA has submitted to the FAA, and (2) a review of our records.
including the current Exhibit "A" map and relevant property deeds, we have made the following
determination:
• The lease does not appear to adversely affect the safe and efficient operation of
aircraft or safety of people and property on the ground related to aircraft
operations;
• No federal funding was used in the purchase of this parcel.
Therefore, the FAA will not require a release or other determination with respect to the lease.
Nevertheless, the FAA continues to have authority to ensure that RDUAA receives not less than
fair market value under the lease tenns and that the revenue received from the lease is used for the
capital or operating costs of the airport, in accordance with 49 U.S.C. Sections 47107(b) and
47133. The FAA may verify compliance with these requirements through a financial compliance
review, the enforcement of grant assurances, or other enforcement mechanisms at a later date.
Moreover, all of RDUAA's federal statutory and grant assurance obligations remain in effect
concerning the parcel. This includes the obligation under Grant Assurance 29 to maintain a current
ALP at all times. The FAA's review of the ALP indicates that the quarry as described in the lease
is already reflected on the ALP. However, should the leaseholder seek future expansion of the
quarry or other material revisions to the terms of the lease, then RDUAA should contact the FAA
to assure any proposed revisions to the lease do not change any of the conclusions reached in this
letter. RDUAA should retain sufficient authority over the parcel to prevent uses which conflict
with its federal obligations and related requirements or create conditions resulting in violations of
the assurances. Subordination clauses or other restrictions may be appropriate.
Applicability of the National Environmental Policy Act EPA
Because the FAA will not require a release or otherwise determine whether RDUAA properly
entered into the lease, and the ALP already reflects the quarry as described in the lease, there is no
FAA action subject to NEPA.
If you have further questions or need for clarification. please feel free to contact me at
404-305-6700.
Sincerely,
Steven Hicks
Director,
Office of Airports Southern Region
Question 2. The proposed mine expansion site, known as the Odd Fellows tract, appears to be
deeded to Wake County, Durham County, City of Raleigh, and City of Durham.
However, Wake County's tax map lists Raleigh -Durham International Airport as the
owner. Please provide substantiation or documentation to support your answers to
the following questions:
a. To whom is the title to the underlying property vested?
b. Does the entity identified in (a) meet the definition of a State Agency under GS
113A-9(9)?
c. Does the proposed mine expansion site include 10 or more acres of public land, as
defined in GS 113A-9(7)?
Response (provided by RDUAA)
2a.
[This information was provided by the Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority upon request.] There
are five parcels that make up Wake Stone's leasehold (sometimes referred to as the "Odd
Fellows Tract"). Three of these parcels are titled in the joint names of the City of Raleigh, the
City of Durham, Wake County and Durham County ("RDWD"). One parcel is titled in the joint
names of RDWD, care of RDU Airport. One parcel is titled in the name of Raleigh -Durham
Airport Authority ("RDUAA"). These parcels were all purchased with RDUAA funds.
Specifically, the deeds associated with the Odd Fellows Tract are recorded in the Wake County
Registry at:
(1) Deed Book 5054/Page 313 (filed February 16, 1972); Blanchard to RDWD
(2) Deed Book 2070/Page 69 (filed May 1, 1972); Barnes to RDWD
(3) Deed Book 2416/Page 433 (filed July 7, 1976); Sir Walter Lodge (the Odd Fellows) to
RDWD
(4) Deed Book 2489/Page 689 (filed April 1, 1977); Collins and others to RDWD "c/o
Raleigh -Durham Airport."
(5) Deed Book 3295/Page 80 (filed April 2/20, 1984); Joyner to Raleigh -Durham Airport
Authority.
RDUAA was created specifically by the North Carolina General Assembly in 1939 by
authorizing the establishment of the Airport and the creation of RDUAA to govern the Airport
property. (1939 N.C. Sess. Laws c.1) ("1939 Act"). The General Assembly has confirmed,
amended and enhanced the enabling legislation of RDUAA several times since 1939 through the
enactment of additional specific session laws that modify the 1939 Act or otherwise make
changes that refer specifically to RDUAA. See, e.g., 1945 N.C. Sess. Laws c. 79 ("1945 Act");
1955 N.C. Sess. Laws c 1096 ("1955 Act"); 1957 N.C. Sess. Laws c.455 ("1957 Act"); 1959
N.C. Sess. Laws c.755 ("1959 Act"). (These Acts and the 1939 Act may be referred to below as
the "RDUAA Acts".)
Starting with the 1939 Act and continuing through the remainder of the RDUAA Acts, the
General Assembly established that the RDUAA Board has "complete authority" over airport
lands jointly titled to RDWD. Therefore, pursuant to this statutory structure, these parcels were
purchased with RDUAA funds and jointly titled to RDWD in order to be under RDUAA's
complete authority'.
On November 8, 2019, an Order and judgment was entered in Wake County Superior Court in
The Umstead Coalition et al. v. RDUAA et al., 19 CVS 3859 and Plaintiffs' appeal is currently
before the North Carolina Court of Appeals. This order provides additional relevant information.
2b.
[This information was provided by the Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority upon request.] Neither
RDUAA nor RDWD meets the definition of a State agency under G.S. 113A-9 of SEPA, which
defines the phrase "state agency" to include:
every department, agency, institution, public authority, board, commission, bureau,
division, council, member of Council of State, or officer of the State government
of the State of North Carolina, but does not include local governmental units or
bodies such as cities, towns, other municipal corporations or political subdivisions
of the State, county or city boards of education, other local special-purpose public
districts, units or bodies of and, or private corporations created by act of the
General Assembly....
G.S. 113A-9(9) (emphasis added.) Clearly, RDWD are cities and counties, and are explicitly
excluded from SEPA's definition of State agency. As discussed below, RDUAA is properly
classified under that statute as either or both of the following classifications in the statute: (1) as
a "municipal corporation" or other "local governmental unit or body"; and/or (2) as a "local
special-purpose public district, unit or body. ,2 Thus, RDUAA is explicitly excluded from
SEPA's definition of State agency. 3
RDUAA was created specifically by the North Carolina General Assembly in 1939 by
authorizing the establishment of the Airport and the creation of RDUAA to govern the Airport
property. (1939 N.C. Sess. Laws c.l) ("1939 Act"). In doing so, the 1939 Act created a "special
' Beginning in the late 1970s and early1980s, airport property purchased by RDUAA was titled in its own
name.
2 SEPA defines a "special-purpose unit of government" to include "any special district or public authority." G.S.
113A-9(8). However, this phrase is used only in SEPA's section that allows a local government to require (through
the adoption of ordinance) an "environmental document" of either private developers or a "special-purpose unit of
government." G.S. 113A-8(a). This provision does not apply to this situation.
3 The remaining portion of G.S. 113A-9(9) not quoted provides that "in those instances where programs, projects
and actions of local governmental units or bodies are subject to review, approval or licensing by State agencies in
accordance with existing statutory authority, in which case local governmental units or bodies shall supply
information which may be required by such State agencies for preparation of any environmental statement required
by this Article." This language does not apply to this situation, since RDUAA is not, itself, undertaking any covered
activity; however, even if it were, this language would not make RDUAA a "state agency," but would simply
require it to supply information.
purpose local government" or a "special purpose" municipality. See, Kara K. Millonzi, "special
Purpose Local Governments and Public Authorities," Institute of Government (Feb. 10, 2015).
The North Carolina Supreme Court determined an airport authority created by act of the General
Assembly (as was RDUAA) to be a "quasi -municipal corporation of the type known since
McCulloch v. Maryland...." Greensboro -High Point Airport Authority v. Johnson, 226 N.C. 1,
9, 36 S.E.2d 803 (1946) (italics in the original).
The General Assembly has confirmed, amended and enhanced the enabling legislation of
RDUAA several times since 1939 through the enactment of additional specific session laws that
modify the 1939 Act or otherwise make changes that refer specifically to RDUAA. See, e.g.,
1945 N.C. Sess. Laws c. 79 ("1945 Act"); 1955 N.C. Sess. Laws c 1096 ("1955 Act"); 1957 N.C.
Sess. Laws c.455 ("1957 Act"); 1959 N.C. Sess. Laws c.755 ("1959 Act"). (These Acts and the
1939 Act may be referred to below as the "RDUAA Acts".)
The operation of public and municipal airports is governed generally by Chapter 63 of the
General Statutes governing Aeronautics, portions of which were enacted as early as 1929. G.S.
63-1 et seq. ("Chapter 63 ,)4 Under the 1957 Act, the provisions of Chapter 63 are supplemental
to the powers and authorities granted to it through the specific grants contain in the RDUAA
Acts. However, there are provisions of Chapter 63 that do not apply to RDUAA, such as the
provisions of G.S. 63-56 governing joint airports formed by joint agreement between multiple
local governments, which RDUAA was not: RDUAA was "formed" by the General Assembly.
To that end, through the 1957 Act, the General Assembly amended the airport's enabling
legislation to provide that "[i]n addition to all other rights and powers herein conferred, the
[RDUAA] ... is authorized and empowered to exercise the powers granted to municipalities by
the terms of Article 6, Chapter 63 of the General Statutes of North Carolina concerning public
airports and related facilities." While RDUAA falls within the definition of a municipality or a
"municipal authority," RDUAA is not a "city." See G.S. 160A-1(2) ("[t]he term `city' does not
include counties or municipal corporations organized for a special purpose").
Instead, RDUAA is properly characterized as a municipal special purpose unit of local
government as a "public corporation, authority, or district in this State, which is or may be
authorized by law to acquire, establish, construct, maintain, improve, and operate airports...."
See G.S. 63-1(a)(14). It is an independent governing body with authority provided by its own
enabling legislation.
On November 8, 2019, an Order and judgment was entered in Wake County Superior Court in
The Umstead Coalition et al. v. RDUAA et al., 19 CVS 3859 and Plaintiffs' appeal is currently
before the NC Court of Appeals. This order provides additional relevant information
4 Chapter 63 was largely enacted in its current form in 1945.
2c.
[This information was provided by the Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority upon request.] The
proposed mine expansion site does not include 10 or more acres of public land, as defined in GS
113A-9(7), because none of the land involved falls within the definition of "public land" under
Section 113A-9(7) of SEPA:
"Public land" means all land and interests therein, title of which is vested in the
State of North Carolina, in any State agency, or in the State for the use of and
agency or political subdivision of the State, and includes all vacant and
unappropriated land, swampland, submerged land, land acquired by the State by
virtue of being sold for taxes or by any other manner of acquisition, or escheated
land.
G.S. 113A-9(7) (emphasis added.) Thus, to be public land, title in the land must be vested in the
(1) State of North Carolina or (2) a State agency. The proposed mine site is not vested in the
State or a State agency; therefore, the proposed mine site is not "public land," as defined in G.S.
113A-9(7), let alone 10 acres or more of such land.
On November 8, 2019, an Order and judgment was entered in Wake County Superior Court in
The Umstead Coalition et al. v. RDUAA et al., 19 CVS 3859 and Plaintiffs' appeal is currently
before the NC Court of Appeals. This order provides additional relevant information.
Question 3. Does the proposed project involve any amount of public money, funding or other
assistance? If so, please identify the amount of public money, funding or other
assistance involved and the sources of such money, funding or other assistance.
Response (provided by RDUAA)
[This information was provided by the Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority upon request.]
RDUAA is not expending any public money, funding or other financial assistance that would
offset WSC's costs in leasing, permitting or operation of the mine. For purposes of answering
this Question 3, we assume that the phrases "public money," "public funding" and financial
assistance collectively have had the same meaning as the phrase "public moneys" as used in
SEPA.
RDUAA has leased the proposed mine expansion site to WSC in order to generate funds to
support the operations of RDU Airport. WSC has the sole responsibility under the lease to
undertake and finance all of the activities needed to permit, construct and operate the mine
contemplated under the propose mine expansion site. It is not RDUAA's responsibility to
undertake or pay for those actions.
On November 8, 2019, an Order and judgment was entered in Wake County Superior Court in
The Umstead Coalition et al. v. RDUAA et al., 19 CVS 3859 and Plaintiffs' appeal is currently
before the NC Court of Appeals. This order provides additional relevant information.
5 The phrase "other assistance" is so broad and ambiguous that RDUAA must assume that it is referring only to
financial assistance. RDUAA is supportive of WSC's proposed expansion and operation of the mine, so RDUAA
has made various statements or taken various actions that could be interpreted as being supportive of their efforts,
but we do not interpret Question 3 as covering those types of activities.
Question 4. Please provide documentation that the Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority has the
legal right and authority to lease the Odd Fellows tract and to sell the mineral rights
from this tract.
Response (provided by RDUAA)
[This information was provided by the Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority upon request.] On
November 8, 2019, an Order and judgment was entered in Wake County Superior Court in The
Umstead Coalition et al. v. RDUAA et al, 19 CVS 3859. That Order confirms that RDUAA had
the legal right and authority to enter into a mineral lease for the parcels known as the Odd
Fellows tract.
RDUAA's leasing authority derives from special statutes enacted by the General Assembly
starting in 1939. Per 1939 N.C. Public -Local Laws Ch. 168, § 7, as amended by 1955 N.C.
Sess. Laws ch. 1096, § 1, and 1959 N.C. Sess. Laws ch. 755, § 1, RDUAA has, among other
rights, the authority to lease land "without the joinder in the lease agreements of the owning
municipalities, to wit, the Counties of Wake and Durham, and the Cities of Raleigh and Durham"
for terms not to exceed 40 years. Furthermore, as held in the Order, the authority to lease
property in North Carolina includes the authority to enter into mineral leases. See Order at p.9.
The RDUAA Board consists of eight members, two of which are appointed by each of the Cities
and Counties. Pursuant to the statutory authority conferred by the General Assembly, RDUAA
regularly enters into multi -year leases without needing joinder of the City of Raleigh, City of
Durham, County of Wake, and County of Durham as intended by the legislation cited above.
RDUAA currently has at least 44 such leases.
The Order cited herein in currently on appeal to the North Carolina Court of Appeals, and
RDUAA is defending the judgment regarding its statutory leasing authority.

SUPERIOR COURT DIVISION
FILE NO. 19 CVS 3859
ORDER
THIS MATTER came on to be heard before the undersigned Superior Court
Judge on Defendants' Motions for Summary Judgment and on Plaintiffs' Motion for
Partial Summary Judgment and Motion for Preliminary Injunction. This Court held
a hearing on the motions on September 19, 2019.1 With Plaintiffs and Defendants
being represented by counsel, and after hearing all arguments, and reviewing the
record proper and Court file, the Court determines that there are no genuine issues
of material fact and finds the following:
UNDISPUTED FACTS
1. Plaintiff the Umstead Coalition is a North Carolina non-profit corporation that
is dedicated to the appreciation, use, and preservation of the William B.
Umstead State Park and the Richland Creek natural area.
2. Plaintiffs Randal L. Dunn, Jr. and Tamara Grant Dunn are residents of Wake
County, North Carolina and live at 2232 Old Reedy Creek Road, which is
1 As the Court explained at the hearing of this matter, the function of the Court is not to
question the wisdom of the lease by RDUAA or whether other, better alternative uses of the property
at issue exist, but rather, its function in this case is to determine whether RDUAA was entitled to
lease the property without the joinder of the owning municipalities and, if so, whether RDUAA
followed the proper procedures in doing so.
1
adjacent to property to be leased by Defendant Raleigh -Durham Airport
Authority (RDUAA) for use as a quarry.
3. Plaintiff William Doucette is a resident of Wake County, North Carolina and
member of the Umstead Coalition.
4. Plaintiff TORC (a/k/a Triangle Off -Road Cyclists) is a North Carolina non-
profit corporation with the stated mission of ensuring the future of mountain
biking in the Triangle Area of North Carolina through promotion of responsible
riding, establishment and maintenance of mountain biking trails, and
preservation of North Carolina's natural resources.
5. Defendant RDUAA is a municipal corporation established by the City of
Raleigh, City of Durham, County of Wake, and County of Durham pursuant to
Chapter 168 of the Public -Local Laws of 1939 (hereinafter, the "RDU
Charter"). RDUAA's principal office is located at 1000 Trade Drive, RDU
Airport, NC 27623.
6. Defendant Wake Stone is a North Carolina corporation having its principal
office located at 6821 Knightdale Boulevard, Knightdale, NC 27545.
7. RDUAA controls a 105-acre parcel of land (the "Property") located off of Reedy
Creek Road and adjacent to both the William B. Umstead State Park and an
existing stone quarry currently operated by Wake Stone.
8. Title to the Property is vested in the City of Raleigh, City of Durham, County
of Wake, and County of Durham, per the deeds recorded in the Wake County
Register of Deeds in Deed Book 2416, page 433; Deed Book 2489, page 689; and
Deed Book 2070, page 69.
9. On September 8, 2017, RDUAA made the Property available for lease.
10. RDUAA received two offers to lease or purchase the Property. One was an offer
to purchase from the North Carolina Conservation Fund on behalf of William
B. Umstead State Park, and the other was an offer from Wake Stone to lease
the Property for quarrying.
11. RDUAA initially declined both offers on October 19, 2017.
12.On February 27, 2019, RDUAA sent out an e-mail notice that there would be
a special meeting on March 1, 2019 at 9:00 a.m. to discuss a long-term lease
proposal from Wake Stone to operate a rock quarry on the Property.
2
13.At the March 1, 2019 meeting, seven of the eight members of the RDUAA board
voted to approve the proposed twenty -five-year lease of the Property to Wake
Stone. The remaining member of the board abstained from voting.
14.A number of protesters were present at the March 1, 2019 meeting, bu_t the
Board did not provide any opportunity for public comment regarding the
proposed lease.
15.On March 1, 2019, RDUAA and Wake Stone signed and executed a twenty-
five -year lease of the Property (the "Lease") to Wake Stone for operation of a
rock quarry. The Lease also contains an option clause to extend the Lease for
an additional term of ten years.
16. The Lease grants to Wake Stone, during its applicable term, the right "to have
and to hold the Premises together with all privileges and appurtenances
thereto ... for the sole and only use of [Wake Stone]."
17. RDUAA did not seek the input or approval of the Cities of Raleigh and Durham
and the Counties of Wake and Durham before entering into the Lease.
18. Revenue generated from the Lease is intended to help fund airport operations.
19. RDUAA is currently party to more than 40 leases of ten years or longer, and
the Cities of Raleigh and Durham and the Counties of Wake and Durham have
never asserted or sought approval authority over such leases.
20. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) directs that airport sponsors like
RDUAA use their non -aviation assets (such as non -aeronautical real property)
to generate revenues to subsidize aeronautical activities in order to reduce the
economic impact on aviation users and the aviation public.
21. The Property was included in multiple Airport Layout Plans including the one
approved by the FAA on November 20, 2017 in connection with RDUAA's long-
term development plan known as Vision 2040. That FAA -approved Airport
Layout Plan designated the Property for "industrial/quarry" use.
22. RDUAA acquired the Property with RDUAA funds and no federal funds or
grants from the FAA or other agency were used in the acquisition of the
Property.
23. Subsequent to the filing of Plaintiffs' complaint, the FAA also issued a letter
to RDUAA informing RDUAA that the FAA would not need to provide any sort
of release or approval in order for RDUAA to lease the Property.
3
24. There is no evidence that the Lease is inconsistent with any grant or
agreement under which the airport is held.
25. Plaintiffs filed their Verified Complaint for Declaratory Judgment and
Injunctive Relief on March 12, 2019 in which they assert three causes of action:
a. Plaintiffs request declaratory judgment that RDUAA had no authority
to authorize the Lease pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 63-56(f) without approval
of the Cities of Raleigh and Durham and the Counties of Wake and
Durham, that RDUAA violated the Open Meeting Law in N.C.G.S.
§ 143-318.9, and that RDUAA violated the procedures for the sale of real
property in N.C.G.S. § 160A-272(bl).
b. Plaintiffs request declaratory judgment that RDUAA violated federal
and North Carolina law by approving the Lease without approval of the
FAA as required by N.C.G.S. § 63-47.
c. Plaintiffs request a Temporary Restraining Order, Preliminary
Injunction, and Permanent Injunction.
26.On August 7, 2019, RDUAA filed its Motion to Dismiss and Motion for
Summary Judgment. RDUAA also filed a supporting memorandum asserting
that Plaintiffs' claims should be dismissed as a matter of law and that
Defendants are entitled to judgment as a matter of law because RDUAA had
specific statutory authority to enter into the Lease, the Lease did not violate
applicable FAA laws and regulations, and RDUAA's decision to enter into the
Lease was not subject to any other statutory constraints asserted by Plaintiffs.
27.On August 7, 2019, Plaintiffs also filed their Motion for Preliminary Injunction
and Motion for Partial Summary Judgment. In their supporting memorandum,
Plaintiffs reasserted arguments raised in their causes of action.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
1. Summary judgment is proper when "the pleadings, depositions, answers to
interrogatories, and admissions on file, together with the affidavits, if any,
show that there is no genuine issue as to any material fact and that any party
is entitled to a judgment as a matter of law." N.C.G.S. § 1A-1, Rule 56(c) (2017).
2. There is no genuine dispute as to the material facts found by the Court above.
Accordingly, the Court proceeds to determine whether any party is entitled to
judgment as a matter of law.
4
3. In 1929, the General Assembly enacted An Act Authorizing Cities, Towns and
Counties to Establish, Construct, Improve, Equip, Maintain and Op erate
Airports and/or Landing Fields (hereinafter "First N.C. Public Airport .duct").
1929 N.C. Pub. Laws ch. 87. This First N.C. Public Airport Act allowed
governing bodies of any city, town and county to "jointly acquire, establish,
construct, own, control, lease, equip, improve, maintain, operate, and regulate
airports," id. § 4, but it failed to provide how an airport that was jointly owned
would be operated.
4. In 1939, the RDU Charter enabled the Cities of Raleigh and Durham and the
Counties of Wake and Durham to create what is now known as Raleigh -
Durham International Airport. The legislation provided that the governing
bodies of the cities and counties appoint a board that was legislatively "vested
with the authority to control, lease, maintain, improve, operate, and regulate
the joint airport or landing field." 1939 N.C. Public -Local Laws ch. 168, § 7.
Section 7 further provided that the board would have "complete authority
over any airport or landing field jointly acquired by the several governmental
bodies represented on the board." Id. (emphasis added).
5. In 1945, the General Assembly enacted legislation entitled An Act Relating to
Aeronautics; Defining Terms; Providing for the Acquisition, Establishment,
Construction, Enlargement, Improvement, Maintenance, Equipment,
Operation and Regulation of Airports, Other Air Navigation Facilities and
Airport Protection Privileges by Municipalities; Permitting the Acceptance of
Federal Aid; Authorizing Joint Action by Municipalities, and to Make Uniform
the Law with Reference to Public Airports (hereinafter "Second N.C. Public
Airport Act"). 1945 N.C. Sess. Laws ch. 490. The Second N.C. Public Airport
Act expanded the First N.C. Public Airport Act and is now embodied in Chapter
63 of the North Carolina General Statutes.
6. The Second N.C. Public Airport Act filled the gap left by the First N.C. Public
Airport Act by providing for how airports jointly operated under the Second
N.C. Public Airport Act would be governed and operated. The Second N.C.
Public Airport Act provided, among other things, that: (1) municipalities may
by agreement jointly operate an airport, 1945 N.C. Sess. Laws ch. 490, § 9(b);
(2) municipalities may create a board for the purpose of operating an airport
and such a board would be vested with the powers given the municipalities, id.
§§ 9(d)-(f). However, unlike the complete authority legislatively vested in the
RDUAA, the municipalities could, by agreement, limit the power and authority
of the board. Id. § 9(f).
5
7. In 1946, Congress passed the Federal Airport Act, which established a federal
program for the development of civilian airports. Federal Airport Act of 1946,
Pub. L. No. 79-377, 60 Stat. 170 (1946); see generally 49 U.S.C. ch. 471. Among
many other things, the Federal Airport Act provides for grants to civilian
airports. 48 U.S.C. §§ 47104-47107. Upon acceptance of a grant or grants, the
civilian airport is required to enter into and abide by a grant agreement.
49 U.S.C. § 47108.
8. The powers granted to the RDUAA board were further defined in 1955 when
the General Assembly revised section 7 of the RDU Charter. Among other
powers and responsibilities, the RDUAA was authorized "[t]o lease (without
the joinder in the lease agreements of the owning municipalities, to wit, the
Counties of Wake and Durham, and the Cities of Raleigh and Durham) for a
term not to exceed 15 years, and for purposes not inconsistent with the grants
and agreements under which the said airport is held by said owning
municipalities, real or personal property under the supervision of or
administered by the said Authority." 1955 N.C. Sess. Laws ch. 1096, § 1. This
included the power "[t]o operate, own, control, regulate, lease or grant to others
the right to operate any airport premises, restaurants, apartments, hotels,
motels, agriculture fairs, tracks, motion picture shows, cafes, soda fountains,
or other businesses, amusements or concessions for a term not exceeding 15
years, as may appear to said Authority advantageous or conducive to the
development of said airport." Id.
9. The powers granted to the RDUAA board were further expanded by the
legislature in a 1957 amendment that stated, in part:
In addition to all other rights and powers [conferred in the
RDU Charter], the Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority ...
is authorized and empowered to exercise the powers
granted to municipalities by the terms of Article 6, Chapter
63, of the General Statutes of North Carolina concerning
public airports and related facilities.
1957 N.C. Sess. Laws ch. 455 § 2.
10. That power of the RDUAA to lease without joinder in the lease agreements of
the owning municipalities was confirmed and expanded by a 1959 amendment
that increased the authorized lease period to "a term not to exceed 40 years."
1959 N.C. Sess. Laws ch. 755, § 1.
1.1
11. Pursuant to these provisions, RDUAA has authority to enter into the Lease
with Wake Stone to operate a business that the authority finds advantageous
or conducive to the development of the airport because the Lease grants to
others the right to operate a business on airport property for a term shorter
than 40 years for the purpose of generating revenue for the airport.
12.Plaintiffs, citing Quinn v. Quinn, 243 N.C. App. 374, 777 S.E.2d 121 (2015)
(giving meaning to the word "otherwise"), and State v. Lee, 277 N.C. 242, 176
S.E.2d 772 (1970) (giving meaning to the phrase "other like weapons"), argue
that the phrase in the RDU Charter "other businesses, amusements or
concessions" is modified or limited by the types of business and uses
immediately preceding that phrase. Effectively, Plaintiffs argue that the other
businesses must be similar to restaurants, apartments, hotels, motels,
agricultural fairs, tracks, motion picture shows, cafes, and soda fountains
because, under the rule ejusdem generis,
where general words follow a designation of particular
subjects or things, the meaning of the general words will
ordinarily be presumed to be, and construed as, restricted
by the particular designations and as including only things
of the same kind, character and nature as those specifically
enumerated.
Quinn, 243 N.C. App. at 382, 777 S.E.2d at 126 (quoting Lee, 277 N.C. at 244,
176 S.E.2d at 774).
However, the Court of Appeals also stated in Quinn:
[A] court must be guided by the fundamental rule of
statutory construction that statutes in pari materia, and
all parts thereof, should be construed together and
compared with each other. Thus, courts must harmonize
such statutes, if possible, and give effect to each, that is, all
applicable laws on the same subject matter should be
construed together so as to produce a harmonious body of
legislation, if possible.
Id. at 381; 777 S.E.2d at 126 (citations omitted).
13. The original RDU Charter gave the RDUAA board complete authority over the
airport. Nothing in the amendments that followed reflects an intent by the
legislature to diminish that authority. Plaintiffs' argument runs contrary to a
7
reasonable reading of the legislation and ignores the General Assembly's broad
grant of authority to the RDUAA board.
14. Plaintiffs also ask this Court to view the phrase "other businesses" in isolation
from subsequent language in the RDU Charter in an attempt to make a
comparison to the catch-all phrases at issue in Quinn and Lee. To limit "other
businesses" to the preceding words "restaurants, apartments, hotels, motels,
agriculture fairs, tracks, motion picture shows, cafes, soda fountains" would
render the words "amusements or concessions" which follow the phrase "other
businesses" redundant as surplusage, as those types of businesses specifically
listed are essentially amusements and concessions. The phrase "other
businesses" must be construed and viewed in light of the remainder of the
sentence that follows, to wit, "other businesses, amusements or concessions for
a term not exceeding 15 years, as may appear to said Authority advantageous
or conducive to the development of said airport." 1955 N.C. Sess. Laws ch.
1096, § 1. Viewed in the light of the remainder of the sentence, it is clear that
the authority to lease extends to other businesses so long as the proposed
business appears to the RDUAA to be advantageous or conducive to the
development of the airport. This interpretation is consistent with the broad
grant of authority given to the RDUAA board.2
15. Furthermore, the Court concludes that the Lease is not inconsistent with any
grant or agreement under which the airport is held. The phrase "grant or
agreement" must refer to the grants and agreements by which RDUAA
operates an airport under the guidance and regulation, and with financial
contributions of the Department of Transportation/FAA under the Federal
Airport Act. The FAA has approved the industrial/quarry use designation of
the Property and maintains that its approval is not necessary for RDUAA to
lease the Property.
16. Because no federal funds were used to acquire the Property and because the
Lease is not subject to FAA approval, the Lease does not violate any federal
laws nor did RDUAA violate the section 63-47 provision that "public officers of
the State, counties and cities shall enforce the rules and regulations of the
Federal Aviation Administration." N.C.G.S. § 63-47 (2017).
2 To hold otherwise would first require each owning municipality to approve of the Lease, and
each owning municipality would thereafter have to agree to the terms of the Lease with the remaining
three owning municipalities. Such a result is not contemplated in any provision of the RDU Charter.
�:3
17. Plaintiffs argued for the first time at the hearing of this matter that the owning
municipalities need not be parties to the agreement but need only approve the
agreement. Nowhere is this apparent in the RDU Charter and it runs contrary
to the expansive powers given to the RDUAA board by the legislature.
Plaintiffs' contention that the governing authorities of the Cities of Raleigh
and Durham and Counties of Wake and Durham must approve the Lease runs
contrary not only to subsections 7(c) and 7(e) of the RDU Charter as amended
in 1959, which explicitly granted to RDUAA exclusive authority to lease the
Property, but also runs contrary to how RDUAA has historically leased
property without objection by the owning authorities. Moreover, with respect
to subsection 7(e) of the RDU Charter, as amended, in order to lease to other
businesses, it is only the RDUAA that must determine that the other business
is conducive or advantageous to the development of the airport.
18. Plaintiffs also are incorrect that the Lease conveys usage rights to the minerals
on the Property that exceeds the property rights associated with the ordinary
type of lease contemplated in the RDU Charter.
19. The term "lease" in the RDU Charter must also include mineral leases because
the General Assembly has indicated its ability and willingness elsewhere in
the General Statutes to exclude mineral leases from the general class of leases.
See N.C.G.S. § 22-2 (2017) (delineating "contracts for leasing land for the
purpose of digging for gold or other minerals, or for mining generally, of
whatever duration," and "all other leases and contracts for leasing lands
exceeding in duration three years" as contracts that must "be put in writing
and signed by the party to be charged therewith"). The General Assembly has
made no such distinction in the RDU Charter.
20.Additionally, the Lease does not represent a profit a prendre because "the
grant of a profit a prendre does not preclude the grantor from exercising a like
right upon the land or granting such right to others," State ex rel. Rohrer v.
Credle, 86 N.C. App. 633, 636, 359 S.E.2d 45, 47 (1987) (quoting Builders
Supplies Co. v. Gainey, 282 N.C. 261, 267, 192 S.E.2d 449, 453 (1972)), while
the language of the Lease here conveys "[a] possessory interest," which
"involves the exclusive possession of a certain space," Builders Supplies Co.,
282 N.C. at 270, 192 S.E.2d at 455.
21.RDUAA is not subject to any restrictions outlined in N.C.G.S. § 63-56(0
because RDUAA is not a board formed by an agreement between two or more
municipalities pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 63-56(d). It is instead an independent
7
creation of the General Assembly formed pursuant to the RDU Charter and its
powers are provided for in that legislation.
22. The RDU Charter was not superseded by the subsequent enactment of
N.C.G.S. § 63-56 because "[a] local statute enacted for a particular
municipality is intended to be exceptional, and for the benefit of such
municipality, and is not repealed by the enactment of a subsequent general
law." Bland v. City of Wilmington, 278 N.C. 657, 663, 180 S.E.2d 813, 817
(1971) (quoting City of Charlotte v. Kavanaugh, 221 N.C. 259, 263, 20 S-E.2d
97, 99 (1942)).
23. The General Assembly confirmed that RDUAA exercises statutory authority
outside of the powers of boards formed pursuant to section 63-56 when the
General Assembly stated in the 1957 amendments to the RDU Charter that,
"[i]n addition to all other rights and powers herein conferred, the Raleigh -
Durham Airport Authority ... is authorized and empowered to exercise the
powers granted to municipalities by the terms of Article 6, Chapter 63, of the
General Statutes of North Carolina concerning public airports and related
facilities." 1957 N.C. Sess. Laws ch. 455, § 2.
24. RDUAA satisfied the Open Meetings Law by discussing the Lease at a meeting
noticed to and open to the public, regardless of whether public comment was
allowed, because the Open Meetings Law requires only that the "hearings,
deliberations, and actions of [public bodies] be conducted openly." N.C.G.S.
§ 143-318.9; see also Sigma Constr. Co. v. Guilford Cty. Bd. of Educ., 144 N.C.
App. 376, 380-81, 547 S.E.2d 178, 181 (2001).
25. RDUAA is not subject to the requirements of N.C.G.S. § 160A-272 as asserted
by Plaintiffs because RDUAA is not a "city" as contemplated in that statute.
See N.C.G.S. § 160A-1 (2017) ("The term `city' does not include counties or
municipal corporations organized for a special purpose.").
26. As a matter of law, RDUAA has the statutory authority independent of the
Cities of Raleigh and Durham and the Counties of Wake and Durham to enter
into the Lease, and therefore, summary judgment in favor of Defendants is
proper.
As there are no genuine issues of material fact, Defendants are
entitled to judgment as a matter of law.
10
IT IS THEREFORE ORDERED AND ADJUDGED:
1. That Plaintiffs' Motion for Partial Summary Judgment is DENIED.
2. That Plaintiffs' Motion for Preliminary Injunction is DENIED.
3. That Defendants' Motions for Summary Judgment are GRANTED and the
plaintiffs' claims against them are hereby DISMISSED with prejudice
Signed this -(�— day of November, 2019.

Question 5. Please provide documentation that shows Wake Stone has complied with GS 74-
50(b1): the applicant or operator shall make a reasonable effort, satisfactory to the
Department, to notify:
(1) The chief administrative officer of each county and municipality in which any part
of the permitted area is located.
(2) The owners of record of land adjoining that lies within 1,000 feet of the permit
boundaries.
(3) The owners of record of land that lies directly across and is contiguous to any
highway; creek, stream, river, or other watercourse; railroad track; or utility or
other public right-of-way and that lies within 1,000 feet of the permit boundaries.
For purposes of this subdivision, "highway" means a highway, as defined in G.S.
20-4.01(13) that has four lanes of travel or less and that has not been designated a
part of the Interstate Highway System.
WSC response:
5(1). As previously mentioned, RDUAA's Odd Fellows tract (and Wake Stone Corporation's Triangle
Quarry property) are situated completely within the limits of Wake County. No portion of either
property lies within the corporate limits of the cities of Cary, Raleigh, or Morrisville. As such, "the chief
administrative officer of each county and municipality in which any part of the permitted area is
located" was determined to be Mr. David Ellis, County Manager for Wake County. On March 30, 2020,
notification of the proposed quarry expansion was sent by Certified Mail -Return Receipt Requested to:
Mr. David Ellis, Wake County Manager
PO Box 550
Raleigh, North Carolina 27602
(copy attached)
The notification included the "NOTICE" form from the Mining Permit Application booklet and a
generalize location map identifying the relevant properties. A copy of the notification letter was
included in the Mining Permit Application materials filed with NCDEMLR on April 8, 2020.
5(2) and (3). Staff of Wake Stone Corporation queried land ownership records found on Wake County
Tax Department web portal and determined the ownership of parcels lying within 1,000 feet of the
existing and proposed permit boundary. (Copies of Tax Cards are attached.) [Note: Parcels south of
Interstate Highway 40 (8 travel lanes) are excluded from the notification requirement pursuant to 74-50
(b1)(3).] Wake Stone's adjoining property ownership research identified 6 (six) adjoining owners to
whom notification letters, the "NOTICE" form, and a generalized location map were sent via Certified
Mail — Return Receipt Requested. Acknowledgement of delivery ("green cards") were received for all
notification but one. USPS tracking documented that that letter was received by the addressee although
the "green card" was apparently lost by the USPS. Adjoining owners requiring notification were
identified as:
State of North Carolina/Umstead State Park C/O Mr. Dwayne Patterson, Director
121 West Jones Street
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699-1615
Randall L. and Tamara G. Dunn
2232 Old Reedy Creek Road
Cary, North Carolina 27513
Betsy Carol Beals

PO Box 80001
Raleigh, North Carolina 27623
NC DOT Wake County District Office C/O Amy Neidringhaus, District Engineer
1575 Mail Service Center
Raleigh, North Carolina 27699
Copies of the "green cards" and the USPS tracking documentation (for Mrs. Beals) were forwarded to
Ms. Judy Wehner, Assistant State Mining Specialist via email on May 4, 2020. Copies of the notification
letters as mailed to the above named 7 individuals were included in the Mining Permit Modification
Application submitted to NCDEMLR on April 8, 2020. (Duplicate copies of the notification letters and
"green cards" returned are attached.)

2019) for PMloo, PMlo, and PM2.5.These estimated emissions are calculated by using generally
accepted emission factors from EPA (AP-42, Section 11) for crushing, screening, and conveying
of crushed stone processing operations. A material balance (total throughput for each piece of
equipment) is generated using engineering best estimates based on typical flow through the
processing plant and actual tons of each product produced for a given year (calculation
spreadsheets attached). It is important to note that these numbers are utilized by regulatory
authorities to determine permitting requirements and do not represent impacts on air quality at
or near the boundary of a permitted facility. In fact, if criteria pollutant emissions (such as PM1o)
are below 5 tons per year, a facility is considered a "very small source" and is eligible for
exemption from state air permitting. Facilities with emissions of 5 tons to 25 tons per year are
still considered "small sources" and are eligible for registration in lieu of permitting. Only
operations with emissions of 25 tons per year or more of criteria pollutants are required to be
permitted under the North Carolina Division of Air Quality. Wake Stone has elected to
voluntarily maintain its North Carolina Air Permit.

3-Generally accepted emission factors as published in AP-42, Section 11, Table 11.19.2-2. Application/use of "controlled" emission factors is justified based on the industry source testing sponsored by the National Stone Sand and Gravel Association
in cooperation wit the US EPA. Actual plant operation is with all control devices operating in order to comply with the opacity standards of NSPS.
4-For the purpose of estimating emissions, the 64" X 30' vibrating grizzly feeder at the primary crusher is treated as a screen and the controlled emissions factor for screens is utilized in the calculations.
Likewise, the 80 Ton surge bin and 25 ton sand bin are treated as conveyor transfer points and the controlled emissions factor for conveyors is utilized in the calculations.

Question 8. Please provide a description of the Company's dust suppression activities at the
current and proposed mine sites.
WSC response:
WSC's Triangle Quarry is covered under NC Division of Air Quality Permit No. 04386/R15 which details
our responsibilities for management of fugitive dust emissions generated from the stone mining and
processing activities at the site. At the currently operating quarry WSC utilizes a variety of industry
standard methods for control and management of fugitive dust emissions.
Pit operations, haul roads, and stockpile yard areas
In preparation of blasts areas, WSC utilizes down -hole hammer percussion rock drills equipped with
water injection devices for control of drill -generated dust. WSC uses an 8,000-gallon capacity water
truck for application of wet suppression sprays to active mine areas, haul roads, and customer travel
areas within the stockpile yard area. The water truck is also used to wet blasted rock muck piles in the
pit prior to loading for transport to the primary crushing station in the pit. Muck piles are typically wet
2-3 times per day during pit loading activities. Water is applied to in -pit haul roads and customer travel
areas on the stockpile yard area throughout the operational day. Water spray application typically
occurs once or twice per hour, or more frequently on an as -needed basis. Two fill -up stations are
available for use by the water truck operator, one at the -40' elevation in the pit and one on the lower
stockpile yard. Utilization of two fill -up stations improves efficiency and turn -around times due to the
haul road distances and stockyard areas requiring water application.
Customer entrance road and paved office parking areas
WSC utilizes a sprinkler system installed along the customer entrance road (Star Lane) to
minimize/control fugitive dust emissions from being generated by customer truck during ingress and
egress. The 8,000-gallon water truck is also utilized periodically for application of additional dust
suppression sprays to the entrance road, and in periodic washing of the paved road and parking areas.
Additionally, a contracted sweeper service performs weekly sweeping operations on Star Lane and the
immediately adjacent portion of North Harrison Avenue.
Processiniz plant dust control measures
Wet suppression spray devices are utilized throughout the primary and secondary stone processing
plants. Within the in -pit primary production plant, spray devices are located at:
• Truck dump hopper,
• Feed opening of the primary (jaw) crusher,
• At the tail end of Conveyor #1 beneath the primary crusher,
• On the 8'X16' scalping screen,
• At the feed opening of the 7' Standard Cone secondary crusher,
• At the tail end of Conveyor #3 beneath the secondary cone crusher, and on
• The transfer to Conveyor #4.
In the secondary processing plant, wet suppression spray devices are utilized at:
• The feed and discharge areas of the 7' tertiary and quaternary crushers, and
• On Conveyors C, F, G, J, and M.
Additionally, variable height radial stacking conveyors are used for stockpiling of unwashed products
(ABC and Screenings). Use of variable height stackers allows operations staff to monitor and minimize
product drop heights from the conveyor to the stockpile, thereby minimizing the opportunity for
generation of fugitive dust emissions. Water spray devices at the discharge end of these conveyors
further reduce emissions.
Vegetative controls
Vegetated earthen berms are in place along the common boundary with Umstead State Park and along
portions of 1-40. These berms are densely vegetated with pine and other tree species. In addition to
providing visual screening of the operation, the placement of these vegetated berms aid in containment
of fugitive dust emissions.
RDUAA Odd Fellows tract expansion area
Control of fugitive dust on the Odd Fellows tract pit expansion site will be by application of water sprays
to all active excavation and travel areas. The water truck will be utilized as needed during initial land
clearing/grubbing activities, during overburden removal activities, and during the construction of the
proposed perimeter earthen berms. Exposed soil areas will be minimized during all phases of site
development. Establishment of temporary and permanent vegetative cover will be employed in as
timely a manner as practicable during all phases of site development to minimize the extent of soil areas
exposed to wind erosion and traffic generated dust.
Question 9. Please provide the following information for the proposed bridge over Crabtree Creek:
a. Design and construction sequencing details.
b. Design considerations for wildlife passage along the Crabtree Creek corridor.
c. A storm water and sediment control management plan for run-on to and runoff
from the bridge.
WSC response:
9.a. Bridge Design and Construction Sequence
Design of the proposed bridge across Crabtree Creek has been contracted to the engineering design firm
Michael Baker International (MBI). MBI is well respected in the field of bridge design engineering.
Preliminary bridge design has been completed. Final engineering and development of construction
drawings will be completed upon receipt of the requested Mining Permit Modification. Following are
the basic design consideration for the proposed bridge:
• Provide an engineered bridge design to safely support loaded 65-ton capacity mine haul trucks.
• Provide sufficient bridge width to provide for two-way traffic for mine haul trucks.
• Design the bridge and bridge approaches such that there will be minimal disturbance to the
Neuse Riparian Buffer alongside Crabtree Creek.
• Design the bridge such that no support structure is required within Crabtree Creek and such that
end bents are placed outside of the 100-year floodway fringe.
• Design the bridge with no through -deck ("scupper") drains, and at a longitudinal gradient that
provides positive drainage across the bridge to the depleted Triangle Quarry pit.
As illustrated on the attached drawings, MBI has provided an initial bridge design that satisfies these
design considerations. The bridge will consist of poured -in -place concrete end bents (placed outside the
floodway fringe). The end bents will be set atop poured -in -place concrete footings. The concrete
footings will be supported by driven steel piles. Once the end bents and associated wing walls are in
place, compacted fill will be placed to proposed grade, and precast concrete beams set in place to
complete the bridge support structure. Following placement of the 72" Modified Bulb Tee beams, stay -
in -place corrugated metal forms will be installed to allow pouring of the V-3" thick solid concrete bridge
deck. Concrete barrier rails and concrete median barrier will be poured -in -place following bridge deck
slab installation.
Bridge Construction Sequence
• Flag clearing limits for bridge approaches, end bents, and wing walls.
• Clear and grub flagged area for bridge approaches, end bents, and wing walls.
• Install perimeter silt fencing/reinforced silt fencing/silt fence outlets and temporary basins #3
(and associated culvert and diversion channels) and #7 as illustrated on the E&SC Plan sheets.
• Excavate area required for foundations/footings. Remove spoil to suitable storage areas.
• Install driven HP 12 X 53 steel piles to refusal.
• Install forms for placement of concrete foundations/footings.
• Place concrete in foundations.
• Remove concrete forms from foundations once cured.
• Install forms for placement of concrete in end bents, pour end bents, and strip forms once
cured.
• Install forms for placement of concrete in wing walls, pour wing walls, and strip forms once
cured.
• Backfill approach areas behind end bents and wing walls.
• Set precast concrete beams.
• Form, pour, and strip concrete bridge deck.
• Form, pour, and strip concrete barrier rails and median barrier.
• Form, pour, and strip east end and west end approach slabs.
• Grade final approaches to provide positive drainage to the depleted Triangle Quarry pit.
• Install permanent seeding/establish ground cover on disturbed areas.
9.1b. Design considerations for wildlife passage along the Crabtree Creek corridor
In designing the bridge such that end bents are to be placed outside of the Crabtree Creek Floodway
Fringe, suitable wildlife passage zones will be maintained along both banks of Crabtree Creek. The
bridge design as discussed above and as illustrated on the accompanying preliminary design drawings
provides 10-12' of overhead clearance and 14-18' of width for wildlife passage. With no support
structure required within the creek, passage of aquatic organisms will be unaffected by the bridge.
9.c. A stormwater and sediment control management plan for run-on to and runoff from the bridge.
Temporary basin #3, temporary basin #7, and associated diversions and culverts will be constructed
prior to bridge construction. Once the end bent and wing walls are complete on the south end (east side
of Crabtree Creek) of the bridge, the approach area will be filled and compacted to final grade to
provide drainage to temporary basin #7 during the remainder of bridge construction. Once the
perimeter retaining wall on either side of the bridge is complete, the entire perimeter area, including
the bridge approach, will be graded to provide positive drainage to the existing quarry pit. Once the end
bent and wing walls on the west side of the Crabtree Creek are completed, the approach area between
the wing walls will be filled and compacted with a -0.5% grade from the end bent back to temporary
basin #3 for the for the remainder of bridge construction. Once the bridge deck and barrier rails are
completed, the approach area on the north end (west side of Crabtree Creek) of the bridge will be
brought to final grade to provide positive drainage across the bridge to the existing quarry pit. However,
all areas north of the wing walls will be graded to provide positive drainage to temporary basin #3 until
such time as pit development in the expansion area allows for capture, treatment, and discharge to the
existing pit.

Question 10. Please provide the following information for any proposed night-time production:
a. A description and explanation of any planned fixed or mobile lighting.
b. Submit a plan to reduce light pollution above current ambient levels.
WSC response:
Night-time Light Pollution Mitigation Plan
Wake Stone Corporation has no plans to operate the existing quarry or expansion pit beyond the hours
of daylight to dusk. As such, no fixed or mobile lighting are proposed or anticipated. Typical production
day hours at the Triangle Quarry are 06:30 AM to 6:00 PM. Should such night-time activities be
necessary, mobile light towers will be utilized only in the immediate work area. Such mobile light
sources will be directed towards the immediate work area in a manner to reduce or prevent elevation of
ambient light conditions beyond the permitted area.
Question 11. Please provide the following information for any proposed night-time maintenance:
a. A description and explanation of any planned fixed or mobile lighting.
b. Submit a plan to reduce light pollution above current ambient levels.
WSC response:
Night-time Maintenance Activity Light Pollution Mitigation Plan
At the current time, Wake Stone Corporation does not anticipate the need to perform night-time
maintenance activities. Time for Preventative Maintenance (PM) activities are included in weekly
production schedules. Should such night-time activities be necessary, mobile light towers will be utilized
only in the immediate work area. Such mobile light sources will be directed towards the repair or
maintenance work area in a manner to reduce or prevent elevation of ambient light conditions beyond
the permitted area.
Question 12. Please conduct an aquatic survey for the Atlantic pigtoe mussel in Crabtree Creek
within the project area of the proposed mine pit. We recommend consulting with the
US Fish and Wildlife Service for appropriate field survey methodologies.
WSC response:
Wake Stone Corporation contracted with the firm Alderman Environmental Services (AES) for
completion of the required freshwater mussel survey. On August 26, 2020 AES completed a survey of
Crabtree Creek. The survey was designed to target the Atlantic pigtoe mussel (Fusconaia masoni), but
all freshwater mussel species encountered were documented and population densities estimated. The
team of three biologist from AES surveyed Crabtree Creek from a point 400 meters downstream of the
eastern property boundary/permit boundary of the existing Triangle Quarry to the discharge tailrace of
the Lake Crabtree dam upstream of the North Cary Water Reclamation Plant effluent discharge point (a
stream length of 3,700 meters +/-). Although four individual freshwater mussel species were
documented, no representatives (living or dead) of the Atlantic pigtoe (Fusconaia masoni) were
located. A report prepared by AES summarizing their findings is attached.

BIOLOGICAL CONCLUSION
The Atlantic Pigtoe (Fusconaia masoni) has been documented within Crabtree Creek
downstream from the project area during past decades; however, there have been no
documented occurrences of the species within the Crabtree Creek Subbasin since 2003.
Since 2003, there have been significant increases in urbanization within the subbasin
resulting in significant increases in point and nonpoint pollution. For project planning
purposes, the Biological Conclusion is "No Effect on the Atlantic Pigtoe."
Question 13. Please provide a noise study that evaluates the potential for noise impacts to William
B. Umstead State Park (Umstead Park). The protocol for the study must be approved
by the Mining Program before the study is conducted.
WSC response:
Wake Stone Corporation has contracted with the firm WSP USA, Inc. to develop a noise study protocol
acceptable to the Mining Program staff of NCDEMLR. A modified study protocol was accepted by
DEMLR on November 5, 2020. A final report will be submitted to NCDEMLR upon completion of the
noise study.
Question 14. Please provide the following information concerning the berm along the northern and
western portions of the Odd Fellows tract:
a. How long will it take to construct the screening berm?
b. When will construction of the screening berm begin?
c. How will the berm be vegetated, including the number and type of trees to be
planted?
d. What is the long-term maintenance plan for the vegetated berms?
WSC response:
As proposed, the visual screening berms will require placement, rough shaping, and final grading of
approximately 85,000 cubic yards of fill material. We anticipate this process will take on the order of 2
months to complete. Construction of the perimeter berms will be initiated as early as possible in the
site development activities. It is our intention to have the berms in place and stabilized with vegetation
as soon as is possible.
Once the bridge across Crabtree Creek is in place (a process that is estimated to take upwards of one
year to complete),site access will be established to allow internal mobilization of the grading equipment
necessary for the initial overburden removal and berm construction activities. Our plan is to utilize the
fill material generated during initial pit stripping and grading of the 280' elevation staging area in the
construction of the perimeter berms. Berm construction will begin at the eastern end of the berm
illustrated along the boundary with Umstead Park and progress to the west to the northeast corner of
the Dunn property. For the berm proposed along Old Reedy Creek Road, construction will progress from
the southwest terminus back to the northeast along Old Reedy Creek Road and progress around the
Dunn tract for connection at the northeast corner of the Dunn tract.
As berm segments are brought to final lines and grades, seasonally appropriate grasses will be planted
for surface stabilization. Pursuant to the suggestions of the NC Wildlife Resources Commission during
their review of the application, native warm season grasses will be utilized to the extent practicable.
Strict use of native warm season grasses is not likely due to the seeding difficulties associated with those
grasses. Native warm season grass seeds tend to be "fluffy'/bearded, and for successful establishment
typically require placement by specialized planting equipment (warm season grass drill). Such
equipment (drills) cannot be operated on steep slopes such as berms. Our primary goal will be the
timely establishment of grass cover to prevent erosion on the newly established berm slopes, with a
secondary goal of utilizing native warm season grasses where appropriate.
Once berm slopes are adequately stabilized with grasses and require no further grading or other slope
repair activities, installation of tree species may occur. In the past, Wake Stone Corporation has
successfully employed loblolly pine plantings on berm slopes to augment the visual and noise buffering
provided by such earthen structures. Loblolly pine seedlings experience rapid growth, and when
planted at a spacing of 10' along rows 7' apart in a staggered pattern along berm slopes (approx. 620
seedlings/acre), provide tremendous visual screening value in just a few years. Wake Stone anticipates
installing loblolly pine plantings (as bare root seedlings) within the first or second dormant season
following successful establishment of grass cover. It is anticipated that loblolly pines will be planted on
both internal and external slopes of the berms. We also anticipate a certain amount of natural
regeneration by native hardwoods due to the proximity of existing mature mixed pine and hardwood
trees throughout the Odd Fellows tract an on adjoining Umstead Park property.
Throughout the life of the quarry expansion project, berm slopes will be monitored and repaired as
necessary. Dense vegetative cover will be maintained. Diseased, dead, or damaged trees will be
removed and/or replaced as necessary to retain esthetically pleasing vegetative cover, particularly on
those external slopes that will potentially be visible to the public.
Question 15. Please provide additional information regarding screening for the following locations:
a. Future reserve section — The operation would be visible to 1-40 and parts of Old Reedy Creek
Road.
b. East side of the proposed pit — Pit operations may be visible from Umstead Park.
WSC response:
a) The future reserve area will not be logged or cleared as part of this permit action, and therefore
provides 1000-1400 feet of undisturbed vegetation between Interstate 40 and the southern end
of Old Reedy Creek Road from any proposed mining activity. In addition, the 1-40 right of way
provides an additional 100-200 feet of dense vegetation, and the topography rises sharply above
1-40. The dense, mature hardwood and pine vegetation on this slope rises well above the line of
site for any proposed mining activity. The photo below clearly illustrates that there is no need
for additional screening in this area. However, conditions will be evaluated again at such time as
a mining permit modification application is submitted to impact the future reserves, and
additional berming and/or vegetative screening will be considered at that time if warranted.
_y
s
View looking northeast from Old Reedy Creek Road bridge over 1-40
b) On the east side of the proposed pit, additional undisturbed dense vegetation exists on both
sides of Foxcroft Lake. Additionally, the topographic ridge east of Foxcroft Lake and the ridge
across Crabtree Creek on the existing mine site (which extends 50 feet vertically above creek
level) provide attenuation of line -of -site views from Umstead State Park. These buffered areas
provide complete screening for most of the Park. The only area of the park with the potential for
visibility into the mining operation is the small area immediately to the northeast of Foxcroft
Lake along the property boundary. The photos below illustrate the dense vegetation on either
side of Foxcroft Lake. The west side of the lake will have a 50'+ undisturbed buffer, and the
topography rises 10-18 feet in elevation in this buffer. It is also important to note that initial
stripping and pit development will be in the area west of Foxcroft Lake, which will very quickly
put all mining activity in this area below grade and behind a cut -slope that will essentially act as
an already vegetated, undisturbed visual and noise attenuating berm. If upon clearing the area
west of Foxcroft Lake it is determined that operations are visible from the park, additional
screening could be added in the form of dense evergreen vegetation or fabric screening on the
proposed security fence.

Question 16. Please provide a certification from a qualified professional engineer that the
geological structure with retaining walls left between Crabtree Creek and the pits will
not breach, fail, or overtop in a major storm event.
WSC response:
As part of the due diligence activities undertaken during the planning phase of this quarry expansion
project, Wake Stone examined published flood elevation data for Crabtree Creek available through the
National Flood Insurance Program. Panel 0766 of Flood Insurance Rate Map (FIRM) Number
3720076600J provides engineering estimates of the "100-Year Flood" (1% Annual Chance Flood) water
surface elevation for the portion of Crabtree Creek situated between the existing Triangle Quarry Pit and
the Odd Fellows Tract. Surveyed channel cross sections illustrated on the FIRM place the 100-Year Flood
elevation for Crabtree Creek at elevation 266.6' MSL just upstream of the 1-40 overpass bridges and
elevation 261.3' MSL at the location of Wake Stone's proposed bridge crossing. As discussed elsewhere
in the application materials, the proposed bridge was designed in such a manner as to prevent the need
for placement of any portion of the bridge support structures within the channel of Crabtree Creek,
within the regulatory "floodway", or within the "floodway fringe". The bridge deck is to be placed at
elevation 280' MSL +/- (see response to Question #9 above).
All proposed pit development planning for the Odd Fellows Tract expansion (as illustrated on Site Plan
maps and Erosion and Sediment Control Plan maps submitted as part of the Mining Permit Modification
Application) utilized the 100-year flood elevation as the design flood elevation. All development
activities have been designed in such a manner as to provide protection against potential future flooding
events — all activities planned will be located well above the reported 100-year flood elevation for
Crabtree Creek. The minimum existing land surface elevation near any proposed development activities
occurs along the south side of the proposed pit in the vicinity of Skimmer Sediment Basin No. 4, where
the basin embankment will be constructed. The base flood elevation of Crabtree Creek in this area is
estimated to be elevation 264'MSL +/- (based on interpolation of data provided on FIRM Map
3720076600J). Construction of the basin embankment (which is designed to serve as a future perimeter
roadway) at a planned width of 18' and crest elevation of 272' MSL provides an additional 8' of
freeboard above 100-year flood elevation. Once this basin is decommissioned following overburden
removal activities, the embankment will remain as an elevated pit perimeter roadway for passenger
vehicles. As such, the roadway will provide flood protection throughout the life of the operation and
during post -reclamation usage of the property.
The existence of Lake Crabtree immediately upstream of the project area provides protection against
potential future flooding events. Lake Crabtree was constructed in 1987 under the Watershed
Protection and Flood Prevention Act of 1954. Multiple public agencies participated in construction of
the flood control project (the Wake County Board of Commissioners, the Wake and Durham Soil and
Water Conservation Districts, and Soil Conservation Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture). The
water surface area of the lake is approximately 520 acres at an average normal pool elevation of 276'
MSL (as indicated by published Wake County GIS LIDAR and NOAA LIDAR topographic mapping). The
100-year flood pool area for the lake encompasses approximately 1,150 acres, with a total flood storage
of 6,915 acre-feet (information bronze plaque posted at the lake dam). The 100-year base flood
elevation for Lake Crabtree is indicated to be at elevation 282.6' MSL (FIRM Number 3720076600J,
Panels 0766 and 0765). The trapezoidal emergency spillway for the lake has a crest elevation of 284.25'
MSL (according to published NOAA LIDAR mapping). Lake Crabtree is designed to store the 100-year
flood event without activation of the emergency spillway. Based on the flood protection provided by
Lake Crabtree and the vertical (elevation) and lateral setback distances designed into quarry related
development activities, Wake Stone is confident that flood breaching of the existing or proposed pit
walls will not occur.

Question 17. Please provide a determination from the Division of Waste Management, that the
disposal of surplus overburden from the proposed modification area and pit into the
existing pit is acceptable.
WSC response:
Wake Stone Corporation contacted Mr. Jason Watkins of the North Carolina Division of Waste
Management concerning placement of overburden from the expansion pit into the depleted Triangle
Quarry pit. Mr. Watkins has responded via email that such mining refuse is specifically excluded from
the current statutory definition of solid waste provided in G.S. 130A-290(35) and is covered by the North
Carolina Mining Act (G.S. 74-46 through 74-68). Mr. Watkins states that "As long as the overburden
material in question isn't a hazardous waste, it meets the Mining Act definition of mining refuse, and
complies with all other conditions of any DEMLR issued mining permit, it would be outside Solid Waste
Section regulatory authority". (See attached email chain between David F. Lee of Wake Stone
Corporation and Jason Watkins of the Division of Waste Management.)
It is Wake Stone Corporation's belief that overburden removed from the expansion site constitutes
mining "refuse" as defined in G.S. 74-49. (14). "Refuse" means all waste soil, rock, mineral, scrap,
tailings, slimes, and other material directly connected with the mining, cleaning, and preparation of
substances mined...". Any other waste materials generated during the mining and processing activities,
that do not fit the definition of mining refuse are/will be disposed of/recycled off -site through accepted
waste management procedures.

Subject: RE: [External] Triangle Quarry Expansion - overburden storage
Mr. Lee,
Regarding the placement of the future generated overburden material into/onto the existing pit property for
reclamation or other reuse, we offer the following response to your inquiry:
The current statutory definition of solid waste 130A-290(35) specifically excludes: "(e) Mining refuse covered by the
North Carolina Mining Act, G.S. 74-46 through 74-68 and regulated by the North Carolina Mining Commission (as
defined under G.S. 14313-293.1). However, any specific mining waste that meets the criteria for hazardous waste under
RCRA shall also be a solid waste for the purposes of this Article."
As long as the overburden material in question isn't a hazardous waste, it meets the Mining Act definition of mining
refuse, and complies with all other conditions of any DEMLR issued mining permit, it would be outside Solid Waste
Section regulatory authority. The improper management or disposal of the material in question could subject this
determination to re-evaluation.
Hope this helps. Let me now if you need anything additional.

Management Summary
Between 12 and 20 August 2020, Archaeological Consultants of the Carolinas, Inc., conducted an
archaeological survey of the Oddfellows tract located in Wake County, North Carolina. This investigation
was conducted on behalf of the Wake Stone Corporation. This survey was requested by the North Carolinas
State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) in a letter dated 7 May 2020. The goals of this investigation
were to identify all archaeological resources located within the project tract, assess those resources for
eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and advance management recommendations,
as appropriate.
The project tract is approximately 105 acres (42.5 ha) in size and is located south of the Raleigh -
Durham Airport (RDU). The tract is bounded by Old Reedy Creek Road on the northwest, Umstead State
Park on the north, and Crabtree Creek on the southeast and southwest. The tract is primarily characterized
by a mixed pine and hardwood forest. A small pond is present in the eastern portion of the tract, and several
trails extend throughout the tract.
Background research was conducted at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) located in Raleigh
and included a review of archaeological site forms, cultural resource reports, and historic maps of the project
area. No previously recorded archaeological sites are located in the project tract. A review of the Office of
Survey and Planning's website (HPOWEB) was also consulted to determine the presence of any recorded
architectural resources within the project tract. None are present in the project tract.
Prior to beginning field work, factors such as soil drainage and topography were used to define
portions of the project tract that had high potential for the presence of archaeological deposits. These areas
total approximately 35 acres (14.2 ha) and include ridge tops, knolls, and ridge toes. Shovel tests were
excavated at 30-meter intervals along parallel transects spaced 30 meters apart in high potential areas. The
remaining 70 acres (28.3 ha) were considered to have low archaeological potential. Low potential areas
were surveyed by pedestrian walkover and judgmentally placed shovel tests. All areas of exposed ground
surface, including the cleared trails, were inspected for cultural remains.
Five archaeological sites (31 WA2327 through 31 WA2331) were identified during this
investigation (Table i.1). These sites include two prehistoric sites and three historic sites. The prehistoric
components are of an unknown age. The historic components date to the twentieth century. These resources
have been adequately documented during this investigation and determined to be unlikely to yield
significant data pertaining to the prehistory or history of the area. All identified archaeological sites are
recommended not eligible for the NRHP. As no significant archaeological sites will be impacted by the
proposed development, clearance to proceed is recommended.

Chapter 1. Introduction
Between 12 and 20 August 2020, Archaeological Consultants of the Carolinas, Inc., conducted an
archaeological survey of the Oddfellows tract located in Wake County, North Carolina. This investigation
was conducted on behalf of the Wake Stone Corporation. This survey was requested by the North Carolinas
State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) in a letter dated 7 May 2020. The goals of this investigation
were to identify all archaeological resources located within the project tract, assess those resources for
eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and advance management recommendations,
as appropriate. Mr. Bobby Southerlin served as Principal Investigator. Mr. Luan Cao served as Field
Director. He was assisted by Ms. Abigail McCoy and Mr. Robert Jordan. The project was conducted over
12 person days.
Project Tract
The project tract is located south of the
Raleigh -Durham Airport (RDU) near the
western boundary of Wake County (Figure 1.1).
The tract measures approximately 105 acres
(42.5 ha) in size and is bounded by Old Reedy
Creek Road on the northwest, Umstead State
Park on the north, and Crabtree Creek on the
southeast and southwest (Figure 1.2). The tract
is primarily characterized by a mixed pine and
hardwood forest (Figure 1.3). A small pond is
present in the eastern portion of the tract (Figure
1.4). Metavolcanic and quartz outcrops are
present in several areas within the tract,
particularly along Crabtree Creek (Figures 1.5
and 1.6). An extensive network of walking and
bicycle trails is present throughout the tract
(Figure 1.7). Figure 1.8 presents a view of the
Crabtree Creek frontage. An aerial view of the
project tract is presented in Figure 1.9.
Methods of Investigation
This investigation consisted of four

Background Research. Background research began with a review of archaeological site forms,
maps, and reports on file at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) in Raleigh, North Carolina, as well as
the Office of Survey and Planning's website (HPOWEB). This review served to identify previously
recorded resources in the project tract and its vicinity, in addition to providing data on the prehistoric and
historical context of the project tract.

Figure 1.2. Topographic map showing the project tract (1993 Cary, NC USGS 7.5-minute topographic
quadrangle).
Background research also included a review of available historic aerials, historic maps including
the 1871 Map of Wake County, 1914 Wake County soil map, and 1938 Wake County highway map, and
USGS topographic maps dating between 1943 and 2002.In addition, we were able to identify details of the
project area using aerial photographs from 1938, 1959, and the 1970s. Background research also included
a chain of title review. In addition. communications with the Independent Order of Odd Fellows Sir Walter
Raleigh Lodge 411 were established to understand land use during their ownership of part of the tract.
Field Investigations. Close -interval contour topographic maps, Light Detecting and Ranging
(LiDAR) images, and soil data of the survey area were consulted prior to initiation of fieldwork. These data
were used to identify portions of the tract with high potential for the presence of archaeological remains
prior to commencement of fieldwork. Approximately 35 acres (14.2 ha) within the project tract were
defined as having high potential. These areas were comprised of uplands and ridge toes adjacent to
drainages and wetlands. Figure 1.10 presents a map showing the defined high potential areas and the
locations of shovel tests. The remaining 70 acres (28.3 ha) were considered to have low archaeological
potential. Low potential areas were surveyed by pedestrian walkover and judgmentally placed shovel tests.
All areas of exposed ground surface, including the cleared trails, were inspected for cultural remains.

Excavated shovel tests measured approximately 30 centimeters in diameter and were excavated to
10 centimeters into subsoil or to the water table. Shovel test fill was screened through 0.25-inch wire mesh.
Details of artifacts and soils for each shovel test were recorded in field notebooks. Artifacts were collected
and placed in plastic bags labeled with the date, field site number, grid point locations (i.e., shovel
test/transect or north/east coordinate), depth of artifacts, and initials of the excavator. To delineate
archaeological resources, a combination of surface inspection and short interval (15-meter) shovel testing
was used.
A site is defined as an area containing one or more artifacts within a 30-meter (98 ft) or less diameter
of surface exposure or where surface or subsurface cultural features are present. Artifacts and/or features
less than 50 years in age would not be considered a site without a specific research or management reason.
Site settings were photographed with a digital camera. Sketch maps were produced in the field showing the
locations of shovel tests and surface finds. The location of each site was recorded using a Trimble Pathfinder
Global Positioning System (GPS) unit and relayed onto project maps. Field investigations also included
metal detection at selected archaeological sites. A Fisher F-75 metal detector was used. Metal detection hits
were recorded with the Trimble GPS unit.

Site significance is based on the site's ability to contribute to our understanding of past lifeways,
and its subsequent eligibility for listing on the NRHP. Department of Interior regulations (36 CFR Part 60)
established criteria that must be met for an archaeological site or historic resource to be considered
significant, or eligible for the NRHP (Townsend et al. 1993). Under these criteria, a site can be defined as
significant if it retains integrity of "location, design, setting, materials, workmanship, feeling, and
association" and if it A) is associated with events that have made a significant contribution to the broad
pattern of history; The primary goals of this field investigation were to identify archaeological resources
and evaluate their potential research value or significance. Although the determination of the site
significance is made by the SHPO, whenever possible, sufficient data is gathered to allow us to make a
significance recommendation. Sites that exhibit little or no further research potential are recommended not
eligible for the NRHP, and no further investigation is proposed. Sites for which insufficient data could be
obtained at the survey level are considered unassessed and preservation or more in-depth investigation is
advocated. It is rare for ample data to be recovered at the survey level of investigation to definitively
determine that a site meets NRHP eligibility criteria. However, when this occurs, the site is recommended
eligible for the NRHP. Again, preservation of the resource is advocated. If preservation is not possible,
mitigation options (e.g., data recovery) would need to be considered.
Laboratory Analysis. All recovered cultural material was processed in the Clayton laboratory
facilities of ACC. All artifacts were washed and allowed to thoroughly air dry. A provenience number,
based on artifact contexts (i.e., grid coordinate, depth, etc.), was assigned to each positive excavation
Inc. Oddfellows Tract
Wake County, North Carolina

location. Within each provenience, individual artifacts or artifact classes were then assigned a catalog
number. Artifacts were cataloged based on specific morphological characteristics such as material in the
case of lithics, and decoration and temper type in the case of prehistoric ceramics.
Diagnostic prehistoric artifacts were compared to published type descriptions (e.g., Charles and
Moore 2018; Coe 1964; Herbert 2009; Oliver 1999; Peck 1982; Sassaman 1993; Ward and Davis 1999;
and Whatley 2002;) and cataloged by type when possible. Lithics artifacts were examined in detail and
classified by artifact type and raw material.
Historic artifacts were identified by color, material of manufacture (e.g., ceramics), type (e.g.,
slipware), form (e.g., bowl, plate), method of manufacture (e.g., molded), period of manufacture (e.g., 1780-
1820), and intended function (e.g., tableware). Historic artifacts with established manufacture date ranges
were categorized using Aultman et al. (2016), Brown (1982), Feldhues (1995), Florida Museum of Natural
History (FLMNH; 2009), Majewski and O'Brien (1987), Noel Hume (1969), and South (1977, 2004).
Artifact descriptions, counts, and weights were recorded, and all diagnostic and cross -mended artifacts were
labeled with a solution of Acryloid B-72 and acid -free permanent ink.
All artifacts were placed in acid -free resealable plastic bags with acid -free labels listing the
provenience and field identification information. Upon acceptance of the final project report, all analysis
sheets, field notes, photographs, maps, and artifacts will be prepared according to federal guidelines and
submitted to OSA for final curation.
Report Production. Report production involved the compilation of all data gathered during the
previous tasks. This report includes a discussion of the investigation methods, background findings, field
survey results, and management recommendations. Each individual site is discussed and shown on a variety
of project maps. The data obtained from laboratory analyses, background research, and field investigations
is included in the site discussions. Finally, the report includes an assessment of the NRHP eligibility of each
archaeological site recorded during this investigation.

Chapter 2. Environmental and Cultural Overview
Environmental Overview
Wake County is located in central North Carolina and encompasses 864 square miles (2,238 square
km; Cawthorn 1970). The county is bounded by Chatham, Durham, Franklin, Granville, Harnett, and
Johnston counties. The majority of Wake County falls within the Piedmont physiographic province (Figure
2.1); the project area is located in the Piedmont. The southeastern portion of the county lies on the Fall Line
separating the Piedmont from the Coastal Plain. Rolling hills dissected by intermittent and perennial streams
are the most frequent landforms within this transitional area. The average elevation of the county is 140.8
meters above mean sea level (amsl; Cawthorn 1970). Elevations in the project tract range from 91.5 to
106.7 meters amsl.

Drainages
The project area falls within the Neuse River watershed (Figure 2.2). The Neuse River flows from
the Falls Lake Reservoir through the Piedmont and Coastal Plain, emptying into Pamlico Sound. Numerous
small streams and creeks extend through Wake County. The southern and eastern portions of the project
tract front Crabtree Creek, a tributary of the Neuse River. Crabtree Creek begins in Cary and empties into
the Neuse River near Anderson Point Park in east Raleigh. The creek is known for frequent flooding due
to its often restricted floodplain, and development in Wake County has increased storm runoff resulting in
flooding.

Soils
There are five soil types present in the project tract (Table 2.1;Figure 2.3). Well -drained soils
account for 86.6 percent of the project tract with Nanford silt loam being the most prevalent soil type,
followed by Georgeville silt loam. Well -drained and moderately well drained soils on slopes less than 15
percent are generally considered to have high potential for the presence of archaeological remains.
Chewacla and Wehadkee soils are somewhat poorly drained and are present in 13.4 percent of the tract
(USDA 2020). This soil type, along with well -drained soils with greater than 15 percent slope, was viewed
as having low archaeological potential.

Climate
Like most of central North Carolina, the climate of Wake County is temperate, characterized by
relatively mild winters and warm summers. Average temperatures range from the upper 40s Fahrenheit (F)
in the winter to the mid-70s F in the summer.
Geology
The Piedmont was formed by volcanic activity and is composed of sedimentary, igneous, and
metamorphic rock irregularly distributed through the region (Ward 1983). The major geologic formation
within the project area is the Carolina Terrane. The Carolina Terrane is a 370-kilometer long band of
volcanic and metamorphic rock associated with oceanic volcanic islands dating to 540 to 630 million years
ago. Metamorphic rock within the project tract include Big Lake -Raven Rock schist, Sycamore Lake
greenstone, and Reedy Creek metagranodiorite (NCGS 1985; Figure 2.4). These materials have been mined
for agricultural and industrial purposes. Other metavolcanic materials, particularly rhyolite from the
Uwharrie Mountains region, have been used during prehistoric times for the production of stone tools.

Cultural Overview
The cultural history of North America can be divided into two general eras: Prehistoric and Historic.
The Prehistoric Era is extensive. It includes at least 12,000 years of Native American groups and cultures
present prior to the arrival of Europeans. The Historic Era, in comparison, is relatively brief. This era refers
to a time of exploration and initial European settlement on the continent through the colonization,
industrialization and emergence of the modern era. Fine-grained chronological and cultural subdivisions
are defined within these eras to permit discussions of particular events and the lifeways of North America's
prehistoric inhabitants. The following discussion summarizes the various periods of prehistoric and historic
occupation in the project vicinity.
Prehistoric Overview
Paleoindian Period (12,000 - 8,000 BC). The Paleoindian Period refers to the earliest human
occupations of the New World, the origins and age of which remain a subject of debate. The most accepted
theory dates the influx of migrant bands of hunter -gatherers to approximately 12,000 years ago. This time
period corresponds to the exposure of a land bridge connecting Siberia to the North American continent
during the last ice age (Driver 1998; Jackson et al. 1997). Research conducted over the past few decades
has begun to cast doubt on this theory.

In the past two decades, investigations at Paleoindian sites have produced radiocarbon dates
predating 12,000 years. The Monte Verde site in South America has been dated to 10,500 BC (Dillehay
1997; Meltzer et al. 1997). In North America, the Meadowcroft Rockshelter in Pennsylvania had deposits
dating to 9,500 BC. Current research conducted at the Topper Site indicates occupations dating between
15,000 and 19,000 (or more) years ago (Goodyear 2006). Two sites, 44SM37 and Cactus Hill, in Virginia
have yielded similar dates. One contentious point about these early sites is that the occupations predate
what has been recognized as the earliest New World culture, Clovis. Artifacts identified at pre -Clovis sites
include flake tools and blades, prismatic blades, bifaces, and lanceolate -like points (Adovasio et al. 1998;
Goodyear 2006; Johnson 1997; McAvoy and McAvoy 1997; McDonald 2000).
The major artifact marker for the Clovis period is the Clovis lanceolate -fluted point (Gardner 1974,
1989; Griffin 1967). First identified in New Mexico, Clovis fluted points have been recovered throughout
the United States. However, most of the identified Clovis points have been found in the eastern United
States (Ward and Davis 1999). Most Clovis points have been recovered from surface contexts, although
some sites (e.g., Cactus Hill and Topper sites) have contained well-defined subsurface Clovis contexts.
The identification of pre -Clovis sites, higher frequencies of Clovis points on the east coast of the
United States (the opposing side of the continent where the land bridge was exposed during the last
glaciation), and the lack of predecessors to the Clovis point type has led some researchers to hypothesize
other avenues of New World migration (see Bonnichsen et al. 2006). These alternative migration theories
contend that the influx of people to the Americas occurred prior to the ice -free corridor 12,000 years ago
and that multiple migration episodes took place. These theories include overland migrations similar to the
one presumed to have occurred over the Bering land bridge and water migrations over both the Atlantic
Ocean and the Pacific rim (see Stanford 2006). Coastal migration theories envision seafaring people using
boats to make the journey, evidence for which has not been identified (Adovasio and Page 2002).
In the southeastern United States, Clovis was followed by smaller fluted and nonfluted lanceolate
spear points, such as Dalton and Hardaway point types, that are characteristic of the later Paleoindian Period
(Goodyear 1982). The Hardaway point, first described by Coe (1964), is seen as a regional variant of Dalton
(Oliver 1985; Ward 1983).
Most Paleoindian materials occur as isolated surface finds in the eastern United States (Ward and
Davis 1999); this indicates that population density was extremely low during this period and that groups
were small and highly mobile (Meltzer 1988). It has been noted that group movements were probably well -
scheduled, and that some semblance of territories was maintained to ensure adequate arrangements for
procuring mates and maintaining population levels (Anderson and Hanson 1988).
O'Steen (1996) analyzed Paleoindian settlement patterns in the Oconee River valley in northeastern
Georgia and noted a pattern of decreasing mobility throughout the Paleoindian period. Sites of the earliest
portion of the period seem to be restricted to the floodplains, while later sites were distributed widely in the
uplands, showing an exploitation of a wider range of environmental resources. If this pattern holds true for
the Southeast in general, it may be a result of changing environments trending toward increased deciduous
forest and decreasing availability of Pleistocene megafauna and the consequent increased reliance on
smaller mammals for subsistence; population growth may have also been a factor.
Paleoindian tools have been found all across North Carolina. Nine Paleoindian points have been
documented from Wake County. Eight Clovis point or Clovis variants have been identified, as well as a
Redstone point (Daniel 2000).

Archaic Period (8000 - 1000 BC). The Archaic period has been the focus of considerable research
in the Southeast. Sites dating to this period are ubiquitous in the North Carolina Piedmont (Coe and
McCormick 1970). Two major areas of research have dominated: (1) the development of chronological
subdivisions for the period based on diagnostic artifacts, and (2) the understanding of settlement/subsistence
trends for successive cultures.
Coe's excavations at several sites in the North Carolina Piedmont established a chronological
sequence for the period based on diagnostic projectile points. The Archaic period has been divided into
three subperiods: Early (8000 - 6000 BC), Middle (6000 - 3500 BC), and Late (3500 - 1000 BC) (Coe
1964). Coe defined the Early Archaic subperiod based on the presence in site assemblages of Palmer and
Kirk Corner Notched projectile points. More recent studies have defined other Early Archaic corner notched
points, such as Taylor, Big Sandy, and Bolen types. Generally similar projectile points (e.g., LeCroy points),
but with commonly serrated edges and characteristic bifurcated bases, have also been identified as
representative of the Early Archaic subperiod (Broyles 1981; Chapman 1985). The Early Archaic points of
the North Carolina Piedmont are typically produced with metavolcanic material, although occasional chert,
quartz, or quartzite examples have been recovered.
Claggett et al. (1982) use a settlement/subsistence typology developed by Binford (1980), to
classify late Paleoindian and Early Archaic populations as "logistical." Logistical task groups, in this
definition, target a particular resource or set of subsistence or technological resources for collection and use
at a residential base camp. Their analysis identifies an increase in residential mobility beginning in the Early
Archaic and extending into the Middle Archaic (Claggett et al. 1982). Early Archaic peoples transitioned
from logistical orientation to foraging. Foraging refers to a generalized resource procurement strategy
enacted in closer proximity to a base camp. Subsistence remains recovered from Early Archaic sites in
southern Virginia include fish, turtle, turkey, small mammals, and deer, as well as a wide variety of nuts
(McAvoy and McAvoy 1997).
Sassaman (1983) hypothesizes that actual group residential mobility increased during the Middle
Archaic although it occurred within a more restricted range. Range restriction is generally a result of
increased population in the Southeast and crowding with group territories (Sassaman 1983); this increase
in population led to increasing social fluidity during the Middle Archaic and a lower need for scheduled
aggregation for mate exchange. In Sassaman's view, technology during the Middle Archaic is highly
expedient; this is reflected in an almost exclusive use of local resources, especially lithic material.
The appearance/introduction of Stanly points, a broad -bladed stemmed form defines the transition
to the Middle Archaic subperiod. These were followed by Morrow Mountain points, which are
characteristically manufactured from quartz, and have been recovered from numerous small sites
throughout Virginia, the Carolinas, and Georgia. Guilford points, also often made of quartz, follow Morrow
Mountain in the Middle Archaic sequence. Morrow Mountain and Guilford points were the most frequently
recovered projectile point types in the Jordan Lake survey area (Coe and McCormick1970). The latter were
typically found on low knolls or ridge toes overlooking perennial streams (Autry 1976).
The hallmark of the Late Archaic subperiod is the Savannah River Stemmed point (Coe 1964). This
large, broad -bladed and stemmed point type is found widely over the eastern United States and in nearly
every setting during the Jordan Lake survey (Autry 1976). It is associated with Late Archaic occupations
in the mountains and uplands as well as at coastal midden sites of the period. Also, the earliest ceramics
produced in North America are associated with the Late Archaic subperiod and date to around 2000 BC.
These ceramics are Stallings Island Fiber Tempered and are primarily a coastal phenomenon, stretching
from northern Florida to southern North Carolina.

Sites of the later phases of the Archaic are generally larger and more complex than earlier sites
(Caldwell 1952; Coe 1952; Griffin 1952; Lewis and Kneberg 1959). These sites are typically in riverine
settings within the Piedmont and are hypothesized to reflect greatly increased sedentism during the Late
Archaic, with a focus on fish, shellfish, and floodplain resources. Small Late Archaic sites in the uplands
of the Piedmont are interpreted as logistical collection and hunting camps (Anderson and Joseph 1988).
Abbott et al. (1986) have speculated that an increase in population during the Late Archaic led to a
restriction in resource ranges and an increase in trade networks.
Woodland Period (1000 BC -1450 AD). A transition between the preceramic Archaic cultures and
the Woodland cultures has been identified by Oliver (1985). Stemmed point types, like the Gypsy triangular
point, continue in the Early Woodland subperiod (1000 BC - 300 AD). Other cultural expressions of the
Early Woodland are the ceramics and projectile points of the Badin culture. These points are generally
crude triangulars while the ceramics are heavily tempered and undecorated. Unlike Oliver, Miller (1962)
noted little change in the cultural makeup of groups at the Archaic/Woodland transition other than the
addition of pottery. Coe (1964), although noting a stratigraphic break between Archaic and Woodland
occupations, also describes little technological or subsistence change other than ceramics.
Ceramic technology evolved from Badin styles into the Yadkin Phase wares during the Middle
Woodland subperiod (300 BC - 1000 AD). Yadkin ceramics have crushed quartz temper and are either cord
marked or fabric impressed. Occasionally, Yadkin ceramics contain grog (i.e., crushed fired clay) temper,
suggesting the influence of coastal populations who more commonly utilized grog temper in their ceramics
(Coe 1964). Yadkin phase projectile points differ from the Badin styles in that they reflect significantly
better workmanship (Coe 1964) and are more suited to the newly adopted bow and arrow technology. The
introduction of the bow and arrow necessitated significant changes in hunting strategies, allowing for more
independent procurement of animals rather than the group hunts generally associated with spear hunting.
Horticulture was still in its infancy during this period, so subsistence strategies remained focused on hunting
animals and gathering wild plants.
The Late Woodland subperiod (1000 — 1450 AD) in the study area is represented by the Uwharrie
Phase. The Uwharrie Phase projectile points have small triangular forms. Uwharrie ceramics are heavily
tempered with crushed quartz and are predominantly net impressed with scraped interiors (Eastman 1996).
Although they continued to hunt and gather wild plants, agriculture began to supplement, and later
dominate, Native American subsistence strategies. Corn, beans, squash, and fruit were cultivated with the
aid of stone hoes and wooden implements, and settlement patterns indicate conditions favorable to
agriculture were significant to decision -making (Hantman and Klein 1992; Ward 1983).
Historic Indian / Protohistoric Period
Spain initiated the exploration of the southeastern United States in the hopes of preserving their
claims to American lands west of the Treaty of Tordesillas line of demarcation. Hernando de Soto (1539-
1543) and Juan Pardo (1566-1568) led military expeditions into the western Piedmont and mountains of
North Carolina during the mid -sixteenth century (Hudson 1990, 1994). These parties visited Indian villages
near the present-day towns of Charlotte, Lincolnton, Hickory, and Maiden (Hargrove 1998). The Spanish
also built garrisons in the vicinity of Marion and Salisbury (Hargrove 1998). Recent work at the Berry site
in Burke County identified the remains of the Spanish garrison of Xualla (also called Joara) visited by de
Soto in the 1540s and Juan Pardo in the 1560s. Spanish presence in the Carolinas could not be sustained
despite their best attempts to establish a permanent presence with interior outposts and coastal settlements.
Mounting pressure from hostile Native Americans and English privateers also contributed to their
withdrawal to St. Augustine in 1587 (South 1980). Diseases introduced by these explorers wrought
Inc. Oddfellows Tract
Wake County, North Carolina
15
disastrous effects on contemporary Native American peoples. Populations collapsed and entire
communities disappeared (Fossett 1976).
Sir Walter Raleigh heavily promoted England's interest in the New World. In 1585 Raleigh used
his position in the court of Queen Elizabeth I to secure backing to outfit an English attempt at colonizing
the Atlantic coast (Powell 1989). Although this effort failed, Raleigh's single-minded ambition led to
establishment of a colony on the James River in 1607 (Noel Hume 1994).
The first years of settlement at Jamestown were hampered by disastrous mismanagement resulting
in starvation, loss of life, and hostilities with neighbouring Powhatan. In 1624 the Crown revoked the
Virginia Company's charter and established a royal government (Noel Hume 1994). Preoccupied with the
civil war between Royalist and Parliamentarian forces in the 1640s, these authorities showed little interest
in North Carolina until the 1650s. During this period traders, hunters, trappers, rogues, and tax evaders
began living in the area around the Albemarle Sound in northeastern North Carolina (Powell 1989). Even
then, North Carolina was becoming notorious as a refuge for the independent and self-reliant.
Historic Overview
Charles II was restored to the throne in 1660 and distributed rewards to loyal Royalist supporters
(Powell 1989). Seven supporters were awarded the charter to establish a proprietary colony south of
Virginia. The boundaries of this deed were set to include the Albemarle Sound settlement of Charles Town
south to the frontier of Spanish -held La Florida. Proprietors maintained control over a single Carolina until
1712, when the colonies were separated. After a popular South Carolina uprising in 1719, the proprietors
forfeited control of that colony to the Crown. That divestment forced the Proprietors' sale of their North
Carolina charter to King George II in 1729.
John Lederer, a German doctor, was the first recorded European explorer to visit the project area.
In 1669, Lederer was commissioned by the governor of Virginia to find a westward route to the Pacific
Ocean (Cumming 1958). Lederer traveled through Virginia south to present day Camden, South Carolina.
During this trip, he visited with several Native American tribes, including the Catawba and Waxhaw. The
Catawba Indians are historically linked to the Catawba River Valley in North and South Carolina. Inspired
by Lederer, John Lawson traveled from Charleston, South Carolina through the North Carolina Piedmont
to Pamlico Sound. Lawson's 1700-1701 excursion followed a well -established Native American trading
path that passed near present day Charlotte, Concord, and Salisbury (Lawson 1967). Lawson's journey took
him through Esaw, Sugaree, Catawba, and Waxhaw territory, four tribes who would soon come into close
contact with European colonists.
The principle economic focus of the Carolinas during the early colonial era was the Indian trade.
This trade revolved around the exchange of European manufactured goods and alcohol for skins and
captives. It drew Native American groups into an Atlantic economy and had the added effect of increasing
intertribal hostilities. Itinerant traders based in Charleston (South Carolina), and Virginia vied for clients
among the North Carolina Piedmont settlements.
Severe fighting between North Carolinian settlers and Tuscarora Indians broke out in 1711 after
the death of the colony's Surveyor General (John Lawson) at the hands of the Tuscarora (Powell 1989).
The war ended in 1712, leaving the Carolina colonies in dire financial straits. These conditions persisted
until the Lords Proprietors were forced to sell their holdings in the Carolinas to the Crown in 1729 (Powell
1989).
As the number of settlers began to multiply in the Northeast, many began to look to the wilderness
of the South and the West to build new lives. German and Scotch -Irish settlers first walked the Indian
Inc. Oddfellows Tract
Wake County, North Carolina
16
footpaths connecting present-day Pennsylvania and Georgia (Rouse 2001). In 1744, a series of treaties
allowed the colonies to formally take over the trail, then known as the Warrior Path, from the Five Nations
of the Iroquois (NCOAH 2O04; Rouse 2001). Dubbed the Great Wagon Road settlers from northern
colonies used the route to populate the farmlands and new towns of the Carolinas and Georgia well into the
1800's.
Few settlers resided in the central Piedmont prior to 1748. In just a few years, this population
dramatically increased and in 1752 it was determined that a new county government was needed. Land
grants were issued to new settlers arriving via the Great Wagon Road. Predominantly Scots -Irish and
German, these settlers established farms along the major streams and engaged in cultivation of staples and
cash crops. For most of the eighteenth century, land grants and farm sizes were modest. The first English
and Scotch -Irish settlers in Wake County received land grants ranging from 100 to 640 acres (40.5-259 ha;
Murray 1983). Land holdings were typically small yeoman farmsteads interspersed with a few large
plantations (Powell 1989). By mid-century, farmsteads, grist mills, churches, court houses, and taverns
dotted the landscape. Joel Lane, a well-known and politically active plantation owner, operated a tavern in
what was then western Johnston County. Lane's tavern would become the site of Wake County's first
courthouse (Murray 1983).
Wake County was formed in 1771 from portions of Cumberland, Johnston, and Orange counties.
It was named for Margaret Wake, the wife of William Tryon who was the Royal Governor ofNorth Carolina
at the time. This same period was the height of the Regulator Movement, a period of antagonism between
the affluent settled east and the frontier west. North Carolina's citizens were unable to have their grievances
effectively addressed by a centralized government dominated by wealthy merchants and plantation
aristocrats. By 1768, much of the back country was in open revolt against increased taxes and oppressive
local officials. The creation of Wake County was one of the reforms carried out by Governor Tryon in the
wake of the rebellion (Murray 1983).
At the beginning of the Revolutionary War, a local Committee of Safety was raised from the
citizens of Wake County. The Committee of Safety was supported by the Wake militia which maintained
a muster ground near Woodward's Mill on Middle Creek (Murray 1983). An army camp operated at Wake
Courthouse throughout the war. The recruitment and training of soldiers, provisioning the army, and raids
against local Tory enclaves were the focus of the county's war effort. Tory troops led by Colonel David
Fanning continued small scale military operations in the Cumberland -Orange -Wake County area until the
surrender of the British Army at Yorktown in 1781 (Fanning 1861; Rankin 1959).
New Bern continued to be the capital of the state for several years after the British defeat. As early
as 1779, Wake County was being considered as a potential site for a new state capital. In 1792, after several
years of political wrangling, the General Assembly ratified its decision to locate the state capital in Wake
County (Murray 1983). The city was named Raleigh after Sir Walter Raleigh, the colony's sixteenth century
benefactor. Soon after, it was decided that the plantation of Joel Lane would make a suitable site for the
new capital. The first town lots were sold in June of 1792. Revenues from the real estate sale were used to
construct the first statehouse, which opened on December 30, 1794 (Murray 1983).
The formation of the capital city did little to alter the rural character of Wake County. The slow
pace of urban development in the county is reflected in the fact that the next town did not incorporate until
1837 (Murray 1983). Local commerce was dominated by the exchange of farm produce for manufactured
goods. Important food and cash crops during this period included corn, sweet potatoes, wheat, peas, beans,
cotton, and tobacco. Subsistence farming dominated the economic landscape (Lally 1994). This
arrangement ensured a steady flow of country people into Raleigh for both business and pleasure. A county
Inc. Oddfellows Tract
Wake County, North Carolina
17
market house was constructed in Raleigh before the end of the century to facilitate trade between city
dwellers and the rural community (Murray 1983).
The first three decades of the nineteenth century saw a concerted effort to develop the county's
infrastructure. However, poor maintenance of existing roads was a problem well into the twentieth century
and was made worse by the frequent flooding of Crabtree and Walnut creeks. Road improvement projects
were limited to the significant highways which carried mail service and passenger stages (Murray 1983).
Dependable access to regional markets was not achieved until the coming of the railroads during
the middle 1800s. The 86-mile long Raleigh and Gaston Railroad was completed in 1840. This line, together
with the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad, opened up northern markets to planters and commercial
farmers. Access to the Petersburg market encouraged the expansion of cotton and tobacco production by
slave holders, who attained a measure of prosperity during this period. Nevertheless, most of the county's
farm families continued the subsistence farming traditions of their pioneer ancestors (Lally 1994).
The poor quality of the transportation system in the Wake County area resulted in the sporadic
development of the area's industrial potential prior to 1850. Throughout much of antebellum period
manufacturing was limited to "looms, leather, and liquor" (Murray 1983:136). Grist mills and cotton gins
were common. These small-scale commercial enterprises produced commodities for local consumption.
Limited iron manufacturing and a few paper mills were operating in the county by the end of the 1850s.
On the eve of the Civil War, the county's population of 20,370 people resided in Raleigh, on 1,410
farms in the surrounding countryside, and in the developing communities of Wake Forest, Rolesville,
Wakefield, Eagle Rock, Holly Springs, Cary, and Morrisville (Murray 1983).
North Carolina separated from the Union in May 1861 and ratified the constitution of the
Confederate States of America. Camps, hospitals, and supply depots were soon in operation at several
locations in Wake County. By the end of 1861, Wake County had the facilities to manufacture bayonets,
uniforms, and ammunition. The capital city of Raleigh was fully enclosed by light earthworks with cannon
emplacements by 1863. Military operations by the residents of Wake County were largely confined to guard
duty and occasional forays into the countryside to round up deserters. This changed in April 1865, when
General William T. Sherman's Union forces advanced on the county, meeting Confederate troops under
the command of General Joseph Johnston. The city of Raleigh was evacuated, and skirmishing continued
along roads and railroad lines west of Raleigh for several weeks. It is estimated that more than 100,000
Union troops camped in and around Raleigh during that period. On April 29, 1865, several corps of
Sherman's army departed Raleigh for Virginia, bringing a close to the military operations in Wake County
(Murray 1983).
The post -Civil War period was a time of distress for many of the farmers in rural Wake County.
The end of slavery resulted in the collapse of the plantation economic system. It was replaced by a new
labor system based on share cropping and cash rents (Powell 1989). Under the sharecropping system, the
landowner retained ownership of the crop while the sharecropper provided the labor to work the land. The
tools, seeds, housing, fuel, draft animals, and other essentials were supplied by the landowner. Typically,
the crop was split between both parties, although most small farmers preferred the rent system as it allowed
them to retain control of the crop.
This new agricultural system resulted in the intensification of cash cropping (Powell 1989). The
tenant was encouraged to squeeze production out of marginal lands leading to erosion and soil depletion
across the state. The act of "settling up" at the end of the harvest season often left the tenant cash poor
Inc. Oddfellows Tract
Wake County, North Carolina
18
leading to a cycle of debt peonage, which was difficult to escape. During the postwar decades, farms became
smaller and more dispersed (Murray 1983; Powell 1989).
Figure 2.5 shows the project vicinity in 1871. Significant advances in the development of North
Carolina's industrial base occurred after 1870. For example, by 1880 49 textile mills were operating in the
state (Powell 1989). This represents a substantial increase in industrial capacity over that which existed in
1860. By the 1890s, furniture and tobacco factories dotted the Piedmont landscape. In Wake County, the
Falls of the Neuse Manufacturing Company continued to produce paper until near the end of the century,
when it was converted to textile production (Lally 1994). Although small scale manufacturing entities, such
as sawmills, grist mills, and distilleries, flourished, Wake County remained largely rural well into the
twentieth century.

The collapse of the cotton market in the 1920s and the Depression of the 1930s resulted in rapid
pre -World War II urbanization (Murray 1983). The economic importance of the county has grown since
the middle twentieth century. Much of this growth has occurred in the public sector, which provides
statewide government services, and as a result of the success of the Research Triangle Park, a regionally
important center for technology -based industries (Powell 1989).

By the late 1800s, poor farming practices in the North Carolina Piedmont had impacted many area,
depleting soils of nutrients and creating serious erosion. During the years of the Great Depression, farmers
along Crabtree Creek made the situation worse by attempting to grow cotton on already worn out land. In
1934, approximately 5,000 acres of submarginal land was bought by federal and state agencies to develop
a recreation area. The Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the Works Progress Administration helped
construct four camps with day use and picnic facilities. The park, known as the Crabtree Creek Recreation
Area, was opened to the public in 1937. The state purchased the park and built more facilities in the 1940s.
In 1950, more than 1,000 acres of the park were set aside to establish Reedy Creek State Park, a separate
park for African Americans. Within a few years, Crabtree Creek Recreation Area was renamed Umstead
State Park, in honor of the conservation efforts of former Governor William Bradley Umstead. In 1966, the
two parks were merged to form William B. Umstead State Park (Moss 1995; N.C. Parks n.d.).
In 1995, William B. Umstead State Park was listed on the National Register of Historic Places as
the Crabtree Creek Recreational Demonstration Area (Moss 1995). This resource was determined to have
areas of significance for the period between 1933 and 1943 related to: Architecture; Landscape
Architecture; Entertainment/Recreation; Political/Government; and Conservation. Moss (1995; Section 8
Page 11) notes:
The William B. Umstead State Park Historic District has local significance as a recreational
demonstration area established by the federal government to reclaim depleted natural resources and
provide public recreation facilities. The planned and reclaimed landscape, is the result of one of
President Franklin D. Roosevelt's most successful human conservation efforts, while the rustic
architecture the men of the CCC and the WPA constructed is representative of the rising popularity
of parks, organized camping, and motoring to and from natural settings that was facilitated by
automobiles and the boom in park and parkway construction.
Another important development in the project vicinity is the Raleigh -Durham International Airport
(RDU). The Raleigh -Durham Aeronautical Authority was first chartered in 1939, and its name was changed
to the Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority (RDUAA) in 1945. During World War 11, in 1942, the airport
was taken over by the U. S. government, and the Raleigh -Durham Army Airfield was established in 1943.
By 1946 1,223 acres had been acquired by RDUAA (No Author 2020a), and it has been, and continues to
be, an important factor in the growth of the Research Triangle region.

(Hall and Littleton 1978). Little data is provided on the site in the report aside from noting the collection of
one bottle fragment and one miscellaneous concretion. The site map provided on the site form indicates the
presence of pits at the site, but no description of the size or function of the pits is provided. No further work
was recommended for this site; however, its NRHP eligibility remains unassessed.
Site 31WA156 was recorded in 2003 based on a private artifact collection. This prehistoric site
yielded unifacial tools, but no specific details regarding the number or tool types is provided on the site
form. This site has not been evaluated for NRHP eligibility.
Site 31WA1459 was recorded by students from Western Carolina University in 1975. This site is
the remnants of a mill consisting of a breeched stone dam and mill stones. These remains are associated
with the Company Mill Dam in Umstead State Park. The mill stones have been mounted for a public
interpretation display. The site was not assessed for NRHP eligibility, and evaluation of the site and archival
research were advocated.
There are 16 previously recorded historic resources within a 1.6-kilometer radius of the project
tract (Figure 3.2; Table 3.2). Eleven of these resources are located within William B. Umstead State Park.
The park itself is a NRHP Listed Historic District recorded as Crabtree Creek Recreational Demonstration
Area. Recorded as Resource WA0721, the district includes CCC buildings, administrative and recreational
buildings, a cemetery, mill remains, and the park entrance from Interstate 40. The NRHP eligibility status
of the different elements of the district is noted as Survey Only (SO) on HPOWEB, indicating they are not
eligible for the NRHP. However, some of these resources may be contributing elements to the significance
of Umstead Park as a historic district.
Resource 0733, a circa 1900 house, and Resource WA2255, the Williams House, have both been
destroyed. Likewise, Bridge No. 322 (Resource WA5068), located along Old Reedy Creek Road and
crossing Crabtree Creek, was destroyed after the road was slightly rerouted and a new bridge constructed.
Resource WA7189, the Floyd Sorrell House, is a 1910 side gable traditional/vernacular house. Resource
WA7190 is a circa 1970 side gable Colonial Revival house. These houses are not eligible for the NRHP
and listed as Survey Only.

Prior to the present ownership of the project tract by the County of Wake, County of Durham, City
of Durham, and City of Raleigh, under the management of Raleigh -Durham Airport Authority, it was
comprised of four separate parcels owned by Blanchard, Barnes, Collins, and the Sir Walter Lodge No. 411
Independent Order of Odd Fellows (Figure 3.3). The Blanchard, Barnes, and Collins tracts were once part
of the C.L. Duke farm (Figure 3.4).
Blanchard Parcel
The Blanchard Parcel was originally about 50 acres with a portion of overlapping with the now I-
40 and running southwest across it. The small portion a part of the project tract, 0.0146 acres, was deeded
to the counties and cities in 1972.

Max Collins, Sr. was a barber in Maysville, North Carolina through 1935, moving to Cary by 1940
according to census data. Census records list Kate J. Rogers as a dressmaker through 1940. Her husband,
Walter, was the manager of a tobacco warehouse in Fuquay Varina prior to his death in 1957.
Barnes Parcel
Similar to the Blanchard Parcel, the Barnes Parcel was originally 15 acres from the Collins in 1952

Florence Perkins Tucker (1838-1909) was the widow of Major Rufus Sylvester Tucker who died
in 1894. Rufus Sylvester Tucker was the son of Ruffin and Lucinda Tucker. Ruffin was a prominent
merchant in Wake County during the early nineteenth century. Rufus, along with his two brothers, inherited
his father's business upon his death in 1851 and continued their father's success. Rufus entered the
Confederate army in April 1861 as a captain. He was appointed by then Governor John Ellis to be
quartermaster and commissary for the Raleigh post. Rufus mustered into the Wake Rangers, Company I,
41st Regiment in February 1862. He received a mention for distinguished gallantry in the Battle of
Washington in September 1862 and was subsequently promoted to major. In 1863, he was appointed
assistant adjutant general, serving General Daniel G. Fowle and Brigadier General R.C. Gatlin until he left
the military in 1863. In 1864, he was elected principal clerk in the House of Commons and was considered
as a gubernatorial possibility in 1888, although he never ran. After the war he devoted himself to his
mercantile business, expanding its operations until it became the leading dry goods house in the state. He
Inc. Oddfellows Tract
Wake County, North Carolina
26
turned his business over to his son-in-law, James Boylan, in 1883 and turned to agriculture operating a
valuable plantation in Pitt County and developing 540 acres in northwest Raleigh, known as Camp
Mangum, into one of the finest farms in the state. Camp Mangum had previously been a Confederate
training ground and is today the campus of Meredith College. He gifted Tucker Hall, Raleigh's first public
amusement building, to the city in 1867. The building was dedicated by former Governor David L. Swain.
Rufus Tucker was active in forming the Raleigh Chamber of Commerce and was chosen its first
president in 1887. He served as director and president of the Institution for the Deaf, Dumb and Blind at
Raleigh, and was a director of the North Carolina, Raleigh and Gaston, Raleigh and Augusta, and Carolina
Central Railroads, in addition to being the largest private stockholder in the Atlantic and North Carolina
Railroad. With his very considerable agricultural and real estate holdings, Tucker was reputed to be
Raleigh's wealthiest citizen at the time of his death in 1894 (Hatcher 1996). Both he and Florence are buried
in Oakwood Cemetery in Raleigh.
Sir Walter Lodge No. 411 Independent Order of Odd Fellows Parcel
The Odd Fellows parcels, containing 83.79242 acres, was combined from 68 acres from the Capital
Development Company and the remainder, 15 acres, from Max Collins. No information could be found
on Lusetto Blake or J.P.H. Adams. Paschal B. Price was a cooper by trade in 1880 but is listed as a carpenter
on census records for 1900, shortly before he sold the property. Deeds for property transfers of this parcel
occurring in 1949, 1955, and 1958 refer to the property as formerly part of the C.L. Duke farm. Rufus and
Florence Tucker acquired their property, the Collins parcel, from C.L. and J.A. Duke, who acquired it from
Asa Blake, presumably through a colonial land grant.

The Independent Order of Odd Fellows (IOOF) is a charitable organization whose goals are to
"visit the sick, relieve the distressed, bury the dead, educate the orphans, and protect the widows" (Powell
2006). Although beginning in Europe in the seventeenth century, it was organized in the United Sates in
1805. Over the years, the Sir Walter Raleigh Lodge has acquired large tracts of land and a number of
buildings in Raleigh. These include the Odd Fellows building (Commerce Building) which was built as the
Grand Lodge of the IOOF in 1923 and designed by Atlanta architect G. Lloyd Preacher. It was Raleigh's
first tall office building. Office space in the skyscraper was also rented out with the proceeds supporting
the IOOF orphanages (RHDC 2020). The building was sold in 2004. Their landholdings, such as the parcel
within the project tract, were often used for recreational activities.

The Raleigh Durham International Airport is governed by the Raleigh Durham Airport Authority
which was established in 1939. An eight -member board manages the airport's day-to-day operations. Two
board members are each appointed by Wake County, the city of Raleigh, Durham County, and the city of
Durham. The number of passengers served has increased 55 percent since 2011. To address this growth,
the airport plans to invest over 2 billion dollars in the next 10 years on facility expansion (No Author
2020b).
Historic Map Review
A review of historic maps was conducted to see if any structures or houses were present in the
project tract. The earliest indication of any houses or structures in the project tract is from 1911 when the
property was part of the C. L. Duke Farm. A structure is shown on the property plat (see Figure 3.4) in the
approximate location of archaeological site 31WA2327 (discussed below). This structure can also be seen
on the 1914 soil survey map of Wake County (Figure 3.5).

The 1938 Wake County highway map shows the project tract in relation to the recently established
Crabtree Creek Recreation Area. Several structures appear to be within or in the vicinity of the tract, but
the map scale limits the reliability of precisely plotting them. A 1938 aerial photograph of the tract shows
a single structure in the tract, the same one shown on the 1911 plat and 1914 soil survey map (Figure 3.6).
An aerial photograph from 1959 shows the same structure present, and it appears that the tract was
recently logged. A clearing shown on this aerial is in the location of archaeological site 31 WA2329
(discussed below) and is the location of a small logging sawmill. Another aerial photograph from 1971
shows that an additional structure has been added next to the original structure dating back to the 1911 plat,
as well as several small outbuildings. However, on the east side of the tract, a pond and dam have been
constructed, and a structure is shown just west of the pond. Figure 3.7 presents these aerial views. A 1964
topographic map of the project area does not show the pond and structure, indicating they were constructed
between 1964 and 1971. Figure 3.8 shows details of the tract on USGS topographic maps from 1943 and
1971.

Chapter 4. Field Survey Results
This archaeological survey resulted in the comprehensive examination of the 105-acre (42.5-ha)
Oddfellows tract. Survey coverage is shown in Figure 4.1. The survey methods consisted of excavating
shovel tests at 30-meter intervals along parallel transects spaced 30 meters apart in areas deemed to have
high archaeological potential. Low potential areas were surveyed through pedestrian walkover.

Five archaeological sites, 31 WA2327 through 31 WA2331, were identified during this survey
(Figure 4.2; Table 4.1). These sites include one prehistoric site, two historic sites, and two sites with both
prehistoric and historic components. Prehistoric remains date to unknown periods, and historic components
date between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Due to the severe disturbance to these sites, they are
not likely to contribute significantly to our understanding of the prehistory and history of the region. They
are all recommended not eligible for the NRHP. The sites are described individually below.

Component: 201 Century Landform: Ridge Top
NRHP Recommendation: Not Eligible Soil Type: Georgeville silt loam and Herndon silt loam
Site 31 WA2327 is a historic house complex located in the western edge of the project tract, fronting
Old Reedy Creek Road. The site is situated on a ridge top that slopes southeast towards Crabtree Creek.
The vegetation of the site area consists of mixed hardwoods and pine woods but cedar, black walnut, and
beech trees were noted in the site vicinity. Understory vegetation consisted of moderate weed and briar
undergrowth. Surface visibility was generally poor except along a bike trail bisecting the site. However,
with minimal clearing, structural features were readily identifiable.
A structure is shown in this location as early as 1911 when the property was part of the C.L. Duke
Farm (see Figure 3.4). This structure is also shown on the 1914 Wake County soil map (see Figure 3.5). A
review of USGS topographic maps and aerial photographs shows that a second structure and several
outbuildings were added sometimes between 1964 and 1971. We found foundation elements of the older
structure, referred to as Building 1 in this discussion. The later structure is our Building 2. A small
agricultural plot is shown surrounding these structures in the 1938, 1959, and 1971 aerial photographs
(Figure 4.3).
A total of 48 shovel tests were excavated at 15-meter intervals at this site. The site boundary,
measuring 120 by 60 meters were established from two positive shovel tests and the remains of four
buildings and general surface debris (Figure 4.4). A typical soil profile is shown in Figure 4.5. This profile
consisted of a topsoil zone (0-10 centimeters below surface [cmbs]) of dark brown (10YR3/2) silt loam.
Beneath this, at a depth of 10-20 curbs, was reddish yellow (7.5YR6/6) loamy clay overlying red
(2.5YR4/8) clay subsoil. All artifacts were found in the topsoil zone.
Although foundation remains of multiple structures were found, artifacts were only found in two
shovel tests and a single surface find in a bike path. The two positive shovel tests are both in the vicinity of
Building 1. Twenty-nine artifacts and .9 grams of charcoal was collected during field investigations (Table
4.2). The artifact assemblage includes ceramics (n=3), glass (n=14), metal (n=7), asbestos siding (n=1),
terra cotta drainage pipe (n=2), and plastic (n=2) fragments. Some of these artifact types have a long span
of manufacture, possibly extending back into the nineteenth century. In addition, both machine cut and wire
nails were collected from the site, indicators of nineteenth and twentieth century activities, respectively.
Building 1 is the remains of a dwelling measuring 40 by 35 feet overall. This is the original structure
at 31 WA2327 shown on the 1911 plat and the 1914 soil survey map. Figure 4.6 through Figure 4.9 show
details of Building 1. The original mass of the dwelling, measuring 35 by 15 feet, is outlined by brick piers
and a one stretcher wide continuously running foundation between the piers. The remains also include a set
of concrete stairs. The additional extends southeast from the original mass running the full width extending
25 feet. The addition is also set the same foundation. Within the interior of the dwelling is a brick scatter,
and a concrete and brick scatter, probably the remains of a chimney.
Building 2 is the remains of a building measuring 30 by 20 feet. It is defined by concrete block
footers at the corners with a continuous concrete partition block foundation running between the footers.
Building 3 is the remains of an outbuilding measuring 12 by 10 feet. It is defined by a continuous concrete
block foundation. Two concrete blocks extending outward 8 feet away are likely footers to a shed overhang.
Building 4 is the remains of an outbuilding, likely a shed, measuring 15 by 10 feet. It is a plywood shed set
on concrete block footers.

In summary, 31 WA2327 appears to have been first occupied during the early twentieth or possibly
the late nineteenth century. Maps and aerial photographs reveal a single house surrounded by a small
field/pasture was here until at least 1964. However, by 1971 a second house and several outbuildings are
present. Structural remnants of four structures were identified during field investigations, including the
foundation of the original house (Building 1), as well as three of the later structures. Artifacts were found
in proximity to the original structure, but surprisingly, none were found in proximity to the more recent
structures. Based on the results of our field investigations, it is not likely that 31WA2327 can contribute
new or significant information about twentieth century occupations in the tract beyond the survey level of
evaluation and the site is recommended not eligible for the NRHP.

Site 31 WA2389 is a historic site located in the eastern part of the survey tract. This site is associated
with middle twentieth century recreational activities. The site includes three main loci: a pond and dam, a
shelter and grill area, and a picnic table and fire pit.
A review of twentieth century aerial photographs shows this setting as woodlands in 1938 and was
logged in 1958 or 1959. However, by 1964 a pond and structure are shown on the USGS topographic map
and are clearly visible on a 1971 aerial photograph (Figure 4.10). This recreation area was constructed
during the period of ownership of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Attempts were made to contact
representatives of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows to see if they had records of past ownership and
land use. Mr. Vincent Doria was contacted. He is the current Treasurer and former State Grand Master for
the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. Mr. Vincent was aware that the Independent Order of Odd Fellows
once owned the property. He said that they were heavily involved with Scout groups back then and had
granted permission for camping and jamboree activities. He said that until about 2007 there was a close
connection between the Independent Order of Odd Fellows and Scouting groups. He was unsure exactly
when the pond and recreation area were constructed, but our background research indicates the pond and
recreation area was built during their ownership of the property. Mr. Doria said he was not aware of any
other Odd Fellows functions or activities associated with the property.
Overall dimensions for 31WA2327 are approximately 180 by 200 meters (Figure 4.11). The pond
encompasses approximately 1.5 acres. There is a shelf/ledge bordering the pond allowing for easy access
for fishing and swimming. The dam is at the southern end of the pond, about 100 meters upslope from
Crabtree Creek. Figure 4.12 and Figure 4.13 show views of the pond.
The remains of the structure consist of a rectangular asphalted area measuring 20 by 40 feet (Figure
4.14). Three poles associated with the shelter are still standing. Just to the west of the asphalt pad are two
metal grills (Figure 4.15). These are made from tire rims and mounted on a segment of angle iron.
Approximately 150 feet west is a wood picnic table and a stone ring fire pit (Figure 4.16). Additional
scattered stone ring fire pits are scattered in the project area, but when metal detected only modern glass
and aluminum items were found.
Limited metal detecting was conducted in this area. Aluminum container debris was common, but
wire nails were also identified. A single shovel test was excavated in the site vicinity, revealing an eroded
soil profile, consisting of a thin layer of humus overlaying red (2.5YR4/8) clay (Figure 4.17).

Site 31 WA2328 is the remains of a recreational area created when the property was owned by the
Independent Oder of Odd Fellows. The site is a simple recreational facility with a shelter, pond, and a
primitive camping area. The site was created sometime after 1964, thus it barely has the 50-year age
requiring evaluation. The area was used by Scouting groups for camping and jamboree activities and is an
example of one of the many ways the Independent Order of Odd Fellows provided for the community.
However, there are no significant events or unique characteristics linked to the site. For this reason,
31 WA2328 is recommended not eligible for the NRHP and no additional evaluation is recommended.
Site 31WA2329
Site Type: Historic Logging operation UTM Coord 17N (NAD83): 3968811 N 701216 E
Component: Middle 201 Century Landform: Side slope
NRHP Recommendation: Not Eligible Soil Type: Nanford silt loam
Site 31 WA2329 is a historic site associated with middle twentieth century logging operations at the
Odd Fellows tract. The site is located in the central part of the tract, on the side slope. A review of historic
aerial photographs shows that this area was woodlands in 1938, some areas appearing as remnant fields or
pasture. The 1959 aerial photograph shows the area as recently logged, with a dendritic pattern of logging
trails visible. At the location of 31 WA2329 is an obvious clearing, but no details are discernable.
Archaeological evidence of sawmill activities was identified at this location.
This property was owned by the Independent Order of Odd Fellows between 1958 and anl976.
Prior to the sale of the land to the Odd Fellows the timber rights were specifically sold to Babcock Lumber
Company (7/31/1985, DB1329:P620). The 1959 aerial photograph shows the area has been logged and
location of 31 WA2329 appears as a bare clearing, surrounded by logging trails and logged woodlands
(Figure 4.18). However, no sheds or structures are visible in the photograph.
There are two loci at the site (Figure 4.19 and Figure 4.20). Locus 1 is a large rectangular pit
surrounded by an earthen berm. Locus 2 is about 50 feet to the south of Locus 1. Locus 2 is the location of
a smaller rectangular pit. Artifact scatters are associated with both loci. The overall site dimensions are
approximately 50 meters northwest -southeast by 40 meters northeast -southwest (Figure 4.21).
Locus 1 is a pit feature surrounded by an earthen berm (Figure 4.22). The feature measures about
45 feet north -south by 20 feet east -west. From the top of the berm to the base of the pit is about 5 feet. The
interior of the Locus 1 pit, the berm, and surrounding areas were metal detected. While metal detecting,
several surface finds were noted, including a distinctive Pepsi Cola bottle from circa 1951-1957, a glass
bottle, a glass jar fragment, and two metal can fragments. Seventeen metal detection hits were collected
from Locus 1, representing about 50 percent of the hits detected at the site. Table 4.3 summarizes artifacts
collected from Locus 1. The most common items are wire nails (n=8), can fragments (n=2), and unidentified
iron fragments. Also collected were an iron bolt, a cotter pin, a saw tooth, a piece of wire, and a spoon
fragment. Figure 4.23 shows glass containers and metal cans not collected.
The pit feature at Locus 2 is smaller than at Locus 1, measuring approximately 3 by 1 meter in area
and about 50 centimeters deep (see Figure 4.22). However, a similar number of artifacts were found by
metal detection here as at Locus 1. Table 4.4 summarizes the artifacts from Locus 2. Most of the items are
wire nails (n=7) and can fragments (n=6). Additional items include a small hoe, two chain links, an
unidentified copper alloy item, and an unidentified iron item. One of the chain links is of particular interest.
It is rectangular in shape and is common at portable sawmills and logging operations. This is part of a drag
chain used to clear the sawdust away from the machinery.

It was determined that metal detection instead of shovel tests would be used to recover artifacts
from 31 WK2329. Metal detection was conducted in the immediate vicinity of the two loci, and within a
10-meter surrounding area. However, two shovel tests were excavated at 31 WA2329 to examine the soil
profile (Figure 4.24 and Figure 4.25. Neither shovel test yielded artifacts. A shovel test excavated at the
bottom of the Locus 1 pit revealed a soil profile consisting of an upper zone of reddish yellow (10YR6/8)
silt loam. This zone is likely associated with erosional deposition after the site was abandoned. Beneath this
was an approximately 10 centimeters thick layer of strong brown (7.5YR5/6) silt loam. At the base of this
zone was a dark organic band, possibly the remains of decayed wood. Below this was undisturbed yellowish
red (5YR5/6) saprolitic silt loam. A shovel test excavated upslope from the Locus 1 pit showed a shallow
(0-10 cmbs) upper soil zone consisting of brown (10YR5/3) silt loam overlaying yellowish red (5YR5/8)
clay.
Site 31 WK2329 is the remains of a middle twentieth century portable sawmill. The area was
probably logged by the Babcock Lumber Company in 1958. However, the features and artifacts found at
the site suggest some limited sawmill activity. The artifacts collected from the site indicate a structure or
structures was once present covering the two loci, probably simple pole sheds. An open shed -like structure
would have been sufficient to protect the logging/sawmill machinery. Artifacts confirming that sawmill
operations occurred include a rectangular sawdust drag chain link and a saw tooth cover.
Logging and lumber practices offered one way that money could be made from the submarginal
land in the project vicinity. Partially intact pit features and representative artifacts were found during the
archaeological survey, but it is unlikely that this site can contribute new and significant information beyond
the survey level of evaluation. For this reason, 31 WA2329 is recommended not eligible for the NRHP and
no further evaluation is warranted.

Component: Unknown Prehistoric Scatter Landform: Floodplain
NRHP Recommendation: Not Eligible Soil Type: Chewacla and Wehadkee soils
Site 31WA2330 is an unknown prehistoric lithic scatter located in the southeastern corner of the
project tract. The site is located in a floodplain setting bordering Crabtree Creek (Figure 4.26 and Figure
4.27). The site is situated on a small sandy levee, with Crabtree to the south and a narrow back -swamp at
the base of the deep slope to the north. The vegetation in the site area consisted of mixed hardwoods and
pine with light understory vegetation. The site was first identified when several quartz flakes were found
on the ground surface in a bike trail that passes through the site.
A total of seven shovel tests were excavated at 15-meter intervals at 31 WA2330. The site boundary,
measuring approximately 15 meters in diameter, was defined by a light scatter of quartz artifacts. The soils
at 31WA2330 consisted of a topsoil zone (0-20 cmbs) of brown (7.5YR4/3) sandy loam. Beneath this, to a
depth of 55 centimeters was reddish yellow (7.5YR6/8) loamy sand. The deepest soil zone (55-75 cm+ was
strong brown (7.5YR5/8) sandy clay. The soil profile is shown in Figure 4.28.

midden contexts is considered low, and no evidence of preserved organic remains (bone and charcoal) was
found. For these reasons we feel that 31 WA2330 is not likely to yield new or significant information beyond
the survey level of evaluation about prehistoric settlement in the North Carolina Piedmont and the site is
recommended not eligible for the NRHP.
Site 31WA2331
Site Type: Lithic Scatter UTM Coord 17N (NAD83): 3968526 N 700709 E
Component: Unknown Prehistoric Scatter Landform: Floodplain
NRHP Recommendation: Not Eligible Soil Type: Nanford silt loam
Site 31WA233lis a prehistoric lithic scatter located in the center -western portion of the project
tract. The site is situated on a ridge top and extends southeast down a ridge toe and onto the floodplain of
Crabtree Creek (Figure 4.29). The vegetation in the site area consisted of mixed hardwoods and pine with
light understory vegetation. A bike trail passes through the site; along the trail surface visibility is very good
(75-100%).
A total of 57 shovel tests were excavated at 15-meter intervals at the site. The site boundary,
measuring approximately 150 meters northwest -southeast by 40 meters northeast -southwest, was defined
by one shovel test and three surface collection points (Figure 4.30). Soil stratigraphy consisted of 10 to 15
centimeters of brown (1OYR 5/3) silt loam overlying yellowish red (5YR 5/7) silty clay (Figure 4.31). The
soil had quartz rocks common, and an exposure of quartz bedrock was present on the southeastern part of
the site. However, it did not look as if the quartz exposure had been used by prehistoric inhabitants due to
the fractured nature of the material.

A total of 26 lithic artifacts were collected from 31 WK2331 (Table 4.5). Only one of these, a quartz
core, was from a subsurface context and the rest were surface finds from along the bike trails that cross the
site. The only non -quartz artifact was a projectile point blade fragment of a good quality metavolcanic

rhyolite. The flaking pattern indicates the tool was made by a skilled flintknapper, possibly during the
Archaic Period. The remainder of the artifacts are quartz flakes and flake fragments. The quartz outcrop
within the site boundary is a translucent variety. This material will produce sharp edges but would be
unsuitable for manufacturing bifacial tools. Most of the quartz flakes are more of a milky quartz, indicating
that the artifacts found at the site may not be related to the raw material naturally occurring within the site
boundary.

None of the quartz artifacts had cobble cortex indicating that creek cobbles were being used. The
southern part of the site follows a long narrow ridge toe down to the edge of Crabtree Creek. At the very
base of this landform is an outcrop of metavolcanic material. The material is not suitable for flintknapping
stone tools.
Site 31WA2331 is a prehistoric site consisting of a sparse scatter of quartz artifacts and a single
metavolcanic projectile point fragment. Despite the presence of an exposure of quartz material within the
site boundaries (Figure 4.32), there is no indication that quarrying activities took place at the site. The
eroded setting has little potential for the presence of intact features or buried cultural zones. Site 31 WA2331
is unlikely to contribute new or significant information about prehistoric settlement in the Crabtree Creek
watershed and is recommended not eligible for the NRHP.

Summary and Recommendations
Between 12 and 20 August 2020, Archaeological Consultants of the Carolinas, Inc., conducted an
archaeological survey of the Oddfellows tract located in Wake County, North Carolina. This investigation
was conducted on behalf of the Wake Stone Corporation. This survey was requested by the North Carolinas
State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) in a letter dated 7 May 2020. The goals of this investigation
were to identify all archaeological resources located within the project tract, assess those resources for
eligibility to the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and advance management recommendations,
as appropriate.
Background research was conducted at the Office of State Archaeology (OSA) located in Raleigh
and included a review of archaeological site forms, cultural resource reports, and historic maps of the project
area. No previously recorded archaeological sites are located in the project tract. A review of the Office of
Survey and Planning's website (HPOWEB) was also consulted to determine the presence of any recorded
architectural resources within the project tract. None are present in the project tract.
Prior to beginning field work, factors such as soil drainage and topography were used to define
portions of the project tract that had high potential for the presence of archaeological deposits. These areas
total approximately 35 acres (14.2 ha) and include ridge tops, knolls, and ridge toes. Shovel tests were
excavated at 30-meter intervals along parallel transects spaced 30 meters apart in high potential areas. The
remaining 70 acres (28.3 ha) were considered to have low archaeological potential. Low potential areas
were surveyed by pedestrian walkover and judgmentally placed shovel tests. All areas of exposed ground
surface were inspected for cultural remains.
Inc. Oddfellows Tract
Wake County, North Carolina

Five archaeological sites (31 WA2327 through 31 WA2331) were identified during this
investigation. These sites include two prehistoric sites and three historic sites. The prehistoric components
are of an unknown age. The historic components date to the twentieth century. These resources have been
adequately documented during this investigation and determined to be unlikely to yield significant data
pertaining to the prehistory or history of the area. All identified archaeological sites are recommended not
eligible for the NRHP. As no significant archaeological sites will be impacted by the proposed development,
clearance to proceed is recommended.

Question 19. Please provide a certified plan, designed by a qualified professional engineer, detailing
how and when flow from Crabtree Creek into the existing or proposed pit from
fractures in the rock would be addressed.
WSC response:
During the due diligence investigations for the potential quarry expansion project on RDUAA's Odd
Fellows tract, Wake Stone Corporation contracted with Groundwater Management Associates, Inc.
(GMA) to provide a hydrogeological evaluation of the existing and proposed quarry sites. GMA devised
and implemented a groundwater evaluation designed to:
• Estimate the extent of the groundwater cone of depression resulting from approximately 40
years of pit development at the Triangle Quarry. This effort allowed GMA to estimate the extent
of the cone of depression that might develop in response to pit development of the RDUAA
tract, and
• Address potential interactions between surface water flow occurring in Crabtree Creek and
groundwater seepage into the existing and proposed quarry pits.
Based on measurements taken of static groundwater levels in available domestic and monitoring wells,
GMA generated a groundwater surface contour map depicting the interpreted groundwater elevations
beneath the existing and proposed quarry sites. GMA also conducted field measurements of Crabtree
Creek stream flow, and through use of accepted instrumentation, and the velocity -area technique,
calculated stream discharge (Q) at three surface water monitoring stations in the project vicinity. GMA's
measured stream gauging data provided no evidence of measurable losses from Crabtree Creek
adjacent to the active quarry pit.
GMA also made site visits to the active quarry pit (individually and in the presence of DEMLR and DWR
personnel) in order to observe characteristic of the crystalline bedrock mass being mined, including
indications of groundwater seepage into the existing pit. Based on their observations made during site
visits, GMA noted that "the quarry pit did not indicate local wetting or other indications of significant
preferential flow of groundwater into the pit..." and "the active mine pit at the Triangle Quarry exhibits a
remarkably dry mine face." In their summary report, GMA states "It was especially notable that the
mine face closest to Crabtree Creek along the western and northern portions of the pit exhibited only
minimal wetness or groundwater seepage into the pit." Additionally, GMA researched estimated
groundwater recharge rates anticipated for piedmont terrain crystalline bedrock and Wake Stone
Corporation's reported pit sump withdrawal data. When GMA factored estimated stormwater runoff
for the active pit catchment area against reported sump withdrawal volumes, they concluded "it is
evident the groundwater flow contribution into the pit from outside the active mine must be very
small."
The above noted GMA observations concerning the small degree of groundwater influx into the Triangle
Quarry pit through fractures in the bedrock corroborate the conditions experienced by Wake Stone
Corporation throughout the systematic development of the Triangle Quarry pit over the past 38 years.
As evidenced by examination of bedrock cores collected during exploration drilling activities on the
RDUAA tract, bedrock fabric and fracture patterns within the bedrock proposed for mining in the new
pit are like those exposed in the Triangle Quarry pit. Based on these observations, Wake Stone
Corporation anticipates potential groundwater influx into the proposed new pit will be similar in nature
and volume to that experienced in the active Triangle Quarry pit. As such, it is impossible for us to
predict "how and when flow from Crabtree Creek into the existing or proposed pit from fractures in the
rock would be addressed." Our observations and experiences throughout the history of the
development of the Triangle Quarry pit, when coupled with the observations and conclusions drawn by
GMA in their Hydrogeologic Evaluation of the Triangle Quarry, give us great confidence that significant
groundwater influx into either pit is not likely to occur. Wake Stone Corporation is a very responsible
quarry operator. In attempting to respond to this question and provide the DEMLR with the information
you requested, we can assure you that should anomalous groundwater influx (suggestive of connectivity
to Crabtree Creek) be experienced while developing the new quarry pit, we will respond accordingly and
to the degree necessary to mitigate concerns for loss of Crabtree Creek flow into either pit. Mitigative
measures could include pressure injection of grouting materials into fracture zones in the bedrock if
proven warranted.
