The tracts were annexed to the Town of Holly Springs and ultimately rezoned to accommodate the installation of visual screening berms, overburden storage piles, corresponding sediment basins and traps, and storage of construction equipment. Hanson is hereby submitting a mine modification application to add these tracts to its mine permitted acreage and to install screening berms, overburden storage piles, and related sediment basins as shown on the M&ECP-2 Mine Map. Notifications have been mailed via certified mail and receipt request to the adjacent property owners to the following tracts to be added to the mine permit. Please see the copies of the notification affidavit and notices w/maps included in the mine application. Tract Name Owner Nores PIN # REID Address Kenney Hanson Aggregates SE LLC 19.60 0637378113 0047596 6200 Rex Road Powell Hanson Aggregates SE LLC 19.20 0637363113 0047692 6120 Rex Road Powell Hanson Aggregates SE LLC 12.66 0637463580 0056 553 6212 Rex Road Powell Hanson Aggregates SE LLC 54.81 0637565912 0056853 6312 Rex Road Secondly, Hanson is requesting to expand its existing mine excavation pit into its southwestern corner of the existing mine permitted property. This expansion will increase the mine excavation by about 43 acres. Included as a step to take prior the actual southwestern pit expansion is to slightly expand or widen the pit entrance enough to allow for either two (2) lanes of traffic or one (one) lane of traffic plus an overland conveyor. Please see the portion of haul road and area next to the primary to be expanded into the mine excavation pit acreage and the southwest pit expansion. `4 _'vcr „r�.,e n, eas % 1 ` .

The retention ponds 1 & 2 and associated streams and wetlands were determined to be excusive due the fact that all were permitted in the original mine permit as water treatment structures. Since there have been numerous changes in plans, the USACE has requested that S&EC, our contracted agent, prepare a JD request covering all aspects of the project. Until such a JD is obtained, Hanson is submitting a finalized map showing the USACE and DWR determinations and email correspondence from James Lastinger with the USACE. As a minor part the pit expansion, Hanson is requesting that it be permitted to extend the northern pit limits to a line parallel and fifty (50) feet from the intermittent stream high water mark. This will allow for a better pit design with less inward corners. Please see the below comparison between existing (gray dashed line) and proposed (black dashed line). po. is '�.;wd,r�y Trap u $$ IE mgl BYrIY �{Earsryl ' SDOu ,s 'swer,di4.� CAvarlFSb s �CnrA Qan ^•^- fig _. aDOXV % pP V fiFl plpo ' RM prt ...

The features are (1) Feature F exclusion as an ephemeral channel and (2) WI wetland that is less than 0.10 acres and could be excluded. Depending on those calls, Hanson will either impact the features with overburden pile construction or avoid the features by flagging a 50-foot undisturbed buffer around each feature. Please see the below portion of the M&ECP-2 Mine Map showing the subject features. W13 Wetland = 0.08 acres Due to the north -to -south size of the property, we have shown the pit expansion on the M&ECP-1 Mine Map and the addition of the Powell and Kenney tracts on the next page, M&ECP-2 Mine Map. To better locate and identify the overburden piles (OB Piles), ID Numbers were assigned and placed on the maps. Below is a table identifying the OB piles, the drainage areas and associated sediment basins. Calculation for the Basins 21 thru 28 can be found in the attached E&SC Modifications packet prepared by Andrew Mericle with Draper Aden Associates. A table with the sediment basin specifications for Basins 10 and 21 thru 28 can be found in the top right corner of X-4 Details Mine Map.

With natural ground elevation at EL = 305 feet and the approved 320 feet of maximum mining depth, the final mine floor should be EL = 15 feet below sea level; not EL = 75 feet as indicated on the previously approved mine maps. Hanson has been working with DELMR to get the mine maps from all our sites to agree with the approved mine applications during subsequent mine modification submittals. The X-2 Mine Map has been revised to reflect the previously approved 320 feet of maximum mining depth from the application by showing the final mine floor at EL = -15 feet. A complete set of mine maps has been included to reflect the attached mine permit modification application.

THIS APPLICATION WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED COMPLETE WITHOUT ALL RELEVANT ITEMS BEING ADEQUATELY ADDRESSED ON THE MINE MAPS. APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT C. PROTECTION OF NATURAL RESOURCES Describe in detail the sequence of events for the development and operation ofthe mine and reference the sequence to the mine map(s). Attach additional sheets as needed. The pit is developed in the normal fashion for a mature granite operation. Areas adjacent to the existing pit are stripped to rock by dirt haulers or our contractors. This disturbed area is made to drain back to the pit or to approved erosion control structures. The sequence of existing pit, stripped areas and future pit areas is shown on the submitted Mine Map. For this modification, Hanson plans to expand its active pit limits to the southwest. At first, the expansion will only involve enough area to widen the existing one lane haul road to a wider one lane with a conveyor line or a two-lane haul road into the pit. In the future, to expand the pit into the southwest comer of the property, both Retention Ponds #2 and #3 will be taken out and wastewater re-routed through a single proposed Retention Pond #4, and then, routed around the proposed pit and discharged out the existing NPDES -001 discharge outfall. Also, for this modification, Hanson has acquired properties north of the existing permitted quarry mainly for the purpose of constructing berms and wastepiles followed by stabilization. Sediment basins and other erosion control measures have been designed for the construction of these berms and are shown on the attached mine maps. Calculations have been included with the mine modification application. 2. Describe specific erosion control measures to be installed prior to land disturbing activities and during mining to prevent offsite sedimentation (include specific plansforsediment and erosion control for mine excavation(s), waste piles, access/mine roads and process areas), and give a detailed sequence of installation and schedule for maintenance of the measures. Locate and label all sediment and erosion control measures on the mine maps) and provide typical cross-sections/construction details of each measure. Engineering designs and calculations are required to justify the adequacy of any proposed measures. Erosion control measures are noted in the attached Mine Map. These structures are all designed according to the specifications shown in the Surface Mining Manual distributed by the Land Quality Section. Details for all existing structures have been submitted and approved through past submittals. Any new erosion control structures as part of this renewal are detailed in the supporting documents 3. a. Will the operation involve washing the material mined, recycling process water, or other waste water handling? Yes X No ❑. If yes, briefly describe all such processes including any chemicals to be used. The crushed stone production process requires water for washing the sized stone products at the wash screen to remove dust and fines for the eventual use in asphalt and ready mix concrete. The water is recycled through a closed circuit process water settling pond system. Wash water from the plant is collected and delivered to one of two primary ponds, where most of the fines are removed by simply settling out of suspension. These ponds operate in sequence, with one being out of service at any one time for dipping out of the collected fines using a drag line or long reach excavator. The water then flows to the secondary pond where settling of additional finer particles takes place. The secondary pond also serves as a fresh water pond, and the clean water is pumped back to the plant for re -use in the stone washing process. Due to loss to evaporation from the ponds and loss into the stone products, the water balance is periodically restored by supplementing with groundwater pumped from the quarry as part of the dewatering process. Water is also used for dust control at the facility. Water is used at the processing plants by introduction through sprays at crushers and at conveyor transfer points to control dust emissions. It is also used in the APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT water truck to control dust emanating from haul roads, stockpiles, and the shot rock pile in the pit. Water used in dust suppression is usually pulled either from the quarry dewatering or from the secondary settling/fresh water pond. At the present time, no chemicals are used in any of these processes; however, there are times it is necessary to use DWQ approved flocculants in the recycle system to help achieve a cleaner source of water for the plant washing and dust control. It may also become necessary to use chemicals such as calcium chloride or organic surfactants on the haul roads and crusting agents on the stone product stockpiles. b. Will the operation involve discharging fresh or waste water from the mine or plant as a point discharge to the waters of the State? Yes X No ❑. Ifyes, briefly describe the nature of the discharge and locate all proposed discharge points (along with their method of stabilization) on your mine map(s). We currently operate under the NPDES COC No. NCG020087 General Permit that covers the discharge of excess groundwater and stormwater from the quarry dewatering process, as well as any excess water from our closed circuit settling pond system. The discharge water passes through a separate settling pond prior to being discharged into intermittent conveyances reaching Jim Branch Creek. The NPDES Permit also covers stormwater from the mine sites through multiple point source discharge points. c. Will any part of the proposed mine excavation(s) extend below the water table? Yes X NoEl. If yes, do you intend to dewater the excavation(s)? Yes X No ❑. If yes, what impact, if any, will mine dewatering have on neighboring wells? Estimated withdrawal rate in gallons per day: 2020 average was recorded as 420,000 alg s/day. Locate all existing wells on the mine map(s) that lie within 500 feet of the proposed excavation area. Provide data to support any conclusions or statements made, including any monitoring well data, well construction data and current water withdrawal rates. Indicate whether the proposed mine locale is served by a public water system or private wells. Granite mines do not typically cause a problem with wells on adjacent properties. This site does not have a history of such problems. The amount of groundwater contained in the pit discharge is unknown. A large amount of water discharged is stormwater collected in the pit sump. No wells are located within 500 feet of the existing excavation area, and there are no wells located within 500 feet of the proposed southwest pit expansion. Dwellings around the quarry are served by water supply wells or public water supply. Removal of the overburden has very little effect on shallow wells in the area since the pits, for the most part, sit on a topographic high and very little recharge area for shallow wells will be disturbed. The overburden materials in the pit areas are silts, clays, and sand which inhibit groundwater migration. No impact to wells within 500 feet of the quarries have been reported. d. If you answered yes to any of the above questions, provide evidence that you have applied for or obtained the appropriate water quality permit(s) (i.e., non -discharge, NPDES, Stormwater, etc.) from the Stormwater Program. In addition, the applicant is required to register water use with the Division of Water Resources, Ground Water Management Branch, if the operation withdraws more than 10,000 gallons per day and needs a capacity use permit from the Division of Water Resources, Ground Water Management Branch, if the operation lies in a capacity use area and withdraws more than 100,000 gallons per day. The Holly Springs Quarry operates under NPDES COC No. NCG020087 General Permit. Water withdrawals are reported annually by April I" to the Division of Water Resources under Facility ID No. 0340-0010. 4. a. Will the operation involve crushing or any other air contaminant emissions? Yes X NoEl. If yes, indicate evidence that you have applied for or obtained an air quality permit issued by the Division of Air Quality or local governing body. APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT NC Air Permit No. 06313R 16, issued by NCDENR DAQ is in place for quarrying. A complete system of water sprays and/or water carry-over strategies are in place for all crushers and conveyor transfer points to control particulate emissions from these sources. b. How will dust from stockpiles, haul roads, etc., be controlled? A water truck is used to wet the haul roads and stockpiles as needed to control fugitive emissions from these sources. a. A buffer will be required between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of- way. It may be an unexcavated buffer (no excavation, but roadways, berms and erosion & sedimentation control measures may be installed within it), an undisturbed buffer (no disturbance within the buffer whatsoever), or a combination of the two, depending upon the site conditions. Note that all buffers must be located within the mining permit boundaries. How wide a buffer will be maintained between any mining activity and any mining permit boundary or right-of-way at this site? A minimum buffer of 25 feet is recommended, although a wider buffer may be needed depending on site conditions. Show all buffer locations and widths on the mine map(s). It is anticipated that a minimum 50 foot undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any mining activity and existing property line or highway right of way. An additional 50 foot unexcavated buffer will be maintained and may include visual screening via visual berm or tree plantings. Buffer locations and widths can be viewed on the attached mine maps. The buffer locations and widths are shown on the Mine Map and Details Map b. A minimum 50 foot wide undisturbed buffer will be required between any land disturbing activities within the mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands unless smaller undisturbed buffers can be justified. Depending on site conditions, a buffer wider than 50 feet maybe needed. How wide an undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any land disturbing activities within the mining permit boundaries and any natural watercourses and wetlands at this site? Show all buffer locations and widths on the mine map(s). A minimum 50-11 undisturbed buffer will be maintained between any land disturbing activities and any natural watercourses and wetlands on this site. The attached plans have been previously approved and show specific details relevant to buffers at each location. 6. a. Describe methods to prevent landslide or slope instability adjacent to adjoining permit boundaries during mining. Minimum 2 horizontal to 1 vertical slopes or flatter for clayey material and minimum 3 horizontal to 1 vertical slopes or flatter for sandy material are generally required, unless technical justification can be provided to allow steeper slopes. To prevent landslides and/or slope failure adjacent to adjoining properties, cut slopes will be graded no steeper than 1-1/2 to 1, and fill slopes will be graded no steeper than 2:1, and proper compaction procedures will be utilized on fill slopes. All slopes will be stabilized by seeding as soon as possible after grading has been completed. Necessary erosion controls will be used to prevent slope failure by concentrated stormwater runoff. Excavation or fill will not generally occur within 100' or 50' respectively of any adjoining property boundary or right of way except for the installation of visual screen berms. For this submittal, plans have been included for the installation of visual screen berms and overburden piles on the recently acquired Powell and Kinney tracts. Regarding the southwest pit expansion, perimeter visual screening berms were installed more than 30 years ago along Cass Holt Road, and the trees are fully grown, vegetation is well established, and the berms are stable. 0 APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT b. Provide a cross-section on the mine map(s) for all fill slopes (berms, wastepiles, overburden disposal areas, etc.), clearly indicating the intended side slope gradient, installation of any benches and/or slope drains (with supporting design information) if needed, and the method of final stabilization. See attached previously approved mine plans for generalized locations and specific details. For this submittal, for the newly acquired properties to the north, cross sections have been included for the planned perimeter visual screening berms and proposed overburden piles with diversion berms directing run-off to corresponding sediment basins. Cross sections AA and BB been revised to reflect the southwestern pit expansion. See X-2 Mine Map. c. In excavation(s) of unconsolidated (non -rock) materials, specify the angle of all cut slopes including specifications for benching and sloping. Cross -sections for all cut slopes must be provided on the mine map(s). The maximum slope within the pit excavation will be 1-1/2:1 in unconsolidated overburden interface. See attached drawings as well as previously approved mine plans for detailed sections. d. In hardrock excavations, specify proposed bench widths and heights in feet. Provide cross -sections of the mine excavation clearly noting the angles of the cut slopes, widths of all safety benches and mine benches, and the expected maximum depth of the excavation. At the Holly Springs Quarry, all benches are mined on a % to 1 slope with bench heights of 40 to 45 feet and catch benching widths of at least 20 feet. See attached drawings as well as previously approved plans for detail sections. 7. Describe other methods to be taken during mining to prevent physical hazard to any neighboring dwelling house, public road, public, commercial or industrial building from any mine excavation. Locate all such structures on the mine map if they are within 300 feet of any proposed excavation. Hanson has always used the most modem and up-to-date mining methods in existence to insure the safety of its employees and neighbors. Sufficient buffers and proper berm construction are left to minimize the impact of excavations on adjoining properties and structures. 8. Describe what kind of barricade will be used to prevent inadvertent public access along any high wall area and when it will be implemented. Vegetated earthen berms, appropriate fencing and adequate boulder barriers may be acceptable high wall barricades. A construction detail/cross-section and location of each type of barricade to be used must be indicated on the mine map(s). Sufficient buffers and proper berm construction ensure minimum impact to adjoining property owners. All quarry shots are designed to prevent excessive vibrations. Additionally, during each shot event, a seismograph recording will be taken from the closest off -site occupied structure, if access is allowed, in relation to the shot location. Depending upon production requirements, the event occurs one to three times a week. Structures within 300 feet are noted on the mine map. 9. Are acid producing minerals or soils present? Yes ❑ No X. If yes, how will acid water pollution from the excavation, stockpiles and waste areas be controlled? Mine dewatering analytical testing has shown no signs of acid water pollution. 10. a. Describe specific plans (including a schedule of implementation) for screening the operation from public view such as maintaining or planting trees, bushes or other vegetation, building berms or other measures. Show the location of all visual screening on the mine map(s) and provide cross -sections through all proposed berms or proposed spacing, sizes and species for tree plantings. Existing trees, terrain and berms effectively screen our operations from nearby roads and homes. Trees and/or vegetation have been planted on the berms and in such areas as to promote future long-term screening and soil stability. 0 APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT b. Could the operation have a significantly adverse effect on the purposes of a publicly owned park, forest or recreation area? If so, how will such effects (i.e., noise, visibility, etc.) be mitigated? There are no publicly owned parks, forest or recreation areas adjacent to the quarry mine excavation area (the pit); however, as shown on the map, the Trinity Soccer Academy owns and operated a soccer facility west of and adjacent to the newly acquired Kenney tract. The acquired Powell and Kenney tracts were rezoned in 2019 to construct visual screening berms, overburden piles, corresponding sediment basins, and storage of miscellaneous construction equipment; and no mining excavation is allowed. Screening berms and overburden piles will be stabilized following their construction. There should be no issues with noise, visibility, etc. There is also a tract adjacent to the acquired Powell and Kenney tracts that is owned by the Town of Holly Springs and a tract owned by the Wake County Board of Education, but there is no disturbance on either property to date. 11. Will explosives be used? Yes X No ❑. If yes, specify the types of explosive(s) and describe what precaution(s) will be used to prevent physical hazard to persons or neighboring property from flying rocks or excessive air blasts or ground vibrations. Depending on the mine's location to nearby structures, more detailed technical information may be required on the blasting program (such as a third -party blasting study). Locate the nearest offsite occupied structures) to the proposed excavation(s) on the mine map and indicate its approximate distance to the proposed excavation Ensign Bickford or comparable none] blast initiation system is used to inadvertent blast initiation especially during possible thunderstorms. An electronic initiation system may be substituted for the nonel system if it is deemed a better overall system. Weather conditions are monitored continuously before, during, and after loading of each shot to insure that the shot will not be initiated under adverse weather conditions that might cause blast emissions to drift in an unacceptable direction or might prevent proper venting of the blast wave away from adjoining properties. ANFO premixed powder is used in dry holes. A cap -sensitive high explosive emulsion is used for wet holes and initiation of the ANFO. Since blasting is an integral part of this operation, each blast is monitored with a seismograph to insure that peak particle velocities and peak over pressures are within the limits established by local, state, and federal authorities. Hanson works closely with consultants (often Vibratech) to monitor and review each blast and seismographic recording. Along with the seismograph results, fragmentation and flyrock conditions are constantly monitored, and the blasting program, including direction of blasting, hole size and pattern, stemming, etc. are adjusted as needed to insure best and safest results. 12. Will fuel tanks, solvents, or other chemical reagents be stored on -site? Yes X No ❑. Ifyes, describe these materials, how they will be stored and method of containment in case ofspill. Indicate the location(s) of all storage facilities on the mine map(s). Onsite storage of diesel fuel, gasoline, and various oils and greases is necessary to facilitate the operation of various equipment needed to mine and process crushed stone aggregates. The bulk storage tanks for diesel fuel, gasoline, and oils are approved aboveground storage tanks having concrete secondary containment. Any major spill or leak from these tanks would be contained within the concrete containment structures. Greases and other oils are stored in aboveground storage tanks and 55-gallon drums and are stored in a concrete containment structure. Used oil is collected from equipment and picked up for offsite recycling by properly certified contractors. Empty oil and grease barrels are returned to the supplier or cleaned and placed into the metal scrap bin for offsite recycling. The Holly Springs facility has a Spill Prevention Control & Countermeasures (SPCC) Plan that requires monthly inspections of all bulk fuel and lube storage units. All employees are trained on a regular basis in the proper handling of petroleum products, managing and cleaning of spills, and proper disposal of rags, absorbent materials, and any contaminated soils. 10 APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT D. RECLAMATION PLAN 1. Describe your intended plan for the final reclamation and subsequent use of all affected lands and indicate the sequence and general methods to be used in reclaiming this land. This must include the method of reclamation of settling ponds and/or sediment control basins and the method of restoration or establishment of any permanent drainage channels to a condition minimizing erosion, siltation and other pollution. This information must be illustrated on a reclamation map and must correspond directly with the information provided on the mine map(s). In addition, design information, including typical cross -sections, of any permanent channels to be constructed as part of the reclamation plan and the location(s) of all permanent channels must be indicated on the reclamation map. The mine excavations will be allowed to fill to a normal level by groundwater and stormwater runoff from adjoining areas whenever the mining operations are completed. The resulting deep water lake may be used for recreation, and potentially as a fresh water supply. The plant sites, stockpile areas, and overburden disposal areas will be graded and seeded with grasses suitable for establishment of grasslands and wildlife areas. Process and pit water settling ponds will be filled and similarly reclaimed to grasslands unless they are a part of the overall site drainage and reclamation plan. See attached reclamation drawings for specific details 2. Is an excavated or impounded body of water to be left as a part of the reclamation? Yes X No ❑. If yes, illustrate the location of the body(s) of water on the reclamation map and provide a scaled cross-section(s) through the proposed body(s) of water. The minimum water depth must be at least 4 feet, measured from the normal low water table elevation, unless information is provided to indicate that a more shallow water body will be productive and beneficial at this site. Will the body(s) of water be stocked with fish? Yes ❑ No X. If yes, specify species. It is Hanson's intent to convert the quarry into a fresh water lake upon cessation of mining activities. In addition, the fresh water pond , as shown on the attached drawings, will remain. A large percentage of the mining area will be left as impounded water. In some areas, overburden will be backfilled to an elevation several feet above the water table, and seeded according to schedule. See attached drawings for specific details and cross sections. 3. Describe provisions for safety to persons and to adjoining property in all completed excavations in rock including what kind of permanent barricade will be left. Acceptable permanent barricades are appropriate fencing, large boulders placed end -to -end, etc. Construction details and locations of all permanent barricades must be shown on the reclamation map. As a safety precaution, a 20-foot wide safety bench will be left at the rock/unconsolidated soil interface. A permanent fence will be erected around the completed quarries to prevent unauthorized entry, and danger signs will be posted at regular intervals along the fence to warn folks of the open pits. Large boulders placed end -to -end may be placed around all excavations in lieu of fencing. 4. Indicate the method(s) of reclamation of overburden, refuse, spoil banks or other such on -site mine waste areas, including specifications for benching and sloping. Final cross -sections and locations for such areas must be provided on the reclamation map. As overburden is placed in designated areas, it is spread and compacted by dozer and haul units. Slopes in waste areas will be graded 2:1 or flatter and vegetated as soon as possible to prevent erosion. Erosion control measures and runoff conveyances will be established as the wastepile develops and then maintained throughout the process until final reclamation is achieved. Drainage on top of the waste areas will be established to prevent pooling and stagnation of water and to control runoff. Final reclamation of waste areas will include final top and slope dressing as required followed by seeding in accordance with the attached revegetation plan. See attached drawings for specific detail. 11 APPLICATION FOR A MINING PERMIT a. Describe reclamation of processing facilities, stockpile areas, and on -site roadways. Reclamation in these areas will occur as follows. First, the product stockpiles will be sold down. Then the processing plants will be dismantled and removed from the site. Any remaining piles, waste piles, and areas graded for plant layout and operation (including ramps to the primary stations) will be graded 2:1 maximum slope but generally 3:1 or flatter. Finally, these areas will be scarified and seeded according to the revegetation plan. Any site access roads not utilized in the end use development plan will be treated in the same manner. Any erosion control structures in these areas to be incorporated into the end use development of the site will be cleaned out and left in good working condition. b. Will any on -site roadways be left as part of the reclamation? Yes X No Ifyes, identify such roadways on the reclamation map and provide details on permanent ditch line stabilization. Main paved roads into the existing stone processing area will remain for access and future development purposes. The road through the existing plant site to the former plant area will remain and will be graded, including side drainage ditches, and stabilized with rock. 6. Describe the method of control of contaminants and disposal of scrap metal, junk machinery, cables, or other such waste products of mining. (Note definition of refuse in The Mining Act of 1971.) No off -site venerated waste shall be disposed of on the mine site without prior written approval from the NC Department of Environmental Quality, Division of Energy, Mineral, and Land Resources and either the Division of Waste Management (DWM) or local governing body. If a disposal permit has been issued by DWM for the site, a copy of said permit must be attached to this application. All temporary and permanent refuse disposal areas must be clearly delineated on the mine map(s) and reclamation map, along with a list of items to be disposed in said areas. As previously approved, temporary scrap and used equipment storage areas have been developed at this site. The scrap material and used equipment which accumulate as a result of mining and processing activities are stored in these areas until sold to an independent recycling contractor. A scrap bin is maintained on site for disposal by recycling of small metal scrap. Tires are recycled through the various tire suppliers. 7. Describe your plan for revegetation or other surface treatment of the affected areas. This plan must include recommendations for year-round seeding, including the time of seeding and the amount and type of seed, fertilizer, lime and mulch per acre. The recommendations must include general seeding instructions for both permanent and temporary revegetation. Revegetation utilizing only tree plantings is not acceptable. Recommendations can be sought from: a. Authorized representatives of the local Soil and Water Conservation District; b. Authorized representatives of the NC Forest Service, Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services; c. Authorized county representatives of the North Carolina Cooperative Extension Service, specialists and research faculty with the Colleges of Agriculture and Life Sciences and Forest Resources at North Carolina State University; d. North Carolina licensed landscape architects; e. Private consulting foresters referred by the NC Forest Service, Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services; f. N.C.
