ACCESS TO PUBLIC RECORDS
August 20, 2010
The North Carolina Public Records Act provides that any person may review public
records under reasonable conditions of volume and time frame except under conditions
pursuant to the Privacy Act or other exclusions covered by the Public Records Act.
Public records are broadly defined as all materials (including e-mail) made or received
pursuant to law or ordinance in connection with the transaction of public business to
include paper records, video or audio records, data processing records, photographs, and
physical objects.
Due to the large public demand at the central and regional offices for access to public files,
administrative assistance with copying is unavailable to the customer.* The customer is
encouraged to make an appointment for file review with the appropriate agency
representative. If a customer does not have an appointment, it is possible that they will not
be able to be accommodated at that particular time and they will be requested to make an
appointment. However, every effort will be made to accommodate the walk-in public if
sufficient staff and time permit.
For security reasons, customers viewing central and regional office files may not take
briefcases, bags, totes, etc. into the file review area.
Citizens making copies of file material are charged as follows;
25 or less copies free
More than 25 copies 2.5 cents per page (for ENTIRE amount
copied)
Payment is due at the time of copying. Payment can be made by check, money order, or
cash. Payment is to be made in the administrative offices to the central or regional office
cashier or customer service representative: If the customer does not have payment readily
available, they can be invoiced for the amount due. Payment is due upon receipt of the

Janet,
I believe that both of those quarries (Crabtree and Raleigh) have air permits. The best people to speak to about those
permits would be in the Division of Air Quality. Because of the green square move going on right now, I would suggest
contacting the Raleigh Regional office for any questions or to look at anything in their files. You could call David Miller at

TirAe In Time Out

Honorable Mayor Charles Meeker
Members, Raleigh City Council
222 W. Hargett St.
Raleigh, NC 276o1
18 January 2011
Dear Sirs;
Along with most of our neighbors, we are greatly concerned about the proposed expansion of the
Hanson Quarry on Crabtree Creek near our home in Oak Park. We have lived at this address
since 1992, and have been grateful to the City of Raleigh (COR) for its role in blocking damaging
quarry expansions. PIease add these comments to the public record for the current rezoning
proposal related to this nonconforming, heavy industrial use.
A number of key issues remain inadequately addressed related to the current proposal. No
action'' should be taken until adequate information is provided and analyzed, and circulated to
citizens who are likely to be negatively affected, and factored into Cows decision. Please ensure
that no premature rezoning action is taken related to this tract.
1) The Potential Benefits of Flood Control Should Not be Overstated
The potential for benefits for COR and its citizens associated with prospective flood control
operations at the pit are being dramatically overstated. We suspect that.neithcr the
considerable costs nor the permitting actions required for a major stormwater intervention by
county, state and federal agencies in this part of Crabtree Creek will ever develop. It is likely
that a long and expensive re -analysis would be required under state and federal environmental
policy law (given the age of the current evaluations and the vast development and other changes
that have occurred in the watershed) before permitting could occur.
Certainly, the project could not be built with the operating quarry and its core elements in their
current configurations, and the time course and operations of such a system are highly
speculative, Tt remain-, an nnen giiestinn as to hnw n manapp.ment system might nperate� what
the benefits might be at various flood levels, and whether those benefits would be worth the
huge costs.
We are not Bairn in fart that anv filrthPr gtriictr3ral intPr•vPntinn is wi.cP'in this watPr.chPd aivan
the damage to streamflow and aquatic amenities that could result from the installation of
needed weirs, logstops, dams and other such flood control structures. No new flood control
structures have been built in'this region (and few any'Aere) since the late ig8os..Such
wiStructures are enrpmn.rPrl froti:e VaRaciand n+lisr mink str"'Arnqnn+hpinXilltg migen -, g}
Certainly, no advantage should be attributed along these lines unless and until compelling
evidence exists that such benefits are likely ever to be realized. Note that the company also

Mayor Charles Meeker
18 January 2ozi
Page 2
would get benefits from "handing off' the current quarry pit for this purpose, rather than
incurring the costs associated with reclamation and decommissioning.
2) The Potential Benefits to the Greenway and Natural Areas Should Not be Overstated
All key conservation lands owned by Hanson at'the Duraleigh site should be addressed clearly
and appropriately (and be -- in fact --- conserved), including protection through conservation
easements or fee -simple dedications to the COR, or to some other public or private conservation
body, or by some other legally accountable land -use restriction.
Those lands should include: i) all lands south of Crabtree Creek, excluding — temporarily —only
the minimum area required for current -level stormwater ,management operations; 2) a
permanent passage easement for the greenway on suitable terrain, and 3) all higher quality
natural areas owned by the company near Crabtree Creek (including those located on both sides
of Crabtree Creek east of the Duraleigh Road bridge, as well as that already identified on the
south side of the creek near the western edge of the property). Many of these areas contain
high -value natural hardwood forest and mountain laurel thickets, with other unusual plants,
similar to the area being proposed as a natural area to the west:
The perceived benefit — cited by some — of facilitated greenway passage is especially ironic, since
the full pathway required by such an extension is NOT included in the pending proposal. The
connecting section east of Duraleigh Road, owned by the company, is currently excluded.
Moreover, it is not clear that the proposed route is even buildable — much less the preferred
route — given the steep topography in the natural areas'through which it would have to pass, and
the current operations of a state -permitted stormwater management works in close proximity to
the route. Nor is it not clear that the state would allow such a passage while that stormwater
operation is in place, or that such passage would be safe and reasonable, given overhead
operations crossing the creek.
In addition, alternative routines already exist, are preferred, and have already been invested in
by COR for the key link to Umstead Park. A north -side route might well be considered, as well,
if the current grinding operations were moved to the north, especially since the State of North
Carolina owns a significant portion of such a potential greenway passage through�the site. We
believe that the current lease for those state lands could be amended to allow greenway passage
as a public use of public lands (depending, of course, on flood management decisions).
As confirmed greenway "junkies" we are all for completion of the greenway connection to
Umstead Park — but on a reasonable and prudent route, and not as a tradeoff for other
environmental and social ills. It would be sad indeed fora new greenway route to actually
induce environmental damage!

Mayor Charles Meeker
18 January 2011

3) Ongoing Impacts and the Implications of a No Action Alternative
Quarry representatives have asserted repeatedly at meetings in September and December that
the status quo/no-action alternative (i.e. operations in the current footprint of the operation,
with the current mine permit and without rezoning) would allow continued mining at this site
for at least 25 to 3o years.
The evidence upon which this assertion was based (Le. geological resource information, the
resource extraction plan, and its economic context) needs to be provided and analyzed so that
neighbors and others potentially affected can understand its implications. It is impossible to
compare the proposed rezoning action to the no -action alternative without adequate
information.
Make no mistake: Impacts of current operations on neighbors are considerable, including
blasting noise, groundshock-based damage to foundations, noise from grinding and processing
operations, heavy -truck traffic, and problems with spilled gravel on public roadways and
associated damage to windshields, among others. Mitigation of these problems should be a
core issue in considering any request for expanded or extended operations at this site, including
the establishment of a citizen damage mitigation program, with independent, third -party
arbitration, to address both existing and expected new foundation damage and other property
degradation.
Many neighbors are assuming that a "no expansion" vote would cause operations to cease by
some date certain, but we have seen nothing to suggest that is true, and no such date has been
offered as far as we know.
4) omitted Elements
The current proposal is silent on several key issues, some addressed at Ieast in part in earlier
versions of the quarry mitigation package, which should be expressly included in any proposal
now before it is approved.
Particularly notable to Oak Park residents is the omission of any commitment rel4ted to the .
quarry -owned lands that immediately back up to Oak Park Subdivision, which were proposed to
be donated to the COR for greenspace and greenway passage. As immediate neighbors to this
land, we and our neighbors strongly support action to`conserve these lands (and similar lands
on the south side of the creek) as part of any potentially approvable rezoning package.
Second, the current grinding operations are exceedingly troubling to neighbors. While there
was discussion at the December meeting about beginning a planning exercise to consider
moving the processing operation, no commitment has been made to mitigate current and future

Mayor Charles Meeker
18 January 2011
Page 4
grinding noise impacts. No action should be taken by the COR that will perpetuate rock
processing operations unless and until current problems with the facility are solved.
Similarly, new analyses are just now underway to evaluate the vulnerability of residential
structures to ground shock waves. Analyses should be conducted to verify that structures under
maximum risk are adequately protected before any rezoning action is allowed. Any rezoning
action should be predicated upon a plan to minimize impacts of blasting and rock processing
operations on neighbors, perhaps to include relocation of grinding operations to an interior site
shielded by proposed soil berms, and to establish a program to mitigate ground shock damage to
neighbors, including Oak Park residents. If Hanson expects to be our neighbor for another fifty
years, they should do what they have done elsewhere, and establish a program to fairly identify
and address foundation damage that has resulted from quarry operations.
Fourth, a management plan adequate to reduce aggravating and nuisance gravel spills on
Duraleigh Road must be developed and fully implemented. We are simply fed up with cracked
windshields.
5) Legal Instruments to Establish Purported Benefits
Company officials -- and others — have claimed environmental and community benefits
associated with the proposed mine expansion, including: a promise not to mine on the south
side of Crabtree Creek, a t)romise to avoid a natural area on the western side of the tract,
facilitated passage of the greenway through quarry property, and the prospect of stormwater
controls in the Crabtree Creek Basin, among others.
These purported benefits should play no role in consideration of this proposal unless and until
binding legal instruments are identified and stipulated that would guarantee that those benefits
would be achieved. Each and every one of these promises should be undergirded by a legally
binding instrument, or discounted in the political debate. Any rezoning decision should include
enforceable conditions that obligate the company to execute those legally binding instruments
before any work is initiated.
6) Interactions with State Mining Act Permittin
Finally, the COR should immediately request, by formal action, that the NC Department of
Environment and Natural Resources hold in abeyance any and all actions related to any new or
amended permit for this facility under the NC Mining Act until these issues are addressed.
Recall that DENR went ahead — unilaterally — last time around, issuing the permit for the south
side quarry before environmental and socioeconomic impacts were adequately addressed. The
COR should also request that the NC Department of Administration work with DENR to make a

finding that the proposed permit action constitutes a major action for purposes of
environmental impact review under the State Environmental Policy Act, so that no -action and
other alternatives can be fully evaluated, from environmental, social and economic perspectives.
Please recognize that serious impacts on many Raleigh citizens are associated with any decision
you make, and that careful information gathering and analysis could help drive an improvement
in the status quo. Many assertions made by the company remain unsubstantiated or
unsupported by formal commitments. The COR should stand its ground and withhold any
rezoning until adequate information is provided by Hanson, and all implications of proposed
activities can be evaluated and' optimized, so that appropriately protective conditions can be
designed,
Thanks in advance for your help with this important matter!

Thanks for Jeanette's report; I spoke with her on Friday and confirmed that she did not observe any concerns regarding
potential off -site damage. The recommendations she made regarding on -site erosion appear consistent with routine
operation of a site like the subject quarry. I consulted with Danny Smith regarding the reported violations and their
response to this inquiry, and he confirmed that the only problems cited in recent years are the basin failure from a few
years ago, and a discharge from the same basin this past fall that was triggered by a pump system malfunction (it is my
understanding that this incident was reported promptly, corrected, and the basin did not fail; no further DWQ action was
necessary). Danny also was not aware of the current inquiry. I also spoke with Mr, Donald Washington for clarification
regarding the details of his inquiry. He described himself as not an opponent of the quarry, and that his information
regarding violations came from a friend of his that worked for the mine operator. Further, he confirmed that his concern
relates to mine screenings stockpiled about 3 years ago near his property at the north end of the quarry site. He noted
that he used to walk his dog back then on that portion of the site, and observed that after periods of heavy rainfall, the
material was very soft and wet, and he would sink significantly into the material on the slopes. He is concerned that the
company may not have tested the material for stability or properly engineered its placement such that the potential for
slope failure and subsequent overflow of downstream proective measures, resulting in ultimate damage to Crabtree Creek
is avoided. He did not note any current or recent problems or issues. It appears that the primary reason for his inquiry
was to voice his opposition to the proposed quarry expansion.
In light of this information, and since the quarry is due for a routine inspection anyway, Karyn and I are planning to
schedule the inspection as soon as possible, and we will ensure that the area related to Mr. Washington's concern is
inspected cioseiy. We wiii let everyone involved know what we rind, and we will follow-up with Mr. Washington. The
timing of this email response is intended to inform the appropriate government staff on our end, and to provide you with
information to address this matter if Mr. Washington's inquiry becomes an issue in the city's deliberations this week.

Figure 1: Overview of Hanson Quarry on Duraleigh Road

On Monday, January 10, 2011, an inspection of tile Hanson Quarry located on Duraleigh
Road was performed by Jeanette Powell, Stormwater Inspections Supervisor. The
inspection was in response to a complaint that eroded material was entering Crabtree
Creek. The facility straddles Crabtree Creek with the quarry pit, scale house,
maintenance facility, production area and product holding areas being located on the
north side of the creek. The site oil the south side of the creek contains treatment areas
for the collected runoff from all active portions of the facility. The water is treated for
reuse in processing activities or discharge. All areas of the facility are self -inspected by
Hanson staff -at a minimum of once per week. The facility is regulated by state law and
holds a state mining permit, an NPDES stormwater permit and an air quality permit. An
aerial overview of the facility is provided in Figure 1.
The product storage and scale house areas drain directly into the pit, as does the
maintenance shop area. There is a constructed berm along the north side of Crabtree
Creek in the production area that prevents runoff from entering the creek. The
production area drains to Settling Basin 1 (SBI), which consists of a forebay and main
basin area (see Figure 2). Dual redundant float activated pumps transfer collected water
from SB 1 to the pit. Collected water is inspected in the pit and, if determined to be clean
and not needed for process water, it is discharged to Crabtree Creek. A manually
activated bypass valve must be opened for any discharge to occur.
Figure 2: Settling Basin .l and Berm Along Crabtree Creek
If additional treatment or process -water storage is needed, the water is pumped across
Crabtree Creek via aerial pipes to a lift station and then to Settling Basin 2 (SB2).
Sedimentary material from SB2 is routinely removed to provide adequate storage/settling
capacity in S132. The removed material is placed adjacent to SB2 to dewater, with runoff
wine back into 5132. Once the material is dewat:ered_ it is placed in a stockpile to await

further handling (see Figure 3). The stockpile also drains back to SB2. From S132, water
goes to Settling Basin 3 (SB3) for additional treatment and use as process water (see
Figure 4).
Figure 3: Settling Basin 2 and Stockpile Areas
Figure 4: Settling Basin 3
The only material stored in the stockpiles on the south side of Crabtree Creek is the
settled out material that accumulates in the lift station pit, SB1, SB2 and S133. The

is not stabilized and exhibits signs of active erosion. The access road in the vicinity of

On Monday, January 10, 2011, an inspection of the Hanson Quarry located on Duraleigh
Road was performed by Jeanette Powell, Stormwater Inspections Supervisor. The
inspection was in response to a complaint that eroded material was entering Crabtree

aerial overview of the facility is provided in Figure 1.
The product storage and scale house areas drain directly into the pit, as does the
maintenance shop area. There is a constructed berm along the north side of Crabtree
Creek in the production area that prevents runoff from entering the creek. The
production area drains to Settling Basin I (SB1), which consists of a forebay and main
basin area (see Figure 2). Dual redundant float activated pumps transfer collected water
from SB 1 to the pit. Collected water is inspected in the pit and, if determined to be clean

The only material stored in the stockpiles on the south side of Crabtree Creek is the
settled out material that accumulates in the lift station pit, SBI, SB2 and SB3. The
inactive face of the stockpile area is stabilized with vegetation. The active working face
is not stabilized and exhibits signs of active erosion. The access road in the.vicinity of
SB2 also has signs of active erosion. Rock check dams are installed and maintained, and
the entire area drains into SB2. When the pit around the lift station is cleaned out, the
material is temporarily placed adjacent to the lift station pit to dewater prior to being
moved to the main stockpile area. The dewatering runoff drains into the lift station pit.
Temporary sediment control measures are used to further contain the dewatering material
from the lift station pit. At the time of the inspection, hay bales were being utilized (see
Figure 5). Alternative sediment control measures were recommended, including silt
fence or reusable "eels".

Re: Crabtree Quarry
Mining Permit No. 92-03
Wake County
Neuse River Basin
Dear Mr. Edgerton:
Michael F. Easley, Governor
William G. Ross Jr., Secretary
This is to acknowledge receipt of your letter dated June 13, 2002 regarding
Hanson Aggregates East's Crabtree Quarry. In order to property address the questions
listed in your June 13 letter, I have provided my individual responses directly after each
corresponding question. Furthermore, this office acknowledges that "Hanson" is used
interchangeably with Nello L. Teer Company and "the property south of Crabtree
Creek" is meant to include only that property which has been within the mining permit
boundary since the date this mining operation was permitted. Lastly, please note that
these responses are based on defined terms as they are used in the North Carolina
Mining Act and regulations administered by DENR. This letter is not to be construed to
interpret other laws or ordinances.
1. When was the property on the south. side of Crabtree Creek first put under a
mining permit?
RESPONSE: The property on the south side of Crabtree Creek was addressed
in the original application dated June 15, 1972 and approved as part of the mining
permit area when Mining Permit No. 92-03 was issued on June 20, 1972. This area
has remained under the mining permit since the permit was originally issued.

2. Has the property on the south side of Crabtree Creek been inspected by
DENR for compliance with Mining Act rules and regulations since shortly after the
issuance of the first mine permit, and does DENR continue to inspect such grope y
under the Mining Act?
RESPONSE: Yes. Mine inspection reports have been completed for each
inspection conducted by staff of the Raleigh Regional Office and are available for
review as public records upon request.
3. Did the first mining permit issued to Hanson (then Nello L. Teer Company)
reflect a process water pond on the south side of Crabtree Creek?
RESPONSE: Y,:,s. The revegetation plan prepared by Mr. Roy Womble,
Chairman of the Wake Soil and Water Conservation District dated June 13, 1972 as
part of the original application for this mine site addressed these process water ponds
as "settling ponds". As such, these ponds were approved and covered by the mining
permit when it was issued in 1972.
4. Do the process water ponds south of Crabtree Creek receive process water
from the portion of the mining operation north of Crabtree Creek?
RESPONSE: Yes. This is supported by the approved mine maps and mine
inspectionreports, which can be found in the mine file for this site.
5. Do the following activities on the property south of Crabtree Creek constitute
"mining" as that term is used in the Mining Act and regulations administered by DENR:
YES NO
(l) Grading for and construction of process
water ponds X
(ii) Grading for and construction of soil and
erosion control structures X
(iii) Deposit of process water from mining north
of Crabtree Creek onto property south of
Crabtree Creek X
(iv) Grading for and construction of berms X

Mr. Edgerton
Page 3
(v) Grading and construction of roads X
(vi) Removal of dirt or overburden by grading or
otherwise to expose mineral deposits X
(vii) Stockpiling of materials
X
(viii) Traversing the property south of Crabtree Creek
with equipment for purposes of removing
sediment from the process water ponds,
stockpiling materials or removing materials X
(ix) Removal of sediment from a process water
pond and
(a) redepositing it on site, whether
north or south of Crabtree Creek X
(b) removing such material from site X
(x) Grubbing of tree stumps.
X
RESPONSE: All of the land disturbing activities noted above in items 5(i) through
(x) are within the mining permit boundary and under the jurisdiction of the NC Mining
Act and associated regulations. Thus, all of these activities are "mining" as defined by
one or more of the definitions found under G.S. 74-49(7) of the NC Mining Act of 1971.
U. rriII 11 c� aLc7� a�.uvILI I question c 1J auvvc W1 - 1^1J. "I vuyII s
records (including inspections) or knowledge, were performed on the south side?
RESPONSE: The documents in the mine permit file are public records and can
be viewed by the public during normal business hours. These documents speak for
themselves. I do not have enough familiarity with this particular site, through review of
the file or onsite inspections, to verify that these activities have occurred. I can only
state that these land disturbing activities, if conducted within the mining permit
boundary, are subject to the conditions of Mining Permit No. 92-03.

Mr. Edgerton
Page 4
7. Does the property south of Crabtree Creek constitute a part of the mine that
DENR has permitted as the Crabtree Quarry, as the term mine is'used in the Mining Act
and regulations administered by DENR?
RESPONSE: The property south of Crabtree Creek is within the mining permit
boundary covered by Mining Permit No. 92-03. The ongoing use of the settling ponds
and the stabilization of the overburden pile on the south side of Crabtree Creek were
approved when then mining permit was originally issued on June 20, 1972. These were
the only mining activities that were approved on the south side of the creek until the
min;nn permit modification was approved on July 13, 1992 to include additional mining
activities south of the creek.
NOTE: The responses below to questions 8, 9 and 10 of your June 13, 2002
I, -,Lei reln}o cnorifirally to my March 9n, 1992 letter to you (and other documents issued
IGLIGI ne GILL spell �v..w..J J
by DENR from time to time referring to "the expansion of mining operations to the south
side of Crabtree Creek"):
o timer„-nern+;^nc heinrr rnnr�l Irtorl nn the south side of Crabtree Creek that
U. YYGIG V}J�.aauviw ti v
constituted mining as that term is used in the Mining Act and the regulations
administered by DENR in 1971 when the Mining Act became effective?
RESPONSE: Yes. The installation and use of the settling ponds located on the
south side of the creek for washing stone at the plant site on the north side of the creek
is considered "mining" by this office as defined by G.S. 74-49(7)(c). The removal of
overburden and subsequent disposal of such on the south side of the creek is also
considered "mining" by this office as defined by G.S. 74-49(7)(a) and (b)
9. Are the activities that Hanson has engaged in on the south side of Crabtree
Creek since the Mining Act became effective activities that constitute mining as that
term is used in the Mining Act and the regulations administered by DENR?
RESPONSE: Yes. Please see previous responses.
10. Could you please clarify what the Department meant when it referred to
"expansion of mining operations to the south side of Crabtree Creek ..." Did the
Department by that phrase intend to state that mining activity had not previously been
conducted south of Crabtree Creek and was being expanded to it, or rather did it intend
to say that the existing permit for mining south of the creek had been modified?

Mr. Edgerton
Page 5
RESPONSE: Although the property south of Crabtree Creek had been within the
mining permit boundary since the mining permit was first issued for this site, the only
mining activities that were approved on the south side of the creek were the installation
and maintenance of the settling ponds, the construction and stabilization of the
overburden pile, the associated access roads and the required erosion and
sedimentation control measures. No other land disturbing activities were allowed to
commence on the south side of the creek until the mining permit and its associated
approved mining plan were modified by the Department. Thus, all areas within the
mining permit boundary on the south side of the creek, with the exception of the
approved mining activities noted above, were to be maintained as buffer land. When
the mining permit modification request was made on January 16, 1992, the mining
plans indicated that the remainder of the permitted area on the south side of the creek
would be affected by mining activities. This office considered this move of the bulk of
the mining related activities from the north side of the creek to the south side of the
creek to be an expansion of the overall mining operation at this site.
Thank you for yoor-le ter. If you should have any questions on the above, please

RE: Crabtree Quarry
Dean Mr, Edgerton:
As you know the Surface Mining Permit for Crabtree11�'ualiv rei rs to tlLe
mining activities to the south side of Crabtree Creek" and you have askcd us what `expansion"
means in th%t context_
Please be advised that neither DFNR nor the Land protection Division gets involved in
zonin or land use issues that arise at the city or county level, and the particular words %ve use in
our permits are therefore trot used in any zoning sense or Nvith reference to any zoning issue. As
you know, previous mining permits included property and mining activities south of Crabtree
Creek and the reference to expansion ' to the south slat oI LIaULI ce 'Creek 1s not 1116 11--- -
mean that there has been an expansion of mining in any zoning sense, but rather simply to reflect
that additional soil and erosion structures or other activities have been added on the south side of
Crabtree Creels that were not on a previous mine permit for that area.
I hope that clarifies the language ore the permit.
Very truly yours;

Debate over quarry might go to court
The quarry's owner is appealing an order to stop hauling dirt.
By SARAH LINDENFELD HALL, Staff Writer
Tuesday, May 28, 2002 1:35AM EDT
RALEIGH - For at least two decades, a fight has simmered between the deep northwest Raleigh quarry that wants
to expand across Crabtree Creek, the city that says it can't and the neighbors who say the rock -blasting makes
their houses shake regularly.
It could be about to boil over -- and end up in court.
The latest skirmish began with truckloads of dirt. In mid -April, the city told Hanson Aggregates Southeast, which
owns the more-than-50-year-old quarry on Duraleigh Road, to stop hauling dirt from the south side of Crabtree
Creek. A contractor building the Edwards Mill Road extension was using the dirt.
Larry Strickland, the city's zoning inspector supervisor, said the activity met the state's definition of mining, which
violates city zoning rules.
The hauling stopped, but Hanson appealed Strickland's order this month to the city's Board of Adjustment. At its
June 10 meeting, the board will schedule a special hearing to consider the appeal. It will take a four -fifths majority
to nvcrfi irn CfrinLel�nrl'c rinnicinn
The lawsuit the city and quarry have been Flirting with for years could finally happen if the board makes a decision
and it is appealed. And some residents, feeling jittery, are wondering what's next.
"I think the business of taking dirt out is the start of something really awful," said Mimi Miller, president of the Oak
Park Glen Forest Neighborhood Association.
The disagreement began decades ago.
Hanson maintains that it can expand its operation, which started before 1950 on the creek's north side, and mine
on the south side of the creek because it was there before the city limits extended to the property in 1973.
In April, the state renewed the quarry's 10-year permit, allowing the quarry to disturb 95 of its 261 acres, which are
on both sides of the creek. The permit allows mining on the creek's south side, but local zoning regulations
supersede what the state allows.
The city says the operation can't jump the creek, because that land is zoned residential, where quarries aren't
allowed. The quarry on the north side of the creek was grandfathered in when the city's jurisdiction was extended
there. In 1994, the City Council voted 5-3 to reaffirm the city's position that the quarry can't cross the creek after
neighbors asked the city to take the quarry to court.
Wayne Phears, a lawyer from Norcross, Ga., representing Hanson, said the quarry has told the city it would
I of 2 5/28/2002 i :3 1 PM

ncwsckwvcr.coni printcr-friendly story
welcome a suit to decide the issue. "We've been urging the city of Raleigh, if they think we're not a lawful use, to
go to court and shut it down," he said.
Phears said the quarry filed the appeal with the zoning board just to make sure the official record makes clear it
disagrees with the city's interpretation in case the issue ever does go to court.
City Attorney Thomas McCormick said that the city hasn't had any reason to sue the quarry because it hasn't
started mining on the south side of the creek. He said the city is taking the appeal seriously.
The quarry's future has been uncertain.
More than a decade ago, quarry officials offered the quarry as a gift to Wake County for flood control if the quarry
could mine the other side of the creek. Raleigh endorsed the flood -control plan, but said that did not mean the
quarry had a right to mine on the south side.
And in 1999, greenway advocates proposed building a park next to the quarry, with greenways that would connect
to Durham and Cary. The plan angered residents because the greenways group recognized the quarry as having
the right to mine a second quarry across the creek.
Meanwhile, nearby residents say they feel jolts and shakes from blasts at the quarry at least twice a week, and, in
the past, felt them daily, Population has increased in the area, which is down the road from Rex Hospital to the
south and Umstead State Park to the north.
"I don't think anything has changed in terms of the neighborhood position," said Jill Heaton, who lives in the Oak
Park neighborhood. "We find quarrying on the south of Crabtree Creek unacceptable, which has always been our
position."
Miller, the neighborhood association president, still remembers the first blast after she moved into her home 17
years ago.
"The first time it went off, I was home here," she said. "I thought we had an earthquake and ran out and no one
paid any attention. My neighbor said, 'It was the quarry."'

Hanson Aggregates is in receipt of a letter dated April 23, 2002, from Larry Strickland, Zoning
Inspections Supervisor for the City of Raleigh, in which he references a conversation with John
Holly of the Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources ("DENR" or "the
Department") regarding Hanson's activities on its property on the south side of Crabtree Creek.
A copy of Mr. Strickland's referenced letter is attached hereto as Exhibit "A". In light of that
discussion between Mr. Holly and Mr. Strickland, as well as Mr. Strickland's letter to us, we
would appreciate the Department providing some factual information for us to submit to the City
of Raleigh. As used herein, the property south of Crabtree Creek is meant to include only that
property which was a part of Hanson's mining permit prior to August of 1973. Hanson is used
interchangeably with Nello L. Teer Company herein.
We understand that your answers to the inquiries below are based on defined terms as they are
used in the North Carolina Mining Act and regulations administered thereunder by DENR and
You do not purport to interpret other laws or ordinances. Accordingly, the requested information
is as follows:
l . When was the property on the south side of Crabtree Creek first put under a
mining permit?
2. Has the property on the south side of Crabtree Creek been inspected by DENR for
compliance with Mining Act rules and regulations since shortly after the issuance of the first
mine permit, and does DENR continue to inspect such property under the Mining Act?

3. Did the first mining permit issued to Hanson (then Nello L. Teer Company)
reflect a process water pond on the south side of Crabtree Creek?
4. Do the process water ponds south of Crabtree Creek receive process water from
the portion of the mining operation north of Crabtree Creek?
5. Do the following activities on the property south of Crabtree Creek constitute
"mining" as that term is used in the Mining Act and regulations administered by DENR:
(1) Grading for and construction of process
water ponds
(ii) Grading for and construction of soil and
erosion control structures
(iii) Deposit of process water from mining north
of Crabtree Creek onto property south of
Crabtree Creek
(iv) Grading for and construction of berms
(v) Grading and construction of roads
(vi) Removal of dirt or overburden by grading or

since the Mining Act became effective activities that constitute mining as that term is used in the
Mining Act and the regulations administered by DENR?
10. Could you please clarify what the Department meant when it referred to
"expansion of mining operations to the south side of Crabtree Creek .. _" Did the Department by
that phrase intend to state that mining activity had not previously been conducted south of

On Tuesday April 16, 2002 I observed several large dump tucks entering and reciting
Residential 4 property located on the south side Crabtree Creek, west of Dumleigh Road
hereby know as the "south side'. As you know the City of Raleigh's zoning ordinanc-,
prohibits any mining or quarrying in the Residential 4 zoning district: On Thursday April
18. 2002 1 contacted you concerning the activity that I had observed. You advised that
soil was being removed by a contractor and used for the construction of Edwards Mill
Road.
In follow up to our conversation, I contacted Mr. Xoba Holly with the North Carolina
Depaitrrient of Environmental and Natural Resoumes. Based on my conversation with
Mr. Holly, I have concluded that the removal of dirt or borrow from the property on the
south side of Crabtree Creek is mining and thus prohibited in the Residential 4 zoning
district. Any activity other than the normal maintenance of the three basins located on
vie south side is an expansion of"a nonconforming use and is prohibited.
With this being the case, Hanson Aggregates Southeasl is hereby ordered to cease this
mining operation by not removing any dirt or other material from the property on the

Dear Mr. Edgerton:
The initial review has been completed on your request for
renor:.Tal of ning Hermit No. g?_03 anra for the evpans�Qn of m�n�ng
operations to the south side of Crabtree Creek at the Crabtree
Quarry in Wake County, The following additional information is
needed to complete our review:
1.) All buffer zones to be maintained between any land
disturbing activity and any adjoining property line or
waterway on both the north and south sides .of Crabtree
Creek must be clearly indicated on all mining maps.
Please Sped fir if *1-i •q.,e b'.:f f er zones are to remain
totally undisturbed or if they will be partially
disturbed for the installation of necessary erosion and
sedimentation control measures.
2.) Construction details are needed on the details sheet for
the "oversize rock" and "concrete'" barriers to be
utilized continuously as temporary highwall barriers
during active quarrying activities.
3.) The rip -rap lined channel detail must be revised to
clearly indicate that all such channels will be properly
undercut to allow for proper placement of rip -rap and
filter material to ensure their designed capacities are
maintained. It would be beneficial to have a channel
chart on the detail sheet to clearly outline the undercut
dimensions and the final, design dimensions of these type
channels.
4.) No detailed information has been provided regarding the
design and construction of the bridge proposed across
Crabtree Creek. If your company wishes to have this

5.) An outlet dissipator has not been provided for the outlet
end of the culvert under the temporary construction
entrance. Please provide its location on the mine plans
and submit the supporting calculations and details for
said dissipator.
6.) Items C.6.b. and D.3. of the application form indicate
that a 20 foot wide safety bench will be provided between
the top of rock and toe of the overburden slope.
However, Sheet EC-3 indicates that a 25 foot wide bench
will be provided. Please clarify this discrepancy
appropriately on the plans and in the application.
7.) What are the proposed final elevations of the visual
barrier berm proposed along Duraleigh Road on the south
side of the creek? Will it be of sufficient height to
adequately screen the operation from Duraleigh Road and
neighboring dwellings? Will trees be planted along the
outside slopes and along the top of said berm? Please
provide appropriate information to clearly.address this
issue.
8.) More detailed information is needed regarding your
company's blasting practices and procedures currently
employed on the north side of Crabtree Creek and those
that will be employed on the south side of the Creek.
Will current blasting -procedures need to be revised for
the south side pit area to ensure that blasting will be
within safe limits"so as not to damage the nearby sewer
outfall structure and neighboring offsite structures?
Where and at what distance is the nearest offsite
occupied structure to the north side pit arLd the proposed
south side pit? As this office has received several
blasting complaints over the past several years, a
detailed, technical report prepared by a third -party
blasting consultant is needed to properly address this
issue.

9.) As several housing developments are in the immediate
vicinity of this mining operation, this office feels that
several groundwater observation wells are needed at the
site, most specifically around the proposed southern pit
to detect any potential groundwater impacts that may
occur due to pit dewatering activities. Please provide
the locations of any existing and proposed monitoring
wells on the mine plans and how your company intends to
monitor them.
10.) The recommendations outlined in the attached February 26,
1992 memorandum from the N.C. Wildlife " Resources
Commission must be incorporated into the mining plans for
this project.
PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT THIS OFFICE'S REVIEW _CANNOT BE
COMPLETED UNT.IL ALL OF THE ITEMS LISTED A$OVE HAVE BEEN FULLY

SUBJECT: Mining Permit Renewal/Expansion, Nello Teer, Crabtree
Quarry, Mining Permit No. 92-03, Wake County
The Wildlife Resources Commission has completed a review of
the subject permit renewal. Biologists on our staff are familiar
with the habitat values of the project area. We are submitting
this correspondence in response to your request of January 23,
1992, for comments regarding impacts to fish and wildlife
resources in the area. Our comments are provided in accordance
with certain provisions of the Mining Act of 1971, G.S. 74-46
through 74-68 15 NCAC 5.
The wildlife Resources Commission has no objections to the
pit expansion and the renewal of this mining permit as delineated
by the maps provided. We would like to recommend the utilization
of plant species beneficial to wildlife for revegetation such as
switchgrass, orchard grass, Kobe lespedeza, bahia grass,
lovegrass, and shrub lespedeze. The local wildlife biologist will
be glad to assist Nello Teer Co. with revision of the
revegetation plan.
Also, Should it become necessary to construct the deSCribed
bridge across Crabtree Creek, a complete plan for the project
should be submitted for agency review so that impacts to wildlife
and fisheries can be properly addressed.
Thank you for the opportunity to review and comment on this
project.

Mining Permit Renewal Request for Hanson Aggregates Southeast
Crabtree Quarry — Permit No. 92-03
Wake County
April 10, 2002
Based on the information contained in the permit renewal application for Crabtree Ouarrv, my
comments and concerns are as follows: 1. Hanson Aggregates does not specify how much water is withdrawn
per day, yet their withdrawal is registered under NCGS 143-215.221-1, number 0340-0011 for 500,000 to
600,000 gallons per day; 2. Individual homeowner wells within 500 feet are not identified on their maps; and
3. According to their description under C.3.c. shallow wells in the area (they exist`?) would not be affected
because the pit rests on a former topographic high and the shallow materials inhibit ground water migration.
Topographic highs usually are the recharge areas for shallow and deep wells in the Piedmont, and silt and
clays may inhibit ground water migration, but sands do not. Since, by their own records they withdraw at
least 500 nnn LY,, llnnc nf-r tincr t-lancnn chni;lrl Inmate nnv linmenwnet ;xnellc within rMfi fret 'Thairne— PVn�nainn
is on the south side of Crabtree Creek so it is possible for homeowners with wells on that side, that were once
protected by a hydrologic boundary (Crabtree Creek), to now be affected.

DATE. 16 April 2002
SUBJECT: Mining Permit Renewal Request for Hanson Aggregates Southeast, Crabtree
Quarry - Permit No. 92-03, Wake County, North Carolina
Biologists with the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission have: reviewed the
subject permit renewal, and we are familiar with the habitat values of the area. Our comments
are provided in accordance with provisions of the Mining Act of 1971 (as amended, 1982)(C.S.
74-76 through 74-68 15 NCAC 5).
Hanson Aggregates East is requesting a renewal of their permit for mining granite on a
261-acre site located near William B. LJmstead State Park. Crabtree Creek, Neuse River basin,
runs through the site, and Richland Creek (st tributary of Crabtree Creek) borders the site.
Several listed species have been found to exist in Crabtree Creek including the federal species of
concern and state tiv-eatened Atlantic pigtoe (Furconaia masorat), the federal species of concern
and significantly rare pinewoods shiner (Lythrurus matutinus), the state threatened squawfoot
(Strophiius undulatus) and triangle floater (Alasmidonta undulata), and the significantly rare
notched rainbow (Villosa constricra). In addition, there are spawning runs of blueback herring
(Alosa acstivalis), hickory shad (Alosa medioerts); alewife (Alosa pseudoharengus), American
sliad (Aloso sal idissinua), and striped bass (Morose .saxatilis) in this creek. 'therefore, protecting
water mtality ig rsgpntial, Arrordinw to the man nrovirle variable biifferc arr nrnv;rlorl ih,ii
include portions that are loss than 50 feet.
We recommend that the following conditions be incorporated into the permit to reduce
impacts to fish and wildlife resources.
Adequate riparian habitat and watershed protection is essential to the continued survival
of rare aquatic species. In order to reduce stream impacts, while retaining some rneasure
of wildlife habitat, we recommend a too -foot undisturbed, native, forested buffer along
perennial streams, and a 50-foot buffer along intermittent streanms and wetlands for the
present operation and any fixture expansions. Maintaining undisturbed, forested buffers

along these areas will reduce impacts to fish and wildlife resources, water quality, aquatic
habitat both within and downstream of the project area, and help prevent the extirpation
of endangered and threatened species. In addition, these buffers will provide an adequate
travel corridor for wildlife species. Whereas, a grassed buffer, patliculai-ly fescue, is a
vegetated buffer but will not provide the necessary and highly valuable functions as
discussed for forested buffers. These buffers are particularly important its preventing
sediment from entering aquatic resources in the area. We recommend that the applicant
keep the 100-foot buffers in mind when planning the site design for any future
expansions.
Water discharges from the project site should be proportional to the size of the receiving
stranm so that the hydrology of the stmam is not altered. and all s}innld rmmnly
with NPDES permit requirements. In particular, 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 numerous detrimental effects on
aquatic resources including destruction of spawning habitat, suffocation of eggs, ana
clogging of gills of aquatic species.
Proposed seeding mixtures include sericea lespedeza, which is invasive, and fescue,
which nrovide very little value to wildlife. We encourave the aoolicant to consider usinu
seed mixtures that+are beneficial to wildlife in their reclamation plan, such as native,
warm season grasses. An exact seeding mixture would need to take into account soil
types, moisture, pl1, and degree of slope of areas to be stabilized. We also recommend
that native hardwood species be added to the pine plantings. In addition, for relatively
shallow sediment basin reclamation, we recommend these areas be reclaimed as wetlands
where practicable. We refer the applicant to Mike Scruggs, District Wildlife Biologist at
(252) 904--3537 for additional information and ideas on reclamation for wildlife.

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 facility requires the use ofWater to produce clean stone. The water is ptullped from the secondary
settling pond to the plant. Through the use of spray bars and screens the raw material is washed and sized. This
Water IS aISO Used at al I transfel- p0111tS tllroughollt the plant to allay dust. Once used, the water Is collected In a series
ol'ditches and pipes and directed back to the primary settling pond. Once the water has flowed through the primary
and secondary settling ponds, most of the silt -sired particles have settled out, and the water is ready to be reused in
the plant. Due to evaporation and loss thl-ough material sales, it is necessary to periodically supplelllcnt the closet!
Circuit system with WatCl- from the pit. No chemicals will be used for the process.
b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or waste water from the mine or plant as a point discharge to
the waters of the State'? Yes X No . lfyes, hri�fly clesc ripe the nuture of"lhe clischcrrge and
locale all pl'opoSL'd dlschai-ge points (along w lh their- methocl of Stab li=atlon) on your m!1?L'
All water encountered dturin.�' the mining operations is storm water with some tllinor amounts of Vr01111d water
encountered during pit excavation. "]'his water is considered fresh water and does not need to be treated.
The water encountered ill the pit is Used for dust Sllppl-CSS1011 and lvashmg the Stolle ill prOCIIICC a high quality clean
aggregate. Excess water is discharged off the property through NPDI7_,'S 1'ermit.
Will any part ol'the proposed mine excavation(s) extend below the water table?
Yes X No . 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 withdrmval rate in gallons per day: locale all exis1irw hells on the mine
nrap(.5) 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.
From analysis ol'the core retrieved front the exploratory drilling and the existing pit, the granite appears to have very
little primary permeability. The oil[), means in which water may be transported will be through secondary
permeability (I.e. joints, fractures, shears, etc.); however, from core analysis, RQD values are in the 85u/o to 95%
range, below the weathered rock interface, and these joints and I-ractures do not appear to be interconnected. The
surfaces 01' the fractures and joints show very little evidence of mineralized coatings as a result of water
transportation. Removal ol'the overburden has very little effect on shallow wells in the area since the pit for the most

part sits oil a topographic high and very little of' the recharge area for shallow wells will be disturbed. The
overburden materials in the pit area are silts, clays, and sand, Which WOLIId Inhibit grOUndwatel• migration.
d. If you answered yes to any Of the above gLICStIO11S, provide evidence that you have applied for or
obtained the appropriate water quality permit(s) (i.e., non -discharge, NPDI-1,S, Storinwater, etc.)

4. a. Will the operation involve crushing Or ally other air contaminant emissions?
Yes X No if yes, indicate evidence that you have applied for or obtained all air
quality permit issued by the Division of Air Quality or local governing body.
Crabtree Quarry presently operates under Air Quality Permit Number 04149102
b. How will dust from stockpiles, haul roads; etc., be controlled?
A wet suppression sysie:m for the plant, as filed with the Division of environmental Management Air Quality
Section, is the primary control for fugitive dust in the plant area. Spray bars and nozzles at transfer points in the
processing plant allay any particle emissions in the plant and stockpile areas. Also, most aggregate prOdL1Cts are
washed stone gradations with little Or no fines. Flaul roads and site access roads are also monitored for fugitive dust.
As the need arises, a water wagon sprays water along these routes to further inhibit any dust from becoming
Cull V111111..
A buffer will be required between any alining activity and ally milling permit bOLlndary Or right -Of -
way. It may be an UnC,r-cavated buffer (no excavation, belt roadways, berms and erosion &
sedimentation control measures may be installed within It), all Undisturbed bUffCr (no dlStLlrba11CC

Present, Hanson maintains a much larger buffer zone, which is bermed and wooded. The present mining plans also
show that much of this buffered area to remain for the next ten-year extension of'our permit. This is not to in Lilly
way Inhibit Flanson's right to LISC the property outside of the 50' undisturbed Buffer Zone ifthe appropriate plans
are submitted to and approved by the State. It is Hanson's practice to maintain as much as possible in passive use as
well as buffer between our operations and adjoining property owners.
b. A 11111111n1.1m 50 IOOt wide U11d1Sturbcd buffer will be required between ally land diStUrbing activities

locations and iviclths on the urine nmp(y).

All water courses, impoundments and associated buffers are delineated on plans. See attached sheets for specific
information.
6. it. 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.
In order to prevent landslides anti/or slope failure adjacent to adjOining properties, cut slopes have been graded an
slopes no steeper than 1 ``/z: 1 and ti 11 slopes no steeper than 2:1. In addition, all slopes have been seeded as soon as
possible after grading has been completed and treated in accordance with the revegetation plan contained herein.
PLII-thermorc, buffer zones of varying widths have been maintained in areas of existing vegetation, and no mining
Shall Occur within 50 feet of existing property lines.

At Crabtree Quarry, the slope has historically been '/4:1 in the hard rock excavations -with no bench. This slope has
been adequate throughout the history ofthis site since the deposit is relatively uniform and does not have a tendency
to slide. The operations on the south side of Crabtree Creek will have'/4:1 slopes with a 15' wide bench every 35' of'
vertical height.
See attached mine plans for generalized locations. l'or more specific details see previously approved plans and

7. Describe other methods to be taken during ]Vining to prevent physical hazard to any neighboring dwelling
house, public road, public, commercial Or industrial building from any mine excavation. Louac all such
struclures on the mine meal) if they care within 300 feel of any proposed excavalion,
TO prevent any physical hazard to neighboring houses or buildings, it has been Hanson's policy to restrict all of its
pit operations outside of a 300' zone. Hanson has always Used the most modern methods in existence to enAlre the
safety ofits employee's and neighbors. Hanson makes it a practice to use non -electric blasting techniques to reduce
the possibility of inadvertent blast initiation during thunderstorms. Bach shot is scismographed at the closest
structure to the site ofthe blast to ensure compliance with approved blast limits. All ofour shots are initiated onhr as
the weather permits so that file inversions will not reflect the blast wave onto adjoining property. Hanson also leaves

4. An electronic initiation system may be substituted for the novel system if it is deemed a better overall system.
Since blasting is an integral part of this operation, each blast is monitored with a seismograph to ensure that peak
particle velocities and peak overpressures are within limits established by local, state and federal authorities. A
recording of each blast is made and is sent to a third party consultant t-or analySIS L1SIllg the RCSpOI1SC SpeCtrLlm

As additional precautions, some preliminary seismic studies have been conducted onsite to determine the preferred
direction ol'blasting and pit development to further lessen the possibility of excessive peak particle velocities dlLring
the actual alining conditions.

Oils Ite storage ol'gasoIInc, diesel fueI, and Val'IOLIS oils and greases is necessary to facllltate the operation ofvarious
types of equipment heeded to produce crushed stone. The bulk storage tanks for fuel, gasoline, and oil are in
approved above ground storage tanks surrounded by a berm that would contain any leakage or spillage. Grease and
other oils not required in bulk quantities are stored in 55-gallon metal dI-L1111S in bermed areas or at the oil/water
separator pit. All empty grease and specialty oil drLIMS are returned to the manufacturer at frequent intervals to
alleviate the need for a disposal area.
1). RI.CLAMATION PLAN
Describe yOLIl- intended plan for the final reclamation and subsegUCllt 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
infin-m(ition must he illustrcrlecl on a recictmcrtion mct1) and must corre.vpond directly with the inf wlnotion
proviclecl on the mine map(ti). In adclition, design information, including lyplcal ci-o.1s-sections, of tiny
pei-monew channels to be consirucle'cl cis Imu-1 of the i-ec1cuncltlon plcin anti the locallon(s) ofrill
channels must be 117cllcated on the reClclma1 O17 M017.
The mine excavation will be used fora source of fresh water supply. "phis supply will be tilled by storm sinter run
off once the mining operation has been completed. The plant site will be reclaimed and seeded with grass and
vegetation. Subsequent land use will be lakes, grassland, and wildlife area.

2. Is an excavated or illlpoLlnded body of water to be left as a part of the reclamation'? Yes X No
if yes, ilhistrcrte the locolion of lute hoclv(.$) of ivcuui- on the reclamalion map cmd provide, a scaled

Illeasured from the normal low water table elevation, unldss information is provided to indicate that a more
shallow water body will be productive and beneficial at this site. Will the body(s) ofwater be stocked with
fish? Yes No X If' Yes, specify species.
It is Hanson's intent to convert the pits into fi-esh water supply ponds. upon cessation of. mining activities. '['his
water will be sold to local utilities as the need for fresh water arises.
.3. Describe provisions for safety to persons and to adjoining property in all completed excavations in rock
Including what kind ol'pernlanent barricade will be left. Acceptable permanent barricades are appropriate
fencing, large boulders placed end -to -end, etc. Constrlrclion delail.s and locations of all permanent
barricades mast he shoivn on the i-ecicnnution 17W17.
As a safety precaution, a 25-foot wide safety bench between the rock/soil interface will be left. Additionally, a
permanent fence will be erected around the pit to prevent unauthorized entry. Danger signs will be placed at regular
intervals around the pit perimeter to warn of open pit.
4. Indicate the method(s) of reclamation of overburden, refuse, spoil banks or other such on -site mine waste

As overburden is placed in designated areas, it is spread and compacted by dozer and haul units. Slopes in waste
area (s) (anti Lill embankment areas) will be graded to 2:1 or flatter and revegetated as soon as possible to prevent

erosion. Drainage on top of waste area (s) will be established to prevent pooling and stagnation of water, and to
control storm water runoff. final reclamation ofwaste area (s) will include final top and slope dressing (if required)
and revec etation according to the revegetation plan as contained herein.
5. a. Describe reclamation of -processing facilities, stockpile areas, and on -site roadways.
Reclamation ill these areas will occur in two stakes: first, the plant and stockpiles will be removed from the site,
Iollowred by the scarifying of these locations and revegetating according to the revegatation plan as contained herein.
In addition, any site access roads not utilized in the end use development plan will be treated in the same manner,
The erosion contl•ol structLll•es in these areas will be cleaned out and left in good working condition, since they will
be incorporated into the end use development of the site.

As indicated on the plans, a temporary scrap storage area has been developed at this site, and the scrap metal,
which is developed as a reSLilt of. mining activities, is stored ill this area until an independent recycler of'these
products picks them up. No chine waste products are disposed of at this site.
The fuel oil storage tanks and oil and grease tanks are stored above ground and have built in spill containillent

Subject: Crabtree Quarry - Hanson's response
All,
This blurb was in the N&0. It's from Hanson and briefly describes what's going on right now with the rezoning attempt
and Hanson's assertion that the quarry has caused no damage to neighboring homes. FYI:
htt www.newsobserver.com 2011 01 06 901811 no-nei hborhood-dams e-from- uarr .html
Those in opposition have their "stop the quarry" website(http_(blockthequarry.org/welcome.html) , and the article
above says that Hanson has created its own website to put information about the rezoning proposal:

No neighborhood damage from quarry
In response to John Jones' Dec. 24 Point of' View article ("Rocked by a quarry plan"), I would like to
provide a different perspective from the company that owns the Crabtree quarry.
For more than 60 years, crushed stone from our quarry along Crabtree Creek has been used to build
roads, schools, hospitals, churches and other public and private structures in Raleigh. Based on what
our geologists tell us, the quarry has enough granite on its current property on the north side of the
creek to continue providing materials for similar projects for at least another 20-25 years, and we
continue to explore options to sustain our operations in the longer term.
Recently an opportunity became available to purchase land west of our existing pit which, if rezoned
and permitted for mining, would allow us to relinquish our rights on the south side of the creek, move
the processing plant farther from the creek in the future and donate substantial properties that would
benefit our entire community. These properties would provide a major greenway connection, a
parking lot to provide access to the greenway, and a nature preserve park. In addition, if the rezoning
is approved and we quarry to the west at a higher elevation, the existing pit could be used for flood
control of Crabtree Creek during major storm events.
We have listened to the community's concerns and we welcome opportunities to answer any questions
about our operations, especially in regards to our blasting activities. Our operations are stringently
regulated and the fears expressed by Jones and others are not based in fact. We typically blast only
once every two weeks or so. livery blast is precisely managed and monitored to ensure it is well
below the permitted levels so that damage to surrounding property does not occur.
While vibrations from a blast can be felt by some of our neighbors, no one has presented evidence
that the quarry operations have damaged their property. The fact that so many homes have been built

detrimental impact on the area. The proposed pit, if allowed on the property to the west, would never
be closer than 500 feet from the nearest home and would be buffered by both berms and existing
trees.
We believe in maintaining an open and transparent relationship with the community and we have
established a website, wN-vw.crabtrecquaril.com, to provide information about our rezoning proposal.
We have also agreed to establish a neighborhood advisory council, implement an arbitration process
to address any claims, and compensate any landowners who can show that their property has been
damaged by the quarry operations. In short, we are committed to being a good corporate citizen and a
good neighbor.

RE: Environmemtal Impact Study Request
Hi, Janet
There is no Environmental Impact Study in our file for this quarry. Environmental documents are not required as part of
a mine permit application. As you know, environmental documents are only required when public monies are used for a
project. The only thing I see in the file is a 1988 document tailed "Crabtree Creek Watershed — Quarry Pit Alternative to
Structure 25."
I have a feeling that Ms. Sanders may be interested in the most recent proposals that Hanson is setting forth for
expansion of the quarry. At this time, they are still dealing with the zoning issues locally. The Land Quality Section has
not received a formal request for modification of the mining permit.
I would be glad to make our file available to Ms. Sanders for review if she would like to schedule an appointment. Or,
she could contact John Holley (919-791-4200) to schedule a time to view the file at the Raleigh Regional Office off
Barrett Drive. Again, there will not be information specific to Hanson's most recent activities to rezone adjacent land.
Although we are aware of it, they haven't come to us yet with a request for modification so there are no details about
that in our file. I believe they want to get any zoning and local issues worked out before bringing a request to us.
Thanks,
Ashley

Quarry plan brings neighbors out in droves
So many people turned out to vent about a proposed quarry expansion in North Raleigh that the
Northwest/Uinstead Citizens Advisory Committee had to rent a church to hold its monthly meeting this week.
About 200 people packed the CAC's meeting at the Korean Baptist Church on Ray Road on Tuesday to weigh
in on a plan that would allow a mining company to expand Crabtree Quarry near Umstead State Park. The plan
has irked many residents who live near the quarry.
The CRCs are neighborhood groups that make policy recommendations to the City Council, mostly on zoning
issues. Northwest/Uinstead CAC usually meets at the police station on Glenwood Avenue. Lven in the church,
some had to stand in the back.
The meeting started at 7 p.m. and shut down two hours later, but only because the church was rented until 9
p.m.
"It could have been endless at the rate it was going," said Jay Gudeman, the CAC chair. The group meets again
at the Korean Baptist Church on .Ian. 1 1 to vote on the issue.

Neighbors fight proposed expansion by Raleigh
marry
Posted: 5:32 p.m. yesterday
Updated: 6:39 p.m. yesterday
People who live near a rock quarry off Duraleigh Road in northwest Raleigh say they are concerned
about plans to expand the site.
Residents of the Delta Ridge subdivision have posted signs in their yards and launched a website io
express their opposition to Hanson Aggregates' plan. The company is seeking city approval to rezone 100
acres from residential to industrial use.
"You've got vibrations that we feel regularly. In fact, in our home, things have fallen down from the
blasting," said Ricky Stevens, president of the Delta Ridge I-lotneowners Association.
"So, all of a sudden, to have an expansion that is going to come up within 150 feet of the back row of our
townhomes is very disturbing for our residents," Stevens said. "When they come cioser, the blasting is
going to come closer, and that's going to affect us even more."
Sig Hutchinson, a community advocate who
backs Hanson's plans, said the expansion would
benefit the area. The company plans to extend
the Crabtree Greenway through the site to
Unistead State Park, add 50 parking spaces for
park visitors, create a nine -acre nature preserve
and allow the city to use the quarry for flood
control, lie said.
"This is really a win -win situation for the
community — a rare opportunity to put some
things to rest, to solve soiree of the city's
problems, to benefit the citizens," Hutchinson said.
.et i #
Sf i •f4 ..
The expansion proposal was expected to be discussed at a Northwest/Urnstead Citizen Advisory Council
meeting at 7 p.m. Tuesday at First Korean Baptist Church, on Ray Road.

Roads. They are looking to rezone about 170 acres for industrial use.
Residents in that area have put up signs in front of their homes and along the roads, and they've also
created a Web site.
"There's a lot of people that haven't been aware of what Hanson's trying to do," said resident Kelly
Cherry, who lives in the Delta Ridge neighborhood.
Cherry said they have concerns about noise and damage from rock blasting, lowered property values,
commercial traffic and damage to the environment.
In a statement on Tuesday, Chris Ward, General Manager of Hanson Aggregates Southeast, said "We
also believe this approach provides the community with near term benefits including the donation of
property for a greenway connection with Umstead Park, the development of a nature preserve along the

RE: Blasting Complaint
Crabtree Quarry
Permit No. 47-01
Wake County
Dear Ms, Hollandsworth:
Michael F. Easley, Governor
William G. Ross Jr., Secretary
Our office has completed its review of Hanson Aggregates Southeast's blasting information,
including blast reports and seismograph recordings, related to the August 13 through 27, 2007 blasts
conducted at its Crabtree Quarry. It was found that Hanson Aggregates Southeast was in compliance
with the blasting requirements of its mining permit during the period in question.
All peak particle velocities, a measurement of ground vibration with units in inches per second
(ips), were well below the maximum allowable limits specified in Hanson Aggregates Southeast's mining
permit. More specifically, all recorded values were at or below .135 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.
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 I have answered your concerns
adequately. If you should have any additional questions or concerns, please contact me at (919) 733-
4574.
Sincerely,
44�x `�dL

No, i am not saying that. I want the machine there incase we need it. Three permenant machines were
strategically placed around Crabtree's pit to accommodate where activity was years ago. Activity is now
beginning in a new area of the pit and I want our basis to be covered. The amount and exact locations is
unknown at this time while we develop a mine plan.

Can you verify this? Thanks.

Judith,
Enclosed you will find the relevant paperwork to Hanson, Crabtree Quarry blast
complaint on 8/21/07. Our Vibra-Tech representative was in the area on this day and
offered to go speak with Ms. Hollandsworth. Upon his return, he felt as if she was
satisfied with his explanations. We offered to call her before each blast and notify her
which she gladly excepted. Ms. Hollandsworth is now added to the list for pre-
notification and will be called for each and every blast. If any additional information is
needed, please do not hesitate to call.
Thank -you,
David Morgan

Wake County / Neuse River Basin
Dear Mr. Sprinkle:
This office recently received a complaint directed at blasting practices conducted at the
above referenced quarry. According to the complainant, Cynthia Hoilandsworth, the vibrations
produced from the blast at the Crabtree Quarry on August 21, 2007 caused her house to
shake.
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 on August 21, 2007,

for one production shoot conducted immediately before and one production shot after the blast
in question for this office's review.
It is recommended that you discuss this matter with Ms. Hollandsworth. Her address
and telephone number are as follows:

RE: Blasting Complaint
Crabtree Quarry
Permit No. 92-03
Wake County
Dear Mr. Stanley:
Michael F. Easley, Governor
William G. Ross Jr:, Secretary
Our office has completed its review of Hanson Aggregates Southeast Inc.'s blasting information,
including blast reports and seismograph recordings, related to the September 4 through October 1, 2007
blasts conducted at its Crabtree Quarry. It was found that Hanson Aggregates Southeast Inc. was in
compliance with the blasting requirements of its mining permit during the period in question.
All peak particle velocities, a measurement of ground vibration with units in inches per second
(ips), were well below the maximum allowable limits specified in Hanson Aggregates Southeast Inc.'s
mining permit. More specifically, all recorded values were at or below .070 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.
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 I have answered your concerns
adequately. If you should have any additional questions or concerns, please contact me at (919) 733-
4574.
Sincerely,
r

•
(* = denotes fields where input data is needed)
Permit No.*: 92-03
Permittee*: hanson aggregates
Mine Name*: crabtree quarry
Blast Report No.*: 33
Peak Particle Velocity Check:
Date of Blast*: 09/11/07 Time of Blast*: 11:26
D = Distance to closest offsite occupied structure (ft)! D* = 1630,00
W = Maximum pounds of explosives per delay (pounds): W* = 287.00
SD = Scaled Distance: SD = DIW110.5
V = Peak Particle Velocity (inches per second):
(*max. limit in mining permit is: V = 1.0 ips)
SD = 96.22
V = 160 (SD)^-1.6 V = 0.11
Based on known distances from the blast to the seismograph and any additional location,
the expected vibration level can be estimated at the second location as follows:
V = Particle velocity measured by the seismograph (ips): V* = 0.04
IDS = Distance from blast to seismograph (ft): DS* = 1524.00
d = Distance from blast to second location (ft): d* = 1630.00
PPV = Theoretical peak particle velocity at the closest offsite occupied structure (ips):
PPV = V(DS/d)^1.5 PPV= 0.0389
Airblast (Overpressure) Check:
P = Unconfined Airblast/Overpressure (psi): P = 82 (DANA0.33)A-1.2 P = 0.107773
To convert (psi) to (dBL): (P/2.9 x 10"-9)log x 20 P = 151.40
AB = Confined Airblast/Overpressure (dBL): AB = P (dBL) - 35 dBL (for quarry situation)
(*max. limit in mining permit is: AB = dBL)
AB= 116.40

Explosives Column Check:
(this is a very approximate method based upon numerous assumptions;
specific densities may vary greatly depending upon the type and manufacturer
of the explosive products used in the shot; must consider each explosive used;
refer to Dupont Handbook for actual SPD, otherwise use the following:)
Assumptions (per Ireco):
If "straight" emulsion is used, use SPD (specific density) = 1.20
If a "blend/slurry" is used, use SPD (specific density) = 1.25
If "straight" anfo is used, use SPD (specific density) = 0.85
Ratio between explosives:
Total pounds of Explos. #1 * = 10000.00
Total pounds of Explos. #2* = NIA
Ratio between explosives = NIA
Average pounds of explosives used per hole (pounds)* = 144.00
Breakdown of average pounds of explosives per hole due to ratio:
Explosive #1 = 10000.00
Explosive 42 � N/A
SPD = Specific densities for each explosive:
SPD for Explos. #1* = 1.20
SPD for Explos. #2* = NIA
HD = Hole Diameter Used in Shot (inches): HD* = 4.50
LD = Loading Density (pounds per foot of column): LID = SPD(.34)(HD)A2
LID for Explos. #1 = 8.26
LID for Explos. #2 = NIA
Explosive column height for each explosive (feet):
Explos. #1 = 17.43
FxnlnS It = NIA
—"r---. -2 --.. .
Total explos. column height = 17.43
Stemming height used in shot (feet)* = 6.00
Total height of explosive column(s) and stemming in the hole = 23.43

V = Peak Particle Velocity (inches per second): V = 160 (SD)^-1.6 V = 0.13
(*max. limit in mining permit is: V = 1.0 ips)
Based on known distances from the blast to the seismograph and any additional location,
the expected vibration level can be estimated at the second location as follows:
V = Particle velocity measured by the seismograph (ips); V* = 0.07
DS = Distance from blast to seismograph (ft): DS* = 1521.00
d = Distance from blast to second location (ft): d* = 1521.00

Instructions:
1. The shot layout checklist shall be completed by the Blaster and approved by the Superintendent (or designee) prior to
shot being drilled.
2. Shot diagram shall be drawn on Page 2, and shall include desired hole depth information beside the hole location.
Note face locations on the diagram.
3. Driller shall number holes as they are drilled and all information on drill log must match the hole number. All informa-
tion must be logged as the hole is drilled. Blaster may number holes at operations where Driller is comfortable with
Blaster doing so.

RE: Blasting Complaint
Crabtree Quarry
Permit No. 92-03
Wake County
Dear Mr. Morgan:
Michael F. Easley, Governor
William G. Ross Jr., Secretary
This office recently received a complaint directed at blasting practices conducted at the
above referenced quarry. According to the complainant, Mr. William W. Stanley, the vibrations
produced from the blasts at the Crabtree Quarry for several months caused his house to
shake.
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 during September 2007,
including any seismograph recordings made. Please make sure the records include
distances for the seismograph locations and stemming length per hole and type.
It is recommended that you discuss this matter with Mr. Stanley. His address and
telephone number are as follows:
4101 Balsam Drive
Raleigh, North Carolina 27612

Dear Mr. Pickle:
In response to your e-mail correspondence dated January 7, 2008, please find enclosed three
copies of the revised plans for the containment pond for the Crabtree Quarry. The following
comments and revisions to the plan were prepared by Mr. Allen King, a Lehigh Hanson employee
and professional engineer licensed in the State of North Carolina.
Comments and revisions to the plans are as follows:
A. The slope as shown on the Section A -A on sheet #1 (--245 top and 225 toe) is the
existing slope from the plant down to Crabtree Creek. The portion of the slope from
elevation 225 to 240 has been in place since the construction of the plant approximately
in the late 1950's. This area has been constructed of structural fill, rock and rip -rap. Over
the course of the years this slope has established with volunteer vegetation. To modify
this slope would require permitting from the Corp of Engineers and Division of Water
Quality. The back slope of the basin is under the plant area and, therefore, not possible
to change.
The interior slope of the basin was designed utilizing the grade elevations as surveyed.
As a rule of thumb, for embankment stability, the sum of the horizontal component of the
internal & external slopes should equal 5 or greater (meaning if the interior slope is 2:1
the exterior slope should be 3:1 or greater). Using the existing exterior slope estimated by
Mr. Pickle (1.5:1) the interior slope should be constructed at 3.5:1 slope. The details and
plans have been modified to reflect the change in the slopes. As shown, this change
moves the center line of the basin a_pproximatelV 4 feet towards the plant. This would
make an insignificant change in the volume of the basin.
B. The detail showing the EPDM membrane has been revised to show a reinforced pond
liner membrane 45 mil. thick.
C. The pump float settings have been revised as follows:
Pump On & Pump Off elevation equals 241.0, the emergency Pump Off elevation will be
been set at 243.5.
The float settings are such that the "pump off' elevation allows for the basin to be
dewatered without the sump being completely drained. The "pump on" elevation has
been set for 241.0.

Given the small basin size and the estimated Q25 of 11,22 CFS, with these float settings
the pump (capacity is 3500 GPM) will cycle as; basin fill time for 35 minutes and pump
run time for 80 minutes.
The upper 'pump off' elevation of 243.5 has been set at the same elevation as the crest
of the emergency spillway. This has been set such that in the event that water surface
elevation of Crabtree Creek rises to the point such that it begins to back flow into the
basin the pumps will be shut off so as to not allow for creek water to be pumped into the
pit. As the creek water level drops, power to the pumps can be restored and pumps
automatically restarted.
D. The upslope limit of the basin terminates at the foundation of the plant structure. Since
the installation of the basin, during large storm water events, water does back up and
spread under the plant. Although the water does back up under the plant the 3500 GPM
capacity pumps keeps this to a minimum.
E. Acknowledged and revised.
We trust that this information is sufficient for your review and approval. Should you have
additional questions feel free to contact me.
Sincerely,
Robert Snyder

permittee in the permitted mining operation, by virtue of a sale,
lease, assignment or otherwise, the Department may release the
permittee from the duties imposed upon him by the conditions of his
permit and by the Mining Act with reference to the permitted
operation, and transfer the permit to the successor operator, provided
that both operators have complied with the requirements of the Mining
Act and that the successor operator agrees to assume the duties of the
permittee with reference to reclamation of the affected land and posts
a suitable bond or other security.
In the event that the Department determines that the permittee or
permittee's successor is not complying with the Reclamation Plan or
other terms and conditions of this permit, or is failing to achieve
the purposes and requirements of the Mining Act, the Department may
give the operator written notice of its intent to modify, revoke or
suspend the permit, or its intent to modify the Reclamation Plan as
incorporated in the permit. The operator shall have right to a
hearing at a designated time and place on any proposed modification,
revocation or suspension by the Department. Alternatively and in
addition to the above, the Department may institute other enforcement
procedures authorized by law.

RE: Blasting Complaint
Crabtree Quarry
Permit No. 92-03

Dear Mr. Lineberry:
The review has been completed on the shot records you
previously submitted for the -August 29, 1996, September 11, 1996
and September 18, 1996 blasts at the Crabtree Quarry. Your company
has been found to be in compliance with the blasting requirements
of your mining permit. I have already notified the complainant,
Ms. Jill Heaton, of our findings.
However, please be advised that Blasting Conditions No. 8.A.
and 8. of Mining Permit 92--03 requires that the operator not. exceed
1.0 inch per second and 128 dbl at the immediate location of the
closest occupied dwelling. Thus, by monitoring at this location,
whenever possible, your company will have a true indication of its
compliance with these permit conditions for each blast event.
Thank you for your continued cooperation and detailed
investigation of this complaint.
Sincerely,

RE: Blasting Complaint
Crabtree Quarry
Permit No. 92-03
Wake County
Dear Ms. Heaton:
Our office has completed its review of Benchmark Carolina
Aggregates' shot records related to the September 11, 1996 blast at
their Crabtree Quarry as well as one (1) production shot conducted
immediately prior to and after this shot. It was found that
Benchmark Carolina Aggregates was within the blasting requirements
of their mining permit.
All peak particle velocities, a measurement of grbund
vibration with units in inches per second (ips)', were well below
the maximum allowable limit of 1.0 ips. specified in Benchmark
Carolina Aggregates' mining permit. More specifically, all
recorded -valueswere at or below -.eight. percent .of. the maximum. limit
of 1.0,ips. According to extensive research by the U.S. Bureau of
Mines and others, particle velocities below 0.5 ips under the worst
geologic conditions and below 2.0 ips for typical geologic
conditions effectively eliminate the possibility of any structural
damage.
All airblast readings, a measurement of the atmospheric
pressure wave .(overpressure.).with units in psi or dBL, were below

Carolina Aggregates' mining permit and well below the U. S. Bureau
of Mine's 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, and the U.S. Bureau of Mines' standard already
includes a safety factor.

According to the response sent to this office by Mr. Don A.
Lineberry from Benchmark Carolina Aggregates, blasting procedures
on September 11, 1996 at the site varied from the normal blasting
procedures. The blast was fired at 4:35 pm, which is later than
usual. Also, because of limited manpower, the seismograph was set
up at the office building onsite instead of at the closest offsite
occupied dwelling. The company has been made aware that
seismographic monitoring of all blasts at the site should be done
at the closest occupied offsite dwelling, whenever possible.
Thank you for your interest and patience in this matter. r
hope that we have answered your concerns adequately. If you should
have any additional questions or concerns, please advise at (919)

on September 11. 1996
Agareaates
The records from August 29. September 11 and September 18, 1996 do
not show anv violations or apparent abnormalities. Airblast
recordings were well below the permit's blasting condition limits,
both measured and calculated.
I tend to aaree with Mr. Lineberrv's assessment of the situation.
His assessment stated that blasting procedures deviated from the
normal routine and may have caused apprehension. First, the blast
was conducted at an abnormal time. Secondly, monitoring was not
conducted at the nearest offsite dwelling. With no electricity,
hurricane debris everywhere and limited water supply, I feel
certain that the residents in the area were sensitive to the blast.
Weather conditions did not appear to be a problem during the
blasting periods.
The company, however, should have monitored the blast as required
in the permit conditions and the response letter should contain
language that brings this fact to their attention.4,/

Judy,
I gave them to you or Tony (I can't remember which one now!) with a
sticky note before I left for my Europe trip so that one of you could
call Jim Sprinkle/Benchmark while I was out and respond to her
complaint (before the Mining Commission Meeting on 10/16!). Please
check with Tony (or Susan's "to file" pile) if you don't have it and
it's not in the mine file.
Thanks! (as a double check, I looked on my desk and I don't have it)

Do you have any notes on the original complaint from Ms. Heaton? I
need the background info for the file.
Thanks,

Blast Complaints
Dear Mr. Davis:

November 7, 1996
LLANQUALITY SECTIO f4
Enclosed are the blast reports requested by your office after receiving a complaint from
.fill Heaton. I apologize for the delay in getting these to you. In trying to get these reports from
Vibra-Tech Engineers, 1 learned that since .lay Rodgers left, they are being sent to Atlanta for
review by the regional manager prior to being mailed to us. At some point in this process, UPS
lost track of two boxes of reports and it took quite some time for them to be located.
I have sent the reports for the blast on September 11 which generated the complaint and
reports for the blasts immediately before and after that one. There were two deviations from our
normal procedures on September 11. The first was the time that the shot was fired and the
second was that the seismograph was not taken off site to monitor the blast. Wednesday.
September 1 1 was five days after Hurricane Fran. The heavy rain had left 10 to 12 feet of water
in our pit. All the material that we had shot up to send to the plant was not accessible and we had
to drill and shoot a shot on a higher level of the pit before crushing operations could resume. On
September 11, the only people on site to load the shot were the drilling and blasting foreman, the
plant foreman and the drill operator; as all other employees had been sent home the previous
Friday. Heavy rain subsequent to Hurricane Fran had washed material into many of the drill
holes which had to be cleaned out before loading. The shot took much longer than normal to
load and, consequently, was not fired until 4:35 pm. Our usual procedure is to shoot between
1:00 pm and 2:00 pm. The second deviation was also created by only having three people to
conduct the security, signaling and actual firing of the shot. There was no one available to take
the seismograph off site. However, the seismograph was in our office, which is closer to the
blast than any area of Oak Park, was plugged in and in the monitor mode. Vibra-Tech's report
confirms this and that the ground vibration and air overpressure levels were below those required
to trigger the seismograph.

affected by the permitted mining operation. This permit is expressly
conditioned upon compliance with all the requirements of the approved
Reclamation Plan. However, completed performance of the approved
Reclamation Plan is a separable obligation, secured by the bond or other
security on file with the Department, and may survive the expiration,
revocation or suspension of this permit.
This permit is not transferable by the permittee with the following exception:
If another operator succeeds to the interest of the permittee in the permitted
mining operation, by virtue of a sale, lease, assignment or otherwise, the
Department may release the permittee from the duties imposed upon him by the
conditions of his permit and by the dining Act with reference to the permitted
operation, and transfer the permit to the successor operator, provided that both
operators have complied with the requirements of the Mining Act and that the
successor operator agrees to assume the duties of the permittee with reference
to reclamation of the affected land and posts a suitable bond or other security.
In the event that the Department determines that the permittee or permittee's
successor is not complying with the Reclamation Plan or other terms and
conditions of this permit, or is failing to achieve the purposes and
requirements of the Mining Act, the Department may give the operator written
notice of its Intent to Illodi fy , revoke or suspend the pc".rrri i t, or i tt i nton} to
modify the Reclamation Plan as incorporated in the permit. The operator shall
have right to a hearing at a designated time and place on any proposed
modification, revocation or suspension by the Department. Alternatively and in
addition to the above, the Department may institute other enforcement procedures
authorized by law.

Re: Process water pond modifi-
cation at Crabtree Quarry
Dear Mr. Davis:
Please find enclosed plans and calculations, in
duplicate, for the enlargement of the closed circuit process
water settling pond at Crabtree Quarry. This project is
being undertaken to increase the storage capacity of the
primary settlement pond and to divert stormwater flow away
from the pond. This will serve to increase the efficiency of
the settlement pond while decreasing the chance of
overtopping the pond by stormwater during flood events.
1V aC:4uulptisll this, two small settlement IJclsllls are
being installed upstream of the process pond and one
stormwater runoff diversion ditch is being constructed. Once
the diversion ditch and basins are constructed, the process
water pond will be enlarged to the dimensions as indicated on
the plans. Any excess dirt which is excavated from the ponds
and ditches will be hauled offsite to local construction
projects.
Nello Teer Company has contacted the Division of
Environmental Management by phone and they have indicated
that since this was a small increase in pond size, their
department would not require a review of this project as long
as the land auality section was reviewina it for erosion and
sediment control. Teer, therefore, has not sent a copy of
the modification to the non -discharge permitting group.
Should you have any questions regarding this mine
modification, please do not hesitate to call.
Sincerely,
NELW L. TEE COMPANY
