This letter is to advise you of recent amendments to the North Carolina Mining Act of 1971 which impact the
permit term of your existing mining permit. Pursuant to the passage of House Bill 56, which became law on October 4,
2017 as SL 2017-209, all existing mining permits and any newly issued mining permits are to be issued for the life of site
or for the duration of the lease term. The "life of site" means the period from the initial receipt of a permit for the operation
until the mining operation terminates and the required reclamation is completed.
Considering the above, this letter hereby modifies your existing mining permit to remove all references to the prior
expiration date to convert your permit to a life of site of lease permit effective immediately. No action is required on your
part for this modification to be effective. Please attach this letter to your existing mining permit for future reference. The
mine name and permit number on the permit document, and all existing operating and reclamation conditions contained
therein, shall remain in full force and effect. Furthermore, all provisions of GS §74-51 and GS §74-52 still apply to all new,
transferred and modified mining permits_
In addition to the life of site or lease mining permit provision, SL 2017-209 also enacted a new anndi mining
permit operating fee of $400 per mining permit number_ By statute, the initial payment of this annual $400 fee must be
submitted to this office by December 31, 2017 — see the attached Invoice to remit the initial annual fee payment by this
deadline. Beginning in 2018, the $400 annual operating fee must be submitted by July 1 of each year with the required
Annual Reclamation Report as required by GS §74-55. Failure to submit the fee by the required deadline will result in a
$50/month late fee and could result in the denial of future permit actions and/or revocation of your mining permit.
Lastly, pursuant to GS §74-54, the cap on reclamation bonds has been raised from $500,000 to $1 million. Any

unless you contact this office with a written request to have your bond reevaluated.
The issuance of a mining permit and/or any modification to it does not supersede local zoning regulations. The
responsibility of compliance with any applicable zoning regulations remains with you.
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter. If you have any questions on the above, please contact Ms. Judy
Wehner, Assistant State Mining Specialist, or me at (919) 707-9220,

may occur in other approved areas within the permitted boundary. Authorization
to blast at the blast site may be granted at the time of the verbal reporting of the
high ground vibration or high air blast reading if the circumstances justify verbal
approval. Failure to report will constitute a permit violation.
G. Fyyrock Prevention:
The operator shall take all reasonable precautions to ensure that flyrock is not
thrown beyond areas where the access is temporarily or permanently guarded by
the operator. Failure to take corrective measures to prevent flyrock and
repeated instances of flyrock shall be considered a violation of the Mining Permit.

Subject: Hanson Aggregates Southeast, LLC - Holly Springsly Springs Quarry
Response to December 6, 2016 Land Quality Request for Additional Information
NC Mine Permit No. 92-13 Mine Modification Application Submittal
Dear Ms. Wehner:
Hanson Aggregates Southeast, LLC is pleased to respond to the December 6, 2016 letter from
your Department requesting additional information. Please see the below responses prepared by
Draper Aden Associates. Attached you will find revised M&ECP-1 and X-5 Mine Maps with
highlighted notes addressing the Department concerns. A revised set of calculations with
narrative has also been included.
Specific responses to the comments are as follows:
Please explain how the flow (Q(25)) was arrived at for basin calculations.
Response: Calculations for Sediment Basin No. 20 and supporting
documentation can be found on the attached revised E&S Modifications
packet. Flow (Q(25)) was calculated using the rational method. Additional
information with regard to the data inputs has been included in the revised
calculations.
2. Provide complete supporting calculations for proposed slope drains. Provide inlet and
outlet protection.
Response: Supporting slope drain calculations are included in the revised
calculations of the E&S Modifications packet. Slope drain inlet and outlet
protection details have been added to the revised X-5 Mine Map.
3. Provide supporting calculations for diversions at top of new fill slope and access road
ditches not draining into the pit area. Provide a pond maintenance Schedule.
Response: Supporting calculations for the diversion berms above Sediment
Basin 20 are included in the revised calculations of the E&S Modifications
packet.
As discussed with Mr. Tyrus Clayton, Jr., PE, the access and haul roads on
the mine site do not have road side ditches. They are constructed with
safety berms on the downhill side of the road way. These berms serve both
as safety berms and diversion berms to route water to rock filter exits for
sedimentation control. These rock filters are field located at natural low,
points in the road profile, not more than 200 feet apart. A new detail for this
has been added to X-1_
Maintenance notes have been added to the Stone baffle detail on Mine Map
X-5.
The stone baffles shown in the existing Detention Ponds #2 and #3 are being
added to assist the mine operators with sediment cleanout of the ponds.
These ponds are located below several proposed and existing sediment
removal devices. However, over the life of the site, sedimentation has
occurred in this pond. These ponds serve as the primary water supply for
plant operations and are in need of cleaning to restore the capacity. All
sediment removed will be placed within an area of the mine that either drains
to the pit or to a constructed sediment control device. A note to this effect
has been added to M&ECP-9 Mine Map.
4. Provide measures to prevent potential scouring of sediment basin berm from the
diversion and slope Ur dif �j.
Response: Rip rap pads are shown on X 5 Mine Map where flow from
diversion ditches enters the basin. Rip rap pads have been added where
flow from slope drains enter the basin.
5. Provide stabilization methods for basin berm slopes (both up & down stream). Provide
proof that the rip rap baffles meet the baffle requirements in the Erosion & Sedimentation
Control Manual. Provide proof that the required basin storage has compensated for the
area displaced by the stone baffles. Provide a clean out and/or replacement schedule for
the baffles.
Recnnncp- Stahili7atinn mathnrl_c inr_lijrlinn lininn with "race. arP chnwn nn
the revised X-5 Mine Map. Calculations have been revised to show adequate
storage in Basin 20 with the stone baffle displacement included.
Water Detention Ponds #2 and #3 were not designed for sedimentation; they
are storage ponds that provide water to the plant operations. Rock baffles
are proposed to provide access for cleaning the ponds and restoring
available storage space.
A clean -out and/or replacement schedule has been added to the X-5 Mine
Map, and it is no different than normal basin maintenance: the ponds are
cleaned when sediment has reached 50% of total depth. The proposed stone
baffles are constructed with shot rock to provide heavy equipment access
and a Class B filter mat for sedimentation and flow control. If the Class B
inlet mat becomes plugged, the inlet mat can be cleaned and re -installed.
J i i
The detail shown on Mine Map X-5 has been revised and maintenance notes
added.
6. Provide the slopes for the fill area on the sediment basin plan view. Provide a
construction sequence for the fill area and include staged revegetation.
Response: Slope details are shown on the sediment basin plan view on the
revised X-5 Mine Map. A fill area construction sequence, includin_q sta__ged
revegetation, has been added to the revised X-5 Mine Map.
7. Provide supporting calculations for pipe with a dissipation device for the crossing
diversion above Sediment Trap #5. Provide calculations for existing pipe below existing
retention pond #3.
Response: There is no pipe near the existing Sediment Trap #5. The existing
diversion berm has been constructed and lined with rock to allow for the
existing access traffic to pass over the diversion berm.
The calculations for the Detention Pond #3 outlet structure pipe was
approved years ago and will not be affected by this modification. The new
access road will be located on and existing road bed located on the top of
the Detention Pond #3 dam. There are no access roads or disturbance
planned downstream of the dam.
8. Provide proof that the existing culvert and dissipation device are adequate to Dandle in
flow from access road ditches. Provide calculations for the pipe, ditches & dissipation
device.
Response: The proposed access roads surrounding Retention Ponds #2 and
#3 will facilitate accessing the rock baffles for pond maintenance activities.
The roads are proposed to be located on or near old road beds. There will be
minimal impacts from the proposed access road and minimal added water
run-off to the same Retention Ponds.

Response: A zoomed in view of the pit expansion has been included on the
Mine Map M&ECP-t. The existing haul road will be extended westward below
the proposed Sediment Trap #6 and all drainage will flow to the pit area. The
former limits dash line is shown in gray, while the proposed pit limit is
shown with a black dash line. The expansion is needed to provide proper
sloping from the extended haul road to the top of the pit.
The limits of the pond access roads will be per the new detail located on the
revised X-1 Mine Map.

The calculations attached are for the expansion of the leased asphalt plant site located within the mine
limits. These areas were not previously depicted in the 2014 modification application packet. The
revisions and modifications now shown are as follows:
Enlargement of the Asphalt Plant Storage Area: The existing asphalt plant lease area is located
immediately to the north of the mine plant site. This area is proposed to be expanded in size to the west
of the current area. This expansion will require soil fill to be placed to level the storage area expansion.
Drainage from this area will drain to the east and down the new slope via rock lined channels. A new
sediment basin (Sed Basin #20) will be constructed between the new slope and on the eastern side of the
existing Retention Pond #1. Drainage from Sed Basin #20 will be into the retention pond.
Attached are the calculations for Sediment Basin #20 and the rock lined slope swales and diversions.

SUBJECT: Mining Permit Modification for Hanson Aggregates Southeast, LLC, Holly Springs
Quarry— Permit No. 92-13, Wake County, North Carolina.
Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the subject
permit application. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Mining Act of 1971
(as amended, 1982) (G.S. 74-46 through 74-68 15 NCAC 5).
The applicant is requesting a modification of their permit to mine granite. The total permitted area is
286.32 acres. The modification involves 4.75 acres within the previously approved permitted boundary.
The applicant proposes to expand the existing tenant asphalt plant storage area. A new sediment basin
will be constructed and drain into Retention Pond t11. Lastly, the Pit area will be expanded by 75 feet in
the area north of Retention Pond H3. Access roads and stone baffles will be constructed around Retention
Ponds 82 and 43.
As indicated in previous renewal and modification documentation (Shari Bryant, NCWRC, August 22,
2008), the operation discharges stormwater mid groundwater. A minimum 50-fool undisturbed buffer
will be maintained between mining activities and natural watercourses on the site. Final reclamation
includes an open water area; the plant and stockpile areas will be seeded with grass. Ms. Bryant noted
that according to the reclamation plan, Jim Branch would be excavated. The NCWRC questions if it
would be feasible to relocate the stream channel using natural channel design. Excavation would
eliminate aquatic and terrestrial wildlife habitat, whereas constructing a natural channel and establishing
riparian buffers would restore some of the lost aquatic and terrestrial wildlife habitat and further minimize
impacts to wildlife resources
Jim Branch and its tributaries flow through the site. Jim Branch is a tributary to Shearon -Harris Reservoir
in the Cape Fear River basin. Shearon -Harris Reservoir supports a diverse fishery including sunfish
(Lepomis spp.), crappie (Pwuoxis sp.), catfish (Iclaturus sp.), and largemouth bass (Microplerus
salmoides).

50-foot undisturbed native, forested buffer along intermittent streams and wetlands should be_
maintained between any mining, construction or land -disturbing activities. Maintaining
undisturbed, forested buffers along these areas will reduce impacts to aquatic and terrestrial
wildlife resources, water quality and aquatic habitat both within and downstream of the site. In
addition, these buffers will provide a travel corridor for wildlife species. Grassed buffers,
particularly fescue, do not provide the necessary and highly valuable functions that forested
buffers provide. Sediment and erosion control structures should be located outside of the buffers.
Water discharges from the site should be proportional to the size of the receiving stream.
Turbidity of the discharge should be maintained at or below the permit requirement. High water
discharge rates and turbidity can negatively impact aquatic and fisheries resources within and
downstream of the project area. Excessive silt and sediment loads can have various detrimental
effects on aquatic resources, including destruction of spawning habitat, suffocation of eggs and
clogging of gills.
If the open water area is stocked with fish during reclamation, only native piedmont fish species
should be used. A stocking permit may be required to stock any species of fish, mollusks or
crustaceans. Applications for a stocking permit are available at http:Ihvww.Iicxvildlife.oi, . There
is no fee associated with the permit application process. Please contact Kirk Rundle, District
Fisheries Biologist, at (252) 903-7744 or kirk.rundle g,ncwildlife.org for additional information
regarding fish stocking and the need for a stocking permit.

the reclamation plan. An exact seeding mixture would need to take into account soil types,
moisture, pl-I and degree of slope of areas to be stabilized. Relatively shallow sediment basins
can be reclaimed as wetlands where practicable. Further information and ideas on establishing
vegetation or incorporating other measures that are beneficial for wildlife is available upon
request.
The use of biodegradable and wildlife -friendly sediment and erosion control devices is strongly
recommended. Silt fencing, fiber rolls and/or other products should have loose -weave netting
that is made of natural fiber materials with movable joints between the vertical and horizontal
twines. Silt fencing and similar products that have been reinforced with plastic or metal mesh
Should be avoided as they impede the movement of terrestrial wildlife species.
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on this permit modification. If I can be of further assistance,

Holly Springs Quarry
Wake County
Please fad attached a copy of the mining permit modification request for the above referenced project.
The Holly Springs Quarry, located in Wake County, does not appear to have an unduly adverse CITecl on
ground water supplies and has previously registered their withdrawals, with the Division of Water
Resources, as facility ID #034U-00 10.
Facilities are required to register their water withdrawals in accordance with the North Carolina General
Statute G.S. 143-215.22H. This statute requires any non-agricultural water user who withdraws 100,000
gallons or more in any one day of ground water or surface water to register and update withdrawals. This
statue also requires transfers of 100,000 gallons or more in any one day of surface water from one river
basin to another river basin to register and update their water transfers. Water withdrawal registrants must
complete the annual water use reporting form by April I for the previous year. The registration form may
be obtained from the following link:
hlto://www.ncwaler.nrg/Permits and RcoFigiraiinn/Water Withdrawal and TranslCr Registration.
Il'you have further questions regarding the water withdrawal registration please contact John Barr with the
Division of Water Resources at (919) 707-9021 or email him aljohn.barr@ncdenr.gov.

Hanson Aggregates — Holly Springs Quarry
NC Nine Permit No. 92-13, Wake County
John,
Our Asphalt Plant tenant needs additional yard space, and Draper Associates has drawn a draft plan to do so,
including the proposed Sediment Basin SB-20. A draft expansion description with supporting calculations has
been attached to this email, as well as blow ups of the relative portions of the mine map.
On the attached maps, Sheet 1 of 5 shows the existing asphalt plant area shaded in green and the proposed
expansion area w/basin shaded in yellow (not to be confused with the yellow buffers shown outside of the
project area).
Thp nrnnn<pd hacin CR-9n will food the axi ono Watpr Rptpntinn Pnnd 91
Sheet 2 of 5 shows construction details forthe basin installation and location of the permanent slope drains.
Sheet 3 of 5, which is part of the proposed Mine Map X-4, shows the basin specs.
Sheet 4 of 5, also part of Mine Map X-4, shows the permanent slope, baffle, and riser details.
Sheet 5 of 5, shows an area in the SW quadrant of the property. Hanson plans to install some rock baffles in
the existing water retention ponds #2 and t!3 to provide better and more concentrated sediment control. We
would like to install access roads to these areas so the basins can be better maintained.
Draper can be ready to submit the mine modification application in the next couple of weeks, but we are
forwarding this project summary to you to see if you think a pre -meeting is necessary, and are there any
concerns you see or envision based on the attached information. We look forward to hearing from you.

located immediately to the north of the quarry plant site. (See Map # M&ECP-1) The
proposed expansion area is west of the existing asphalt storage yard and will require soil fill,
to reach current grade. Drainage from this area will drain to the west and down the new slope
via -rock lined channels. Sediment Basin #20 will be constructed downstream of the new
slope and will drain into the existing Retention Pond #1. Calculations for the erosion control
and a project narrative are attached, and Map # X-5 shows enlarged erosion control details
for this project.
Also, included in this modification is a request to expand the Pit area another 75-feet,
acres) in the area justinorth. of -the existing Retest on Pond #3 to accommodate proper slope
to aul{roadylocated"in the Pit. In this same area`in the so a liuthwest"quadrant of the property,
Hanson plans to better maintain and service the existing Retention Ponds #2 and #3 by
installing access roads around the ponds and install stone baffles as shown on Map #
,M&ECP-1.
The enclosed check #213721185 was made out for $1,000.00, and yet, the proper fee for a
modification for less than 25 acres is $7,500.00. Hanson requests the Department hold the
extra $250.00 and apply it towards the upcoming Gardner mine permit renewal submittal.

permit. More specifically, all recorded values were at or below0.092 ips at the closest offsite occupied
structure (the location where compliance; with the permit limits is determined). According to extensive
research by the U.S. Bureau of Mines and'others, particle velocities below 0.5 ips effectively eliminate the
possibility of any structural damage.' Please note that damages in well pressure and casings of wells only
observed by the USBM at ground vibration levels above 4.7 to.25.0 ips. .
All airblast readings, a measurement of the atmospheric pressure wave (overpressure) with units in
psi or dBL, were also below the maximum -allowable limits specified in the mining permit and well below the
U. S. Bureau of Mines' recognized' level of 164 dBL for prevention of glass breakage. A key point worth
noting is that glass breakage occurs at much lower levels of overpressure than structural damage, such as
cracking plaster.
Thank you for your interest and patience in this matter. Hopefully 1 have answered your concerns
adequately. If you should have any additional questions or concerns, please contact me at (919) 707-9220.

Janet Boyer,
I have done some research on my water quality and have come across some important documents, including at original water test in 1989
before the query started operating. Attached document is an explanation of what 1 see happening with my well wateu(ucid mine drainage and
metal lutahing). All the tests that I have show a continual decline In pH and increase in iron since the original test In 1989 (attached). "then a
test from 2001. Are you familiar with why the quarry (Ndlo L.'I'eer) now (Hanson Aggregates) would have been required to lest
surrounding wells before sharing operations? Please see attached and let me know what you think, Have you had any case ofthis happening
in the past? The info that I leave collected over this pasryear does suggest that the operations are causing the contamination (low pH high
iron) ofmy well water. Also since 1989 the original well on the property has been drilled deepertwice due to a decline in water supply, After
each blast iron sediment is pushed into my well and the water is not usable for days. The pH has continued to test low, but iron sedimentl
turbidity is present in die well water for days after each blast.
1 am located at 6504 Cass Holt Rd. Holly Spring 27540 And the Quarry is located at 7000 Cass Holt Rd. The blasting is occurring
approximately 2000 feet from the location of my well. I have been in touch with NCDNR division of water quality to schedule water testing.
Please let me know who will oversee quarry operations to help are correct this?
thanks

Janet,
Thanks for your help and info in this matter.
I had a meeting with 1-Janson Aggre
gates; Vibratech, and my well company yesterday. I am glad that everyone
was able to meet at my house and appears to be working with me. Two weeks before the meeting I asked for
blast records/ site of blast/ and if possible, on site well monitoring records.I did have a problem with obtaining
the original blast records. The records were put into a presentation but no original records were brought to the
meeting,. I asked vibratech if I could see the originals and the response was "the records are not mine to show
You, they do not belong to vibratech". After the meeting it was decided that I am not comfortable with a
"third" party that is being paid by the quarry. Why are these original records such a secret?
am officially putting in a blast comp~ - lain starting in
Oct 2014 - .January 20 2016.
If possible I would like records of the blasting since Hanson took over the quarry. My house was built in 2007
but the real problems with my well started in 2009. If you need specific dates i can get them to you. My water
has been clear since approximately Dec.20 2015 but the blast yesterday has turned my well water dirty again.
"Thanks and don't hesitate to call with questions. Just keep me updated at your convenience and I can stop by
to view any info you might think is important.

Acid mine drainage is considered one of
mining's most serious threats to water
resources A mine with acid mine drainage
has the potential for
long-term devastating
impacts on rivers,
streams and aquatic life.
Hnw nnvc Prune"?
Acid mine drainage is a
concern at many metal
mines, because metals
such as gold, copper.
silver and molybdenum,
are often found in rock
with sulfide minerals. When the sulfides in
the rock are excavated and exposed to water
and air during mining, they form sulfuric
acid, This acidic water can dissolve other
harmful metals in the surrounding rock. If
uncontrolled, the acid mine drainage may
runoff into streams or rivers or leach into
groundwater. Acid mine drainage may be
released from any part of the mine where
sulfides are exposed to air and water,
including waste rock piles, tailings, open
pits, underground tunnels, and leach pads.
HARM TO FISH & OTHER AQUATIC LIFE
if mine waste is acid -generating the impacts
to fish, animals and plants can be severe.
Many streams impacted by acid mine
drainage have a "ta
pH value of 4 orlower —similar
to battery acid,''Plants, animals,
and fish areunlikely to
survive in
streams such as this. For example, acid and
metals runoff from the Questa molybdenum
mine in New Mexico has harmed biological
life in eight miles of the Red River.''
Toxic META IS
Acid mine drainage
also dissolves toxic
metals, such as
copper, aluminum,
cadmium, arsenic,
lead and mercury,
from the
surrounding rock.
These metals,
particularly the iron,
may coat the stream
bottom with an orange -red colored slime
called yeliowboy. Even in very small
amounts, metals can be toxic to humans and
wildlife. Carried in water, the metals can
travel far, contaminating streams and
groundwater for great distances. The
impacts to aquatic life may range from
immediate fish kills to sub -lethal, impacts
affecting growth, behavior or the ability to
reproduce.
Metals are particularly problematic because
they do not break down in the environment.
They settle to the bottom and persist in the
stream for long periods of time, providing a
long-term source of contamination to the
aquatic insects that live there, and the fish
that feed on them. Over 100 miles of the
Clark Fork R de'in Montana 'he Coca!
River in Idaho, and the Columbia
River in Washington are contaminated by
metals pollution from historic mining
activities upstream.
PERPETUAL POIJ.U'rR)N
Acid mine drainage is particularly harmful
because it can continue indefinitely --
EARTHWORMS Fact Sheet -ACID MIME DMIMAGE Page 1

•
cousin§ damage long alter mining has
ended. Due to the severity of water quality
impacts from acid mine drainage, many
hardtack mines across the west require
water treatment in perpetuity. For example,
government officials have determined that
acid drainage at the Golden Sunlight mine
will continue for thousands of years., Water
treatment call be a significant economic
burden if the company files for bankruptcy
or refuses to cover water treatment costs.
For example, acid runoff from the
Summitville Mine in Colorado killed all
biological life in a 17-mile stretch of the
Alamosa Rivet'. The site was designated a
federal Superfund site, and the EPA is
spending $30,000 a day to capture and treat
acid ou off.6 In South Dakota, Dakota
Mining Co. abandoned the Brehm mine in
1998, leaving South Dakota with $40
million in reclamation costs - largely due to
acid mine drainage,' And, at the Zortman
Landusky Mine in Montana, the Slate of
Montana was left with millions in water
treatment costs when Pegasus Gold Corp.
filed for bankruptcy in 1998.s
Even with existing technology, acid mine
drainage is virtually impossible to stop once
the reactions begin. To permit an acid
generating mine, means that future
generations will take responsibility for a
mine that must be managed for possibly
hundreds of years. Predictions about the
success of managing this waste in the long
term are, at best, speculative.()

Janet,
'thanks for your help and into in this matter.
1 had a meeting with Hanson Aggregates Vibratech, and my well company yesterday. I am glad that everyone
was able to meet at my house and appears to be working with me. Two weeks before the meeting I asked for
blast records/ site of blast/ and if possible, on site well monitoring records.I did have a problem with obtaining
the original blast records. The records were put into a presentation but no original records were brought to the
meeting. I asked vibratech if I could see the originals and the response was "the records are not mine to show
you, they do not belong to vibratech". After the meeting it was decided that 1 am not comfortable with a "third"
party that is being paid by the quarry. Why are these original records such a secret?
1 am officially putting in a blast complaint starting in
Oct 2014 - January 20 2016.
If possible I would like records of the blasting since Hanson look over the quarry. My house was built in 2007
but the real problems with my well started in 2009. If you need specific dates I can get them to you. My water
has been clear since approximately Dec.20 2015 but the blast yesterday has turned my well water dirty again.
Thanks and don't hesitate to call with questions. .lust keep me updated at your convenience and I can stop by to
view any into you might think is important.

produced from the blast at the Holly Springs Quarry since 2009 has caused her well water to
become cloudy.
As provided in the mining permit for this site, you are requested to provide this office
duplicate copies of all shot records related to the blasts conducted from November 1, 2015
through January 20, 2016, including any seismograph recordings made for this office's review.
It is recommended that you discuss this matter with her. Her address and telephone
number are as follows:
6516 Cass Holt Road
Holly Springs, North Carolina 27540

modification includes installation of an overburden pile in the northeast corner of the property,
expansion of the existing tailings stockpile just upstream of the settling cells and preparation of
an area for future plant re -location by filling an area with overburden and other fill in the
southern part of the property. The modification also includes the installation and maintenance
of all erosion and sediment control measures. A copy of the modified permit is enclosed.
The conditions in the modified permit were based primarily upon the initial application.
Modifications were made as indicated by the modification request and as required to insure
compliance with The Mining Act of 1971. The expiration date, mine name and permit number
shall remain the same as before the modification. I would like to draw your particular attention
to the following conditions where minor additions or changes were made: Operating Condition
Nos. 3C, 4C, 5A, 10B and 12E.
The issuance of mining permit and/or any modification to it does not supersede local
zoning regulations. Thy ,esponsibility of compliance with any applicable zoning regulations
lies with you.
As a reminder, your permitted acreage at this site is 286.32 acres and the amount of
land you are approved to disturb is 173.25 acres.

7. Surface Drainage
The affected land shall be graded so as to prevent collection of pools of water that are,
or likely to become, noxious or foul. Necessary structures such as drainage ditches or
conduits shall be constructed or installed when required to prevent such conditions.
8. Blasting
The operator shall monitor each blast with a seismograph located at a distance
no farther than the closest off site regularly occupied structure not owned or
leased by the operator. A seismographic record including peak particle velocity, air
overpressure, and vibration frequency levels shall be kept for each blast (except as
provided under Operating Condition Nos. 8B and 8D of this permit). The following
blasting conditions shall be observed by the mine operator to prevent hazard to persons
and adjacent property from surface blasting:
A. Ground Vibration With Monitoring:

D. Air blast Without Monitoring:
In the event of seismograph malfunction or other condition which prevents
monitoring, blasting shall be conducted in accordance with the following
formulas:
U = 82 (D/Wo.33)-i z
To convert U (psi) to P (dBL):
w
Page 8
P = 20 x log (U/2.9x10"9)
Confined Air blast/Overpressure (dBL)
fnr ni inrnj eiti in+lnn-
A=P-35
U = Unconfined air overpressure (pounds per square inch).
W = Maximum charge weight of explosives per delay period of 8.0 milliseconds
or more (pounds).
D = Distance from the blast site to the nearest inhabited building not owned or
leased by the mine operator (feet).
P = Unconfined air overpressure (decibels).
A = Air blast or air overpressure for typical quarry situations (decibels).
The air blastloverpressure shall not exceed 129 decibels, for the purposes of this
Section.
E, Record Keeping:
The operator shall maintain records on each individual blast describing: the total
number of holes; pattern of holes and delay of intervals; depth and size of holes;
type and total pounds of explosives; maximum pounds per delay interval; amount
of stemming and burden for each hole; blast location; distance from blast to
closest offsite regularly occupied structure; and weather conditions at the time of
the blast. Records shall be maintained at the permittee's mine office and copies
shall beprovidedto the Department upon request.
Excessive Ground Vibration/Air blast Reporting:
If around vibration or Air hlast limits are exceeded the nneratnr will immediately
report the event with causes and corrective actions to the Department. Use of
explosives at the blast site that produced the excessive reading shall cease until
corrective actions approved by the Department are taken. However, blasting
may occur in other approved areas within the permitted boundary. Authorization
to blast at the blast site may be granted at the time of the verbal reporting of the
high ground vibration or high air blast reading if the circumstances justify verbal
approval. Failure to report will constitute a permit violation.
G. Flvrock Prevention:
The operator shall take all reasonable precautions to ensure that flyrock is not
thrown beyond areas where the access is temporarily or permanently guarded by
the operator. Failure to take corrective measures to prevent flyrock and
repeated instances of flyrock shall be considered a violation of the Mining Permit.

SUBJECT: Mining Permit Modification for Hanson Aggregates Southeast, LLC, Holly Springs
Quarry — Permit No. 92-13, Wake County, North Carolina.
Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission (NCWRC) have reviewed the
subject permit application. Our comments are provided in accordance with provisions of the Mining Act
of 1971 (as amended, 1982) (G.S. 74-46 through 74-68 15 NCAC 5).
Hanson Aggregates Southeast, LLC is requesting a modification of their permit for mining
granite. The total permitted area is 296.32 acres. The modification involves S.15 acres within the
previously approved permitted boundary. The modification includes installing an overburden pile,

applicant indicates groundwater and stormwater are discharged from the site, and a 50-foot buffer will be
maintained along all wetlands and natural watercourses. The reclamation plan includes allowing the mine
excavation to fill with groundwater and stormwater. The plant site, stockpile areas and overburden
disposal areas will be graded and seeded with grasses.
Unnamed tributaries to Jim Branch flow through the site. Jim Branch is a tributary to Shearon- /
Harris Reservoir in the Cape Fear River basin. Shearon -Hams Reservoir supports a diverse fishery
including sunfish (Lepomis spp.), crappie (Pomoxis sp.), catfish (7crolurus sp.), and largemouth bass 11��
(Microprerus saimoides). NCWRC game lands are located adjacent to the site. 1
According to aerial photography, the area of the proposed modification is forested; however, no
stream channels will be impacted. Since the proposed modification includes areas within, the previously
approved permitted boundary, we will not object to the proposed modification. We recommend sediment,
and erosion control measures are installed prior to any land clearing or construction. These measures
should be routinely inspected and properly maintained. Excessive silt and sediment loads can have
numerous detrimental effects on aquatic resources including destruction of spawning habitat, suffocation
of eggs, and clogging of gills of aquatic species. 4

Tyros,
I apologia for my late response. Jn regards to our site visit on August 4, 2014, Upon review of the area (as identified on maps
supplied tome), it was determined that die area in question is not ajurisdictional wetland regulated under section 404 of the clean
water act, and therefore would not require any department of the army permitting for activities undertaken in that area. Please let me
know if you need anything else.

The NPOES SW and W W Permit NCG020000 covers closed loop recycle systems, designed to exclude ail stoonwater run-off from
the system and operate at or below two-(eet of freeboard. These systems maybe permitted by a Nan-i ischarme Recycle System
Permit from the Aquifer Protection Section LAPS) OR may instead be permitted under NCG020000 to eliminate an additional permit
Recycle systems that do not meet those criteria are considered discharging systems, and are subiect to the NCG020000 discharge
permit.
"To obtain 7010 flows, pemrittees must contact the DWR Stormwater Permitting Unit. If DWR does not have a flow estimate for a
specific stream, peanittees will be asked to obtain one. Permittees should contact J. Curtis Weaver of the USGS: 919-571-4043, for
more information on obtaining a 7010 flow. USGS will not determine a 7Q70 flow for tidally influenced water bodies.

Hanson Aggregates
Holly Spring Quarry
Wake County
Please find attached a copy of the mining permit modification request for the above referenced
project.
The Holly Spring Quarry located in Wake County does not appear to have an unduly adverse effect
on ground water supplies and has previously registered its groundwater withdrawals with the
Division of Water Resources as facility ID# 0340-0010
Facilities not in the fifteen county Central Coastal Plain Capacity Use Area are required to register
their water withdrawals in accordance with the North Carolina General Statute G.S. 143-215.22H.
This statue requires any non-agricultural water user who withdraws 100,000 gallons or more many
one day of ground water or surface water to register and update withdrawals. This statue also
requires transfers of 100,000 gallons or more in any one day of surface water from one river basin
to another river basin to register and update their water transfers. Water withdrawal registrants must
complete the annual water use reporting form by April I for the previous year.

Dear Ms. Wehner:

1. In the northeast corner of the property, Sediment Basin #12 and a diversion ditch/berm
will be constructed to treat runoff from the proposed overburden pile. A new haul road
will be constructed along the existing screening berm to access this area. The new
haul road crosses an existing drainage discharge along the eastern property edge.
That location has,been investigated by representatives of the U. S. Army Corps of
Engineers and the NCDENR Division of Water Resources, and it has been determined
that the proposed haul road will not impact the existing stream to the southwest of the
proposed overburden storage area. However, a roadside berm and sediment
screening device have been detailed to filter any stormwater discharge from the haul
road to the stream.
2. Any run-off from the proposed expansion of the existing tailings pond will eventually
flow across the low area and under the south haul road, discharging near the existing
Water Retention Pond #2.
3. The proposed fill in the existing low area will be constructed in two phases:
• Phase 1: located north of the route of the proposed pipe across the low area
• Phase 2: beginning at the east end of that pipe and progressing west as the
pipe is installed and extended
A rock dam will be constructed at the existing pipe under the south haul road to treat
runoff reaching that point during the fill operation. Due to the short nature of the fill
activity and the existence of two detention ponds in series down gradient of this
discharge, a skimmer basin was determined to be an unfeasible effort for this location.
The existing pipe will be abandoned upon installation of the two proposed pipes. This
location has been investigated by representatives of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers
and the NCDENR Division of Water Resources and it has been determined that the
proposed area has no jurisdictional waters or wetlands present.
Two sediment basins will be installed prior to construction of the tailings overburden
pile to treat runoff from that area. Diversion ditch/berms will be utilized around the toe of
the pile to direct runoff to the basins.
Enclosed please find the following:
- 1 (one) original mine application and 5 (five) copies

C. PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES
1. Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation of the mine and reference the
,sequence to the mine map(v). Attach additional sheets as needed.
The pit is developed in the normal fashion for a mature granite operation. Areas adjacent to the existing pit
are stripped to rock by dirt haulers or our contractors. This disturbed area is made to drain back to the pit or to
approved erosion control structures. The sequence of existing pit, stripped areas and future pit areas is shown
on the submitted Mine Map.
* This modification involves installing overburden piles in the northeast corner ofthe property, expanding the
existing tailings stockpile just upstream ofthe settling cells, and preparing an area for a future plant re-
location by filling in with overburden and other till in the southern part ofthe property.
Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during
mining to prevent offsite sedimentation (include specific plans for sediment and erosion control for mine
excauation(v), waste piles, access/mine roads and process areas), and give a detailed sequence of installation
and schedule for maintenance of the measures. Locale and label all sediment and erosion control measures
on the mine map(5) and provide, typical cross-secllons1constructlon details of each measure. Engineering
designs and calculations shall be required when needed to justify the adequacy ofany proposed measures.
Erosion control measures are noted in the attached Mine Map. These structures are all designed according to
the specifications shown in the Surface Mining Manual distributed by the Land Quality Section. Details for
all existing structures have been submitted and approved through past submittals.
*This modification involves the installation of additional erosion control structures, and details can be
reviewed on the attached modification mine maps and E&S Control Modification Calculations. Material
from basin and ditch construction will be utilized in any berm construction.
3. a. Will the operation involve washing the material mined, recycling process water, or other waste water
handling? Yes X No If yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be
used.
The crushed stone production process requires water for washing the sized stone products at the wash
screen to remove dust and tines for the eventual use in asphalt and ready mix concrete. The water is
recycled through a closed circuit process water settling pond system. Wash water from the plant is
collected and delivered to the primary pond, where most ofthe fines are removed by simply settling out of
suspension. The water then flows to the secondary pond where settling ofadditional finer particles takes
place. The secondary pond also serves as a fresh water pond, and the clean water is pumped back to the
plant for re -use in the stone washing process. Due to loss to evaporation from the ponds and loss into the
stone products, the water balance is periodically restored by supplementing with groundwater pumped
from the quarry as part of the dewatering process.
Water is also used for dust control at the facility. Water is used at the processing plants by introduction
through sprays at crushers and at conveyor transfer points to control dust emissions. It is also used in the
water truck to control dust emanating from haul roads, stockpiles, and the shot rock pile in the pit. Water
used in dust suppression is usually pulled either from the quarry dewatering or from the secondary
setilingirresh water pond.
At the present time, no chemicals are used in any of these processes; however, it may be necessary to use
DWQ approved flocculants in the recycle system to help achieve a cleaner source of water for the plant
washing and dust control. It may also become necessary to use chemicals such as calcium chloride or
organic surfactants on the haul roads and crusting agents on the stone product stockpiles.
b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or wastewater from the mine or plant as a point discharge to
the waterc of the Ctate9 Yet X I�Tn l r—, 1,. r'.,fl 1 I. OL" l �L 1;..,,1 ,.. ,_,. J

locate all proposed discharge points (along tv th their method of'slahilization) on your mine map(s).
-6-
We currently operate under the NPDES COC No. NCG020124 General Permit that covers the discharge
ofexcess groundwater and stormwater from the quarry dewatering process, as well as any excess water
from our closed circuit settling pond system. The discharge water passes through a separate settling pond
prior to being discharged into the Little River. The NPDES Permit also covers stormwater from the mine
sites through multiple point source discharge points.
c. Will any part of the proposed mine excavation(s) extend below the water table?
Yes X Na . If yes, do you intend to dewater the excavation(s)? Yes X
No . If yes, what impact, if any, will mine dewatering have on neighboring wells? Estimated
withdrawal rate in gallons per day: 360,000_ . Locate all existing wells on the mine map(s) that lie
within 500 feet of the proposed excavation area. Provide data to support any conclusions or statements
made, including any monitoring well data, well construction data and current water withdrawal rates.
Indicate whether the proposed mine locale is served by a public water system or private wells.
Granite mines do not typically cause a problem with wells on adjacent properties. "this site does not have
a history of' such problems. The amount of groundwater contained in the pit discharge is unknown. A
large amount of water discharged is stormwater collected in the pit sump. No wells are located within
500 feet of the excavation area. Dwellings around the quarry are served by water supply wells or public
water supply.
Removal of tlic overburden has very little effect on shallow wells in the area since the pits, for the most
part, sit on a topographic high and very little recharge area for shallow wells will be disturbed. The
overburden materials in the pit areas are silts, clays, and sand which inhibit groundwater migration.
No impact to wells within 500 feet of the quarries have been reported.
d. If you answered yes to any of the above questions, provide evidence that you have applied for or
obtained the appropriate water quality permit(s) (i.e., non -discharge, NPDES, Stormwater, etc.) from the
Division of Water Quality, Water Quality Section. In addition, the applicant is required to register water
use with the Division of Water Resources if the operation withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day
and needs a capacity use permit from the Division of Water Resources if the operation lies in a capacity
use area and withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day.
The Holly Springs Quarry operates under NPDES COC No. NCG020087 General Permit. Water
withdrawals are reported annually by April I"to the Division of Water Resources under Facility ID No.
0340-0010.
4. a. Will the operation involve crushing or any other air contaminant emissions?
Yes X No if yes, indicate evidence that you have applied for or obtained an air
quality permit issued by the Division of Air Quality or local governing body.
NC Air Permit No. 06313 R 12, issued by NCDENR DAQ is in place for quarrying. A complete system
ofwater sprays are in place at all crushers and conveyor transfer points to control particulate emissions
from these sources.
b. How will dust from stockpiles, haul roads, etc., be controlled?
A water truck is used to wet the haul roads, muck piles, and stockpiles as needed to control fugitive
emissions from these sources.
5. a. A buffer will be required between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of-
way. It may be an unexcavated buffer (no excavation, but roadways, berms and erosion &
sedimentation control measures may be installed within it), an undisturbed buffer (no disturbance
within the buffer whatsoever), or a combination of the two, depending upon the site conditions. Note
that all be located %irithin the mining per mil by undarie i.
-7-
How wide a buffer will be maintained between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary
or right-of-way at this site? A minimum buffer of 25 feet is recommended, although a wider buffer
may be needed depending on site conditions. Show all buffer locations and tividths on the mine
map(y)-
It is anticipated that a minimum 50 foot undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any mining
activity and existing property line or highway right ofway. An additional 50 foot unexcavated buffer
will be maintained and may include visual screening via visual berm or tree plantings. Buffer
locations and widths can be viewed on the attached mine maps.
* This mine modification involves areas with a 5046ot undisturbed buffer from the property line.
b. A minimum 50 foot wide undisturbed buffer will be required between any land disturbing activities
within the mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands unless smaller
undisturbed buffers can be justified. Depending on site conditions, a buffer wider than 50 feet may
be needed.
How wide an undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any land disturbing activities within the
mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands at this site? Show all buffer
locations and widths on the mine map(5).
A 50' wide buffer will be maintained between all wetlands and natural watercourses located on the
site. See attached maps.
* The DWR determined there would be no stream impact in the northeast corner, and there was no
stream in the southern part of the property. The USACE determined there were no wetlands impacted
in the southern portion as well. Please see stream and wetland determination correspondence.
6. a. Describe methods to prevent landslide or slope instability adjacent to adjoining permit boundaries
during mining. Minimum 2 horizontal to 1 vertical slopes or flatter for clayey material and
minimum 3 horizontal to 1 vertical slopes or flatter for sandy material are generally required,
unless technical justification can be provided to allow steeper slopes.
To prevent landslides and/or slope failure adjacent to adjoining properties, cut slopes will be graded
no steeper than 1-1 /2 to 1, and fill slopes will be graded no steeper than 2:1, and proper compaction
procedures will be utilized. All slopes will be stabilized by seeding as soon as possible after grading
has been completed. Necessary erosion controls will be used to prevent slope failure by concentrated
stormwater runoff. Excavation or fill will not generally occur within 100' or 50' respectively of any
adjoining property boundary or right of way except for the installation of�visual screen berms.

d. In hardrock excavations, specify proposed bench widths and heights in feet. Provide cross -sections
of the mine excavation clearly noting the angles of the cut slopes, widths of all safety benches and
mine benches, and the expected maximum depth of the excavation.
At the Holly Springs Quarry, all benches are mined on a'14 to I slope with bench heights of40 to 45
feet and catch benching widths of at least 20 feet.
7. Describe other methods to be taken during mining to prevent physical hazard to any neighboring dwelling
house, public road, public, commercial or industrial building from any mine excavation. Locate all such
structures on the mine map if they are within 300 feet of any proposed excavation.
Sufficient buffers and proper berm construction ensure minimum impact to adjoining property owners. All
quarry shots are designed to prevent excessive vibrations. Additionally; during each shot event, a
seismograph recording will be taken from the closest off -site occupied structure, if access is allowed. in
relation to the shot location. Depending upon production requirements, the event occurs one to three times a
week. Structures within 300 feet are noted on the mine map.
8. Describe what kind of barricade will be used to prevent inadvertent public access along any high wall area
and when it will be implemented. Vegetated earthen berms, appropriate fencing and adequate boulder
barriers may be acceptable high wall barricades. A construction detail/cross-section and location of each
ryne of'barricade to be used must he indicated on the mine map(c).
Access to the property itself is restricted by gates and cables that are kept locked when the quarry is not in
operation. Much of the perimeter is fenced. Berms and overburden disposal areas also block access to much
of the site and inactive highwalls. Barricades of oversized rock are generally placed adjacent to active

from the excavation, stockpiles and waste areas be controlled?
Mine dewatering analytical testing has shown no signs of acid water pollution.
10. a. Describe specific plans (including a schedule of implementation) for screening the operation from
public view such as maintaining or planting trees, bushes or other vegetation, building berms or other
measures. Show the location of all visual screening on the mine maps) and provide cross -sections
through all proposed berms or proposed spacing, .sizes and species for Tree plantings.
Existing trees, terrain and berms effectively screen our operations from nearby roads and homes.
Trees and/or vegetation have been planted on the berms and in such areas as to promote future
long-term screening and soil stability.
b. Could the operation have a significantly adverse effect on the purposes of a publicly owned park,
forest or recreation area? If so, how will such effects (i.e., noise, visibility, etc.) be mitigated?
"There are no publicly owned parks, forest or recreation areas adjacent to the quarry.
11. Will explosives be used? Yes X No . I17yes, specify the types of explosive(s) and
describe what precaution(s) will be used to prevent physical hazard to persons or neighboring property
from flying rocks or excessive air blasts or ground vibrations. Depending on the mine's location to nearby
structures, more detailed technical information may be required on the blasting program (such as a third -
party blasting study). Locale the nearest offvile occupied struclure(ti) to the proposed excavation(.) on the
mine map and indicate ils approximate distance to the proposed excavation.

Ensign Bickford or comparable nonel blast initiation system is used to inadvertent blast initiation especially
during possible thunderstorms. An electronic initiation system may be substituted liar the nonel system if it
is deei-ned abetter overall system. Weather conditions are monitored continuously before, during, and after
loading of each shot to insure that the shot will not be initiated under adverse weather conditions that might
cause blast emissions to drift in an unacceptable direction or might prevent proper venting ofthe blast wave
away from adjoining properties. ANFO premixed powder is used in dry holes. A cap -sensitive high
explosive emulsion is used for wet holes and initiation of the ANFO.
Since blasting is an integral part of this operation, each blast is monitored with a seismograph to insure that
peak particle velocities and peak over pressures are within the limits established by local, state, and federal
authorities. Hanson works closely with consultants (often Vibratech) to monitor and review each blast and
seismographic recording. Along with the seismograph results, fragmentation and flyrock conditions are
constantly monitored, and the blasting program, including direction of' blasting, hole size and pattern,
stemming, etc. are adjusted as needed to insure best and safest results.
I L. tWllll fuel tall,
solvents, or other chemical reagents be stored on -site. Yes X No
Ifyes, describe these materials, how they will he stored and method of containment In case of p ll. Indicate
the location(s) of all storage.fucilitie.s on the mine map(.,).
Fuel tanks are enclosed in an above -ground steel secondary containment. All other oils, greases, and fluids
are also stored in secondary containment. Used oil is collected from equipment and picked up for offsite
recycling by properly certified contractors. Empty oil and grease barrels are returned to the supplier or
cleaned and placed into the metal scrap bin for offsite recycling. An approved dealer handles solvents. A11
employees are trained on a regular basis in the proper handling of petroleum products, managing and
cleaning of spills, and proper disposal of rags, absorbent materials, and any contaminated soils.
D. RECLAMATION PLAN
Describe your intended plan for the final reclamation and subsequent use of all affected lands and indicate
the sequence and general methods to be used in reclaiming this land. This must include the method of
reclamation of settling ponds and/or sediment control basins and the method of'restoration or establishment
of any permanent drainage channels to a condition minimizing erosion, siltation and other pollution. This
information must he illustrated on a reclamation map and must correspond directly ~with the information
provided on the mine map(s). In addition, design information, including typical cross -sections, of any
permanent channels to he constructed as part gflhe reclamation plan and the location(s) of all permanent
channels must he indicated on the reclamation map.
The mine excavations have been allowed to till to a normal level by groundwater and stormwater runoff
from adjoining areas since the mining operations have been tentatively completed. The resulting deep water
lake may be used for recreation, and potentially as a fresh water supply. The plant sites, stockpile areas, and
overburden disposal areas will be graded and seeded with grasses suitable for establishment of grasslands
and wildlife areas. irocess and pit water settling ponds wili be filled and similarly reclaimed to grasslands
unless they are a part of the overall site drainage and reclamation plan.
See attached reclamation drawings for specific details.
2. Is an excavated or impounded body of water to be left as a part of the reclamation`? Yes X No
ff yes, illustrate the location of the hody(s) gf water on the reclamation map and provide a ,scaled
cross-section(,) through the proposed hody(s) of water. The minimum water depth must be at least 4 feet,
measured from the normal low water table elevation, unless information is provided to indicate that a more
shallow water body will be productive and beneficial at this site. Will the body(s) of water be stocked with
fish? Yes No X If yes, specify species.

It is Hanson's intent to convert the quarry into a fresh water lake upon cessation of' mining activities. In
addition, the fresh water pond , as shown on the attached drawings, will remain. A large percentage of the
mining area will be left as impounded water. In some areas, overburden will be backfilled to an elevation
several feet above the water table, and seeded according to schedule.
See attached drawings for specific details and cross sections.
3. Describe provisions for safety to persons and to adjoining property in all completed excavations in rock
including what kind of permanent barricade will be left. Acceptable permanent barricades are appropriate
fencing, large boulders placed end -to -end, etc. Construction details and locations of' all permanent
barricades must be shown on the reclamation map,
As a safety precaution, a 20-116ot wide safety bench will be left at the rock/unconsolidated soil interface. A
permanent fence will be erected around the completed quarries to prevent unauthorized entry, and danger
signs will be posted at regular intervals along the fence to warn folks of the open pits. Large boulders placed
end -to -end may be placed around all excavations in lieu of fencing.
4. Indicate the method(s) of reclamation of overburden, refuse, spoil banks or other such on -site mine waste
areas, including specifications for benching and sloping. Final cross -sections and locations,for such areas
must he provided on the reclamation map.
As overburden is placed in designated areas, it is spread and compacted by dozer and haul units. Slopes in
waste areas will be graded 2:1 or flatter and vegetated as soon as possible to prevent erosion. Erosion control
measures and runoff conveyances will be established as the wastepile develops and then maintained
throughout the process until final reclamation is achieved. Drainage on top ofthe waste areas will be
established to prevent pooling and stagnation of'water and to control runoff: Final reclamation of waste areas
Will include final top and slope dressing as required followed by seeding in accordance with the attached
revegetation plan.
See attached drawings I -or specific detail.
5. a. Describe reclamation of processing facilities, stockpile areas, and on -site roadways.
Reclamation in these areas will occur as follows. First, the product stockpiles will be sold down. Then the
processing plants will be dismantled and removed from the site. Any remainini; piles. waste piles, and
areas graded for plant layout and operation (including ramps to the primary stations) will be graded 2:1
maximum slope but generally 3:1 or flatter. Finally, these areas will be scarified and seeded according to
the revegetation plan. Any site access roads not utilized in the end use development plan will be treated in
the same manner.
Any erosion control structures in these areas to be incorporated into the end use development of the site
will be cleaned out and left in good working condition.
b. Will any on -site roadways be left as part of the reclamation? Yes X No . Ifyes,
identify such roads+Jays on the reclamation map and provide details on permanent ditch line stabilization.
Main paved roads into the existing stone processing area will remain for access and future development
purposes. The road through the existing plant site to the former plant area will remain and will be graded,
including side drainage ditches, and stabilized with rock.
6. Describe the method of control of contaminants and disposal of scrap metal, junk machinery, cables, or other
such waste products of mining. (Note definition of refuse in The Mining Act of 1971). No off -site
generated waste shall be disposed of on the mine site without prior written approval from the NC
Department of Environment and Natural Resources, Land Quality Section and either the Division of

for the site, a copy of said permit must be attached to this application. All lemporary and permanent
refuse disposal areas must be clearly delineated on the mine maps) and reclamation map, along with a list
of items to he disposed in said areas.
As previously approved, temporary scrap and used equipment storage areas have been developed at this site.
The scrap material and used equipment which accumulate as a result of mining and processing activities are
stored in these areas until sold to an independent recycling contractor. No process waste products other than
inert fines are disposed of at this site.
A scrap bin is maintained on site for disposal by recycling of small metal scrap. Tires are recycled through
the various tire suppliers.
7. Describe your plan for revegetation or other surface treatment of the affected areas. This plan must
include recommendations for year-round seeding,, including the time of seeding and the amount and type
of seed, fertilizer, lime and mulch per acre. The recommendations must include general seeding

NARRATIVE
The calculations attached are for a modification and addition of two additional overburden and tailings
stockpile areas. These areas were not previously depicted in the 2008 modification and renewal
application packet. This modifications are in preparation of future pit expansions and plant relocations
within the site. The revisions and modifications now shown are as follows:
Enlargement of Existing Tailings Pile: The existing tailings disposal area is located immediately to the
northeast of the settling ponds on the mine site. This area is proposed to be expanded in size to the east
of the current area (approximately double in size). Drainage from this area will continue to drain either
back into the settling ponds or to the Southern Overburden/Tailings Disposal Area described below and
eventually through both Water Retention Ponds #1 and #2 as depicted on the mine drawings.
Southern Overburden/Tailings Disposal Area: Fill is proposed in an existing low area south of the mining
area so the ground surface is flush with the present stockpile area and to create a tailings/overburden pile
south of the existing low area and an overburden pile at the northeast corner of the site will also be
constructed.
A pipe will be installed to carry runoff from the area south of the existing settling cells across the low area
and under the south haul road, discharging near the existing Water Retention Pond #2. A ditch will be
constructed between the haul road at the south edge of the mining area and the proposed fill to convey
runoff from the existing stockpile area and plant process water around the north end of the proposed fill
to a second proposed pipe under the south haul road discharging just north of the first pipe.
The proposed fill in the existing low area will be constructed in two phases:
• Phase 1: located north of the route of the proposed pipe across the low area
• Phase 2: beginning at the east end of that pipe and progressing west as the pipe is installed
and extended
A rock dam will be constructed at the existing pipe under the south haul road to treat runoff reaching that
point during the fill operation. Due to the short nature of the fill activity and the existence of two
detention ponds in series downgradient of this discharge, a skimmer basin was determined to be an
unfeasible effort for this location. The existing pipe will be abandoned upon installation of the two
proposed pipes. This location has been investigated by representatives of the U. S. Army Corps of
Engineers and the NCDENR Division of Water Resources and it has been determined that the proposed
area has no jurisdictional waters or wetlands present.
Two sediment basins will be installed prior to construction of the tailings overburden pile to treat runoff
from that area. Diversion ditch/berms will be utilized around the toe of the pile to direct runoff to the
basins.
North East Overburden Area: A sediment basin and diversion ditch/berm will be constructed to treat
runoff from the overburden pile at the northeast corner of the site. A new haul road will be constructed to
access this area. The new haul road crosses an existing drainage discharge along the eastern property
edge. That location has been investigated by representatives of the U. S. Army Corps of Engineers and the
NCDENR Division of Water Resources and it has been determined that the proposed haul road will not
impact the existing stream to the southwest of the proposed disposal area. However, a roadside berm and
sediment screening device has been detailed to filter any stormwater discharge from the haul road to the
stream.

Tyros,
t apologim for my late response. '1n regards to our site viol on August 4, 2014. Upon review of the area (as identified on maps
supplied to me), it was determined that the area in question is not ajurisdictimwl wetland regulated under section 404 of the clean
water act, and therefore would not require my department of the army permitting for activities undertaken in that area. Please let me
know if you need anything else.
